This year coincides with the big assessment once every six years. Qingshu has been in the Ministry of Rites for more than a year, and the assessment of the year before and last year was excellent. However, she has been in the Ministry of Rites for less than two years and has already been promoted to the next level, so it is impossible for her to be promoted again.

At noon that day, the eldest princess sent someone to the Ministry of Rites to tell Qingshu that she wanted to see her.

After taking leave with Guan Langzhong, Qingshu went to the princess's mansion.

The eldest princess looked for Qingshu this time, and she told her about the transfer to the Criminal Department: "Qingshu, there are six places in the six departments, which one do you want to go to?" ”

The Criminal Department has a pursuit department, an autumn trial department, a commutation department, a prison department, a dirty punishment bank, and an atonement department. ”

The Pursuit Division, as the name suggests, is to hunt down criminals; The autumn trial department is the department in charge of the autumn trial and the court trial; The reduction of the level is the reduction of the level of the provinces and the current trial of the case in the event of an edict; The prison guards are in charge of the prison guards and the prisoners who inspect the prison, distributing prison clothes, prison food, medicines, etc.; As for the stolen penalty treasury and the atonement office, you will know what it does by listening to the name.

Without waiting for Qing Shu to speak, the eldest princess said: "The pursuit department is still missing a deputy director, if you are interested, I can get it for you." ”

Qing Shu shook his head and said: "Eldest princess, I have only been in the officialdom for two years and have been promoted to the next level, if I go to the Criminal Department to serve as this deputy director, I will definitely cause you trouble." ”

Last time, she was promoted from the eighth rank to the seventh grade, but she was promoted by one level and was not eye-catching. However, the deputy director is from the sixth grade, and taking this errand is equivalent to being promoted to the third level within two years, which must have attracted everyone's attention.

Of course, if she has merit, she is not afraid of even being promoted to two levels, but she has no merit so far.

"Bengong, the last thing I'm afraid of is trouble." The eldest princess smiled and said, "You said you wanted to do something meaningful, then the Pursuit Division is the best for you." If you go there, you will have the opportunity to avenge the wrongs of those who have been wronged. ”

Qingshu still shook his head and said: "Eldest princess, I hope to walk steadily step by step, otherwise if you step too fast, you will be easy to fall if you don't walk steadily." ”

It's just that she fell and her nose was blue and her face was swollen, for fear of implicating Fu Jingene.

His Royal Highness Taisun is surrounded by wolves, and Jing Ene is a person he trusts. These people must be trying to deal with Jing Ene in every possible way, and Jing Ene can't find weaknesses around her, maybe these people will find a gap from her.

The princess looked at her deeply and said, "In addition, there is a vacant bookkeeper in the subtraction. If you want to, then make up for it! ”

Qingshu nodded and said, "Thank you princess for your grace." ”

The eldest princess waved her hand and said, "Xiao Yu came to visit me in the morning and complained that you were too busy. It's still early, you can go to the Guan family to see her! ”

I have to say that the eldest princess is really fond of Feng Xiaoyu.

When Qingshu arrived at Guan's house, he saw Feng Xiaoyu, and saw that she was wearing a lotus-colored dress with no jewelry on her head, so she couldn't help but smile and asked, "Why are you dressed so plainly?" ”

"The third uncle is gone."

Qingshu asked, "The Feng family, or the Guan family?" ”

"Our uncle! He is an old man in his eighties this year, and when he met him last year, he was still alive and well, and he could drink a bowl of wine and eat a bowl of rice at every meal. I didn't expect that it was only half a year before people left. Feng Xiaoyu said very sadly: "It makes me very uncomfortable to see these loving elders around me disappear one by one. ”

Not only is it uncomfortable, but I am also afraid, afraid that Grandpa Guo will follow like this uncle.

Qingshu said: "Don't think about it, Grandpa Guo and the eldest princess are only in their sixties, and they are still more than twenty years away!" ”

Feng Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "I hope." ”

Grandpa Guo's health has been deteriorating since the end of last year, and she is very worried that she will hear bad news one day. So as soon as she has time, she will go back to accompany the eldest princess and Grandpa Guo.

Old age, sickness and death are natural laws, and no one can change them. Even in Gao Shou, there will be this day, and they can't escape either.

Qingshu changed the topic: "Today, the eldest princess summoned me and asked me which department I wanted to go to, and I chose the commutation. ”

"There are six places in the Criminal Department, why did you choose a commutation department? This is the place where there is no oil and water. ”

"Do you think I'm short of money to spend?"

Feng Xiaoyu said with a smile: "You don't lack money, it's just that this person will dislike a lot of money." ”

Qingshu shook his head and said, "It's not my money, I don't like to ask for it." Xiao Yu, I don't have any experience now, and I'm afraid I won't be able to adapt to other places rashly. It's better to stay in the reduction place first, and then find a way to transfer to the other five places when the regulations inside are all clear. ”

Feng Xiaoyu didn't persuade her when she knew that she had always had an idea, and said with a deliberate smile: "Then did my grandmother give you a promotion?" ”

Qingshu shook his head and said: "No, I also make a book when I go to the subtraction and other places, but this errand is nothing to do on weekdays, and it will only be busy when the emperor is enthroned." ”

Feng Xiaoyu is not interested in officialdom, she still prefers to talk about the length of the family: "Qingshu, the house in Meihua Lane has been cleaned up, and the auspicious day of the zodiac is being chosen." When the date was set, we moved in. ”

"Still drinking?"

Feng Xiaoyu glanced at her and said, "It's not a separation, what kind of wine do you do?" But when I move in, you and Fu Jingene will come to dinner then! ”

"I'm fine, Jing Ene can't say." Qingshu said: "He has been very busy lately, and he has to come back after dark every day. When the time comes, I'm afraid I won't be able to come. ”

"It doesn't matter if he can't come, you can come, anyway, it's mainly to recognize the door." Feng Xiaoyu said with some regret: "It's a pity that you don't live there, otherwise I can go to the door every day." ”

"I just live in Meihua Lane, so I have to go to the yamen on an errand to talk to you every day."

Feng Xiaoyu said unconvinced: "Why am I talking nonsense? I teach them very seriously, and these female students say that I teach them well! ”

In terms of etiquette, Feng Xiaoyu is indeed blessed. After all, the etiquette rules of the eldest princess are exemplary, and it is more than enough for her to follow her by her side and teach these female students.

Qingshu said with some emotion: "In the past, you thought about opening a shop to make money and then marrying a good husband, but now you have become a female gentleman of Wenhuatang. Huan Xi is determined to be a good female gentleman, but now she is taking care of the baby at home. ”

"That's because the child is too young, and when the child is older, she will definitely accept the student." Feng Xiaoyu said with a smile: "I used to think that being a gentleman was hard and tiring and had no future, but now I think teaching children is also a very interesting thing." ”

"What? Planning to do it as a serious errand? ”

Feng Xiaoyu said happily: "I can't say for sure, maybe I'll feel tired of teaching again after a while." But I'm not going to quit this job until I get out of the way. ”

Without this errand, there is no reason to live in Plum Blossom Lane. But if you have taught, you must teach it well.
