Chapter 470: Cai Gao Badou
The next day, when the emperor decided on the positions of several people, he specially summoned Jiang Zhan to the palace and discussed with him privately.
"Your Majesty." After Jiang Zhan entered, he directly bowed to the emperor.
"Pingshen, I called you here today to ask you, what do you think of the new champion?" In fact, last night, the emperor also noticed the flaws in his character.
"Weichen feels that this person is a little conceited, if he doesn't grind his anger, even if he wins the title of champion, he can't put himself in the shoes of the people!" Jiang Zhan said how he felt.
It is impossible for a proud person to easily experience the life of ordinary people.
Jiang Zhan came from a small county town at the beginning, and the county magistrate of Linhe County at that time was not an upright person.
However, he still has something to fear, so he doesn't dare to do too much, but ordinary people still have a hard time.
After all, there is no power, so you can only let others practice and suppress it.
"Weichen thinks that Lord Jiang's words are reasonable." Wu Yuanheng was also born in a big family, and he used to be equally cold and arrogant, but he didn't look down on others, but he didn't want to bother to deal with others.
However, the new champion is different from him, and the other party is a little arrogant.
If you don't have such a character, you won't be able to become great in the future.
So after careful consideration, the emperor decided to let him go to the remote north to serve and temper his mind.
If he changes when his term of office expires, it will be too late to transfer him back to the capital......
When he went back, Xue Yao suddenly told him something about the new champion.
"Are you saying that someone has taken a fancy to his talent and wants him to be his son-in-law?" Jiang Zhan didn't expect things to turn out like this.
"Well, Master Sun's daughter thinks that the new champion is a rich man at a young age, and he has a good character, so she has a good impression of him." That Miss Sun is a frequent customer in her shop, and Xue Yao is the wife of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
The two inevitably had some intersections, so the other party found her for help, wanting Jiang Zhan to probe the other party's tone.
Although it is true that he did not marry a wife, if the family has already betrothed him, then this matter cannot be done.
She asked Xue Yao for help to avoid leaking things out before they were decided, and if things didn't work out at that time, her reputation would definitely be affected.
After all, the Sun family is also a well-known big family in the capital, and they have always attached great importance to face.
"I'll find a way to inquire about this matter, don't rush to reply to her first." After all, the emperor had already decided to let him leave the capital to go to training.
If the marriage is negotiated at that time, the other party will not be able to accept this, and it may cause trouble for Xue Yao.
"Okay." Xue Yao didn't know what he was worried about, but she immediately agreed.
Anyway, she just agreed to help Miss Sun ask, as for whether they can finally get married, it depends on their fate.
After Jiang Zhan investigated privately, he quickly learned about the background of the new champion.
"I've checked, the champion has an innocent family background, there are no relatives in the family anymore, this time he can come to participate in the scientific examination, it is all left by his parents!" He was originally preparing to participate in the last imperial examination, when he was seventeen years old and in his prime.
It's a pity that his parents died suddenly, and he did not participate in the imperial examination in order to keep filial piety.
Before his parents died, his family had been doing well.
Even if they died, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing.
If Miss Sun says that she really likes each other, it is a good marriage, after all, the champion's parents are gone, and as soon as she marries, she does not need to serve her in-laws at home, but can advance and retreat with her husband......
When Xue Yao learned about his situation, she immediately told Miss Sun about the matter.
When she heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Originally, she just took a fancy to the other party's talent, but she didn't expect that there were no elders in his family, so that she could be the master of the house as soon as she got married, and she didn't have to worry about being angry with her mother-in-law.
She was satisfied with this marriage.
"Thank you Mrs. Jiang, the little girl will definitely repay you in the future." In fact, she was married last year, but unfortunately she has never met the right person.
Almost none of the people in the court and the Sun family have ever mentioned their relatives, although Lord Sun has also hinted at it, but no one pays attention to it.
For this reason, Miss Sun was so angry in private that she almost fainted.
If the woman is not engaged after the marriage, it will definitely attract gossip, although she is favored at home, but she cannot affect the reputation of her family.
So she has always wanted to get married as soon as possible and no longer be ridiculed by those people.
After Miss Sun returned, his father came the next day in person.
"I don't know if Lord Sun came here for the affairs of the court, or if he had other intentions?" When Jiang Zhan saw his eyes, he guessed that he was here for his daughter's business.
"It's not a secret, my daughter thinks that the new champion is only eight buckets, and I admire him very much, so I specially came to ask Lord Jiang, does the emperor have any arrangements for him?" He's not like his daughter.
Miss Sun values his character and appearance more, while Master Sun pays more attention to his future.
If there is no accident, the other party is likely to become his son-in-law.
For his career, Master Sun is naturally very concerned.
"We don't know about this matter, if you want to know, you can go and find out the emperor's tone." Xue Yao avoided this question without a trace.
Although she felt that the other party asked these questions for the sake of her daughter's future, they asked the wrong person.
The emperor's plan is not something they can discuss in private.
"Your Majesty hasn't decided yet?" Master Sun frowned.
"I'm a woman, I don't understand the affairs of the court, and Ah Zhan hasn't heard His Majesty mention it, so Your Majesty should still consider this matter." Xue Yao didn't want things to be too complicated.
"Master Sun, you dragged me to find out about the champion's family history, I have already told you all about the situation, as for whether you want to marry him or not, it still depends on your own decision." Jiang Zhan followed Xue Yao's words and said a few perfunctory words.
Since they want a son-in-law with an extremely outstanding identity and talent, they should plan it themselves.
Jiang Zhan was not obliged to tell him anything, after all, he was not the matchmaker between them.
"I'm sorry Lord Jiang, Xia Guan didn't mean anything else, he just wanted to get a quick son-in-law by the dragon." He explained.
"If Your Majesty has a decision, it will definitely be announced in the court." After Jiang Zhan sent their father and daughter away, his face sank suddenly.
"This Lord Sun is a bit snobbish, no wonder Miss Sun's eyes are above the top." The champion is not only handsome, but also won the champion in his early twenties, and he must have a bright future.
"The emperor has decided to send the champion to the remote northland and temporarily serve as the county magistrate for three years." At this time, Jiang Zhan directly said the emperor's plan.
"You should have known about this matter early on, did the emperor call you into the palace that day, just for this matter?" Xue Yao's eyes flashed.
"That's right, I really can't hide anything from Yao'er." He didn't say anything when he came back, he just didn't think it was necessary.
After all, the champion is a stranger to them.
"If the Sun family knows about this, I'm afraid there will be twists and turns in this marriage." Xue Yao heard their thoughts from their tones.
As for the few people who went to Sun's house to propose marriage, I think they had already known what Master Sun was, so they didn't want to be in-laws with him.
Most of the interests of people who are related by marriage in the capital are tied together.
Although the new champion is famous, he has no real power, if he can stay in the capital, with the power of the Sun family, he can still help one or two.
By then, he should soon be able to make a name for himself in the DPRK.
"We just helped investigate some things, and didn't pass on the news, so we don't have to pay attention to what their Sun family decides." In fact, the new champion is just a little arrogant, if he is a capable person, he will definitely be able to return to Beijing after three years.
The capital needs young and capable officials.
Xue Yao also felt that she had done her best, and as for the future, it had nothing to do with their husband and wife.
At most, if the two are really together, they will give a generous gift.
A few days later, the emperor announced the departure and stay of those people in the court, except for the new champion, the others stayed in the capital.
Although the new champion felt that this result was very unexpected, he also understood the current situation, although the Northland is remote, it is also an easy place to make achievements.
Although the others stayed, they only edited some things in the Hanlin Academy, and there was no chance of meritorious service.
Three years from now, perhaps the position of these people will not change.
So he directly received the order and thanked him, without the slightest reluctance at all.
His parents died, and the family's property had already been transferred to Qianzhuang, and as for the fields, he rented them to the people of the same village, and the rent was very low.
Now he has no worries, and it is the same wherever he goes......
However, before the new champion set off, Miss Sun found Xue Yao again.
"Miss Sun, what do you want to buy this time?" Xue Yao has been seven months old, but because she has been thin, she can see it at a glance from behind.
"Mrs. Jiang, I want you to help me again." She really couldn't find anyone, otherwise she wouldn't want to bother Xue Yao.
After all, she is pregnant, and some things are better not to numb her.
"Although Miss Su said something, whether she can help or not depends on whether the matter is serious." Xue Yao didn't agree immediately.
"Actually, I didn't come here this time." When she saw Xue Yao's belly, she didn't want to hide it from her.
In the final analysis, this matter is also his responsibility.
"What does Master Sun want to do from the people's women." Xue Yao's eyes flashed.
"When my father learned that he was going to such a far place, he couldn't bear to let me marry and endure hardships, so he came to discuss with you." The woman didn't hide her purpose, and said it very calmly.
"Neither Ah Zhan nor I have the right to speak in this matter, everything must be left to the emperor." Xue Yao politely refused.
"Mrs. Jiang, can you please intercede for him?" This opportunity is so rare.
The first time she was tempted, she was naturally reluctant to let this marriage go wrong, but her father's attitude was very tenacious.
For the sake of her own happiness, she can only leave everything behind temporarily.
"I really can't control this matter, not to mention that I think it's good for him to go through it." Xue Yao tried her best to persuade her to accept this reality.
The decision was made by the emperor, let alone her, even Jiang Zhan couldn't stop it, not to mention that the matter itself was proposed by Jiang Zhan.
She didn't want the Sun family to do this, and deliberately lowered her anger to please others, this was not her way of doing things.
