I became an exiled convict after we got married

Chapter 49
At the beginning of April, the government of Zhen Guo issued a betrothal gift to the Fang family.

The marriage between Wan Zhijing and Fang Biqu is formalized.

The Xinke Scholars were supposed to be awarded official positions, but it took nearly half a month, and not all of them have been awarded official positions.

According to the usual practice, all three of the first class will directly enter the Imperial Academy, but so far Wan Zhijing and Fang Xiu have not waited for the appointment documents.Not only the three first-class, but also the second-class and third-class Jinshi, many of them have no arrangements.

Lord Zhen Guo was naturally concerned about his son's future, so he frowned when he got some news after inquiring.

The Imperial Academy is a very special place. Since ancient times, all those who entered the cabinet were from the Imperial Academy, and many emperor teachers were also from the Imperial Academy.

The Imperial Academy is a place that scholars all over the world want to enter. After entering the Imperial Academy, promotion is easier than other officials.

Although Zhen Guogong never thought that Wan Zhijing would have such a great future, does the Imperial Academy have to advance?
But he actually received the news that the emperor intends to send all the new scholars to the localities this year. Not only that, the Holy Majesty also intends to select officials from the Imperial Academy and various departments in Kyoto to be sent to the localities.

Since ancient times, the Imperial Academy has been the best place to confer officials after the imperial examination.The No. [-] scholar will be directly edited by the sixth-rank Hanlin Academy, and the second-best and Tanhua will be edited by the seventh-rank Imperial Academy.And among the second-class and third-class teams, they will go through another assessment and then select those with outstanding talents to enter the Imperial Academy.

As for other Xinke Jinshi, those who have connections can start as small officials in Kyoto, and most of them will be sent to the local governments.

It is not certain when they will be able to return to the capital to be an official after they are transferred to other places.

Duke Zhen was very worried about this matter recently, and he didn't realize it until he saw the busy scene in the mansion. His eldest son and second son seemed to be getting married soon.

Shen Qing has been very busy recently, her two sons are getting married, one in May and the other in July.

The girl from the Pei family was out of the filial piety period, and the marriage of the two families was put on the agenda.The two of them have been delayed for three years, and they are not too young. Anyone who is the same age as Wan Muxing will run away.

As for the wedding date of Wan Jinlan and King Qi, it has already been set, which will be at the end of January next year.

The government has had a lot of happy events recently, and even the days with Wan Qiuyu are much easier.

Seeing that her attitude was correct and she didn't play tricks, Mammy was somewhat satisfied with her, and was praised by the old lady when she paid her respects at Jinchun Hall.

Wan Qiuyu had been waiting for news from Xiao Minghuan, and passed the news to Xiao Minghuan, who wanted to reap the benefits of King Shun. Before King Shun could make a move, the eyeliner in the palace heard that King An and Min Jieyu had a private meeting in the cold palace. information.

Although Xiao Minghuan wanted to sit back and reap the profits, he also kept his eyes on Minjiyu, just to see if the news Wan Qiuyu said was true or not.

When the news reached his ears, he really felt very complacent towards Wan Qiuyu.

No matter what Wan Qiuyu's background is, she is just a woman, if she enters his backyard, she can take him as heaven, if she wants to live a good life, don't she have to follow his face and make troubles?
In mid-April, a major earthquake occurred on the court because of the salt corruption case in the Huaihe River.

With Yangzhou as the center, most of the officials and salt merchants in the Huaihe River and Huaihe River were ransacked, exiled, and beheaded.

The Holy One sent an imperial envoy to Yangzhou to help King Qi handle the case, and sent three thousand feather guards to bring back the prisoner and the confiscated silver.

The silver taels involved in the salt rot in the land of Huaihe River and Huaihe River exceeded tens of millions of taels, and the exact amount has not yet been calculated, but once the news came out, the court was in a turmoil.

King Guangling, who was recovering from his wounds in the Guangling Palace in Kyoto, naturally had no peace, and the papers about him fell on the emperor's imperial case like snowflakes.

Officials wrote letters one after another, and must strictly investigate the accounts of King Guangling.

Guangling County is the fiefdom of King Guangling, and the Huaihe River has been a prosperous place since ancient times, but King Guangling cannot be contaminated with the salt tax of Guangling County, after all, no vassal king has this right.When there is a problem with the salt tax in his fiefdom, King Guangling will naturally be liquidated.

King Guangling dragged his sick body out of the palace in the middle of the night, and waited outside the palace gate for the morning court with an apology.

When the ministers came, they found that King Guangling was the first one waiting outside the palace gate, and they were all in a delicate mood.

While waiting for the palace gate to open, King Guangling's sickly body fell down in the early morning wind.

Even when going to court, it is against the rules to let the servants carry the golden palace on their backs.

Of course, the boy was not qualified to stand in the Golden Luan Hall, so there was a wonderful scene where all the officials were standing and waiting, and King Guangling was sitting on the floor.

After the emperor came, all the ministers knelt down and were called up. It seemed that King Guangling didn't even have the strength to stand up.

Compared with last year's winter, his stomach disappeared in just a few months, his complexion was sallow, his body was thin, and he looked like he was dying of a serious illness.

At this time, King Guangling held up the booklet in his hand, wept bitterly and said: "I have done nothing in the fiefdom, which caused the salt administration problem to endanger the treasury of Wei Dynasty. Your Majesty wants to convict the minister. I have nothing to say. After all, the minister is just a A dandy who only knows how to eat and drink has never paid attention to the affairs of the fief, and now he deserves this calamity!"

All the ministers were wondering, is King Guangling pleading guilty?It's clearly washing yourself off!
Emperor Jian'an's eyes were dark on the dragon chair, but under the cover of Mian Yu, the minister couldn't see his happiness or anger.

"King Guangling, get up quickly. You should not work too much in your current body. You should go back to your residence to recuperate."

Emperor Jian'an was extremely worried. He knew that there was something wrong with King Guangling, but he couldn't produce evidence.He had obtained the financial books of Guangling County a long time ago, but he couldn't find any mistakes.If he were to be punished for his crimes, he would not be punished for any serious crimes. After all, those who had problems were local officials appointed by the imperial court and major salt merchants.

The King of Guangling was crying out of breath, holding up the ledger with trembling hands, "Your Majesty has clearly checked that this is the ledger of Guangling County, and the ministers and brothers speak lightly, and the officials of the fief don't take the minister's land seriously. , it is the incompetence of the younger brother."

"If my younger brother hadn't been incompetent, I wouldn't have almost died on the way to the feudal clan; if my younger brother hadn't been incompetent, I wouldn't have suffered from wind and cold on the way to the capital to marry the eldest son in the winter and then died of terminal illness."

King Guangling was crying out of breath, because the court was too quiet, the lingering sound of King Guangling's crying was more distant than singing.

The eunuch Li Fu was the closest to Emperor Jian'an. Seeing the bulging veins on the back of His Majesty's hand holding the dragon chair, Li Fu also felt a little admiration for King Guangling.

All the ministers felt that King Guangling was crying so sadly, and even brought them a little bit sad.

They are all smart people, why can't they hear that there is something in King Guangling's words, some words, they should not think too much, and people who know too much have never had a good end.

"King Guangling don't need to belittle yourself. I heard that you married the princess of the mansion to the governor of Youzhou. I can't see what you mean by this move. It can be seen that you are also a clever person."

Naturally, there were staunch royalists who knew what Emperor Jian'an was thinking, and when they interrogated him on behalf of Emperor Jian'an, they became very angry as soon as they spoke.

King Guangling wiped his nose and said, "It's not that I'm incompetent. How could I have owed Youzhou Governor's life-saving grace on the way to the feudal domain. Youzhou Governor lost his son in middle age, and his wife died of grief. If I were a woman, It is necessary to repay the life-saving grace in person, but unfortunately I am not!"

"If it wasn't for my incompetence, there would be no need for my daughter to pay the debt for me. It's all because of my incompetence..."

All the ministers: "..."

So your incompetence, King Guangling, also includes not being able to turn into a woman to repay your favor?

King Guangling cried and passed out.

Everyone in the Golden Luan Hall was forced to listen to a half-hour-long "incompetent" crying scene, and every face was wonderful.

As for how much information King Guangling revealed today, the benevolent see the benevolent and the wise see wisdom?

Emperor Jian'an clenched his fists, "Please call the imperial physician."
