Chapter five hundred and twentieth six tossing all the way
Thank you very much for your rewards from Xiao Wangyan!
When Lu Zhonglian saw Luo Xin awaken, he hurriedly tiptoed to the window and said in a low voice:
"Hao Master woke up?"
Luo Xin nodded and lowered his voice and asked, "Who is this?"
Lu Zhonglian glanced at the scholar who was still sleeping there at this time, and said in a low voice with sigh in his eyes:
"Zhong Jinhatun.△↗,"
"Zhong Jin?" Luo Xin was stunned. His eyes became gentle when he looked at Zhong Jinhatun, and he thought to himself: "Is this the result of her coming to see my palace examination?"
Seeing Luo Xin's gaze becoming gentle, Lu Zhonglian whispered: "Mr. Marquis, don't forget that you will go to Honglu Temple this morning."
Luo Xin nodded slightly, and Lu Zhonglian tiptoed out. Seeing Zhong Jinhatun sleeping soundly, Luo Xin couldn't bear to wake her up, so he lay honestly on the bed, looking at Zhong Jinhatun with gentle eyes.
However, the sky gradually became brighter, and Luo Xin knew that he had to get up, otherwise he would be finished when he went to Honglu Temple. At this moment, Zhou Yu's voice sounded outside the door:
"Zhonglian, why are you standing here? You haven't gotten up yet?"
Zhong Jinhatun, who was lying on the bedside, suddenly woke up, sat up straight, and saw Luo Xin's gentle gaze looking at him. He was alone there for a moment, and his eyes gradually filled with tears.
"I'll be here soon!"
Luo Xin first shouted out the door, then reached out and gently stroked Zhong Jinhatun's cheek, and said softly:
"Thanks a lot!"
"Not hard work!"
Zhong Jinhatun shook his head gently, but his voice was a little choked, but the tears could no longer help rolling down.
"If you don't have any weapons, hurry up and go to Honglu Temple. The time is too long and you can't be late."
"I understand!" Luo Xin shouted angrily.
"Puchi..." Zhong Jinhatun burst into tears and laughed, stood up and said, "Zhuangcai Lang, get up quickly and let me serve you."
"Marty!" Lu Daqing's voice sounded outside.
"Come in!"
Luo Xin said as he got up from the bed. When the door opened, he saw Lu Daqing walking in with a basin, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, then retreated and closed the door again.
Luo Xin got up and washed up. Zhong Jinhatun served by him. He took the hand towel handed over by Zhong Jinhatun and wiped his face. Then he said to Zhong Jinhatun:
"Zhong Jin, but what happened to your tribe?"
Zhong Jinhatun shook his head gently, Luo Xin gently stroked Zhong Jinhatun's hair and said, "Is there anything wrong?"
Zhong Jinhatun hesitated for a moment, raised his hands and pushed Luo Xin out the door and said, "You go and do it first, and I'll talk about it when you come back."
"Isn't it an urgent matter?"
"no!"
"Okay, wait for me to come back."
Luo Xin nodded, turned around and pushed the door and walked out. When he arrived at the cafeteria, he saw Zhou Yu and others eating. Everyone looked bad. It seemed that the wine had not been completely awake. Luo Xin's head was also a little swollen and painful. He just drank a bowl of porridge and an egg, and left the house with everyone.
Today, all new Jinshis must enter the Honglu Temple to study the basic etiquette of becoming an official, and receive court robes, crowns, Jinshi treasure books, etc. given by the emperor.
On the way, I met some new Jinshi. Looking at each other's faces and their steps were pale and their steps were floating. This was because the wine I had not woken up completely last night, and they all couldn't help but smile at each other.
After entering the Honglu Temple, there was a cumbersome procedure. Finally, the top scholar Luo Xin expressed his gratitude to Emperor Jiajing on behalf of all the new Jinshi.
This is not the end. We have to go to Teacher Xie and set up a Confucius Temple to worship Confucius. Moreover, it is not only Confucius who worshipped, but also Mencius, Yan Zi, Zeng Zi, etc.
He knocked down all the way, and his back was sore, even Luo Xin, who had martial arts skills, was also very miserable. After completing these cumbersome procedures, he reached the last project and erected a famous stele of Jinshi. That is, a stone tablet carved by the Ministry of Works, which was engraved with the names of all the new Jinshis of this year. It was erected in the forest of the Imperial College for future students to admire. This is also an opportunity for scholars to leave their names in history.
Therefore, the newly-elected Jinshi, who had been exhausted, became energetic at this time and excitedly searched for their part in the stele forest of the Imperial College.
Everyone surrounded the Jinshi Monument, stretched their necks to watch, looking for their own name on the monument. Everyone had the hometown of the Jinshi behind their name, and carved them from top to bottom on the monument.
I found my name happily, looked at my name with satisfaction, and then bowed and congratulated each other. Finally, the torture of this day ended.
But this does not mean that they can become officials. They have one last step to take, which is to go to the Ministry of Personnel to take the imperial examination three days later.
Why do you have to take the exam again?
Because after passing the Jinshi exam, it just means that you can become an official, but what official you are a depends on the court exam and the official position will be assigned according to the results of the court exam.
After leaving the Imperial College, only the new Jinshi were left. Countless officials surrounded them these days, and all of them were gone at this time. It seemed as if the prosperous smoke and clouds instantly dissipated, and they returned to the loneliness and coldness that had been before the examination.
At this time, they realized that the officials were surrounding them before, not because they were so powerful, but just the procedures that the court should go through. Which of the officials in the court was not from a Jinshi? What can they show off by these new Jinshi?
Tao Xingyan looked at Luo Xin with a wry smile and said, "The prosperity has fallen and loneliness has become sorrow. The day for us to hold our tails together is here."
Luo Xin couldn't help but smile: "Then just hold it!"
When everyone heard the two of them talking interestingly, they couldn't help laughing. The smile made the worry in their hearts much less. However, everyone had no intention of making an appointment to have a trip. They bowed to each other and went back to prepare for the morning exam in three days, so as to achieve better grades and be able to assign a good job.
Luo Xin and others returned to the mansion and went straight to their room. Everyone thought that Luo Xin was going to prepare for the court exam three days later, so they couldn't help but feel relieved. Even Luo Xin had to prepare actively, what else could they have to be proud of?
So, they all returned to their rooms and prepared behind closed doors.
After pushing open the door, Luo Xin saw Zhong Jinhatun sitting on a chair. When he saw himself coming in, he hurriedly stood up and walked to the washbasin, soaked his hand towel in the basin of water, then twisted it in his hand and handed it to Luo Xin.
"Thank you!" Luo Xin took the towel and looked at Zhong Jinhatun gently.
Zhong Jinhatun's face turned red and he ran to pour tea for Luo Xin. Luo Xin stepped forward and pulled Zhong Jinhatun down and said:
"Zhong Jin, what happened?"
