Chapter 646 Examination Room

Dachang's on-duty time is very loose. Each department has two shifts, one shift is from Chenshi to noon, and the second shift is from noon to Shenshi.

It spans three hours, but there are only two and a half hours in total. This is a relatively busy department. If it is not so busy, there are only two hours a day.

For example, the Ministry of Rites is the most leisurely on weekdays, followed by the Ministry of War, the busiest are the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Industry is on the way to dispatch all year round.

The most mysterious thing is the criminal department. People in this department are cold and don't like to be with the other five departments, let alone other departments.

The people in the punishment department are also the most difficult to find a wife. It is said that their hands are all stained with blood, and they are not much cleaner than the executioners at Caishikou.

When little ladies hear such words, how dare they marry?

After the people from different ministries are dispatched, they go to different places. Some will go home, and some will stroll in the imperial city. The imperial city is very large, and there are many teaching workshops.

It is said that there was a brothel in the past, but after many indecent things happened, it was abolished by the Queen Mother.

Now the Jiaofangsi in the imperial city are all engaged in serious business. They listen to ditties and play the piano, or find someone to play chess, and show calligraphy or painting, which is extremely elegant.

Some will take advantage of these times to do small businesses permitted by the law.

Of course, there are also people who are as diligent as Emperor Minghua, who have to do everything by himself, even if the people below have already read it, he has to read it again, and he is so busy every day that he does not touch the ground.

Therefore, Emperor Ming Hua and the cabinet ministers soaked in the main hall for discussion all the year round.

"So, what does this have to do with our Astrology Department?" There was a relatively spacious gazebo in the small royal garden, with two wooden tables, and Ayu sat at the wooden table, eating the pastries prepared for her by Tangyuan.

Unexpectedly, in just a few hours, while I was still reading books in the Department of Astrology, Tangyuan had already figured out the situation of several nearby halls.

I met more than 10 people and heard a lot of news. The above ones were all told by Tangyuan.

Ayu opened his eyes and listened carefully while eating the pastry, admiring the glutinous rice **** in his heart.

Ayu's on-duty hours are from Chenshi to noon, so that it is convenient for her to go home in case it gets dark.

But when she just arrived, she didn't go off duty at the end of the hour, but stayed until the end of the hour.

Because the collection of books in the bookstore is really rich, Ayu discovered some interesting ones, some of which are really related to divination, but most of them have many obvious mistakes and omissions, so Ayu just read them as essays.

Tangyuan handed Ayu a pot of water, lowered her voice and said, "Mr. Xiang, there is a lot of knowledge here! Just like the small kitchen I went to, in fact, the top official is the food workshop, and the food workshop is under the jurisdiction of the queen. There is also the Ministry of Rites assisting, the relationship is complicated."

It is the cakes that Ayu is eating right now, which is also particular about which ones can be eaten, which tricks can’t be done, and which foods should be taboo.

Fortunately, Tangyuan is very good at dealing with different people, especially those who are of the highest rank and those who work in the bottom. As long as you can figure out their intentions, it is easy for them to tell the truth.

"I've heard that the relationship between the astrology department and the small kitchen is not very good. Their daily meals here are poor." Tang Yuan said with lingering fear, "In the future, we will still pick vegetables in the vegetable garden by ourselves, and I will go back to our house. If the cooks learn more, the township will not have to suffer."

Ayu smiled and rolled her eyes: "Sister Tangyuan, without you, I wouldn't know all of this. I've been in the imperial city for a long time, are you hungry too? Come on, let's finish eating them and go back to eat early .”

As he spoke, Ayu patted off the residue on his hands, twisted a pastry with a handkerchief, and stuffed it into the mouth of the glutinous rice balls.

After taking a bite of the glutinous rice balls, she also smirked.

While the two were talking, they suddenly heard loud noises not far away, as if many people were talking.

"What's over there?" Ayu asked with a slight glance at his face.

"That is the direction of Guozijian, but they usually don't take this way to go to Guozijian. It should be during the imperial examination period, another road is temporarily closed, they can only go this way first."

Hearing about Guozijian, Ayu thought of his brothers who were taking scientific examinations.

I don’t know how everyone did in the exam.

Second Uncle Wang Chuangui was originally a Juren, and it was his first time. They were not very worried about him.

Qin Huai himself is knowledgeable enough, smart, and not rigid, and never pedantic when solving problems, so many teachers are very optimistic about him.

As for the rest, Wang Erlang and Wang Sanlang passed the Juren examination, Shiro and Qilang failed the ranking, and Wang Wulang and Wang Liulang are still only scholars.

Erlang and Saburo don't know how they did in the exam.

"I hope everyone can do well in the exam."

【Bao, do you want me to help you see them? 】

Ayu was a little moved.

Ayu is now in the imperial city, so Tuanzi doesn't need to make any effort to find out some news.

“Just to see if they did well on the test.”

Since you have this ability, take a look and feel at ease.

【Uh-huh. 】

Duanzi originally just took a casual look, but saw a remarkable scene.

【Hey, someone is cheating and trying to frame your fiance! 】

"What?!" Ayu stood up, so surprised that the pastry fell off.

In Dachang, cheating in the examination room is a serious crime, especially in the Jinshi examination room, it is serious to ransack your home and lose your head!

Tangyuan is unknown, so: "Xiangjun, what's wrong?"
