Chapter 440 Qingyao! Qingsheng's official position has been taken down!
The long-awaited palace examination finally began.
It was presided over by the emperor himself and held in the palace, and the emperor took the test on the spot.
Emphasis on literary talent, logic and the integration of Confucian classics must conform to the norm of "speaking on behalf of the sages."
Qin Qingyao was among the top three in the first class and was appointed as the second place by the emperor.
Qin Qingsheng was a Shujishi and went to the Hanlin Academy to study. After three years, those who performed well in the assessment could remain in the Hanlin Academy and be directly granted a position in the Hanlin Academy.
Gu Jinghuai is now in the Hanlin Academy, and his official position is not low. Qin Qingsheng is studying in the Hanlin Academy. As long as he doesn't make any mistakes, everything will go smoothly.
The Hanlin Academy is an institution that reserves senior officials for the imperial court, who may be promoted to important positions such as the cabinet and the six ministries in the future.
Being able to work in the Hanlin Academy, your future is limitless.
As for Qin Qingyao, the emperor sent him to serve as an official in a remote area.
Because Qin Zhizhi has been experimenting with growing high-yield crops over the years, Qingquan County and Qinjia Village have always been the leaders in planting them.
In addition, Qin Qingyao was rewarded for saving Gu Yunfei and her son, so the emperor appointed Qin Qingyao as the magistrate of Qingquan County, a seventh-rank official.
Most people were sent to serve as local officials, and they went to desolate places. It was rare for the new runner-up to go to such a convenient place as Qingquan County.
Qingquan County has developed very well in recent years, with convenient transportation and wealthy people.
The officials in the court were puzzled, but the emperor had his own intentions.
Qingquan County is the root of the Qin family. By letting Qin Qingyao be the county magistrate, he believes that Qin Zhizhi can still grow new things.
After all, Qingquan County is already rich enough. If you want to achieve political achievements within three years, you must make greater contributions.
The Qin family is united, and Qin Zhizhi is an outstanding person whether in farming or doing business. The emperor believes that there will be a surprise if she can guide Qin Qingyao a little.
Qin Qingyao is particularly satisfied with his official position. His fiancée is in Qingquan County, and now he has to go back to take up his post. He is really happy to be closer to his fiancée.
After the palace examination, he couldn't wait to share the good news with his family.
But my second grandfather's family was in trouble because everyone had their own things to do and had settled down in the capital.
Is it possible that the whole family has to move back to Qingquan County again?
Second Grandpa couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he had to go to his eldest brother and third brother to discuss it.
After Qin Zhizhi learned about this, she asked her great grandfather, second grandfather and grandfather to accompany Qin Qingyao back.
"Zhizhi, you mean that the three of us should go back with Qingyao. What about you?"
Although the second grandfather also wanted to accompany his grandson back, the matters on the farm could not be delayed.
"Second Grandfather, you have helped me enough. Now that Brother Qingyao needs you, you must not be partial."
"Zhizhi, do you have any plans? Tell us quickly."
When the great grandfather heard Qin Zhizhi say this, he knew that Qin Zhizhi had a plan.
Qin Zhizhi nodded when she heard this, then explained with a smile, "Brother Qingyao, it's not as simple as going back to be a county magistrate. After three years, your performance will be evaluated. Only those with good performance can be promoted or return to Beijing."
"Zhizhi, do you mean that the three of us should go and help Qingyao achieve good political achievements?" asked the great grandfather in surprise.
"Yes, that's what I mean!"
"But, Zhizhi, we don't know how to do anything except farming!"
Old man Qin felt that he and his elder and second brothers knew nothing except farming, so how could they help Qingyao improve his political achievements?
"Just knowing how to farm is enough. I plan to ask my great-grandfather for some more high-yield seeds. You can plant them and spread them throughout Qingquan County. That way, my political achievements will be complete."
The three of them were stunned when they heard this, and then they praised.
"Great! Zhizhi is really smart! This is great!"
"Zhizhi, Second Grandpa thanks you on behalf of Qingyao!"
"Zhizhi, does your great-grandfather really have other high-yield seeds?"
Great grandfather, second grandfather, and Old Man Qin were very excited, but they were afraid that they would not be able to get high-yield seeds.
"Don't worry, my great-grandfather has already given me the seeds. We can plant them when the season comes."
Qin Zhizhi now used the name of her great-grandfather to lie to the three of them without blushing or feeling any guilt, and spoke without hesitation.
"That's great, Zhizhi. The three of us will all go and listen to you. The farm in the capital will be handed over to your father and your uncle. Don't worry about their crops being well-cultivated. If they spoil the crops you plant, we will take care of them."
The three of them couldn't wait to set off back to Qinjia Village.
"Okay, if they slack off then, I'll write to you to complain. Anyway, Qinjia Village is not far from the capital. You can come back in the carriage in the morning and deal with them in the evening."
Qin Zhizhi's humorous words made everyone laugh.
"Yes, that's right!"
"Then Zhizhi, when is the right time for us to set off?"
"Grandpa, don't worry. Once Qingyao's appointment documents come down, you can set off."
"Okay, we'll all listen to Zhizhi."
The three of them were very happy and felt that they could continue to broaden their horizons by following their granddaughter.
"Grandpa, I don't want to make this too public. Can you keep it a secret for me? Otherwise, there's no way to explain the origin of this seed."
Qin Zhizhi said somewhat embarrassedly that it was too difficult to fulfill the wish and she didn't want to go.
"What source? We found those seeds in the back hills of Qinjia Village. They have nothing to do with you."
The old man directly cleared Qin Zhizhi of the seed issue. Qin Zhizhi gave him a thumbs up and the problem was solved.
"By the way, the three of you shouldn't go back with Qingyao. Let him go back first." Qin Zhizhi said mysteriously.
"Zhizhi, what's the point of this?"
"Think about it, if Qingyao goes back by himself, Master Chen's family will definitely take good care of him since he's the only one there. This will help Qingyao and Miss Chen develop a good relationship."
After thinking about it, they realized that this was indeed the case and said with a smile, "Okay, we'll go later."
"Don't worry, Zhizhi. Even if we go back, we'll live in the village. We only love farming and don't want to live in the county government office with that brat."
"Second brother is right. We feel uncomfortable if we don't work for a day. We must live in Qinjia Village."
The three of them were chatting one after another, already imagining their future days. Qin Zhizhi wanted to laugh as she listened.
"Grandpa, Qingsheng has my husband to look after him, so you can rest assured!"
Qin Zhizhi specifically mentioned Qin Qingsheng because she wanted to tell her grandfather that they were both important to her and she would not favor one over the other.
"Grandpa understands you, kid. We are relieved that Jinghuai is here."
The great-grandfather was extremely happy that his grandson could be in the Hanlin Academy.
My grandson now has a good future and a fiancée with a good family background. As long as he works hard and has the Qin family as his backing, he will not be afraid of not having a chance to succeed.
"In addition to growing high-yield crops, I also want to do some business and connect the entire Qingquan County with the capital."
"Zhizhi, we'll all listen to you. Just tell us what you need us to do."
The three of them felt like they had been injected with chicken blood. They felt a lot younger and full of energy.
"There are many things that need your help. Take a good rest now. We will be busy when we get to Qinjia Village."
"Hahaha, okay, then let's listen to Zhizhi and have a good rest!"
The great grandfather smiled happily. When he returned to Qinjia Village, he might even see his grandson's wife. The thought made him happy.
