Although they don’t know what Wang Xifeng’s words mean, Feng’er and Xiaohong have followed Wang Xifeng for so long, and they know that although this grandma has a kind face and a cruel heart, she is really good to the people below her, and she always keeps her word.
They are still relatively trusting.
Feng'er was sold into the Jia family by his family when he was still young. He has followed Wang Xifeng since he was a child. He has always followed Wang Xifeng's lead. I am afraid that he is even more loyal to Wang Xifeng than the Jia family.
But Xiao Hong is different. She is Lin Zhixiao's daughter, and she can be regarded as a prominent member of the Jia family. But because of this, her parents told her to follow Wang Xifeng honestly. She also asked her parents why.
After all, it was only a matter of time before Wang Xifeng left the Jia Mansion, so logically she should stay in the Jia Mansion.
But the parents said that the current situation of the Jia family is not good, and eggs cannot be put in one basket. However, Wang Xifeng is a capable person. There may be other fortunes in the future. Following Wang Xifeng may not be a bad thing. Next, this will be the capital city.
The fact that Wang Xifeng took over the big business of redeeming people for this group of warriors here seems to prove this point.
Naturally, Xiaohong didn't know that someone had already told Lin Zhixiao that Uncle Feng actually knew about Lin Hongyu in their family, and seemed to have a crush on her. Although Lin Zhixiao and his wife couldn't believe it, the words came from Jia Yun's mouth.
, who is Jia Yun, how can she tell lies without any reason?
Now when it comes to the prosperous members of the Jia family, apart from Jia Lian, Jia Huan is also considered one, but he can only be said to be an immature scholar who has not yet made his mark. The one who really made his mark is Jia Yun, a member of the side branch.
No one would have thought that Jia Yun, who used to be looking for work in the mansion and wanted to make a living, would follow Feng Ziying to the Daguan Tower to take care of things, and she would suddenly become famous.
In the past few years, the steward of Daguan Tower not only appeared as a person in the capital city, but also knew many black and white people. Now he jumped out of Daguan Tower and handed it over to Jia Qiang, while he jumped onto the branch.
Cheng Fenghuang became the chief shopkeeper of Haitong Yinzhuang Jingshi, and became a luxury figure on the same level as Jia Lian. You must know that Haitong Yinzhuang has a well-connected network, and the emperor's biological brother, Prince Zhongshun, and a large number of royal family members are all shareholders.
, it can be said that Jia Yun is rich and powerful, but Jia Yun can be the chief shopkeeper in the most prestigious capital, which shows her extraordinary status now.
But everyone knows that it was all because of Xiao Feng Xiuzuan that he could achieve such a rapid rise to the top, and the relationship between the two can be seen. So Jia Yun said that Xiao Feng Xiuzuan fell in love with Hong Yu, which naturally made Lin Zhixiao and his wife excited.
No matter what, even if it is a girl who has a common roommate, it can be regarded as a shortcut. If the house is taken away and a boy and a half girl are born, wouldn't the Feng family's current power turn the black chicken into a phoenix immediately?
What's more, Lin Zhixiao, the general manager in charge of the bank account, knows the current situation of the Jia family best. He has been demolishing the east wall to repair the west wall for many years. If he hadn't made a fortune from investigating the Lai family at the beginning of last year, he would have to do it now.
We can't support it anymore, otherwise why would Second Mistress Lian be so eager to hand over power? Jia Lian hasn't come back yet.
Because of this, Lin Zhixiao and his wife made careful plans before letting their daughter make up her mind to follow Wang Xifeng.
Wang Xifeng himself is not an idle person, he has the Wang family behind him, and now he has some connections with Xiao Feng Xiuzan. He has made a living by redeeming people with military honors in the capital. He will definitely have other affairs in the future, so he may not be able to do well.
Although it is still unclear what the relationship between this second mistress and Xiao Feng Xiuzuan is, and Lin Zhixiao and his wife have not dared to think about it for the time being, Lin Hongyu is already vaguely suspicious, especially the strange sounds and sounds that night.
Uncle Feng's movements are all suspicious. Anyway, the second mistress has reconciled with the second master Lian, so there doesn't seem to be so much scruples in this regard. In addition, Xiao Feng's well-known reputation for writing seems to be even more disturbing.
People think this way.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in this wealthy family. Lin Hongyu would inevitably hear some "anecdotes" in this regard when following her parents.
Over there, Wang Xifeng had various thoughts, but here Feng Ziying was still chattering with Jia She and Jia Zheng.
However, Jia She fell silent after saying a few words to Feng Ziying. He seemed to be wandering, probably thinking about how much money he had earned this time. However, Jia Zheng was uncharacteristically speaking and became more talkative.
.
Jia Zheng has obtained the clerical and official certificates. After the twentieth day of the first lunar month, he will set off for Jiangxi to serve as an academic administrator.
This should be the biggest benefit that Jia Yuanchun has gained for the Jia family by entering the palace, but Feng Ziying does not think that Jia Zheng will have much success if he goes to Jiangxi to become an academic official, and it may even be very difficult.
Academic administration is just a common name. It is generally called the inspector, also known as the academic platform. The responsibility of this position is to assist the provincial governors in managing scientific examinations and education affairs. In a sense, this is not a fixed position.
Because there is no fixed rank, it can range from seventh rank to second rank. In nature, it is more like an envoy sent by the imperial court, but it also has a term of office, generally speaking, it is three years.
The problem is that this academic administration position is quite special. It is in charge of imperial examinations and education. Although there are no explicit regulations, generally speaking, it requires two rankings of Jinshi to be able to serve as academic administration. In other words, you must at least have some attainments in classics, poetry, and essays.
, only then can you convince the public, and only then can you take charge of the academic affairs of a province.
But what about Jia Zheng? He was not from a scholarly family, and he had no experience of being admitted to the imperial examinations twice. Feng Ziying felt that this was full of malice when he went to study politics in Jiangxi, which has a strong academic atmosphere. She didn’t know how Jia Zheng could not notice it.
Resign?
Although it is true that there is no hard and fast rule that academic qualifications must be from the imperial examination, this customary rule among scholars is even more stringent than the court regulations. Feng Ziying cannot imagine how Jia Zheng would have been able to survive the past three years after going to Jiangxi. I am afraid it will be more than a torment.
Still uncomfortable.
"Since Uncle Shi wants to go to Jiangxi, it must be very good. Jiangxi has a strong academic style, and Uncle Shi has a humble personality. It is just a good opportunity to make friends with the scholars in Jiangxi. It can also be regarded as a way to raise hopes."
Opportunity,……"
Feng Ziying said some insincere words, but the expression on her face was very natural, and there was no clue about it.
If you go to Jiangxi to study politics, this statement will definitely be more appropriate, but if you replace Jia Zheng, who has never even passed the imperial examination, will those scholars in Jiangxi sell your face? Even if you are Jia Zheng's son-in-law
, no one would give me face like this.
It's just that it's a foregone conclusion that Jia Zheng will go to Jiangxi, so what's the use of saying some unpleasant things? Fortunately, Jia Zheng has a good temper and respects scholars in particular. Just look at the group of Qing guests around him, so even if he is in office
If I get a little angry, it probably won't be a big deal. The worst thing I can do is just goof around. It's a job to assist the chief envoy. Even if I'm a hand-off shopkeeper, I still have to live this life.
"Haha, thank you Ziying for your kind words. You also know that Uncle Yu has spent some time studying in the past few years, but after all, he can't compare with you serious people who have passed the imperial examination, so Uncle Yu went to Jiangxi.
I plan to visit some famous scholars first, such as Mr. Hai Ruo..." Although he hasn't gone yet, Jia Zheng is already considering his next move.
Tang Xianzu was a famous scholar in Linchuan, and his name spread all over the south of the Yangtze River. It makes sense that Jia Zheng went to visit Tang Xianzu first, but it is hard to say whether Tang Xianzu would meet Jia Zheng. He might just be turned away. These scholars will not buy you a political education.
face.
“Well, Shibo can post some posts to express his attitude after taking office, and then make calculations...” Feng Ziying did not dare to accept this, so she could only speak vaguely.
"Well, Uncle Yu has his own reasons. There are scholars from Jiangyou, and Uncle Yu also understands that they must be arrogant and may even embarrass Uncle Yu, but Uncle Yu won't care about it..."
Jia Zheng's attitude made Feng Ziying relieved. As long as she was mentally prepared, she would not be so angry that she could not step down, and she could even appear to be free and generous.
"My nephew also knows a few Jiangyou scholars, but they are all juniors. Although they are somewhat famous in their hometown, they are officials in Beijing and observe the government. My nephew will also ask them to write letters back to invite them to visit their hometown.
Master and classmates, don’t make things too difficult for Uncle Shi,..."
Feng Ziying’s words made Jia Zheng very happy. He was waiting for these words from Feng Ziying.
Although he knew that he would definitely get offended when he went to Jiangxi, how to avoid being too ugly was also a skill. As long as there was someone to help soothe his cheeks, and if he had a more humble and sincere attitude, he would probably be able to get through this.
When he has served two terms as an academician and has returned to Beijing after three or six years, he will no longer have to hang out in the Ministry of War, but can find a noble yamen and live a comfortable life.
Jia Zheng certainly knows that it will be difficult for him to become an academician, but the more difficult it is, the more generous the rewards will be.
As long as he blocks the academic administration, even if he is shameless, he can at least gain a good reputation among the scholars. In the future, no matter which yamen he works in in Beijing, when he mentions himself, he can be said to have been there somewhere.
In studying politics, you have to look at yourself with unusual eyes, and the officials can also look at you highly. This is what Jia Zheng wants. After coming back, he will go to Honglu Temple, Taichang Temple, and Guanglu Temple to find a leisure position.
Not beautiful?
Feng Ziying also saw the purpose of Jia Zheng's nagging talk to her for a long time, but he couldn't bear to refuse Jia Zheng's pleading eyes. In addition, there were some Jiangyou scholars in Qingtan Academy who were very busy and wanted to say no.
The acquaintance must be a lie, so it is not difficult to say hello, but he cannot guarantee how effective it will be, but the gesture must at least be clear.
Who told her to marry his niece and niece, or even miss their daughter? Feng Ziying thought to herself, what if she really turned into her father-in-law in the future?
