Jinghong Building

".Wuchang Prefecture, Hubei Province, is equipped with nine intern officials.

Hanchuan County: Wang Hongru, Li Yun;

”

Officials of the Ministry of Personnel loudly announced the list of dispatches to various places. Whoever he reads, the person who is read by the name will be out. When all the staff in the palace are in place, another official will issue them the identity document. After receiving the ID certificate, the Ministry of War sent special soldiers to **** them out of the capital three days later.

Chen Yao was thinking a lot, but she couldn't help but **** her ears. She knew she was going to be given up, but she still felt a little lucky in her heart.

". Chengdu Prefecture, Shu, is equipped with 18 intern officials.

Huayang County: Li Wei, Gao Shilan;

Shuangliu County: Qin'anbang, Huang Yinyue;

Renshou County: Lu Shi, Wen Fengnian;

Jintang County: Guo Xuyang, Chen Yao;

Neijiang County: Ma Rufei, Qian Huiru”

After reading the list of Chengdu Prefecture, the official counted and frowned. Another official began to issue identity documents.

"Chen Yao, did Chen Yao, who went to Jintang County, come?"

Chen Yao, who was standing at the end of the crowd, suddenly heard someone calling her name. Hey, did she hear it wrong? Really calling her?

Just now she seemed to hear her name, but she couldn't believe her ears, and she was embarrassed to ask others, worried that she was not her, but she walked over and was ridiculed, so she stood there without move.

This time, everyone's eyes were all looking at her. There was no way. Among the few female Jinshi, she had been in newspapers. She couldn't be low-key. She didn't know anyone, but many people knew her.

"Chen Yao!" The official frowned. If the little girl can pass the Jinshi exam, she must not be a fool. Why do she look stupid? He looked at the list again. There was another Guo Xuyang from Jintang County, and he would like to remind Guo Xuyang later. Take a look at Chen Yao more, young girl, don’t be abducted.

Chen Yao blushed and walked to the front awkwardly. When she heard the official say, "When you go out, be more alert. Whether you are on the way or when you arrive, don't go out alone."

When Chen Yao and the same Jinshi walked out of the Ministry of Personnel together, the warm sunshine shone on her body, Chen Yao suddenly realized that she had not been given up. After she told the truth, He Dajia forgave her!

She suddenly knelt down and kowtowed three times in the direction of Laomofang Hutong.

All the other intern officials were shocked, but Guo Xuyang, who came out, suddenly realized that no wonder the adult just now wanted to stop him and ask him to take care of Chen Jinshi more often. He still found it strange that Chen Jinshi's ranking is still in his place. How could he take care of the front?

Now he understood that Chen Jinshi was indeed different from normal people. Well, he wanted to take good care of people. He heard that those kidnappers like to attack young girls. If Chen Jinshi was abducted by the kidnappers, He also has to take responsibility.

Chen Yao didn't know that there was a Guo Jinshi who had made up his mind and would rather be abducted by himself than lose Chen Jinshi.

Three days later, this group of new Jinshi left the capital, and the Ministry of War mobilized an army of 10,000 people, divided into four routes, escorting these new Jinshi to all directions.

Before leaving Beijing, Chen Yao came to Mrs. Renyi's grave again. This time, she came to say goodbye to her great-grandmother.

"Great-grandmother, the boss did not punish Shanshan. You are right. The boss is wise and wise, and can distinguish right from wrong. She will be a wise ruler.

My great-granddaughter is going to go to Sichuan for an internship. I will definitely study hard from my seniors and learn to be a good official. I will come to see you when my great-granddaughter's internship expires. ”

After leaving the capital, he got on the carriage to Shu. Chen Yao and three other female Jinshi took the same carriage. Among them, Chen Yao and Huang Yinyue were both going to Chengdu Prefecture, one of the other two went to Hanzhou and the other went to Jian. state.

Ke Qingman, who went to Hanzhou, suddenly looked at Chen Yao: "Chen Jinshi, what is your relationship with Zeng Ziqi in Hangzhou?"

Chen Yao was stunned. I wonder why Ke Qingman asked about this. She said, "I know you, but I'm not familiar with you."

Ke Qingman breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's good that you are not familiar with each other. I saw that you are all from Hangzhou and I was worried that you are classmates, so I asked this question."

Huang Yinyue, who was standing beside him, asked curiously: "Is the Zeng Ziqi you mentioned this year's sacrificial list? Where has he been assigned? Have you stayed in Beijing?"

When reading the list of people to various places that day, Huang Yinyue paid attention to the whereabouts of the top ten. She seemed to not remember mentioning Zeng Ziqi, so she suspected that he had stayed in the capital.

Ke Qingman looked around seriously, and another female Jinshi Zhang Xuelan smiled and said, "Don't keep it a secret. There are only four of us in this car. Don't worry, the soldiers outside will not eavesdrop on this."

Everyone laughed again. It is natural to love to listen to Bagua. Bagua people and Bagua souls, no matter whether you are ignorant of big words or are talented.

Ke Qingman cleared his throat and shared the news she heard: "You all know that Ke Qingfeng, who is ranked seventh, is my cousin."

"Ah? Really? Your family has two Jinshis? It's amazing, amazing!"

Ke Qingman bowed and said, "You're welcome, except for the two of us, our Ke family has only been the second best player two years ago. It's a little bit!"

Everyone

Well, I remember there was indeed a second-tier student named Ke, and it turned out that they belonged to them.

Ke Qingman finally got enough, and then he started the topic: "My aunt lives in the capital, but her family is full of female relatives. It is inconvenient for my cousin to live there, so I am the only one living in my aunt's house. My brother lives in the inn, and he just happens to live in the same inn as Zeng Ziqi. Yes, yes, that is the one you know, the one with four big red silk hangings in front of him. This year, there are four inns. Jinshi.

My cousin said that that day, several Jinyiwei came to the inn and took Zeng Ziqi away in front of them! ”

The other three were all shocked, Jinyiwei!

Why are they new Jinshi related to the Jinyiwei?

Ke Qingman continued, "My cousin and the other two Jinshi were both anxious, and it was difficult to go to the Jinyiwei to inquire about the news. It was not until the day before yesterday that Zeng Ziqi was sent back after we returned from the Ministry of Personnel. Guess what? His whole body was dirty and smelly, as if he had been caught from a cesspool!”

"Ah?" everyone exclaimed.

Only Chen Yao's heart moved. Calculate the day. It seemed that the day when Zeng Ziqi was taken away was the day when she went to see He Dadang.

Could it be

"Has he been beaten?" Huang Yinyue asked curiously. It was not her maliciously that the person who was arrested in the Jinyiwei would be good enough to be able to come out alive.

Ke Qingman shook his head: "My cousin said that although he was dirty, he was not beaten. He was not injured. He seemed to be seriously ill, haggard and dumb, as if he was scared."

"I have been captured by the Jinyiwei, how can I not be scared?" everyone said.

Chen Yao asked, "So he wasn't assigned?"

Ke Qingman nodded: "No, my cousin is kind, so he asked Zeng Ziqi to ask someone from the Ministry of Personnel to see if there is any chance, but Zeng Ziqi burst into tears and said that he was harmed by a woman. , and said that his future was ruined by that woman. Do you think this is very interesting? ”

Of course it was interesting. The man was captured by the Jinyiwei, but then he said he was ruined by the woman. Everyone was wondering what happened to Zeng Ziqi.

Chen Yao asked, "What about Zeng Ziqi still in the capital now?"

Ke Qingman said, "That man has some tricks. He cried for a day, and then went out clean and refreshed the next day. Yesterday, my cousin and two other Jinshi wanted to take him out for a drink together, after all From then on, he went his separate ways, but he didn't come back, so the three of them went by themselves. When they returned to the inn in the evening, they saw that Zeng Ziqi had already returned. "

Huang Yinyue was disappointed: "I thought he couldn't think so and went to the coal mountain to hang himself. Why did he come back?"

Everyone: Sister, your mentality is a little dark.

Ke Qingman said, "How come this man has a solution? He actually found an errand for himself. Some family invited him to work as a western class. There are 100 taels of shrines a year, and the rich people in the capital. There are so many things, you can even give me one hundred taels."

Zhang Xuelan shook her head and felt a little regretful: "So what about 100 taels of silver? He is a Chuanlu. Not to mention Chuanlu, even if he is a Jinshi like me, he has not become a teacher. He is not a famous person. Big Academy.”

Yes, for example, the Shenglin Academy where Yao Linlang works part-time is a famous large academy. It is said that Xu Qiuli would occasionally give a few lessons.

But Zeng Ziqi definitely did not go to such a large academy, but to be a Western Palace. Even if it was a Duke and Marquis’ House, it would have been reduced to his status.

Everyone felt it was a pity, but it had nothing to do with them after all. If the girls got together, there would be endless gossip.

"By the way, you know Tanhualang, he seems to have been captured by the son-in-law below the list."

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

"Really?"

Everyone soon had a new topic, and Zeng Ziqi's gossip turned into old news in a blink of an eye. Even Chen Yao began to recall the appearance of Tanhualang.

At this time, Zeng Ziqi was looking at the yard where he lived.

The yard is not big, but it is clean and neatly tidy. There is a cluster of cannas planted under the window, which is green, fat, red and thin, which is very interesting.

Xiang Fei's curtain was picked up from outside, and two maids walked in.

Both of them are sixteen or seventeen years old, one with pink face and peach cheeks, willow eyebrows and almond eyes, the other with a full moon, dimple smiles. Although they are maids, their clothes are not bad at all. Even in the century-old families in Hangzhou, they are afraid. There is no such a decent maid.

"The master asked us sisters to come and wait for Mr. Zeng, and I am Qingxing (Mr. Hongtao), to give the respect to the young master."

The two bowed down, and Zeng Ziqi hurriedly helped them up: "Zeng is here for the first time, and he will also have to thank the help of the two girls in the future."

Zeng Ziqi looked around the decorations in the room again, and her eyes finally fell on the two beautiful maids, and her original unwillingness was reduced by half at this moment.

He was not assigned, and he was not on the list of internships in various places.

This means that he, a Jinshi, has a name but no reality!

How could anyone take the Jinshi exam but not become an official?

It became a joke when it was spread!

Zeng Ziqi asked someone to inquire. All the places assigned by this group of Jinshi were not very good, because they were all Zhou Cangyue's territory, and some places were even barbarians.

Not only was Chen Yao not affected by the letter of complaint, she was also assigned to a relatively good Chengdu Prefecture.

Shu is the country of Tianfu. Although there are some poor places in Shu, Chengdu Prefecture is definitely a good place among good places. Chen Yao was assigned to Jintang County under Chengdu Prefecture. If you are lucky, you might be able to stay in the future. Chengdu Prefecture serves as an official.

This is really a big golden cake smashed from the sky. This is probably the best place to be distributed this year.

That **** Chen Yao is really cheap!

Thinking of his own situation and where Chen Yao was going, Zeng Ziqi wanted to write ten or eight letters of complaint. No, he wanted to make up a story and sell it to the storyteller in the teahouse, so he wrote that Chen Yao lived in In the temple, I secretly had a secret meeting with a scholar who also lived here under the moonlight, and made a private lifelong appointment.

Yes, just write this way, it is best to add the monks in the temple, such as talented women, scholars, and monks of flowers!

Zeng Ziqi was laying paper and grinding ink. When he was about to write, he suddenly remembered his experience in the imperial prison these two days. imperial prison, it was simply not the world, it was even more like an underworld than an underworld!

He just wrote a letter of complaint and was arrested by the Jinyiwei. If he ruined Chen Yao's reputation again, would those Jinyiwei come to arrest him?

Zeng Ziqi is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart. A person who can be a priest. If he is stupid, then this person is a fool.

He knew that the Jinyiwei would not arrest people casually, and must have followed the instructions from above. Since Chen Yao was safe and sound, what does this mean?

Either Chen Yao is not a member of the Jing family at all, or someone from above is protecting her.

If Chen Yao was not a member of the Jing family, why would he go to visit Mrs. Renyi’s grave and claim to be his great-granddaughter?

So Chen Yao must be a member of the Jing family. She is Jing Chongguang's daughter, the kind of person who can be confiscated and destroyed.

But Chen Yao is not only fine, but also receives preferential treatment. What does this mean?

It means someone above took care of her.

Who is that person?

Then it depends on who can command the Jinyiwei!

A name was about to come out, but Zeng Ziqi didn't dare to say it.

He Ran, He Dajia.

Zeng Ziqi suddenly felt a little regretful.

Why did he forget that the Duke Dingguo Mansion was over, but not only did Mrs. Meng have nothing to do, but also was named Mrs. Renyi. The Jing family's house in Jinling, half of which was the Women's Academy named by Mrs. Renyi, and the other half was the girl's academy. It is still the Mansion of Mrs. Renyi, and the statue of Mrs. Renyi is also enshrined in it.

And Mrs. Renyi’s coffin came to Beijing with the He Da family.

Mrs. Renyi refused to be buried in the ancestral tomb of the Jing family after she died. The Jing clan members dared not object at all. Why? Because this was He Ran's order, no one dared to say a word.

Zeng Ziqi regretted it, why didn’t he think of this? He clearly knew that He Ran respected Mrs. Renyi very much, so He Ran was likely to treat Mrs. Renyi’s great-granddaughter well.

She is just a great-granddaughter, not a male, and she can't cause trouble. He Ran might even point her to a good family in the future.

Zeng Ziqi regretted it very much. He found a fellow villager in Hangzhou whom he knew in the capital. This fellow villager showed him a clear path and he came here. (End of this chapter)
