"Sister Yuan, did you have any lofty ideals when you were studying?"
Emperor Yanping asked, holding the tea bowl with a smile.
Sheng Yuan glanced at Anyu, who had asked the emperor to take him aside for tea, then looked at the emperor's brother-in-law, who was smiling as if he was trying to trick a child, and decided to tell the truth:
"Back to the emperor, of course there is... Since ancient times, literati and warriors have not always said that learning civil and martial arts will lead to the emperor's family. Naturally, I also hope so. Although the girl had not yet been able to take the scientific examination at that time, the former emperor Chengyuan Some girls have been allowed to become female officers.
I thought about it, my aunt is the queen, my uncle is the emperor, and my cousin is the prince. As long as I study hard, it will not be difficult to find an official position when I grow up.
So my ideal is to be like my father, to go to a leisurely place like the Hanlin Academy to enjoy, oh, no, I mean, to go to a noble place like the Hanlin Academy to improve my knowledge. "
Emperor Yanping's smile was a little awkward.
Although the experience of being embarrassed for others was not a good one, Emperor Yanping couldn't bear it when faced with Sheng Yuan's words that were full of flaws.
This girl took it for granted that she had a relationship and was a salted fish. Emperor Yanping felt that he had reason to believe that her face and mentality were far beyond anyone's imagination.
"What about now? It's rare to find a husband with a grade of six yuan, but you have such good results in the first session of the women's imperial examination. Do you think your ideals will change?"
"I am a pragmatic person. Before I entered the officialdom, I had some daydreams, but after I really came into contact with official duties, I found that being down-to-earth and faithful to my duties are the most important things. As for the goal, naturally the higher the better. If you are lucky, By joining the cabinet to share the worries of His Majesty, I should try my best to assist His Majesty in continuing the prosperous age and maintaining glory."
Emperor Yanping, who had succeeded in self-regulating his emotions, immediately understood when he heard this: His sister-in-law said so much, but the key lies in the last sentence "enter the cabinet."
Now that he has entered the cabinet, it would be embarrassing if he were not to be the chief minister... Emperor Yanping silently helped Sheng Yuan to complete this sentence.
Although she was sometimes speechless about Sheng Yuan's thinking, her ambition was a good thing for Emperor Yanping.
If she were as content with the status quo and indulged in pleasure as Brother Yu, it would not be easy for his plan to unfold.
"You have ambition!" Emperor Yanping praised without concealing his appreciation, "However, just having ambition is not enough, you have to work hard!"
Sheng Yuan nodded in agreement: "I recently have new ideas for educating the people under Shuntian Mansion..."
"Well, Sister Yuan, let's not mention Shuntian Mansion for now." Although Emperor Yanping was very interested in Sheng Yuan's usual whims and whims, he had no intention of talking more at the moment, "I ask you, do you know... Zi Yan, The Second Chen Dynasty continues to this day, and all the ministers who can enter the cabinet to discuss matters have a resume of external affairs?"
"I know!" Sheng Yuan reacted and his eyes lit up, "Sir, do you have any arrangements for me?"
When Emperor Yanping saw her taking the initiative to say something, he smiled with satisfaction: "Sister Yuan, your sister is the one who loves and misses you the most all the time... Well, as a brother-in-law, I naturally wish you well."
[But...] As soon as Emperor Yanping finished speaking, the system immediately answered.
"But..." As soon as the system finished saying these two words, Emperor Yanping spoke.
Sheng Yuan, who also had the same prediction, almost laughed.
Emperor Yanping didn't know the situation, so he continued his deception: "However, for foreign officials in the capital, they usually have to be promoted by half a level to the first level; but the chief officials of the local government are mostly in the fourth grade. Now, it is the same as your current grade. It's the same! If you are transferred out of Beijing on a regular basis, I am afraid that others will misunderstand you, which will not be conducive to your work.
But if you are asked to serve in a province, and the chief envoy is a second-grade official, and you are not qualified enough to be qualified, then the appropriate position is to participate in politics, that is, from a third-grade official... Although it is suitable in terms of rank, However, without the experience of serving as a local official, it is not easy to become a frontier official. If you are just an auxiliary officer, the purpose of letting you go out for training will not be achieved. "
As Emperor Yanping spoke, he couldn't help but sigh: "Therefore, there are not many positions suitable for you, Sister Yuan!"
"..." Sheng Yuan was jealous of the emperor who was also her brother-in-law, but she still pretended to be humble and asked hurriedly, "Your Majesty, what should I do?"
