Section 8 Wishful thinking

As Feng Ziying thought, the selection of the pavilion is not popular with the people, and not many people even know about it, but it is of great significance to the people in the officialdom.

Where do the common people know the difference between Shu Jishi and ordinary Jinshi, they all want to watch the government, they are all awarded officials after two or three years, and they all want to be the big man, in their opinion, they are all about the same, only Jinshi knows that this is a key threshold, the threshold that determines the upper limit of your future career.

In addition to the first three people in each subject, then only Shu Jishi can be qualified to enter Hanlin, and only those who enter Hanlin are eligible to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, of course, this is just a qualification.

There are 120 people in each department, and at least 10 people can enter Hanlin after the museum is disbanded, which means that at least one or two hundred people are qualified to enter the cabinet in one or two decades.

But just because you're qualified doesn't mean you're okay, and even if you're from a Shujishi background, you may not even be able to be an official of the Six Jiuqing Halls in your life.

But this identity of Ji Ji alone can still make people in the officialdom think highly of you.

Even if you can't enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, but maybe you can have it in this department?

This friendship of studying and governing politics in the Hanlin Academy can also give you a bit of an advantage in the officialdom.

As soon as Wang Ziteng returned home from his inspection of Shanxi Town, he received a notification that his brother-in-law Jia Zheng had come.

Although he was a little tired, Wang Ziteng didn't let Jia Zheng wait, and asked him to wait in the study, and he changed his clothes and went over.

"Oh? Feng Ziying Pavilion chose Shu Jishi? Rao is Wang Ziteng was a little mentally prepared, but he was still quite shocked, "This is the first fifteen-year-old Shu Ji Shi of the Great Zhou Dynasty, this Feng family Lang is constantly creating history, the fifteen-year-old Erjia Jinshi, and now he has become a fifteen-year-old Shu Jishi." ”

"Yes, second brother, in the past few days, I invited him to come over the house to talk, just to probe his tone first,......" Jia Zheng stroked a few strands of beard under his chin, and said with annoyance: "I asked Lian'er and Lian's daughter-in-law to investigate, but they all said that the Feng family has no other intentions now, and his mind is on the pavilion selection, and now the pavilion selection is successful, I was going to invite again, but I heard that the second brother is back, so I came to see the second brother first." ”

Wang Ziteng nodded, "Cun Zhou, I'm afraid the three girls won't be able to do it, what do you think?" ”

The only glimmer of hope in Jia Zheng's heart was also cut off, but in fact, he had long expected that this matter would be impossible, and he was not disappointed, "Madame means to let Baochai, my original intention is to let Daiyu ,......"

Wang Ziteng understood that the husband and wife were afraid that there was a disagreement, so they came to him.

After pondering for a while, he still hoped that his sister and daughter would marry Feng Ziying, so that the relationship between the several families would be closer.

"I heard that Lin Ruhai, a girl with bad health and bones, and lost her mother, I'm afraid the Feng family won't agree, right?" Wang Ziteng obviously got the introduction of his sister a long time ago.

"Well, Daiyu's body is a little thinner, but she is still young, it may be better to wait for two more years, as for the loss of her mother, I don't think it's a big problem, Ruhai is also from a liehou, and she has a tanhua body, the Feng family must be willing,......" Jia Zheng's words are still fair, "Baochai's side, the loss of his father is secondary, the key is that the Feng family may not be willing to accept the family background of the imperial businessman, plus there is also the matter of Wenlong,......"

Wang Ziteng couldn't help frowning.

Jia Zheng's words are very unpleasant, but they are the truth, Xue Pan's incident in Jinling has always been a hidden danger, and it must be dealt with well, otherwise Baochai will probably have some trouble marrying any family.

There is also the issue of the identity of the imperial merchant, it depends on whether the Feng family cares about it or not, and the Wuxun family may not care too much about the identity of the imperial merchant, but if it is about the origin of this Jinshi, I am afraid it will be somewhat hindered.

"Cun Zhou, I heard that Lin Ruhai is now also being targeted by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, although there is no action yet, but it must be guarded against." The prince said slowly.

Jia Zheng was taken aback, Lin Ruhai is his sister-in-law, although his sister is deceased, but Lin Ruhai has never married, and there is a girl like Daiyu, so he is also very concerned about Lin Ruhai's situation.

"Second brother, is this true? Why is this so? ”

"I'm not sure yet, I've just heard some rumors." Wang Ziteng's face was gloomy.

As far as he knows, I'm afraid it's more than that.

The Jiangnan Zhen family should be targeted by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so Lin Ruhai will be involved, but the Jiangnan Zhen family is very wide-ranging, and it may also affect Prince Yizhong, what the Metropolitan Procuratorate intends is still unclear.

In Wang Ziteng's opinion, the emperor should not make any big moves at this time, but sometimes it is not necessarily.

This Metropolitan Procuratorate is really a mad dog that is not very easy to tame, more than 100 supervising the imperial history, even the left capital imperial history can not be completely controlled, in addition to the left capital imperial history, the right capital imperial history, the left and right deputy imperial envoys, the left and right imperial history, almost everyone has a group of hardcore thugs under their hands, plus the six branches that may join the war group at any time, the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty are the most powerful literati.

Once it is aroused, it will be difficult for even the emperor to control.

You can stay in the middle and not send it, but these guys can keep biting and forcing you to have an explanation, unless you really don't want to lose face.

"Ruhai has always been quite upright, how can he be targeted by the Metropolitan Procuratorate?" Jia Zheng was a little unconvinced.

"Cun Zhou, people walk by the river, how can they not get their feet wet? Besides, what should you mean by Lin Ruhai's position, who are the people who have dealt with him over the years? Don't you know? The prince didn't make any accusations, but said calmly: "There is only such a sign now, but it is difficult to say whether it will involve anything, or to what extent it will evolve, I just said that there is such a risk." ”

This scared Jia Zheng a lot, if Lin Ruhai was involved in such a thing, what would be the consequences? On the contrary, Daiyu's marriage has to be put aside.

Seeing that Jia Zheng was frightened, Wang Ziteng said: "Lin Ruhai's matter, I estimate that even if it is implicated, but after all, it is a matter of the emperor's time, even if the Imperial Procuratorate refuses to give up, but I think the emperor will definitely maintain it, so don't worry too much about it." ”

Seeing that Wang Ziteng was firm, Jia Zheng's heart was a little wider.

"I hope that such things don't involve Ruhai, otherwise my sister will not be able to live in peace under Jiuquan." Jia Zheng said gloomily.

"Cun Zhou doesn't have to think too much, there are different opinions within the court about this kind of thing, maybe it will drag on for a year and a half, and the emperor and the emperor have a plan, that is, a group of people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate are tossing, and in the end, it may be that the board is raised high and gently put down." Wang Ziteng waved his hand, "But this matter of the Feng family, I think it might as well be like this, you first find an opportunity to find a chance to listen to the tone of the Feng family, don't say who it is, just ask him about the marriage, if he has not yet decided to marry, he will say that he is willing to do something for him, so ask him what he thinks, here I will send a letter to Feng Tang." ”

Jia Zheng's spirits perked up, "Second brother and Feng Tang ...... over there"

Wang Ziteng pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "The imperial court regulations, this position of governor should not be in office for a long time, especially since I am from Wuxun, I am afraid that this aspect is even more demanding, I estimate that the imperial court may be interested in letting me step down as the governor of Xuanda at the end of the year and become the governor of the three sides." ”

The governor of the three sides is the governor in charge of the four towns of Gansu, Ningxia, Guyuan and Yulin, and he can be regarded as Feng Tang's direct boss.

Jia Zheng immediately understood Wang Ziteng's plan, this was not calculated by Lin Daiyu at all, but directly considered for Xue Baochai, he was hesitant, but it was not easy to refute, just silent.

Wang Ziteng is such a person, how he didn't understand what Jia Zheng thought, and said lightly: "Cun Zhou, don't think that I am thinking about my sister, you also know the current situation of the Xue family, if you don't support it, I'm afraid that the Xue family will decline, even so, I am not sure to convince Feng Tang, if Feng Tang does not allow it, then I will do it for Lin Ruhai, what do you think?" ”

Jia Zheng is a bad person, Wang Ziteng said this, he also admitted that the current situation of the Xue family is quite difficult, I am afraid that there is only some silver left in this house, and this kind of livelihood is still shrinking, if a strong husband family to support, I am afraid that the little silver will turn into water, and it is indeed difficult for the Xue family to spread an eldest son like Xue Pan.

However, Jia Zheng doesn't think that Wang Ziteng can make sense of Feng Tang, with Feng Ziying's identity, I'm afraid that he may not be willing to listen to his father's opinion, and Feng Tang also has to think about his son's future future.

After thinking about it, Jia Zheng could only agree first.

However, he was also pondering, if his sister-in-law could talk to the Feng family first, it would be fine, but it would be difficult for him to come forward again, otherwise let Wang Ziteng know, I am afraid that the two families of Jia Wang will be suspicious.

Maybe you can send a letter to your sister-in-law?

This kind of tangled mood has been until he returned to his own house, met Tanchun at the Yimen, gave Jia Zheng a gift, and saw Tanchun's slim appearance and moon appearance, Jia Zheng felt irritable for no reason, why did he think about other daughters, but his daughter never considered it?

But he felt a little more guilty in his heart, and called Tanchun to stop and ask for a while before leaving, which made Tanchun inexplicable, and he didn't know what was wrong with his father.

When Jia Zheng returned to the room, he asked people to invite Mrs., and when Mrs. Wang arrived, she said that she had seen Wang Ziteng, and Mrs. Wang naturally had no objection, and now it was left to see Feng Ziying.

But before he went out, he received news from Jia Lian.

The palace decreed that the Feng family would be the marquis, but it was given to Feng Qin, the marquis of Hulun, who had been dead for eighteen years, which was one level higher than the original Yunchuan Bo of the Feng family.
