Imperial Exam Daily

The days are like flowing water. During the days in Wenyang County, apart from dealing with some small officials and merchants who wanted to cling to the Yang family and give gifts to their door, Yang Ye and Axi would pick lemons in the garden and make lemonade. I also made boneless chicken feet for the family twice, and distributed some lemon branches to the village, hoping that the villagers could cultivate lemon trees.

Axi also went to the village with Yang Ye, specifically to thank Dr. Shen. According to Shen Changnian's method of treating stuttering and the medicine prescribed, the stuttering is much better now, and she is pregnant. Back in Beijing, there was no way to visit Shen Changnian. If you don't go now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a chance in the future.

After Yang Ye learned about it, he specially bought some precious medicinal materials in the county town. He regarded it as a thank-you gift for Shen Changnian, and then asked the doctor to prescribe some anti-fetal medicine for Axi. He would have to go back to the capital in a few days. The bumps, back and forth, he was afraid that Ah Xi's body would not be able to bear it, Shen Changnian's medical skills were high, and he would feel at ease if he prescribed the medicine.

In the past, when they moved their family into the county town, the house in the village was deserted after being unoccupied for a long time. After Shen Changnian lived in it, it was well-managed and full of fireworks.

When the couple arrived, the door was locked, and no one was at home. They stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the small thatched house. They used to come and go here, but now they feel familiar and strange, just like in the past. Those hours of labor were the same as in the previous life, and both of them couldn't help but fell into the memory.

After a while, Yang Ye saw the little boy who had lived here with Shen Changnian coming back from the mountain with a basket of herbs on his back, looking at the boy in blue coarse cloth from a distance, he was fourteen or fifteen years old, and he was not tall. Holding the rope of the basket with both hands, and looking down at Lu, he was fascinated for a moment.

A few years ago when Ah Xi was running among the mountains and plains, he was at this age and with such an attitude. During those months, he thought he had no extra meaning for Ah Xi, and he was even wary of him, afraid that they would like him, but he didn't know that every day The next time I got off work and saw that Ah Xi was not at home, standing in the yard looking at the winding mountain trails, the longing in my heart waiting for people to go home had already hidden people in my heart little by little.

Thinking of the past, and seeing the gentle person beside him, he felt extra soft in his heart.Fortunately, they have achieved positive results, and they are always by their side.

"What are you thinking, boy let us go in and sit down."

His hand was pulled suddenly, and his wandering mind was also pulled back. He smiled and followed Axi into the room.

Everything in the house remains the same, except that some new furniture and utensils have been added, and the whole room smells of herbs.

The little boy made some tea and came in: "Doctor Shen went to the next village for a visit. He has been there for a while, and he should be back soon. Master Yang, sit down for a while."

"It's okay, just go and do your work."

Shen Changnian's medical skills have already been spread from Zao Village to the villages with a radius of hundreds of miles. He is not only highly skilled in medicine, but also kind to others. The villagers come to him for any intractable diseases. There are many villagers who come here every day, and some of them know where he lives. People from the county towns have to come to the village to ask him to see a doctor.

Although he has not been in the village for a long time, he is already regarded as a highly respected figure in the village, and the village head also respects him very much. Of course, it is also the reason why Yang Ye recommended him here.

The villagers love Shen Changnian, and they send melons, fruits, vegetables, rice and grains from time to time. Many villagers who have no money to pay for medical expenses pay with food, eggs and poultry. With Shen Changnian here, who still loves to see those bad-tempered doctors who love to take advantage of others? Jia Changchun's life was not easy.

It was just a cup of tea. Shen Changnian, who came back from the neighboring village, saw the carriage parked outside the village, and knew that it might be someone from the Yang family. He hurried home, and the boy took the medicine box for him at the door. Ye and his wife really came.

"Grassman, see your lord!" Shen Changnian hurriedly saluted Yang Ye.

Yang Ye helped him up: "How can Dr. Shen be so gifted that he still performs such a great gift?"

"I heard that Mr. Yang was the champion of high school, and I wanted to congratulate him in the county seat, but there are so many outpatient visits these days that I have no time to go to the county seat."

"Doctor Shen practices medicine to save lives, that's the most important thing."

After the two exchanged a few words, Yang Ye gave the things he had brought to Shen Changnian. He was sure about what he liked, Shen Changnian was really happy when he received the medicinal materials, so he gave A Xi a pulse.

"Although Fu Lang's body is not strong, his fetus is very stable. As long as he maintains a comfortable mood, the fetus will be fine. Cao Min is giving Fu Lang a prescription for anti-pregnancy."

After getting the prescription, the couple were very happy. Both parties were very happy. After finishing their work in the village, the village head and Shen Changnian sent Yang Ye to the entrance of the village together. They watched the people get into the carriage before talking. go back.

Back at the house, Xu Qiuhe's family came to the house, Yang Ye hadn't seen Yunye for a long time, picked up the three-year-old boy, and found that the boy was not only tall, but also very strong, and he was quite heavy to hold , there is already Xinghuai's heroic spirit in his eyebrows and eyes, he loves to put on a face like his father, looks milky and serious, it is really interesting, he also wanted to tease the little boy, but he looked at the pink and tender After Xiao Xiang came out, she broke free from his embrace and wanted to play with the little girl.

"I heard from Axi earlier that you hurt your leg, how are you doing now?"

Xing Huai waved his hand: "I went to an unfamiliar forest before, and was thrown by a bear. Thanks to Ah Xi, Dr. Shen was invited, and now there is no serious problem."

"Doctor Shen's medical skills are reassuring. Only now, Axi and I went to the village to find him."

At the beginning of June, when the weather was hot, Yang Ye and Axi returned to the capital.

Before returning to Wenyang County, Yang Ye bought a house slave in the capital. They left for almost a month, and now the residence in the capital has been repaired and cleaned.

Yang Ye didn't spend much money on repairing the house, he just ensured that the house would not leak when it was windy or rainy, and he didn't bring any expensive things when he came from the county. It looks very simple.

Living in a new place was difficult at first, and Yang Ye never planned to live in the official residence, before the child was born, he would definitely buy a new residence in the capital.

On the [-]th, Yang Ye ushered in the court for the first time in his life.

The time for Ji Chao to go to court is very early. In the summer and autumn seasons, he starts to go to court at four o'clock in the morning, that is, at six o'clock in the morning. The place where he lives is only four to ten minutes away from the Forbidden City. Another full 10 minutes, this one-way is half an hour.

In order not to be late for the court, it is not acceptable to be stuck for half an hour. In case of any unexpected situation along the way, you have to relax for at least 10 minutes. When you are at home, you have to wash and tidy up carefully, take a bath and burn incense. Looking like a rough guy, he had to ensure that he appeared in the best manner in front of the emperor and his officials. After such a toss, Yang Ye had to get up in the middle of the night.

The oil lamp was lit at home, and Axi slept lightly the night before. Firstly, she felt uncomfortable sleeping in a new place after having a child, and secondly, the matter of Yang Ye's going to court was hanging over her mind, so she couldn't sleep well. Yang Ye When he got up lightly, he also got up.

Yesterday, I scented Yang Ye's court clothes, and when Yang Ye came out of the bath, he put the court clothes on him with his own hands. Although he had already met the emperor, he had to meet civil and military officials before entering the court hall. It's very important, I'm afraid that Yang Ye will be sloppy and have trouble with his manners.

"Don't get up so early in the future, how can the child bear such hard work."

Yang Ye tidied himself up, looked at Axi with a trace of tiredness on his face, and put him back on the bed before going out.

But Ah Xi didn't want to lie on the bed, he grabbed Yang Ye's hand, got up and took the coat hanging on the hanger, put it on his body, and said: "Ah Ye is going to court for the first time, I want to watch Ah Ye at the door. "

Yang Ye gathered Axi's coat, and he was only wearing a set of white obscene clothes, which was very thin, and his waist could be seen to be thicker than before, so he stroked Axi's stomach lightly: "Okay. "

In the hazy night, the summer morning breeze wrapped in the breath of dew brushed his face, bringing a coolness, he waved with Axi at the corner of the alley, looked at the man with black hair hanging down his shoulders and smiled softly, he Feeling warm in my heart, I also became more awake, and walked towards the main street with big strides.

For the civil and military officials of the imperial court, the power and status of the officials can be seen from the distance of their residences. They are often near the official residences of the Forbidden City. They are either the celebrities in front of the emperor or the residences of the emperor's relatives. His current residence is actually not bad. , more than the upper than the lower, located in the middle of the lot.

The residences of Li Cheng and Wen Han are farther away than his, but Li Cheng never went to live in the residence assigned by the court. In order to reward his son for getting the second place in the exam, Li's father bought a three-admission private house in the capital with all his money. Yang Ye went to visit it two days ago, the facilities inside are complete and there are many servants. Father Li prepared this private house early in the morning, but it has just been transferred to Li Cheng's name now.

After this, Yang Ye was once again shocked by the family background of the Li family. No wonder Li Cheng contradicted Song Tingyou from time to time, relying on the Song family's high-sighted virtues, he would still be kind to Li Cheng.

On the way to the capital city on foot, Yang Ye thought about it a lot. The capital street in the early morning is already very noisy. This is the time when the night market and the lunch market are replaced. The voice of talking is not as loud as in the day and night, but the stalls are open. The sound of bang bang is flat, and it is even louder in the long street.

Yang Ye walked fast, and along the way, he saw many officials going to court, some were rushing to the direction of the Forbidden City, and some were eating wontons and porridge at the small stalls that had just been set up. Among the nine grades of officials, officials of the fifth rank and above only go to the court every day, and those below the fifth rank go to the court on the first, sixth, and fifteenth day of the first lunar month, three days a month .

He saw that those who were eating breakfast in front of the breakfast booth with a calm expression were all officials above the fifth rank, and those who were in a hurry were usually officials below the fifth rank. , the grasp of time is also more stable, naturally it is not like the panic of the small officials in the morning court three times a month.

When Yang Ye looked at the appearance of this modern school of work, there was always an inexplicable smell in it.

When Yang Ye entered the Forbidden City and went outside the main hall, the eunuch led him to wait in the side hall. At this moment, there were already many officials waiting inside, and when he entered, several old-fashioned officials greeted him and saluted, all of whom were lower than his official rank. Among the seven or eight rank officials, two of them worked in the Hanlin Academy. He exchanged polite greetings with them, and walked towards Wen Han who was standing in the innermost corner and looking at him.

"You still came early, just like you did in the county school."

Wen Han said: "I've just arrived, I'm afraid that Brother Yang will still step on the same way as in the county school in the past. I don't know where Brother Li is now."

"Don't worry, how can you keep up with the court when you go to school?" After all, being late to school will be scolded twice by the teacher at most, and being late to court will be punished with a salary, and if you are late for more than three times, you will still be punished. He doesn't believe that Li Cheng dares to be late .

As soon as the words fell, Li Cheng was also led by the eunuch, and the two laughed, "Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will be there."

When the three of them gathered together, there were many eyes. As a newcomer, it was reasonable for everyone to look at them. They also ignored it in peace and contentment. However, within a quarter of an hour, Eunuch Qiao came to announce the officials to the court.

According to the order of virtue, a row of four people, divided into two columns, entered the main hall one by one. All the officials put the facing board in their hands on the crook of their left hand and closed their hands. Kowtowing, a set of complicated procedures is completed before officially going to court.

Self-introduction is indispensable for a new official to enter the post. The emperor who was placed on the dragon chair mentioned something, and Yang Ye came out of the team knowingly, and said that he would serve the court after returning to the emperor. It was Li Cheng and Wen Han.

There is nothing important at present, the main purpose of the morning court today is to let the officials meet the newcomers. After some routine words and procedures, everyone kneel down again and send the emperor away from the palace. It took nearly an hour, and there were too many red tapes.

The end of the morning court does not mean that the officials can go home, but that they will go to their own posts to do things.

Yang Ye worked in the Imperial Academy. His main job was to record the emperor's words and deeds, master the history of the country, and draft some ceremonial manuscripts, which was equivalent to the emperor's secretarial organization.In fact, when there are no major national affairs, it is relatively free. There are no major ceremonies to be held, and the emperor has not issued any major edicts. Currently, we are only revising the history of the country.

On the first day I took office, someone took me with me to do things, and everything went smoothly. Sitting on a pear wood chair to write and copy books was much more comfortable than kneeling in the hall in the early morning. It was noon in a while, and I had a good time. After the meal, the afternoon passed quickly, and Shen Shi could leave, that is, between three o'clock and five o'clock.

Yang Ye figured it out, the working hours this day are not very long, except for coming early in the morning, everything is okay, anyway, he doesn't have to go to the morning court every day, if he doesn't go to the Imperial Academy at [-] o'clock in the morning, it will be fine .

The fly in the ointment is that Song Tingyou is also an official of the Hanlin Academy, and he is also a high-ranking official who is out of his reach, but an official like him doesn't have much time to talk to him, and besides, when the young master Fu is a puppet, he will also hang around in the Imperial Academy. For this reason, there is no need to worry too much.

The author has something to say: Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone!
