Chang Ning: "Chief Zhao is the girl's uncle and a close relative. Why didn't he propose it to the girl himself, but asked Mr. Lang to tell her about it?"
"It can be seen that this is not a reasonable thing, and the girl will probably not agree," he said: "Now the girl is not in charge of a county, but a state. Yuzhou has ten counties under its jurisdiction, and one county has several counties.
It will take too long if the lady wants to inspect them one by one."
"She is the lord of Yuzhou. It would be bad if she leaves the state for too long. If there is urgent business, where can we find her?"
Fu Tinghan had a headache. He knew why Zhao Ming came to him to tell him, and he also vaguely understood why Chang Ning didn't want Zhao Hanzhang to personally inspect the counties, but he didn't know why both of them suddenly came to him.
Fu Tinghan sighed inwardly and said to Chang Ning: "I will tell her your thoughts."
As for how to do it, it is up to her to decide.
Chang Ning: "...Is the gentleman willing to be separated from the girl for such a long time? It will take at least seven or eight months to patrol the entire Yuzhou, but it will take up to one or two years at most?"
Fu Tinghan doesn't think it's a big deal. He likes Zhao Hanzhang, but he has his own things to do, and Zhao Hanzhang also has his own things to do. They are both busy. As long as they know that the other person is safe, there is really no need to be in the same place all the time.
What's more, he didn't think it would take so long for Zhao Hanzhang to inspect the entire Yuzhou.
Fu Tinghan sighed, went directly to Zhao Hanzhang who was approving official documents, and relayed the words of Zhao Ming and Chang Ning one by one. Ji Yuan was also sitting aside working. Hearing this, he raised his head and looked at the two people sitting and standing next to each other.
Zhao Hanzhang held his pen and thought, "Uncle Ming's considerations are good, but he is too cautious. Do I suspect that he is against Hanshi just because he is from a noble family?"
She said: "Mr. Ji is also a generous and generous person, and he will not get angry because of this, right Mr. Ji?"
Ji Yuan:...Can he say yes?
Ji Yuan nodded seriously, "Yes."
Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him, lowered her eyes and began to think. Letting Ji Yuan kill someone on her behalf would be different from killing someone herself. The effect, the obstacles she would encounter, and even the subsequent reaction would be different.
She had previously asked Ji Yuan to make this trip on her behalf because she wanted to stay in Chen County and take charge, but what Zhao Ming mentioned was correct, and she began to think deeply.
Ji Yuan put down his pen and said seriously: "Girl, what Zhao Zinian said is right. Now if you personally come forward to establish your authority, the effect will be different."
"If you can patrol the five counties and capitals, then you will not be officially canonized by the imperial court, and no one can shake your status in Yuzhou."
Zhao Hanzhang tapped the table twice and said decisively: "Okay, I'll go on patrol."
Ji Yuan immediately stood up and saluted, "Yuan will go down and make arrangements right now."
The scale of Zhao Hanzhang's patrol was naturally different from his. The center of Yuzhou followed her, so she had to bring not only generals and soldiers with her, but also officials from the governor's office of Yuzhou, so that she could connect with Chen County.
Zhao Hanzhang was still thinking about things. When he saw that Ji Yuan was about to draft a list, he said: "I was just about to tell my husband that I plan to promote Sun Linghui to the magistrate of Aoyang County."
Ji Yuan was slightly surprised, "She is the county magistrate? This..."
Zhao Hanzhang asked: "What, is she not capable enough?"
Ji Yuan thought about it carefully and then shook his head: "Not really, it's just the female officer. I thought the lady wanted to keep her by my side, just like Fan Ying."
Zhao Hanzhang said: "She is careful but courageous. She has the ability to govern the place. It would be unreasonable to put her next to me to do a small job."
She said: "It's good to be a county magistrate. We can also take a look at her abilities and see if she can be of greater use in the future."
Ji Yuan only hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
There is already a precedent like Zhao Hanzhang, so it is not impossible for a woman to become the chief official.
Anyway, Zhao Hanzhang can now appoint and remove officials by himself.
The current governor of Runan County is Zhao Ming, and the appointment and removal of the magistrate of Aoyang County must go through him.
Fortunately, Zhao Ming did not object. He only thought for a moment before agreeing and personally signed the appointment order for Sun Linghui.
The Sun family never expected that their daughter could not only be an official, but also a county magistrate!
The county magistrate is different!
This was the chief official of a county. Even though Sun Linghui's previous official position was not low, most of the time they automatically thought that she was the female official next to Zhao Hanzhang who worked for Zhao Hanzhang.
But being a county magistrate is different. Even if the official rank of a county magistrate is not that high, you need to have your own ideas for governing the place.
The Sun family's parents swallowed nervously. Wasn't Zhao Kuan, the son-in-law they liked and was satisfied with before, the magistrate of Aoyang County?
And now my daughter can achieve Zhao Kuan's position...
At this moment, they were not in a hurry to marry off their daughter.
Sun Linghui's mother Zhao Qi even said to her: "If you really don't want to get married, then don't talk about marriage for the time being."
This surprised Sun Linghui, "Auntie, you don't like your cousin anymore?"
"No, your cousin is still very good, but I see you are so reluctant, so don't force it," Zhao Qi was very realistic and said to her: "Your brother is useless. He has been to the banquet for many years and has failed.
I don’t think he is interested in becoming an official. In Runan, the Sun family is far inferior to our Zhao family, and our Sun family is not as good as your maternal grandfather’s family. Your father and I have been worried about our situation after we leave.
One branch just disappeared.”
"This is why I want to get closer to your uncle. You know Kuan'er. I'm not boasting. Needless to say, among the new generation of the Zhao family, there is Hanzhang, but apart from her, it's our Kuan'er. You must be able to marry
If you give it to him, you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future, and you can also help your brother." Zhao Qi said: "But now you can do what Kuan'er can do, it doesn't matter who you marry, remember to take care of him in the future.
Just your brother will do."
Sun Linghui agreed, "I will definitely take care of my brother!"
In order to make her mother give up this idea completely, Sun Linghui said: "Mom, our envoy said that it is best for close relatives like me and my cousin not to get married, because it is easy to give birth to unhealthy children."
"Nonsense, you are healthy and your cousin is also healthy, how could you give birth to an unhealthy child?"
"It's true. Even the doctor said that the envoy was right. With her knowledge, how could she still lie to us?"
Zhao Qi thought deeply, "Is it because she doesn't want Zhao and Sun to get married again?"
Sun Linghui: "...Auntie, you are overthinking it. She just mentioned it casually and did not mean it."
"True intentions are often spoken inadvertently."
Sun Linghui: ...she found it difficult to correct her mother's cognition, so she could only give up and change the subject, "Aniang, I will go to Aiyang to be the county magistrate. You should also be careful in your words and deeds after returning to your hometown. What will happen next?"
You want to rectify the officialdom in Yuzhou, but if I can't control my family well, you will also accuse me."
"Don't worry, your father and I will keep the people under control, but don't be too nervous. We and Sanniang are the same family. She always has to look at the dignity of some relatives. Doesn't she have to treat the relatives of the Zhao family equally?"
At this time, Zhao Hanzhang was treating everyone equally.
