It’s not that simple to find, to find, a chatty partner ……
Looking at the back of the white bearded big man leading the crowd to leave, Zhu Pingan sang the song “It’s not that simple” in his heart, wanting to cry, really being an official is not that simple ……
Regardless of whether it is the gods fighting, or the big brother tearing, the procedure after the release of the list of the Palace Examination must continue to go down.
The following is the main event of the Imperial Exam release—-the Imperial Street Qua Guan, also known as the parade Qua Guan, the first prize winner rode a high horse on the Imperial Street in the Imperial City, enjoying the glory of the envy of all the people. Of course, the first prize winner and the scout will also be so, only to fall behind the first prize winner, as for the other students can only walk.
In fact, the purpose of the imperial street praise officials is to commend the top scholar, inspire the world of people’s motivation, especially the students of the motivation to encourage them to learn from the top scholar, to take them as a model, active efforts, study hard, to participate in the imperial examinations, for the son of heaven.
Under the arrangement of the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Honglu Temple, Zhu Pingan and the top scholar and scholar scout were led by people to the side hall. Because the imperial street boasts of an official is a very face-conscious matter, it is only possible to change the three first-place winners into festive, dazzling clothes.
In the side hall, there are small eunuchs and palace maids who pulled up the curtains early, and divided out three changing rooms, Zhu Pingan and the three people were led in by people to change the exclusive crown clothes of the first prize winner, the first prize winner, and the flower scout.
Into the curtain covered single room, Zhu Pingan found waiting inside the small eunuch is actually have a side, is the face of the saint yesterday to select the reward, he will choose the golden chicken when he winked at himself that small eunuch. The reason why he can have this moment the scholar, more or less with this little eunuch that wink has a relationship.
“Oh, so is the eunuch, yesterday because of the inconvenience, peace has not been on the spot to the eunuch to thank, I hope the eunuch do not blame. Thank you for the eunuch’s mention yesterday.” After Zhu Pingan recognised this little eunuch, he arched his hand and thanked him.
“Oh, Scholar Lang is polite, we did nothing yesterday. The fact that Scholar Lang can have today, firstly, is the reward from His Majesty. Secondly, it is Scholar Lang’s own intelligence, but it has nothing to do with our family.” The little eunuch shook his head slightly and smiled back.
“Eunuch jokes, although Ping’an is not talented but also knows the reasoning of repaying kindness. Yesterday if not for the eunuch’s mention. Ping An would have almost made a mistake.”
“Scholar is the one who is joking, we really didn’t do anything.” The expression on the little eunuch’s face was an admission, but his mouth was speaking words of denial.
“Dare I ask how the eunuch is addressed?” Zhu Pingan asked with a slight arch of his hand.
“I can’t talk about the name, it’s just a cheap name, our common name is Feng Bao. I’m afraid that I’ve tainted Scholar Lang’s ears.” The little eunuch said in a self-effacing manner.
Oh, your name is Feng Bao ah.
Zhu Pingan sniffing heart did not realise what, was about to say something when, suddenly as if a bolt of lightning struck, suddenly stunned, wait, Nima, what do you call it, Feng Bao ……
Feng Bao! This Nima is the future bull ah, this is the eunuch in the fighting chicken ah. It is also the most important political ally of the future Zhang Juzheng, the reason why the future Zhang Juzheng several times in the fight with political opponents can laugh to the end, Feng Bao this political ally is a great effort ah, whether it is to take out the high arch, or together with the ravaging of the gods in charge of the power of Daming, the role of Feng Bao are not to be ignored.
History, this Feng Bao is a double-sided body, one side is a smart person, high cultural quality, ambition. The other side is greedy for money, greedy for power, some wild history also records that this Feng Bao also greedy for sex. This goods is a famous “eunuch politician”, later not only is the Secretary of the seal, supervisor of the East Chamber and the Royal Horse Supervisor, but also the Minister of the Order. Powerful for a while, it can be said that this goods to the eunuch this profession to the pinnacle!
Really did not expect, in front of this small eunuch is Feng Bao, Zhu Pingan suddenly like a thunderbolt.
The little eunuch Feng Bao only finished his name, then saw the scholar groom as if he was struck by lightning, dumbfounded, looking at himself.
“Scholar Lang …….” Little Eunuch Feng Bao was surprised.
At the little eunuch’s call. Only then did Zhu Pingan come back to his senses, and then looked fixedly at the little eunuch Feng Bao, and opened his mouth very formally, “Yesterday’s matter, Pingan thanked Eunuch Feng, Eunuch Feng is a good name, no matter if the eunuch believes it or not, although Pingan is the first time to hear the eunuch’s great name, but he believes that Eunuch Feng will surely leave a strong and colourful mark in the history in the future.”
“Scholar Lang jokes, we are just the palace rough make odd jobs lackey, can not be Scholar Lang thanks. Moreover, we are just a eunuch, what’s the use of a good or bad name, how dare we ask to leave a colourful mark in history, Scholarly Yuanlang must not make fun of us.” Feng bao shook his head, seems to be thinking of the sadness of the original knife, some lost sigh.
“Three hundred and sixty lines of work, the line produces a scholar, why should the eunuch be presumptuous.” Zhu Pingan opened his mouth and persuaded.
“But we are just a eunuch, what future can be said.” Little eunuch Feng Bao mocked.
The current Feng Bao completely lacked the future history books written that sophisticated, powerful and domineering, but instead carried a sense of inferiority, and a three point lack of self-confidence.
This, the strange goods also. If you invest at this time, the future gains are huge, the future of Zhang Juzheng’s fortune is also dependent on this person, why not get a piece of the pie yourself.
Suddenly, Zhu Pingan remembered a modern popular paragraph, just suitable for this time, can be said to be the right place, the right time, the right person and the right person.
Thus, Zhu Pingan suddenly raised his voice and righteously interrupted Feng Bao’s words, “Your Excellency, please forgive Pingan for not agreeing with this statement!”
“Oh? What makes Scholar Lang say that?” Feng Bao was somewhat puzzled by Zhu Pingan’s sudden agitation.
“Why do you say this?”
“Dare I ask the eunuch if he knows who wrote the world’s number one general history tome that ‘investigates the interstices of heaven and man, comprehends the changes of the past and present, and forms the words of a family’?”
“Dare I ask your Excellency, do you know that the improvement of papermaking, making the world’s civilisation to be passed on for thousands of years, making the cost of paper to be lowered, the children of the humble family to be able to learn the words of the saints, and all the world’s scholars to be able to bathe in the glory of the person’s grace, who was the person who did this?”
“Dare to ask Gong Gong, know Wu Zetian abdicated, the Tang Emperor came to power, not a few days Prince Li Chong led the forbidden army forced the palace coup, the group of ministers at their wits’ end, the Emperor cried out, what is the person who took the initiative to volunteer to split the rebel vanguard of a knife, making the rebel army since the collapse, the power to save the day, help the building in the will fall; followed by the Tang Emperor Xuanzong, the Vietnamese Chief Mei Xuancheng rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, what is the person who took the route of the former East Han Ma Yan southern expedition, the small road march, the direct attack on the rebel forces, and the people of Vietnam to the Tang Dynasty. When the small road march, directly hit the enemy chief to pacify the Southwest?”
“Dare to ask your Excellency, do you know who is the man who went to the sea seven times in the Western Ocean, to raise my Ming dragon power in the miles away?”
After Zhu Pingan repeated a sentence of why this statement in a rising tone, he was snapping, flinging a series of rhetorical questions, like a raging tornado, sweeping the little eunuch Feng Bao, his brain was washed out.
“Sima Qian …… Cai Hou …… Castor Yang Si …… Duke Zheng ……” The little eunuch muttered involuntarily under Zhu Pingan’s verbal storm.
“And what are their origins? What do they have in common?” Zhu Pingan struck the iron while it was hot and once again asked a series of follow-up questions, “Eunuch Feng was just presumptuous, wouldn’t he also be presumptuous of them together?”
Under Zhu Pingan’s language storm, little eunuch Feng Bao eyes suddenly bright, this moment there is a seed called ambition in his heart took root and sprouted!
Although Sima Qian is not orthodox, but also subject to the Han Wu Di de-emphasis of the punishment, is a eunuch; Cai Lun Cai Hou is a eunuch, is a eunuch; Yang Si Castor is a eunuch, is a eunuch; Zheng He Zheng Gong is a eunuch, is a eunuch!
They can do it, they can make a name for themselves in history, why can’t I!
The seed called ambition in the heart of the little eunuch Feng Bao, quickly took root and grew up!
“Many thanks to Scholar Lang for waking us up!” Little Eunuch Feng Bao looked towards Zhu Ping An, his eyes shining brightly, and spoke from the bottom of his heart to thank him.
“Eunuch Feng is joking, I also did nothing.” Zhu Pingan’s face replicated the expression that Little Eunuch Feng Bao had just had at the beginning, and denied with a slight smile.
Then, the two of them looked at each other heartily and laughed.
The wheels of history whizzed by without a single stop, running over a stone, bumping a little, and continuing onwards
