Chapter 346: Promote the Officials on the Imperial Street

The three of them were personally sent to the outside of the Meridian Gate by three ministers of the regent. The Minister of Rites came up again, personally sent three tripods and armor, and waved out to the main gate of Chengtian Gate. The Jinshi accompanied them on the official road on the left...

Silence was in the middle, Zhu Dashou and Tao Dalin followed, and the three of them were walking on the imperial road that only the emperor could walk on. There is no doubt that they would not walk on this road for the second time in their lives, so under the leadership of Shen Mo, the three of them walked very slowly, and they all thought about their own thoughts.

Zhao Zhenji looked back a few times, but it was hard to urge him. After all, if life is compared to a dream, then for scholars, what the three of them have experienced now is the most beautiful and exciting part of this dream.

It is human nature to not want to wake up if you have a good dream. So Shangshu Zhao slowed down and walked slowly ahead.

Until Chengtian Gate, a mattress had been set up, with Jinshi Jinban hanging in the shed. There were already two county magistrates of Shuntian Prefecture Jingzhao Yin, Daxing and Wanping, who were each holding a tall horse with bright silver without miscellaneous hairs and red colors, waiting under the list.

In order to be silent, the prefect of Shuntian changed the red flowers on his head to golden color, and then put the cross on his body red; the two county magistrates were also the second-hand men, and Tanhua made such a trick. After the outfit was finished, the Jingzhao Yin personally handed the horse whip to the top scholar, and the two county magistrates handed the second-hand men to the top scholar, Tanhua and helped the three of them get on the horse.

Behind them there are "Six Yuans in a row", "Zhuangyuan and the No. 1" flag, a pair of green fans, a red umbrella, and a musical arrangement of gongs and drums. They blew and went out to Chengtianmen and arrived on Chang'an Street.

The atmosphere suddenly changed from solemn to lively, and the wide Chang'an Street was filled with men, women, young and old watching the fun. If it weren't for the soldiers guarding Shuntian Prefecture in the middle of the road, it would have been really out of reach.

Just as everyone on the street was looking forward to it, a sudden drum and music was played. Amid the festive music, two rows of Han generals guarded two officials of the rituals wearing red and flowers, carrying the dragon golden list and slowly came out. The golden list was escorted by the Minister of Rites, and the Jinshi followed, exiting from the middle of the Meridian Gate, and slowly passing by Chang'an Street.

The legendary "Imperial Street Promotion Official" ceremony began! The three prides of heaven rode on the bright silver horse and accepted the admiration and cheers of the people on Chang'an Street. This is almost the most passionate celebration for the people in the capital, because from a poor scholar to a new top scholar, it is itself the best inspirational story and is always popular with the people.

Moreover, the Sandingjia is so young and handsome this year. People in the world are naturally more enthusiastic and excited than in previous years. This excitement has reached a boiling point after seeing the "Six Yuans in a row". Men, women, young and old, screaming, and throwing the flowers and petals in the basket to him. The petals were blown by the wind and scattered on the sky street, making the three people look like gods descending to earth.

This is exactly what, today's unrestrained thoughts are endless. The spring breeze is so proud that the horse's hooves are fast, and one day I see all the flowers in Chang'an.

With the sound of firecrackers and the loud brags, the team of top scholars and officials came out of the left Chang'an Gate. Except for the Sanding Jia, the rest of the Jinshi were taken to the Ministry of Rites to prepare to attend the Qionglin Banquet.

The silent three continued to march through the Ministry of War Street, went into the Ministry of Personnel's Office, entered the Wenxuan Department, and burned incense in the Kuixing Hall in the Qualification Department. After the ceremony, they rode out of the front door and carried incense at Guanyin Temple and Guandi Temple. Then they returned to the Ministry of Rites Office. In addition to the same year as undergraduates, all the lords of the ranks and ranks were in front of the yard, dressed in Chu and welcomed the new nobles. The three bowed to the seniors three times, and then sat in the main hall in order, and the imperial gift banquet began.

After sitting down and toasting, the seniors stood up and said goodbye, silently leading the same year to send it out. After returning, the delicacies were listed, and the drums were clamoring, so they could enjoy the glory of today.

The good news that the six yuan in silence spread quickly throughout the capital. This was indeed a great auspiciousness, which made people who had not heard good news for a long time were jubilant, and the court and the country were celebrating together. The streets and alleys were filled with people, and the sound of gongs and drums and firecrackers were heard everywhere.

Even the Jinyiwei Yamen, who had always been crying and howling, made an exception and set off a few whips. The Governor also ordered lunch to have a meal and drink to celebrate.

But the banquet was ready, but the officers of the Jinyiwei could not find their Grand Governor. While looking at each other, Zhu Shisan said, "The Grand Governor said that he had something to do temporarily and could not come. Everyone should eat and drink well."

Everyone kept shouting "What a pity", and they could not help but guess that the governor had done something, and they rarely missed the banquet.

In fact, Lu Bing was not a businessman. He changed into the unique golden python robe and put on an ordinary scholar's uniform. With the company of several confidants, he turned around and almost halfway around Beijing. Then he reached the destination of the trip, the Tianzhu of the Ministry of Justice.

With a waist sign from He Ao, the Minister of Justice, Lu Bing and his party successfully entered the deep and dirty prison, twisted and turned to the deepest outside the cell where they were imprisoned alone.

Raising his hand to repel Sui'er, Lu Bing slowly stepped in, as if afraid of waking up the person sleeping inside.

But I woke up still and heard a low voice: "It's pretty early to deliver the meal today!"

Hearing this voice, Lu Bing choked and said, "Sir..."

The man was stunned when he heard this, turned around and showed a messy face with hair and beard. It was vaguely obvious that he had been imprisoned for a year and experienced the officials of the former Jinyiwei, Shenlian!

Chen Lian looked closely and Zhan Yan smiled and said, "The Grand Governor is here, what are you unhappy about?"

Lu Bing shook his head and said excitedly: "No, it's a good thing," and said, taking a deep breath and said: "Sir, can be released from prison."

"What?" Chen Lian was stunned and said, "Is Yan Song down?"

"That's not..." Lu Bing smiled and said, "But your noble student, silent and clumsy, won six yuan in a row, becoming the most powerful top scholar in this dynasty!" He said excitedly, "According to the convention, if his son wins the top scholar, he can forgive his father's sins; now he is proud of his words and wins six yuan, he will write a letter tonight, asking Your Majesty to support this act and release you without a guilty conscience. Your Majesty will definitely agree!"

He did not hesitate to offend Teacher Li Mo, but also wanted to help Chen Mo finalize the top scorer, for this matter!

But Chen Lian was only happy for a while when he heard that his disciple was the top scorer, and then he returned to his calmness and said, "Please tell my disciple that he is very good, but I won't go out, don't write that thing."

"Why?" Lu Bing frowned and advised: "You have written a letter to impeach Yan Song and fulfilled your mission. Why do you still have to stay in prison?"

"I haven't completed my mission yet." Chen Lian shook his head slowly and said, "I can't go out before I finish it."

"What mission do you have?" Lu Bing said in disbelief.

Chen Lian raised his head, his face was very haggard, but his eyes were extremely bright and said, "Everything is over, I only want to die."

"Just seeking death?" Lu Bing said in surprise.

"Just like the ancient sword-casting master, I must use my own life to cast this sharp sword that killed evil spirits." Chen Lian said in a deep voice: "Otherwise, it will not be enough to revive the great ceremony since the great ceremony, and the wind of the sage with the light and dust will not be enough to reconnect the broken backbone of the Shilin!" This directly alludes to Emperor Jiajing, but fortunately, the audience is Lu Bing now.

Lu Bing shook his head and thought for a long time before smiling bitterly: "Even if this is necessary, you can't do it."

Chen Lian said lightly: "Why?"

"You may not know that your student is silent and did a great job!" Lu Bing said softly: "Long before he won the top scorer, he was already a Zhejiang inspector, and he was a minister of Jian Zai's heart; now he has become an unprecedented Shen Liushou, and he is even more of the future that His Majesty is determined to cultivate." Seeing Chen Lian revealing an listening look, Lu Bing continued to urge: "I have read both of his exam papers. He has indeed proposed a clever way to solve the financial problems of the court without touching too much. He is really a powerful minister who is talented and able to work hard. If he has time, such a person must be the key to revitalizing the Ming Dynasty!" As he said, he said with pain: "Sir, even if he is not your student, do you have the heart to destroy this hope of the Ming Dynasty?" In order to convince Chen Lian, he lifted silence to the height of 'Empire Hope'.

Chen Lian's stubborn face finally calmed down and slowly lowered his head.

Seeing that there was a family, Lu Bing quickly rang the railway while it was hot: "The name of filial piety in the emperors of all dynasties was to show that my Ming Dynasty established the country with filial piety. Now that you have let my words not be written into the letter, you are forcing him to be unfilial. How can he feel? How can he gain a foothold in the scholarly world? I am afraid no one wants to be with him!" This statement is basically true, but it is just a bit exaggerated.

Chen Lian sat blankly for a long time and said, "Then I will hang myself now. Is this okay?"

"That's a clumsy saying is 'rescue unfavorable'." Lu Bing sighed: "Others will say that he doesn't take the master to heart. If he rescues him early, why would this result be like this?"
