Reborn the wonderful life of ancient times

The donation ceremony of Lin Zimo's family was very lively. People of the Lin surname opened the ancestral hall specially. One was for donation, and the other was for Lin Huaide to become an official in the court soon, and he was still a senior official from the fourth rank.

The sacrificial offerings were made with three animals and six grades, and none of them was sloppy. This was the highest honor and the biggest event in the Lin family since the beginning of the world.Even many outsiders came to watch the fun, everyone was envious, the patriarch's head was raised high, his waist was straight, and the previous patriarchs did not have his prestige.

Lin Huaide took his two sons to salute, burnt the rubbings of the letter of appointment he just got down to his ancestors, bid farewell with the priests, and stared at his appointment.In fact, Lin Huaide didn't say anything, but knew in his heart that he had today, all thanks to his youngest son. He didn't have doubts in his heart, but he was more grateful to God and his ancestors for giving him such a smart and capable son.He didn't want to get to the bottom of it, he just said in his heart: I hope the ancestors will bless his youngest son, if something bad happens, he would rather lose his life.

As October approached, everything in the family was arranged and a few servants were left to take care of them. The whole family went to Beijing with the motorcade of Ouyang's family.This time Ouyang's family came to Beijing with great momentum. Ouyang Zhi will also take the exam next year. Ouyang Shaohua is worried because his brother can't come back.

The two families brought a lot of things, especially the Lin family, the old lady and the Zhou family would have taken their chickens and ducks to Beijing if Lin Zimo hadn't stopped them.The official road is smooth and wide, so you don't have to hurry, which is the only advantage of being close to Beijing.

Because there are old people, I don’t rush on the road. I rest after walking forty or fifty miles every day. Even the old lady didn’t feel tired, and finally arrived in Tongzhou on the evening of No. 12.Seeing that it was getting late, the two families decided to stay at the Tongzhou station for one night, fearing that they would not be able to enter the city gate.

Originally, Yicheng said that he couldn't house these people, and the name of Ouyang's family didn't work here.Just as he was about to walk away helplessly to see if there were any other inns, Yicheng shot Lin Zimo with a glance, and was sweating from fright.This lord lived here with Prince Jing a few months ago. At that time, Prince Jing treated him very affectionately. In addition, Lin Zimo's black and yellow complexion was also suitable for these dignitaries, so he was deeply impressed by him.

He hurriedly greeted Lin Zimo.Nodding and bowing: "My lord, you are here to stay again, please come in." Lin Zimo was taken aback for a moment, understood, just to save the pain of running around: "This is all my family, didn't your lord just say that there is no yard?" Is it?" Yi Cheng said with a smile: "There really aren't many courtyards, and now the largest courtyard where the prince lived last time is still idle, and you servants are squeezed by the servants in the back."

It is said that it is a big courtyard, and it is also the courtyard where the second son entered. The Lin family lived in the inner courtyard with their female relatives, and the Ouyang family lived in the outer courtyard.While in a hurry, someone greeted with a loud voice: "Isn't this Brother Ouyang? Is this coming to Beijing?" Everyone hurriedly turned around, only to see a middle-aged man in his forties, leading someone to stand at the door where they were waiting , greeted with a smile.

Ouyang Shaohua greeted him with a laugh, bowed and saluted: "Who am I? So it's Mr. Zhao, long time no see, hello." The man also smiled and saluted: "Long time no see, this time you go, it's seven It’s been eight years.” Then, he introduced to a handsome boy of fourteen or fifteen years old who flashed out from behind: “This is my second son Zhao Yang, Brother Ouyang should remember.” After looking at it, followed by Ouyang Shaohua Ouyang Zhi saluted and said with a smile: "This is supposed to be your elder brother's nephew, and he still looks a bit like a child."

Ouyang Shaohua smiled and said: "No, time is not forgiving. Come on, let me introduce you. This is brother Lin Huaide, an official of the household department who is about to take office, and his family." Uncle Yongning, Uncle Zhao." Lin Huaide hurriedly brought his two sons forward to salute, and the female relatives had nowhere to hide. The old lady just nodded when she was old, and Mrs. Zhou saluted, then lowered her head. Covering his face with a veil, he hid behind the old lady.

Uncle Zhao also returned the gift: "Ha, I know, you are the land farming god." He stepped forward and took Lin Huaide's hand: "My brother has helped a lot, so that our sergeants can eat their stomachs, brother Brother, thank you." Lin Huaide blushed and murmured: "It's nothing, it's nothing, I also did my duty."

Lin Zimo really liked this hearty uncle, he was easy to deal with.Ouyang Shaohua said: "Uncle, is this out of Beijing?" Uncle Zhao said: "Yes, I have been ordered to inspect the north to see if those Tartars are dishonest." Then he invited: "I would like to invite you Why don't we meet by chance, Brother Ouyang and Brother Lin, let's go have a drink together." Lin Huaide and Ouyang Shaohua followed, and Zhao Yang, who was beside Uncle Zhao, glanced at everyone in the Lin family, nodded, and followed.

Lin Zimo is funny, before he even arrived in the capital, his father made friends and socialized, which was not bad, it was a good start.

After a few days of fuss in the mansion in the capital, he finally settled down.Lin Huaide reported to the Ministry of Household Affairs and was assigned a real job as an agricultural supervisor. In addition to the Minister of the Ministry of Accountancy and the Assistant Minister, Lin Huaide was considered a big boss in the Department of Agriculture, and he began his busy career as an official every day.

Because Lin Zihao and Ouyang Zhi had just arrived in Beijing, Lin Zimo and Lin Zimo went to visit their mentor, Mr. Chen.Mr. Chen is still a fourth-rank bachelor, and he is on duty in the Hanlin Academy. Because it is Qingshui Yamen, Mr. Chen's family is not as big as the Lin family.

Mr. Chen was very happy about the visit of these three people. He not only checked the homework of the two people, but also left a meal.At the banquet, Mr. Chen drank some wine and was a little tipsy. He asked the two proud disciples: "But have you got married?" Ouyang Zhi blushed and said, "My family booked me the house of the prefect of Suzhou two years ago. My daughter, we will get married after the spring test next year." Lin Zihao also blushed: "My family has not yet arranged a marriage for me, we will wait and see after the spring test next year."

Mr. Chen nodded: "The magistrate of Suzhou has always been well-known and has a good marriage. As for Zihao, go back and tell your family that I have a second daughter who is a direct relative. I wonder if your family is willing to be an in-law." Lin Zimo Seeing that the eldest brother's face was red and purple, he hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Thanks to Mr. Misfortune, let's go back and tell the adults at home that we will come to propose marriage for eldest brother in a few days."

What a rare good thing!Mr. Chen is not only a great Confucian with a good official reputation, but I heard that the second lady of the Chen family is also very virtuous and knowledgeable. Judging by Mr. Chen's appearance, his daughter is too ugly. What his family lacks is someone who can support the appearance .Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in Beijing, the elder brother's marriage would be settled.

When the two returned home, the family members were overjoyed. Lin Zihao will be 20 years old next year, and he is an older youth in the Han Dynasty.now finally

After settling down, the family felt relieved.The Zhou family immediately arranged for a matchmaker, went through the six ceremonies, and arranged engagement matters. They were extremely busy, and finally decided that in April next year, no matter whether Lin Zihao passed the exam or not, he would get married.

While he was in a hurry, Xiaoyan told him quietly: "Master, the prince just sent a message that he is back, please visit the palace tomorrow." Lin Zimo was overjoyed, and whispered: "He is back? Go directly to the palace?" Xiaoyan He also laughed and said: "Well, what An Xin came to pass on just now, can't be wrong." Xiaoyan said this, but she was worried, the master is a man, what should I do if this continues?

After dinner the next morning, I told my family and went to the palace. Since I had known Prince Jing for a long time, my family didn't suspect anything.As soon as they arrived at Prince Jing's Mansion, An Xin had been waiting there for a long time. When she saw Lin Zimo's carriage, she didn't let them get off. She opened the side door and rushed in. The four guards behind her reported to the chief guard.

The last time I came to the palace in a hurry, Lin Zimo didn't dare to take a closer look, but this time he looked at it, and it was really magnificent.When you enter the door, you will see the tall shadow wall, carved with dragons and phoenixes, turning around, the Yin'an Temple is resplendent in the distance, the glazed tiles on the high roof ridge are brilliant, and the white marble fence in front of the hall is white and dazzling.Green brick and tile houses with carved beams and painted buildings surround the two sides, and the marble floor is cleaned to reflect the shadows of people.

Taking a breath, Lin Zimo quietly asked An Xin who was leading the way: "Isn't it against the rules to build the palace like this?" An Xin smiled and said, "This is the palace built by the Holy Majesty for the prince himself. It's okay."

After turning two corners, I came to the door of the study where I saw Zhu Rui last time. There were seven or eight waiters standing quietly in the corridor. When they saw them coming, they hurriedly stepped forward and opened the curtain to report: "Young Master Lin has arrived. .” Nodding and bowing, Lin Zimo was invited in.Lin Zimo turned around and went in, An Xin grabbed the hand of Xiaoyan who was about to follow, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiaoyan, why don't we go to the side to have a bowl of tea and have a rest." Without any explanation, he took Xiao Yan away.

As soon as Lin Zimo turned around the screen, he was pulled into his arms and "kissed" for a dark night. The familiar smell made Lin Zimo gradually relax and sink together.After a long time, Zhu Rui let him go, hugged him and sat on the imperial concubine chair under the window, with his forehead against his forehead, and asked, "I haven't seen you for several months, do you miss me?" Lin Zimo finally decided , gave him an angry look: "What are you talking about?" But the black and yellow skin, coupled with this style, is really uncomfortable.

Zhu Rui shuddered, and quickly dipped the prepared cloth towel into the wine, and wiped Lin Zimo's face: "When we are together, don't touch this for anything." Lin Zimo asked with a "hehe" smile "Did you go out well this time?" Zhu Rui wiped him clean again with a warm cloth, looked at him carefully, and said, "It's okay, there is a group of bandits who took the opportunity to make trouble together, I wiped it out, and sent a pen Xiaocai." As he said, he reached out and took an exquisite box and opened it, and it was immediately dazzling with jewels.

Lin Zimo took a closer look and found that the box was full of thumb-sized pearls and large pieces of colorful gemstones.Zhu Rui handed it over: "This is a gift for you, keep it." Lin Zimo hurriedly pushed it away: "This is too precious, I can't take it." Zhu Rui pushed it over again: "Stupid, this is my trophy If you don’t give it to you, who will you give it to? Aren’t you going to save up a dowry for my younger sister? Give her some of it, and prepare the rest as a dowry when she marries me.”

Lin Zimo twisted him: "I'll talk nonsense, and I don't know what to do." Zhu Rui put the things down and pressed Lin Zimo down: "I'll talk about it later, we haven't seen each other for a long time, you have to comfort me Consolation me." He said and stretched out his hand directly.Lin Zimo hurriedly suppressed him, and mouthed out of the window: "People will know." Zhu Rui "kissed" him: "It's okay, I'm the only one living in the house, the general room has already been dismissed, and the children followed him Grandmother is in the palace, no one cares about us." As he spoke, the clothes had been thrown all over the floor, and the room was suddenly empty.
