Chapter 647: A Hot Position
Hou Xiaoliang moved a few more steps out. Oh, my mother-in-law, you dare to say it! The whole Da Ming, after saying that the master is a little white face, you are the only one who can survive the whole body. Don't listen to the indecency, lest the master be embarrassed and angry, and he is reluctant to touch a finger of the future mistress, and turn around to see him angry with him.
"Hey, hey! I'm kidding you too! You say, our industries combined, looking at the entire capital, who dares to compete with me? After that, did I have to count the money every day until my hands cramped? Yu Xiaocao suddenly felt a sense of pride as the richest woman in the capital.
"How tired is counting money? Ye sent a few people over for you, let them count, and you watched from the sidelines! Zhu Junyang replied very domineeringly, rubbing his hand gently on the little girl's soft and shiny black hair, enjoying the feeling of high-end satin.
"Hee-hee!" Yu Xiaocao, a fan of small wealth, snickered, like a little squirrel that had eaten a pine cone, cute and naughty. Zhu Junyang loves and hates, who is this ghost horse elf? Uncle Yu and Aunt Yu are both honest people, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are also responsible, and the brother-in-law is quite stable at a young age. Just this girl, the elf is weird, and it hurts to the bones.
Zhu Junyang stayed in Yufu until the willows on the moon before reluctantly leaving. Coming out of Yufu, he took Hou Xiaoliang and went straight to the city gate. Although he has never paid attention to other people's criticism, he is now a person who has a daughter-in-law soon, and he can't let his daughter-in-law worry about him, and he has to get by in everything. He is not ready to bear the charge of returning to Beijing without permission!
The army returned to Beijing three days later. When the good news from the northwest came, the whole capital was shaken and cheered. As the general of Zhenxi, the king of Yangjun is also rumored to be the "god of war". In just one year, the traitors in the northwest have been beaten to the point that they cannot raise their heads, and there will be no worries about the border in the northwest in the next few decades. Peace, no matter what the era, is what the common people look forward to.
Many ordinary people, in order to see the demeanor of the "God of War", came to the suburbs of Beijing early to wait. Three miles outside the capital, the Imperial Forest Army has been put under martial law. Because the emperor personally led hundreds of civil and military officials to welcome the victorious return of the army.
On the first day, Xiaocao was summoned to the palace. In the inner study, Zhu Junfan was checking the homework of His Royal Highness the Prince. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a twelve-year-old young man, and his various homework has been praised by the princes, and he is becoming more and more like a future prince.
In the past few years in the palace, although there have been a few little princes and princesses, the eldest little prince is eight years old from the prince, and he is still a little milk baby of three or four years old. When they are older and qualified, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is almost an adult, and no one can go past him! Come to think of it, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not do anything disobedient and deceitful to the king, his position will be very stable. The chaos of the prince seizing the heir will not happen to the current prince.
"Lord Yu!" Seeing Xiaocao come in, Zhu Hanwen put down the pen in his hand and smiled at her.
"Wechen has seen the emperor, His Royal Highness the Prince!" Yu Xiaocao was carrying the food box in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and was about to bow on his knees, but was stopped by the emperor.
"Okay, don't engage in these vain heads, no courtesy, give a seat!" When Zhu Junfan faced this fellow traveler, he never paid attention to any red tape. Pointing to the food box in her hand, "Yo! It's hard for you to still think about me, and bring a gift! If I hadn't summoned you, you wouldn't be ready to show up for the rest of your life, would you? I can't see you when I go to court, so forget it. I gave you a pass to enter and leave the palace, did you use it as an ornament? ”
Your Majesty, what do you mean by this slightly complaining tone? Yu Xiaocao cast his puzzled gaze to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the side, and found that he was also confused in his gaze with himself.
"Your Majesty, with the official position of a micro-minister, it is not at the level of the previous dynasty." Yu Xiaocao reminded in a whisper.
Zhu Junfan snorted and said, "What? Do you think you're too small? Unexpectedly, you are still an official fan chasing fame and fortune. ”
Yu Xiaocao seriously suspected that the emperor had been crossed by someone's soul again, why was he so abnormal today? Why does she think that the emperor is coquettish to her? Oh my god, I'm panicking!
Zhu Hanwen looked at his father and blinked a few times. If it weren't for the fact that Lord Yu had already married his cousin, he really couldn't help but suspect that his father had taken a fancy to Lord Yu! Otherwise, what does this complaining expression and casual tone mean?
He turned his gaze to Yu Xiaocao, looked at it carefully a few times, and came to the conclusion: Lord Yu has become more and more successful in the past two years. Not to mention anything else, the blow bomb alone can be broken, which is comparable to the delicate and white skin of a shelled egg, which throws off a lot of the ladies in Beijing. What's more, those big smart and clear eyes can simply penetrate people's hearts.
Zhu Hanwen was terrified in his heart, retracted his gaze, and looked at his father worriedly: Father, you don't really have any thoughts about Lord Yu that you shouldn't have, right? Don't! Uncle Yang Huang has just made a great achievement, and his military achievements are great, can you rob his daughter-in-law! In case Uncle Yang Huang is angry at the crown, there are really few people in our capital who can stop him......
Father, father, you are wise, but don't leave the infamy of robbing the wife of a courtier! I have to say, His Royal Highness the Prince, you have over-supplemented your brain!
Zhu Hanwen suddenly found that his father's gaze was in contact with him, and he immediately said in disguise: "Father, over the years, the adults have made outstanding achievements, worked hard, and complained, but the position has always been the agricultural official of the sixth grade, and the son thinks it is ...... Isn't it time for a change? ”
Zhu Junfan glanced at his son with a little appreciation, he has done so hard to cultivate this successor over the years, just thinking that he can take over his son when he is twenty years old. At that time, he took the queen on a tour of the mountains and rivers and went abroad to see. How chic and how comfortable?
"Emperor, clear rewards and punishments are the actions of the Ming monarch. In your opinion, what position should Yu be promoted? "It's not that Zhu Junfan didn't want to promote this subordinate general, but after all, there is no precedent, and he has just been given the honor of the county lord, so he delayed it.
Zhu Hanwen thought for a while, and said sternly: "When Erchen studied history with Taifu, when he saw the Qin Dynasty, he had the position of 'governing Su internal history'. Erchen thinks that the duties of Lord Yu are in line with the position of governing Su Neishi......"
"What does the emperor mean...... Increase the post of governing the internal history of Su in the household department? How many official residences are there? Zhu Junfan was thinking about "governing the internal history of Su", what the hell? How did you not know? However, in order to maintain his majesty and dignity in front of the emperor, he pretended to be unfathomable.
"Father, isn't Lord Yu's official position at this time, 'Agricultural Officer', also temporarily added by you? Over the years, Yu Daren has not only planted Western species of corn, but also developed and cultivated high-yield winter wheat, and greenhouse vegetables have enriched the winter table. This year, the rice grown in the experimental field has also achieved gratifying results. If several merits are added together, how can you have to be promoted to three levels in a row, right? Erchen thought that it had to be at least the fourth grade or above. Otherwise, it would be too bad to treat Lord Yu. Zhu Hanwen was close to Yu Xiaocao because of the bits and pieces of his childhood, so he naturally wanted to stand in her position and seek benefits for her.
But Yu Xiaocao had no intention of getting promoted and raised. No matter in her past life or present life, she has never thought about progressing, except for her extraordinary dedication to making money, other fame and fortune are fleeting for her. She is very satisfied with the status quo and has no intention of wanting to be promoted. Because she knows that the higher the position, the greater the power, and the heavier the responsibility. The most important reason for her to avoid it is that the Beijing officials above the fifth rank have to go to the court. It's scary to think about going out before dawn!
"That ......" Yu Xiaocao saw that he was about to settle his position without speaking, and hurriedly interrupted the discussion between father and son with great interest, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen's current official position is already very satisfied." You don't need to go up again, do you? ”
"How's that going to work!" Father and son spoke in unison. Zhu Junfan glared at the little fellow with hatred, and said, "I am a Ming monarch, a meritorious minister, and I will definitely get the reward I deserve." You sit honestly, don't get mixed up! ”
Yu Xiaocao hurriedly said: "Actually, the reward does not necessarily need to be promoted and added!" Wouldn't it be nice to appreciate something else, something practical, such as gold, silver, jewelry, silk or something? ”
Zhu Junfan grinned and suddenly asked, "Your business is okay recently?" Medicinal Diet Workshop and Hua Xiangrong, didn't you encounter any trouble, right? ”
"No? It's all good! Yu Xiaocao was a little confused, staring at the emperor with question marks in his eyes, I don't know what he meant by saying this?
"Since business is good, you are not short of money, right? Why did you fall into the eyes of money and not get out? The riches I have given you are not a drop in the bucket compared to the wealth in your hands. Are you still short of money? How can there be glory by adding officials to knighthood? ”
Zhu Junfan glared at her indignantly, and said in his heart: The family in your girl's hands is much more than my small treasury, and you still want to rub my silver flowers, and your conscience is very bad.
Yu Xiaocao still has to make a final struggle: "But...... I'm a girl, what do I want to do in such a high position? I'm just a farmer, and I can do the trick of pickled vegetables with one hand, if I want culture or culture, if I want technology but not technology, I can't be a 'white bone essence'! ”
"If you know how to farm, that's enough!!' Zhisu Neishi's is in charge of farming! Okay, why are you so stubborn? I gave you a promotion, and I have to beg you? Don't talk nonsense, I'm annoying! ”
Zhu Junfan felt strange and aggrieved, others sharpened their heads, and they were promoted to make a fortune, this girl is good, the opportunity to be promoted to the post was sent to her, and she had to push it out. Dare to love his official position is a hot potato? My little heart has been hit by tens of thousands of points, no, I need food to soothe.
"What do you have in your hand? Always holding it in your hand, aren't you tired? Zhu Junfan had been staring at the food box for a long time. Zhu Hanwen also looked at it with a sigh, the fragrance in it had already hooked the gluttonous worms in his stomach, and he was embarrassed to show it because his father was in front of him.
