There is no need to worry about the Earl's Mansion having no money. No matter what happens to the Yuan family, there will always be a hereditary Earl of Loyalty and Qin.

The salary of the earls of the Great Zhou Dynasty is not too high, but it is not too small either. If it fails, the salaries of the earls after the Yuan family will be used to pay off the debt.

If the Yuan family really wanted to finish Hualan's dowry and the earl salary would take hundreds of years to repay, they might as well just let their eldest nephew inherit the earl title.

I can't write two characters "Yuan" in one stroke. When Hualan gives birth to a boy, he will also be the direct bloodline of the Yuan family.

If Sheng Changbai's status was high enough, it would not be too much to let his eldest nephew inherit the title.

Although Sheng Changbai has always felt that the status of the military commanders of the Zhou Dynasty was not high and was not as valuable as the titles of other dynasties.

But after all, this can be regarded as a golden rice bowl for hundreds of years. You can have hundreds of years of wealth by doing nothing.

This is wealth that can be passed down for ten generations. If you can give it to your nephew, why not give it to you?

It doesn't matter whether you have money or not. If you buy a piece of land on the outskirts of Beijing and pass it on to your family, you can still guarantee such an income.

The important thing is to have a title that will not be manipulated by petty officials or squires.

"Erlang, my life in the Yuan family is okay. Your brother-in-law treats me well. You and your father don't have to worry so much about me."

Hualan comforted Sheng Changbaidao, Yuan Wenshao was okay with Hualan, but that was just okay.

When there was a conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Yuan Wenshao still took his mother's side.

After all, this was the Zhou Dynasty, which governed the country with filial piety. It was quite rare for someone to marry a daughter-in-law and forget her mother.

At this time, men still agree with the principle of divorcing the daughter-in-law if the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law do not get along and become incompatible.

You can remarry your daughter-in-law after you divorce her, and you can change her if you want. But you only have one biological mother, and it is impossible to change her to another biological mother.

"Sister, this is nothing to worry about. If you are wronged and we can't come forward, how can we, father and son, stand in the court?"

After Sheng Changbai entered the court, he definitely couldn't have the all-around temperament of Sheng Hong.

The situation is different and the goals are different. Of course, it is not suitable to choose one style of doing things.

"Madam, Sister Zhuang is here."

Behind the maid, the child's wet nurse followed and brought the child over.

After the child and the maid came over, this issue could no longer be discussed.

The female envoy from the Sheng family who gave Hua Lan a dowry was relatively loyal to Hua Lan.

After all, the parents and brothers of these female envoys still depend on the Sheng family for their livelihood.

But the people arranged by the Yuan family for Hua Lan are still loyal to the Yuan family. How can we discuss this in front of these people?

After looking at his niece and chatting with Hua Lan for a while, Sheng Changbai left the Earl's Mansion.

Because Earl Zhongqin's Mansion was already close to the outer city, it would take a while for Sheng Changbai to ride home, so he had to go back early.

The Earl's Mansion of the Yuan Family, apart from the regulations, has a slightly larger front door than the Sheng Mansion.

Regardless of the geographical location, supporting environment, floor space, and building materials, they are all far inferior to Shengzhai.

At the founding of the People's Republic of China, the great inner city mansion given by Taizu to the first generation Zhongqin Bo was confiscated by the late Emperor when the Yuan family participated in the rebellion.

As for the Earl's Mansion where the Yuan family currently lives, the Yuan family's financial resources cannot afford it. It was the current emperor who, when he overturned the case for the Yuan family, looked at the pity of the family and rewarded it to this family.

I don’t blame other nobles for thinking that Uncle Zhongqin is lonely and not taking the Yuan family to play.

The other nobles all live in the inner city, and only the Yuan family is about to live outside the city.

Compared to those outside the fifth ring road, it is reasonable for other nobles to look down on the Yuan family.

Even when the two kings were fighting, the two groups headed by King Yong and King Yan were going crazy, and no one came to win over the Earl of Zhongqin.

He has neither power nor money, and there is nothing worth winning over.

After resting for a day, Sheng Changbai put on his green official uniform and a black gauze hat with wings on his head on the third day and arrived at the Secretary's Department in the northwest of the imperial city.

This was also the reason why Sheng Changbai passed the imperial examination and was given a green robe by the emperor.

Otherwise, Sheng Changbai's rank would only be worthy of wearing a green robe.

After registering, I was assigned to Chongwenyuan Shaowen Hall.

Chongwenyuan is the collective name of the National Library.

Chongwenyuan includes Zhaowen Pavilion, History Pavilion, and Jixian Pavilion, which are called three pavilions, Mi Pavilion, and Longtu Pavilion, which are called two pavilions.

Zhao Wen Guan is responsible for the collection of classics, histories, chapters, and four collections, as well as editing and collation.

The History Museum is an institution that supervises the compilation of national history.

Jixianyuan is responsible for collecting and collating classics.

The Secret Pavilion is the place where the royal family collects and treasures ancient books, calligraphy and paintings.

Longtuge is a memorial hall dedicated to collecting Taizong's imperial letters, collected works, and classics, pictures, and imperial objects related to him.

When you hear this name, you will know that Chongwenyuan was the highest official academic institution in the Zhou Dynasty and a place where bigwigs gathered.

The Zhaowen Museum and the History Museum were both headed by Prime Minister Han Daxiangong.

The other editors are all court officials, and direct management and review must be performed by officials above the Beijing official level.

The level of Jixian Yuan is slightly lower, and its presiding officials are also officials with extremely high degrees such as bachelor's degree, bachelor's degree, direct college, and school science.

Of course, there are not many high-ranking officials who actually work inside. These government and cabinet positions are more of a post from the big boss, and adding an official position is a kind of honorary title.

The famous Bao Zheng has always held the title of direct bachelor of Longtuge.

Although Sheng Changbai is only from the eighth grade now, his grade is not high.

What we do is also the lowest level of proofreading, not editing work.

But being able to work in a library, Sheng Changbai can already be called a "literary celebrity."

As soon as he joined the job, Sheng Changbai was assigned a job, which was to proofread an article in the Later Han Dynasty.

To be honest, this library job is far less relaxing than Sheng Changbai thought.

Because before the Zhou Dynasty, the Central Plains experienced nearly a hundred years of turmoil.

All kinds of classics and historical books were scattered and badly damaged.

When the Zhou Dynasty was first established, the total collection of books in the National Library was only more than 10,000 volumes.

At this scale, it is not even as large as the collection of books in a family's private library in the prosperous times.

Therefore, after the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, rescuing lost books and classics became an important task.

This is obviously a long-term project. It has been collected for decades since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it is still at a peak period of collection.

A group of sub-officials in Jixian Garden were established to collect various classics.

This group of people is responsible for searching, copying, printing, and various ancient classics.

If these books are collected in the National Library, they will not need to be taken care of.

It was the turn of editors like Sheng Changbai to correct the books.

Before the Zhou Dynasty, there was not even printing, and books were copied by hand.

After being copied one by one, it is inevitable that some good and bad people will be mixed in, and the classics will inevitably contain many fallacies.

It’s not that important if an ordinary book is wrong, but if an important classic and historical book is wrong, the meaning completely changes.

In addition to checking this, we also need to check our thoughts.

If there are some things that are not in line with the interests of those in power, they should be deleted as well.

What Sheng Changbai is doing now is the most basic work, and there is no need to test the ideas in the classics to see if it is suitable or not.

Just check for typos, add more words and less words, and add some simple punctuation marks to the book to make it easier to read.

Check for typos and color them out in yellow.

Different characters or multiple characters should be circled in orpiment.

If a word is missing, add it next to it.

If the lines are closely spaced, use cinnabar to draw a circle, and then clearly mark the upper and lower spaces on the paper.

For all points where the words are broken, the side is the correct one.

If a person's name, place name, etc. needs to be subdivided, separate it with a thin dot in the middle, which is a period.

Of course, if he wanted to proofread these books, Sheng Changbai couldn't just make random changes based on his own memory.

For example, the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, which has a relatively large number of versions that have been handed down, Sheng Changbai needs to find all the versions.

Carefully consider word for word, check various information, and only make changes if you have sufficient evidence and evidence.

In the Zhou Dynasty, schooling was also a very rigorous matter.

Of course, the reason for being strict is that Sheng Changbai is not a big boss. If he were a big boss, Sheng Changbai could proofread some classics according to his own wishes.

You can even provide annotations and annotations to the imperial examination scriptures and essays.

During the school inspection, it is inevitable that some of your own personal belongings may be included.
