"This is about the system of serving as officials in our court; no one without fame will be admitted to our court. This means that people without fame cannot be officials, no matter how high their status is.
Our Prince Li is just a civil servant.
And Juren cannot be an official in the capital. If he has to enter the fifth position, he can only go to other places like Ji County Magistrate and others, and without great achievements in his life, he can only be a ninth-grade county magistrate."
"No, Prince Li is the one who can promote people?" It's quite incredible.
Isn’t it said that all the men and women in Beijing are either talented men or talented women?
In this regard, Qi Baoer could only say: "Because there is no need to struggle anymore, I didn't study seriously when I was a child."
The status of Prince Li is extremely valuable. To put it bluntly, even if he lies motionless, he can live a happy life.
So what else is there to learn? Anyway, what others may not be able to obtain after a lifetime of hard work, he already has it all as soon as he is born.
Especially when he was a child, there was nothing worth pursuing. Naturally, he didn't care much about his studies. Then, the foundation was not laid well, and by the time he realized the importance of studies, it was already too late.
Qi Kang'an understood, "So, Prince Li needs to have meritorious service, so the emperor will give him an official position."
"My enemy, although there is no rule in the Qilin Kingdom that a consort cannot become an official, there are still some taboos.
The Prince Consort of Wei is a smart man. He is not a military general like Zhongyi Hou. He has a limited number of soldiers. Although he is a general, he only helps the emperor to defend the country. His own abilities are also limited. Even if he is arrogant, he cannot make trouble.
.
But the Prince Consort of Wei is different. If he enters the court, he will take the path of a civil servant; and he is highly knowledgeable and has disciples all over the world. Once he is appointed to the court, his influence cannot be matched by that of ten loyal princes."
"Then Prince Li will not have these problems when he enters the court?" Prince Li is the only son of the consort of Wei.
Qi Baoer smiled, "Dad, those who serve the Prince Consort may not necessarily serve Prince Li. If you think about the Zhenbei Army, Wu Haoyuan is already a mighty general. He wants to subdue the Zhenbei Army led by his own father.
, it will take quite a bit of effort.”
As for friendship, the gap is almost gone within one generation, and Prince Li doesn't have a palace to guard his consort. Even with his consort as his assistant, as far as the emperor is concerned, he won't be able to make big waves.
"Moreover, the emperor himself is very happy for Prince Li to join the dynasty, because Prince Li is the prince's son."
This is something not many people even know about in Beijing.
Qi Kang'an didn't care much about these. He just confirmed the position of each person on this trip and had a map in his mind.
At this moment, he was feeling happy in his heart. His daughter would never say this to him before. Now that he told him this, does it mean that he is much smarter than before in her heart?!
The father and daughter turned on the small stove and then went back to their houses to sleep.
After that, everyone stayed in Pingcheng for another two days. During these two days, Qi Baoer basically stayed in charge. He accompanied Sha Zhao in the study room, reconciled accounts with several county magistrates, distributed disaster relief money and grain, and checked Pingcheng's arrangements for the victims.
Situation etc.
At this time, Magistrate Tiji was asked to mention it. I don’t know whether he was really ill and couldn’t afford it, or he felt ashamed to face the imperial envoy and his colleagues. He had been recuperating in his own house. When Qi Baoer and others left, only his wife and her eldest daughter were left.
He knelt down on his behalf at the door of their house.
After leaving Pingcheng, the next stop is Fengcheng.
In terms of geographical location, Pingcheng and Fengcheng can barely be considered to be on a parallel line, but Fengcheng is located upstream of the canal, so the flood-prone area is geographically more advantageous than Pingcheng, which is downstream.
.
Moreover, Liu Boxin, the magistrate of the closed city, was very talented in water control. Each city, county and town under the closed city had deep ditches dug outside the city. When there was a flood, the fields would be flooded, but the fields would be flooded when there was a flood.
All are safe.
Therefore, those who suffered the disaster when the city was closed were all the villages.
Qi Bao'er and Twelve were walking in Baishan County. Both of them had neither left nor right hands free, nor their mouths.
Twelve deeply felt that he had been led astray by the princess. When he was still in Linwei, he was not such a greedy person!
Mmm, the croquettes are so delicious.
"Miss, this Baishan County doesn't look like it has suffered a disaster." It cannot be said that the people are living in peace and contentment and staying open at night, but it can still be seen whether they have suffered a disaster.
Looking at the bustle on this street, there are poor people rushing to make a living, and rich people strolling leisurely. In short, there are no victims with numb eyes and hopeless lives.
Speaking of which... "Miss, we haven't seen much of the victims along the way."
Unlike when escorting people to transport relief supplies, the closer they get to the disaster area, the greater the number of victims. At the highest point, they have to stop and give way to the victims in full vigilance.
On the way from the closed city, there were not no victims, but the number was very small, and the counties and towns passing by would take in the victims. When we arrived in Baishan County, the county closest to the closed city, there were no traces of victims outside the county.
Just,, I find it quite incredible.
Qi Baoer buried his head and whined at the croquettes and had no time to pay attention to him.
Upon seeing this, Twelve hurriedly ate his share. The princess of his family was not a showy person. She often snatched food from her subordinates.
The two of them didn't encounter anyone trying to steal the men or women, so they had a smooth meal and returned to the inn with a bunch of things.
During this trip, they had already dispersed. There were no kings, princesses, generals, or even soldiers. They only had escorts and the rich masters, young masters and ladies they were protecting.
When they came to Baishan County, only Qi Baoer brought twelve and a team of twenty "bodyguards". Qi Kang'an and others also brought "bodyguards" or bodyguards. At this moment, they were in other places.
in towns.
However, I didn't encounter anything lively when I was out on the street, but I returned to the inn and witnessed a commotion.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the door, a big thing was thrown in front of them with a bang. A closer look revealed that this big thing was a real person.
The man ignored the people around him, got up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and rushed into the inn again.
Then, there was a loud crash, and tables, chairs and benches flew everywhere, accompanied by the hurried shouts of the shopkeeper and waiters trying to stop the fight.
Twelve, who was standing in front of Qi Bao'er, pulled at a man next to him who was also watching the excitement, "What's going on here?"
"Hey, it's not just for the girls of the Fang family.
Among the two people fighting inside, one was the concubine of Mr. Zhou, the governor of Fengcheng, and was already engaged to the second girl of the Fang family;
The other is the eldest son of the county magistrate of our county. The disaster has been severe for many years, and he and the second girl of the Fang family often go to charity outside the city. The two of them got close and developed a relationship. The Fang family broke off their engagement with the Zhou family, and the second girl of the Fang family
The girl was engaged to the eldest son of Si Xian Cheng.
Then you see, Young Master Zhou came here to avenge his wife because he felt uncomfortable."
It turns out to be a folk romance.
Twelve was not very interested and was not prepared to inquire further.
On the contrary, the man who was asked was a talkative man. He didn't ask any questions and just kept talking on his own initiative.
