Emperor Hong'an: "Send someone to see what Yan Chuanyu is doing, and report tomorrow." ”

The waiter was stunned and hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

When the chamberlain went out, Emperor Hong'an laughed at himself: "I, I'm old, if I'm young, ...... young."

If it's young, go to what others think!

What can Yan Chuanlu do?

Celebration, of course!

To be precise, it was his "coachman" who was celebrating.

Lu Xu had already gone to buy a bunch of sweets and snacks to distribute around, and he also invited the neighbors to come to his house tomorrow, and he wanted to set up a small-scale flowing water banquet at home to celebrate.

After pasting the gold list early tomorrow morning, Yan Junqi's ranking will be officially decided, and at that time, the Ministry of Rites will also send people to tailor the champions, Bangyan, Tanhua, Chuanyu and the top three names, make new dresses, and prepare for the Qionglin banquet three days later.

Yan Junqi will be fine when he arrives at the Ministry of Rites early to measure the size, and when the Qionglin banquet is over, they will ride a horse through the streets, and then wait at the residence for the officials to arrange whether they will be sent abroad or stay in Beijing.

This time is reserved for them to celebrate.

Others took advantage of this free time to be busy apprentices and run away, and Lu Xu and Yan Junqi didn't plan to do that.

They intend to celebrate in their own way.

First of all, it is to give candy to the neighbors all over the street, and then it is to cook a big meal and treat yourself.

I heard that the government would send someone to their hometown to report the good news, and you can also help them carry some things, Lu Xu was not polite, after finishing the flowing water banquet, he pulled Yan Junqi and Lu Zhou to purchase a lot of books in the afternoon, and ran to find someone to send them the next day.

The official who was going to help them carry their things: "......"

In fact, the people mainly helped them carry letters, and helped the new scholars who might want to stay in Beijing from their hometowns to bring back money from their hometowns.

is as smart as Lu Xu, and when he looks at Fang Fang's expression, he knows that Fang Fang is troublesome.

He immediately explained: "Big brother doesn't know, our hometown is remote, not more prosperous than the capital, if I can, I can't wait to move the good things of the entire capital back, but the mountains and rivers are far away, and I can only bring some scarce good things in my hometown, we think about it, the most valuable is these books, you don't know, our town, a hundred years on this one Jinshi." ”

The official saw that others were very sincere, and he thought about it, Guanyang County, Longxing County, he had never heard of it before, how remote this was!

A golden phoenix flew out of such a mountain nest, and I don't know how high the green smoke came from the ancestral tomb, it's sad to think about it.

"Okay. You wrap up your things, we don't care if they break down on the way. ”

Lu Xu: "Don't worry. ”

He took out all the books and checked them to the official, and made sure that there were no forbidden things, and the three of them squatted in the corner with the books and oiled paper, wrapped them one by one and wrapped them in oiled paper, and then packed five books in a pack, three layers inside and three layers outside, and wrapped the schoolbooks firmly.

Then it was neatly stacked in a wooden box with several layers of oiled paper inside.

The official looked at it and was inexplicably moved.

The yamen came and went, and the three of them squatted in the corner where they were out of the way and packed books for a day. The official watched coldly for a day, and when he collected the box, he neither thought the box was heavy, nor did he ask Lu Xusai for his hard work.

When they were gone, he put a purple seal on the box that they only understood inside, and signaled to the pavilion at all levels of transportation, "Valuables, take care of them carefully, and handle them with care."

When his colleague saw it, he wondered, "Isn't it just a box of books, why are you still sticking this note?" ”

This is a seal that will only be attached when you encounter a reward from the imperial court, or when you want to give expensive and fragile things.

The official put the box away and said with a smile: "Where is this book, this is our conscience of the master." ”

Conscience is much more valuable than porcelain.

What they have done in the past few days has also been truthfully reported to Emperor Hong'an, including what dishes they ate at the banquet, what words they said, and so on.

Unavoidably.

After listening to the report, Emperor Hong'an couldn't connect this down-to-earth celebration with Yan Junqi, who looked cold and had a somewhat lonely temperament.

During the Qionglin banquet, he couldn't help but glance at Yan Junqi, who was dressed in a dark cyan scholar's robe.

All the new science and technology scholars who entered the table, except for the champion, Bangyan and Tanhua are red, the others are blue robes issued by the Ministry of Rites, the second is dark cyan, the third is light cyan, only the first name is newly made, and the others are temporarily borrowed, and they have to be returned after wearing.

The new robe did not have a single fold, which set off Yan Junqi's already fair skin even fairer, as if snow had accumulated on the pine.

Emperor Hong'an couldn't help muttering, isn't Yan Junqi a farmer, the file says that he is the eldest son, he fled at an early age, his father died early, there are only his mother and younger brother in the family, and he doesn't even have any property, how did he grow into a noble son of a family?

Several second-class jinshi who sat with him naturally also noticed Emperor Hong'an's gaze, and sat upright one by one, as if sitting on pins and needles.

What's going on?

Why does Your Majesty not look at the champions, tanhua and lists, and stare at them for a long time?

Could it be that as rumored up, His Majesty regretted it and wanted to make Yan Chuanlu the champion?

When he began to prepare for the hairpin parade activities, some people couldn't help but say sourly, "If you want me to say, what's the use of the champion not being the champion, the champion doesn't have to be in the Hanlin Academy, ten or eight years have passed, who knows which yamen can go to, people are different, not to mention His Majesty's favor, I heard that the household department and the imperial history platform want him." ”

"Really?"

"Nature is true."

"I've heard that the military department seems to be interested in him."

The rest of the people looked at him in shock, "The military department?!" ”

The man nodded, and when he heard this, he was shocked at how similar it was to them, "It seems that the article of the temple examination was well written." ”

Several people were silent for a long time, some sighed, some looked at the sky, and some felt sad about themselves.

The second-class ones still hope to stay in Beijing, and if they are lucky, they can still mix with the Hanlin Academy, and the third-class ones can almost only be assigned to various places to be a small county commander or a loose official.

Jinshi, the same Jinshi.

The difference between one word and one world is very different.

"I've heard that quite a few people are starting to walk and want to find a good place for themselves."

"I've heard about it, too." Jinshi, who had a way in the official department, looked around, lowered his voice and said, "Now I don't want to be sent to a good place, as long as I don't go to the north, thank God!" ”

"I heard that the previous Zhen'an County Commander died on the road before he took office?"

The well-informed nodded secretly, one by one, "It's already the third." ”

The ranking is not good, and there is no way, and it doesn't matter, the top three fellow jinshi are gloomy one by one.

The prefectural order is dead, isn't that just a vacancy?

No one wants to go, so isn't it their turn?

They're going to cry.

This......

It's better to fall off the list!!

Looking at the proud champions, tanhua and bangyan in the spring breeze, they became more and more jealous.

In an exam, why is there such a big difference between people and people?

"He Zhuangyuan is a relative of He Taishi, right?"

"yes."

"He is already from a famous family, why is he still the champion?"

"yes......"

"If it weren't for him, it wouldn't be our turn."

They turned their gaze to Yan Junqi again.

Now there is a legend in Shilin that the champion should have been Yan Junqi, but the background is not as hard as He Songzhi, and Emperor Hong'an ordered He Songzhi to be the champion because of He Taishi's face.

A few people who were quietly gossiping hurriedly said: "Oops! Look! He Zhuangyuan went to talk to Yan Chuanyu! ”

Chapter 208: Touring the City

"Brother Yan."

"Brother He."

Yan Junqi was listening to the top name of the top three and said that he couldn't ride a horse, and he would be embarrassed if he fell off the horse for a while, and he was worried that he would be sent to the corner to be the county commander.

Yan Junqi was listening in and out of his left ear while looking among the five horses, not wanting He Songzhi to come to him.

He and the top three first, although the ranking is not as good as the first one, but because they each occupy a first place, representing the second and third first, they can also walk in front of the three of the same first, because in the past two years, there are finally horses in Beijing, and they can also ride horses together on the streets without walking.

Although Yan Junqi actually prefers to walk a little.

He doesn't know how to ride a horse yet!

"But you're leaving?" Yan Junqi subconsciously looked at He Songzhi's head, and saw that the hairpin on his hat was a gold leaf osmanthus, and muttered silently in his heart, it turned out that the hairpin was a golden flower......

"Not yet." He Songzhi looked over to the horses, where the Guards were still checking the saddles.

They also thought about the problem that the five proud sons of Daqi could not ride horses, and each horse was specially equipped with a special guard of the Imperial Forest Army to help them get on and off their horses and lead the horses for them.

However, He Songzhi obviously does not have this predicament, and when Daqi is most short of horses, his family is also not lacking.

He came to Yan Junqi purely because he didn't know Yan Junqi before, and he couldn't find a chance to talk to him after the test, so he came to make friends at this time.

Yan Junqi didn't know him either.

Although he has not participated in the gatherings of Shilin students since he entered Beijing, He Songzhi has never mixed with them as a low-end group of wild people, he has his own social circle, and he takes the high-end path of the children of the family, and rarely goes to the streets.

However, his prodigy name is almost unknown to everyone in the capital, and Yan Junqi has not heard of it, and he has also read several poems and articles written by He Songzhi.

Although Lu Xu saw that he was sad on the day of the palace test and comforted him that the fourth was the first, Yan Junqi was very self-aware and knew that He Songzhilian Sanyuan definitely did not rely on the relationship of He Taishi, he was really talented.

The two looked at each other, and refreshed their impression of each other.

The palace test was nervous, and they didn't dare to look at it indiscriminately in the Ziwei Palace, and today they really recognized what the other party looked like.

He Song's appearance is not as good as him and Tanhua, but he is also dignified, the elegance of the scribe penetrates the whole body, and his gestures are upright and polite, Yan Junqi's first impression of him is quite good.

He Songzhi looked at Yan Junqi, but was surprised.

He knows Zong Hongfei who explores flowers, Zong Hongfei's appearance is definitely worthy of the name of Tanhua, Emperor Hong'an praised Yan Junqi for his appearance of exploring flowers, he is still a little curious, and when he looks at it closely today, Yan Junqi's appearance is really not inferior to Zong Hongfei.

"Brother Yan can stay in Beijing in the near future?"

"Longxing is far away, and I don't plan to return to my hometown for the time being." After the exam, they have two or three months of vacation to go to work, or to return to their hometown to pick up relatives, but Longxing is too far away, and they can't go one way for three months, Yan Junqi doesn't plan to go home in a hurry.
