Chapter 183: Well-dressed households

Nanxun Temple.

"It's been a long time since I've seen the right side.

Gao Lishi greeted Li Linfu and asked: "Recently, there has been a serious dispute between the DPRK and China over the ranking of the current department, but I have not seen the right minister come forward?"

"I was busy persuading farmers to spring ploughing and other national events, and I didn't care about a children's farce."

"Really." Colliers smiled and nodded.

Li Linfu naturally didn't care about the science field, and the Tang Dynasty's Juntian, Fubing, and Renyong Adjustment were not busy, how could he care about getting a child who didn't win the top prize? After all, there are still two or three poor disciples in this department, unlike Tianbao's six years of wild and unsparing sages.

When the monarch and the ministers met, even Li Longji praised him.

"The right minister is acting steadily.

"The sage has an excessive reputation, the so-called "governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh', the old minister is walking on thin ice, and he does not dare to toss like a young man. ”

Some people have tossed too much in the matter of Chunqiu, and they have been beaten by Li Linfu.

- "So greedy that you don't even care about the face of a saint?" There is no shortage of Jinshi in the middle, and even the head has to be taken? After all, Shiro is in charge of the prison, and you can still be allowed to make paper and books privately? Why reach out to the surface? Take out an explanation to satisfy the saint, and you will have a better time!

In short, as soon as he made a move, he quickly quelled the farce, and now there is only one small thing left.

If you don't depose Xue Bai's champion, there are two ways to commit a crime. ”

It is a big trouble to avoid such etiquette arguments, and Li Longji doesn't want to touch it, so he doesn't wait for Li Linfu to finish speaking: "He is not the son of Xue Ling.

"That'...... In the book of the young eunuch, it is still recorded that Xue Pingzhao is the son of Xue Rust, has it been changed? ”

Li Longji's face sank, and he said, "I pardoned Xue Bai, an orphan raised by Xue Rust, don't you understand?"

"The minister understands, Xue Bai exposed the evidence of Xue Rust's rebellion, and he got rid of the cheapness, and the minister will be registered for him."

Li Linfu took the command and retreated, thinking in his heart, the case involving the three concubines, Xue Bai could still get the forgiveness of the saint? Although there is a reason, as soon as this opening is opened, it is inevitable that some people will have the luxury of rehabilitating the abolished prince.

Jin Wujing Street, all the way back to Pingkangfang's Right Prime Minister's Mansion, the first thing Li Linfu did was to summon Xue Bai to see.

He asked Li Xiu to go in person.

"Grandpa, did the child tell him that it was to give him an identity?"

"Needless to say, if he doesn't come, then it's up to him.

In this way, it was because Inda Xixun had invited Xue Bai to come, but he was refused.

Li Linfu was narrow-minded and had already held back his anger, of course, Xue Bai had offended him many times, and no matter how narrow-minded he was, he could ventilate.

Unexpectedly, Xue Bai arrived after only waiting for half an hour, he said goodbye to Gao Shi, and the first thing he did was to go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.

Li Linfu was reviewing the official document and got the communication, frowning, feeling inexplicably displeased.

"The shaft is coming quickly.

"Presumably, the right minister recruited me here for my arrangement?"

Li Linfu sulked and sulked, "um".

Xue Bai said: "A country is bothered by me for this little thing, I should thank the right minister, by the way, thank you to the right minister for making me the champion."

In other words, the purpose of opening his hand to stop his future was to vent his anger to the saint. Li Linfu insisted on pointing at him, but it was to harm him.

The people in the power field only look at interests, not by emotions, and now that the result is beneficial to Xue Bai, he will not care about people like Suo Douji, who have been repeatedly frustrated, but he seems to be quite personable.

"Don't talk about it, this is the door for you." Li Linfu said: "You are neither Xue Lingzi nor Xue Ruzi, who are your parents?" It can't just pop out of a stone.

"The right minister has also seen Journey to the West?

Li Xiu stood aside and couldn't help but speak, and secretly said that Xue Bai was so bold that he dared to laugh in front of his grandfather.

It must be known that Li Linfu is in a strong spirit, and he looks even more severe than a merry and hearty saint, and more than a year ago, he could easily decide Xue Bai's life and death.

But there is an eternal truth in the world, and those who have the ability will make people look up to them, and Xue Bai has now shown his means.

"I've never seen anything like that." Li Linfu said with a businesslike attitude: "If you want to be an official, there should always be a way out." ”

It must be known that in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty, even if it is a cold family, it can be traced back to who the ancestor is.

But Xue Bai insisted that he couldn't remember, and in the end, Li Linfu had no choice but to write down in his book of books, "Young and lost, lonely and helpless, and I don't know my ancestral hometown", and handed it over to the Shaofu Supervisor to handle.

After finishing this business, Li Linfu also beat Xue Bai.

"In the future, if you have an official body, you will be an upright official of the imperial court, and you will often go to the palace to play. If you have general affairs, go to the right minister's house to do it. ”

"Then it's going to bother the right minister.

What followed was the real purpose of finding people today, and Li Xiu took the opportunity to invite Xue Bai to the backyard to drink and talk.

"You only rely on the holy family, and you have no family, you can be a courtier, but you can't go far in the serious officialdom, why don't you listen to persuasion?

"Therefore, I sought to be a Jinshi and walked step by step."

"Down-to-earth?

When Li Xiu heard these two words, she thought to herself that Xue Bai was too shameless, he was bent on camping, and he dared to call himself down-to-earth with nepotism?

Thinking about it carefully, Xue Bai sharpened his calligraphy articles, followed the rules of the field, and honestly cultivated his talents, and he was really down-to-earth in his career.

The benefits of doing this are not obvious now, and others will say that he has poor personal morality and a humble background, but his foundation is firmly laid, and even the hidden dangers of his life experience have been solved by him.

It's true that you are down-to-earth, and then you will be seeking an official, what do you think? ”

"Does Shiro have any advice?

"You are only a strategy now, but you have not yet entered the department, you must first go to the Ministry of Officials to pass the test." Li Xiu said: "If you are a jinshi in the white body, you will be exempted from taxes and forced labor, and you will enter the ranks of 'agricultural crown households'...... Oh, you're different, you've gone from lowly to white and then well-dressed in one day.

"It's the right side."

"In short, your name, family form, etc., should be closed in white documents, and after being examined by the Ministry of Rites, they will be handed over to the Ministry of Officials, and from then on, they will be among the officials to be selected, which is the 'Liberation Brown', from the commoner to the official."

Saying that, Li Xiu became more and more cordial, and said with a smile: "Although it is a miscellaneous matter, it is troublesome to do." When Grandpa has someone to take care of your family, I will do it for you. ”

"So, Rajuro bothered.

"Between you and me, why be polite?" Li Xiu said: "But the election of the subordinate department is still just a 'election', and it may not be able to keep a member in three or five years." Depending on your enterprising spirit, you will not be willing to wait. ”

"Juro really understands me." Xue Bai said: "However, maybe Uncle Guo can find a member for me." ”

"After all, the salt officer is a vulgar stream, you are from the top of the family, and you should be the Qing official. What's more, if you want to take Qingyun Avenue, you should lay a solid foundation in a down-to-earth manner. In my opinion, the best way to do this is to take the Scholar's Proficiency Test, or the Scholar's Judgment Excellence Test. In a scientific examination, you don't have to keep the selection, and you can give up the field immediately. ”

In fact, when the term of office of officials in Datang arrives, they must be elected, and they will not be able to get new official positions for three or five years.

Jinshi and the first only have the qualification to confer officials, but it does not mean that the status of Jinshi is low. After Shi Brown had an official body, he was the same as other officials, and even the reputation of Jinshi was even higher.

The problem is that there are too few official positions and too many people waiting to be conferred. Although the number of Jinshi is pitiful, there are many shaders in the family, and there are many wolves and little meat, which makes it extremely difficult to make up for the gap.

Therefore, the erudition test and the book judgment test are also an important step in the career of the officials.

It's not about talent and fame. It is to see whether an official can be a hall official, a pen officer, and whether he can enter the blue eyes of the examiner of the Ministry of Officials.

Just imagine, even if a talented and well-known poor man wins the Jinshi, where can he find hundreds of dollars to take care of the officials? And how can the Zhongshu Province not depose him?

The answer to this is all in Li Xiu's attentive eyes.

"You and Du Wei are also friends, you should know that he has moved three levels in a row within half a year." Li Xiu said: "Don't worry, the Ministry of Officials and Zhongshu Province will deal with Zuo Xiang." If you are free, come back tomorrow, oh, call Seventeen Niang, and hold a family banquet to congratulate you on winning the champion. ”

Speaking of which, the Qujiang banquet was on March 3, and Tengkongzi had been busy rehearsing recently. Why don't you wait until after the feast? Xue Bai said: "After all, this opera can make the saint happy, and it also has the credit of the right minister." ”

"It's....too.

Li Xiu had the heart to make a marriage, but he was greedy for the credit of this rehearsal, so his posture was unconsciously shorter, and he didn't dare to force Xue Bai anymore.

"What are you looking for again?" Du Wulang waited outside the door of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion again.

"The matter of conferring officials." Xue Bai said: "By the way, remind me, I will be in his charge in the future, don't offend him too much." ”

Du Wulang said: "I just saw those two Hanmen Jinshi come out of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion with Da Xixun, do you know?

Have they been recruited as sons-in-law? One wants to marry Yang Qixuan's cousin, and the other wants to marry the daughter of the Cui family, which was not said when they worshiped under the door of Uncle Guo. ”

"We can't steal all the limelight."

"Also, you are worth ten of them." Du Wulang said: "If I want to guess, the next step must be to win you over."

"You're so smart.

"Not really. When I went to Zhuang Yuanlang's house and said that the matchmaker had broken the threshold, how could I not know? ”

Xue Bai listened and said, "Then let's go back to Du's house today." ”

"Hey, you've only been focusing on your career in the imperial examination lately, but you still have a lot of family affairs that you haven't taken care of. It doesn't matter if you don't recognize Xue Ling, Liu Niangzi and the Xue family brothers and sisters have to be comforted? It's all me calming their emotions. Now that Xue Ling is placed in the longevity mansion and watched, the others have moved to Xuanyangfang, and I told them that they will still be a family in the future.....

Du Wulang babbled and said, and Xue Bai also listened carefully.

At the end, Xue Bai said: "Then it seems that you handled it well, so I can rest assured." ”

"But I'm in trouble because of you." Du Wulang sighed and whispered, "I'll tell you, don't tell others." After you and Xue Ling drew a clear relationship, my grandfather was a little disgusted with Sanniang's background, and I had to get married as soon as possible.

"If you have the ability, your grandfather naturally can't be your master. I'll tell your uncle about this for you, don't worry.

"Yes, you just said that although the third sister is not your own sister, she is better than your own sister.

"You don't need to teach."

In this way, Du Wulang was willing to go all the way south with Xue Bai to the Du Mansion in Shengpingfang, and asked quite longingly: "When do you think I will get married?" Is it possible in the middle of the year?

"Since you have won the Ming Sutra, don't you seek an official?

"I'm not in a hurry." Du Wulang said: "How good it is to start a family first, keep the election for a few years, and then enter the official when you are in your twenties." ”

"Time is not waiting for me, since I can release brown as an official, what I want to seek is to change the green robe for the red robe within five or six years, and then ask for the town side.

When he arrived at the Du house, Xue Bai did not hide his ambitions with the Du family sisters.

He did not indulge in the joy of keeping the champion, and directly planned his first official position.

"Originally, the sage promised that if I won the competition, he would promise me a big official, but now he is annoyed with me for bullying the king, and his anger has not subsided. But it doesn't matter, I can consolidate my qualifications first, and follow the eight steps that Niangniang said. When the saint has lost his breath and remembers his promise, he can accumulate it. ”

"That's right." Du Shi said: "As soon as you enter the office, you will let the sage Xu Guan, no matter how high it is, it will not exceed the eighth grade." And if you get through the qualifications, from the green robe to the green robe, from the green robe to the red robe, the sage can save you ten years as soon as he opens his mouth.

She really understands Xue Bai's greed best, and she wants to turn this bad thing into a good thing and maximize her benefits.

"Therefore, I plan to take the Scholars' Erudite Word Test." Xue Bai said.

As he spoke, he glanced at Du Niang and realized that although the two sisters came together, they were not completely reconciled.

"We have been prepared for this matter for a long time, and Grandpa is now in the official examination, and he should also be useful." Du Shi smiled and asked: "But before the official department is elected, you have to let the high-ranking families choose their sons-in-law, I don't know whose son-in-law the champion plans to be?" ”

Such a problem is difficult for Xue Bai to deal with.

Fortunately, at this time, Du Goro's excited voice sounded in the courtyard.

"Xue Bai, my grandpa is back, talk to him quickly!"

That night, Du Youlin was in high spirits, drinking wine and talking about Jinshi with Xue Bai.

Although he only has the qualifications to confer officials, those who have the shade of the door always look down on the Jinshi. But there are more than 20 places a year, after all, they are recognized by the world as the world's talents, and the Jinshi of Datang are actually quite wild.

"For example, in the fifth year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, there was a Jinshi Wang Lingran, and after that, he wrote a letter to Gao Changyu, the letter probably said, "Gao Yushi, you have praised me, I once regarded myself as your disciple, but you passed by Songcheng many times but ignored me, I participated in the autumn trouble you presided over and deposed me, I blamed you for a long time." ”

Du Youlin hiccuped, a little drunk, hehe smiled, and continued: "Wang Lingran said again, 'There are a number of jinshi in the world, from the north of the river, only servants, and the glory is very much', north of the Yellow River, there is a jinshi out of him, what a glory? So he said to Gao Changyu that Wangyu Yushi will be a servant this year, and he will pay attention to an official next year

One day, he will stand side by side with him, look sideways at each other, and he will not give a good face...... Hahaha.

Xue Bai listened to it funny and said, "The genius of the Tang Dynasty is indeed crazy. ”

"Deserved, deserved." Du Youlin took another drink and said with a smile: "There are a number of Jinshi in the world, and if you deserve to be so arrogant, Xue Lang is too calm." Otherwise, I have to say to the old man, "I hope to be a servant and ask for a wife, and pay attention to an official". ”

The atmosphere in the courtyard was stagnant.

Du Niang was lifting the wine jug to pour it for Du Youlin, and when she heard the words, she seemed to be shocked, and her face turned a little pale.

"Grandpa is drunk, so he talks nonsense." Du Shi said: "Auntie, help Grandpa go back and rest." ”

"Good.

"Xue Lang can be crazy." After Du Youlin was helped up, he continued to shake his hand and smiled: "If Zhuang Yuanlang is not crazy, how can there be interest in the Qujiang banquet?"

In the dead of night, in the backyard, outside Du Niang's boudoir, there was a gentle knock on the door.

"Sister, have you slept?

Du Yan tossed and turned and didn't sleep, she heard Du Shi's voice, and reluctantly opened the door, but saw her and Xue Bai standing there.

"It's been a long night, and I don't think my sister should have slept." Du Shi smiled: "I want to invite you to the backyard to enjoy the flowers." ”

"Do you think of me now?

"Mo was annoyed, but thanks to you being angry because I lied, he thought that he should confess and save his life, this time Sister Ah made the first big contribution.

Du Niang couldn't help but smile, quite gentle. Finally reconciled with Du Shi.

The two sisters held hands and talked, looked sideways at Xue Bai, and teased.

"Hey, how can Zhuang Yuanlang not speak?

"This side of the backyard is too close to the main house."

"My grandpa made you crazy, are you so crazy?"

After all, it was less to come to their boudoir, Xue Bai was not so comfortable, and let Du Niang make fun of him.

Close the doors and windows, the wind outside the house gradually rises, and the teasing inside the house gradually becomes a murmur.

"Crazy, crazy...... It's crazy.......

"Go down the incense steps, lazy step moss. Out of the study, to the painting pavilion, the moon moves the flower shadow jade people. Learn to steal jade, try to steal incense, and the dream soul flies into the Chu balcony......."

The next day, in the theater garden of Xue Mansion in Xuanyangfang, Niannu was singing the lyrics, the sound was like a yellow warbler out of the valley, and it was so moving that Li Jilan nodded again and again.

Ji Lanzi, what do the next few sentences mean? ”

"Which one?

"The blue musk is fragrant and the butterflies are blooming."

"Well, that's what I mean...... We met in the backyard. Li Jilan prevaricated.

Nian Nu was not completely puzzled, glanced at her, and asked in a low voice: "Does the slave family want to ask, should I sing more coquettishly, or .......

Li Jilan turned his head and saw Xue Bai arriving from a distance, so he simply left Nian Nu and greeted him, Wan Fu said, "Mr. is finally willing to come."

The Qujiang banquet is coming, and it's time to come.

Xue Bai glanced at the theater and asked, "Are you confident of winning?"

"Nope." Li Jilan shook her head a little apprehensively, and said in a low voice: "The saint is the first person in the world to play with the saint, and if you want to compete with the saint, you will be so worried that you can't sleep well for many days. I didn't sleep all night last night, so I finally let her rest. ”

"Thank you for your hard work.

"No, no." When Li Jilan got this sentence, her eyes immediately lit up, and she said, "I've heard that Mr. kept the champion, it's really amazing.......

She only knew how to praise Xue Bai blindly, but the fan girl who was playing the matchmaker on the side knew how to deal with men better, and scolded Xue Bai.

"Xue Lang only cares about the champion, and he refuses to come to see each other often, if the slaves lose during the Qujiang banquet, it doesn't matter, I am afraid that Xue Lang's lifelong event will be a big deal."

"It's okay, you've done your best."

Xue Bai didn't understand the rhythm of music, so he could only trust them.

As for winning or losing, with his unscrupulous nature, he thinks it will be easier to buy the referee.....
