Ancient Fortune Records

The scenery of Prince An's Mansion is very beautiful, with carved beams and painted buildings, and corridors and waists. It looks majestic and exquisite.After Shen Li finished his breakfast, he spent the whole morning going around the garden. Shen Li didn't know why Shizi didn't discuss business with him, but he didn't want to bring it up suddenly if Shizi didn't mention it, so as not to be suspected of claiming credit.

Shen Li carefully watched the palace, Wen Bohe smiled and said: "Like this kind of house? It's a pity that I can't send you, I still have a good house in Chang'an, why don't I give you the title deed today, so that you don't want to be greedy for what my father built Palace."

Looking at his expression, Shen Li didn't know if Shizi was joking, or if he really wanted to give him the house, "Can I buy a small house with money?"

Wen Bohe shook his head: "All the suitable houses have been picked out, and there are still some small houses left, but some of them are not very good in Feng Shui."

Shen Li asked curiously, "Why is Feng Shui bad?"

Wen Bohe said: "This is the house that was sealed up by those killed Beijing officials, so no one is willing to buy it, for fear of bad luck."

Shen Li didn't take it seriously, what bad luck would there be if he could become an official?I didn't expect the son to be superstitious, but this is a common problem of the ancients, and it is understandable.

Wen Bohe knew that Shen Li was slandering him, so he was not angry, and at noon, he just took him out of the courtyard to see the prosperity of the capital.There are wine shops everywhere in Kyoto. Merchants get a lottery issued by the imperial court to make a certain amount of wine. The capital is the place where there is the least shortage of food, so the control over wine is not so strict.

But Shen Li can't drink, so naturally he can't go to the wine shop.At this time, there were still geisha singing and dancing in restaurants. Of course, Wen Bohe didn't want to take children to that kind of place. He just found a clean and elegant teahouse and sat on the second floor overlooking the main street. Next grade tea.

Shen Li doesn't drink tea, but only eats refreshments. The refreshments here are both meat and vegetables, and the names are all nice.

I saw that the prince reported the name of the snacks with tea very skillfully: "Steamed with immortals, meat soup, lotus meat pie, honey puff pastry, carved honey fried, and fragrant fruit. He doesn't drink tea, you serve it. Give him a pot of Qiu Ninglu, the taste will be slightly sweeter."

Shen Li was a little embarrassed, because the son actually saw that he likes to eat sweets. I am ashamed to say that after living in modern times for so many years, he didn't pay much attention to food, but in ancient times, when he became a child, he just He especially loves to eat sweets. If he was not afraid of damaging his teeth, he would definitely not be able to control his appetite.

The vegetarian teas ordered by Wen Bohe are all sweet, and the meat teas are also sweet. Qiu Ninglu is not sweet, but has a very light taste. It has the scent of autumn chrysanthemum and sweet-scented osmanthus. It only tastes fragrant. It is overflowing and can instantly remove the greasy taste of sweets.

"really not bad!"

Wen Bohe looked at Shen Li's bulging cheeks, and for some reason, felt the urge to keep a pet.He remembered that the third prince raised a rabbit when he was a child, and he looked like Shen Li when he ate. He used to think that the third prince had no masculinity, but he actually raised animals only for young ladies. Now he knows the joy of raising herbivorous animals.

Shen Li's hair also looked soft, and the way he ate obediently made him want to touch Shen Tong's head.

But he just twirled his fingers, resisting the urge to be rude.

The outside of the teahouse was very lively, but such excitement still did not overwhelm the voices inside the teahouse.

A group of Confucian scholars wearing jade crowns talking loudly came from the next door. The compartments of the teahouse were all separated by curtains, and the curtains were rolled up to both sides, so Shen Li could hear the loud volume clearly. They The body shape can also be seen very clearly.Those young people are talking about state affairs, which should be a level that the children of the aristocratic family can touch.The consumption of this teahouse is extremely high, and scholars from poor families do not easily come here for gatherings.

"They are Jinshi who have been recommended and passed the internal examination of the gentry. They only need to be appointed by the court before they can embark on a real official career. Maybe after a few years, some of them will become important ministers in the court."

"Internal exam? Is it difficult?" Shen Li knew that in this world, there was a big difference between poor family candidates and noble or gentry candidates. The exam time and difficulty were not equal, and the admission ratio was also different.

Wen Bohe nodded: "It's different from what you imagined. Maybe you think that the children of aristocratic families rely on the protection of their elders to become officials, and the exams are easier than those from poor families. In fact, the education these people have received is beyond your imagination. So the exam will not be very easy, and the scope of the exam is much wider than that of the poor, which is the arrogance of the aristocratic family. But even if they fail the exam, they still have a way to become an official, so the imperial exam, for them, Whether it’s difficult or not, it’s just a decoration.”

Display?Shen Li shook his head.Because of the arrogance of the gentry, they will not allow others to disagree with their abilities, coupled with the ruler's promotion, the final outcome is still to participate in the imperial examination together.In the end, although family status is the main factor for becoming a high-ranking official, there will not be much difference between ordinary local officials, gentry and poor families.According to the current development, such a process may not even take 50 years.

Suddenly a gentle voice sounded behind Shen Li: "Why, Shen Tong is envious of those Jinshi next door, do you want to become an official in the court? Haha, it is not impossible, you are still young, from now on, study hard , it may not be impossible to enter the court as an official and serve the court. Officials in the world are all talented people, this is the foundation of a country! If you don’t want to take the Jinshi examination, you can also be an official, does Shen Tong have this intention?”

Shen Li was taken aback, "Officials in the world are the foundation of a country? Isn't it 'people-oriented'?"

Prime Minister Xiao frowned: "How do you say that?"

"The people are the most important, the society is second, and the king is the least. Have you never learned this?" Shen Li was a little puzzled. There is nothing wrong with what is said in "Mencius".

Prime Minister Xiao was shocked.

Wen Bohe stood up and interrupted them: "Prime Minister, why are you here?"

Prime Minister Xiao cupped his hands: "I was about to pay a visit, but I learned that you brought Shen Tong here for tea, so I cheekily came over to drink some tea."

After Shen Li saw the ceremony, he was very curious about the second in command of Dazhao. He was actually a handsome and beautiful uncle, and his frown was very seductive. Although he was not as good as Shizi, he was the second most beautiful person he had ever seen in this world.

Prime Minister Xiao asked, "Where did you see this sentence?"

Shen Li was about to answer when Wen Bohe suddenly stuffed him with a piece of lotus meat pie, making him speechless for a while.Shen Li looked at Wen Bohe and suddenly realized something.Isn't it true that the fictional world is so foolish that it doesn't even have "Mencius"?Then what he learned from Mr. Lin...

Suddenly, he broke out in a cold sweat, yes, he was confused, he had read "Mencius" in modern times, how had he ever learned it here?

Trying to control my expression, I finished eating a piece of meat pie.

Prime Minister Xiao smiled, and didn't ask any more questions, just sat down to have tea with them, and wrote two small poems praising the tea from time to time, Shen Li sighed in his heart, literati are all elegant people!

Xiao Xiang finally talked about the serious matter: "Shen Li, Your Majesty ordered you to enter the palace for an audience in two days. Your Majesty takes pity on you for being young, and asked me to bring two palace servants to do your homework for you. When the time comes, you can enter the palace with them. There is a follow-up."

Shen Li hurriedly thanked him, he was worrying about whether he should ask Shizi to accompany him that day, and it was difficult to speak, he really fell asleep and came to give him a pillow.

In the afternoon, Shen Li went around with Wen Bohe, and spent money to buy a lot of new things in the capital. He also bought two sets of gold-headed noodles for his mother. The whole set cost 50 taels, which is considered a mid-range luxury.Because the palace is a little far away from where they were visiting, they had to rush back before the curfew, otherwise, even if his thigh was the eldest son, he would be caught by Zhi Jinwu, and it would be troublesome at that time.

After returning, I didn't see the prince or concubine either, it is said that they went to burn incense.

Wen Bohe told all the attendants to retreat, and then asked Shen Li: "What kind of ghost are you? Are you here to practice?"

Shen Li Erzhang was puzzled: "What kind of ghost?"

Wen Bohe was a little irritable. If this person is a ghost, it really makes sense: he is a young man with strange strength, but he is also good at using his wits, making many things that don't exist, and saying many things that people here have never heard.Moreover, if some words are known by His Majesty, how should it end? 'Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it' Is this something anyone can say?Fortunately, he read the letter in advance and erased all those treacherous words, but he didn't check for a while, and was almost exposed by this stupid elf today.

Shen Li looked at Wen Bohe's expression of "show yourself, I see through you", and didn't know how to explain it.

Shen Li sighed, "It's not a ghost, it's just that I was born to remember some things. What I said in front of the prime minister just now is what I remember from my innate memory. It was said by Mencius. I remember many words in his life."

Wen Bohe had a clear face, isn't this a ghost?

"Don't worry, I'll keep it secret. Don't show your feet anymore, Your Majesty didn't say that."

For the first time, Shen Li knew that some people who appeared to have facial paralysis were actually brain tonic emperors.

The drums in Chang'an City start at five o'clock in the morning, that is, at three o'clock in the morning. When the drums sound, people who are light sleepers don't want to continue to sleep.Shen Li entered the palace for an audience today, and got up early with the sound of drums.It was five o'clock in the modern times when he went to the court. He washed up and had breakfast, and then reviewed the etiquette and process of entering the palace to meet the emperor, and the time was almost up.

The eunuch who delivered the decree came to the palace to send a message, telling him to face the saint, and the two palace servants around him followed him every step of the way, as if they were afraid that something might happen to him.

In a feudal society, it goes without saying what monarchy means. Under the palace walls that can block the sky and the sun, Shen Li clearly realizes that he is really small. Even if he changed the fate of many people, he is An ant that can be deprived of life immediately if someone says 'cut'.

Therefore, meeting the emperor in Chang'an this time is really an adventure. If he is not unable to resist the order, he really does not want to have close contact with the ruler.

Of course, judging from the emperor's previous performance, this should be a reliable emperor.

"Tell Shen Li to see you!"

Shen Li took a deep breath, stepped into the corridor, and approached the grand hall.
