"Where are Uncle She Shi and Uncle Zheng Shi?" Feng Ziying also knew that it was better to come to Jia Mansion to meet Jia She and Jia Zheng. After all, they were family friends, and they were engaged to Daiyu, so they were considered nephews and sons-in-law.
"Yes, yes, both gentlemen are here." Li Liuer grinned with joy, "Then let me pass it on to you?"
It's okay to meet, but don't waste too much time, but it's not up to him.
Logically speaking, I was promoted from the sixth rank of the Hanlin Academy to the fifth rank of Yongping Prefecture after completing the three-year Jinshi period. It was a very amazing promotion. I should celebrate it, but this The official document has just been issued, so it makes sense to wait a little longer, but at least we should inform our relatives, friends, and old friends.
Such rapid promotion is the power of Jinshi.
And if you can stay in the Sixth Ministry of the Central Government or the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it will be even more extraordinary. It is already very rare to be a fifth-rank official in the capital.
However, according to the practice of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if a Jinshi has to stay in the so-called Jiuqing institutions of the Six Ministries, the Metropolitan Inspectorate, the General Affairs Department, and the Dali Temple after the three-year period of observing the government, generally speaking, he will be automatically demoted to one level, that is, He said that if Feng Ziying wanted to stay in the Ministry of Personnel or the Ministry of War or the Metropolitan Procuratorate, she should have been a fifth-rank official, then she should directly serve as a doctor, such as the doctor in the Ministry of Personnel Examination, but she thought that was impossible.
The position of doctor in the Ministry of Personnel is very high, and even those who are Jinshi without more than ten years of experience cannot even think of getting involved. Another example is the Ministry of War's military selection of Shilang, even Jinshi, without more than ten years of experience, can't even think about it. In contrast, a doctor in the arsenal department generally requires more than eight years of experience.
Although these are not expressly stipulated, they are the practices formed in the Zhou Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, or they are the rules and regulations proposed by a certain cabinet of the imperial court.
Therefore, if Feng Ziying wants to stay in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, even if Qi Yongtai promotes him, he will have to be demoted from the fifth grade to the fifth grade. At most, he will be a Yuanwailang in the fourth department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. , and most likely they will be Yuanwailang of the Examination Department or the Honors Examination Department. Of course, the salary will be paid according to the fifth grade, but the title can only be used down one level.
Moreover, the Great Zhou Dynasty is different from the previous Ming Dynasty. Although there is only one minister in each of the six divisions, there can be more than one Yuanwailang. There can be as many as two to three people. There can be as many as three to five chief ministers. A character with a casual salary, such as Jia Zheng.
Even if they have to be demoted one level, the Jinshi are still more willing to stay in Beijing? Because everyone knows that although the next level is higher, the road to promotion in the future will be too narrow? There are so many officials below, who are in a similar situation to you It's everywhere, even if someone is more experienced and better at doing things than you, maybe three years after three years after three years, you may not be able to move your position.
And those who hold high positions in the capital are either ministers or ministers, and all of them can be heard at any time, or can talk to the elders in the cabinet? Can they behave better? Or are they attracted by some big boss? ? Maybe it will soar into the sky.
It can be said that Feng Ziying is so popular but wants to be an official. Fortunately, everyone knows that Mr. Qi Ge, the left deputy censor Qiao Yingjia, and the official Ying Zhen who is the right minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Can he be regarded as his mentor? Otherwise, everyone would really think that he would collapse.
Li Liuer went to pass the news in a hurry.
It wasn't until Jia She and Jia Zheng appeared together that Feng Ziying realized that she had underestimated the huge changes in her identity in just a few days.
He is no longer the one who studied in the Hanlin Academy of the sixth rank, but is actually a fellow of the Yongping Prefecture of the fifth rank? Even Jia Zheng is one level lower than him in front of him. As for Jia She, who is purely concerned about Those with empty titles are even less worth mentioning.
"Uncle Shi Shi, Uncle Zheng Shi." Feng Ziying still saluted with the same seriousness.
Both Jia She and Jia Zheng had a look of satisfaction on their faces. As the older generation, what are you most afraid of is the kind of character who doesn't know the heights of the world even if you are a little proud? Although they all think that Feng Ziying will not be like that? But they are still a little worried. Now it seems It's too much to worry about.
"Ziying, congratulations." Jia She took the lead and said: "The editor of Hanlin Academy is now a member of the fifth rank. Yongping Mansion is also very close to the capital, so it is convenient to come and go..."
Jia Zheng also stroked his beard and smiled, listening to his brother's congratulations. He waited until his brother finished speaking before he continued: "Ziying, you are a second-class Jinshi, but you have made history. First you made an exception and edited for the Hanlin Academy, and now you are promoted to full Fifth rank, he can be regarded as the youngest official of the fifth rank since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty. It is unprecedented and hard to say, but it is definitely unprecedented."
"Uncle Shibo is overly praised. My nephew was also a bit of a liar before, so his release from Beijing can be regarded as a lesson." Feng Ziying did not hide her release from Beijing. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that logically she should not leave Beijing, but since she did Beijing, there must be a reason. There are different opinions, so it is better to open it up frankly.
"Oh?" Jia She and Jia Zheng exchanged glances. They both knew that the rumors from the outside world might be true. The strategy of opening up the sea still displeased the northern scholars, so even Qi Yongtai had to teach his proud disciple a lesson. I gave an explanation to the Northland gentry.
Jia Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "Ziying, actually the court should know that the release from Beijing is only for a short period of time. It is estimated that you will be back in two or three years. And didn't the emperor and the court also give you the restoration of the Feng family as compensation? ? So you don’t have to be depressed, you can come back after two years, and the court will definitely use him in a important way. "
"Then thank you very much, uncle Zhengshi, for your words. My nephew didn't think too much about it. Thunder, rain and dew are all for your kindness." Feng Ziying laughed, "Whether we go to Yongping Mansion, my nephew also wants to get acquainted with us in the north." The situation here is that the prime minister must be from a prefecture or county. My nephew dare not dream of becoming a minister, but at this time of instability, I also want to share your worries, so I might as well go down."
"Well, Ziying, let's go see the old lady. She was still talking about Ziying before." Jia Zheng invited.
This is also what it should be. Feng Ziying is going to be Jia Mu's future grandson-in-law. This visit is different from the past, so naturally she must use all the etiquette.
When we arrived at Jia Mu's house, there was a lot of excitement again. Jia Mu was also very happy and said many auspicious words. Feng Ziying couldn't help being humble. In short, we had a great conversation.
After spending most of an hour with Jia Mu, Jia She, and Jia Zheng, Feng Ziying took the initiative to leave.
When Jia Sheng and Jia Zheng were sent out, Feng Ziying said she wanted to go into the garden. They both smiled understandingly and said goodbye to Feng Ziying.
They thought Feng Ziying was going to see Daiyu, but they never thought that Feng Ziying was going to see Baochai.
But just as Feng Ziying took a few steps, Jia She left Jia Zheng behind and followed him.
"Ziying."
Seeing Jia She's hesitant expression, Feng Ziying naturally knew what the other party wanted to say. With Jia Rui guiding him, although Feng Ziying never showed up, the two parties had a tacit understanding with each other.
"Uncle Shi Shi, my nephew has no intention of interfering with the affairs of the house. However, the money that Sister Lin lent to the house cannot be taken away by some outsiders through bad means. However, the servant's family can live more luxuriously than the master's family. Now The master’s family is in trouble, I’m afraid this kind of behavior is unacceptable to anyone, right?”
Feng Ziying's words made Jia She feel reassured, especially when Feng Ziying emphasized the word "outsider". Of course, Jia She understood it and nodded repeatedly: "Ziying said it well, knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing hearts. Who has ever I think our Jia family treats others with sincerity, but has raised a bunch of white-eyed wolves, which should have been rectified long ago, but the old lady is kind-hearted, but she is taken advantage of by these people. "
"Well, Uncle Shi, I believe that as long as the matter is spread out, the old lady still understands the righteousness. We are not targeting anyone, who did it, how much we swallowed, and what needs to be vomited out. Over the years, The Jia family is increasingly in financial difficulties. How big of a problem is there? It’s time to find out, don’t you think?"
The smile on Feng Ziying's face became gentler, but in Jia She's eyes, it looked a bit cold.
No wonder people are afraid of people who have read. People who have read do things by planning and then acting. They will kill with one strike. They have everything planned out. In the end, you can’t escape at all. Jia Rui was taken care of by Feng Ziying. , Jia She was amazed.
"Zi Ying is right, we should find out. Over the years, I have also wondered why the house has become so tight, and how much trouble there is. Let's find out and then talk about it." Jia She felt relieved, Just then when she was about to leave, Feng Ziying couldn't help but ask one more question: "Uncle Shi Shi, the second brother Lian has already left for Yangzhou. Before he left, he also asked me to take care of the second sister. I wonder if the second sister will be here today?"
Jia She's face changed slightly. After looking at Feng Ziying's casual expression, he said for a long time: "The second girl is naturally in the house, but Ziying, you..."
"Uncle Shi Shi, the Sun family is not a suitable family. Uncle Shi Shi should think more about the future of his second sister's marriage..." Feng Ziying also heard that Sun Shaozu came back to the capital to donate some money to Jia She, so Jia She Feeling a little excited again.
"Humph, Ziying, what do you know?" Jia She was a little unhappy, "The Sun family is also a Wuxun family, and Sun Shaozu has also found a guerrilla in Ping'an Prefecture. Although it is a continuation of the relationship, it is not possible for the second girl to marry. She’s just the head wife, what’s wrong with her?”
"Uncle Shi Shi, you can't just look at the surface of the problem. Sun Shaozu is so bold. His activities in the border areas are nothing if nothing happens. Once something happens, it will probably lead to a big disaster and may even affect others. Uncle Shi Shi, think about it carefully. Bar."
Feng Ziying is indeed unwilling to marry into the hot pit of the Sun family in the spring, and she is about to go to Yongping to take up a post. In the future, she will not have so much contact with the Jia family, and the information may not be so well-informed. If Jia She suddenly When Yingchun married into the Sun family, it was too late to save others.
When Jia She saw that Feng Ziying was speaking formally, he could only walk away angrily. After all, he still did not dare to speak harshly to Feng Ziying.
