Ren Yushi suddenly lost his temper and was unbecoming. His attendants understood this very well. Since they were not far away, they all clearly heard Li You mention Mr. Zhao, the Zuodu Yushi, so they must be relying on him.
Only the General Constitution is enough, but there is a heavenly official who is even more terrible... Ren Yushi came to his senses and said quickly: "Tonight is a misunderstanding. If you don't fight, you won't get to know each other. I have disturbed Mr. Li, so I will offer you a drink tonight to apologize."
, please give me your respect, Mr. Li."
Li You said magnanimously: "It's all for official business of the imperial court. It's not worthy of anything, and there's no need to apologize. I'm tired on the next journey and can't stand the banquet, so I have to accept Sir Ren's wishes. We meet each other in the mountains and rivers, and we will have our own opportunities when we get to the capital."
Ren Yushi bowed repeatedly and said, "I have been ordered to go on a patrol. I am experiencing many inconveniences. We will meet again when we return to the capital someday."
He was about to exit the courtyard when he heard Li You ask again: "This great gentleman is upright and majestic. I admire him very much. I don't know his surname, so I might as well keep it in my heart."
The person he was asking was the censor's attaché who had scolded Li You twice. He could only see him staring blankly and speechless, looking at his superior as if asking for help.
Ren Yushi decisively threw up his sleeves and said: "Mr. Jiang can't be used anymore, just go back to the Xingren Department on your own!"
The so-called Pingren Division is a Qingshui yamen that has a large group of idle petty officials. Their main job is to travel on business. According to the system, whenever the imperial court sends officials out of Beijing, the required attendants are dispatched from the Pingren Division. Well, it is also the part-time job of the Imperial College students and
One of the main destinations for distribution.
This Mr. Jiang is from the Pingren Division. He was driven back by the chief officer just after he left the capital and arrived in Tongzhou. From now on, his job will be ruined. If he is lucky, he can become a member of the official army that has been selected for ten thousand years. If he is not lucky, he will go home.
Plant sweet potatoes.
Li You saw this in his eyes, and he took advantage of him and acted obediently. He thought that this censor had a cold temperament and should not be closely friends with him. He said nothing more at the moment and sent the guest away.
After the group of people left, Zhang Sankuan, who had just been extremely nervous, calmed down, shook his head and sighed: "In this world, the kind words of the master are not as good as a few pieces of paper."
Xiaozhu also came out of the house and said to Li You: "I think I won't send letters after I come to Beijing. These letters are more effective than the amulets I asked for in the temple. Just keep them with you for a few more days."
"Clever!" Li You praised: "This is a good idea."
There was no more conversation all night. In the early morning of the next day, Li You got up and went to Yi Cheng to ask for a car.
The Yi Cheng refused at first, feeling that Mr. Li could not control him no matter how proud he was, so he politely refused.
However, Mr. Li once again resorted to the magic weapon of letters and said that he was going to deliver a letter to his fellow countryman Lu Shangshu's house. The Yi Cheng immediately surrendered.
The post station is under the management of the Ministry of War, and Lu Shangshu is the minister of the Ministry of War. As a postmaster, you don't have to sell the face of others, so how dare you not sell the face of the Minister of War? After a while, two mules and carts stopped.
The entrance of Li You's courtyard.
Xiaozhu had never been in a car since he was growing up. He climbed into the car behind Li You with a little excitement. Zhang San, Han Zong and their luggage took another car.
The journey from Tongzhou to the capital was not too long. After noon, we saw the majestic city wall in the distance. A moment later, we arrived outside the east gate of the outer city. At this time, Xiaozhu was already acclimatized, and he felt dizzy and frowned as he swayed in the car.
Sad face.
Li You laughed at her and said to the driver outside: "That's it. I'll enter the city on my own."
The Dongbian Gate of the outer city is adjacent to the famous Chongwen Gate of the inner city. Travelers from the south who want to enter Beijing must transport their goods here from Tongzhou. They must first enter the Dongbian Gate and then pass through Chongwen Gate. There is no other way to go unless
After eating enough, I walked dozens of miles to Xuanwumen.
Therefore, the three miles between Dongbianmen and Chongwenmen can be called a golden treasure land, the largest goods distribution center in the world. Therefore, the Chongwenmen Customs House located here is also the first customs customs in this dynasty, similar to Suzhou Xushuguan and Shandong
Linqing Customs is also known as the three major customs in the world.
Who doesn't know in the officialdom that although the ambassador of the Chongwenmen Propaganda Branch is only the lowest-ranking ninth-rank official, he is one of the most fertile positions. He can easily and risk-free earn ten thousand taels of silver in one year without any problem.
As long as you work as a Chongwenmen tax collector for one year, you will have nothing to worry about for the rest of your life. Therefore, the position of tax collector is generally replaced after one year. Anyone who tries to work for two years will be outraged by both humans and gods.
The reputation of the tax collector at Chongwenmen is still famous even three hundred years later...but it is definitely not the stupid toll booth style of setting up a table and guarding the city gate to collect copper coins like in the stupid TV series.
Not to mention nonsense, Li You's back and legs were sore from sitting in the car, so he got off the car outside Dongbianmen. He hired a trolley to carry his luggage, and the four of them, master and servant, walked into the city.
Following the bustling flow of people and listening to the accents coming and going from north to south, Li You unknowingly walked outside Chongwen Gate. Li You looked up at the tower that reached into the sky, and looked down at the deep and deep doorway. He felt a little dazed for a moment, and suddenly felt
A bit similar to the idea of being more timid about being close to nostalgia.
Oh my fate, I changed my lifestyle and ended up going to school in Beijing again!
After passing Chongwenmen, the flow of people is slightly less than in the outer city. This is the southeastern corner of the entire inner city, and the Suzhou Guild Hall is not far from Chongwenmen.
Li You and Han Zong were fine, but Zhang San and Xiaozhu were looking around. The streets were straight, with gray bricks and green tiles, and the scenery of the imperial capital was fresh everywhere.
Suddenly a little donkey passed by their group. The donkey was not surprised, but there was a young woman sitting sideways on the donkey. This made Zhang San's eyes go straight. He had never seen a woman riding a donkey in his thirty years of life.
Beasts take to the streets.
Seeing Zhang San staring at her, the young woman shouted loudly: "What are you looking at! Have you never seen a woman riding a donkey?"
Zhang San looked away awkwardly and said sarcastically: "The lady in the capital is really extraordinary."
Li You laughed, "The rouges of the North are of course different from the beauties of the South of the Yangtze River. They are not so easy to offend."
The Suzhou Guild Hall is located in the alleys of Suzhou (fictional). In these days, the Guild Hall was a place that integrated food, clothing, housing and other functions with fellow villagers' friendship, mutual aid and relief. It was also a place where poor local officials from the capital could eat, drink and fight for free.
Li You was a famous person in Suzhou and a seventh-rank official, so it was natural that he stayed at the local guild hall for free. That night, the steward of the Suzhou guild hall even acted as host and treated Li You to a drink.
On the second day after arriving in the capital, Mr. Li ran out and went to the Imperial College. It was not because he was enthusiastic about studying, but because he didn't know much about the Imperial College and was unsure.
As for other yamen in the officialdom, he knew a lot about them, but he knew a little bit about them. Only a marginal place like the Imperial College, he was really unfamiliar with it. But the matter was related to his own future, so he was anxious to ask for details, otherwise he would not be able to feel completely at ease.

There are many questions that I don't understand - how to sit in prison, boarding school or day school? How to study in classes? How long does it take to study? One year, four years? How is it considered to be out of school? Isn't it just a matter of passing the exam?
