The Lonely Family in the Red Chamber

Not long after the palace examination, the results came out. As a first-class, naturally there is preferential treatment, as usual, he was directly awarded an official, which is nothing more than editing and writing by the Imperial Academy, but starting from the second-class, there is an exam, which is also customary. If the Hanlin Academy wants to select a good scholar, it has to take an exam first.Entering the Imperial Academy is not a one-time job. In the future, no matter whether you want to gain qualifications in the Imperial Academy or want to gain some experience in the Sixth Ministry, you must pass the relevant examinations.And for those who didn't pass the exam, they naturally have to take several exams in various ways. They are awarded officials according to their specialties. If they can't get ahead in this kind of exam, then don't even try to get ahead. Be obedient Find an internship in a similar department, and wait until you pass it in the future.

Such a rule is just an extra exam for the new Jinshi. What's more, for some Jinshi who are not of high background, it is more fair. A good start, therefore, not only did not cause any backlash, but won the unanimous praise of scholars.If anyone objects, wouldn't it mean that he is just a fool and can't stand the test!

Tu Jingnian did not plan to abolish the imperial examination system, but changed it to civil service examination. The imperial examination system can last for thousands of years, so it has its advantages. At least, the imperial court only needs to be in charge of the county level, so there will not be too many redundant officials. , the cost of governance will be relatively low, otherwise, with the current productivity, dozens of people will have to support one civil servant, and the national finances will have to go bankrupt!

Therefore, Tu Jingnian just spent more time cultivating the administrative ability of these Jinshi Juren, so that they would not know anything and take up the post as soon as their eyes were darkened. That would easily add to the chaos.

The world is peaceful now, and everything is running in a good direction. Tu Jingnian himself is not a person who likes authoritarianism. Anyway, with the cabinet, what he needs is to be a decision maker. As for technical matters, Tu Jingnian seldom does it himself now, but only occasionally mentions a few words.What's more, many of his thoughts were restricted by his previous life, and sometimes he was not as open as some people these days.In particular, Tu Jingnian implemented an almost naked exploitation of those craftsmen in the eyes of later generations, but in the eyes of this era, it is simply a generous reward system that makes people grateful. Therefore, those craftsmen played an extremely outstanding subjective initiative , all kinds of whimsical ideas emerge one after another, and many of them are indeed quite innovative. Tu Jingnian only needs to see the results.In the end, not long after the palace examination was over, Tu Jingnian was at leisure.

The life of the emperor is naturally much better than the life of the prince. He is now dedicating power to be diligent, and delegating power is to know people and be good at responsibility. Anyway, no one dares to confront him. His life is much easier, so naturally he feels that the emperor Such a small place in the city is really boring.

Tu Jingnian didn't have the intention of making a southern tour, but he also wanted to go out to relax, so he thought of going out of the palace in disguise.

Tu Jingnian opened his mouth to Emperor Chengqing, and Emperor Chengqing also expressed his desire to go out for a walk. The life of the Supreme Emperor is more boring than that of the emperor. Now that Emperor Chengqing is in good health, it is almost impossible to see that he had a stroke before. He was almost like an ordinary old man, so when he heard that he planned to leave the palace for a day, he naturally didn't want to stay in the palace. After hearing this, Amin and Ayang on the other side clamored to follow. In the carriage going out from Suzaku Gate, there were four people from three generations, grandparents and grandchildren.Of course, there are quite a few people following behind to serve, but except for Cao Anping Quanfu and a few guards on the surface, the rest of them are secretly protecting.

To be honest, the number of times that Tu Jingnian has been out of the palace over the years is really one of a handful, and the few times when he greeted the driver must be added, but the meeting had to be cleared. Wait for a long time, and then come back from the avenue of the Qing Dynasty like Emperor Chengqing, can that be regarded as going out of the palace?It can only be counted as official business, not even a business trip!

Amin and Ayang have never been out since they grew up so big. Originally, Emperor Chengqing wanted to take them with him during his southern tour, but at that time they were too young to be at ease. Therefore, this was their first time. Going out of the palace to play, sitting in the carriage, his face is full of excitement.A Ming is quite reserved, and A Yang is about to stick his head out the window and poke his head out!

Tu Jingnian pulled Ayang back without any hassle. He had just left the imperial city, and he could still see the vermilion palace walls in the future, and there were a large number of mansions of powerful officials in front of him. What's there to see.

Emperor Chengqing was also joking: "Speaking of which, Ah Li, you were similar to me when I left the palace. You kept looking outside, and I was worried that you would fall!"

Tu Jingnian twitched his lips: "How many years ago is the old Huang Li, father don't think I don't remember, just smear me in front of the two children, I definitely didn't do that at that time!"

Emperor Chengqing laughed: "You need to save face in front of me! Please, please, I won't say anything!"

Amin and Ayang snickered, Ayang pulled Tu Jingnian's sleeve and asked, "Father, where shall we go first?"

"Don't call me Huangfu outside, call me Daddy, call me Grandfather and Grandpa, you know?" Tu Jingnian reminded, "You guys came out in a hurry in the morning, so you just had a few snacks, let's find a place to have breakfast first , and then I’ll take you to go shopping, and you’ll have to follow Dad and Grandpa closely for a while, don’t run around, you know?”

I also told Emperor Chengqing about this itinerary. Although Emperor Chengqing was also worried about the white dragon fish suit, what happened, but think about how many guards are with him, let alone just take a look in the inner city, and will not mix with fish and dragons. It should be no problem to go to the outer city, so I agreed, but secretly mobilized a lot of people to take care of the outside.

Tu Jingnian really made a lot of preparations in advance, just like in later generations, where to go to play, first look for strategies on the Internet, before Tu Jingnian also asked someone to inquire about what is more distinctive in the inner city Eat at the storefront, and then make a rough itinerary, just follow this.

At this moment, the carriage went to an alley called Sanhuai Lane. There is a Zhang Ji over there, which is a time-honored brand. It opened a small restaurant there when it was in the previous dynasty. It made mutton soup and donkey meat. Biscuits are famous far and wide.It was almost winter now, and it was time to eat mutton soup, so Tu Jingnian directly asked people to come here first.

Although it is not early at this moment, but because it is a holiday, there are still many people on Zhang Ji's side, and the tables outside are almost full of people. It's not luxurious, but it has an extraordinary bearing. Thinking about it, it's from a rich family, so a waiter hurried up to greet it: "A few guests wait for a while, and I will make a table for the younger ones!" The smiling face made several regular customers share the table, and then quickly cleared the table, leading Tu Jingnian and the others to sit down, Cao Anping and Quan Fu asked Tu Jingnian what Emperor Chengqing meant, ordered the meal, and then stood up Serving on the side made many diners look sideways.Among those who like Zhang Ji's craftsmanship, there are also many rich families, but most of these families call their servants to buy and bring them back to the house, but few come here in person.Although Zhang Ji's place is in the inner city, most of the people who often eat here are ordinary people from the market, with some spare money, but they are not the kind of rich and powerful.Now that I met these few people, they were obviously from top-notch families. Naturally, these people became curious, but they didn't deliberately come over to inquire, but there were people whispering in private.

Emperor Chengqing had never eaten at this kind of shop that was close to a roadside stall, but he didn't feel uncomfortable, and looked at everything around him calmly.The air is filled with the strong aroma of mutton soup and freshly baked sesame seed cakes. Amin and Ayang are also looking at it curiously. Amin is now growing up. Jiang ate a bowl of rouge rice porridge, and he was already hungry now, but when he smelled the aroma, he felt even more hungry.

The food was served here very quickly, and after a short wait, a waiter came over with a tray containing four large celadon bowls, and another waiter brought a large plate with donkey meat pancakes.

Cao Anping and Quanfu tried the poison without any trace, and waited attentively on the sidelines. Emperor Chengqing thought about it, and waved his hand: "Going out, you don't have to talk about so many rules, you also find a place to eat first Well, I have to go elsewhere for a while!"

Naturally, Cao Anping and the others couldn't make any big moves in front of these people. Therefore, after thanking the master for his kindness, they also found a seat nearby and sat down, but they still kept paying attention. here.

The taste of the mutton soup is very delicious and rich, and the sesame seed cakes are also delicious and delicious. Emperor Chengqing tasted it twice and praised: "This place is really good, it has a bit of taste, and the things in the dining room are fine. , but it’s not as original as it is!”

Tu Jingnian said with a smile: "Then when the son asks someone to come here to learn from the scriptures, it is also a son's filial piety to add a cook to you!"

Emperor Chengqing nodded solemnly: "That's a good idea, this sentence is what I like today!"

The four grandparents and grandchildren here are eating and communicating in soft voices. Although the other diners are curious about the few of them who are obviously born in wealth, they just have a look at them, and they just gossip about some short-term gossip about their parents. , they also listened with great interest.

The gossip in the market is nothing more than that, the parents of the family are short-lived, the man of the family is afraid of his wife, the man of the family raises children outside, the children of the family are promising, and the daughter of the family always returns home after getting married. My natal family... Then, I heard someone laughing at the table next to me: "What's so rare about these, but I heard an interesting one here!"

"What's interesting, let's talk about it, the big deal, I'll invite you for breakfast today!" The person next to him urged.

The man smiled strangely: "I'm so sorry, boss, bring me two more biscuits!" Seeing that the face of the person next to him was distorted, he smiled and said in a low voice: "Just two biscuits That's all, if I hadn't always played well with you, I wouldn't have dared to tell you!"
