It is normal for officials to be summoned again, but most of the people who are summoned again are foreign officials above the censorship. Some officials in the border areas will even be summoned five or six times before taking office. When they learned that the emperor not only asked Han Si to continue to hand in the sign tomorrow, but also gave a "honest, available" comment, Huang Zhongyin and Ji Yunfei, who had been waiting for the news for the morning, were very happy. Ao Cexian even said that Han Sisheng was envious and was envious.

It was precisely because Han Si was going to meet again tomorrow that after lunch, they sat around the Left Flower Hall, racked their brains to figure out the holy intentions, and wondered what the emperor would ask tomorrow, and how Han Si would report it. With so many fellow villagers helping to give advice, Han Xiufeng was very grateful and truly understood what it means to be an official in the court.

At the same time, Sichuan fellow villagers such as Wen Zhanggui who were doing business in Beijing were busy helping Datou and Cuihua to arrange their marriage.

Datou is now a sixth-rank master, and the Minister of Works Peng Yunzhang has already spoken that he and Han Si will be able to do a serious job after he takes office. As marriage is a matter of equality, Ao Tongchen actually took the initiative to recognize Cuihua as his sister, and asked Cuihua and Ren Yu to move their house first, and then Datou will go to his house to marry him, so the Ao family is also busy with lights and decorating.

Looking at the boxes of dowry brought from Shanghai and the ones purchased in Beijing these two days, and looking back at the brand new wedding dress and phoenix crown and robe, Cuihua felt like she was dreaming, sitting in front of the dressing table stupidly a little at a loss.

Ren Yuer sent two Jinshi ladies from the Ao family out of the door, walked to her and smiled, "Cuihua, what are you thinking? Tomorrow is your happy day, you should be happy."

"I... I miss my dad, miss my mom," Cuihua burst into tears, and she raised her head and said with a sob: "It would be great if my dad and my dad were here. If they knew that I recognized a Hanlin master brother, I would be great if I could see me marrying Datou."

Ren Yuer thought to herself that your parents had sold you for a thousand taels of silver. You were still thinking of them, but she still comforted her: "The capital is so far from Hai'an, how did you let them come? Besides, they have never gone far away, and it seems that they have never even been to Taizhou."

"I know, I just miss them..."

"Otherwise, I will write a letter to your family, telling your parents that you are now the elder sister of Mr. Hanlin. Mr. Hanlin and Mrs. Hanlin are good to you, and the fourth brother is good to you, and the big head is better to you, so that your parents can rest assured." Ren Yuer thought for a while and said, "If your parents know these, they will definitely be happy for you."

"It's natural to write a letter, but even if you write it for me, who can I ask for to bring it back?"

"Look for Rishengchang. Rishengchang has a semicolon in Taizhou, but also a semicolon in the capital."

"How much does it cost to send a message to Rishengchang?"

"I don't know this, but even if you spend some money, it's worth it, otherwise there would be no letter from your family."

Compared to Ren Yuer, Cuihua can be regarded as a rich woman. Not only did she save more than twenty taels of private money, but her big money is now all with her. But she has suffered hardships and knows that it is not easy to save some money. After hesitating for a while, she muttered: "I have to discuss such a big deal with Big Tiger."

"Just sending a letter to your family, what a big deal." Ren Yuer was ridiculous and sat down and said, "You miss your parents, I miss my third aunt a little, I don't know how she is doing now. Otherwise, I will write one for you, and I will write one for myself, and I will send it back in two days after writing it."

"Send two letters, just give one letter money?" Cuihua asked subconsciously.

"Well, put it in an envelope, who knows how many letters there are?"

"We each have half of the money for sending the letter. Don't tell the Fourth Brother about this. Fourth Brother is so nice to me and Datou. Datou and I can't take advantage of the Fourth Brother anymore."

"Okay, listen to you."

They were whispering in the room. The dowry girl Lianhua, who was directly opposite the room, was making a girl, and muttered to Ao Tongchen's wife Ao Xu and Ao Cexian's wife Ao Ding, "That Cuihua is not only illiterate, but also clumsy. The third master doesn't know what he thinks. Not only do he recognize her as his pampered sister, he also helps with the dowry. He is not afraid of jokes when it is spread!"

The Ao family is a true scholarly family. Not only do the Ao family members all study, but they even have to marry a well-educated woman. Although Ao Xu's books are not as many as Ren Yuer, they are also a wise man. He immediately glared at her: "What are you talking nonsense? The master recognizes Cuihua as his sister, as a pampered sister, and he is not allowed to gossip."

"But……"

"Don't let it go," Ao Cexian's wife Ao Ding put down the needle and thread and explained with a smile: "Lianhua, the third master recognizes Cuihua as his sister, which is not only to help Mr. Han and President Yuan Qian to save face, but also to help our Ao family repay their kindness."

"What kind of kindness do you want to repay?" Lianhua asked subconsciously.

"Mr. Han has great kindness to our Ao family. If it weren't for Mr. Han's help, how could the old man's portrait and tablet be offered to the village sacred temple? You have never been to the guild hall, you will know that you have been there."

"Is there a portrait of my old man in the guild hall?"

"Well, the guild hall of the guild has a total of more than a dozen portraits of the ancestors, including our old man. If you can enter the guild hall, not only will you enjoy the spring and autumn worship forever, but the juren who come to Beijing to take the exam and the civil and military officials who are candidates to come to Beijing also have to go to worship. Think about it, how much face is this!"

"I really don't know if you don't say it."

"Now that I know, I can't gossip anymore," Ao Ding smiled and continued, "What's more, Sister Cuihua is about to marry Mr. Yuan Qian, and she will be the official wife immediately. It's not a big deal to get married to each other, but we have taken advantage of them."

"What advantage can we take on her? I have seen her man, she is just a melon baby!"

"Here we are here again, what did you tell you just now?"

Ao Xu glared at her and thought about it and explained: "Mr. Yuan Qian is not at all, but... it's just a little... it's a bit slow. Although he is just a sixth-rank military officer, Mr. Han is a civil servant, and Mr. Han regards him as his younger brother. You know Liu Juren in Jiangbei Hall. In order to make friends with Mr. Han, they promised all their sisters to Mr. Han's brother-in-law. Our family just made a favor. Do you think this advantage is a big deal?"

Lianhua realized that it was to make friends with Mr. Han, so she was silent for a moment and couldn't help asking: "The third master is a Hanlin official, the fifth master is a Shujishi of the Hanlin Academy, and sooner or later, and the old master, our Ao family has three Jinshis! Anyway, I don't think we have taken advantage of Mr. Han."

"What do you know? The master is a Hanlin official, but the master's current official position is not as good as Mr. Han, and his rank is not as good as Mr. Han. What's more, Mr. Han not only has a vast friendship, but also has a strong family. The third and fifth masters may ask Mr. Han to support him one day."

Ao Ding took the opportunity to interject: "Mr. Han can be the acting Tongzhi on the south bank of Yongding River, a co-organizer of the Grand Secretary, and recommended by Mr. Peng! Mr. Peng is now walking in the Military Affairs Office, and is appointed as the Grand Secretary of the Palace. It is a matter of time before he enters the cabinet and becomes the prime minister!"

"My mother, so Mr. Han has a bright future!"

"So you can't gossip anymore in the future."

"I know, I will never dare to do it again."

...

Han Xiufeng doesn't have to worry about the marriage between Datou and Cuihua, he just needs to prepare for the second meeting.

The next morning, I rushed to the Old Summer Palace again. I thought I would be led by a minister who was as powerful as yesterday, but I didn't expect that I would wait for the ministers and officers of the Ministry of Personnel, but instead waited for the Minister of War and five military officers.

The Ministry of War did not take care of the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel, and Han Xiufeng had no choice but to see the Minister of War and the Office of the Ministry of War leading the five military officers in, he could only grit his teeth and walk to the palace gate to hand over the sign. The eunuch in the memorial office took the sign and looked at it, took the money he had stuffed and asked him to wait outside. Unexpectedly, this time was at noon!

When Han Xiufeng stood with his legs numb and hungry, the eunuch came out to announce his visit.

Just like yesterday, I was still in the East Warm Pavilion of Qinzheng Hall.

The emperor had obviously just used imperial meals and was much better than yesterday. After he finished bowing, he asked the eunuch to bring a low-level case, and asked the eunuch to bring paper and pen and a copy of the "Book of Rites" engraved in the fourth year of Qianlong's Emperor's Wuying Palace to be copied on the spot.

Yesterday, I pondered the holy wishes with my fellow villagers at the guild hall for a while, but not only did I not expect that the emperor would summon him alone, but also asked him to do this like the palace examination. Han Xiufeng calmed down, rolled up his sleeves, opened the "Book of Rites", picked up the pen, and knelt in front of the wooden kang and copied it carefully.

What I didn't expect was that as soon as I copied it to the third page, the emperor suddenly said, "The handwriting is quite neat."

Han Xiufeng reacted and hurriedly said, "I have studied books, but I don't read much, and I don't understand the profound meaning."

In recent years, it was either natural disasters or **. The court opened a large-scale donation for disaster relief and fundraising, so that some people who were ignorant of the people turned into officials of the court. Xianfeng thought that the person in front of him could not recognize a few words, but he did not expect that he not only knew how to read, but his writing was pretty good. He pondered: "No need to copy it anymore. This "Book of Rites" is rewarded to you. If you don't understand, please ask a teacher to teach and study it carefully."

"I thank the emperor for his kindness and reward. I will study hard after I go back."

"Do you know what errands will do after you take office?"

"I know a little. I met Lord Peng the day I returned to Beijing. Lord Peng said that I don't have to worry about anything else after I take office. I just need to practice troops wholeheartedly and protect the capital."

"Where did the soldiers come from?" Xianfeng asked afterwards.

"The existing soldiers in the Heying camp can be used, and they cannot be dismissed from all the troops. They will recruit honest and reliable young and strong trainers again."

"How long does it take to practice?"
