Main text Chapter 586: Hanlin observes people, thinking about the spirit in the new residence [First
The Hanlin Academy is not too big or too small. From a distance, you can feel the extraordinary atmosphere. Literary thoughts flow like flowing water, wandering around the academy, pure and quiet.
"What a place where literary thoughts gather. I didn't expect that there would be such pure literary thoughts in the officialdom. However, I have been in contact with officials in the officialdom these days. I have noticed that wherever there are officials and power, there must be turbid air. Why is the Hanlin Academy so quiet inside and outside? There are many officials serving there. Are they all saints who are not stained by dust?"
With doubts, Qiu Yan followed the guide and stepped into the door with Ye Yun and Li Le. The moment he stepped on the ground, a clear air surged up from the ground, entering from the heels and going straight up. In a short while, it nourished his own luck and dispelled some vulgar thoughts, making the luck tree more vibrant and tending to soar into the sky.
"This is a trend of rising straight up to the sky!" With a change of mind, Qiu Yan did not stop the clear air from washing his own luck tree. At the same time, he tasted a little bit of the flavor and recalled some things in the books and folk circulated.
"Dari has two courts, the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council, which divide the prime minister's power. The person sitting in the Political Affairs Hall can be called the prime minister. Since the establishment of the country, except for those who have made great contributions, most of the prime ministers have served in the Hanlin Academy."
Dari has been established for decades, and gradually formed a situation where civil officials govern the military. The highest qualification for literati is Jinshi. There is no prime minister who is not a Jinshi. Among the Jinshi, there are also divisions, divided into three, six, nine, and among them, those who can enter the Hanlin Academy are undoubtedly the best choice.
Standing in the center, being ranked in the Hanlin, you can walk in front of the emperor. Although you have no decision-making power, you sometimes draft tactics, which is equivalent to the secretariat, especially the top three, second and third place, who were respectively awarded the sixth-rank editor and the seventh-rank editor, which are formal establishments. The remaining 24 places for Shujishi are not only unranked, but also need to be assessed from time to time, which is equivalent to an intern, and it will take at least three years to get a rank.
In this way, Qiu Yan and others have saved the promotion of one or two ranks from the beginning. However, in history, there are several prime ministers who are Shujishi. It can be seen that although the starting point is different, they are in the same Hanlin Academy and have many opportunities. After all, they are different from other officials.
As for the remaining Jinshi. Either they are Beijing officials or they have to be sent out. They have to experience the ups and downs of officialdom and struggle for promotion. Those who are sent out will lose the opportunity to build connections in the capital, which is a relatively unfavorable start in the officialdom.
Like today's official appointment, other Jinshi have to wait for arrangements. Qiu Yan and the other two have been brought here in advance to familiarize themselves with the situation of the Hanlin Academy.
As he walked, Qiu Yan finally found a little turbid air in the air, which was diluted very thin, and faintly purified and repelled by a source.
"So that's it."
A thought flashed through his mind, and Qiu Yan raised his hand and pointed to a building in the depths, asking: "What is that building used for?"
The person leading the way was not very old. He looked to be about 10 years old, and he was very lively and witty along the way. After hearing Qiu Yan's question, he did not dare to neglect it. He looked over and immediately answered: "Oh. That building is the Hanlin Academy Library, which houses many classics, including rare copies, and even many manuscripts of the legendary philosophers. It can be said to be the top priority of the academy."
"Library?" Hearing this word, Qiu Yan's heart moved, thinking of the night visit to the Hanlin Academy, but he said casually, "That's a good place, a holy place for scholars like us, I wonder if we can go and take a look?"
The guide looked embarrassed and scratched his head: "The library cannot be entered easily, and I have never been in it, but you are the new champion and the Hanlin editor, I think it will be okay to talk to Yang Shijiang."
"Yang Shijiang?" Qiu Yan's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he asked back.
"Yes, this library is usually guarded by Yang She and Yang Shijiang. They are very strict. It is difficult for others to enter unless it is edited and organized. Now..." The guide was talking, and realized that he had let the cat out of the bag, so he quickly changed the subject.
However, someone did come to greet them from the opposite side.
Seeing that the guide was about to leave, Qiu Yan looked at his face and asked, "I forgot to ask you your name along the way."
"Your Excellency, you don't have to be so polite," the guide waved his hand and said, "My name is Meng Sanyi, and I am not worthy of your name. I work in the Hanlin Academy. If you need me in the future, just call me a humble man." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Qiu Yan did not ask any more questions. A clear voice came from the opposite side--
"The three of you are finally here. You just went to the Ministry of Personnel to register, and then someone came to notify us. We are waiting here." While speaking, a middle-aged man in official uniform slowly walked over, with a handsome appearance and elegant demeanor.
"Greetings, sir." Qiu Yan and the other two recognized Han Bian, a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, as soon as they saw the patch on the man's clothes.
According to the rules, the person in charge of the affairs of the Imperial Academy is the Hanlin Bachelor, a fifth-rank official title, who has been concurrently held by the Minister of Rites in all dynasties. However, the Minister is so busy that this title is just used by the court to show its appreciation for the Imperial Academy. The one who really holds the real power of the Imperial Academy is the Bachelor of the Imperial Academy.
The head of the Imperial Academy personally greeted them. Even if Qiu Yan and others did not understand the market, they knew that this was a grand ceremony and naturally had to return the favor.
After a few simple polite words, Han Bian, the attendant, said: "I'm here to introduce you to everyone. This is Yang She, the attendant lecturer..." As he spoke, a square-faced man in official uniform came over. As he stepped forward, the atmosphere around him suddenly changed.
When Han Bian spoke, everyone was in a good mood. When Yang She came over, he didn't say anything, and the oppressive aura enveloped the surroundings. However, Qiu Yan and others were not ordinary people, so they didn't show any abnormality and remained calm.
In addition to the Hanlin Bachelor, the Hanlin Academy also has positions such as Reader, Lecturer, Compiler, Editor, Reviewer, Five Classics Bachelor, Classics, Bookkeeper, Waiting for the Imperial Edict, etc. The ranks are from the fifth to the eighth rank, and in addition, there are the unranked Shujishi.
This arrangement is actually a miniature power field, which is enough for Qiu Yan to take the first step into the officialdom steadily.
In addition, he naturally remembered the black hand behind the Hanlin Academy.
His eyes fell on Yang She's face. Qiu Yan observed the other party calmly, not missing any details. The turbid air in the Hanlin Academy was expelled and the clear air was filled. If the supernatural power or martial arts were used. It was particularly obvious, and he could only rely on his senses to capture the changes.
However, after watching for a long time, there was no clue.
At this time, Han Bian said again: "The Hanlin Academy is usually idle, but there are some systems and documents to be familiar with. You will come tomorrow. You can follow Yang Shijiang to the library to take a look and get familiar with it."
"Library?" Qiu Yan was a little surprised. He was still thinking about how to get in, but he didn't expect it to be so easy. He looked at Yang She again, and the latter didn't seem strange. Instead, he nodded in agreement.
However, Qiu Yan's keen senses still detected a little change in the other party's breath.
"By the way, after you get the waist card, I will have someone take you to the Ministry of Works to get the house."
When officials in Beijing take office, the court will allocate accommodation in the city. With the official rank of Qiu Yan and others, most of them have a courtyard, which can be regarded as having a place to stay in the capital. However, if they serve as officials in other places in the future, the house will still be taken away.
This is also one of the benefits of officials.
"Thank you, Lord Han, for your concern." Qiu Yan and others thanked again, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
The entire Hanlin Academy also gave people a sense of comfort and peace. It was completely different from the environment Qiu Yan had experienced before.
………………
Just as Qiu Yan and others were looking for Hanlin, An Jin, who had changed into dark clothes, came to the outside of a large courtyard in a corner of the outer city.
On the plaque at the gate of the courtyard, the four characters "Jiuyun Study" were written, and the strokes were ethereal, with a sense of transcendence.
Seeing An Jin, the gatekeeper immediately approached and asked about the purpose of the visit.
"Please tell Mr. Jiuyun that your nephew An Jin is here to visit." An Jin bowed his hands.
The gatekeeper lived in the capital and was well-informed. Seeing that An Jin had an extraordinary demeanor and awe-inspiring momentum, he did not ask much. He asked about his origin and hometown. Knowing that he was a disciple of Dongdu Jiuyuan Academy, he could not help but respect him and hurriedly turned around to report. After a while, he invited An Jin in again.
About a meal time later, two young men sent An Jin out again. The three of them had solemn faces, with a sense of common hatred and hatred.
After bidding farewell to the two, An Jin boarded the carriage, which moved slowly in the city and went to a study. In the evening, he left the city and went south to visit the Dexing Academy. Finally, before it got dark, he arrived at the gate of Taixu Academy.
A servant had been waiting outside the gate. When he saw the carriage coming, he took the initiative to greet it.
As soon as the carriage stopped, An Jin got off and was about to introduce his name, but the servant got ahead of him: "Mr. An, the master asked me to wait for you here."
"Master?" An Jin's face changed slightly, "But Mr. Taixu?"
The servant nodded and said: "It was Mr. Taixu. He said that he knew your purpose, but the gift had been sent to the champion, so it was not good to ask again. He had to wait for the champion to return the gift, so he could not help."
An Jin's face was uncertain, and he sighed at the end: "It is indeed a great scholar who is well-versed in human relations. He didn't give me a chance to speak at all." After speaking, he bowed to the academy and went home.
………………
Two days later, Qiu Yan moved into a three-story courtyard in the east of the city. Hu Qi and Dai Guo were happily cleaning and moving things, while the ginseng baby led a group of strange things flying around in the yard, so happy.
"It's better to be an official. How much money does such a big courtyard in the capital cost? The court gave it as it said!" Dai Guo sighed while working.
Hu Qi immediately frowned and rebuked: "Don't talk nonsense, this courtyard is allocated to the young master for settlement, not given to him!"
"I know it!" Dai Guo subconsciously shrank his neck.
In the room, Qiu Yan looked a little heavy.
"In the past two days, the number of believers has really decreased little by little, and they are mainly concentrated in Jiannan Road. The incense connection is cut off by the starlight, and even Ao Ling can hardly break the obstacle. It will take time to get out. Before that, if we can't find a quick and large amount of incense and divine power to replenish, the body of the god will continue to weaken!"
Just then...
Dong! Dong! Dong!
There was a knock on the door. Qiu Yan tidied his clothes and walked out of the main room. He looked normal and went to open the door himself.
