The more Zhao Qingyan thought about it, the more upset she became.
But what needs to be faced still needs to be faced.
The Zhao brothers all naturally hoped that their parents and children could stay in the capital.
Zhao Qianci and Huang Shi followed their daughter wherever she went.
Zhao Qinglin and Zhao Qinghe followed their parents wherever they went.
As for getting married, the two sisters didn't take it seriously at all.
After discussing the matter to no avail, the Zhao family, despite being about to take up their posts, still wondered if they could postpone it for a few more days, since they still had four sons in the family who hadn't been appointed to their posts yet.
Since the three Zhao brothers were appointed to official positions, Zhao Qingyan has already sent messages to Lingnan by hawk.
In the orphanages of Qingyang County and Lingnan Prefecture, children aged 12 and above who passed all tests, especially those with outstanding physical abilities,
Based on the principle of voluntariness, those who are willing to accompany their husbands to their posts can be escorted by a security escort agency.
If any members of the Zhao family in Zhao Village wish to go out and broaden their horizons, it is still entirely voluntary, and they can go with the children from the orphanage.
No matter where you go, if you want to govern a place well, the first thing you need to develop is the economy.
Another issue is maintaining public order; sometimes, violent suppression is the most effective means.
Upon receiving the message delivered by the flying eagle, Zhao Jinfa also received 1,000 taels of silver notes.
Used for ancestor worship and purchasing clan land.
Everyone has dreams.
When you're starving, all you think about is being able to eat your fill.
When it's time to have enough to eat, the thought is that it would be even better if we could eat refined rice, flour, and meat.
When we can eat refined rice, flour and meat, we think it would be even better to eat delicacies from land and sea.
When given the opportunity to transcend social classes, probably 90% of people would want to seize it.
After all, not everyone dares to step out of their comfort zone.
Although in Zhao Family Village, there is no shortage of food and clothing, and one can work in the workshop.
But if they went out into the world, men might become constables, and women might become managers in workshops.
Whether it's income, children's future, or the world they've seen, none of these can compare to being a typical peasant.
Soon, the three groups of people had assembled.
Each team, including adults and children, numbered around 200 people. Under the arrangement of Han Sifang and Han Santong of Wangyue Tower, they set off in different directions.
The common feature of the three groups was that, regardless of gender, they all carried weapons.
Ordinary people were not allowed to carry knives casually.
Therefore, they carried daggers, kitchen knives, machetes, hoes, and sickles.
There's really nothing special about it, just a sturdy wooden stick. Some women, on the other hand, are carrying frying pans.
This thing is really great; it can be used for both offense and defense. One shovelful of it and the opponent will be completely confused.
The children can't lift anything too heavy, but they do have hammers and axes.
Anyway, no one goes empty-handed.
Wherever this force went, confusion spread, and everyone kept their distance.
Some people thought they were refugees fleeing famine, but their clothes didn't seem to match.
The entire caravan was pulled by animals, including oxen, horses, mules, and donkeys.
On their faces, instead of the hardships and suffering, there was a longing for a new life.
The Zhao family paid for all the food, drink, and other necessities along the way.
Where else can you find such a good thing?
Of course, once in office, everyone performs their duties, and how much they earn depends on their own abilities.
Meanwhile, the one sitting in the palace, upon receiving reports from spies across the land, felt that his arrangements for the three Zhao brothers were correct.
"I knew it; the Zhao family members are quick-witted and capable."
The main character hasn't even set off yet, but the helpers have already started moving.
What about the remaining four sons of the Zhao family?
The emperor sat in front of the map, pondering the issue of resettlement, muttering to himself.
The chief eunuch Rong Fuhai, standing to the side, really wanted to offer a reminder.
"If you continue to arrange things like this, your nephew's wife might be gone."
But I could only think these words in my heart; I dared not say them aloud.
But his silence doesn't mean the emperor forbids him from speaking.
"Fu Hai, where do you think would be a suitable place for me to send those young men from the Zhao family?"
Rong Fuhai dared not offer any suggestions.
"Your Majesty is wise. Wherever Your Majesty arranges for them, that will be the most suitable place for them."
I just don't know if they have the same abilities as their parents.
Rong Fuhai's words seemed to answer, yet also seemed not to answer, but the Emperor did take his last sentence to heart.
I had originally planned to assign the four brothers to guard the border cities in the southeast, south, and southwest, but after thinking about it, I decided against it.
After all, they're young and still need experience. It's best to settle them in the north, even if they can't be too close to their parents.
However, the people's livelihood in these places is relatively better than that in the border areas.
"I hope this won't disappoint me."
The emperor spoke in such a grand and dignified manner that Rong Fuhai couldn't help but feel that the emperor had ulterior motives.
Forget it, which emperor was truly benevolent?
What is the purpose of the Enke program? Isn't it just to solve the problem of those troublesome places lacking local officials?
If the Zhao family was treated this way, the other newly appointed scholars weren't in much better shape.
On the day Xu Dongsheng reported to the Hanlin Academy, the head of the Hanlin Academy felt that the young man looked familiar.
How could he not look familiar? Xu Dongsheng's features are strikingly similar to his mother's.
Anyone who met his birth mother back then would have some impression of her.
The princess was exceptionally talented, and many talented men lamented her passing.
On my first day at the Hanlin Academy, besides completing some formalities, I received some writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones.
The person was then placed in a large study.
They were tasked with compiling and reporting these matters over the years. As for the second and third place winners, their work was largely the same as Xu Dongsheng's.
The morning passed quickly.
When it was lunchtime, Xu Dongsheng was dumbfounded.
The Hanlin Academy didn't even provide meals. The second and third place scholars, both from official families, naturally knew what the Hanlin Academy was really like.
They all brought their own food.
Just as Xu Dongsheng was feeling hungry, Han Xuri arrived.
However, he did not bring the food box with him, but instead took Xu Dongsheng directly to the Hall of Diligent Governance.
According to the rules, Xu Dongsheng first kowtowed to the emperor, and then the emperor helped him up.
Seeing the tears in the Emperor's eyes, Xu Dongsheng was deeply moved.
However, he was not completely moved by the emperor's tears.
Perhaps it's because he's spent so much time with Zhao Qingyan, but Xu Dongsheng has developed a strong rebellious streak.
Faced with this blood-related uncle, Xu Dongsheng was unable to treat him as a family member like Han Xuri had.
The distinction between ruler and subject is clear; serving a ruler is like serving a tiger—this saying is etched into his very bones.
What is the original intention of an official? It is to provide a safe haven for his wife, to prevent her from being looked down upon, and to ensure that she does not have to kneel before anyone because of her status.
Therefore, while it is necessary to show filial piety, one must not abandon one's bottom line.
