I don't know if Fang Jinglan has the ability to anticipate things like a god, or if he has first-class vision, within a few days, Zhili wrote to him that he had passed the assessment of Lord Zuo this time, stayed in Hanlin, and was awarded the editor. Zhili officially became Hanlin, although he did not have a real position, but he finally officially entered Hanlin, which was also a happy event for the other party's family.

The civil official faction was reused by Zuo Yingzheng, but the military attache faction, the military department Shangshu was old and mediocre and could no longer take on this important responsibility, and had submitted a request to the emperor to advise him.

Again, General Fu Lao entered Beijing to face the saint, was praised by the emperor, and was crowned as the general of Zuozhuguo, the official worshiped a product, and gave the house and the grange, and the rest of the rewards are countless. The rest of the border army generals also had their own rewards and promotions, and Zhiyi, cough cough---- Ruqing asked the old lady with a cheeky face, "What kind of official position is this light car?" "Please forgive her for being lonely, she has only heard of any generals, governors, commanders-in-chief, commanders and other military generals, and this light car governor really can't find Bei'er.

The old lady was in a good mood today, and she was not impatient with Ruqing's idiot question, and explained carefully, "It's just a meritorious officer, a kind of honorary title, and there is no real position, but it has more Dai Lu and a good reputation." ”

Ruqing didn't seem to understand when she heard it, and asked again: "What is the actual title of the second brother?" ”

"Chief Officer."

"Uh--- what rank is this chief officer?" Sounds like a big deal.

The old lady glanced at her, as if she was impatient, "The chief officer has no rank. The commander-in-chief of the troops guarding the border areas of our dynasty has a general soldier and a deputy chief soldier, and there is no fixed number. The chief soldier was originally the name of the dispatch, no grade, in case of war, the general soldier Pei will be printed to fight, and the matter will be returned, in the Qingyuan period, it will gradually become a resident military attaché. There is no definite number of soldiers, staff, or rank. ”

Ruqing didn't seem to understand when she heard it, "Then, how many officials are there?" ”

The old lady explained in detail: "The chief military officer of the general town army is a regular soldier, and he is the highest military attache in charge of the military affairs of a province (or region). The deputy commander-in-chief led 3,000 as odd soldiers, the guerrillas divided 3,000 as guerrillas, and the generals divided into various eastern and western strategies as reinforcements. Under the general army, there are generals, guerrillas, capital divisions, thousand generals, hundred generals, and generals. ”

Although it is not explicitly stated, above the generals, the generals are from the third grade, and Zhiyi, the temporary chief officer, can command more than 10,000 people, which is equivalent to the strength of a modern division.

Knowing that Zhiyi would go home to visit his father, Fang Jinglan was excited, and had ordered the Li family to prepare for him to pick up the wind and wash the dust, and the Jinzhu Courtyard was cleaned inside and out, and all the tricks were on, Ruqing counted the purchase list submitted by the mother-in-law who was responsible for the purchase one by one, and couldn't help but say, it is the national mourning period, avoid meat, these big fish and big meat, are not afraid of being caught in the little debate?

The old lady glanced lightly and said lightly: "This noble daughter-in-law has been following me for many years, and she knows that there is a name for herself here, so it is okay to be careful." Again, this is just Qizhou City, far from the capital, the new emperor is busy grasping the prestige of the power tree, how can he care about this? ”

Ruqing didn't agree, "But those officials don't think so?" "Those officials, especially the officials, although their official positions are low, they are jealous and hateful, and they love to catch the little debaters of the powerful in Beijing, once they are caught, they will not give up. It's not that these officials are really honest and dedicated to the court, but the magnates eat big fish and meat all day long, but they can only drink soup, who called Emperor Taizu stingy, those ministers' Fenglu are extremely low, and it is extremely difficult to feed a family, and Emperor Taizu also stipulated that the senior members of the fourth rank in the court are not allowed to do business, and these officials will not do business, and they disdain farming, they will only shake their pens, of course, they are jealous of those magnates, while eating the emperor's grain and paying tribute, while doing business and earning a lot of money, Fat and oily? And they have to maintain an image of incorruptibility-----

The old lady smiled, "Your Lao Tzu is not a powerful person of the imperial family, nor is he a great official, and he is far away in Qizhou City, where can they manage it?" Besides, these fishy meats are all bought in the Zhuangzi and will be shipped back at night. ”

Ruqing nodded, this is called a policy on the top, and a countermeasure on the bottom!

Soon, when Ruqing counted with her fingers until the sixth day, Zhiyi finally returned home.

If it weren't for the national mourning period, it is estimated that Fang Jinglan would invite the troupe to sing in turn, but unfortunately, when he touched the national mourning period, he had to be low-key and low-key, he didn't dare to feast guests, he didn't dare to put on a banquet, so he had to secretly set up a few large tables in the inner courtyard for his family to sit and enjoy.

After the baptism of blood and rain on the battlefield, and after four long years of changes, Datong's border wall, which is full of solemnity and war, has already cast Zhiyi from a young man into a mighty man.

Ruqing was the first to jump in front of Zhiyi and shouted excitedly: "Second brother." ”

When Zhiyi, who was dressed in black, looked at Ruqing, he said after a while: "It turned out to be the fourth sister, I haven't seen her for a few years, and she has grown so tall." Seeing Ruqing combing her lovely double buns, a pair of big black and white eyes under her bangs, flashing bright starlight, as if attracted by this pair of eyes like midnight, Zhiyi couldn't help but say again: "Has it been a headache for my grandmother over the years?" ”

Ruqing nodded, a pair of big eyes staring at Zhiyi Gu Tong's face, "My sister has always been well-behaved and sensible, and everyone loves her, grandma must love me." It's you, the second brother, who has grown taller and stronger, but has grown darker. Not as handsome as before, but more and more powerful. ”

Zhiyi Wan'er couldn't help touching her soft black hair, and smiled faintly, "Yes, it's dark." It's the fourth sister, but it's so bright. ”

Ruqing grinned, "That's because my grandmother raised me well." Seeing that Fang Jinglan Li and the others had already strode over to this side, they hurriedly stepped aside, "Daddy is here." ”

Fang Jinglan hugged his son's shoulder, looked at it carefully, smiled with relief, and said without paying attention: "It's finally back---- it's good to come back, it's good to come back." Ruqing thought to herself, Dad can speak so well, and he is probably too excited to say just a few words at this time, so he can't find anything to say.

On the contrary, it is the Li family, but he asks for warmth, as if the stepmother cares about the kindness and love of her stepson.

Rushan, who lifted the ban on footing, lost a lot of weight, but he still did not hide the arrogance on his body, and he had not seen Zhiyi for four years, as if there was no separation, and said very enthusiastically: "I haven't seen you for four years, and my brother is becoming more and more heroic." The second brother's return to the house this time is the blessing of our house, and it is also the blessing of the sister, and the younger sister will definitely pay a few more cups to the second brother to comfort the brother and sister who have been empty for many years. ”

Rumei glared at Rushan angrily, secretly scolding her for her hypocrisy and clever words, but she couldn't find any good words when she searched her stomach, and finally became wise in a hurry, and said: "The second brother is finally back, and I think about my sister so hard." She wanted to follow Li's request and instructions and run to Zhiyi's arms to cry bitterly, but Zhiyi still had the same coffin face for thousands of years, and it was even more chilly than before, so she had to cancel the original plan, and just twisted the veil and cried vigorously.

It's a pity that her crying skills are the same as her mother's, and after howling a few times, she feels that her skills are not as good as others, so she automatically silences.

Zhilian arched his hand to Zhiyi, and said in a whisper, "The second brother is finally back, I haven't seen you for many years, the second brother has already made this achievement, and the younger brother congratulates the second brother first." Secretly comparing himself with Zhiyi's achievements over the years, Zhilian lowered his head, his voice was depressed, and there was no longer a sound.

Zhiyi saw that the old father who had not seen him for many years looked cold, but for this brother-in-law, he had a slightly good-looking face, he looked at Zhilian deeply, and said lightly: "You and I have taken different paths, my fame is to kill the generals with flesh and blood, but your fame has to rely on the pen." I believe that your pen is good, and you will not be inferior to me. ”

Zhilian raised his head suddenly, looked at Zhiyi's cold eyes, and wondered in his heart, was he sarcastic, or was he comforting himself?

Fang Jinglan thought that his two sons had achieved such achievements, but he was partial to Zhilian but made him break his heart, and when he heard the words of righteousness, he couldn't help but snort coldly, and said: "Your third brother has become less and less motivated in recent years, and he only knows how to indulge in lust and not do his job. Last year, he participated in the Autumn Festival, but he was not angry, and his name fell to Sun Shan. If you wait for the next scientific expedition, you will have to stay up for a few more years. If you don't want to make progress again, you will simply take off your clothes and change your velvet clothes to go to the battlefield with you, and you will be clean when you die. ”

Zhilian was scolded so much that he couldn't raise his head more and more, and Zhiyi said: "Father loves to talk angry again." ”

Of course, what Fang Jinglan said was just angry words, but thinking that he had been so angry that he had been so angry by the ridiculous things that Zhilian had done in the past few years, he was even more angry when he saw him looking sluggish, and said hatefully: "If you don't do your job again, I will definitely drive you out of the house." I don't think I gave birth to your son. ”

Zhilian's head hangs even lower.

Ruqing looked at him with some sympathy, this third brother, she doesn't have a good image, but she doesn't have any too bad prejudices, and she has a mother like Aunt Zhang who wants her son Jackie Chan to go crazy, and it is indeed his disaster and pressure.

However, with such a high-pressure mother, and a father who pursues not to beat up and become an adult, Zhilian's life is indeed difficult, he can't be like modern children, he can rise up and resist or something, here, he has no choice but to endure it, and even his mouth will be crowned with the crime of unfilial piety.

Rushan couldn't stand Rumei's gloating appearance, and couldn't help but say: "Daddy, this autumn is not as good as my brother, and I can't blame my brother for it, who told that Qinxiang to take the bad things to eat with my brother, my brother is weak when he stays up late studying, how can he withstand it, the doctor has also seen it, and the soup that Qinxiang gave my brother to eat actually put croton." Then a pair of beautiful eyes snatched Li and Rumei in a limited way.

Rumei turned her face away disdainfully, Li covered her lips with an embroidered handkerchief, and said lightly: "That celery is really hateful, she is so careless, but don't be annoyed by the good girl, I have dealt with that girl fiercely." No matter how unwilling he is, he can only blame God for making people. However, if it weren't for Zhilian fooling around with that girl late at night on the first night of the exam, how could the girl be so tired that she couldn't even tell the difference between croton and soybean? ”

Rushan stagnated, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Mrs. has shirked the responsibility completely, but who doesn't know that Qin Xiang's girl was assigned to my second brother's room by Mrs.?" ”

Li's eyebrows were upside down, and he was about to attack, but Ran Rumei took the first step to speak, "I don't like to hear what the second sister says, the celery incense was bought by the wife from someone outside, and seeing that the machine is well-behaved, it was transferred to the third brother's room for him to call, but who knows, the third brother called someone to the bed?" ”

Rushan was so angry that his face turned blue, and he was about to retort with a sneer, but Fang Jinglan yelled, "Enough, shut up for me." He glared at Rumei and shouted: "How did your father teach you to talk like this at such a young age?" I usually don't see you being sven and showing off your knowledge, but you are talking vulgar nonsense. Then he turned around and glared at Rushan, "You have the most things to do in the house, and this is unfair for a while, and there is injustice for a while, and the whole house has to revolve around you, so you can be comfortable?" Think about the shameless things you did before, you still have the face to make a fuss in front of me? ”

Rumei Rushan was scolded and unconvinced, but she didn't dare to squeak anymore and tore each other with her eyes.
