Chapter 177: Newcomer Report
Bianjing City.
After going through a whole set of lengthy rituals and processes after Zhongjinshi, Wei Chen was busy with his life's events as soon as he returned home.
Three days later, Wei Chen invited his teacher Zhuang Jun to knock on the door of the Sheng family with gifts, and officially asked Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu to marry Rulan and Minglan.
Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu naturally readily agreed, and immediately exchanged Geng posts with Wei Chen, set a friendship, and agreed that when the two daughters and Lu were married two years later, it would be their wedding day.
In fact, it stands to reason that the brothers and sisters above have not yet said that they are married, and it will not be Rulan and Minglan in their turn, but this is a marriage given by the Son of Heaven, and it cannot be overstated.
Besides, this is just a marriage, if you really want to get married, you have to wait until two years later, I think that Changbai and Changfeng should almost fall in love with each other, and the two younger sisters are not preemptive.
Under the marriage agreement with Wei Chen, Sheng Hong was also relieved, he didn't know that Wei Chen begged Zhao Zhen to give him marriage, and he only thought that Queen Cao saw that Wei Chen was not yet married, so she temporarily married her two daughters to Wei Chen.
Therefore, Sheng Hong has always been faintly worried in his heart, he is willing to marry Wei Chen, but if Wei Chen is young and vigorous, and he can't look down on the small family of the Sheng family, then the Sheng family will be embarrassed.
Fortunately, when Wei Chen came to the door today, he was very respectful to Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu, and his words were full of joy and expectation for this family matter, which finally let the big stone in Sheng Hong's heart go.
Sheng Hong thought that he had picked up a fast son-in-law who rode the dragon out of thin air, so he secretly rejoiced.
Sheng Changbai knew Wei Chen better, and always felt that Wei Chen must be making trouble behind the marriage, so he was unwilling to give Wei Chen a good look.
But after all, scolding and scolding, Sheng Changbai actually recognized Wei Chen's brother-in-law in his heart, but he couldn't wipe his face for a while.
Wei Chen had already understood this, so he was not in a hurry at all, of course, there was no harm in being courteous to his future eldest brother.
Anyway, Wei Chen has already made up his mind, during this time, he must put down his face, pat his uncle's ass, and wait until Sheng Changbai is embarrassed when he is, then he will pass this level.
Today, when I came to visit the Sheng family, Wei Chen and Sheng Hong exchanged Geng posts, and after deciding on the family, they went to Sheng Changbai's study with the carefully collected ancient paintings, and sat for half an hour.
A gentleman can be bullied, Wei Chen doesn't even want his face, Sheng Changbai really has nothing to do with him, so he can only sulk by himself.
However, Sheng Changbai saw that Wei Chen had lowered his posture to such a point, and his anger had disappeared by more than half, and he was finally willing to say a few words to Wei Chen without a match.
Wei Chen originally wanted to go and see his two flower-like fiancées, but unfortunately when he saw Sheng Changbai's eyes that wanted to swallow him, he had no choice but to give up.
Anyway, they have already made a marriage, and the two families are so close, Wei Chen can come at any time if he wants to, and there is no need to be in a hurry.
The next day, it was the day when the new science and technology scholars went to report to the ministry, and Wei Chen came to Sheng's house early in the morning, waiting outside Sheng Changbai's house, pestering Sheng Changbai to go together.
Sheng Changbai had no choice but to take this with the fart to the Ministry of Officials to participate in the court examination presided over by the Ministry of Officials.
Except for the future of Sandingjia, the rest of the Jinshi still have to go through the court examination before they can have the opportunity to be selected as a Shujishi and become a member of the Hanlin Academy.
Of course, whether or not you can be selected as a Shujishi only accounts for a small part of the results of the court examination, mainly depending on the results of the palace examination.
Sheng Changbaidian ranked first in the second class in the exam, and Wang Yaochen was also the ninth in the second grade.
The imperial examination lasted only one day, and the list was released three days later to determine the final Jinshi distribution list.
There are four grades in total.
The last class is sent to the local provincial yamen to observe the government, once there is a vacancy in the county or the local officials of the same level, the vacancy can be filled immediately, this is the tiger class that is ready to use under the list, and the future of the seven grades of iron and bronze casting.
However, this is only the worst among the fellow scholars.
The third class was sent to the Sixth Ministry, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and other important yamen in the capital to observe the government, and when the vacancy in the Beijing was vacant, he could fill the vacancy and become a member of the Beijing officials, which was many times luckier than those who were struggling in the local area in the same year.
You must know that the gold content of Beijing officials is much stronger than that of local officials, such as the Beijing officials of the seventh grade, and the local places will generally award the sixth grade, which is not a promotion, but a flat adjustment.
This is the hierarchical suppression of local officials by Beijing officials, so many officials have to stay in Bianjing and refuse to be released. As long as you stay in Beijing and are close to the center, there will always be a way to be promoted in the future.
The second class, selected as a Shu Jishi, got the opportunity to enter the Hanlin Academy for three years of further study, delved into various literary and historical classics, and learned to deal with government affairs.
After three years, the hall was dismissed, and those with excellent grades stayed in the hall, and were awarded the Hanlin for editing or reviewing, officially becoming the Hanlin like Sandingjia, and then moving forward along their path.
And the first class is naturally Wei Chen, Li Zuochang, and Cai Xuan.
The court entrance examination is just a formality for them, no matter what the results of the court entrance examination are, they will enter the Hanlin Academy, and a good future has long been doomed.
Champion Weichen was awarded the revision of the six products, and Li Zuochang and Cai Xuan of Tanhua were all edited by the seventh grade, and they could go directly to the Hanlin Academy to report.
At the end of the month, Sheng Changbai, who was dragged by Wei Chen to see the list, really saw the names of himself and Wang Yaochen in the second-class list, both of them were selected as Shu Jishi, and they will be Wei Chen's colleagues in the future.
On the same day, the three of them went to the official department to register the official and receive the official uniform.
The official uniform is divided into official uniform and regular uniform, the official uniform is worn during the court, and the regular uniform is worn when sitting in the government office on weekdays.
Five-grade to seven-grade service green, Weichen's official is from the sixth grade of the repair, plus the five-grade court doctor of the loose official, wearing a regimental collar shirt and green robe, with a black horn leather belt.
Wearing this official robe, Wei Chen is no longer the tattered and poor scholar who spends all day long.
Self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world, Wei Chen has barely stepped into the ranks of governing the country since then.
After coming out of the official department, the three of them went home to rest for a day, and the next day they went to the Hanlin Academy to report.
On the day an official arrives in office, it is natural that there will be a lot of red tape.
The three of them entered the courtyard gate, and after meeting with the leading officer who was in charge of greeting, they first entered the saint's shrine to worship under the guidance of the former guide, and then went to the Changli Temple to worship.
This Changli is Han Yu Han Changli.
Han Yu never entered the Hanlin Academy in his life, but he was respected by all the Hanlin as a model of articles, and Wei Chen's previous articles were often called Han Changli's resurrection, which also shows the high evaluation of him by the examiner.
After worshipping the two shrines, the three of them entered the inner hall.
The lecture and reading hall in the west is the office place of the six products of reading and speaking, and the reading and reading are collectively referred to as the speakers, and they have the responsibility of preaching for the Son of Heaven.
The review hall on the east side is the office location for the revision of the sixth grade, the editing of the seventh grade, and the review of the seventh grade.
If there is no accident, it is very likely that the three of Wei Chen's working hours in the next few years will be spent here.
