A Complete Explanation of the Negative Textbooks of the Imperial Examination

    Xiao Jingduo was stunned in place, unable to move for a long time.

    The emperor of today, His Royal Highness King Qin who was invincible, just left?

    The emperor dies, the bells of Chang'an and other temples ring in March, and the whole country is full of vegetarian food. Now that the temple bell has rang, it seems that this is true.

    Xiao Jingduo couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. When he was eight years old, he saw with his own eyes the king of Qin with a black iron cavalry rushing through the wilderness, and attacking Zhuo County with an invincible force, that is Xiao Jingduo For the first time, I saw the world outside the farmyard. That battle left an indelible impression on Xiao Jingduo. Until now, he can clearly remember the heroic appearance of King Qin, who is the emperor today, and also remember that on the black cloud-like cavalry, there was a silver hook painted on iron with the words "Big" written on it. The scarlet flag with the word "Xuan" rattled in the wind. Because of the one-sided relationship in childhood, Xiao Jingduo always held a different kind of reverence for the emperor later, but now, this invincible hero and emperor who pacified the world has just left forever.

    Xiao Jingduo clearly realized for the first time that people are inherently dead, just like beauty will grow old, and legends will die.

    "The one who inherited the great power in Beijing is..."

    "It's His Royal Highness."

    The legendary emperor who once swept the world left, and a new legend began.

    After the crown prince succeeded to the throne, he issued several imperial decrees in an orderly manner, most of which were decrees sympathetic to the subjects, and a few were in the division of heroes.

    It turned out that the team of the East Palace promoted a lot of rank, the new emperor successively conferred the original crown princess as the queen, the biological mother Queen Zhaode as the Empress Dowager Yide, and the eldest daughter, and the original Yangxin County owner as Gan Ning Princess, the eldest son Rong Lang was crowned the prince.

    As for the other princess, Hejing, who is the new emperor, and why does the new emperor care about this.

      It's good that his little princess has been promoted to princess, but it's a pity that he can't congratulate her face to face.

      White flags.

    There is a piece of veil inside and outside, Qiu Ju and others are busy picking colorful pendants in the courtyard, lanterns, paper-cuts, etc. are all put away.

    "How long have we been gone, so many things happened in the capital." Qiu Ju couldn't help but sigh, "The saint just left like this."

     "Don't eat, it's time to change the name to the emperor!" Xiqi hurriedly reminded.

    "Yes, I forgot again." Qiu Ju slapped herself lightly, and said, "His Royal Highness has succeeded to the throne, he truly deserves his name!"

    When the funeral envoys departed from Chang'an, the crown prince had not yet held the enthronement ceremony, but when the news was sent to Jiannan, the new emperor must have been enthroned. The crown prince has been praised by the people over the years, and he is the wise and benevolent ruler in everyone's mind. It is really good for him to succeed him.

    Xiqi also nodded with the same feeling, Chen Zi heard the conversation between Qiu Ju and Xiqi, and was quite surprised: "You actually know so much about the royal family?"

    "That's right, when we Dalangjun high school jinshi, we met Tianyan in person in the Golden Palace!" Qiu Ju was very proud.

    "Wow, I met Tianyan!" Chen Zi exclaimed. The statement is already a well-informed woman among women. When she was rescued from Taili Jiao before, she could recognize Xiao Jingduo at a glance, thanks to her father's blessing. The county magistrate Chen is the head of the county, and she knew all the people in the county office. She knew that a new county governor was coming to the county office before she was kidnapped. The color of his official uniform, the statement easily guessed that this was the new county magistrate. But even so, most of the presentations I know are basic petty officials, and Tianyan, that is something I can't even think about.

    The emperor is a completely unattainable existence in the hearts of the world, not to mention the common people, even many officials have never seen the face of the sky in their lives. Therefore, some foreign courtiers rose to the top five, and when they were fortunate enough to meet the emperor at the Winter Solstice, many people fainted on the spot with excitement. It was unimaginable that Xiao Jingduo had actually seen the emperor, the prince and the others after hearing the statement, an ordinary girl from an official family.

    The more she talked, the more proud Qiu Ju said, and finally she waved her hand arrogantly: "Dalang-Jun has seen many scenes, if you want to know, Mrs. Chen, just wait for LangJun to come back and ask him. I remember Lang Jun still has to be rewarded by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which is the current sage! Oh, now these are royal gifts! Oh my god, I have to wipe it again, and I mustn't be left with ashes!"

    The female family is busy and excited here. Qiu Ju is looking forward to Xiao Jingduo's return.

    After a while, Xiao Lin came to look for Qiuju and others: "Lang-Jun is in front of the governor's messenger to discuss matters, you can take care, Lang-Jun will go to Rongzhou tomorrow."

    "In such a hurry, you have to leave tomorrow?" Qiu Ju also became anxious, "Wait, I'll pack up the luggage for Da Langjun."

    There is a reason why Xiao Jingduo rushed to Rongzhou in such a hurry.

    The first emperor died in March, and by the time it reached Jiannan, it was already April. It coincides with the birth of the new emperor at the end of August. As the first birthday of the prince after he ascended the throne, it can be said that the palace attaches great importance to it.

    In addition, when the new monarch is on the throne, although the ministers should abide by the rules of etiquette, keep their duties as ministers, and not flatter the master, but the governor of Rongzhou can't continue to talk about it, right?

     Of course Xiao Jingduo understood: "When the prefect means, this birthday, we should prepare some gifts in advance to congratulate the saint for the future?"

    Xiao Jingduo and others were urgently summoned to Rongzhou. The new emperor succeeded, the local official of Rongzhou governor wanted to express one or two, but he would not be sure what to give for a while, and he would not be flattering and stand out from the many gifts, so he called several county magistrates under his jurisdiction. , to discuss together.

    This, Xiao Jingduo has never done such a thing before, and he didn't know what to do at the moment.

    A county magistrate suggested: "Why don't we send Shu embroidery to the saint?"

    "No, our silkworms in Rongzhou are far inferior to Chengdu Prefecture. Can the splendid we send out compare to Chengdu?"

    This is true, another person frowned and said, "No, porcelain, or jade?"

    "Jiangnan is a big business in porcelain, they must have gone out of their way to send porcelain this time, we can't beat them." The governor shook his head again, "But jade can be pondered, we are close to Nanzhao, Maybe you can get some new jade from Nanzhao."

      Negotiate later.

      When leaving, they spread their hands and said that they had no clue, but when they turned their heads, they were all thinking about preparing gifts.

    There is no trust like this in officialdom.

    Xiao Jingduo is also thinking about this matter, Yu Gong is a subordinate, and he should have some opinions. The prince Yu Shi has been very kind to him, and he congratulated the prince from the bottom of his heart for his success. Therefore, this time, Xiao Jingduo had to spend more time on his birthday.

    Xiao Jingduo was thinking about this all the way. He returned to the county office full of thought. Qiu Ju and Xiqi were playing female celebrities in the east courtyard. Hearing the sound of the door opening, Qiu Ju ran quickly came out: "Darang Jun, you are back!"

    "Hmm."

    "Lang Jun has worked **** the road, so I will let someone prepare, so that Lang Jun can pick up the wind and clean the dust."

    The statement was also embroidered in the wing room. Seeing Xiao Jingduo coming back, she stood up and stood at the door with a low bow.

    There are only Qiu Ju and Chen Ci in the county government office, so they often mix together. Xiao Jingduo is completely free to Qiu Ju and others. As long as they finish the work at hand, they can do whatever they want. Therefore, when Xiao Jingduo is away, Chen Ci often comes to the East Court to find Qiu Ju and a few people to do needlework. Not long ago, the three of them still Talking and laughing, when Xiao Jingduo came back, Chen Ci immediately put away his smile, stood up respectfully, and asked to leave.

    The statement is a typical lady, her temperament is much weaker than that of the ladies in Chang'an, and she is always guarded against men and women, so Xiao Jingduo always observes the statement when she sees the statement, for fear of offending the other party .

    But today, the statement passed by mistake, Xiao Jingduo glanced at something, couldn't help calling the other party very rudely: "Miss Chen, stay, can you give me the embroidery in your hand? A look?"

    The statement was unclear, so I carefully handed the embroidered handkerchief over. After Xiao Jingduo took it, he flipped the front and back and sighed in disbelief: "The front and back are the same pattern!"

      However, the front and back of this embroidered handkerchief are indeed equally delicate, which means that while the front is embroidered, the back is also embroidered.

      Have you ever had a similar embroidery?"

    Qiu Ju shook her head truthfully: "No."

    Qiu Ju has been in the house all the year round, and she knew all about these embroidery patterns. Xiao Jingduo was relieved when she heard Qiu Ju categorically said no.

    "Qiu Ju, I ask you, can you embroider this kind of embroidery?"

    "No. I came here to see this kind of acupuncture. I'm learning with Mrs. Chen these two days."

    "Can you learn?"

    This is simply questioning Qiu Ju's ability as the chief maid, Qiu Ju immediately said unconvinced: "I can! As long as Mrs. Chen is willing to teach, I can learn."

    Only then did Xiao Jingduo realize that this might be Chen Ci's family stunt, he looked at Chen Ci tentatively: "Miss Chen, do you mind teaching this embroidery method? If this is your family's If I don't pass on the secret, then it's really rude if I didn't ask..."

    "It's alright." Chen Ci said with a smile, "I planned to teach Qiu Ju and Xiqi, but I didn't know this kind of acupuncture before. After arriving in Jinjiang County with my father, I learned from a woman in my spare time. I didn’t expect Xiao Mingfu to like it too, it’s really the best.”

    Xiao Jingduo was overjoyed: "This is really good, thank you Miss Chen. By the way, you just said that this was taught to you by a local woman?"

    "Yes." Chen Zi didn't know what Xiao Jingduo meant, so he nodded slightly.

    Xiao Jingduo took the embroidered handkerchief in his hand and took two steps back and forth on the corridor. Qiu Ju and others stared at him for unknown reasons. Suddenly Xiao Jingduo punched lightly and strode out. go.

    The statement was inexplicable, and Qiu Ju was also a little strange: "Dalangjun never cares about clothing, what's the matter today?"

    "Don't know."

    "Oh, that's right, Mrs. Chen, your veil!"

    "It's okay, I'll bring a new one to teach you tomorrow. It's too late today, I'll go first."

    Qiu Ju sent her remarks and went out, then looked in the direction where Xiao Jingduo left, and Xiao Jingduo was not seen for a long time.

    "Well, what's the matter?"

    Xiao Jingduo took the embroidery of the statement and immediately went to other people in the county government.

    The master bookkeeper and others were dug up from the house by Xiao Jingduo even after they had gone to work. It was extremely sad, but what was even more sad was that they were actually used to it.

    "This kind of embroidery can embroider the same pattern on the front and back at the same time, and no needles can be seen. Have you ever seen this embroidery method?"

    "I have seen it, at first it was created by a grandmother in the county. She lost her husband and child, and her only daughter is still a widow. Their mothers have no land, and the family's tax is very high, so I can only make time to make some embroidery pieces to earn money for my family. But whoever needs such flashy things in common people’s households, so not many people buy them. After Chen County Magistrate took office, Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen liked this kind of embroidery very much, and they often donated money. , Aunt Zhou and the others are just a little better."

    “Where is Aunt Zhou’s house?”

    The people who asked this question were even more puzzled: "The county magistrate has all gone, what are you asking about?"

    "I have my own arrangements." Xiao Jingduo pointed at someone, "Do you know Zhou's family?"

    The accused person secretly complained, and everyone else cast a sympathetic look. The yamen ordered by Xiao Jingduo was ten thousand unwilling in his heart, but he did not dare to say that he did not know him even with a few courage, so he humbly replied, "I do."

    "Okay, lead the way, I'm going to visit Aunt Zhou."

    As rumored, Grandma Zhou's house is very remote and dilapidated. Although it can be seen that the mother and daughter have tried their best to clean the yard, they can still see the family's poverty from the surrounding decorations .

    "Xiao County magistrate, you suddenly come to see my old lady, is there something wrong?"

    Mr. Zhou asked cautiously, and it was not her fault that she thought too much. One evening, the official came without warning, and anyone who left it would be scared to death.

    "Aunt Zhou don't need to think too much, I came here today to ask about your embroidery."

    "Embroidery?" Xiao Jingduo has been patrolling the fields for most of the past few months. The people in the county see it, and they like this young but serious and responsible county magistrate very much, so the evaluation of Xiao Jingduo by the people in the county is getting better and better. The specific performance is that many people are asking about Xiao Jingduo in private, including where he came from, how old is he this year, and whether he is married...

    Up to now, basically everyone in the county knows that Xiao Jingduo is not married, and he has never heard of a fiancée at home, so what does he do by asking embroidery? Could it be that Xiao Jingduo is getting married, and now he is choosing embroidery items to give to his wife?

    In the blink of an eye, Grandma Zhou had already thought a lot. Xiao Jingduo didn’t know that an ordinary grandma knew his emotional life well. Seeing Grandma’s doubts, he continued to add: “To be honest, I am Chang'an has never seen this kind of embroidery method, which can embroider both sides of the base fabric at the same time, so I want to ask, would Grandma Zhou want to embroider more and sell it to the government?"

    Aunt Zhou's eyes slowly widened: "I am afraid that the old lady is not too old, and her ears are not easy to use? Xiao County magistrate, do you think the government wants to buy the old lady's embroidery?"

    "More than that. But it's not too late to talk about the future. Now, how many things would you like to embroider for me?"

    "Of course, there's nothing wrong with this!" Grandma Zhou's hands were shaking with excitement, Xiao Jingduo quickly supported Grandma Zhou, and then said: "Today is too late, I won't beg for mercy. Tomorrow I will Someone will send embroidery samples, and the price is up to you."

    "How can this be..." Mrs. Zhou stood up tremblingly and sent Xiao Jingduo out, "How can I get paid for embroidering things for you? By the way, I don't know which girl it is?"

    "Ah?" Xiao Jingduo didn't understand, "What did you say?"

    "It's okay, the county magistrate walks slowly."

    Xiao Jingduo didn't take it to heart and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow, I'll retire first."

    A few days later, Xiao Lin handed the embroidery to Xiao Jingduo: "Lang Jun, this is what Aunt Zhou asked me to hand you."

    Xiao Jingduo had been waiting for a long time, but when he saw the finished product, he quietly frowned.

    The author has something to say: Gan Ning has finally appeared on the stage, and is finally going to be in line with the development of Dimei Li, so excited!
