my wife is mulan

Wan Ming sighed at this point, and made Wan Zhen bow his head in shame. He changed the subject and said, "There is a rule in the imperial court that each student has only three opportunities to take the scientific examination, and if he fails to pass the examination more than three times, he cannot take the examination again. But if you only want to study and take the scientific examination, you will not do anything. If you really fail the examination at that time, you will be old and your ambition will be exhausted. What else can you do? So, I thought about letting He needs to find something to do first! Aunt, you are the only one born in our Wan family. Brother, I can only ask you to help this nephew. Our old Wan family is just such a single seedling. It’s so wasteful, I believe that as long as he has your sister to support him, he will definitely have a bright future!”

Wan Yutong put down his needle and thread, looked at Wan Zhen and asked, "What do you think about Zhen'er? Do you want to continue studying hard and take the scientific examination in three years' time, or start working now? If you start working now, do you want to do it?" Do you want to pursue an official career, or do you want to do something else?"

Wan Zhen clasped his hands and said, "My nephew's aptitude is dull. I'm afraid I won't pass the exam even if I study for another three years. My nephew still has this self-knowledge, so I don't want to take the exam! If I want to do things, my nephew still wants to go into an official career. After all, I am a scholar. After reading so many books, I still want to apply what I have learned to serve the court.”

Wan Yutong put the needlework and baby clothes in the basket, and said to Wanzhen, "We are our own family, and my aunt won't tell you anything. It's not easy to be a big official. Being an official for thousands of miles is just to make a lot of money, but now a big official wants to make a fortune. If you want to make a fortune, Auntie still advises you to go into business. Auntie will give you the title of imperial merchant. Now, you can guarantee that the money you earn in this life will not be spent in several lifetimes; but if you want to be an official, you must not do it for the sake of getting rich. I can't save you either!

Also, if you want to become an official, Auntie can find a way to help you get into an official career, but you also know that since the founding of the country, His Majesty has promoted the selection of talents through imperial examinations. This is almost an unwritten rule of the Daqian court. Of course, over the years, there have been many people who have been recognized by His Majesty because of their ranking in the imperial examinations, but all of them are great talents.Auntie can pave a way for you, but you can only rely on yourself to what extent you can go! "

Wan Ming immediately pulled Wan Zhen's clothes, "Kowtow to your aunt!"

Wan Zhen bowed down and said, "Thank you, aunt, for your teaching. Zhen'er will keep it in mind!"

Wan Yutong wanted to keep the father and son for dinner in Xiyuan, but there were too many rules in this palace, they always felt uncomfortable, so they declined Wan Yutong's kindness and left.

On this day, Zhao Junsheng came to Xiyuan, and Wan Yutong had someone prepare a hearty meal.

He walked to the dining table to have a look, and said with a smile, "Hey, today's food is good!"

Wan Yutong came over with a jug of wine and said, "I have something to ask you, so naturally I will serve you!" After speaking, he began to pour wine for Zhao Junsheng.

Zhao Junsheng was quite surprised, "Hey, I remember that since we met more than 20 years ago, you never seem to ask me, is this the first time?"

"I don't remember, maybe! You just said you agreed or not?"

Zhao Junsheng took a sip from the wine bottle and said solemnly, "How can I promise you that you haven't said anything yet? If you ask me to be a eunuch, then I can't do it!"

Wan Yutong couldn't help but burst out laughing, and punched him with a fist, "Nonsense, why would I let you do that! It's about my cousin Wan Ming's stepson. I took the scientific examination the other day, but failed. I didn’t want to take the exam, but wanted to come out and do something. My cousin brought him here and begged me. You also know that I’m only a relative like my cousin. It’s hard to say if you don’t help!”

Zhao Junsheng said, "That's all?"

"Yes!"

Zhao Junsheng took a piece of beef and chewed it in his mouth, "You are the imperial concubine now, ministers and officials are all scratching their heads trying to get closer to you, you just need to say a word, isn't it easy to solve this matter? Why do you want my help?"

Wan Yutong curled his lips, "Don't bully me. I don't understand. Now, both the imperial court and the local government are very strict. It is impossible for a student who has no official experience and no scientific examinations to become an official. It can't be done, and no minister or official dares to arrange it easily. The reputation of cronyism and bad rules is not good. Once there is an investigation, let alone the official position, I'm afraid there will be a prison sentence!

Besides, I don't want to have anything to do with those ministers and officials. I will be my concubine quietly and live a comfortable life with no worries!

Also, you are my husband, I can ask you for anything I want, why should I labor for others?And I also know that this official position has been an important weapon of the country since ancient times. It is not good for me, a woman, to interfere in these matters. It is easy to break the rules. You have worked so hard to establish these rules. I can't break them for you all at once! "

Zhao Junsheng already knew what kind of woman Wan Yutong was, and he was not at all worried that she would do bad things behind his back.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Junsheng waved to the eunuch Yuan Huan, and Yuan Huan stepped forward and bent down.

"You go to the Gongyuan..." Zhao Junsheng said this, and turned his head to ask, "What's his name?"

"Wan Zhen!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded, and said to Yuan Huan, "Go to the Gongyuan and transfer the exam papers of student Wan Zhen to show me!"

"promise!"

After Zhao Junsheng and Wan Yutong finished eating, drinking tea and washing up, Yuan Huan brought the examination papers from the Gong Yuan.

Zhao Junsheng opened Wanzhen's examination paper and looked at it. Judging from the examination paper, the student Wanzhen's memory is very ordinary, but he is good at arithmetic. Answered all the questions correctly, which shows that this student is very careful.

In terms of poetry and fu, Wan Zhen's level is very average; policy topics are mainly to criticize current disadvantages, Zhao Junsheng read it once, Wan Zhen's analysis in this aspect is relatively simple, and what he writes is relatively popular opinion, which is not worthy of people's attention With a bright point of view, it's no wonder the examiner didn't let him on the list.

Zhao Junsheng thought about it, picked up a pen and wrote on the examination paper "Gift to Tong Jinshi background", and handed it to Yuan Huan after writing, "Let them add a third-class quota for the first round."

There is a quota for the number of people selected for each scientific examination. If you want to increase the number of people selected, or add Enke, you must have the emperor's will. In addition, the second and third grades cannot be directly appointed as officials, and you have to study in the Imperial Academy for three years Then give an official.

Yuan Huan left, but Wan Yutong felt a little uneasy, "The release of the list has long passed, and a sudden addition of a place, how can we convince the public?"

Zhao Junsheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, no one will question the one I hand-picked! By the way, let Wan Zhen come over another day, and I'll meet him!"

"it is good!"

Chapter 961

Wan Yutong chatted casually, "I heard that you asked the third son to investigate the Heluo ink corruption case some time ago? Why doesn't there seem to be any movement these days?"

Zhao Junsheng felt a little surprised, "You also care about this?"

Wan Yutong smiled and said, "I don't care. The eunuchs and court ladies were discussing this matter a few days ago. After all, this matter is quite big. I don't want to hear it."

When Wan Yutong brought up this topic, Zhao Junsheng had to face the problem of how to deal with Yuan Gao.

Zhao Junsheng knew that if he wanted to strictly follow the law, he would have to go through the hurdles of Hua Mulan and his mother-in-law Hua Yuan, and these two hurdles were not easy. After all, Yuan Gao was close relatives of Hua Mulan and Hua Yuan. People who see their loved ones being sentenced to death without doing anything.

Even though he is an emperor, he doesn't want to make the entire royal family as cold and devoid of affection as the royal families of previous dynasties. He has been maintaining harmony among the members of the royal family in his own way, and only he has This ability is also his responsibility.

If Yuan Gao is to be dealt with according to the law, Hua Mulan and Hua Yuan's family will definitely come out to stop him, and this is also a headache for Zhao Junsheng.

But in any case, Zhao Junsheng knew that he could not allow Yuan Gao to continue poaching the corner of the Dagan Dynasty.

On the first day of April, at the court meeting, Zhao Junsheng attended the court.

The main ministers of the yamen, such as Shangshutai, Zhongshusheng, Menxiasheng, and Liubu Jiuqing, stood up one by one to report the government affairs of their respective yamen in the recent period.

After the chief officials of these yamen had finished reporting one by one, Shangshu Youpu She Weijuan stood up and reported: "Your Majesty Qizuo, the two generals Gao Jinzhi and Pi Baozi have been guarding the Western Regions and Liangzhou respectively for five years. Gao Jinzhi and Pi Baozi should be transferred away in accordance with the principle stipulated by the DPRK that the generals of the garrison cannot serve in one place for more than five years!"

Zhao Junsheng thinks that he has not seen these two people for many years, but if they are transferred away, someone must be arranged to replace them. These two positions are very important, and appropriate arrangements must be made. Candidates do.

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while and said, "If that's the case, then pass the decree to transfer Gao Jinzhi and Pi Baozi to return to the court to report on their duties! Appoint Wei Jing to take over the post of the Grand Guardian of the Western Regions Protectorate, and Lu Shuang to take over the post of Liangzhou Governor!"

"According to the order!"

The Wei family reported again: "Your Majesty, the combined training of 1 Rouran soldiers and [-] soldiers from various countries in the Western Regions in Puleihai has completed the training!"

Completing the training means forming an army. If you don't go out, you have to leave Pu Leihai and return to the interior or station in a place where supplies are easy to supply. Otherwise, you will waste a lot of food and supplies.

Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a while and issued an order: "Pass the order, and announce that Huhe rarely sees you!"

Huhehan, Rouran surrendered, and Zhao Junsheng kept him because he planned to use him to add trouble to the annoying people. In Zhao Junsheng's view, Huhehan still had some military talents, and he fought against the Northern Wei Dynasty and Dagan. There are many, and I have learned a lot of tactics and tactics.

Not long after, Huhehan walked in quickly wearing a heavy court uniform, saluted and said: "I pay homage to Your Majesty!"

Zhao Junsheng said: "Last year I signed a covenant with the Yanda people, but I didn't expect them to turn their faces and deny people within a few months, and even raised troops to attack my Daqian's Western Region. The soldiers were defeated, but Dagan could not allow them to bully them. I decided to send an army from the Western Regions to attack the Yanda people. This army was composed of 1 Rouran cavalry and [-] Western Regions. I appoint you as the chief general of this army, and there are two other lieutenants to assist you. I will give you five days to prepare and leave after five days. One and a half months to rush to Shule Kingdom to take up the post, and I will give you two more months I have been familiar with this army for a long time, and two months later I will send troops to attack the Yanda people, and I will name this army the Greedy Wolf Army!"

Hu Hehan didn't expect that Zhao Junsheng would give him such a task, he didn't have time to think about it, and immediately agreed: "Hu Hehan will obey your will!"

After Huhehan left, the minister Zhang Wei stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I am a little worried that accepting Huhehan, a Rouran surrendered general, would be a threat to the tiger. Letting him go like this is probably letting the tiger go back to the mountain!"

Wei Juan said: "Don't worry about this. From the general to the corps leader, all the officers are not from Rouran. They are either Xianbei, Di, Qiang, or Han. Most of them are Han. Sixty percent, except that there are no Rouran people, except for Huhehan, all Rouran people are just soldiers, so even if Huhehan is a general, but the two lieutenants who really control this army!"
