Chapter 232: Marriage Matchmaking Department: Who is the most popular department in Dazhao? (Aknuckles)

After hearing Xie Hui's words, the emperor asked him jokingly, "Then why did you leave the Dali Temple? The little girl from the Shen family could have been admitted to another place."

"Because I don't have to go to Dali Temple. Manman really likes Dali Temple."

This is what Xie Hui thought in his heart. He chose Dali Temple because it would not be involved in the fight for the crown prince's position and could get practical work done there. Although he later gradually came to like going to Dali Temple, it would not be a problem for him to go somewhere else now. Manman's abilities could play a greater role in Dali Temple, and even if he did not have that ability, Manman himself was very smart and sensitive to cases.

"Okay, then tell me where you want to go. When you came back from the northwest, I asked you to join the Imperial Guards, but you didn't want to go. What about now?"

Emperor Zhaoming thought that his nephew had learned martial arts since he was young. When he grew up, he took the initiative to go to the border to gain experience. After returning, he would naturally become a military general. However, he did not expect that he would go to the Dali Temple. But now that he thinks about it, it was not in vain to go to the Dali Temple, and he even got a wife. Emperor Zhaoming thought about it and found this matter quite interesting.

From Xie Hui's perspective, the emperor smiled without warning, and there was a hint of smile... Xie Hui forced himself to stop the "treasonous" thoughts in his mind, and answered the emperor's question honestly: "It's all up to the emperor to decide."

Emperor Zhaoming nodded, as if he understood. "Okay, that means you don't want to go to the Imperial Guards." The emperor paced in the palace, thinking about what vacancies there are in the capital recently. After thinking for a while, he really thought of a suitable one. "I remember that you have a good relationship with the kid from the Zhou family. You have been playing together since you were young. It just so happened that I remembered that the Left Shaoyin of Jingzhao submitted a letter of retirement last month. I didn't approve it, but he is indeed at the age of retirement. Jingzhao Prefecture is busy, and Wuboguan is over 60 this year and can't do it anymore. When he retires, you can just take over this vacancy. You have worked in the Dali Temple, so it is also suitable for Jingzhao Prefecture."

"yes."

After finishing the business, the emperor fell into his old habit again. He just thought of Zhou Zhongan and asked Xie Hui: "The boy from the Zhou family is not young anymore, right? Hasn't he arranged a marriage yet?"

"Uncle, are you trying to arrange a marriage again?"

Emperor Zhaoming chuckled. He did have this idea in mind. He said complacently, "Look at the marriages I arranged for the eldest, second and third sons. They are so good and suitable. I heard that they are very loving and I believe they will give me some grandchildren soon. You can arrange your own marriage, so you don't need your uncle to arrange the marriage. It has been so long since the engagement, and the wedding date has not been discussed. I don't know when you can find a wife."

The emperor still felt a little disappointed as he spoke. He did not give marriages randomly. The three previous couples were a match made in heaven. Why did no one understand him?

"Uncle, if you really want to be a matchmaker, why not go to the matchmaking agency in disguise and try."

After all, one of the important duties of the Matchmaking Bureau is to act as a matchmaker. If there is an unmarried boy or girl in a family, and the family is anxious but cannot find a suitable person for the time being, they can register with the Matchmaking Bureau. Later, if the government sees a suitable person, they will contact both parties to meet each other.

"That's not impossible. I'll discuss it with the Director of the Matchmaking Department later."

Thank you: ...

"Uncle, I have to go back to work."

"Well, fine, then you can go back." The emperor was immersed in the imagination of pretending to be a matchmaker and had no intention of talking to his nephew.

After Xie Hui returned to the Dali Temple, he went to find Shen Yun and told him about this matter. After listening to him, Shen Yun remained silent for a long time.

Finally, he said to Xie Hui: "You are a good candidate for handling cases. From the perspective of the Dali Temple, I don't want to lose such a subordinate. From the perspective of Man Man's father, I don't want to see you guys compromise for each other. To be honest, if we have to avoid suspicion, I, as a father, should avoid suspicion."

Shen Yun is an experienced person. He thinks that it is not good for either party in a relationship to sacrifice for the other. Even if the party who makes the sacrifice does not feel resentful, the other party will inevitably feel guilty. Whether it is resentment or guilt, it is not good for the relationship between the two.

"Uncle, listen to me. I left the Dali Temple. Avoiding suspicion was only one of the reasons. In fact, even if we were all in the Dali Temple, there wouldn't be many people gossiping. It was just that I went to the Dali Temple after weighing the pros and cons. The emperor also said that there was a vacancy in Jingzhao Prefecture and he could let me go there. I thought Jingzhao Prefecture could do more, and it was actually not bad."

Xie Hui had heard from Zhou Zhongan that the other Shao Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture was old and too tired to do many tasks, so many things had to be done by him. When he was busy, the Jingzhao Yin had to go out to arrest people himself, so when he encountered a case, he often threw it to the Dali Temple without even looking at it, and he was really too busy to handle it.

"In that case, I won't say much. You have to go and talk to Manman. You need to think carefully about what to say. If Manman thinks that you left the Dali Temple because of her, she will feel guilty."

"Yes, then uncle... I will go to see Manman at the free clinic after I finish my shift tomorrow, and then have dinner with Manman outside. Do you think this is okay?"

It was he who asked Xie Hui to talk to his daughter properly, so how could he say no now? The old father could only nod and agree, and told her to go home early, which was one of the few things he could do now.

——Jingzhao Prefecture

Xie Hui came back later after leaving his post. He asked the people in Jingzhao Prefecture and found out that Zhou Zhongan had not gone out, so he sent someone to inform them that Xie Hui was looking for him. When Zhou Zhongan heard that Xie Hui was looking for him, he stood up and ran out.

Before the person even came up to him, he asked anxiously, "What happened?"

"Nothing. When you get off duty, if you are free in the evening, let's have dinner together."

Zhou Zhongan was even more puzzled now. Why did Xie Hui want to have dinner with him if there was nothing wrong? "Did you have a fight with your Yuanyuan?"

Xie Hui said expressionlessly: "We won't quarrel. And why do you call me Yuanyuan? I have something to tell you. If you are free, let's go to Shen's Tavern together later."

After hearing what he said, Zhou Zhongan simply didn't go in, and directly pulled Xie Hui and left, "You are lucky, kid, I will be off duty on time today, let's go, I want to see what you want to tell me."

For some reason, Shen Yuan sneezed several times today. Qingdai thought that she must have caught a cold because she didn't wear enough clothes outside yesterday afternoon, so she asked Fuling to make ginger soup for her.

"Okay Qingdai, I've finished drinking. Is that all right now? I'll go see how the carriage has been modified."

"Hey, girl, wait a minute, put on your cloak before going..."
