The so-called six departments of Jinling City are the six departments of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers still retained in Jinling City after Emperor Chengzu of the Dasheng Dynasty moved the capital.

There is only one book and two squires in each department.

When the six yamen of Jinling City are written, they should sign the words "Jinling X Department".

Dasheng State exercised the double Beijing system, and Jinling City, like the capital, had six departments, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the General Administration Department, the Five Military Governor's Office, the Hanlin Academy, the Guozijian and other institutions, and the rank of officials was also the same as that of the Beijing Division.

The capital is located in Shuntianfu, and Jinling City is located in Yingtianfu, which is collectively called Erjing Mansion.

Although it is a double capital system, the six departments of Jinling City do not have much real power.

It's just an empty shelf.

Once any important minister angers the son of today, he will be "exiled" to Jinling City for retirement by this set of means of promotion and surrender.

This is also known as "out of sight, out of mind".

As long as people with brains think about it, they can understand that they are all "distributed" to Jinling City.

In the capital, which is far away from the center of power, what real power will those so-called six Shangshu have?

You must know that the closer you are to the emperor, the greater the power.

Otherwise, those eunuchs would not have had so much power.

Now Wang Mingyang, who has made great contributions, will be sent to Jinling City to serve as the secretary of the military department.

It is something that only a monarch like the Great Sheng Kingdom can do.

After all, the monarch of the Dasheng Kingdom braved the disapproval of the world, and even the heroes who had made great contributions to the country and the society were given a "click" regardless of the wishes of the people in the world.

What could they do more outrageously?

That is to say, the scholars are extremely obsessed with fame and fortune, otherwise who would go desperately to take the imperial examination and enter the so-called officialdom?

You must know that there is an old saying: "A companion is like a tiger."

If it weren't for fame and fortune, who would want to stay in a person who is suspicious by nature, who may wave the long knife in his hand at every turn, and kill the past with a "click" at you?

The reason why Huang Tinghui stepped into the road of the imperial examination was just to protect the people around him at first.

It's just that the people around him have slowly changed his ambition a lot.

At present, the official named Yan Song was originally a student of the Guozi Supervisor, and he and Wang Mingyang were on the same list.

However, Yan Song does not have the same background as Wang Mingyang, so he can only pursue the creed of "self-reliance" in officialdom.

Now that he has taken the little emperor's car, Yan Song said that he couldn't miss anything.

Don't look at the current cabinet minister Zhang Julu is still in power, but Yan Song, who is in the ministry, has already discovered the increasingly acute contradiction between the cabinet minister and the little emperor.

Prime Minister and Imperial Power!

The conflict between the two is inevitable, and since ancient times, the power of the prime minister has been suppressed by the imperial power in legal theory.

Although Zhang Julu, the first and auxiliary minister of the cabinet, has a high reputation, he is just a civil minister without military power after all.

Therefore, Zhang Julu can't be Cao Cao, and it is precisely because of this that as long as the little emperor is given time, Zhang Julu will definitely lose in the end.

Therefore, for Yan Song, it is naturally not difficult to make what kind of choice.

The only difficulty is how to sell well in front of this new master of his own, so that his future new master will remember that there is a guy named Yan Song among the courtiers who is loyal to him.

And just loyal to him alone.

……

Huang Tinghui didn't know anything about these battles in the court at this time, and he had no interest in learning about them.

After all, at this moment, Mo said that he was a small person, what about Wang Mingyang, the capital eunuch who controlled the soldiers and horses in the north?

As the governor of the frontier, Wang Mingyang, hasn't he become a pawn that people can play with wantonly?

"Squeak squeak......"

"Squeak squeak......"

"Squeak squeak......"

The carriage made a crisp sound rhythmically, but Huang Tinghui was lying on the carriage and fell asleep.

It was as if he was going to make up for all the sleep he had lost in the past few days.

Even on this rugged and bumpy road, Huang Tinghui was able to sleep extra sweetly.

This is really admirable.

Looking at Huang Tinghui's sleeping appearance, even Zhang Cheng was not very good at interrupting his sleep.

I don't know how long the carriage has been going, but at a place still some way from the capital, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Then there was a "crackling" firecracker explosion, and Huang Tinghui woke up from his sleep in a daze.

He stretched his waist, opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out, and what appeared in front of him were Lian'er, Lu Qiaosi, Lu Daoming's parents, and his Erzhu uncle and Erzhu aunt.

Before Huang Tinghui could react, he heard Lu Qiaosi's crisp and beautiful voice coming over, "Daddy, Daddy!" ”

"Daddy, Daddy, you're finally back, you're finally back, I want to die Josie, but I want to die Jos!"

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Woo woo woo ......"

Lu Qiaosi, who is usually very jumpy, looked at Huang Tinghui's appearance, her eyes were red, and tears couldn't stop sliding down.

Seeing the daughter who usually jumps out and pits herself at every turn, with a handful of snot and tears, Huang Tinghui's fatherly love suddenly flooded to the point of being out of control.

I saw Huang Tinghui hurriedly take two steps and hugged Lu Qiaosi in his arms.

He comforted Lu Qiaosi and said, "Little Qiaosi, isn't your father here?" ”

"What are you crying about?"

"Don't cry!" Huang Tinghui scratched Lu Qiaosi's nose and said.

"Hmm!" The little girl was extremely sad, after all, she heard that her father was on the battlefield, at first Lu Qiaosi didn't know what it meant to go to the battlefield, but later she knew that she might die if she went to the battlefield.

Luchos was immediately stupefied.

Now that his father appeared intact, Lu Qiaosi naturally put his worries behind.

I saw Lu Qiaosi holding his father's clothes tightly, and then wiping his snot and tears with Huang Tinghui's clothes.

Where is there a half-lady look.

Seeing Lu Qiaosi's appearance, Huang Tinghui couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

"Little Josi, you deliberately wiped your snot and tears on your father's clothes!"

"It's so bad!"

"Your father's clothes are stained by you!" Huang Tinghui pinched Lu Qiaosi's little face and said.

Hearing Huang Tinghui say this, Lu Qiaosi pursed his lips, "Who made Daddy an unconscious person, and made Qiao Si and his mother worry all day long!" ”

"I still know how to go home!"

"Humph!"

The little girl snorted very arrogantly, and everyone laughed when they heard this.

Huang Tinghui pinched Lu Qiaosi's little face twice, and then he looked at the little girl standing not far away.

"Lian'er!"

"But do you miss your husband?" Huang Tinghui asked suddenly in front of everyone.

The little girl just looked at Huang Tinghui, after all, she hadn't seen each other for so long, and she was also stupid for a while.

Hearing Huang Tinghui ask, she subconsciously nodded and said, "Hmm! ”

Soon, the little girl reacted, she is not the only one here now, so many people are here, and she has responded to her husband like this.

It's so shameless, thinking of this, the little girl shook her head desperately.

Seeing the little girl's such a cute performance, Huang Tinghui couldn't hold back for a while, and "poof" just laughed out loud.

"Lian'er, you're nodding and shaking your head again!"

"Is it or isn't it?" Huang Tinghui couldn't help but tease the little girl, anyway, Huang Tinghui was thick-skinned, he didn't care what others thought of him.

What's more, the people standing by his side at this time are all people who are extremely close to him.

Seeing Huang Tinghui laughing at the little girl like this, Uncle Erzhu, Aunt Erzhu and Lu Qiaosi's grandparents also laughed.

The little girl, who was already very thin-skinned, blushed in an instant, she lowered her head and said in a very small voice, "Husband, you are really bad!" ”

"Jing will bully Lian'er!!"

After whispering a few words, the roots of the little girl's ears turned red, and she didn't dare to raise her head to look directly at everyone.

Huang Tinghui still knew that the little girl was shy, he looked at everyone and changed the topic and said: "Uncle Erzhu, Aunt Erzhu, godfather, godmother!" ”

"How do you know I'm going back to Beijing?"

"Are you waiting for me here?" Huang Tinghui asked his strange and curious questions.

"Hahaha......"

"You've been too tired these days, and Zhang Cheng has been taking care of you by your left and right!"

"Several of Zhang Cheng's brothers are very good at riding, and they will ride back to the capital at least a day earlier than you."

"After all, we are all concerned about your safety!"

"So we also know from them that you are going back to Beijing!" Lu Qiaosi's own grandfather explained to Huang Tinghui, and he continued to say to Huang Tinghui, "We thought that there was a big victory in the north, and others didn't know who Huang Zisong was who guarded Zheng County, but we learned from Zhang Cheng's brother how dangerous the battle was these days!" ”

"Now that you have returned to Beijing triumphantly, others don't know your merits, so they won't come to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you!"

"Let's buy some firecrackers in total, just wait for you on the way back to Beijing, put a string of firecrackers on your way back to Beijing, catch the wind and wash the dust, and go to bad luck!"

"Welcome you back to the city!"

Hearing Lu Qiaosi's grandfather say this, Huang Tinghui realized why they knew their whereabouts in advance.

"The battle in Zheng County seems to be dangerous, but in fact, it is just thrilling!"

"Uncle Erzhu, Aunt Erzhu, godfather, godmother and Lian'er, you don't have to worry too much, didn't I come back well?"

Huang Tinghui had just finished speaking, Lu Qiaosi was a little dissatisfied, she muttered her little mouth, waved her little hand and said, "And me, and me!" ”

"And Little Joss, and Little Joss!"

Hearing Lu Qiaosi's expression of not to be outdone, Huang Tinghui pinched Lu Qiaosi's little face very dotingly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, Daddy missed one of the most important!" ”

"And my Joss!"

Seeing Huang Tinghui and Lu Qiaosi playing with each other, everyone also laughed.

At this time, the clouds of war had dissipated much with the withdrawal of the Mughals.

Everyone's mood at this time is naturally very relaxed.

Sitting in the carriage, the group of people quickly returned to the capital.

In the capital, Huang Tinghui has already purchased two large mansions.

Anyway, Huang Tinghui is not bad for money at the moment, but he doesn't have time to buy too many things.

It was Li Zisong's sister and Lu Qiaosi's grandparents who helped buy a lot of things, and it was only here that there was the style of a big family.

After walking into the mansion he had purchased, Huang Tinghui felt that he had gone to the wrong place.

In the mansion, many servants were busy.

It seems to have the style of a big family, which makes Huang Tinghui feel like a world away.

Sure enough, all evil money works in any era.

If you have money in your hands, you will live happily.

Huang Tinghui thought secretly.

"Tinghui, after driving for so long, you should be hungry, right?"

"I've already had people ready to eat, just waiting for you to come back!"

"All this food is steamed in the pot, and it's all hot!"

While speaking, Aunt Erzhu beckoned the servant to bring out the dishes cooked in the kitchen.

To be honest, Huang Tinghui is indeed a little hungry at the moment.

After all, Biansai is a bitter cold place, and it is good to deal with it if you have a stutter.

Especially in the process of marching and fighting.

In addition, Huang Tinghui has been exhausted during this period of time, and he has not slept well for a day or eaten a good meal.

When he first saw everyone, his face had lost a lot of weight, and the whole person had lost at least twenty pounds.

Now that I hear that there is food, I can't help but move my index finger.

Soon, the meals that had been prepared long ago were served.

It seemed that he smelled the aroma of rice, and Tang Zihu, who returned to the capital before Huang Tinghui, appeared in front of Huang Tinghui.

At this time, Tang Zihu was no longer the same as before, he looked at the table full of food, and sat down unceremoniously.

During this time, he followed Wang Mingyang's side, although he had not personally been on the battlefield, but it was also an experience for Tang Zihu.

After the tempering of the war, Tang Zihu has become much more mature than before.

Even Huang Tinghui was also a little impressed by Tang Zihu.

"Tinghui, you don't know!"

"I've lost more than a dozen pounds during this time!"

"Lord Wang is capable, but the food is extremely shabby!"

"It's much harder to get through it like this!"

Tang Zihu complained while holding the vegetables and sending them to his mouth.

It can be seen that this guy is really suffocated.

"This dish is delicious, much better than the food in the inn!"

"Sure enough, I still have a good mouth with you!"

"There are more and more scholars coming to the capital these days, but the food in the inn is getting more and more unpalatable!"

"They are probably not afraid that the scholars who go to Beijing to catch the exam will run, after all, there are not a few scholars who want to stay in the inn."

Tang Zihu was talking to Huang Tinghui while eating his meal.

This guy is gobbling up, where is there still the appearance of the son of an official eunuch.

It can be seen that this war has a lot of experience for Tang Zihu.

"If you find the food in the inn unpalatable, you can stay with me for a while."

"The trial is imminent, and you and I can also discuss and discuss with each other if we live together, and maybe we can go further in our studies."

Compared with when they first met, the relationship between Huang Tinghui and Tang Zihu was much better.

Let Tang Zihu stay in the mansion he bought for a few days, naturally, it is not a problem.

The distance from here to the examination hall is not far, and it is still much better than the inn.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate!"

"I'm bothering Brother Tinghui for this time!"

At present, Tang Zihu seems to have been reborn, and he did not refuse Huang Tinghui's suggestion at all.

There is no life for Huang Tinghui.

The two of them were eating and talking.

Looking at this, the two are more like old friends who have known each other for many years.

Soon, the meal was finished.

At this time, Tang Zihu and Huang Tinghui sighed, "These days, you and I are busy on the battlefield, although we have gained a lot of knowledge, but we have also wasted a lot of time!" ”

"You once said that learning is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat!"

"Now that I think about it, it makes sense!"

"You and I haven't studied for so long, but we can't be surpassed by an unknown number of candidates!"

Tang Zihu said with emotion.

"It's only a few months, just try your best this time, don't care too much about the ranking!"

"As long as you play normally, you can take down the Jinshi!"

Huang Tinghui does not have high requirements for himself, so his mentality is also extremely relaxed.

You can take as many as you can, as long as you are on the list.

After all, as long as you pass the examination, the palace examination will not be degraded.

And what Huang Tinghui thinks is just to use the road of the imperial examination to seek an official position for himself.

Seeing Huang Tinghui's calm appearance, Tang Zihu couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Brother Tinghui has such a mentality, no wonder he can perform well in the examination room!" ”

"With Brother Tinghui's mentality, it is extremely difficult to take this exam badly!"

Speaking of this, Tang Zihu seemed to suddenly remember something, and he said to Huang Tinghui, "Tinghui, my father has a close friend!" ”

"It is said that the writing is excellent and the knowledge is extremely high, you and I have already fallen behind too much in our studies this time!"

"Why don't you ask this person for some advice, maybe it can help us this time?" Tang Zihu suddenly mentioned this.

Hearing Tang Zihu say this, Huang Tinghui's brows furrowed suddenly, and he seemed to remember something.

I saw that Huang Tinghui's expression became extremely serious, and he looked at Tang Zihu and said seriously, "Zihu, you need to be cautious at this juncture!" ”

"No matter how cautious you are, don't go and see these famous ministers if you can!"

"Once you set yourself on fire, you won't regret it!"

"With the strength of you and me, as long as you play normally, it shouldn't be particularly difficult to get admitted to a Jinshi."

"Don't ruin your future because of this!" Huang Tinghui looked at Tang Zihu and reminded.

When he went north to Beijing, Huang Tinghui's teacher Li Baichong told him a thousand times, lest he fall into the Tao of some people.

After all, the examination room is like a battlefield, and some people like to use some off-the-board moves.

Therefore, Huang Tinghui had to take precautions.

If it's because it's called a famous Confucian, and this famous Confucian accidentally tries to be implicated.

Then you can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River.

At this point, Huang Tinghui is particularly sober.
