The koi wife dressed as the male protagonist of the imperial examination

Chapter 259 Accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger

The so-called three-entry house refers to a house with three courtyards, and each courtyard has main rooms, wing rooms, lower rooms, even rain corridors, and so on.

Naturally, it is much better than the courtyard they rented before and the official residence where Li Xiuping lived. Not only that, but the backyard is across the two front yards.

There is a small garden in the backyard, which is not comparable to the garden in Prince An's Mansion that Li Xiuping had seen before.

But compared with his current official title and the three-entry house in the capital, it is already very good.

What Li Xiuping didn't know was that the Hubu Shangshu had already known the news in advance before the order from above came down to give him a promotion.

It was an old fox, who had already noticed that this was an important minister that His Majesty had deliberately trained, and was willing to sell him a favor in private.

So before knowing that Li Xiuping was about to be reused, he had already selected the mansion to be given to him, and sent people to repair it in advance.

In particular, the Hubu Shangshu was very thoughtful, knowing that Master Li wanted to live with his family.

And his parents were both farmers, so they must be interested in a wild and bigger garden?
Therefore, it can be said that the Hubu Shangshu chose such a house for Li Xiuping with great effort.

At this moment, it is spring and flowers and trees are planted inside, but they are not very luxuriant, and some places are barren with weeds.

Li Xiuping and Fang Qingqing didn't feel anything yet, but old man Li and Mrs. Shi were very happy to see it.

The big garden in this yard is great. I can grow my own vegetables and raise pigs and chickens in the future.

Uh, it’s fine to raise pigs, the taste is not very good.

After all, Saburo is going to be a high official, what kind of official residence will be called in the future, and the rumor that there are pigs in the mansion is not very good.

But you can raise some chickens and ducks yourself, and you can also grow some vegetables, cabbage, shallots, and garlic. It’s good to be able to supply it yourself.

In addition, the second elder also has one most satisfying place, this three-entry mansion includes exactly three houses.

It just so happens that when the time comes, Dalang Erlang and Saburo's family will live in one yard, and they will not live together completely, so there will be less barriers, but it will be convenient to walk around because they are all next door.

The three sons haven't separated yet, and in Li's old man Shi's heart, the two elders don't want them to separate until they close their eyes.

Old man Li has a big heart, but Shi's heart is very clear, the three sons are all good.

Daughter-in-law, each has her own little thoughts;
Uh, of course she didn't mean Qingqing, that child is the best in the world.

It refers to the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law. They didn't say anything, but Shi's heart is clear.

In those years, they all had opinions in their hearts when they asked the two of them to accompany the third child to study together.

Just because of the old man and her authority at home, she was suppressed.

But now, Saburo is an official, and they all hope that they can follow Zhanguang, and they will not think about the problem of dividing the family anymore.

But Shi Shi was also afraid that Saburo wanted to be a good official and serve the common people, and it would be inappropriate for his family members to be unable to help them and drag them down instead.

Even if she hadn't experienced it herself, she had lived in the capital for more than half a year and heard a lot of gossips from her neighbors.

Just a few years ago, Mrs. Shi heard a story about a family member of a high-ranking official who used to live a few streets ahead, with whom she had a good time with now, Mrs. Jin.

Oh, by the way, Mrs. Jin's granddaughter-in-law was pregnant, and then Qingqing helped her granddaughter-in-law take care of her body.

I hope that I can have a white and fat child. Mrs. Jin said that it is good whether it is a boy or a girl.

It doesn't matter even if it blooms first, the flowering and fruiting will be the same. In short, Mrs. Jin is very grateful to Doctor Xiaofang.

From time to time, I send some small things over, sometimes they are planted in my own yard, to express my affection.

Shi Shi is not the kind who will die to take advantage of others, if the family makes small snacks, he will send some over, and the two of them are getting better and better.

Mrs. Jin said that the person in the front house was originally a high-ranking official.

He and his wife are also good people, they are honest officials and they don't bully innocent people.

However, his parents and father are still there, and there is a younger brother who is useless.

His younger brother did a lot of bad things under his banner, but was found out. It is said that His Majesty the Emperor was furious.

The high official was ransacked and exiled, and the whole family was arrested and escorted to the north.

When talking about this, Mrs. Jin still had a sad expression on her face:

"That official doesn't even know about it. His youngest daughter is only three years old, poor child. It's all because of his brother."

If it was said that the official master didn't know at all, Shi Shi didn't quite believe it.

But this has nothing to do with Shi Shi, but through this incident, she knew that being an official can benefit the family.

But at the same time, after he became an official and gained power, if his family members did something wrong, he would be implicated and he would not be an official.

When the time comes to move here, the main house in the middle must be Sanlang's residence, after all, this is his mansion.

Shi, she and the old man lived in the main house with Saburo, and also helped to restrain the eldest and the second, and don't go outside to do bad things just because the third is promoted.

Then I began to imagine in my mind, there are many rooms on the side of the main house, which one is better for Saburo to build a new house?

With their own mansion, Saburo and Qingqing will worship and get married here.

Shi Shi thought happily, after getting married, Qingqing would soon conceive a child, and the child born by both of them would not be bad.

She and the old man are still in good health, so they will help them take care of their children when the time comes.

Li Xiuping was waiting for an auspicious day before moving, but he found out that the three of them were promoted together.

Salary, monthly silver and so on have also risen together. It is said that he is now at the same level as Jingrui and Xu Zifan. Why did the emperor just give him a mansion?
After all, Li Xiuping is not clear about many things in the court, especially the wind direction.

So his consistent principle of doing things is to listen more, watch more and talk less. Anyway, being loyal to the emperor and loving the people is a must, and let everything else follow fate.

Just like that, Li Xiuping, who became a bachelor's attendant, continued to work, but this time he didn't just go to the Imperial Academy every day to clock in and go to work.

In the past, it was said that they were Jinshi and the emperor's disciples, but it was just a way of saying, even if the second class was left aside, it was just the top three who were born in the first class.

That happens every three years, and the cumulative number of disciples of the emperor does not know how many there are.

However, it has been nearly 20 years since Emperor Hongwen ascended the throne. How many people really relied on the imperial examinations to enter the Sacred Heart and become his capable ministers?

For example, in the last imperial examination, there were three Jinshi and No. [-] candidates, and they are still in the Hanlin Academy for qualifications.

If His Majesty the Emperor doesn't reuse them, it may be like that for a lifetime.

The work of the Imperial Academy is very leisurely, and the officials of the Imperial Academy are noble, which also means that life is just that fate.

To become a bachelor's servant, there are many more opportunities, at least every few days you can serve the emperor by his side.

At least in this way, there are more chances to meet the emperor, so why worry about not being able to make a comeback?
Opportunities and dangers coexist, and there is a saying that "accompanying the emperor is like accompanying the tiger". If you accidentally offend the Tian family, the consequences will be terrible.
