Chapter 341: Changes in Beijing
Middle-aged middle-aged, although he did not rank six yuan like his son, it was also very beneficial to be able to rank third in the township examination.
Song Ercai went back to his hometown after the list was released.
It's rare to come back, and he meets the township test again, he must go back to celebrate.
In addition, Chang wanted to go back to see his father, so the couple planned to live in Pingyang for two months, and then return to Beijing to prepare for the exam after the New Year.
Song Tian had official business, and after he was busy with the township test, he came back with the imperial court.
The sixth year of coming to Beijing has been very deserted.
Although Ah Xiu asked his subordinates to do everything they should do, there was no one in the house, except for their family of four, who didn't even speak.
At the end of the first month, Lu Wei launched and soon gave birth to a daughter.
After that, it was a triennial examination, and Song Er took Chang to return from Pingyang, accompanied by Jiang Peng.
These two didn't know if they met halfway, but they got together anyway.
Jiang Peng came back at a good time, and he was very happy to know that he had another granddaughter.
In mid-February, the examination begins.
Song Ercai Township ranked third in the test, and there was no doubt that he passed the test, ranking in the forties.
It is not a problem to have this ranking of the April temple to try to get a jinshi.
Song Ercai is already satisfied, he can enter the palace once, become a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, and see the face of heaven up close, and he will have no regrets in this life.
April's palace exam was soon released, and Song Ercai won the first class jinshi, and then went to Guozijian to serve as a teaching assistant from the eighth grade, and it was no surprise that he was also teaching and educating people in the future.
Going to Guozijian was a vacancy that Song Ercai made up for by himself.
He is a first-class jinshi, and it stands to reason that he has a better place and future, but he thinks that his son is also in the court, and he has always been not interested in the affairs of the court, now that his dream has come true, it is better to teach and educate people according to what he thinks.
The Song family is very supportive of his decision, and Chang is also very satisfied with his current life and has no requirements for his husband.
In the blink of an eye, it was another two years.
Song Tian once again became the deputy examiner of the township examination, and went to Huzhou with the imperial court team in early July.
This is the second time he has set foot on this land, but the last time it was for disaster relief.
Song Tian didn't want to go this time, but the burden fell on his shoulders.
Before leaving, he made a special trip to Jiang Boyuan to drink, and handed over his parents, wife and children to him to take care of.
Jiang Boyuan held the wine glass and glanced at him, "That person is almost in a corner for us, what are you worried about?" β
Song Tian said uneasily: "I'm afraid that the fish will die and the net will break." β
Jiang Boyuan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "Don't worry, they are all people with wives and children, I know what to do." β
After Song Tian left, Jiang Boyuan sent his wife and children directly to the Song Mansion, and after that, he often stayed in the yamen and did not go there often.
Jiang Boyuan's position has not changed in the past few years, but he has been reused by Emperor Zhuang Wen everywhere.
The first two sons of the Jiang family have returned to the frontier, and their merits cannot be improved, and his future is not yet bright.
In mid-August, just as the state capitals and township trials began, a major event occurred in Beijing.
Emperor Zhuang Wen was assassinated during the autumn hunt and his whereabouts are unknown, there is no monarch in the dynasty, and there is chaos in Beijing.
On the night of the incident, the Imperial Forest Army sealed off the entire capital under the pretext of arresting the Assassins.
Song House.
It was late at night when Song Ercai came back.
When he entered the door, there was a small servant waiting, saying that no one in the family had slept, and they were all waiting for him in the main hall.
Song Ercai passed over and found that everyone was there except for the children.
Lu Wei was the first to stand up, looking too anxious.
This time Jiang Boyuan also went to the autumn hunt, and there is no news so far.
"Erlang, what's the situation outside?"
Chang's family is also frightened, the sky has changed in Beijing, and no one wants to be alone.
Song Ercai wiped the sweat from his forehead, "There are people everywhere who are questioning, it is impossible to get out of the city, these days the Heavenly Kingdom Eunuch is also closed, it is not easy to say anything else, let's stay in the house and don't go out." β
Song Ercai is not even qualified to go to the early dynasty now, and he knows nothing about those things in the court.
Ah Xiu twisted her eyebrows and said, "Dad, let's gather the guards in the courtyard first, I'm afraid something will happen at night." β
Song Ercai thought about it and nodded.
"You all go back to rest, and I'll take care of those things."
Song Ercai finished speaking and left quickly.
Ah Xiu wanted to comfort everyone, but when she turned her head, she saw Lu Wei's eyes red.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine."
Ah Xiu held the person and led her slowly to the backyard.
Lu Wei looked at the dark night outside and nodded her head.
It's useless for her to worry here, it's true to take good care of the two children and don't cause him trouble.
I believe that Boyuan Ji people have their own natural appearance.
The three of them went back to the hospital separately, but who could sleep at this time.
Ah Xiu went back to the room to look at the two children, and then brought a pot of hot tea and read a book on the low couch.
In the early hours of the morning, there was a chaotic shout of killing outside the hospital.
Ah Xiu closed the book and pulled the door out, and happened to meet Song Ercai who came in a hurry in the courtyard.
"Take the child to the dark room, it's already chaotic outside, and it is likely to affect us."
Song Tian hasn't moved his position for several years, and his rank is actually not high, but he is a celebrity.
"I see. Dad, don't stay outside, be careful. β
In Beijing, as long as there is a large mansion with a small area, there must be a dark room and a secret passage, in order to be at a critical juncture like now.
Ah Xiu quickly asked the maid and the nurse to hold the two children, carrying a few bags of gold and silver that had already been packed, and went to the dark room of the big kitchen at night.
This dark room is built under the large kitchen in the backyard, so that it is also convenient for replenishment.
Ah Xiu sent the two children to the door of the basement, turned around and went to pick up Chang and Lu Wei.
When everyone gathered in the basement, Song Ercai hurriedly came and brought food and cold supplies.
"No matter what's going on outside, don't come out."
Song Ercai finished speaking and turned around and left.
Chang stretched out his hand, wanting to say something, but the person had disappeared.
After Song Ercai left, he walked quickly to the outer courtyard, and wanted to go to the wall to see the situation on the street, but when he looked up, he saw a man in black standing on the wall of his house.
Song Ercai was startled, shouted for the guards, and began to flee to the other side.
He is a weak scholar who has never even held a knife, and it is a dead end to meet these people.
During this time, there were more than 30 guards in the front yard of the Song Mansion due to Lu Wei's presence, some of whom retired from Dali Temple, and their skills were very good.
Soon, someone rushed up and protected Song Ercai to retreat.
Those black-clothed people seemed to have come directly to the Song Mansion, and more than a dozen of them entered before and after, and their skills were very good.
In order not to reveal the location of the basement, Song Ercai did not hide over there, and stood with his own guards.
Seeing that several people in the nursing home died, at this time, another group of people came to the wall, but it was Tangshan and them on the other side of the embroidery building.
Tonight, there was chaos in Beijing, Tang Shan saw that some officials and lords were attacked, and he thought of bringing people over to see the situation, how could he think that it was the right time.
