The First Imperial Examination Chapter 20 Imperial Decree
Chapter 20 Imperial Edict
After Wang Wei got up in the morning, he went to the main room to have breakfast with his grandmother and his parents, and accompanied his father to drink tea. He was about to wait for his mother to come and take her to go to the college after she had her body measured. The family was very harmonious with talking and laughing. At this time, a noise came from outside, and Wang Cheng, who was watching the doorman, ran in panic!
"Master, Master, it's amazing!" Wang Cheng shouted while running. His face was covered in sweat! He didn't care. Da Qiu was still sweaty, which shows how fast he ran!
"I'm so panicked, what kind of morality? My Wang family is soon a family of officials, and the servants are not as moral as a family!" Wang Wei was secretly amused. Before he could even tell the horoscope, he wanted to set rules for the servants. This was too impatient!
"Master, the imperial edict! The imperial edict is here!" Wang Cheng snatched into the house and said loudly.
"What? The imperial edict?" The prince's father no longer lamented that the servants were unconventional and reserved! He still didn't know that the tea bowls were on the ground.
"Yes, Master, it's an imperial edict to the young master! The person who sent the edict is at the door! Let the young master go to receive the edict! Master?" Wang Cheng replied. Wang Wei was also shocked! What edict was Li Shimin passed on to himself? I'm afraid he can't stand it yet? Well, it should be a good thing! Because he didn't do anything bad! Even if he did it, he wouldn't be able to use Li Shimin's edict to him! It seems that a good thing has fallen on him.
Seeing that the family was panicked, Wang Wei secretly laughed. Isn’t the emperor also a human being? Isn’t it just to spread a message? Is it necessary to do this?
"Father, the person who sent the order is already outside the door. Should I open the courtyard door quickly and set up the table to prepare for the order?" Wang Wei reminded. At this time, the butler of the Qing Dynasty was also sweating.
"Master, what should I do? We haven't experienced it before." The butler of the Qing Dynasty didn't care about the greetings and asked directly what to do with his father.
"Well, madam, hurry up and prepare the incense burner on the table, and my son will go with his father and Uncle Qing to greet him!" Although the prince's father was very excited, he still ordered calmly.
"Master, where is this?" asked the mother.
"Just put it here." The father pointed at the front of the door and said.
Wang Wei also quickly pulled the butler aside and instructed: "Grandpa Qing, hurry up and prepare the golden leaves!" Although he had never seen the eunuch, he knew that eunuchs loved money whether they were reading books or watching TV. As long as money could solve the problem, it was not a problem for the Wang family!
"Uh,?" The butler was a little confused.
"Give me the eunuch!"
Alas, I am quite smart, but I panicked at the critical moment. I still haven’t seen the world before! Wang Wei thought.
"Ah, yes, young master!" The Qing Da Butler finally realized and ran away!
Wang Wei and his father rushed to the front door together. There were already many people gathered, including servants and neighbors watching and pointing fingers.
Seeing that his father didn't know what to do, Wang Wei had to come to the eunuch who was sent to the imperial eunuch and bowed his hand.
"This father-in-law has invited me, student Wang Wei. I hope my father-in-law will forgive me if he is negligent when receiving the imperial edict!"
"Oh, you are Wang Wei? You are so young and promising! Prepare for the incense table to accept the order!" Well, he is indeed a eunuch. Is this voice difficult or not? I don't know how the emperor can bear it every day! Although he thinks so, Wang Wei dare not be negligent at all!
He quickly asked to the yard: "Sir!" He invited the eunuch and two guards to the yard together.
When I arrived at the door of the main room, my mother had already prepared the incense table, which was a long case with an incense burner on it, and a few freshly lit incense sticks were inserted! After the eunuch came to the incense table, he opened the imperial edict, golden!
"Tong Sheng Wang Wei kneeled to receive the imperial edict!" the eunuch shouted.
Wang Wei hurried to the incense table and knelt on the ground, thinking in his heart that it was Li Shimin who was kneeling, but you were either you dead eunuch. Damn it, we haven't even kneeled before even seeing Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and Li Jing! Alas, why is Li Shimin a generation of wise kings? Just kneel down! My father also came to the side and knelt down. Seeing his father kneeling, everyone in the yard knelt down, and the eunuch and the guards were still standing. The eunuch nodded with satisfaction.
"In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered that the emperor said, "Now Tong has been born Wang Wei, whose courtesy name is Shuyi. He has made good contributions to the people. I am very pleased to you! He rewarded fifty silver and ten pieces of silk. He was awarded the same Jinshi and was kind to Xuanyilang! The Secretariat listened to him and gave him an imperial gift."
This is over? The emperor is different now, and it is easy to write an imperial edict! Wang Wei thought. But just one article of strategy, why do you become an official? This is just a Jinshi who is no longer required to take the imperial examination. Damn it, it has been a ten-year vain. A policy statement has become a Jinshi, and he also gave a essay official Yilang. This is from the seventh rank, and he can be the county magistrate of the county. However, if Wang Wei goes to the Shangshu Province to listen to it, he probably will study it!
"Wang Xuanyilang has not accepted the order yet!" The eunuch reminded Wang Wei in a daze.
He hurriedly bowed to the ground: "I received the order to thank you! Long live my emperor!" Wang Wei didn't know if this was right, but he said so anyway!
"Haha, Xuan Yilang, please get up." said the eunuch.
Wang Wei stood up and took two steps to the eunuch, respectfully taking the imperial edict and holding it in his hand.
"Congratulations to Xuan Yilang, the miscellaneous family!" the eunuch said with a smile.
"I am happy together, my father-in-law worked hard all the way, so I also asked for a tea in the house! You two also asked for a rest in the house. Please." He reached out and asked for it.
Wang Wei accompanied the eunuch and two guards into the house, and placed the imperial edict respectfully on the table in the main room. Only his father and the butler followed in, and the butler personally poured tea for everyone and retreated aside.
"This is the student's father."
"Congratulations to Mr. Wang." The eunuch bowed repeatedly.
"I dare not take it, I am happy with each other. My father-in-law also asked me to sit down. The servants have prepared wine and food, so please use some simple meals!"
"This is a blessing. The family still has to go back to the palace to reply. They will leave after drinking tea."
Damn, are you obviously waiting for a bribe? Hurry up and give the butler a look. The butler nodded with understanding, and came to the eunuch and took out a small bag.
"My father-in-law and the two adults cannot keep food, so please use it to make some wine." The butler was also very good at speaking.
"This is not good, right?" As he said that, he took the bag, his hands sank, and his face changed. It seemed that it was gold!
"Haha, that miscellaneous family is also happy! Lord Xiao Wang, Your Majesty admires you very much! There are not many people who directly award the Jinshi grades! The future will be boundless!" The eunuch took the gold and said with a smile.
"Students thank Your Majesty for the praise, and the students are deeply frightened!" Wang Wei bowed to the north. This was also from the TV. Judging from the eunuch's expression, he was really not rude today.
"There are not many mercy families, so Lord Xiao Wang also asked to go to the Shangshu Province to report a number." He said that, and stood up.
"Yes, Eunuch Xie will give me some advice!" Wang Wei also knew that eunuchs could not stay outside the palace for too long.
After seeing off the eunuchs and guards, the Wang family was thrilled! Congratulations from neighbors were heard endlessly! My father ordered the butler to reward him! The butler took out copper coins to spread the yard and alleys! In the midst of noisy, Wang Wei and his father came to the main room, and their mother accompanied their grandmother to wipe their tears. "Why are you an official now?" He also heard grandmother muttering.
"Wei'er, Wei'er, has my good grandson really become an official?" Grandma saw Wang Wei coming in and grabbed Wang Wei and asked incredible face.
"Well, this is true, grandma, your grandson is an official, and it is still a seventh rank!" Wang Wei comforted his grandma while helping him sit down.
"Why are you an official?" Grandma still didn't understand and asked, grabbing Wang Wei's hand!
"Grandma, my grandson wrote a policy, and the emperor thought it was useful, so he let my grandson become an official. Grandma rest assured that my grandson will work hard to serve the country and the people, and also earn an imperial edict for you and your father and mother!"
"Well, my grandson is promising! OK, okay." Grandma murmured.
Seeing that his mother was wiping her tears while wiping her tears, Wang Wei came to her and said, "Mother, you asked her to measure clothes for her child today, but it's not just for children's clothes. She wants to make seventh-grade green robe. The child can wear official clothes now, haha."
"Puchi!" The mother turned to tears and laughed: "Yeah, Wei'er can really wear official clothes? Isn't this dreaming?" The mother still couldn't believe it.
"My son still has to report the number today. Now it's too late to do it, so he can only go to the garment shop to pick it up. Xiaoqing hurried to invite the butler to come here!" Seeing that Xiaoqing was the only one in the house, his father quickly ordered.
"Yes, lord!" Xiaoqing turned around and ran out.
"My son has to rely on himself in the future. He must be cautious. He can't help his father in the court. I will ask more adults in the future!"
"Yes, father, don't worry, I'm just participating in the study now. I will definitely ask you all humbly."
At this time, Xiaoqing and the butler came in together.
"The villain congratulates the old lady, master, lady and young master!" The butler congratulated happily.
"Haha, it's really gratifying. Uncle Qing quickly arranged someone to go to the garment shop to get some sets of official clothes for Wei'er. Wei'er is about to report the number!" The mother said anxiously.
"It's the lady. The villain will go now."
"Don't forget it's a green robe!" said the father.
"Xiaoman, go to the academy to ask for leave for the young master. Then when he saw Mr. Wei, he asked Mr. Wei to wait for me in Deyuelou, and asked him to accompany me to report the number later. He said that I had never been to such a place, so he asked him to give me some advice. Hurry up, run away." Wang Wei called Xiaoman and ordered.
"Yes, Master, don't worry!" He turned around and ran away!
"Well, it's good, letting Mr. Wei accompany him is much better than me!" My father nodded and said.
After chatting with his father, mother and grandmother for a while, the Qing Dynasty butler also came to discuss with his father about the rewards and the three-day recreational banquet will be held in the next three days to show his congratulations! Wang Wei doesn't need to ask about these! His father and the butler are both experts! Wang Wei only needs to go to register for a number today (that is, to register) and then go to Fang Xuanling's mansion to thank his master tomorrow. Of course, he also has to invite a banquet for a banquet for his classmates, but Wang Wei does not intend to invite a banquet for his classmates, and there is no one who has made sincerity except Wei Shuyu! The day after tomorrow, just ask Wei Shuyu to make an appointment with a few young masters he just met.
