The political sense of smell is very much in line with evolution.

Hu has been away from Beijing for many years, but she was a clever girl back then, and now she is only a stupid woman.

What's more, she hasn't actually touched the real center of power, so she can only speculate.

"It's a shame that you're in business, why don't you understand the truth that 'scarcity is expensive'. In previous years, those female officials were all officials and dependents who didn't stand out much, or widows who had lost their husbands and had no mother's family, and they fought for a future. ”

She used her experience in fighting in a small portal house to speculate on the nobles of the high family.

This is no different from what the women think, "Donggong Niangniang bakes flatbread, Xigong Niangniang rolls green onions".

Hu Shi used the solitary case of his third daughter to argue, but he felt that it was very appropriate.

"In other words, those real nobles don't say that they are married, or they are not married, and I am afraid that they will not look down on them."

Hu rubbed the teacup and looked down at his own reflection in the water.

"This year, the saint is gracious, the female official election, the merchants and the common people are all involved, if you are a lady of the official family who is not outstanding, you have the heart to go, and the family will definitely stop you. If you win, it's okay to say, but what if you don't? It was the face of the father and brother who lost it.

"Not to mention those outstanding concubines, if they press the concubines over...... She can live in the palace for the rest of her life, but what about her own aunt? ”

Hu is speculating about others with his own thinking again.

It is said that ancient people had three wives and four concubines, but in this regard, there are actually very strict restrictions.

For example, in this dynasty, although officials can marry concubines, they must be from a family with a title, and the number of people is determined according to the title, there are standards and quotas, and they can only marry after the original match has not been released for many years.

Like Yunxian County Ling An Bihuai, there are original wives and daughters, but they don't meet the standards for marrying concubines. Not to mention inspecting the imperial history, even if it is Zhen Rong in the second room of the Zhen family, he will sue him with his talent and fame, and he will sue one by one.

Zhen Zhiwen knows the relevant policies, and there are famous sons and nephews in the family, so it stands to reason that there is no need to be afraid of An Bihuai seriously.

If the other party really stumbles on himself, he only needs to ask his nephew to take the paper and sue Xuezheng, and Ambihuai's black gauze hat will have to be taken off.

The reason why I didn't do it is because the conflict between the two families is really a quarrel between children, and there is no need to go online.

In the adult world, it is still necessary to look at the "big picture".

Although An Bihuai is not a good official, Zhen Zhiwen has been in business for many years, and he has been in place from top to bottom.

Other wealthy households in Yunxian County are also like this, as long as the county master does not force his family to death, he can get by on the face, just hello, I am good, everyone is good.

Because of this, An Bihuai gradually gained a firm foothold in Yunxian County, and his actions became more and more arrogant. not only continued to ask for bribes, but also accepted several concubines one after another.

Imperial decree? This, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the people do not raise officials and do not hold them accountable.

The girl is also willing, and people don't go to beat the drum, who will be idle and panic and go to the official's house?

Therefore, there is such a thing as ignoring the decrees of the imperial court.

It's just not much.

Most of the concubines in this dynasty were married for the purpose of having children.

This has led to a surge in demand for a certain type of people.

Human teeth, okay, let's be civilized, let's just say it's the talent market.

Widows who have given birth to children are very sought-after.

Even if a concubine gives birth to a child, it must be recorded in the name of the main mother, since the main mother has no children, how can she care about the concubine?

If an official family who believes in the way of cause and effect adopts a child and gives birth to his own son, he will only love the adopted child more.

Guy himself has no children in his life, but his adopted son should have siblings in his life.

Under this open and inclusive trend of thought, even the widow's own children will not be embarrassed when they arrive in their new home.

Only in a few cases, if you really can't get along with your new family, if it is a boy, you will send a sum of money to do business, or study the imperial examination with your younger brother.

Girls, if they marry high or low, they will be embarrassed. Equal marriage, and there is not always a suitable candidate.

Being a female officer is actually a very good choice.

In a healthy society, the upward channel is very smooth. The manager and the managed are only different in the division of functions, and there is no distinction between high and low.

Hu Shi could not understand this.

In her eyes, although she is a female official, she is still an errand for the nobles, and if she looks up and doesn't look down in the future, how should she deal with it?

Hu Shi sneered: "Which of those old people in the officialdom is not an oil-soaked loquat core?" Don't say anything else about being an official, as long as you are tight, don't seek merit but no fault. Walking in the palace, what kind of life is it. The palace is full of dragons and phoenixes, if you want to be playmates with them, it's okay to say, the female official is an errand to put it bluntly, it depends on the person's face, where is it comfortable to live at home as a boudoir lady. ”

Zhen Zhiwen saw that the old lady took the conversation, no matter whether the old lady really understood it or not, she had to hold her stinky feet.

"The officials are on errand for the saints, and the female officials are on errand for the queen, and the left and right are all messengers of the heavenly family. Otherwise, the owners of the Shanxi, Huzhou, and Wuzhong guild halls hurriedly asked the old men from the palace to be their husbands, and hurriedly made up lessons for the nieces and daughters in the boudoir. ”

Although this dynasty emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce, the few large merchants named in the household department of the imperial court were actually treated the same as the courtiers and lords.

Among them, the "red-top merchants" are all imperial merchants, and their income is directly related to the internal treasury, that is, the emperor's private treasury.

Although the main business of this group of people is business, they have to contribute money to build bridges, roads, rivers and canals.

Their main component is the return of discharged soldiers to their hometowns and reemployment.

Loyal and trustworthy.

The emperors divided themselves into regions and formed chambers of commerce. The meeting place was named the Guild Hall, and the president of the Chamber of Commerce was called the owner of the Hall.

Zhen Zhiwen ran business in Yunmeng and Wuzhong, and he was attached to the owners of these two places.

He hurried home, that is, he got the news from the steward of King Wu's mansion a few days ago.

I'm afraid that the prince's palace will also learn to appoint female officials in the palace within the year.

"I heard that in order to win the first batch of female officials in the palace, King Wu and King Yan fought for red faces in the court. King Wu said that female officials are also errands for the heavenly family, and they also have to be officials in the household registration. ”

Although female officials are also exempt from forced labor and taxes, and pay monthly salaries, they are still regarded as "palace people" in terms of household registration.

This leads to the problem that some female officials, after retirement, return to their hometowns and are classified as "female households" if they do not have family members.

Although women heads of household have preferential treatment in many policies, many remain the same.

First, if a female household starts a family, if you don't want to be revoked of your privileges, you can only recruit money. However, most families will not agree to the entry of men, which makes it difficult for female officials to choose a mate.

Second, if the female official is not recruited, the household registration will follow the man, so the privilege of the female household will be gone.

The privilege of tax exemption for female officials had already been used when they entered the palace, and the household department had rejected the proposal for tax exemption for retired married female officials.

said that he was afraid that someone would fish in troubled waters. In fact, it has its own little ninety-nine.

The vast majority of female officials dedicated their lives to the court, and almost had no heirs, too. Not like the courtiers had their own faction of nephews and nephews. Once they retire, they don't have any power in their hands, and naturally no one will trouble them for them.

Therefore, it is a compromise idea for female officials to be listed as officials and put a name on the ministry.

However, there is another way.

"King Yan is even better, saying that he is short of manpower in the northwest disaster relief, please send a few qualified medicine practitioners to assist, and he is willing to wait for the position of Zhan Shi of Yan Wangfu."

After saying this, there was silence in the flower hall for a long time, Zhen Zhiwen looked at the old lady's face, and knew that the matter had been done.

Interests can always touch Hu's heart.

You must know that in addition to the women, the five grades of the female officials in the palace are the highest positions that women can reach with their own efforts.

And the most well-known is the female official of the Shangyi Bureau, who is the mouthpiece of the queen in the six bureaus and one division.

Siyan female officials are similar to the Changyu of the Han Dynasty, and are mainly responsible for conveying edicts, arranging celebrations in the palace, etc.

is so high-weighted, it can only be worthy of the sixth grade.

Changed to the previous dynasty, the six products, can touch the feet and necks of the Beijing official.

The Zhan Mansion is responsible for managing the affairs of the palaces such as the palace and the prince's mansion. Although there is a lot of overlap with Shanggong in terms of function, the grade is the third grade.

It is two orders higher than the highest-ranking Shang Gong among female officials!
