Chapter 180 Is your map a little short?

When I first arrived at the Hanlin Academy, I didn't even know where I was, so I was transferred directly to Zhan Shifu.

Xia Yuan's mood was a little hard to describe. In fact, he thought copying books was quite good. It sounded boring, but through the previous conversation between Li Tingxiang and the Hanlin Minister, he had already seen through the essence of copying books in the Hanlin Academy.

This is not a job at all. Even judging from his experience of being a social worker for many years in his previous life and receiving countless blessings, it probably doesn't matter whether he copies this book or not. This is obviously an excellent position for fishing.

Sitting there all day long is just a fool's errand.

He really liked this kind of work.

But now he has been transferred to Zhan Shifu, where he has to be with the second prince all day long, and this position is also called Xi Ma of the Economic Affairs Bureau.

Speaking of which, the rank of this poor official is not low. He was promoted from the fifth rank to a full rank. In other words, his official robe with a heron patch can be replaced.

But just by looking at the word "horse washing", Xia Yuan could conclude that this was not a serious job.

A horse washer?

Or a horse breeder?

Under Li Tingxiang's extremely envious eyes, Xia Yuan walked out of the Hanlin Academy with the official document, and then walked towards the East Palace with a pained face. He was riding a horse, and I was so warm.

I remember that Zhu Houzhao, the dog prince, raised a lot of horses.

However, it was a pain in the ass, and Xia Yuan knew very well how jealous his job was. Not to mention washing horses, but also breeding horses, there would probably be a lot of people vying to do it.

After all, this is Zhan Shi's Mansion. If you can enter the Imperial Academy, you have a bright future. If you can enter Zhan Shi's Mansion, it means that the ancestral graves are smoking.

Zhan Shifu is a subordinate of the prince, especially since the current emperor only has such a precious son. Anyone with a sound mind knows that as long as the prince does not die before the emperor, he will surely ascend the throne and become emperor in the future.

As for the officials of Zhan Shifu, big and small, they were the ministers of Qiandi. When the prince became the emperor, they immediately followed him to great success.

Zhan Shifu is in the East Palace

The East Palace, the East Palace, is naturally to the east of the Forbidden City wall, and the Hanlin Academy is also to the east of the Forbidden City. The two places are very close to each other, even only separated by a wall.

After all, the relationship between the Hanlin Academy and Zhan Shifu is very special. It can be said that Zhan Shifu is the domestic sales place for talents from the Hanlin Academy.

The entire East Palace is divided into two parts: the inner and outer parts. The inner palace is the residence of the prince, which is the East Palace in the true sense. No one is allowed to enter. The imperial guards are guarding the palace.

The outside part is the so-called Zhanshi Mansion, such as Zuo Chunfang, You Chunfang, and the Bureau of Economic Affairs, all of which are here.

After submitting the documents, the clerk took him to the Economic Affairs Bureau. Only then did Xia Yuan know what he was doing as a horse washer. Literally, he was a horse washer, but he was not a horse washer.

To put it bluntly, he is actually the librarian. Oh, I should call him the librarian more appropriately.

This economic bureau is the place where the entire East Palace, or the Zhan Shifu, stores books. The environment is deep and quiet, with no one around. Here stands a three-story hall, or a super-large attic is more appropriate.

It's seven rooms wide, and I don't know how deep it is. Anyway, it looks quite majestic. Inside the three-story hall, there are a vast amount of books stored.

There was a dazzling collection of books of all kinds. When they reached the third floor, Xia Yuan's eyes were still passing through the bookshelves and halls.

Until he passed by a side hall, his steps suddenly stopped, he twisted around and walked straight in. He picked up a book from the bookshelf in the side hall and read through it.

The clerk who was following him immediately complimented him when he saw this: "No wonder, sir, you have won the top prize in high school at such a young age, and you can also serve as the head of the economic bureau. You can see through it just because of this, sir. It really makes the students ashamed."

It’s so terrible.”

Xia Yuan turned to look at him, put the book back, and scanned the bookshelves in the side hall. Judging by the number of books alone, there were probably thousands.

And these thousands of books are all Yongle Dadian.

"Are all the Yongle Grand Ceremonies in this Economic Bureau?" he asked.

"Of course there is no such thing. There are more than 20,000 volumes of the Yongle Grand Canon. This side hall stores more than 800 volumes. Several side halls inside also store hundreds of volumes. In total, there are only more than 3,000 volumes.

"

After the clerk finished speaking, he paused and asked again: "Sir, do you want to check the specific amount? The student will get you a directory right now."

"No, I'm just asking casually."

Xia Yuan paced out and suddenly turned around and said, "Where are all the Yongle Ceremonies?"

The unsuspecting clerk was startled by the attack. After calming down, he said: "Yes, there is a part in the Wenhua Hall of Yingtian Mansion, and a part is also stored in the Wenhua Hall of the palace."

"oh"

Xia Yuan nodded and did not continue to ask this topic. Instead, he asked: "Are we the only two people in such a large Tusi Economic Bureau?"

"Students dare not stand side by side with adults."

Xia Yuan followed the good advice, "Then it's just me?"

"Currently, you are the only official. The Bureau of Economic Affairs has basically nothing to do on weekdays, and His Highness the Crown Prince will not come here to study. He usually goes to Wenhua Hall with all the lecturers.

The official position of the Economic and Economic Affairs Bureau has been vacant for two or three years, and there is no one to fill the position of an official in the Economic and Economic Affairs Bureau."

"I am a polished commander?"

"?"

The clerk was startled, what a polished commander?

He chewed the word in his mind several times, combined with the previous conversation, and soon understood what this polished commander meant.

"Sir, you are really knowledgeable. It seems that students have never heard of such vocabulary. This bare pole is a unique number. Si means to be in charge, and the command means to give orders. Commander, commander, is really appropriate.

But you are right, you are indeed the only polished commander in this economic bureau, there is no other commander, but there are still many secretaries like students."

Xia Yuan nodded slightly, thought for a while and asked, "Then what is my job?"

"Your Excellency, you just sit and drink tea in the public room. His Royal Highness the Prince does not come here to study on weekdays. I am responsible for the maintenance of these books."

Just as he was talking, there was a faint sound of footsteps, like the sound of stepping on wooden stairs. The footsteps were messy, from far to near. Soon, a young man in brocade robes ran up with two eunuchs.

Seeing this young man, the clerk was stunned. He inexplicably felt that this man looked very familiar. He was quickly frightened. He quickly took a few steps forward and fell to his knees. Then he bowed his head and knelt on the ground.

I recognized His Highness the Crown Prince to his face, and I hope His Highness will forgive me!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah"

Zhu Houzhao nodded perfunctorily several times, giving the book office a lot of face. Then he walked around the book office and walked straight to Xia Yuan, with excitement and confusion on his face, "Master, you What are you doing here in the library of the economic bureau? I can easily find the harmful ones."

"I am the horse washer of the Economic and Economic Affairs Bureau, what do you think?"

"Horse washing?"

Zhu Houzhao was startled and turned to look at Liu Jin, "Does Zhan Shifu still have this official position?"

Liu Jin was about to answer when he heard this, but Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said, "Forget it, don't talk about this."

After saying that, he turned his eyes back and asked directly: "Master, can you lend me some money?"

Hearing this, Xia Yuan was shocked. What did this guy think? We just met, and before we even said a few words, he started borrowing money. Why don't you try some tricks and respect me?
