Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 257

"The student thanked you sir." Mao Mingxuan said.

"Speaking of which, you will soon be an official in the court, and we will all serve for the Lord Long Live together in the future." Fang Zhifu said.

The people around all showed envious expressions when they heard it, and someone asked, "Is the number one scholar already appointed?"

Song Mingyi also looked at Mao Mingxuan enviously.He went back to Yangzhou for half a month and has not filled a vacancy so far.After making up for his envy, he was envious, but he wasn't jealous at all.Who made him the champion?Being liked by the Long Live Lord, it is not unusual for him to be appointed early.

Mao Mingxuan smiled and said, "Well, I have already received the appointment. This time, I will go home and have a look before taking office."

"Where is the gap?" Fang Zhifu asked.

"The magistrate of Zibo County." Mao Mingxuan replied.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the people present were different.

"Good place." Fang Zhifu smiled and said, "It can be seen that Long Live Lord wants to train you."

"Yeah, this is a good place!" Someone echoed.

Mao Mingxuan smiled and said nothing.Judging from everyone's reactions just now, he knew that some people really thought it was good, while others didn't think so.

Qipin county magistrate, although the official position is not high, but he really has real power.If you want to have a big development in the future, it is actually beneficial to start with the county magistrate in a down-to-earth manner.

However, in the eyes of many people, a seventh-rank sesame official is not as good as a Beijing official.But I don't know that if he really entered the Imperial Academy, it would be a false job, and it would be difficult to make great progress.

After the meeting, when all the guests were present, the magistrate asked people to sit in and asked the invited theater troupe to prepare for the performance.

Mao Mingxuan had no choice but to sit down next to the prefect Fang, attracting the attention of everyone present.Fortunately, with Fang Ruohong by his side, he wasn't too reserved.

Mao Chengyun has been talking to his colleagues since entering the mansion.He is not good at dealing with Fang Zhifu.Seeing that Fang Zhifu only pulled Mao Mingxuan to talk, he was not worried, but heaved a sigh of relief.His son is more social than he is, which comforts him.This also shows that the son is more suitable for officialdom than him, and can go farther than him in the future.

Of course, Mao Chengyun also heard a lot of compliments today.This is the first time he has been complimented by so many people in his many years as an official.Knowing that many of the words were lies, he was still happy in his heart.It's all because Mao Mingxuan is promising, and even the Ama with him has a long face.

In the middle of the play, Mao Mingxuan got up and left the seat for convenience.

After leaving the garden and standing under the corridor, he breathed a sigh of relief.Having met Kangxi, he is not afraid of meeting the magistrate.But after all, a little uncomfortable.This will come out, but I actually want to breathe out, not really wanting to be convenient.

"Brother Mingxuan!" Song Mingyi watched Mao Mingxuan come out and followed him.

"It's convenient for you to come out too?" Mao Mingxuan smiled.

Song Mingyi chuckled, and the two of them knew each other.

"Master Zhifu is really warm to you." Song Mingyi said.

"Be courteous for nothing." Mao Mingxuan said with a smile.

"How dare you say it." Song Mingyi opened his eyes wide.

Mao Mingxuan smiled, changed the subject and said, "Brother Song's matter has been resolved?"

"Wait." He sighed helplessly, "You know the conditions of my family. There is not much money that can be taken out. There is no other way but to wait."

"I'll ask Ama another day to see if I can help." Mao Mingxuan said.

"Don't bother. Lord Mao is a military officer, so it's not easy to help." Song Mingyi shook his head, and suddenly lowered his voice, "I've already asked Lord Zhifu."

Mao Mingxuan frowned slightly, but he also knew that Song Mingyi had no choice, so he said, "In that case, I can only wish Brother Song good luck."

Song Mingyi smiled and said, "I don't have the skills of brother Mingxuan, so I can only resign myself to fate."

"Don't be discouraged, there might be a chance at some point." Mao Mingxuan encouraged him.

"Yeah." Song Mingyi nodded, and said, "It's been a while since I came out, isn't Brother Mingxuan planning to return to the table?"

"Well, let's go back together." Mao Mingxuan nodded.

The two turned around and prepared to go back to the garden.

"Which one is Mao Mingxuan?" A female voice came from the path beside the corridor.

The two of them were taken aback for a moment, and when they looked back, they saw a girl in pink walking over with a little maid.

"Brother Mingxuan, it seems to be the prefect's daughter." Song Mingyi whispered.

Mao Mingxuan immediately thought of Fang Ruoyu, the magistrate's wife that Mrs. Chen mentioned yesterday, who asked her to be a matchmaker.

He had met Fang Ruoyun, the eldest daughter of the magistrate, she was Fang Ruohong's biological sister.This person who has never met before, presumably is Fang Ruoyu, the concubine of Fang Zhifu.

After a while, Fang Ruoyu walked up to Mao Mingxuan and Song Mingyi, and asked again: "Which one is Mao Mingxuan?"

"Yes." Mao Mingxuan replied politely.

Fang Ruoyu glanced at Song Mingyi, and said, "I have something to tell Mao Mingxuan, can you avoid it?"

Mao Mingxuan frowned slightly, and said, "Girl, it seems inappropriate for you and me to talk alone."

Song Mingyi was about to leave, but after hearing what Mao Mingxuan said, he took back the steps he had taken.

Fang Ruoyu frowned and said, "I'm not afraid of a girl, what are you afraid of?"

Mao Mingxuan smiled lightly, and said, "I'm timid, and I can't bear the responsibility of destroying the girl's family name."

Fang Ruoyu's face darkened, and he said, "You are a big man, why are you so upset! I just have a few words to say to you!"

"I don't know the girl, so I don't think we have anything to say. Please respect yourself, girl. I'll take my leave first." Mao Mingxuan said, then turned around and gave Song Mingyi a hug.

"Mao Mingxuan!" Fang Ruoyu shouted suddenly.

Mao Mingxuan didn't stop, only to hear Fang Ruoyu say from behind: "What's so proud of you! You're just a seventh-rank county magistrate! I can't look down on you!"

Song Mingyi glanced at Mao Mingxuan in surprise, and saw that his face was calm and he was walking quickly without looking sideways, so he had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart.

When the two returned to their seats, Fang Ruohong asked Mao Mingxuan, "Why have you been here for so long?"

"Brother Fang, there are many guests in your house today, and the management of the backyard is a bit loose." Mao Mingxuan said in a neutral tone.

"Huh? Brother Mingxuan, what do you mean?" Fang Ruohong frowned, obviously there was something in his words.

"Brother Fang, I can't tell you clearly, you can find out after looking up." Mao Mingxuan said.

Hearing what he said, Fang Ruohong really couldn't ask more questions.But in his heart, he thought about going to investigate later. What happened to Mao Mingxuan in such a short period of time?The management of the backyard is loose, could it be that he met a female family member?
But there is a banquet in the mansion today, which has been notified long ago.Because there will be a lot of male guests, I also specially ordered that the door connecting the backyard and the front yard be closed to prevent anyone from entering by mistake.Who is breaking the rules?
