Originally, Zhao Ruxi only spent half a day to calculate the grain and grass at the border pass when Guo Jitong made a big mistake, and he made a great contribution. At that time, although Xiao Qi rewarded her with some gold, silver and silk, everyone knew that this reward was far from enough compared to the great merit she had made.

Now that the border war is over, not only the border soldiers and ministers such as Zhang Changshen need to be rewarded for their merits, but Zhao Ruxi's merits also need to be rewarded again.

At the end of the second day, Kang Shilin sent someone to spread the word and asked Zhao Ruxi to go to his house.

Zhao Ruxi guessed that this was the case and hurriedly went to Kangfu.

"Zhiwei, you made a great contribution a year ago, and today the emperor called me and asked me what you want. He wants to make you the county lord, what do you think? Kang Shilin asked.

This is the same as what Xiao Lingyan and Zhao Ruxi guessed last night.

Zhao Ruxi waved his hand and said: "I just did a little thing for the imperial court, how can I have any credit?" The position of county lord is never daring. ”

Kang Shilin laughed.

Everyone has this mentality. I can give it to you, but you can't ask for it. If you take the initiative to ask for it, it is a desire for profit, and you will do things with too strong purpose. Such people are often unlikable.

Kang Shilin is a person with a true temperament, but he knows the emperor's psychology very well. He knew that the emperor would definitely like to hear Zhao Ruxi's answer.

"The emperor is a wise monarch, and he has always rewarded meritorious deeds. Others will be rewarded for their merits, but when it comes to my apprentices, they don't want anything, which is not good. The emperor specially called me to go, and he also values you and me, so don't shirk it if you give it to you. You hurry up and think about it, do you want the position of county lord, or something else. ”

Zhao Ruxi lowered his eyes and made a reflection.

County lords, county lords, princesses, although these titles are generally given to royal women, once there are women in the people who have made great contributions to the court in some aspects, the court will also give these titles. If the woman marries, she will be given the title of "Mrs. So".

This is a special honor for a woman, and it is also a guarantee for this woman's life. With these titles, if you marry someone in the future, your in-laws will not dare to fight at will, otherwise it will be contempt for the royal family.

Zhao Ruxi has always wanted to be a wealthy family by himself, so he has always hoped to get a title. But she doesn't want this kind of title with female characteristics, but wants to be titled by men, such as duke, marquis, uncle, son, and male.

As a modern independent woman, she was placed high hopes on Princess Shangde and Mrs. Cui in ancient times. Since she is capable, she wants to fight for the same treatment of women and men. So even if it wasn't for Zhao Yuanxun, and she didn't have the title of future princess of Qi, she was unwilling to accept the title of county lord.

She raised her eyes: "Master, I want to be admitted to the rank of sergeant and official with my own ability." If I get the name of the county lord and become an official, others will think that the official position and status I have obtained come from the royal grace, and they will cooperate with me and work together, not because I have that ability, but in the face of the emperor. It's not what I want. ”

"So I understand the emperor's grace and kindness."

When Kang Shilin heard this, his brows furrowed.

He himself is a person without utilitarianism, otherwise when the emperor knighted him, he would not have refused.

Zhao Ruxi didn't want the title of this county lord, and he didn't care. He thinks that as long as people have the ability, even if they don't have a title, others can look up to you wherever you go.

How many empty and dilapidated houses with titles are there in the capital?

Seeing this, Zhao Ruxi knew his embarrassment, and hurriedly said: "If the emperor gives someone else a reward, and if he doesn't give me a reward, he thinks it's inappropriate, then I'll be cheeky to make a request to you, Master." If you think you can, tell the emperor for me. If it's not appropriate, just say nothing. ”

Kang Shilin's brows opened at this time, and he nodded: "What you want, you just say." ”

"My dad has always been ambitious and capable. It's just that he was weak, and he took the wrong general, so he was delayed. How well he has been doing in Dali Temple in the past half a year, I want to come to the emperor and Lord Zhang also know in their hearts. If you think that he has the ability to stand alone, I want to implore the emperor to let him serve in the local government for two years, which can be regarded as the whole of his dedication in this life. Of course, if you feel that he is incompetent, then forget it. After all, we have to think about the local people, and we can't joke about local public office for our own selfishness. ”

"Alas, you child, you are filial." Kang Shilin looked at the little apprentice and was very emotional.

He felt that the little apprentice refused to be the county lord, although there were those reasons she said, it might be more for his father.

There are women like this, and Zhao Yuanxun doesn't know what incense he burned in his previous life. And he Kang Shilin is also a blessed one. Zhao Ruxi is like this to his father, and he will definitely not be bad as a master.

"Cheng, I'll mention it to the emperor." Kang Shilin said.

He didn't think it was a big deal.

Xiao Qi is a good emperor. If Zhao Yuanxun is not qualified for the post of magistrate, he will definitely not let Zhao Yuanxun go to the post. If Zhao Yuanxun has the ability, even if Zhao Ruxi doesn't mention it, Zhao Yuanxun has his own heart, and he is willing to fulfill Zhao Yuanxun.

And Zhao Ruxi's side, don't look at her young age, but she is a very clear and measured person. If Zhao Yuanxun didn't have this ability, even if Zhao Yuanxun begged her, she wouldn't say this. She mentioned it, that is, she knew her father's abilities and felt that he was competent.

Once these two compartments are combined, there is nothing that cannot be impossible.

"You, or your father, do you have a place you want to go?" He asked again.

It is a grace to Zhao Ruxi, and Zhao Yuanxun's official position naturally has to be mentioned, and he has to go to a place where their father and daughter are satisfied. Naturally, a place with poor mountains and bad water will not be sent.

"I've always felt that Jiangnan is a good place with a thriving literary style. It's good that my father goes to work, and my brother can follow him to see it. Zhao Ruxi said a little embarrassed.

After speaking, she hurriedly added: "But that place is too good, no matter what the official is, it is fat." If there is a shortage, there is a suitable place; If not, it will be sent anywhere. My dad is old and not in good health. went out to work for two or three years, but it was just to complete his heart and not let him have regrets. ”

Kang Shilin nodded: "That's done." I will convey your meaning to the emperor. ”

In the evening, Kang Shilin entered the palace and told Xiao Qi what Zhao Ruxi meant.

He can win the trust and love of two emperors, and he is very good at talking. not only put forward Zhao Ruxi's request, but also made Xiao Qi feel that Zhao Ruxi was very humble and sensible, and felt that it was right to do things for the imperial court, and she did not make any requests. Even if you make a small request, it's all filial piety.
