After the sacrifice to heaven, there were several consecutive heavy rains.
The drought in the capital has been significantly alleviated.
The water level in the riverbed rose, allowing water transportation to flow smoothly.
The strange thing is that it was not just raining in Beijing. In the disaster area, which had not seen a drop of rain for two consecutive years, a torrential rain that lasted for three days followed just half a month after the ceremony.
I heard that when it rained, thousands of people in the disaster area took to the streets to celebrate.
They knelt on the ground and shouted devoutly, "Long live the emperor!"
The people spontaneously attributed the credit for the rain to Emperor Wende.
It is believed that Emperor Wende offered sacrifices to heaven, which led to the rain.
It’s amazing!
All the tricks that the rebels played in the disaster area, all the slanders against the court and Emperor Wende, and a year's hard work were not as good as a rain with the color of a "miracle".
Niu Dafa, the junior supervisor of the Imperial Observatory, has become very successful!
"Hahaha……"
When the news reached the capital, Emperor Wende burst into laughter.
I feel an unprecedented sense of relief.
The posthumous son of Prince Qing, the imperial edict of succession, and the imperial seal were all vulnerable under the will of God.
"Summon Shaoqing Ren to the audience! No, I want to issue an imperial decree to appoint Shaoqian Ren as the Director of the Imperial Observatory. Everyone in the Imperial Observatory will obey his orders!"
As a result, Ren, who had been in office as the Junior Supervisor of the Imperial Observatory for less than two months, was promoted to the Director of the Imperial Observatory in a blink of an eye, becoming the undisputed head of the Imperial Observatory.
Those old men in the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, who have spent their entire lives studying celestial phenomena, can only retire in disgrace.
If you are not as skilled as others, you can only admit defeat.
Today's young people are really amazing!
As a result, the elderly have no jobs.
The newly appointed Ren Jianzheng came to the palace, played chess with Emperor Wende, and explained the astronomical phenomena.
This lecture lasted two hours.
All the court officials who requested an audience were turned away by Chang En.
Now, Ren Jianzheng is the most trusted court official of Emperor Wende.
The most popular thing at the moment!
…
The streets of the capital were so crowded that carriages could only move slowly and had to worry about collisions.
In recent years, the population of the capital has increased, and the number of traveling merchants has also increased.
No one knows where these extra people came from.
The Xiuyiwei are the most clear about this issue.
Half of the extra people were natives of the capital.
In the past, those homebodies disliked the dirty and smelly roads and were reluctant to go out. They preferred to stay at home, claiming to cultivate their moral character.
When the roads in Beijing were renovated and paved with cement, and cleaners were on hand to sweep the streets to ensure hygiene, all the otakus came out in droves, spending the whole day calling their friends, playing with cats and dogs, and causing trouble.
This brought a lot of work pressure to the Xiuyiwei.
The other half are ordinary people who come to the capital from all over the region to make a living.
There are also many migrant workers from other places coming to Beijing to work.
Anyway, the population of the capital is increasing year by year.
Since there was no room for him in the capital, he rented a house in Xinmin County outside the city.
If you can’t afford to rent the second phase, just rent the first phase.
The first phase was built specifically for refugees, with densely packed and small houses.
The advantage is that although it is small, it has all the necessary functions.
The rent is half cheaper than the second phase.
In fact, even if these ordinary people can afford the rent for the second phase, the landlord of the second phase is not willing to rent to them.
The landlord of the second phase would rather rent the house to scholars at a discount of a few dozen cents per month.
As long as there is one scholar living in a house, there will soon be two, three... scholars renting rooms in the house. Before long, all the rooms will be filled with scholars.
Scholars also value sticking together.
If the house is rented to migrant workers, scholars will not come.
It’s too noisy and there’s no atmosphere for studying.
As a result, the landlords of the second phase tacitly refused to accept migrant workers.
The excuse is: fear of ruining the literary spirit of scholars.
If migrant workers come to Phase II to rent a house, the landlords will all say: No rooms available!
So, Phase 1 and Phase 2, although separated by only a street and two walls, are clearly separated.
People in the first phase will not go to the second phase, and people in the second phase will never go to the first phase.
When there are too many people on the streets, traffic accidents are more likely to happen.
No, the two carriages collided with each other.
The newly appointed Director of the Imperial Observatory, Ren Jian, was a young man with a strong curiosity and lacked the steadiness of middle-aged officials.
When the carriage crashed, he opened the window and stuck his head out to watch curiously.
The windows of another carriage were also opened.
"My dear friend, I am very sorry. My carriage hit yours. If there is any damage, I am willing to compensate you accordingly."
Sanyuan Gong Yang Yuanqing has a kind smile and a gentle temperament, giving people the feeling of being a great man.
As soon as Ren Jianzheng saw him, he took a liking to Sanyuan Gong Yang Yuanqing.
"You are very polite, old sir. My carriage should not be damaged, so there is no need for compensation."
Sanyuan Gong Yang Yuanqing smiled kindly, "How could that be so embarrassing? How about I buy you a drink as an apology?"
"I feel so embarrassed." Ren Jianzheng scratched his head, feeling a little shy.
Sanyuan Gong Yang Yuanqing looked at the other party happily. He was still a fresh young man who had not been corrupted by officialdom.
very nice!
In Madam Zhao's words, he is a young and handsome guy.
The term "fresh meat" is really good.
When revising the dictionary, this word should be included.
As for the old bacon, forget it!
Sanyuan Gong is old at heart, but he will never admit that he is an old man.
He should be considered an elder among the young handsome guys.
Sanyuan Gong stroked his beard, very proud of his understanding of age.
If Gu Jiu were here, he would definitely say: Painting an old cucumber green is very bad!
Ren Jianzheng is just a young and handsome man, how can he be a match for the experienced and wise Sanyuan Gong.
In no time, he was conquered by Sanyuan Gong, and followed him to the teahouse to drink tea and chat.
From the Four Books and Five Classics to astronomy and geography, there is no topic that San Yuan Gong cannot cover.
The young and fresh Ren Jianzheng was impressed by Sanyuan Gong's knowledge and demeanor. If he had not already become a disciple, he would have wanted to become Sanyuan Gong's disciple and study under him.
It was not until this time that Sanyuan Gong Yang Yuanqing revealed his identity.
"I am Yang Yuanqing, currently teaching at Shanhe Academy."
Ren Jianzheng opened his mouth and exclaimed, "Is this the legendary Sanyuan Gong?"
Sanyuan Gong Yang Yuanqing stroked his beard and said, "I am the legendary Sanyuan Gong, absolutely the real one. You can just call me Sir, just like my students. There is no need to call me Old Master."
Sanyuan Gong definitely refuses to accept his old age!
Ren Jianzheng's face flushed with excitement. "This, this, this, how can this be so embarrassing?"
"My friend, there is no need to be polite with me."
Ren Jianzheng excitedly shouted: "Junior greets the sir!"
"You're so polite, young man! You're so knowledgeable at such a young age, that's amazing!"
"Sir, you are so kind! I have only read a few more books than others."
Yang Yuanqing, the Three Yuan Master, laughed cheerfully. He hadn't merely read more books than the others; he was also gifted with a natural talent, able to grasp everything instantly.
This kid is a true genius.
If he took part in the imperial examination, he would definitely be on the list of successful candidates, and getting the top three or six places would be a piece of cake.
Talented people emerge in every generation!
As smart as Yang Ji was, he could only sigh helplessly and admit defeat in front of Renqiu.
Can't compare!
By the way, Ren Jianzheng’s real name is Renqiu, and he came down from the mountain.
Which mountain?
He just smiled and revealed nothing.
The silly boy also has a shrewd side. Once the issue of identity is involved, he refuses to say a word.
Sanyuan Gong Yang Yuanqing did not mind, but instead warmly invited him to visit Shanhe Academy.
"Is it okay?" Renqiu was very excited.
After coming to the capital, I often heard people mention Shanhe Academy.
I am particularly looking forward to the monthly streaking at Shanhe Academy.
I just regret that my identity restricts me from participating in person.
However, he had imagined that on the day of his naked streak, he would cover his head and no one would recognize him.
Haha, the young Renqiu smiled foolishly at the thought of being able to participate in streaking in person.
When he came to his senses, he had already arrived at the gate of Shanhe Academy.
"It's so huge! So majestic!"
"Young friend Ren, please follow me. I will show you around the academy."
"Thank you for your kindness, sir!"
"My friend's knowledge is astonishing, and I love him dearly!"
The words of deep love made Renqiu's eyes wet with emotion, "Sir, you are so talented, many of my juniors are not as good as you."
Sanyuan Gong Yang Yuanqing laughed heartily, "When you live to be my age, you will be more talented and learned than me."
"This is my wish!"
Young people are really not polite at all!
But Sanyuan Gong was very happy.
Who doesn't love gifted students?
At first sight, Renqiu fell in love with Shanhe Academy.
"I only regret that the younger generation cannot come to the academy to study!"
He was an official appointed by the imperial court, so of course he could not come to the academy to study.
"Young friend, don't be upset! You can't come to the academy to study, but you can come to teach. You have unique knowledge of astronomy, and the academy will be very happy to hire you as a teacher."
"This... I'm afraid I can only disappoint you, sir."
"Is it because of identity restrictions?"
"Exactly! Please forgive me, sir."
Sanyuan Gong said with a smile, "It's a pity that you can't teach at the academy due to your status. So, could you come to the academy occasionally to give lectures to the students? We can use this as a testament to each other's success."
"May I?"
"As long as you agree, of course!"
"I, I'll go back and ask. If it's okay, I'll come to the academy often to visit you, sir."
"I couldn't ask for more."
After seeing off the excited Renqiu, Sanyuan Gong was very pleased.
He didn't expect that today's "car crash encounter" would have such a good effect.
