Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Bai Dalang got the appointment order from Tongbai County, because it was the busy spring season, so the time was urgent. The imperial court gave him the appointment order in a hurry, and asked him to go to Tongbai County immediately and arrive within ten days.

Tangzhou is not very far from the capital, Tongbai County is a little further away, and it will arrive in five days, so he still has four or five days to prepare.

But he didn't plan to go by the time, so after getting Ren Ling, he spent a day saying goodbye to his classmates and friends, and the next day he stayed at home with his family, and left on the third day after explaining what happened.

Cheng Linghui will take the child to take office with him, but not at the same time. He will go first, wait for Tongbai County to settle down, and then send a letter. Then he will send people over here.

After dinner in the evening, the group of them sat together and talked in the open house in the back garden. Bai Dalang sighed while holding a cup of tea: "I didn't expect to leave the capital at this time. It's quite reluctant after all these years."

In his life, um, although it is not long enough, the place where he has stayed for the longest time is the capital, except for Mianzhou City and Qili Village.

It's reluctant to think about it.

Bai Dalang looked at Bai Erlang, "Your appointment has not come down yet?"

Bai Erlang shook his head and said, "No, but I already know. Your Majesty arranged for me to enter the Hanlin Academy."

The emperor temporarily suppressed that no one would tell him, nor would he make an announcement, but he had to tell him quietly in order to sell him.

Bai Dalang reached out and patted him on the shoulder, encouraging: "Do well."

There are people in the DPRK who are good at doing things, and this time Bai Dalang felt it. If Zhou Man hadn't stopped Li Shangshu's recommendation, he would have to wait longer.

He couldn't help but glanced at Bai Erlang, so brother, you have to work harder.

Bai Erlang couldn't understand the meaning of this look. When he saw his brother looking at him, he immediately nodded and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely not cause trouble."

Bai Dalang withdrew his gaze. Forget it, he should look for Bai Shan and Zhou Man.

Bai Shan was a little envious of Bai Dalang, and the next day he sent people out of the city to return: "Lord Hall, if you have time, write more letters back, and let's exchange experience in managing the place."

Bai Dalang: "...Do you have this experience?"

"So you have to study." Otherwise, why do you keep writing letters?

Bai Dalang nodded helplessly, "Okay, I understand, I will write to you."

After Bai Dalang left, Bai Erlang's appointment came down. This time, the Ministry of Personnel gave him a time to report, which gave him no chance to be lazy.

He packed up his things and went to the Hanlin Academy with Bai Shan at the gate of the imperial city every morning.

He is a new Hanlin, and he is mainly doing errands when he enters. He will find information for everyone. The rest is to read books by himself and write some insignificant articles by himself.

After getting familiar with them, the officers fully understand their abilities before deciding which type of books to write and which part they are responsible for.

Bai Shan is now involved in the compilation of a book about local customs, mainly responsible for the collection of customs in Jiannan Road.

So the books he's read recently are all of this type.

Of course, this is only part of the work. His most important work is to organize books for the emperor, draft edicts, answer the emperor's inquiries, and accompany the emperor to study.

Bai Erlang does not have this job, so he spends most of his time in the Hanlin Academy, which is much easier than Bai Shan.

At first, his boss didn't like to assign tasks to him, and he was happy too, rummaging around in the Hanlin Academy to look for various small books.

The collection of books in the Hanlin Academy is much more complicated than that in the Chongwen Museum. In addition to some precious books, it also includes many people's manuscripts and the like.

He didn't know what was going on that day. He wandered around and entered a room. The room was full of rolls of silk cloth, piles of manuscript papers, and manuscripts that were not so beautifully bound. And manuscripts, at first glance, are not things that can be printed by bookstores.

So he went in and looked around curiously. It was incredible. There was everything in it.

Bai Erlang also saw the secrets of the previous dynasty written by the people of the previous dynasty.

It has not been a long time since the previous dynasty. His father was born in the previous dynasty, and he still studied in the previous dynasty, although the time was not very long.

Regarding the previous dynasty, his father only had one impression, that was chaos!

So the secrets written by people in the previous dynasty are very likely to be true.

Bai Erlang took a roll of books and looked left and right. He didn't find any place to read. He simply sat down under the window where the sun was shining, and sat cross-legged on the ground and read.

When Bai Shan came out of the palace and was looking for him, he asked around, but no one had seen him.

A colleague smiled and said, "Perhaps he left the imperial city?"

Everyone has done it before. Most of the things in the Hanlin Academy are only based on the amount of work. It is enough to complete the task within the specified time. The bosses generally do not make more demands on attendance.

Bai Shan secretly said, "Everyone goes to the yamen's office at the moment, and the school-to-school goes to school, and no one is outside at all. What is he doing out there?"

Bai Shan felt that he must still be in the Hanlin Academy, so he started looking for each room.

When the door was opened, Bai Shan almost believed that he had left early, but as soon as he entered the door, he realized that something was wrong, and he looked around and saw Bai Erlang sitting under the window.

He looked up at the bookshelves, then backed out to have a look, and found that he had never found this corner, so he came in again and asked, "What books are there?"

Bai Erlang said without raising his head: "It's all miscellaneous books, come and see, this is written by an internal official of the previous dynasty, saying that Emperor Ai of the previous dynasty loved beauty, and he specially ordered the whole country to select beauty contestants, and many internal officials fought to break it. I have to take charge of this errand even if I lose my head, and there is a murder case for this."

Bai Shan was not interested in this. He stretched out his hand and took out a roll of silk cloth. When he opened it, he found that it was a scroll of scolding Emperor Ai of the previous dynasty. There was a piece of white silk inside. He was consecrated to death by Emperor Ai shortly after he wrote this oath.

Bai Shan closed the silk cloth and wandered the room curiously. On a bookshelf, he found a few volumes of the living records of the previous dynasty.

It was piled up on the bookshelf and divided only according to time.

He flipped through it, looked at Zui Julang's name and the recorded time, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows, this was not recorded by Zui Julang.

Bai Shan put the silk cloth on it and couldn't help but ask the seniors of the Hanlin Academy.

"Oh, you said that room is full of miscellaneous materials," he said, "You can't believe the words of one person, but you can't believe it. Most of them are private records, and many of them have strong emotions, my lord. They believe that in order to cultivate history, we must first abandon our feelings and treat everything as impartially as possible, so the things in that room are only for reference and are not included in the official history."

It is generally not mixed with personal feelings when recording the words and deeds of the emperor and ministers, and there is no need to have literary talent. The most important thing is to keep things straight.

Even they seldom assess a person's merits and demerits, only narrate, wait for a hundred years, or even longer, for future generations to look at this history, and then make their own judgments.

But these unofficial histories are different. They themselves have a strong recognition of their merits and demerits, and they wish that everyone in the world would agree with them, otherwise they would be gang members of the wicked. Therefore, these things can be read, but they cannot be rashly used in history books.
