At the end of the court examination, Lin You's three grades were not bad, in the middle and upper class, to Lin Qingwan's surprise, Li Feng's ranking in the court examination was higher than them. ~with~dream~small~say~щ~suimеng~lā

However, if you think about it, you can understand that the court examination pays more attention to the ability to handle government affairs, and Li Feng has been a clerk in the government for fifteen years, so he naturally knows more than Lin You.

Such good results made Ren Shangshu more confident to keep him.

Li Feng was directly referred to the Ministry of Industry, and other departments began to recruit new members.

Of course, Jinshi can also choose, and only those who have no intention of staying in the capital and who are not selected by the six departments will be sent to the place.

The number of people who stay in the capital is limited every year, after all, these officials are actually needed more in the local area than in the capital.

Therefore, if you want to stay in the capital, you will start to ask for someone before the court examination starts, and Shang Ping is naturally the same.

Staying in the capital and going out are completely different ways to be promoted.

Of course, he hopes that his son will stay in the capital, and he can't enter a cold department like the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites like him.

Of course, although the military department was very important, he didn't think about letting his son go, so he aimed at the household department and the official department, as well as the criminal department.

It's a pity that I didn't get an exact reply after looking for several colleagues in a row, just as Shang Mingjie thought, the Shang family was not very comfortable in the capital.

Seeing that the court examination was over, and his son was still missing, Shang Ping thought about whether to contact his brother-in-law, after all, although the Zhao family was not in the capital, they had a hot fight with several officials in the court, and he was also related to the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites.

Just as he was thinking about it, his son came back and told him, "Father, my son has taken over the appointment of the Ministry of War, and he will be in the Ministry of War in the near future, so you don't have to run for your son." ”

Shang Ping's eyes couldn't help but widen, "Who arranged you to go to the military department?" ”

"It was the son who applied for it himself," Shang Mingjie said with a flat face: "Father, the military department is not weak in the six departments, and the son is also interested in it, and they are short of people, which is just right." ”

"Where's the right fit?" Shang Ping glared and said, "You know where the military headquarters is, you can go inside......"

"My son knows," Shang Mingjie raised his head and said, "Father, I have already passed the Jinshi examination, how can I not know what the responsibilities of the Sixth Department are?" ”

Shang Ping choked, then remembered that Shang Mingjie was no longer a child, he was also a famous person, he took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his chest and said: "But the military department often has to transfer to the front line, it is too dangerous, Mingjie, your mother and I only have one son!" ”

Shang Mingjie comforted him and said: "Father, don't worry, I will work hard to practice martial arts to protect myself, and I have already taken over the order, can my father still go back for his son?" ”

Of course not, Shang Ping has been cautious for twenty years, and timidity has been engraved into his bones, if Shang Mingjie doesn't take over, he can still think of a way, and now that he has taken over, he doesn't dare to go to the military department to go back on his word.

Sensing his son's behavior of cutting first and then playing, Shang Ping sat on the chair sullenly and did not speak.

Shang Mingjie sighed, look, his father is so bold, but why would such a timid person dare to target Aunt Lin?

He doesn't know what kind of reputation and reputation Aunt Lin has in Jiangnan now?

Even a wise person like Mr. him has to retreat when he encounters Aunt Lin.

Seeing that his father didn't speak, Shang Mingjie acquiesced to him, so he bowed and retreated.

Shang Mingjie's side is going well, and Lin You is even simpler.

The reason why his ranking is so high is that the emperor is grateful to Lin Qingwan for donating food to support Hongzhou, and he has the heart to show kindness; The second is that the examiners also take care of the friendship of the Lin family, and give Lin Qingwan face, since they have walked fifty steps, they naturally don't mind walking a hundred steps.

Therefore, Lin Qingwan showed a little meaning, and the officials gave Lin You an appointment order, which was faster than Shang Mingjie received.

The only thing that is difficult to do is Lu Yu, because the household department is the department with the most oil and water, and most of the Jinshi in the department want to enter, your Lu family has a relationship, and my family is not bad.

Your Lu Yu's ranking is not low, but I am higher than you, because there are too many applicants, and the household department is embarrassed for a while.

In the end, it was the fourth prince who waved his hand and said: "Choose the right one first, and then pay attention to family history." ”

The four princes have all ordered, and Zuo Shilang, who was born in a poor family, will naturally not disobey, first pick out the people who are suitable for the household department from the court examination, and then pick the family background from it.

He really wanted to pick a few more cold doors, but there were only two of them who were really suitable for the household department among so many cold door jinshi papers.

In the final analysis, because of lack of resources, their abilities are not as good as those children of the family.

Zuo Shilang put the two cold doors aside first, and then selected the remaining Jinshi, after thinking about it, he handed over the decision-making power to the four princes, "Your Highness, the minister has already chosen two people, and three more need to be selected, so you see ......"

The fourth prince flipped through it, picked out three scrolls, and then swept Lu Yu's name, thought about it, and asked by his name: "This person is from Suzhou?" The name is a little familiar, have I seen it? ”

Zuo Shilang glanced at it and said with a smile: "Your Highness forgot, Your Majesty summoned this person, and he and the nephew of Lord Lin discovered the matter of Hongzhou. ”

He thought for a while and said: "The Suzhou Lu clan and the Lu Duhu clan are related, although they are two branches, they are the same clan. ”

As soon as he said this, the fourth prince remembered it, he took out Lu Yu's scroll and looked at it, and said, "It's not bad." ”

He put his scroll into three copies and handed it to Zuo Shilang, and said, "Just them." ”

Zuo Shilang took it, and his heart couldn't help but move, the fourth prince is this to see whose face Lu Yu is taking? Or all three?

Zuo Shilang quietly glanced at the four princes, although the four princes are not the eldest or the youngest, but they are virtuous, at least for now, he is much stronger than the second prince.

The four princes didn't know what Zuo Shilang was thinking, and after choosing a good person, he went out of the imperial city.

Lin Qingwan has already set a date to leave, he has to meet her, since the two have cooperated, they always have to talk about some matters.

In fact, at present, it seems that Lin Qingwan can give him limited help, far less than Zhong Ruying, but he has a feeling in his heart that he can't ignore her.

He chooses to trust his feelings.

The county lord's mansion was packing up, they didn't bring many things, but there were a lot of things to bring back, and Lin Qingwan had to leave some people to guard the county lord's mansion.

Since I have set foot in the capital, I am afraid that I will come back often in the future, so the place where I live should still be well maintained.

The fourth prince came in all the way, and when he saw the things that the people moved out, he couldn't help but look at Lin Qingwan in surprise, "Sister, is this planning to move all the things from the house?" Will I always go back to Beijing in the future? ”

"Even if you come back, you don't need these things," Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "Actually, there are few things we bought ourselves, most of them are sent by others, and it will be dusty if we stay here, so it is better to bring them back." ”

Lin Qingwan led the four princes to the back garden and said with a smile: "The front is busy, let's sit in the garden." ”

The fourth prince bowed his head and asked with a smile, "When will you enter the palace to say goodbye to your father and queen mother?" ”

Lin Qingwan calculated the time, "The day after tomorrow, I will hand the sign to the palace tomorrow." ”

"Then you have to go early, my father and mother are estimated to have a meal," the fourth prince paused and said: "Actually, this time my father asked me to ask you something, my sister's donation of grain and grass has not yet been rewarded." ”

Lin Qingwan smiled, "That's what I should do, but I misunderstood Your Majesty first, and I hope Your Majesty won't be angry." ”

"Where is my father such a stingy person?" The fourth prince said with a smile: "Sister, let's make a wish, you also know that my father has always rewarded and punished clearly, but if you have merit but don't reward it, my father will definitely be unhappy." ”

The emperor had mentioned several times in public that he wanted to give Lin Qingwan a reward, but Lin Qingwan didn't ask for it, and her current position was indeed difficult to seal again.

Reward?

Oh, the emperor is too poor to come up with that much money.

Appreciating the fields?

Jue Tian under her name is almost the same as the princess, and the reward will be over the eldest princess, and the emperor cares about his daughter, and he doesn't want the children under him to have a conflict because of this, so he can't do it.

It's a pity that she is not a man, otherwise she can be rewarded as an official.

Seeing that the people were leaving, and the people hadn't been rewarded yet, the emperor couldn't help but show some tone when he was in the harem, and wanted to ask the queen to help ask.

But Lin Qingwan didn't enter the palace these days, and the four princes shared their worries for the emperor.

Lin Qingwan thought about it, she really didn't need anything now.

But in the future, she paused and said: "Your Highness also knows that the Lin family doesn't have much property now, and the Juetian under the name of Yubin and I is the Lin family's biggest income." But this Juetian and Yubin will be taken back after a hundred years, and I am afraid that I will not be able to leave much for the children at that time, if Your Majesty intends to reward it, it is better to reward me with two more generations of this Juetian, so that they can accumulate more things. ”

The fourth prince was stunned when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, if my sister has a child in the future, not only Juetian, but also the title can be inherited." ”

The children of the county lord are the county lord and the county man, and they also have lords.

Lin Qingwan twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Your Highness misunderstood, I have no intention of remarrying, the child I am talking about is Yubin's child." ”

"Hey, will her child be surnamed Lin in the future?"

Lin Qingwan didn't speak.

The fourth prince glared slightly, "This, the county lord is recruiting~~"

It's not impossible, but the son-in-law who can be recruited is generally not very good.

Lin Qingwan didn't nod or refute, but said, "Then please ask Your Highness to help me make a point or two in front of Your Majesty." ”

Thinking of the farm that is now run so well by her, Lin Qingwan was a little reluctant to say: "Actually, if Your Majesty allows it, it is okay for the Lin family to pay for this jue land in a hundred years." ”..

It's a bit of a big deal.

The fourth prince said solemnly: "Sister, don't worry, I can probe my father's tone." ”

Lin Qingwan nodded and smiled: "I'm not in a hurry, after all, I'm still young, but people who don't have long-term worries must have near-term worries, and Yubin doesn't have a brother, so I can't help but think more." ”

"My sister is too tired of this heart," the fourth prince smiled, and asked about Jiangnan, Lin Jiang is dead, I don't know how much control over Jiangnan is left?

Lin Qingwan smiled slightly and told the fourth prince that now the Jiangnan Observation Envoy is Lin Jiang's person, and there are officials in all parts of Jiangnan such as Yangzhou Thorn History who have received the favor of the Lin family, or have been promoted by Lin Jiang.

In short, the Lin family is still very famous in Jiangnan from the officialdom alone.
