Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 350 Xiao Chenyu is imprisoned

Those who are not Jinshi will not be admitted to Hanlin, and those who are not Hanlin will not be admitted to the cabinet. When you become a Jinshi, you have to be divided into three, six or nine grades.

The first class, of course, was to enter Hanlin. Although it was a Qingshui Yamen, the Hanlin Academy was a literary aide set up beside the emperor, responsible for the examination and discussion system to prepare the emperor's advisors.

Specific responsibilities: serving as an attendant in and out of the Hanlin Academy, presiding over all banquets, banquets, and book compilations; in charge of the compilation of national history, including astronomy, geography, ancestral affairs, rituals, music, military punishment, and other major affairs; in charge of the emperor's edicts, edicts, edicts, and records. Record them for actual records; offer sacrifices to the gods in suburban temples, write congratulations, and so on.

Therefore, Xiao Chenyu entered Hanlin, and Du Ziren naturally also entered Hanlin.

Both of them entered Hanlin, so their treatment was naturally very different.

However, fortunately, it is said that Xiao Chenyu's back is the Ninth Prince's Mansion, so there is no embarrassment to him openly. It's just that this difficulty does not happen behind his back at all times.

For example: after leaving the government office, Du Ziren generously invited everyone to a large restaurant for dinner, but forgot to call Xiao Chenyu. Even those who were on night watch would be rewarded with a table of good wine and food.

There is a large library in the Hanlin Academy with three floors, one of which is in the basement.

Books and documents that are not important, not commonly used, and have not been sorted, filed, or repaired are placed here.

However, due to lack of manpower, fewer and fewer people are visiting here. Xiao Chenyu was assigned to repair the books that were damaged due to moisture and insects.

The basement floor of the library was also cleaned before Xiao Chenyu came, but the cleaning was not done carefully, and it was mostly just to look clean.

Therefore, Xiao Chenyu first spread out the books one by one, wiped the dust on the books and shelves, and then checked the condition of the books hastily, which can be regarded as a general review of the contents of the books.

Cleaning is not difficult for Xiao Chenyu, and there are so many books to read, so he is quite content with it.

He took the paper again, cut it into thin strips, made a record of the books he had turned over, and stuck it in the book. Next time he would just walk by and see the record on the note, he would know whether the book needed to be repaired. ?
When he recovered from a row of books with a sore back, he realized that it was almost time to go to the Yamen.

He climbed up the stairs with a lighting lamp, and when he reached the second floor, he realized that it was already dark. It turned out that he had stayed downstairs so late, and he couldn't help but laugh a little.

There are people who call him "xiayamen" all the time. Why is no one calling him "xiayamen" today?

The library had long been deserted, and the sound of quiet breathing was amplified several times.

Xiao Chenyu liked the silence a little, and walked towards the door in a happy mood.

Before he reached the door, he suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.

The door of this library is usually not closed. There is a clerk sitting at the door who is on duty. People who come in and out just register.

Of course, most people who come to the library of the Hanlin Academy are from the Hanlin Academy. Most of them go in directly and the scribes will take notes themselves.

But now, the door is closed, and the clerk's position is deserted.

As expected, the door was locked from the outside.

Xiao Chenyu pulled hard, but couldn't pull it at all.

He shouted several times outside, but there was still no movement. Only a wild cat meowed twice, which was considered a response to Xiao Chenyu's call.

Then he pushed all the windows on the first floor one by one. As a result, for some reason, the windows were all locked from the outside and could not be pushed at all.

At this time, Xiao Chenyu already knew that he was locked here.

It was freezing cold, and he was locked in a building full of books for the night. He would suffer a serious illness even if he didn't die. This man was really very vicious.

The Hanlin Academy is very big, so there are naturally people who keep watch at night, but most of them don't come to the library. However, I would also walk outside the library at night to check for fires and other conditions.

Xiao Chenyu can just wait for the night watchman to come and call for help again.

But Xiao Chenyu had some bad premonitions in his heart. Since that person wanted to deal with him and could take everyone away in advance and lock the doors and windows from the outside, who knows if there is a back-up plan?
He couldn't wait here for an unknown situation to happen, and Qin Sui and her family would definitely be worried, and worry could easily lead to accidents.

The first floor of the library was very high. Xiao Chenyu went to the second floor and found that there was an east-facing window on the second floor that was not tightly closed.

However, outside this window is a lake covered with thin ice. If someone is not careful, he may slip into the lake, which will really make the sky and the earth inoperable.

If Xiao Chenyu is a weak scholar, the possibility of getting out of here is very small.

However, Xiao Chenyu was a child who had climbed trees and went to the river since he was young. Ever since Uncle Qi came, he had been practicing martial arts with him without stopping for a day. So now, Xiao Chenyu only exerted a little force, kicked open the unlocked window, and then crawled out.

The second floor of the library is much higher than the second floor of an ordinary small building. Xiao Chenyu stood on the roof tiles on the first floor and looked into the distance.

Lights have been lit everywhere, and there is still a glimmer of light in the sky that has not yet dissipated.

Xiao Chenyu moved cautiously, and although he slipped a few times, he was not in danger.

Avoiding the lake, Xiao Chenyu finally moved to the roof on the other side. There was a tent of bushes underneath and there was still snow on the ground. Xiao Chenyu found a slightly safer place and rolled down.

He curled up and held his head with his hands, protecting his chest and abdomen. His back was still scratched by the rocks under the bushes.

He stood up and moved his hands and feet. Fortunately, his hands and feet were intact and he could move freely. He didn't care about the slight pain on his back. He straightened his clothes and hair, picked up his official hat and put it on, and with the help of weak light After checking Bai Xue's reflection, he found that everything he was wearing was there, and then he walked out.

The front yard of the Hanlin Academy is where our Hanlin Academy offices are located. The library is at the back, and there is a large courtyard in the middle with only a few not-so-tall trees.

Xiao Chenyu clasped his hands behind his back and walked slowly to the front yard. As expected, he saw several night watchmen eating and chatting around a table of delicious food and wine.

"How about I go back and take a look. It's already dark here. If the lamp oil is out, it will be dark and cold in there."

"Go if you dare. I don't dare. But don't say I didn't remind you. That man offended Mr. Du. Mr. Du said that he was just giving him some pain, and he wouldn't really do anything to him. ?”

"But today, being locked up in the library is not going to be a hardship!"

".well!"

After a sigh, there was only the sound of clinking bowls and chopsticks.

After a long time, the well-intentioned person asked again: "You said, they are all classmates in the same class, why is Mr. Du so dissatisfied with him?"

He originally wanted to say hostility, but felt something was wrong, so he changed his words.

Those people didn't understand either, so they shook their heads and said, "When we finish eating, let's go to the backyard and release the people. There is a Nine Prince's Mansion behind this one."

"The Ninth Prince doesn't care about anything. Is this person the guest of Princess Yaoxiang?"

Everyone looked at each other tacitly, and then there was a burst of laughter with unknown meaning.

"My lords are so excited that I actually invited Zuixianju's food and drinks to the Hanlin Academy to eat and drink. The food in Zuixianju is not cheap. It seems that Hanlin Academy is Qingshui Yamen, which is not worthy of its name!"

Xiao Chenyu listened clearly under the window, calmly opened the door and walked in with a gentle smile on his face.

The people who were laughing in the room turned around, the smiles on their faces froze. Those who raised their wine glasses paused to find them empty, and those who picked up the duck breasts dropped them on the table.
