Chapter 256: Early Dynasty

Three days have passed in the blink of an eye, and it is the day of the palace examination list.

Before the morning drum sounded, it was another dawn morning.

It was still dark outside the window, and Liu Chenxing had already gotten up as usual, cooking in the kitchen while reciting vigorously.

As the saying goes: don't read the mouth for three days, and don't do the hand life for three years.

Although the imperial examination should not be retaken again by accident today, the imperial examination is really completely over.

But when he first entered the career, he started from a low-level official position.

In order to obtain the official rank, one must pass the selection examination of the officials, that is, body, speech, writing, and judgment.

body, take its physical appearance; words, take their words dialectically; book, take its model and be beautiful; Judgment, take its liberal arts and sciences.

Therefore, putting aside the theory of appearance and eloquence, those who are qualified to be officials must also have good calligraphy and literary knowledge before they can be awarded official positions.

Under the "baton" of this official system, the government and the opposition are "good at reading and writing", which is simply a "learning" officialdom.

Liu Chenxing also has to continue to study, of course, he has also developed the habit of learning, and he will be tired if he doesn't study or practice calligraphy for a day.

Especially the day after the palace exam, she began to follow the teacher Jiang Mo to learn calligraphy, really listening to your words is better than reading for ten years, she can't wait to be immersed in practicing calligraphy for twelve hours a day for the past two days, and only food and making money can make her mind.

Like today's morning food, you could have gone to the door of the fang to eat ready-made, but now the weather is getting warmer day by day, and it is not very suitable to eat mutton soup again.

There is no frying pan, but the soup pot can be used as well.

Brush the bottom of the pot with a thin layer of oil, pour the mixed flour on it, and the thin layer will make a spring roll skin kang good.

After a quarter of an hour, a dozen thin spring roll wrappers were baked.

As for the side dishes wrapped in spring rolls, it's even simpler.

Eating hot pot must be potato flour and bean sprouts, at this time there is no sweet potato, and the flour can't be made, but there are soybeans.

With soybeans, you don't have to worry about no bean sprouts, soak the soybeans in water, soak them, then pour out the water, cover them with a shade cloth, and then within a few days, the soybean sprouts will come out.

As the pioneer of hot pot in this era, and even more so a hot pot lover, how can there be no bean sprouts at home?

The bean sprouts are the same, the cucumber is shredded, the soaked shiitake mushroom is shredded, the soaked papaya is shredded is the same, and then the roasted duck brought back from the teacher Jiang Mo last afternoon, the meat is torn off and shredded with the skin, and it is a side dish with four vegetables and one meat.

In the morning, drink the millet porridge boiled in a clay pot to nourish the stomach, if you feel that the millet porridge is too bland and tasteless, eat a bite of Hebei old vinegar celery, and finally spread out the spring rolls, put the bean sprouts, cucumber shreds, mushroom shreds, fungus shreds, and duck shreds into the spring rolls together, pour a spoonful of soybean soy sauce, wrap the spring rolls in long strips, and bite them down, you can eat her craftsmanship is really good, the spring roll skin is strong, and the side dishes are delicious, the two are chewed together in the mouth, fragrant and refreshing, full of spring flavor.

The uncles and nephews all have good appetites, and they ate a bowl of millet porridge for each person, and they also divided up more than a dozen spring rolls.

After eating the morning food, the uncle and nephew rushed out of Yongchongfang in the first wave of people in the first wave of people and rushed to the Danfeng Gate of Daming Palace.

Although today is not a big court meeting every Monday or Friday, the empress wants to announce the list of the first palace examination in today's early dynasty, which symbolizes that the status of the imperial examination has been greatly improved, which is a small milestone.

So, I saw that the sky was still dark blue overhead, and even the moon was still hazy and reluctant to leave, but on the way to Daming Palace, there were already civil and military officials riding horses.

Of course, there are also officials who walk like Liu Chenxing's uncle and nephew, but there are very few of them, and they are all petty officials in blue and blue official robes.

Two legs will definitely not be able to run on four legs, and when the uncle and nephew walked to the Danfeng Gate, the eastern sky had already revealed the white of the fish belly, and the light red glow seemed to bloom from the Danfeng Gate more than ten or twenty meters high.

At this moment, the gray-tiled and red-walled Daming Palace seemed to be under the spreading glow, and gradually unraveled the mystery of the night.

Outside the Danfeng Gate, the black pressure was full of officials waiting for the court.

The Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu wrote in the seven-character ancient poem "Danqing Presents General Cao Ba": "A good general has a virtuous crown on his head, and a big feather arrow on his waist", referring to the clothing of civil and military officials in the Tang Dynasty.

The official robes of this era are the same as the official robes of the Tang Dynasty, the civil and military officials are very recognizable from the official robes, the civil official robes are embroidered with birds, which are quite elegant temperament, and the military official robes are embroidered with animals, showing brave spirit.

Therefore, it is very clear that the officials outside the Danfeng Gate can be roughly divided into two groups, one group is the civil officials wearing embroidered bird patterns who have a tacit understanding to stand on the left side of the Danfeng Gate, and the other group is the military attachés wearing embroidered animal patterns who have the ambition to occupy the right side of the Danfeng Gate.

This is the big camp, and there are several smaller camps inside.

Liu Chenxing doesn't know most of the officials here, and he doesn't know how to divide the small camp, but nine times out of ten, he is similar to the company staff in his previous life, and one department stands together.

Liu Wensu is now from the seventh grade right to fill the que, belonging to the Zhongshu Province.

Uncle Liu was like this, after arriving at Danfengmen, he took them to a group of officials from Zhongshu Province in the civil official team on the left side of Danfengmen.

Today's civil and military officials will be so complete, all because of their twenty-eight lifters, and the topics discussed by everyone are naturally inseparable from the palace examination.

Jia Zhang, a member of the Zhongshu House in a light scarlet official uniform, was the same examiner this year, and when their uncle and nephew walked over, there were officials who belonged to the Zhongshu Province who were scarlet, green, and green surrounded Jia Zhang, and asked who the first place in the palace examination was.

Jia Zhang, a scholar from the Chinese Academy, is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he is well versed in the truth that disaster comes from his mouth, so he naturally will not reveal a word.

When he saw Liu Wensu's uncle and nephew coming, he smiled at his colleagues: "The final marking and ranking of the palace examination are all decided by the empress herself, how can I know." However, the empress added a palace test, which was Liu Buque's advice. Liu Buque's niece Liu Jinshi is the first place in the provincial examination, so it stands to reason who the first place in the palace examination will be, Liu Buque should know best. “

There will never be a shortage of people in the world who pick up the high and step on the low, Liu Wensu was promoted to pick up the missing from the eighth rank right for two days, and without going through the transfer of the officials, he was directly promoted by the empress to fill the que from the seventh rank right, which shows that his holy family is long.

Regardless of whether he was envious or jealous in his heart, seeing Liu Wensu, a big celebrity in front of the current saint, came over, they all shifted their goals and stepped forward to compliment.
