imprinted you in my heart

The streets and alleys of Fandu are crowded with onlookers. They all want to see the demeanor of the champion, the second place, and the third prize. Some who have seen it follow behind and want to see it. road.

Most of the people in the bustling and bustling East Market and West Market in the past have lost half of their population, and some small traders have even taken their burdens to places with a lot of people and started doing business.

As soon as the morning was over, the Imperial Academy quickly posted the list of the top three in Fandu to the announcement offices in Fandu, so anyone in Fandu who paid a little attention to the imperial examination would know the names of the top three.

The second list was announced two days ago, those who did not win the list had already packed their bags and left Fandu, and those who won the list sent people to notify their families as soon as possible.

After exiting Chengtian Palace, Bu Qianxue and the others put on the sixth-rank official uniforms prepared by the Ministry of Officials and began to parade through the streets. Compared with the bustle on her side, the situation in Bufu was quite tense.

A group of officers and soldiers surrounded Bu's mansion and read out the decree in public. Bu Wuchen participated in the case of buying and selling imperial examination questions, embezzled and accepted bribes. He was sentenced to five years and all his property was fined.After the reading, everyone in the Bu family was allowed to leave quickly, and they were not allowed to bring anything except two sets of clothes, which scared Bu's wife, Jiang Li, and almost passed out.

Fortunately, with the loyal help of all the servants, Fangcai was not disturbed. According to the order, everyone took two sets of clothes, and reluctantly walked out of Bufu. Unexpectedly, when he was about to leave the mansion, the official sent her 20 taels of silver. I was very grateful when I learned that it was His Majesty Long En for the severance payment.

But it is more of a complaint against His Majesty today, because Jiang Li does not believe that an honest and responsible patriarch will do corruption and accept bribes, so she blames His Majesty for being unfair and wronging good people.

After Jiang Li left the mansion with more than 20 family members and servants, she stood at the door in a daze, unwilling to leave for a long time.

The Bu family has been officials for generations, they have served as high-ranking officials as well as minor officials, even if they have never been corrupt officials, not to mention Jiang Li doesn't believe it, even Bu Qianxue's grandmother and grandfather don't believe it, but His Majesty has issued an order, and they have to temporarily Leave the ancestral home that has been inhabited by generations.

Just when the whole family was about to leave, the official messenger from the government came and announced the good news to them. Bu Qianxue ranked second in high school and was appointed as the censor of the inspectorate. Only then did the Bu family have some hope.

As usual, Shi Min held an honor banquet for Jinshi in the Wenzhao Hall, which was bigger and more grand than the Luming Banquet held by the magistrate when the candidates were elected, second only to the state banquet. Officials of the fourth grade and above in the capital must also participate, and they can bring a family member with them.

Bu Qianxue originally wanted to go home, but because of the tight schedule and schedule, she didn't have time to go back at all. The spring breeze proudly crossed the street and returned to Zhongjing to wait for the banquet.

It wasn't until the Enrong Banquet started that Shi Min appeared with Grandma Huang. Although the grand banquet was grand, it was not an early dynasty after all, so Shi Min wore the emperor's ordinary clothes and a small purple crown on his head.

Although Zhao Huan is 85 years old, he is full of energy, has a ruddy complexion, and with a solemn hairstyle and clothing, he looks like an old lady who is only 70 or [-] years old.

Because Jinshi is the protagonist of the Enrong Banquet, the seat is on the left of Shi Min, and the ministers and family members are on the right. Seeing His Majesty and the Empress Dowager coming, they quickly stood up and saluted. As for why the Queen Mother did not come, it is beyond their control up.

Official banquets in Huaguo have always been divided into cases. Officials and their families sit at a table together. The top three in the current department have one person at a table, and sit on the left side closest to His Majesty.

Bu Qianxue, who finally sat in front, finally caught a glimpse of His Majesty's general appearance when His Majesty got up without courtesy, but unfortunately only saw a blurred appearance due to the lighting.

As usual, Shi Min said some opening remarks and announced the opening of the banquet. If it was not during the national mourning period, there would usually be singing and dancing, but now it is impossible, but she also arranged a sword dancing show, and the Secretary of Jiaofang was too busy. , and she doesn't want to support idlers.

She was not hungry, and she would stop for a while after eating two chopsticks. She looked at Grandma Huang calmly, and was very relieved to find that Grandma Huang was full of smiles. She looked at the cautious ministers below, smiled, and Indicated that Lu Guanchu can start dancing swords.

Bu Qianxue had been hungry for a whole day, and when His Majesty announced the opening of the banquet, she started to eat non-stop. She was also one of the most disregarded image-seekers at the banquet, and was one of the fastest eaters. She didn't slow down until there was a sword dancing performance. .

After the sword dance, Jiang Hechang went forward to toast to His Majesty. Before the banquet, the palace attendant told them about the process of the Enrong Banquet, what to do and what not to do.

When it was Bu Qianxue's turn to toast, she deliberately took an extra step forward. Although His Majesty's appearance was still vague, she had already seen what she wanted to see. No matter her figure or her vague appearance, she was very similar to Wen Heart.

She had been looking for Wen Xin for a long time, but unfortunately she couldn't find it. She would find that His Majesty might be Wen Xin, but she couldn't be happy because her heart had been lost, and it was full of longing, but now it seemed to be far away in the sky.

When did you fall in love with Wenxin?She didn't know either, but since the two met, she had been thinking about it, and it was unforgettable. She even dreamed of the two being together several times, and then she understood the meaning of love at first sight, and realized that it is so fast to really like someone.

Shi Mian saw Bu Qianxue's thoughts verbatim, she was surprised and sympathetic at the same time, surprised that the other party would like her, sympathizing with her might not get a reply, because even she herself didn't know if she would like her other people.

Moreover, Gaozu’s legacy states that queens are not allowed to participate in government affairs, and foreign officials, internal officials, palace servants, and forbidden soldiers are not allowed to be queens. It has become a rule. For the future, you must give up everything you have, leave the palace, and withdraw from the imperial army.

Regardless of Huaguo or the former dynasty, the queens of the past dynasties are generally from noble, scholarly, and official families. There are also commoners and merchants, but relatively few. Gaozu will have this legacy.

Bu Qianxue, who didn't know that her thoughts had been known by the person she was thinking about, returned to her desk like an eggplant beaten by frost, and drank a few more glasses without knowing it.

When the banquet was over, he was already a little drunk, and after searching for a long time outside the Dacheng Gate, he found Ban Yue and his servants in the corner, only to find that the sedan chair was gone, "What's the matter? Where is the sedan chair?".

Ban Yue, who had been holding back for a long time, became aggrieved and bitter when his lady asked him such a question, and even the other two servants had sad expressions on their faces.

"Don't care about suffering, tell me, what's going on?" Bu Qianxue sobered up after being cried by Ban Yue.

Bu Qianxue only found out that her mother had been arrested and imprisoned under the statements of the other two servants, and Bu’s house was confiscated, and nothing could be taken away. People, probably don't even have a place to live, so now the sedan chair is gone, and the carriage is gone.

Bu Qianxue didn't believe that her mother was a corrupt official. She wanted to go back and ask His Majesty to re-examine, but the palace gate was closed. If she was a little sixth-rank censor, she had to submit a memorial to see His Majesty first, and then she could only do so after obtaining permission. go home first.

She didn't think it was too fast to ride a horse, a carriage, or a sedan chair before, but seeing people with sedan chairs, horses, and carriages drifting away, the lanterns became weaker and weaker, and finally only she and Ban Yue were left in the big On the street, I miss it.

Ban Yue by her side seemed to have opened up the clips, explaining everything from how the house was ransacked to how she found her current place to live.

When she actually arrived at the place where she lived, Bu Qianxue realized that the poor courtyard house that Ban Yue talked about was really not that bad, with years of disrepair and old furniture.

It's okay for her to live here when she is young, and her mother is reluctant, but her elderly grandmother and grandfather are not suitable to live in this kind of place. Fortunately, her mother only rented it for a few days, and she must find a way to rent a better place again.

When the Ministry of Officials reported the list of Jinshi in this subject, their corresponding family background and position, Shi Min discovered that Bu Wuchen, who was sentenced to five years in fine and confiscated property, was actually Bu Qianxue's mother.

Although the reasoning is nothing more than human feelings, she will definitely punish corrupt officials with solid evidence, even if the other party is Xing Boen, they are the same, let alone Bu Wuchen.

On the second day of the Enrong Banquet, the Ministry of Officials began to issue appointment documents and official uniforms to Jinshi Jinshi. According to the law, they would leave for the post the next day after receiving the documents, so when Bu Qianxue reported to the Procuratorate, he and her More than 200 Jinshi who participated in the Enrong Banquet have left Fandu.

In the past three days, she went to the official prison to meet her mother, only to realize that her mother was no longer the mother in her heart, and it was fine to take bribes, and she was plausible, which really disappointed her, and left the prison angrily.

When she told her mother, grandmother and grandfather what she knew in prison, their reactions were more angry and disappointed than her. Even Jiang Li, who had a grudge against His Majesty, became ashamed and guilty.

Bu Qianxuehuo showed a face and visited all those who were a little bit related. He scraped together 100 taels, rented a courtyard with a better environment, bought a lot of belongings, bought a carriage, 100 taels Most of the two went there, and the remaining money plus the repatriation fee probably wouldn't be enough to pay the salary, because the imperial court only paid the salary every six months, and it was only the beginning of September, so she had to find another way.

Bu Qianxue went to work in Zhongjing on the first day, and only then did she know that documents and a private seal were required to prove her identity before entering Dachengmen.

In China, seals, documents and documents can all prove identity. The private seal of the emperor is Baoxie, the private seals of other royal family members are private seals, the private seals of nobles and officials are called Shiyin, and the private seals of others It is a private seal; the document is the appointment document, and the document is issued by the place of household registration.

As for the official seals of various yamen and government offices, they do not flow with the officials. They are only handed over when they take office and when they leave office.

Before entering the Inspector's Office, Bu Qianxue thought that there were not many people in the Inspector's Office, but only after she came in did she realize that she was wrong. There were more than 90 people in the Inspector's Office, including those with high grades and those without grades.

When she came to report, she was given a face-to-face order by the right governor, censor, to let her realize the responsibility and mission of being a speech officer and admonisher. She was really looking forward to and excited.

Because the officials of the imperial court more or less made donations, after the local officials learned about it, they also made donations enthusiastically in order to show their loyalty, and those with noble titles also made donations. By the end of the third year of Tianfu, the originally scarce The treasury already has 500 million taels.

Although it barely solved the urgent need, it was not a long-term solution, so as soon as the new year was over, Shi Min announced all the relevant government officials involved to the Wenxuan Hall for a conversation. ?
