Seeing that Mr. Zhu wanted to say something else, she told Mr. Zhu these thoughts.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhu sighed: "You are right. Then I won't worry about Sister Xi's marriage."

Although they say this, both Zhu herself and Aunt Zhou know that it is impossible not to worry, even in this life. Who calls them mother and daughter?

…

The next day, the morning court was held, and Xiao Ge kept the nine ministers from the three chambers and six departments, and all of them were given seats.

"Let's take a look at the official position arrangement of these newly promoted Jinshi." Xiao Ge raised his chin towards Wuhuai Temple.

Wu Huaisi handed the distribution plan in his hand to Qi Xugu, who was nearest to him.

They sat in the order of officials, households, rituals, soldiers, punishments, and workers. Dali Temple, Honglu Temple, and Taichang Temple were behind them.

It is impossible for the imperial court to arrange more than 100 Jinshi positions at once. It only needs to arrange three or forty people who are the second-class Jinshi. The first-class people do not need to be arranged, and they can directly enter the Hanlin Academy and become common people; the third-class people are given the same background as Jinshi.

When looking at the rankings, you should also look at whether there are any shortcomings.

Even if there is a vacancy, most of the top three Jinshi go to official positions such as teaching in remote areas, ninth grade or no grade. If there are no vacancies, then wait until the end of the year or next year when an official becomes an official, the position becomes vacant, and then replaces it.

superior.

In other words, those in the first- and second-level positions are guaranteed to have official positions; the third-level ones are substitutes, and those who have official positions can only serve as the smallest official, and the chance of climbing up is much smaller.

Qi Xugu was not very interested in the Jinshi arrangement list. He had no shortage of people in the household department, and even if he was short of people, he would select people like Zhao Jingli who were talented in arithmetic. These Jinshis could memorize the Four Books and Five Classics by heart, but they were not good at arithmetic.

His skills are not as good as Zhao Jingli's, so what's the use of him?

He actually wanted Zhao Ruxi. Even if Zhao Ruxi expressed that he wanted to go abroad and was admitted to the second class, he could still fight for it. After all, officials had to listen to the arrangements of the emperor and the court, and Jinshi had no choice.

But now that Zhao Ruxi has directly won the first prize, he will enter the Hanlin Academy and be trained as the emperor's secretary. He does not have the courage to compete with the emperor for someone.

Without Zhao Ruxi, he looked down on other people, so he was unwilling to let new people join the household department.

He glanced at the list symbolically and planned to hand it to the Minister of Rites, but as soon as he passed his hand in the direction of the Minister of Rites, he retracted and looked at the list with wide eyes.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Wu Huai Temple, his eyes as big as bells: "What's going on? If Zhao Zhiwei, the number one scholar, doesn't enter the Hanlin Academy and become a concubine, you let her go?"

Wu Huaisi looked at him helplessly.

This old guy is really relying on his old age. He knows that the list must have obtained the emperor's approval before they can discuss it again. Qi Xugu did not dare to challenge the emperor, so he came to question him. He is really an old fox.

He said: "Zhao Zhiwei herself proposed that she would like to serve as an official. After the emperor considered it, he felt that young people wanted to experience the hardships of the people's livelihood, which was worthy of recognition, so he fulfilled her request."

As he spoke, he glanced at Qi Xugu with deep meaning.

Qi Xugu looked at Xiao Ge and suddenly reacted.

Yes, to put it bluntly, the Hanlin Academy is the Emperor's Secretariat, and the Yamen is in the front hall of the palace. As a young and beautiful girl, Zhao Zhiwei stays with the Emperor all day long, and the Emperor particularly appreciates her talent and learning. Will the Emperor get up when the time comes?

Do you have other thoughts, including bringing her into the palace as a concubine?

Zhao Zhiwei was very talented. How many generations did it take to produce such a talented and beautiful person? In the end, he became one of the many concubines in the emperor's harem. He was scheming and jealous with the concubines all day long. This simply destroyed her whole being.

It was ruined. This was a loss for the entire Jin Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhao Zhiwei cannot do this under any circumstances.

And when she proposed to go out and did not want to be a concubine, she also expressed her feelings to the emperor and did not want to be a woman around the emperor.

Probably the emperor understood this and had no intention of being a sinner of this history; and he truly cherished Zhao Zhiwei's talent, so he recruited Zhao Zhiwei as the number one scholar, but he followed her wish and allowed her to be released.

If I make such nonsense here, I will not only harm Zhao Zhiwei, but also make the emperor unhappy. It is really inappropriate.

It's all because I was on a mission just now, I didn't react for a moment, my mouth is faster than my brain.

He quickly made up for himself: "So that's it. That's good, that's good. Young people really need to go out and experience the hardships of people's livelihood. Only by knowing this can you know how to be an official and what kind of official you are.

.”

He thrust the list into the hands of the Minister of Rites, stood up and saluted Xiao Ge: "I have no objection to this list."

Xiao Ge glanced at him and nodded expressionlessly.

Qi Xugu felt sweat dripping from his heart.

Everyone here is an old fox. After hearing this conversation, everyone understood what Zhao Zhiwei's arrangement was. Of course, they would not step into the minefield again. Except for the three yamen who had vacancies below, they asked for one or two fellow Jinshis by name.

Other than that, I have no opinion on anything else.

In fact, they have already informed Wu Huaisi in private about who they want to arrange to enter their yamen. They will not bring it here to say it in front of the emperor.

Anyway, Jinshi have to arrange positions. As long as it has no impact on the court or the entire yamen, Wuhuai Temple will make it easier for them. Of course, whether he will report it to the emperor in private or not, no one knows except the emperor.

.

When the water is clear, there will be no fish. Within a certain range, as long as it is not excessive, Xiao Ge will take into account the difficulties of these courtiers and turn a blind eye to them.

At this time, Xiao Ge looked at everyone who ordered and saw that there were no serious problems and the number of people was not large, so he agreed.

Finally the list was decided.

As Zhao Zhiwei is the number one scholar, his starting point is naturally higher than other Jinshi according to the rules, starting directly from the sixth rank. The second place is from the seventh rank, and the third highest rank is from the seventh rank. The other Jinshi are from the eighth and ninth ranks.

So Zhao Zhiwei directly sent the same magistrate to Nanyang Prefecture, Linjiang Prefecture, Anzhou Province.

Everyone had no objections to the list, so they all left.

"Zhang Aiqing, stay." Xiao Ge stopped Zhang Changshen.

After everyone else had gone out, he said: "Wu Zong has stayed in Dali Temple for a long enough time, and he himself was released unexpectedly. Now there is a vacancy in Linjiang Prefecture in Anzhou Province, and I want to arrange for him to be the prefect of Linjiang Prefecture.

As his direct superior, Ai Qing, what do you think?"

"I have no objection," Zhang Changshen said quickly.

He also strongly agreed with Wu Zong's decision to let others go.

He is also in his forties, almost fifty years old, and his line of work requires a lot of physical and mental energy. In the past two years, he has gradually felt that his body cannot bear it. In a few years, he will always be employed. He

I hope Wu Zong can take over his class.

However, the Minister of Dali Temple is the third-rank official and can directly enter the cabinet. Wu Zong has no foreign experience, so he cannot climb to this position. When the time comes, those who covet this position in the court will definitely use this shortcoming to criticize Wu Zong and prevent him from sitting on it.
