Zheng Wanjun knew that Ji Keji, who always ranked last in exams, was not so conspicuous because of the comparison with the amazing Zhao Qingyun.
Zheng Wanjun also knew that Ji Keji's own abilities were average, at least he could not compare to Zhao Qingyun, who had the aura of the male protagonist.
There are still a few years before the seventh prince ascends the throne. Instead of staying in the capital, it would be better for him to be transferred to the countryside like Zhao Qingyun.
Zheng Wanjun has never been in politics, but she is familiar with the plot.
She knew that the male protagonist had made brilliant political achievements when he was a local official.
Zheng Wanjun felt that as long as it was a one-to-one replica, even without the blessing of the male protagonist's halo, some results could still be achieved.
The seventh prince, King Kang, is a pragmatic man. He will promote any talented minister.
Ji Keji should be able to gain the respect of King Kang by virtue of his achievements in local governance.
Ji Keji was not so optimistic.
His idea was simple. In the capital, he had the support of the Zheng family and the help of his wife. Although he was only a small official in the Ministry of Revenue, he was still among the six ministries.
You will also have the opportunity to deal with those noble people.
If he is demoted to the local area, who will remember him after a long time?
Zheng family?
The Zheng family also has descendants with the surname Zheng. It is impossible to always use resources on him!
wife?
If it was because of his wife, their family should have stayed in the capital.
You know, my wife's business with Princess Pyeongchang and Princess Kang is booming.
And these workshops and shops are also in the capital.
If they go to other places, what will happen to these businesses?
If something really happens, we are too far away to handle it. Losing business is a small matter. The key is that we will offend important people.
There is another very important point. Ji Keji knew that his status as a juren and jinshi were both blessed with great "good luck".
His own foundation is very weak.
He wanted to stay in the capital, read more books, accumulate more knowledge, and settle down.
My wife’s business can indeed help me make friends with important people, but it is just a “small path” after all.
If Ji Keji wants to gain a firm foothold in the officialdom and go far in the long run, he needs to improve his own abilities - read more! Learn more!
These are the right ways.
The capital city is the capital of the country and the best place for the emperor. There are collections of books in places like Hongwenguan and Guozijian.
There are also many famous people and great scholars, even the grandfather and uncle of the Zheng family are all knowledgeable elders.
Staying in the capital, Ji Keji could study when he wanted to, and watch the amazing performance of the old foxes in the officialdom when he wanted to.
But if you leave, all these conveniences will be gone.
Ji Keji said to Zheng Wanjun seriously: "Jun'er, it's easy to leave the capital, but it's not easy to come back!"
Of so many officials who have been demoted, how many can come back?
Zheng Wanjun: ...
What Ji Keji said makes sense.
He wants to consolidate his foundation and build his network through his own efforts, and there is nothing wrong with that.
But, but, Zheng Wanjun always felt that she should follow in the footsteps of the male protagonist and replicate his success.
In this way, the chances of success will be greater.
However, on second thought, the male protagonist has left the capital, and King Kang is left alone.
This would allow her husband to take advantage of the situation, oh no, to show more, and perhaps he could replace Zhao Qingyun and become King Kang's most capable confidant.
"...Okay! Then let's stay in the capital."
…
The place chosen by King Kang for Zhao Qingyun was a county town about a thousand miles away from the capital.
It is bitter, cold and barren, with basically no oil or water.
But if you work hard, it is easiest to achieve political achievements.
After traveling for more than twenty days, the family finally arrived at the dilapidated small county town, exhausted.
The county town was destroyed, and the county government office was even more destroyed.
Well, there is a custom in official circles that “officials do not maintain their offices”.
As long as the roof isn't broken and the walls aren't collapsed, it's fine.
The back hall was reserved for the magistrate's family to live in.
Grass has grown on the top of the wall;
Paint began to peel from pillars, windows, door panels and furniture.
"Mother, Jiaojiao, it's really uninhabitable here."
"Let's wait in the inn for a day. I'll find someone to clean up the back office."
Zhao Qingyun walked around the back hall and said to his mother and wife with a frown.
He knew that his mother and wife were both meticulous and particular people.
People are very concerned about food, clothing, housing and other necessities.
Besides, Zhao Qingyun didn't want to let his mother and wife down.
The officials did not repair the office, but that did not stop the magistrate from "cleaning" the back office.
"Okay! All up to you!"
Gu Qingcheng and Han Jiaojiao agreed softly.
Zhao Qingyun was used to being in charge of the overall situation and didn't think there was anything wrong with his mother and wife not being able to manage the household affairs.
He ordered people to book the best inn in the county and personally sent his mother and wife there.
After Zhao Qingyun and his family entered the county town, they were secretly watched by countless eyes.
As for Han Jiaojiao, she simply displayed her ceremonial regalia as that of a royal princess.
After arriving at the inn, they made a big fuss and a lot of noise.
The people who were watching secretly couldn't help but gasp:
"As expected of the princess, look at her demeanor, she's truly extraordinary!"
"That's right. He actually booked the entire inn because he disliked the shabby backyard."
"What's the big deal about renting an inn? People even have to bring their own bedding and toilet."
"I heard the stove is always on fire day and night, and there's always hot water and soup."
"...The County Master's wife is truly a 'noble' person."
"Not only that! The old lady of the county lord's family is also a very particular person."
