Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

The emperor Chenghua died, the noble clan officials, civil and military officials, imperial wives, candidates to be elected office officers, supervising students, officials, monks, Taoists, Xiangfangli elders, etc. will serve the emperor for 27 days.

Officials only use cloth to wrap gauze caps when working in the ministry during the day. They wear plain clothes, waistbands, and hemp shoes. After returning home, they still have to wear clothes to show their sorrow, and prohibit banquets and other leisure activities. Even ordinary men and women who do not have a life call must serve the thirteenth day and postpone their marriage and feast.

The Cui family was all sad and sincere. Not only did the whole family not see the laughter for days, even Juanzhai also posted a notice at the door in time-due to the death of the Emperor Daxing, the new issue of the Jinyiwei comic was suspended for one month.

Because of the death of the Emperor Daxing, the authors of the comics cried for several days. When they were not crying, they had to prepare edicts, obituaries, and the new emperor’s persuasion... Where is there any time for serialization? Suspending the comic strip for a month to allow readers to exercise restraint and entertaining is also regarded as a great mourning for the Emperor Daxing.

Since the sign was hung at the entrance of the study, Jingli suddenly added a few more sighs, and those who missed the emperor’s benefits became more sincere.

If the authors of the comic book script and original painting knew this, they would definitely feel very pleased. It's a pity that they didn't even have the time to hear the news. They cried outside Sishan's gate twice during the day and night, but they still had to go back to the hospital to work with rotten peaches.

That night, Hanlin scholar Yin Zhi led the crowd to draw up three manuscripts of persuasion to be sent to the center. From the early days of the next day, hundreds of civil and military officials, military and civilian elders appeared to persuade them to enter, and one table per day was entered. The crown prince asked his subjects and people to persuade them to enter the throne after showing enough sorrow and filial piety.

The Enthroned Grand Ceremony Department followed the old custom of Chenghua Emperor. On the Hanlinyuan side, Yin Ge led the people to look up posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous work, and proposed the honorary name and temple name for the Emperor Daxing.

On August 28, the crown prince was persuaded to enter the watch for the third time. After two consecutive "requests are not allowed" and "requests are not allowed", the prince finally finished the ceremony this time, without resigning, he directly sent an order and answered "nothing to evade, reluctant to ask".

The procedure of persuading three times is now complete, and then the lengthy and tedious enthronement ceremony.

On the first day of September, the prince ordered the Ministry of Ritual to choose a day to make sacrifices to heaven and earth, ancestral temples, and sheji. The next day, the Ministry of Rites handed over the long-prepared ascension ceremony, which is scheduled for the official ceremony on the sixth day of September. The throne will be set up by the priest supervising the Tianfengtian Hall, and the officials of the Qingtian Supervisor will pay tribute to the first emperor. The new emperor at the Fengtian Temple prayed to heaven, worshipped the Empress Dowager Ciren Zhou, who raised him, and worshipped the queen mother, the last five prayers and three prostrations in his life.

From then on, he is the master of this land, and his biological mother will be posthumously gifted as the queen dowager, and will never be bullied and poisoned by anyone. The new emperor stood up, looked at the white smoke rising from the sacrificial table, and thought of Liezu's state of mind when he stood here, his heart felt sour and bitter, but he forced himself to maintain a calm look.

And mood.

He is now the emperor, no longer the son of a man who is helpless in the palace; he is no longer a juvenile child who trembles in the shadow of the imperial concubine and dare not even eat and drink in the palace; he is no longer by a few talents The extraordinary young brother threatens the prince of the throne... He is the master of Daming Jiangshan, and his every move is a model for all generations, and he should not care about the offenses of others in the past.

In his new dynasty, there should be a clean, upright and generous court, which will save the current decadent atmosphere.

The enthronement ceremony ended smoothly, and the emperor then decreed to amnesty the world, except for the unforgivable crimes of treason, treason, murder, robber, evil party, and loss of opportunity, and the rest is forgiven.

The will of amnesty for the world went on, from Jinyiweizhao prison to various government offices, military guards and exiles sent back many old prisoners. The emperor's grace of the new dynasty shined from Beijing to the frontier, like a spring breeze that quickly melted the misery of the criminals, and taught countless prisoners to be grateful and cherish the grace of the new dynasty.

More than two months later, the Xu family, who was far away in Pinghaiwei, Fujian, also received this deep grace as the sea, and knelt on the ground with the loyal servant Xiao Haijing sent by the Cui family to serve her, celebrating their return in this life with mixed joys and sorrows. The township is expected.

But after crying for most of the day, Xu suddenly remembered that he no longer had his husband’s house, and his parents had never sent a letter in these years, just as if he was dead, and his son is still in the hands of Cui Xie to beg for life. I'm afraid I can't support her...

She had a bitter life in the past, but at least there was a way to live in such a bitterness. What should she do after returning to Beijing?

=========================

The first Huizheng of the new emperor has been issued, and the etiquette for the change of dynasty has not been completed: the posthumous title, honorary title, and temple title should be given to the Daxing emperor, and the current empress dowager, empress dowager, concubine, empress... the cabinet and The Ministry of Rites fell into another round of hustle. The Hanlin Academy was also busy drafting various decrees. Xueshi Yin, Shidu, Bachelor of Shijiao, etc. moved out the posthumous method, and picked out a large number of words that meant good and beautiful to discuss at the court meeting.

After the quarrel on September Yi Mao day, the central government finally agreed on the posthumous title of Daxing Emperor. The posthumous posthumous posthumous name was "Ji Tian Ning Tao Cheng Ming Ren respect Wen Su Wu Hong De Sheng Filial Piety Pure Emperor", the temple name "Xian Zong", which is generally for later generations. Said "Xianzong Pure Emperor".

After Cui Xie heard the temple name in the courtyard, his first thought was "Sure enough, Ming Xianzong", and the second thought... No need to have any thoughts, he swiftly followed the classics to the library to search for the daily life of these years Note and various edicts and chapters, waiting to be revised.

Turning the sky is the twenty-seventh day of observing the decay, and the new emperor will start to look at things, and their ministers have to turn out the backlog of affairs a while ago and step up to handle it. Even newcomers like Cui Xie have to delay every night before they can go home. The good days of leisurely and leisurely reading every day for the first two months are gone.

Had it not been for the "Jinyiwei Comic Strip" that was originally entrusted to several authors to write in sections according to the outline, at this time there are still drafts, they would have to stop for a year or a half in order to express their condolences to Emperor Xianzong.

New entrants like Cui Xie are not too busy. The ones who are really busy are Yin Zhi, bachelor of the school, Xu Pu, bachelor of attendant lectures, and the officials of attendant lecturers.

The young emperor who was newly enthroned is not like the Emperor Chenghua who did not like to look at the court or see his officials as he did during the reign of Emperor Chenghua. In order to reopen the banquet, the banquet lecturers must be re-arranged to write new sermons according to the prince’s standard, and the lecturers must also be asked to practice the etiquette of the banquet.

And the list of new lecturers could not be made up by the few of them, but the Hanlin scholar, Yin Ge, had to make the final decision.

Yin Xueshi was so busy since the death of Xianzong, the two elders Ri He Wan and Liu lived in the duty room and had no time to come out to catch the Hanlin Academy's internal affairs. It wasn't until Xu Xueshi handed him the newly drawn list of lecturers for the banquet, and saw the mellow word "Cui Xie" behind Zhanshuguan's line, that he remembered with surprise and regret--

A few days ago, I drafted so many documents and discussed etiquette, so why didn't I expect this Cui Xie to add some pens? He was a newcomer to the Imperial Academy and didn’t understand anything. He didn’t need to make Li Dongyang’s mistakes by himself. He only had to hand him a few forms and other documents to write. Put the error!

Why is he so busy these days that he gently let go of the Cui family boy?

With only this step difference, this kid will show his face in front of the new monarch in a blink of an eye, and in the future, he will be able to show books in front of the palace every three days every month. He must be more favored than in front of the Daxing Emperor!

Old Yin Ge tightly squeezed the pen, and said naturally: "Cui Xiuzhuan has not seen the profound knowledge of science soon after he was admitted to the hospital, why can he serve the sutra? I want him to participate in the compilation of the records of the emperor. Books, we can serve the emperor."

If he is a person of interest, he will follow the flow and remove the person whom the old man wants to remove from the list. It's a pity that the old man Yin Ge encountered was not the willing and muddled character like the "Paper-pasted San Ge Lao, Clay Sculpture Liu Shang Shu", but the stubborn Xu Pu.

Not only did he refuse to move the pen, but instead recite the imperial decree passed by Gao Gongbi two months ago, and stiffly said: "The first emperor ordered him to be an exhibition officer, and the new emperor never issued a special edict after he became king. If the decree went to him, he should naturally be asked to show the book."

What's more, the book official doesn't care about the lectures, he just unfolds the book on the lecture in front of the emperor, and presses it with a jade ruler. Does it have to write this book of Confucianism to do it? This curator was originally a good-looking young man to edit and edit, and I have never heard of the need to specifically select seniors with qualifications.

Xu Pu even felt that Xueshi Yin was a little inexplicable, and he handed it over with the paperwork in both hands: "The lower official thought that Cui Xie, the exhibition curator should not be changed. If others are uncomfortable, please let the adults point out."

The people who shouldn't be in the highest position are all on, so what else should he change? Old Yin Ge slammed his pen and gave Xu Pu a black face, turned and left.

Xu Xueshi didn’t care, and went back to teach Cui Xie: “Nowadays, you are the king of diligent learning. Although you are only a solo exhibition officer, you may become more knowledgeable in the future. You may not be able to serve the emperor. After you go back, follow your teacher to read the scriptures and let them go. The heart of writing poems and paintings and being a romantic gifted scholar-Xueshi Yin seems to be dissatisfied with your Scripture and refuses to ask you to attend the banquet."

Cui Xie followed the predecessors for a long time practicing book exhibition, and suddenly heard that Master Yin Xueshi refused to ask him to participate in the banquet, and was at a loss like Xu Xueshi: "I am an exhibition officer..." Is the flip as clean and neat as the fancy poker? Why is it related to Jingyi again?

Besides, his Confucianism is not bad. He is the No. 1 student who was personally taken by Elder Yin. Why should he take him if he is not good enough?

Cui Xie pondered for a long time but was puzzled, so he went home and asked Teacher Li: "I am the teacher, do you think I have not given him a gift? Or I will pack some four treasures of the study, new books, paper and pen, and send them to In the bachelor's house?"

Xueshi Li couldn’t guess Yin Ge’s thoughts of nine bends and eighteen bends, and he hesitated, “Perhaps Yin Xueshi’s expectation of you is more than just being a solo exhibition clerk, right? It doesn’t matter, I gave a lecture to the sage. Organize a set of sermons, go back to your own house and try to explain it to others."

If one day the new emperor remembered what Cui Xie had taught him before, and asked him to tell him a few scriptures, he would have a good preparation so that the emperor would like it.

Their master and apprentice pulled out the "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "Mencius" sermons prepared by Li Dongyang, and practiced lectures like before giving the Prince a lecture. Tired or tired, both of them were full of expectations for the future. It's also harmonious.

On the other hand, Yin Gelao and Wan Shoufu and Liu Cifu are not very happy-the new emperor has taken off his bad clothes, and there is a small county in Yutai County, Shandong Province. "Failed to extend, not stated in etiquette", please be held accountable for the guilt of Concubine Wan Gui and his relatives.

A little Xiaxian County Cheng dared to discuss this matter!

A small memorial from Xiaxian County Cheng could be sent to Beijing and delivered to the old desk of Ge!

A small memorial from Xiaxian County Cheng was able to get the emperor to see and give instructions!

This is not a memorial, or something that an ignorant and rebellious little official can do. What is behind it is the determination of the emperor to pursue the guilt of the family!

Seeing through that the emperor wants to thoroughly investigate the hearts of Wanjia, Wan Shoufu, who has joined Wanjia, Liu Cifu, who has been married to Wan Shoufu, and Yin Sanfu, who was introduced into the cabinet by the joint efforts of the first and second assistants, are a little worried. Regardless of the affairs in the DPRK, first wrote a memorandum of begging for officialdom to test the attitude of the emperor.

Only when they were writing the letter to officialdom, Wan Shoufu and Yin Gelao suddenly had such a kind of ingenuity in their hearts, and they all remembered Cui Xie's young and handsome face, which was so shabby.

Don't send him out because you want to break his marriage and want to pick him up. The scourge you recruited will immediately hinder them, right?
