During the wedding period, Chen Yichen had fallen into a gentle place and had experienced what it means to "the spring night is short and the day is high, and the king will not go to court early from now on."

However, the days of "degenerate" were not happy for too long. Soon Chen Yichen received an order from the palace to ask him to go to Dongge to study.

Although the Dong Pavilion ranked last among the four halls and two pavilions of the Ming Dynasty, it was the starting point for many powerful cabinet ministers. Entering the Dong Pavilion to study and practice means being trained as a reserve cabinet minister and will be of great use in the future.

Since the court trained and reserved "cadres", it was naturally impossible to reserve one person. As many as ten people went to Dongge with Chen Yichen to study, including Liu Yan, the top scholar in the Renxu class in the seventh year of Zhengtong.

From this point of view, we can also see that Chen Yichen's saint is in full swing. It has been three years since the last palace examination, and the top scholar has obtained the opportunity to enter the East Pavilion for training.

Chen Yichen rose to prominence, and directly smeared the three-year qualification gap. It is no wonder that the honors and ministers at the wedding banquet felt incredible after hearing the imperial edict. It was indeed a bit big.

Early in the morning on May 28, Chen Yichen ate two bites of breakfast made by Chen Qingtong, and hurried to the East Pavilion next to Zuoshun Gate, Forbidden City.

After all, it was the first time I went to Dongge to report the "value" and now I am in the limelight. If I am late, it would be a bad impression of being arrogant.

What Chen Yichen didn't expect was that he thought it was too early enough, but when he arrived in front of the palace gate of Dongge, he happened to see nine people waiting for him, so he became the last one to arrive.

"well……"

Seeing this scene, Chen Yichen sighed helplessly.

When I was taking the imperial examination, the group of people of the same year arrived earlier than the other in each exam.

Many times, Chen Yichen couldn't help but wonder if these goods were shooting floors in front of the Gongyuan gate at night and never went back?

As a result, now that he has become an official, he can still encounter such similar situations. Although he is not late and comes on time, he always has the illusion of being late!

"Seniors, I am late for Chen Yichen."

Since the unspoken rule of "being a Hanlin is worse than a cabinet", the title of Grand Secretary of the Fourth Hall and Second Pavilion has basically been won by Hanlin officials.

Therefore, the newcomers who can be selected to join Dongge to study today are all Hanlin officials, so naturally they have to follow the rules of Hanlin Academy.

Compared with the group of Jinshi, who had a low qualification in the Hanlin Academy's office, today, except for Liu Yan, the top scholar, the rest of the people today are basically Jinshi who have not been in the imperial examination for four years, or even in the previous sessions.

They have been in the officialdom for many years and have long been smoothed out by the officialdom, so they are naturally not so cynical.

When they saw Chen Yichen, the "popular man", they bowed and said, "Shen Zhongyun, I have long admired the name."

Many people even sighed when they saw Chen Yichen's young face. The Yangtze River pushed the old waves and replaced the old waves. Before they could show their strength in their careers, they were about to face the challenge of rising stars.

The last top scorer Liu Yan was particularly touched. He sighed to Chen Yichen: "Chen Xiu is really a young talent. In comparison, we are already in the future."

Although Liu Yan was the top scorer in the Renxu class in the seventh year of Zhengtong, and in theory, he was one class higher than Chen Yichen, he was a latecomer and was the top scorer in high school at the age of 49.

Compared with a young man like Chen Yichen, Liu Yan's hair and hair are all white and old. What's even more outrageous is that his official title is still in the sixth rank of Hanlin composer, while Chen Yichen is now the sixth rank of Zhan Shifu Youchunfang Zhongyun.

If the Hanlin Academy had not had the rule that the first person to enter the museum was called a senior, Liu Yan would have to bow and call himself a senior when he saw Chen Yichen today.

"Senior Liu is in the prime of Spring and Autumn Period, why did he say this? Compared to the younger generation, he is a matter of minority and needs to learn more from all the seniors."

Chen Yichen's words surprised these Hanlin seniors, and Liu Yan couldn't help but smile appeared on his face.

You should know that on the day of joining the company, Chen Yichen was suppressing people with an "official" and he was all focused on squatting in the documentary hall to compile books, and he never showed up like an invisible person.

These Hanlin seniors usually work in different departments and have never met Chen Yichen. Their impressions and understandings of him are basically understood from the juniors in the department, which is nothing more than slandering such as being arrogant and being disrespectful.

I thought Chen Yichen was late, which just confirmed the pride and arrogance of this boy. However, I didn't expect that his behavior and speech were so humble and respectful, which was very different from the image circulated in the Hanlin Academy.

Is this the reason for spreading rumors or is it better for this kid to cover it up?

However, no matter what factors are, when Liu Yan said this, what he cared about the most was his age, and the "Spring and Autumn Festival" could be called a mistake.

With a good start to communicate, Chen Yichen's ability to dance with his long sleeves and good dance was enjoyable, and the subsequent dialogue was a joyful one.

While we were having a good time, an official from the East Pavilion came to everyone and saluted: "All the Jade Hall officials, please follow the young one into the pavilion."

He is worthy of being able to enter the East Pavilion to be an official, and his emotional intelligence is indeed superior. This sentence "entering the Pavilion" contains the wonder of a pun.

Sure enough, after hearing this, everyone except Chen Yichen suddenly felt excited. He went to the East Pavilion to study and practice, so that he could one day enter the cabinet?

A real man should be a good man in the world and achieve fame and fortune to comfort his life!

The group stepped into the East Pavilion under the leadership of the official, and as soon as they entered, they saw an official in his fifties wearing a robe sitting on the upper seat.

In addition to the name of a palace, the East Pavilion has another name, called the Cabinet Imperial House.

The meaning of the edict on the paper of the edict is to draft and copy the emperor's edict. But in fact, the work content of the Dongge also includes translating edicts and foreign documents, unveiling and postings, commendation and commending merits of the Ministry of War, etc.

Even if the elders in Wenyuan Pavilion are too busy, they will send some unimportant memorials to practice hand-to-hand calligraphy for the group of "interns" who are studying in Dongge.

This is why the rewards of Dongge's academic experience are no less than promotion in the eyes of everyone. The reason is that this internship experience is the basis for becoming an important official in the court in the future. Even if you don't have so many positions to enter the cabinet in the end, you have to be reused by six departments.

Since it is the cabinet imperial edict room, then the officials who can sit in the head of the East Pavilion and are also wearing red robes are undoubtedly members of the cabinet.

According to the practice of meeting interns in the East Pavilion in previous years, the cabinet master who finally entered the cabinet to make edicts came forward. The cabinet team, who had been the most experienced in the ten years, was the Minister of Works and the Lecturer of the Ministry of Works, who had just entered the cabinet this year.

So Chen Yichen and others stood together and saluted Gao Gu and said, "Good official to see Gao Zhongtang."

The name of Gao Gu is also based on the Hanlin Academy's rule that "the person who enters the cabinet will be called the central hall." If it were a normal non-Hanlin official, he would have to call Gao Gu the cabinet master.

Looking at the salutes in front of everyone, Gao Gu nodded and said, "Today, seeing you and others makes me think of the scene where I entered the cabinet some time ago. I was so energetic and excited."

Gao Gu has only been in the cabinet for a few months, so he can naturally empathize with Chen Yichen and others' state of mind.

However, after saying this, Gao Gu warned: "You can understand your mood, but remember that the palace is a key place in the court and cannot tolerate any carelessness, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."

"I hope that in the future, you will do your duty and achieve the best, and live up to the great grace of Your Majesty."

Gao Gu's words were like a basin of cold water, which made the interns who were originally a little restless in the East Pavilion calm down instantly.

Indeed, there is no difference in office work in places like Dongge. It is like an imperial edict. If you write a wrong word to change the meaning, it is possible to behead the head and confiscate the house.

The greater the power, the greater the responsibility. Only in the future can one move on to a steady course.

"The lower officials follow the teachings of the central hall."

After giving some advice, Gao Gu encouraged him again and used all the carrot sticks. In just a few words, the methods of senior officials showed their skills.

After paying homage to Gao Gu, Chen Yichen and others bowed and left the main hall and were taken to the veranda room on both sides by the officers.

The so-called veranda room is the corridor room and veranda room around the high hall. In the future, Chen Yichen, the group of Hanlin officials who entered the East Pavilion and studied in the veranda room must work and be on duty.

Compared with the separate desks in the Hanlin Academy’s Office, the Dongge Wing Room can be said to be upgraded to an independent office. Each room is about ten square meters, with tables, chairs, bookshelfs, and even a small bed, which has a qualitative improvement in the treatment.

The corridor assigned by Chen Yichen is located in the first room on the right side of the main hall of the East Pavilion, and the one on the left is given to Liu Yan. Although Chen Yichen is a late junior, the top scorer is the top scorer after all, and his status is naturally greater than that of other Hanlin officials.

When he came to the case, Chen Yichen was about to lie down and relax his muscles, but a green robe official walked in outside the door, which scared him so much that he immediately sat upright.

I saw the visitor bowing and bowing and saying, "The lower official is Zhao Ranyuan, the clan of the Secretariat, to pay homage to Chen Xiu."

"Oh, what's wrong with you, Zhao Zhongshu?"

"The lower official is the assistant assigned to Chen Xiuke. If there is any order, please give me any instructions."

Hearing this, Chen Yichen understood, just like the Hanlin Academy assigned an officer like Cao Xuan to be an assistant, Dongge arranged an assistant to the Central Secretariat.

However, unlike the officials, the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat has a seventh-rank official, so naturally it is not as inferior as the officials.

"I didn't give any instructions, I just wanted to ask Zhao Zhongshu, what is the next one to do?"

The office was empty, not even a book that was pretending. Chen Yichen could not be shameless. He lay on the small bed on the first day of his employment in Dongge, right?

If the passers-by ministers see it, the academic master's character created by the three-year master will collapse?

"Reporting to the editor Chen, there is nothing important to join the new job today."

Is there nothing to do?

Hearing this, Chen Yichen felt a little disappointed.

After all, today is in a sense that he has entered the power center of the Ming Dynasty. Even if he doesn’t have much power to point fingers, he can still feel a sense of participation in military and national affairs.

But I had nothing to do. Do I have to sit for one day and wait for get off work?

After thinking for a while, Chen Yichen said, "Zhao Zhongshu, I just happened to have something not finished. I wonder if I can help you run away?"

"It's okay to write Chen Xiu, but he said it."

"I also asked Zhao Zhongshu to go to the Hanlin Academy's Dichou Hall to find an official named Cao Xuan. He said that this official is now on duty in Dong Pavilion and asked him to bring the information of "Huanyu Tongzhi" and the draft."

"Is this planning for Chen Xiushu to continue to compile the "Huanyu Tongzhi"?"

Zhao Ranyuan was a little surprised when he heard Chen Yichen's words.

You should know that transferring from Hanlin Academy to Dong Pavilion for further study is almost equivalent to changing a department, so you can naturally let go of your previous work.

I am really responsible and I can plan to have a beginning and an end, but it depends on what kind of job it is.

The book "Huanyu Tongzhi" is not only a famous Tiankeng in the Hanlin Academy, but even the clerks in the palace are well-known. After all, in the history of the Ming Dynasty, there were not many cases of Hanlin Academy being dismissed from office and exile due to book revisions.

Zhao Ranyuan could not imagine that Chen Yichen, the top scholar who was ranked third in the first place, would be arranged to fill in the pit of "Huanyu Tongzhi".

The question is that it’s fine if it fills in, but now he can get out of the sea of ​​suffering with justification. He is still planning to continue jumping in?

"Yes, I have nothing to do anyway, so I will continue to compile books."

Chen Yichen has now regarded writing books as a job to hone his mind, which is similar to other people's choice to practice calligraphy and painting.

Moreover, in his heart, he did not think that the geographical genre of "Huanyu Tongzhi" is a pit. On the contrary, the importance of this type of engineering books is far beyond the "sages of sages" that interpret the Four Books and Five Classics.

If I leave now, the book "Huanyu Tongzhi" will at least have to wait until the next new Kehanlin enters the museum before someone will take over.

And without the knowledge reserves beyond the times, the quality of the book "Huanyu Tongzhi" is difficult to guarantee, and Chen Yichen cannot give up.
