Chapter 1018 Acting vigorously and resolutely (first update)
Wang occasionally interacted with the female officials in Yaozhou, and their seemingly gentle but tough temperaments left a deep impression on her. Even though she would slander them in front of her husband, she was extremely envious of them in her heart.
. Even if those female officials were married, their husbands’ families would definitely not dare to whisper to them.
Seeing her husband's self-satisfied look, Ms. Wang wanted to persuade him not to be too optimistic, but she swallowed it back before she could say anything. She knew the temperament of the person next to her, and it could be said that he was very big.
Masculinity. Especially with the emergence of female officials, perhaps because he was suppressed by them, or perhaps because Princess Qionghua rectified the Yaozhou officialdom, which reduced their acceptance of bribes, he has become increasingly unable to listen to what women say in the past two years.
.If she dares to pour cold water on this stall, she will be scolded for not being able to protect herself, and then she will deliberately pamper her concubine and slap her in the face. Good advice is offensive to the ears, so why should she bother to talk.
Thinking of this, Wang stopped her thoughts and even had a vague idea: She should let the princess straighten him out and let him know that even a woman can put pressure on him as long as she has the ability.
Gan He went out happily. When he heard the news that he had been dismissed, he was dumbfounded. He was a little drunk at first and was shocked to wake up by the news.
Why did Princess Qionghua take away his official position? Does she have the qualifications?
Wait, she really seems to have it. The late emperor doted on her as a niece so much that he actually gave her greater rights than the prince. The late emperor was so stupid!
It's just that in the past few months, Princess Qionghua has not used this right. As time passed, they forgot about it and even started to unite to make trouble for the princess.
He must have been used to scare the monkeys!
Even so, Gan He was still unwilling to appoint him. Although he was only a ninth-grade official with a modest salary, coupled with his filial piety, he could earn a thousand taels a year. Without this official, his family would have to pay more in the future.
Is it okay to drink the northwest wind?
He suddenly realized that the princess must have driven them away in order to make room for her own people.
Resentment appeared on Gan He's face, "I have been working diligently for fifteen years, but I don't know which law I broke. The princess is so cruel and wants to take away the livelihood of my whole family."
The attendant glanced at him and took out a letter.
"In March six years ago, you took two hundred taels from Pan Yuanwai of Dongcheng, helped his son take a good woman as a concubine, and forced the couple to separate."
"Four years ago in June..."
The attendant told all the things that Gan He had done that violated the law over the years, without any intention of saving face for him. Gan He's children looked at him in disbelief - Gan He treated his children well.
At home, he always boasted that he was a good official who served the people wholeheartedly, and coaxed his children into admiring him. He also felt that his agreeable boss was short-sighted in not promoting his father.
Only now did they find out that their father was actually a bad official known to outsiders, and everyone felt that their views had been shattered.
Feeling the changes in the eyes of his children, Ganhe's legs became weak. How could Princess Qionghua find out something so early?
It's over, let alone continue to be an official, he might even be imprisoned.
Why could I not think about it before? I felt that the law was not accountable to the public, so why did I have to go against my work?
The events of the Gan family occurred in many places in Yaozhou. Within one day, more than 30 officials and more than a hundred low-level officials were dismissed from their posts, and some serious cases were even thrown into prison.
After several years of business, Su Youning has already developed her own power. This time, she can be said to be very vigorous and resolute, not giving those people a chance to react. Especially since she has collected all the evidence, including both personal and material evidence.
, giving them no chance to deny it at all.
If they refuse to admit it, Su Youning will have other evidence.
Suddenly, the entire Yaozhou officialdom was silent, and everyone was huddled at home, fearing that the fire would burn directly on their heads.
The families whose interests were harmed were naturally very angry and frightened, but they did not dare to say anything because of the tough attitude shown by Su Youning this time. If it were other unfounded officials, they might have dared to take risks and carry out assassination. But Su Youning
Who dares? The other party is a princess. If we attack her, we will definitely kill three or more tribes. Secondly, they don't have the ability. On the one hand, Su Youning has a lot of guards, including 500 elite soldiers. Secondly, Yaozhou is here
All the thieves and bandits in the house were wiped out by Su Youning's uncle. Yuan Suifeng's reputation is still there, who dares to touch it?
They could only curse at home. Su Youning would not end well if he acted perversely for her own benefit. She did all this just to make room for her own people. Other officials would definitely unite in grief.
But when the list of new officials appointed by Su Youning came out, these people were all dumbfounded.
Of the nearly one hundred and forty vacant seats, only twenty-four were given to selected female officials. The rest were promoted to subordinate officials or well-known local scholars and scholars.
Those who were promoted can be said to be an unexpected surprise.
Even if most of them have no rank, they are still officials, so who would dislike them.
The people who were selected were all ecstatic. They felt that Su Youning had a good eye for talents and always said good things about Su Youning when he met everyone. In order to secure his hard-won position, he had to work hard to publicize the bad things his predecessor had done and use encouragement to win over Su Youning.
Everyone knows that their selection is a matter of course.
The other officials who were not implicated were relieved when they saw this. It seemed that Princess Qionghua did not deliberately find excuses to eliminate a group of people in order to exclude dissidents. It was simply that the previous people had gone too far, and the princess did not like them.
There are also some scholars who are not officials who feel that the door to the new world has been opened, and they are thinking about keeping an eye on those officials in the future. If they are replaced, maybe it will be their turn.
Those officials lost their official positions and reputations and were almost pissed to death, but there was nothing they could do.
Princess Qionghua is so treacherous! Isn’t this intentional to drive a wedge between them?
No matter how much these people cursed behind their backs, it could not change the established facts. They could only watch helplessly as Su Youning gained fame and consolidated his power.
On September 7th, the angel carrying the imperial edict arrived at the princess mansion.
Su Youning, who had been prepared for a long time, had people set up an incense table and called Shen Jingzhu, Yin Yuewei and others over to receive the order together.
Even the usually calm and calm Shen Jingzhu and other female officials couldn't help but have their hearts beating wildly. They thought of the princess asking for merit for them some time ago, and they couldn't help but wonder if the emperor's will was coming.
After everyone had arrived, the angel who had drank tea opened the holy edict and began to recite it.
Shen Jingzhu was canonized as the Lord of Anping County, Yin Yuewei was named the Lord of Yangjing County, and six female officials including Qi Fanghui and Che Chuntao were not canonized, but they also enjoyed double salaries.
After the decree was issued, the whole house was filled with joy. Shen Jingzhu and Yin Yuewei undoubtedly became the most prosperous people. Everyone saw the achievements of these two people in the past few years. While other female officials were envious, they also secretly made up their minds to be on par with them. As long as they make achievements, the princess will not hesitate to ask for credit for them. Although they are not as powerful as Shen Jingzhu and the others, they also enjoy double salaries. This is a dignity that other male officials in Yaozhou do not have. How can they not let them So proud of myself.
Coincidentally, when the imperial edict arrived, the servants of the Guo family also sent the wedding invitation.
