Everyone laughed at her reaction. Since Su Jing had to complete the parade on horseback and there were many people watching in the city, Su Jing asked them to go back and wait for her.
The subordinates of several officials have brought a horse over, and they will parade through the streets with the No. 1 Scholar. Su Jing will take the lead, and they will follow closely. The escort team will guard both sides for protection.
The streets were already overcrowded and it was impossible to walk any further. The Su family had no choice but to disappear into the crowd and follow the team.
The common people took the initiative to make way for a glimpse of the champion. They were so noisy that they had to shout at the top of their lungs when talking.
Jiang Yu and Su Chen had been guarding Su's mother and Su Wan, fearing that they would get separated or be stepped on.
Many rich ladies in the attic saw the high-spirited Su Jing and were attracted by his demeanor and appearance. They all started to have a girlish pregnancy with their faces red and their hearts beating.
Some of the bold ones threw the handkerchief they were carrying from the window, hoping that the wind would carry it and float to the champion man's side so that he could see him.
However, the wind in August was not very strong, and those veils were lost in the crowd, or were stepped on or picked up.
There were many praisers in the crowd, all lamenting the champion's good demeanor.
Because there were too many people, the crowds of people pushed Su Wan and Su's mother apart, but fortunately, Jiang Yu was always behind her, separating the crowd for her and preventing her from being squeezed at all.
If he sees a man getting close, he will stretch out his arms to put some distance between them.
Details are the most touching, and Su Wan doesn't have to worry about being offended.
The road back home is long, but there are so many people. If we walk slowly, we don’t know how long it will take to reach the end.
Glancing at the sun that was approaching noon, a thin layer of sweat formed on Su Wan's forehead.
There was no doubt that the Su family had missed lunch when they arrived home one after another, but fortunately there was a cook at home who ordered them to prepare meals.
Su Jing had also arrived and invited several adults to come in for a meal. It was hard to refuse Zhuangyuan Lang's kindness, so the adults stayed for a meal.
Su Jing had traveled a long distance and was dusty. They didn't want to take him to drink too much. They just wanted to let him rest for a few days. The escort team arranged by the court had been arranged to stay at the official post one after another. Su Jing had a month. He can reunite with his family at home. In a month, he will take office. The Su family does not know the specific official position assigned to him.
Several adults had a few drinks with him, and they agreed to meet again one day and not come back until they were drunk.
The gold-plated lacquer plaque with the title of No. 1 Scholar and the No. 1 Scholar inscribed by the Emperor himself was hung directly above the main throne in the main hall. It was a symbol of honor. Visitors would be able to see the Su family's imperial favor in the future.
Su Wan counted the two carts of rewards and put them into the warehouse. After all the fuss, it was already evening.
The gifts given in the palace are all of the best, which are hard to see even among the people. Five hundred taels of gold, plus a palace for the number one scholar in Kyoto. The jewelry is packed in boxes. The jade, silk and silk are gorgeous and exquisite, and the jade and jade ornaments are even more exquisite. Each one is more beautiful than the other.
Su Jing had just left the palace to meet the saint, and less than half an hour after arriving home, the high-ranking officials and nobles in Kyoto heard the news and came to him. They sent him all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry. They were all congratulatory and flattering. There was no place to put them, so they simply brought them all back.
Su Jing didn't have time to fix herself. After bathing and changing clothes, she gathered with her family in the main hall. It was indispensable for her family members to talk to each other.
Jiang Yu was also there, and Su Jing had to thank him for finding someone to take care of him in Kyoto, which saved him a lot of trouble, got a lot of convenience, and avoided a lot of misunderstandings.
When I first arrived in Kyoto, I didn't know the prices in Kyoto. Later I learned that Jiang Yu's house would cost a hundred taels a month if rented on a monthly basis.
The old servants in the courtyard took good care of him, and he personally took care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation.
When he went up, he gave him the highest gentleman's salute. Jiang Yu quickly stood up and helped him:
"Brother Su, this is impossible."
"So, I want to thank Ayu for taking care of me. If you hadn't asked Uncle Qin to take care of me and take care of everything for me, how could I have been so smooth in Kyoto?
Therefore, I have to thank you, and you have to accept my worship. "This is the friendship between gentlemen.
"I should congratulate Brother Su for finally getting what he wanted and reaching the top of the list."
As soon as Jiang Yu finished speaking, Su Jing bowed to him again, which made him speechless.
"What's the reason for this?"
"This time I pray, Xie Ayu takes care of my family for me."
As his eldest brother is not at home, Jiang Yu must have secretly found someone to take care of many things. On the one hand, he can be safe and smooth in Kyoto, and on the other hand, he can rest assured at home, so that he can concentrate on preparing for the exam.
"We are all one family, as it should be. Brother Su's family is also my family." Jiang Yu glanced at Su Wan meaningfully. The look between the two of them was not clear.
Su Jing is not often at home, spends little time with her sister, and even less time with Jiang, so he still doesn't know about the little relationship between them.
Afterwards, the family talked about whether Su Jing had been banned from her position. This was what everyone was concerned about.
Su Jing asked everyone to guess, but no one could guess. Su Wan felt that no matter what happened, he would be no worse than in his previous life. In the original work, if he won the third prize, he would at least be a sixth-grade imperial official. He was in the Hanlin Academy, and now he is He's the top pick, so he can't be more powerful?
Jiang Yu guessed that it should not be lower than the sixth level at least, which was similar to what Su Wan thought.
The rest of the Su family didn't know anything about this. The biggest official they had ever seen was the governor of Xiangzhou. .
Seeing them looking at each other, you look at me, I look at you, you can't guess, Su Jing doesn't beat around the bush anymore.
"After the imperial list came out, the Holy Emperor summoned me and Tanhua, who was second on the list, to face the Holy Spirit. There were two prime ministers on the left and right in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, as well as the cabinet's bachelors. The Holy Emperor personally appointed me as the Water Command of the Capital of Xuanhe River. I am an official of the fifth rank and supervise the imperial examination. He will control the river floods and build dikes to benefit the people of Xuanhe. He will take office a month later."
"Fifth-grade official, so big?" Su's mother didn't understand the advantages and disadvantages of Du Shui Ling's official position. She only heard about the rank. She was a fifth-grade official. How could that be a big deal?
Don't talk about her, in fact, other people don't understand very well, but Su Wan is not surprised. The eldest brother has reached the top of the list by relying on his flood control strategies. The Lord naturally wants to see if he can only talk but not do practical things. There is nothing wrong with him arranging this official position.
There are many people in charge of the water order here. Basically all the officials in Xuanhe water supervision have to listen to him. He is the top leader.
"Floods occur frequently in the Xuanhe River. Due to the impact of floods, the Xuanhe River Basin is located in a barren area. I heard that life there is very hard and it is a barren land. Every year during the flood season, there are always casualties. My eldest brother wants to build dams to control floods, so then We are on the cusp of the storm every day.”
Su Chen often travels around, so he has heard a lot, and he also knows a little bit about it. The position of eldest brother sounds prestigious, but the pros and cons are also obvious.
