Jinyi Night Walk

The rankings are officially released today, and the top three have just been released.The Minister of Rites did not come to welcome the envoys of the two countries, but he was busy with this matter.

Seeing that the person coming from the opposite side was a guard of honor of foreign envoys led by Minister of the Ministry of Officials, the students who shouted excitedly did not dare to rush, and hurriedly stepped aside.Meng Fusheng is the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and he is also very concerned about the situation of the current imperial examinations. He reined in his horse, asked a few words from the students who surrounded Kuama, who had won the list, and paraded through the streets. He clicked his tongue in admiration.

Pingnu saw many Confucian shirt students on the street.Coupled with the people watching, I am afraid that tens of thousands of people will not be abandoned.Such a spectacular scene has never been seen before. Out of curiosity, I asked Xia Xun. She already knew that this was the situation when she was ranked in the imperial examination of the Middle Kingdom, but it was the first time she saw it. She couldn't help being curious. The horse came back and shook his head and tail, and he was even more curious, so he asked, "My lord, why are you so surprised?  …

Everyone has a love of beauty. More than ten years ago, when the Japanese tribute envoy came to pay a pilgrimage to Emperor Hongwu.Meng Fusheng, who was still a minor official in the Ministry of Rites at that time, had received them and already knew what their appearances were like.But he has been used to it for more than ten years, because the [Japanese] nobles of this era are so shockingly beautiful, he still can't accept it.

On the contrary, he was very pleasing to the eyes of these people from the back of the mountain. When he saw the beautiful princess asking him, Meng Shilang hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I don't know something. I have tens of thousands of students in this course." There are only one hundred and one hundred scholars, but it is surprising that the top three, the champion, the second place, and Tanhua are all from Ji'an Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, and the top three champions and Tanhua are also from Ji'an Prefecture. Six people from Zhongji'an occupied five seats, and Wu Pu, the No. [-] champion, was still Huiyuan. Such a concentration has never been seen before...

The nose girl was shocked when she heard this, and exclaimed: "Ten thousand people take the imperial examination, one hundred people take the exam, and one hundred people take the top spot, and all of them are concentrated in one place. Your country has a vast territory. Is this a very rare thing?"

Meng Shilang nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, it's unheard of before!".

Xia Xun listened on the sidelines, and was also secretly surprised. He immediately thought of Hong Wuzun's North-South scientific research case, and thought in his mind: "The top six and five Ji'an people will not make trouble, and the "North-South list case is really nothing." People are noisy, because the north and south have been divided into rankings, and regional differences have been fully considered.Be as fair as possible.The students in Nanbang also know that Ji'an Mansion is indeed the place with the strongest style of study in the south.The examiner of the undergraduate Qiu Wei is Fang Xiaoru Fang Xiaoru is from Xijiang and Ninghai and has been a professor of government studies in Hanzhong Mansion, even if he is partial.He should also favor the elders in his hometown or his students in Hanzhong Mansion.However, there are not many students in these two places.

At that time, Ji'an Mansion was indeed outstanding, and it was the best in the world.Later, the imperial examination in the second year of Yongle was even more sensational than this time. A total of 470 scholars were selected for that subject, so many people.The top three in the top ranks and the top four in the second ranks are all from Ji'an Prefecture, and there are seven cabinet scholars, five of whom are also from Ji'an Prefecture, which shows the prosperity of the local literary style.

Ping Nu sighed in admiration, Xia Xun had a look of shock on her face, but He Tianyang was the only one who looked around and didn't react at all to any questions in the book.Meng Shilang glanced at him secretly, and said to himself, "This prince and concubine seems to know a lot about my Middle-earth culture, but this prince with a big beard seems to be an ignorant person... ………

The envoys of the two countries did not meet immediately, but were taken into the Honglu Temple where foreign envoys were specially housed.Let them stay, and then the Ministry of Etiquette will arrange personnel to teach them the etiquette of advancing and retreating in the court, so as not to lose your manners.

This is nothing to Xia Xun.With a bitter face, He Tianyang followed a little official from the Ministry of Rituals, saluted and bowed. After three days, he was miserable.

[Japan] The envoys of the Japanese country and the Shanhou country were arranged in the left and right courtyards, separated by a main hall and a main courtyard, and they lived in peace with each other.Not communicating with each other, there was no conflict during these three days.Xia Xun hadn't contacted his people for the past three days. He had just arrived in Nanjing, and it was time to attract attention, so it was inappropriate to make any moves at this time.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and He Tianyang has almost learned the etiquette, those red tapes.At least after making gestures, he already looks pretty good. Early in the morning, he was led by Honglu Temple and went straight to the palace.

The prince and concubine also want to enter the palace, but they don't have to go to the court to meet her. The queen is in the harem to receive her. Xia Xun can't go to the court with her status, so she can only wait outside the Meridian Gate." He looked at He Tianyang and saw He Tianyang sitting in the car In the middle of the night, his eyes were straightened, he was muttering words, and he was still carrying some etiquette in court, so he was really worried.

He thought about it.Then he instructed: "Tianyang, in terms of etiquette, you don't have to be too restrained, as long as you show a respectful and sincere attitude. It doesn't matter even if you make a small mistake in the etiquette system. You must know that in the eyes of my officials, The barbarians in all directions are uncivilized. Therefore, even if you make a mistake out of ignorance, no one will laugh at you. Instead, you will take it for granted.

So, it's okay to be rude.

It doesn't matter if the language is vulgar, just pay attention.You are a small country on the border, you just need to be in awe of the upper country.Remember, two things must be said.One: You came this time to establish a tributary relationship with Daming, and asked the Emperor of Ming Dynasty to give you a reconnaissance. You have come from a long way. I have long admired the culture of Shangguo, and I want to stay in the capital to learn the customs and cultural relics of *country, thank you Did you recite all the words I taught you?"

Thank you for drafting the speech for him, although it has been as colloquial as possible, to He Tianyang's ears, it is still somewhat contrived, but fortunately, since he left Shuangyu, he has to recite it several times a day.I really learned it by rote.He Tianyang wiped off his sweat and nodded to Xia Xun.Barely grinned and smiled.

Seeing him nervous and sweating profusely.Xia Xun was in a hurry, and asked again worriedly: "The national book, have you also memorized it? You are illiterate, so don't take the national book upside down, or read it wrong.".

Pingnv couldn't bear the embarrassment of the man she liked so much, so she said for him, "Don't worry, my lord. Pingnv has to test these words several times every day with Brother Tianyang, and he has memorized them all by heart...

He Tianyang wiped the pearls that kept popping out again, and said in a low voice, "Yes, yes, I... I can recite it. Don't interrupt me... I just need to start and I can do it. If I was interrupted in the middle of the speech, then, I would not be able to remember...

Xia Xun wants to laugh, but how can he laugh at such a juncture?" He thought for a while, then said, "Don't worry, no one will interrupt others easily in the hall, if someone interrupts you, I will call you I can't remember how to say it, so you pretended to be very respectful, and I said it again, people only said that you didn't want to be rude to the emperor of Shangguo, at most they laughed at you for being rigid and not having other ideas...

He Tianyang nodded vigorously, without looking at the two of them, just murmured: "The apocalypse is great. All nations are surrounded by light: there is no shock in the sea, and the country of [China] is at peace. Anyone who is on the coast is not alone. Qin However, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the four sages passed on the industry, the three sides, the nine peace, the Wei Jiayu, and the guests of the four seas. The tribute festival does not enter, and the fate of the poor city is full of dangers. The road is far away. Today, the king of the mountain. The special son looks up at the glory of the country. Dedicates the party... ...".

Ping Nu took out her handkerchief.Wiping the sweat from his sideburns, he complained to Xia Xun, "Your Excellency, stop talking."See you push him.... ,, "Okay, okay, I won't say anymore...

Xia Xun gave a wry smile.Stepping back to the side, he felt uneasy: "Is this guy going to work?  …

Emperor Jianwen sat in court and received envoys from Japan and Shanhou at the same time.

The first person to see him was Mitsuo Shimadzu, the maintenance doctor of the Japanese envoy, and He Tianyang didn't fight him.Dr. Shimadzu saw that he had seized the opportunity, so he came forward triumphantly, and explained to Zhu Yunqi Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's willingness to rebuild the tributary relationship with Ming Dynasty, and presented a list of gifts, including a thousand taels of gold, ten horses, and a hundred fans. Book, two pairs of screens, ten waists of swords, ten handles of knives, and one combination of inkstones.

It was the first time for Zhu Yunwen to see the attire of Japanese aristocrats. As soon as he saw the image of Dr. Shimadzu, Zhu Yunwen's eyebrows and eyes twitched wildly.It was with great difficulty that he resisted the urge to laugh violently, and sat on it pretending to be dignified and solemn.When it was the turn of the Shanhou Kingdom, seeing that the princes of the Shanhou Kingdom were similar to the people of Ming Dynasty in terms of clothing, appearance and appearance, they were three-point friendly and seven-point pleasing to the eye.

Although He Tianyang memorized the national book by heart, but because he was worried about making mistakes, the more he thought about it, the more nervous he became.So, stumbling. 〖Japanese〗The envoys of the foreign country kept curling their lips, and the corners of their mouths were almost on their ears, but in the eyes of Zhu Yunwen and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, they took it for granted.Stumbling on words?Doesn't this just mean that the barbarian small state is in awe of the state's majesty, friends; his behavior is a bit rude?Barbarians, uncivilized, can do this well.

In the end, He Tianyang did not forget Xia Xun's instructions.Tributary trade was also proposed, which must be mentioned, otherwise why did you come here?If you don't mention it, it will inevitably make people suspicious, and then you propose to live in Daming for a longer period of time and accept the influence of Daming's customs.I, Chinese people, have always been good teachers.There is no such thing as disapproval.

When the envoys of the two countries had finished seeing each other, Emperor Jianwen gave gifts in the hall.Ru Chang, Meng Fusheng and the others had already reported to him about the turmoil outside the welcoming pavilion.In order not to cause the envoys of the two countries to quarrel again, Zhu Yunqi treated them equally, regardless of the size of their tribute gifts, both countries gave the same things, including a gauze hat, a golden rhinoceros belt, and a pair of red clothes.Four horses of silk.Luo four horses, full of silk cloth.Because the king and concubine at the back of the mountain also came together, she was given four extra bolts of silk, four bolts of silk, and ten bolts of fine cloth.

Of course, these gifts are much lighter than the gifts from the two countries, but since they are promised to trade with Daming, they will not suffer.In the future, they can easily bring some goods back from [China], and they can sell them at a very good price.

He Tianyang was very happy, Master Yang's order, he finally completed it satisfactorily, the next day, isn't it just eating, drinking, traveling around the mountains?This kind of, "drudgery." He loved it.But who knows.The problem is precisely in eating and drinking.

Zhu Yunwen of Longyan Dayue’s prosperity is still unfinished, and on a whim, he decided to hold a state banquet to entertain the envoys of the two countries. At the banquet, the ministers who accompanied the banquet sat on the left, and the envoys who paid tribute sat on the right. The head is naturally His Majesty the Emperor. Now The envoys from the two countries are here. Who will sit in the front? Who will sit in the back? It is a matter of state affairs, and foreigners also care about state affairs.

Standing in front of the banquet, Mitsuo Shimadzu and He Tianyang looked at each other, their eyes intertwined, and a string of fireworks suddenly exploded...!~!
