For such things as delivering the decree, one must be sent to notify the master in advance. Whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, one must be mentally prepared. The most important thing is that no one in the family has to rush to find the master to receive the decree. .
But this time...
The servant looked at the "master" who was following them, shook his head, and asked someone to notify, forget it, it's best for an adult to come forward for such a matter.
Yin Li was very happy that his son's title was promoted from county male to county magistrate, and he was awarded the title by his own ability, so when he came to court, he immediately missed work and went home to wait for the order.
In addition to conferring a title, the emperor also rewarded Yin or a house. When the servant came, he brought the land deed of the house and put it in a small box.
He was the only one who was given the house.
Yin Or reached out to take it, and handed over the imperial decree to his father for offering. He hugged the box containing the title deed and handed it to Changshou, then said to his father: "Father, I will go with Bai Shan and the others at noon. Eat and celebrate."
Yin Li, who wanted to celebrate with his family, was silent for a moment and then nodded, "Go."
He glanced at Bai Shan and the others standing beside him, and sighed, forget it, this was also the first time he saw the recipient of the order running around with the servant who announced the order.
We all know that we have our own imperial decree, shouldn't we go home early to prepare
Everyone cheered and turned to Liu's house.
Liu Shangshu, who beat Liu Huan just two days ago, is full of red and smiling today. He enthusiastically welcomes the servant who announced the decree to the door, and salutes the two princesses. Seeing Zhou Man and Bai Shan, his expression can't help but change "Why are you here?"
Bai Shan: ... They have been doing well, obviously they came in with the servants.
Man Bao: "Liu Shangshu doesn't welcome us?"
"No, no," Liu Shangshu hurriedly said, "Yes... Mr. Zhou, don't you want to go back and prepare to receive the order?"
They waved their hands in a very bachelor way: "There are elders in the family, doesn't Liu Huan just go home?"
Liu Shangshu: "... Master Zhou didn't mention it, I forgot to ask."
He turned his head and glared at Liu Huan, "You have quit the Dachaohui a long time ago, why did you come back later than me, where did you go?"
The servant coughed lightly and reminded softly: "Master Shangshu, shall we accept the order first?"
"That's right, take the order first."
After all, Liu Huan knelt down to receive the order.
The servant unfolded the imperial decree, scanned it first, then paused when he raised it, closed his opened mouth slightly, looked down at Liu Huan, and said: "The emperor said: I only rule the world with literature, and fight chaos with peace." Martial arts. The army commander and general Rong are the mainstay of the imperial court and the backbone of the country. They are capable of both civil and military affairs. If they contribute their efforts to serve you, they will lose their achievements and not praise them for favoring their lives..."
It's the same as the beginning of Yin or, but the difference is, "Mian Liu Huan tried the Jinchun Mingjing, with Liu's rhyme..."
Anyway, with the background of your Liu family, the disciples wouldn't be able to pass even one Mingjing exam, right? You made great contributions during the Western Expedition. I am very optimistic about you. I think you are a plastic talent for civil servants and generals. I believe in you, and you will definitely be able to do it.
An eloquent article, which is much longer than the imperial decree written by Yin Yu, followed by the signature of the official who wrote the imperial decree, the seal of the review officer of the Zhongshu Province, and the seal of the Minister of Shangshu, which was handed over to the servant after reading it. .
This servant is enshrined in the Ministry of Rites, and the people in the Ministry of Rites have always talked a lot. If they know about it, it means that almost everyone in the imperial city knows about it.
Liu Huan didn't even dare to look up to see his grandfather's face, he just thought it was over.
It was indeed over, Liu Shangshu smiled and accepted the order instead of Liu Huan, stuffed a heavy purse into the servant, and assured him: "Please report to Your Majesty, Eunuch, and I will urge him to study hard."
The waiter responded with a smile, and thoughtfully went out first, giving the space to the grandparent and grandson.
However, Liu Shangshu was still smiling in front of Zhou Man and Bai Shan, and reached out to pat the dirt on Liu Huan's knee, successfully making Liu Huan tremble.
Liu Shangshu said softly: "Okay, let's go play, have a good time today."
Man Bao and the others stood aside and watched, always feeling that Liu Shangshu's next sentence was "to die tomorrow", so Qi Qi looked at Liu Huan.
With tears in his eyes, Liu Huan followed Zhou Man and the others out tremblingly.
After getting into the carriage, he couldn't help wiping away his tears, and said sobbingly: "I don't want to be a knight, just give me Enyin a small official. There are so many Enyin's guards in the imperial city. There is no shortage of me, otherwise I can go to the Ministry of Rites or the Ministry of Industry and Households, why should I sign up for the examination of Mingjing?"
Liu Huan snapped his fingers and asked, "How much time is left?"
Bai Shan looked at him sympathetically, "Thirty-eight days."
Liu Huan burst into tears, "If I fail the exam, my grandfather will beat me to death. The last time my grandfather beat me five times, I was lying on the bed for two whole days."
Bai Shan: "...is it so powerful?"
"Yes, it's so swollen, can I still walk on the ground?"
Bai Erlang said: "Would you like Man Bao to prepare some wound medicine for you?"
Liu Huan held back his tears, "Forget it, don't."
Bai Shan smiled and said, "I'll sort out my notes and send them to you later."
Liu Huan's mood didn't improve, it became heavier, and he didn't love studying, and the learning materials couldn't comfort him at all.
Liu Huan couldn't help muttering: "I entered the Imperial Academy because of Enyin, and I entered the Chongwen Museum because of my grandfather. I never thought about taking the Mingjing examination this year. I agreed to take the exam after the Chongwen Museum finished. If I fail the exam, it's okay." En Yin became an official..."
Zhou's residence is not very far from Liu's residence, and it will arrive in about a quarter of an hour, so Bai Shan interrupted his chatter, "Okay, it doesn't matter if you fail the exam, you should be more obedient recently, and His Majesty will definitely forget about it by then. If he doesn't ask about it, Liu Shangshu's anger will be limited, at worst, he will hit you five times, and it won't be serious."
"real?"
"Really, at least you have a title now, and you are a fifth-rank Cong, a little stronger than your elder brother. Liu Shangshu won't be too angry."
Liu Huan touched his chin and said, "Yes, I seem to be more promising than my elder brother now."
Yin Ju couldn't help laughing out loud, and when he saw him looking over, he nodded and said, "That's right."
Liu Huan exhaled, he is not a fool, he vaguely guessed that the two are not the same, although he has a title, but if he is not capable, he will not have a real job.
And although his elder brother has no title, he has a real position and power, so he is naturally more promising than him.
When they arrived at Zhou's house, the Zhou family and the Bai family were also making preparations. This time, their imperial decree did not come out. A knighthood is a knighthood, and a reward is a reward.
Even Zhou Liru had a reward, and Mr. Zhuang's reward was also sent along.
After everyone took the things, they also stuffed them into the purses of the servants. Mrs. Liu prepared five, that is, one for each rewarded person.
The servant collected the money in front of the two princesses, and then smiled and greeted them for a while before leaving. He let out a sigh of relief as soon as he went out. Although this job earned a lot of money, it was really tiring.
