Chapter 111 Magistrate
Han Yong's official document came to the Ministry of Officials, divided into two factions around the content, and quarreled endlessly. The officials, who were really unable to do it, had to hand over the official documents to the cabinet again, which once again caused a quarrel between the two factions. On the one hand, we insist on meritocracy, meritocracy, and meritocracy, and on the other hand, we advocate following the ancestral system and gradual progress.
The political propositions of the two sides are different, and the result is that they can't be determined. They had to submit this problem to Zhu Jianshen, the emperor of Jing, for decision. He clearly knows that Guangxi is at a time when people are used, and the appointment of talents is the key. If you promote an official with shallow qualifications and no *, you can't create a huge wave. In his opinion, the position of a small magistrate is not worth mentioning. Lin Zimo is a true virtuous person and can use it well. If his name is not true, he will be guilty of bullying the king and killing him to block his mouth.
Zhu Jianshen, who is thoughtful, can pretend to be confused about small things, but he will instantly become sober and wise about big things. I can not only get a good reputation that I don't value the family and pay attention to real talent and hard work, but also inspire the self-motivation of officials from poor families. When he mentioned the imperial pen, he approved a word 'quasi' in the official document submitted, then wrote some words of encouragement, and then returned it. And in Zhu Jianshen's heart, he still earnestly hopes that Lin Zimo will be the real pillar of the country.
Since the emperor has expressed his position directly, the cabinet and the Ministry of officials will no longer argue. They had to do what Zhu Jianshen wanted. Han Yong, who was approved, had full confidence and explained the matter to the main officials at the "routine meeting" of the provincial government. No one stands up against the matter. After all, the "big boss" has made a clear statement.
Recently, Pingnan County has been in peace for a period of time, so it is rare for Lin Zimo to go to the county government office without dawn. Instead, he got up early to practice martial arts, strengthen his body, and went to the government office without hurry after breakfast. After wandering around, he found that there was nothing important to deal with, so he slowly left the government office and went home.
Yang Mengqi, who was busy with housework, gradually got used to the lifestyle of being a father-in-law and did not ask as much as at the beginning. Inspired to become a good wife, she naturally has the obligation to remind her husband to be diligent. Chu Hanlu, a rich and idle person, in addition to completing an hourly reading task assigned to her by Yang Mengqi, the rest of the thing is to eat and play.
Lin Zimo, who was idle for a while, really felt unprecedented boredom. After all, he really didn't like the entertainment and pastime in the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty. Instead of asking the stars to sing Kunqu opera, he chose to sit in the flower hall and taste tea. Ji Xiaojuan, standing next to him, served with joy, and what she liked was to accompany him. I would most like to stand aside and "appreciate" him so silently. She, who was secretly in love with Lin Zimo, kept getting a little bit of love from the bottom of her heart.
Wang Qiang, who had no expression on his face, took the official document just sent by the provincial government office in his hand, ran into the flower hall and handed it to his master and said, "Master, the urgent letter of the provincial government office. The servant who sent the official document from the provincial government said that he was the person around Governor Han, indicating that this is an extremely important official document. I hope you can check it quickly and handle it according to the content of the official letter as soon as possible.
took the official document and opened the fire seal. While pulling out the official letter in the envelope, he casually said, "urgent article, how urgent it can be. They can't see me live a few days of leisure and comfort.
Lin Zimo, who finished reading the official letter, put the official document in his hand on the desk, and then slowly got up and walked out without saying a word. Having already got the position of the magistrate of Xunzhou, he suddenly couldn't be happy in his heart, but became a little worried. After all, he didn't say that he could leave, and many things still needed to be explained one by one. Wang Qiang, who didn't know the truth, thought that his master had encountered bad luck, so he boldly took the official document on the table and read it in his hand.
Ji Xiaojuan, who was very concerned about Lin Zimo, was afraid of an accident and said timidly, "Housekeeper Wang, what did you say in the letter?"
"Good things, great things." Wang Qiang, holding the official document in his hand, blurted out excitedly: "Our master has been promoted again. This time, the master has not only been promoted to six levels in a row, but also has become our governor of Xunzhou, but also has the imperial approval given by His Majesty.
Ji Xiaojuan put her hands on her chest and smiled brightly for Lin Zimo. Knowing the truth of the matter, she couldn't wait to turn around and run to find Lin Zimo, trying to figure out why he was not happy, but a little depressed. And not long after she ran out, she happened to meet the passing moon. Seeing her so happy picking the moon, he stopped her curiously and asked casually. Ji Xiaojuan, who didn't think much, said it honestly.
Cai Yue, who heard the good news, trotted to find her mistress. After all, she was the first to inform her of the good news. Since Caixing entered Linfu, Yang Mengqi, who had nothing to do, often asked her to sing songs with her. The thoughtful Caiyue was afraid that Caixing would take away his position in the heart of the eldest lady, and he would do things more attentively and hard.
Knowing the picking of the moon arranged by his hostess, he ran into the study without knocking on the door and said, "The master has been promoted to the governor of Xunzhou."
Yang Mengqi and Chu Hanlu, who heard clearly, focused their eyes on her. Although Chu Hanlu was not very clear about what happened and how old the magistrate was, she thought that promotion was a good thing, so she jumped up happily. Yang Mengqi, who knew that Caiyue did not dare to fool them with this kind of thing, was very happy and excited, and his face seemed a little calmer.
"Congratulations to the two ladies, Hexi." With a happy face, Caiyue knew that his hostess had become the magistrate's wife, and his status would also rise, so he showed a particularly excited tone and added, "Our emperor also specially criticized the emperor for encouraging words and praised him as a model of scholars all over the world."
Yang Mengqi, who suddenly became proud, felt how wise Lin Zimo's original decision was, but he couldn't understand it. In addition to having more admiration for him, she sighed that her father-in-law was really talented, had a unique vision, and judged the situation... Yang Mengqi, whose mind was full of good words, felt that he could marry him as a wife, which was really good for several lifetimes.
"What are you still doing here?" Yang Mengqi, who settled down a little, hurriedly said, "Why don't you hurry up and prepare for this happy day? Put the firecrackers and so on.
Cai Yue naturally followed her instructions, and Yang Mengqi, who was excited, did not care about Chu Hanlu's studies for a while and went to find his father-in-law alone to share this joy and happiness with him. Chu Hanlu, who was not in charge of the teacher, took Cailian back to Xiulou and told her to comb her the most beautiful head again.
Lin Zimo stood in the corner of the garden, with his back behind his back and looked up at the sky. His mind was full of thoughts, while Ji Xiaojuan, who stood behind him, quietly stared at his back and felt that his eyes was not only shining, but also shining. In my heart, I am eager to marry her. Even if I am just a concubine, I feel very happy and satisfied.
It was not easy to find his husband Yang Mengqi and said with a sweet smile, "The slave family congratulated my husband. Congratulations to the prime minister for his promotion to the governor of Xunzhou.
Lin Zimo, who slowly turned around, said calmly, "So soon, you will know."
Yang Mengqi, who stepped forward, made a deep blessing to him and said solemnly, "My wife is proud of her husband. If your father-in-law can fly ten thousand miles, then as a wife's slave, he is naturally very happy. The slave family does not seek glory and wealth, beautiful clothes and jade food, but only wants his father-in-law to show what he has learned and ambitions in his life.
"Madam, get up quickly." Lin Zimo smiled and said, "I don't blame you. Don't think too much."
Yang Mengqi, who got up with the help of Ji Xiaojuan, said with a serious distinction: "The slave family didn't think much, but my father-in-law thought too much. Even if my husband is still a piece of cloth, the slave family will say so.
Lin Zimo fully knew her, so he felt that it was his mistake, so he stopped calculating and thinking about other things. He approached her and shared this stage of success with his family. Ji Xiaojuan, who looks in her eyes and is sour in her heart, has mixed feelings for the love between the couple.
"Fature, you only need to do your best to deal with business and the aftermath, and the family will arrange all the trivial matters and moving at home." Yang Mengqi, who leaned gently on him, smiled and said, "The slave family is really reluctant to leave Pingnan County. After all, there are too many good memories of the slave family and his father-in-law."
Lin Zimo suddenly laughed and said badly: "My biggest memory of being a husband is to watch the scenery with my wife in the woods not long ago. Since we are about to leave here, we should visit our hometown again.
In an instant, Yang Mengqi, who understood the meaning of his words, protested softly and said, "Your husband, let's forgive me!"
"What's wrong with that? I think it's very good, natural and pure. Lin Zimo, who pretended to be confused, continued to tease her and said, "Madam, just say something bad and let me listen to it."
"My father-in-law is a deadly hate. Aren't you afraid that others will laugh at you? Yang Mengqi, who knew that he was starting to make bad again, sweetly advised, "You are already a magistrate. Don't be so unscrupulous, okay?"
"The magistrate is also a person. Since it is a human being, there will be a desire that someone should have. Lin Zimo, who didn't agree, knew that she was shy and conservative, and continued to say improperly, "If you don't like it, it won't be difficult for you. In the future, take the little girl to see the scenery so that she can feel some of the beauty nurtured by nature.
