Saint Immortal Way

() The eyes of Cao Daoyuan and the Confucian teachers who greeted the imperial envoy became eager, staring at the royal uniform in the big wooden box, their eyes glowed green.

The Hanlin Academy of the Great Kuang Dynasty was the most "bloated" administrative institution in the court.In addition to the Hanlin Academy itself in the capital of God, it also includes the Tai Academy in the capital of God, as well as all the academies in Kyushu throughout the dynasty, and its personnel include all Confucian teachers in Kyushu.

The functions of the Imperial Academy also intersect with the Ministry of Officials. They control the establishment of all Confucian teachers, and together with the Ministry of Officials, they have the power to evaluate the merits of Confucian teachers and their promotion. The real power is still very large. In the Holy Dao Dynasty, scholars are respected all over the world, so the institutions that manage scholars will not have less power.

There is no shortage of official robes for Confucian teachers. Great Confucianism, great Confucianism, and even grand masters also have the titles of Shijiao, Shidu, Shijiao, Shidu, and Bachelor of the Imperial Academy.For example, Cao Daoyuan, the head of the academy, is a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, the fourth rank.Lu Yang's teacher, Huang Zongxi, is a Bachelor of Attendant of the Imperial Academy, from the fifth grade, only a little higher than Lu Yang.

It can be seen from this that this gift is truly the mighty grace of the emperor.Lu Yang only wrote one book of "The Way of Alchemy", and he obtained an official position that is hard to be expected by others.

The most outrageous thing is the title of first-class viscount. Under normal circumstances, it is a consensus that no title is given unless it is for the achievements of opening up territories.But this time the emperor actually bestowed a noble title, which shows that in the emperor's heart, the achievement of alchemy is comparable to opening up territories.

A set of first-class viscount uniforms is not available in the entire academy. From the head of the academy to the students with low achievements, it is estimated that except for the princess who is a member of the royal family and has a title, everyone else does not have it. .

"Being able to get a title, let alone a viscount, or a baron, is also a matter of honoring the ancestors! According to the royal code, a viscount can be inherited for three to five generations, and a baron can be inherited for two or three generations!" The Confucian teachers thought to themselves, and they were jealous again. It's joy again.But looking back, imagine how many people will be benefited if Lu Yang can publish the book "Dao of Alchemy" to the world?Thinking about it this way, the title of viscount is not too light!

Cao Daoyuan was already happy in his heart. Lu Yang can get the title of first-class viscount. This is not only the glory of Lu Yang, but also the glory of Bailongtan Academy.With Lu Yang as a living sign, I don't know how many students will come to take the exam in the spring of this year, and whether it will increase by [-]%?

Cao Daoyuan thought in his heart, politely ask the Confucian teachers to receive the imperial envoy and send them to the best pavilion in the academy. No matter how you say it, he will give him a small bribe, and then have a small meal and so on.

Then Cao Daoyuan brought in a group of snow-white jade horses, asked Lu Yang to wear a royal uniform, and put on red and colorful clothes to ride on them. He ordered the deacons of the academy to beat gongs and drums, and began to lead the horses through the streets. It looked like a champion. .

Lu Yang smiled wryly, but couldn't refuse, even Huang Zongxi didn't object, so Lu Yang had no choice but to let it go.

Coming out of Yingsong Building, passing through the academy shopping street, beating gongs and drums all the way, and shouting slogans, the entire academy was alarmed.

Passing through the commercial street, meeting the envious gazes of the Confucian scholars, Lu Yang rode on his horse and bowed to everyone. He walked out of the academy, turned around the Taidao Temple, and passed through the north gate of Moling Mansion. He still beat gongs and drums all the way. The servants shouted loudly, for fear that others would not know.

"Brother, what's your surname?" Lu Yang asked, looking down at Xiusheng who was shouting all the way.

"My name is Han Taozhi. I wonder if Lu Xiandi has any orders?" Han Taozhi grinned and showed his white teeth.

"Brother Han, can you rest for a while?" Lu Yang said.

"That can't be done, the master of the hospital said, today I must shout three thousand times, and I have to swim the main street of Moling Mansion, otherwise I will be punished!"

As Han Taozhi said, he knocked the golden dial three times hard, turned his head and raised his voice to the passers-by in Moling Mansion: "The sage decreed that Lu Yang of Luqiu County wrote the book "Dao of Alchemy", invented the art of alchemy, and made great achievements. In Limin Sheji, a first-class viscount is specially gifted, and it has been inherited for five generations, and I will be a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy..."

With this shout, passers-by in Moling Mansion and businesses on both sides of Xuanwu Street were startled, and people quickly stopped to watch. Lu Yang smiled and bowed to everyone one by one.

"The sage ordered that Lu Yang of Luqiu County wrote the book "Dao of Alchemy", invented the technique of alchemy, and made great contributions to the people and society. He was specially gifted with a first-class viscount salary, hereditary for five generations, and he was lectured by the Imperial Academy..."

Shouts passed all the way, and where they said it, there was a turmoil of people, no matter who they were, they all came out to join in the fun, even the people who were drinking in the restaurant, or the guy in the brothel who was hugging a woman happily, opened the pavilion , stick out your head to watch.

I saw Lu Yang wearing a noble first-class viscount uniform, straddling the horse and parading through the street all the way, bowing to people friendly, and some gentlemen who were studying had to return the salute.

Such an eye-catching scene is indeed enviable. It has been many years since Moling Mansion had no excitement of riding horses through the streets. When Lu Yang came suddenly, the news spread throughout Moling Mansion immediately.

The servants of countless families rushed to tell each other, and some of them ran back quickly to tell their lords or their young ladies about Lu Yang parading through the streets on horseback, and dragged people to the street to watch the excitement.

"It's really handsome, so Mr. Lu hasn't reached the crown yet?"

"He is still a beautiful young man, but he is already a nobleman of the dynasty, a first-class viscount, and has been inherited for five generations. It is such a great honor. I don't know which little lady is lucky enough to marry such a person!"

"Our young lady is not yet married. I think we must talk to the master. If the young lady wants to recruit such a husband, she is still a nobleman. How proud!"

Such an argument really made Lu Yang feel a little elated, and he felt quite good. After all, he was a certain one in his previous life. How could he have enjoyed such a situation of being envied by so many people?

Passing by on horseback all the way, in the attics of several brothels frequented by dignitaries and dignitaries, talented Qing courtiers winked at Lu Yangda, and even a few presumptuous girls shouted: "Mr. Lu, come upstairs, mother said I don't want any silver from you!"

Lu Yang raised his hand and laughed loudly: "Thank you for your kindness, Miss, I will definitely come to you when you have time, haha..."

In such a situation, I don't know how many others are envious.After hearing the news, the young ladies from the aristocratic families rushed over, stretched their fair and delicate necks to watch Lu Yang come on horseback, and made countless girls in the boudoir feel secretly in love for a while.

In a nearby restaurant, a few Confucian scholars who came from Lu Qiu were eating wine, they couldn't help being surprised when they heard the yelling, they went out of the restaurant and saw Lu Yang riding on a tall horse, bowing to each other as if they were saluting.

The yelling came at the right time, and Han Taozhi's voice was not only not hoarse at all, but it became even louder.

Several Confucianists of the Lu family were jealous and envious, surprised and happy, one of them said: "He is really a member of my Lu family, and that person is still a side branch of my fifth uncle..."

The others nodded: "My Lu family has not had a great talent for hundreds of years, and now I finally have a famous figure in the world, which is also a blessing!"

Another person sighed: "It's a pity that it's not my Lu clan, but a side branch!"

As soon as these words came out, several other Confucian masters of the Lu family immediately raised eyebrows and said coldly: "This is a terrible thing! It is because of the clan's ineffective handling that my Lu clan has not had any big figures for many years. Just look at the current clan, the younger generation There is no talent, if there is not such a person now, I am afraid that if I consider myself a member of the Lu clan, I will be ashamed to death!"

Everyone was silent for a long time before they all sighed together and said: "The first-class viscount, who has been inherited for five generations, and Jia En lectured for the Hanlin Academy, that is a sixth-rank official, and he has not yet reached the crown? At such an age, he has achieved so much. In the future It’s not too bad... If my Lu family wants to rejuvenate, I guess it will fall on this son!"

……

Naturally, Lu Yang could not hear the comments of the elders in the clan, so he swam around the Moling Mansion. No matter how energetic Lu Yang was, he still felt invisible fatigue.

Entered from the north gate, walked through the four main streets, east, west, north, south, and finally came out from the north gate again, arrived at the Taidao Temple, went up to the Taidao Temple, and devoutly burned three sticks of high incense in front of the statue of the Taidao saint. Return to Moling Mansion.

Who would have thought that as soon as he entered the courtyard, he would see dozens of famous matchmakers coming to the courtyard, yelling around Lu Yang's mother, and Lu Yang's family was not a vegetarian, so they got along with the matchmakers.

Lu Yang said with a triumphant smile: "Let me tell you, my son is not ordinary. Don't say that today he was awarded the title of first-class viscount by the emperor and a minister of the Imperial Academy. , I don’t care which family sent you from, since you’re here, then leave all the posts, so that I can find out if the girl you said is really as good as you say..."

"Okay, absolutely good, I'm introducing a young lady from a scholarly family, absolutely gentle and virtuous, beautiful and lovely..."

Seeing Lu Yang's return, the matchmakers greeted him one after another, and saluted Lu Yang with a smile: "Master Lu, Minister Lu said, women are being polite!"

As soon as Lu Yang heard this, his head suddenly became dizzy!
