Because I didn’t take much medicine before, I asked Xiaocao what it meant. I immediately poured a few pills and mixed them with warm water. I ate them easily without any signs of nausea. This was probably because Mrs. Wenren had been taking medicine these years.

The smoothest meal I have ever had.

"Fourth girl, you have troubled yourself."

"Don't worry, as long as grandma is good, it's worth it." Xiaocao said with a smile.

Xiaocao chatted with Mrs. Wenren for a while before leaving.

After returning from Mrs. Wenren's place, Han called Xiaocao to formally meet her family. Naturally, she needed to prepare some gifts. Not to mention the elders, her younger brothers and sisters, as well as her nephews and nieces,

They are all needed. Since Xiaocao was empty-handed, Han had naturally prepared these things for her.

Regarding the preferences of Wen Ren's masters, Han basically knows that they really have no sense of existence. Just ask anyone and you will know that the reason why they do their best to do what they like is just to help Xiaocao.

Everyone should actually know their favorability, but this is actually a matter of attitude.

Now I just ask Xiaocao to take a look at it, and I have an idea in my mind.

Xiaocao nodded naturally, there must be nothing wrong with it.

At this moment, a servant came to report that the eldest master had returned and was in the front study with several other lords and the eldest young master.

"Did dad go to the office so early?" Xiaocao looked at the clock and saw that it was only Shen Zhengsan quarter, which was only four-forty-fifty.

"Holy Lord, as long as things are done well and he is not a harsh person, he will go to the office in the afternoon when he is not busy. Of course, this is usually done by people who have private matters. They usually stay until Shen Zheng is around, and

If you are busy, it is normal to rest in the Yamen at night. Just after the examination, the etiquette department pretended that there is not much to do for the time being, and it is quite normal to go to the Yamen at this time. Besides, there is a family dinner today, and I sent someone to the Yamen to meet with

Your father said, I still think your father came back late." Han said with a smile.

Xiaocao thought to himself, this emperor is quite humane. As for the rest, Xiaocao eats it like dog food.

During the two or three years in Kaiping, I did hear a lot of people's words of praise for today's virtues.

"Go and talk to the uncle, and come over after he has finished talking to the other masters." Han ordered.

"only."

A quarter of an hour later, the maid came again to report, "Madam, Cheng Huiyuan is here. The uncle asked someone to say that the time is a bit off."

"I know." Han waved his hand and asked people to go down.

Xiaocai thought that Cheng Huiyuan was his personal name, but then he thought that as a maid, it was impossible for him to address his guests by their first names, and then he realized that he should be referring to the leader of this meeting.

The imperial city of Kaiping is always lively for a period of time during the triennial examination, even in the slums.

The last time I tried it, Xiaocao didn't catch up, but this time I got to experience it. Of course, to her, there was actually no difference.

The imperial examination is the real way to cross a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops. To be the leader of the examination, this person must be extraordinary, but no matter how extraordinary, in Xiaocao's eyes, he is still the same, a person from two completely different fields.

, there will be no intersection.

Besides, even if you are the final number one pick, your future may not be bright.

Although the number one scholar is rare, only one comes every three years, but it is only one every three years, and there are a lot of Jinshi competing in the same year.

The results were only released in the first two days of the general examination. Even if there were people who had connections under various names, they would not be able to do it in such a short time. Therefore, Cheng Huiyuan probably "hooked up" with the famous man Tai Bo before the general examination.

Or maybe he is related to the Wen family. By the way, "Mom, you still don't know about my father's position in the court."

"Minister of Rites."

Xiaocao only had a rough understanding of the official system of the Qi Dynasty. When she was studying with Ting Yu, she heard Mr. Che say that although in ancient times, young prime ministers existed, under the prosperous and peaceful dynasty, most of them still paid attention to

In terms of seniority, especially for civil servants, it is quite remarkable that her father can sit in the position of the third rank at the age of more than 40 years old.

After all, in this rank, the military commanders hold the real power, while the civil servants are mostly given false titles. For example, the Six Ministers and the Imperial Envoy are both full and second-rank official positions, but they basically have first-rank and first-rank titles, which is a bit special.

The situation is that those with lower grades are all given titles. These people all have double salaries. Of course, if they have a title, it will be even more powerful.

But now it seems that none of the three are the same.

Speaking of which, the founding ancestor of Qi Dynasty conquered the world with real force. Therefore, from the very beginning, the status of civil officials in Qi Dynasty was slightly lower than that of military officials. Just like in local areas, the highest civil officials in Qi Dynasty were from the second rank to the second rank.

The highest military rank is the second rank.

However, as time went by, the country became more peaceful and the people were more peaceful, and the status of civilian officials tended to slightly suppress that of military officials.

In the peaceful and prosperous times, this seems to be a necessity, the country should be governed by culture and the country should be governed by martial arts.

Xiaocao praised her sincerely, and Han was naturally happy. However, looking at her daughter, she had more thoughts in her heart. "The ancestral land of Cheng Huiyuan and our Wen family belong to the same state, but belong to two counties.

But they were relatively close. Before entering the imperial city to take the exam, I got a letter from Zhizhou. Zhizhou was your father's disciple. He felt that Cheng Huiyuan was quite good, and he wanted to support him in order to gain more connections. Your father was very impressed when he met him.

Appreciation, handsome appearance, in his twenties, upright but not pedantic, smooth but just right. Although his family is poor, he is determined and motivated, and he is extremely filial. He has not yet married a wife, but there is only one widow in the family...

"

Xiaocai listened quietly at first, but why did it seem that something was wrong the more she listened?

When Han met Xiaocao's emotional eyes, he immediately woke up and made a mistake. "...I didn't expect that he would win the first place in the examination. Your father is extremely happy. I think he will be able to do so in the palace examination in a few days."

You can achieve great results.”

Xiaocao nodded without saying anything extra.

Han felt regretful, knowing that she was anxious, but she did feel that Cheng Wenzheng was good, had good conduct, and had a simple family. Although the age difference was five or six years old, it was just a small matter. The most important thing, according to Xuan'er's situation, Cheng Wenzheng was her

The best candidate I can think of is just Xuan'er, I'm afraid it won't work.

Cheng Wenzheng has not even decided to get married yet. The purpose is obvious. His family background is not good. He just wants to find a good marriage after passing the Jinshi examination, which will help his future. After the imperial examination, the marriage will be arranged immediately.

On the schedule, the person she likes, and others are not blind, maybe there will be a story about "catching a coward under the ranking".

Her family, Xuan'er, just can't be in a hurry.

Wen Renying stood outside the door, except that the handkerchief in her hand was tightened, but there was nothing unusual about her face.
