"What kind of position do you think Wanwan should be given then?"
Emperor Wu of Xia's words stunned Lin Jinshu, who was kneeling on the ground.
This... this means that not only will she be given a position, but she will also be given the opportunity to choose?
God, how lucky he must be to have met the little princess!
God had never been fair to him for so many years. Until he met the little princess!
"Well, Lin Jinyue is currently a third-rank official. So let's make him a third-rank official and send him to the Ministry of Justice."
Wanwan said, "With Brother Jinshu's ability, he should first become the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice. There's a vacancy there. As long as he surpasses his brother, it will be fine."
Why did you choose the Ministry of Justice? Because the book shows that Brother Jinshu later uncovered many unjust, false, and wrongful convictions. When this guy gets ruthless, he can be ruthless.
After hearing Wanwan's thoughts, he felt more assured and bolder, and directly drafted an edict, "Take it. In three days, you will directly take up your post in the Ministry of Justice. By the way, I will grant you a separate house, so you can choose not to live with the people in the Hengguo Mansion."
Emperor Wu of Xia had also learned a little about the goings-on at the Duke of Heng's Mansion these days. Lin Jinshu had probably suffered a lot, and he hated the people in the Duke's Mansion.
The Duke of Heng's Mansion was already in decline. Lin Jinyue, the Duke of Heng's Mansion, held a position in the Ministry of Rites, but Emperor Wu of Xia was also somewhat tempted to remove this position.
This person is two-faced, he writes very well, but his work style is incompatible with his writing.
The imperial court is really short of people.
If Lin Jinshu performed well, he would surely hold an important position in the imperial court. The Lin family genealogy would probably even have a separate page dedicated to him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, little princess."
Holding the imperial edict, Lin Jinshu was so excited that he shed tears. How long had he been waiting for this day!
Probably, the Duke of Heng’s Mansion would be in an uproar over this.
However, the extent to which Emperor Wu of Xia doted on his daughter was unprecedented!
From that day on, officials in the imperial court urged their children to do everything they could to get some relationship with the little princess.
It feels like as long as I have a little bit of connection, I can rise to the top.
But these people tried every possible trick, but Wanwan didn't give them any face at all!
Of course, Emperor Xia Wu wanted to exploit Wan Wan all the time. After Lin Jinshu left happily, Emperor Xia Wu held Wan Wan in his arms and said, "My dear, you've played with me for two days. Can you please feel sorry for your daddy?"
Wanwan sighed, picked up a memorial, and read it with her father.
[Alas, it would be better if you don't come into this imperial study anymore.]
Emperor Wu of Xia raised the corners of his mouth slightly. He had become accustomed to entering the imperial study.
Although he said this, when he was bored, he would come to the imperial study for no reason.
This little guy's thoughts and actions are very different.
After reading the memorial, he carried Wanwan to the Empress for dinner. Emperor Wu of Xia had never dared to imagine such a feeling before.
This warmth from the imperial family was given to her by Wanwan.
Sometimes, we would go to the Empress Dowager's Palace to have dinner together. The feeling of three generations of our family living together as a family of four was like a dream.
But today, the seventh princess Fuxue is also in the queen's palace.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have something to ask of you."
At the dinner table, Fu Xue blushed and said, "I think the Emperor and the Empress have decreed an engagement."
Emperor Wu of Xia had long understood Fuxue's thoughts and couldn't help but teasing her, "Fuxue, you're not even an adult yet. Are you afraid she'll run away?"
Wanwan looked at Emperor Wu of Xia with disdain and silently complained about his father in her heart.
[What a father! You use your own daughter to tease me every day. You seem to be very happy to see my sister being shy.]
"I……"
Fuxue's face turned red like a cooked crab, "Father...I'm just scared."
"Hahaha……"
Emperor Wu of Xia raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then how will you repay me if I arrange a marriage for you?"
"Sew a dragon robe and a phoenix robe for Daddy and the Queen."
Princess Fuxue walked over and gave Emperor Wu of Xia a back pat to please him.
"Well, wait until you finish sewing it. Then I will issue an order to engage you." Emperor Wu of Xia teased him deliberately.
"Father..."
Princess Fuxue was so angry that she cried.
[My dad is such a dog, why is he so itchy and wants to do something?]
"Daddy, don't call me when you go to court in the future. Also, you will have to work hard to deal with those memorials in the imperial study. I have to go help Sister Fuxue sew the dragon robe." Wanwan looked at her father and said arrogantly.
Emperor Xia Wu's expression changed. He turned around calmly and pulled Princess Fuxue to sit beside him. "Come here, draft an edict and grant the marriage!"
Princess Fuxue glanced at Wanwan and gave her a thumbs-up. Once Wanwan made a move, her father really gave in easily.
"I don't want the dragon robe anymore. I can sew it slowly. As for the queen's phoenix robe, it should also wait. After all, the ones sewn by these concubines are still pretty good."
Emperor Wu of Xia looked at Wanwan and said, "The dragon robe you sewed is not good. You should come to the imperial study."
"Depending on my mood, you'd better pick out all the fish bones from me. If I'm happy, I might not care."
Wanwan looked like she was getting more and more demanding, and Emperor Wu of Xia, who had been so arrogant just now, had to pick out the fish bones for Wanwan.
Fuxue and the Empress watched from the side, nearly suffocating themselves to the point of inflicting internal injuries. This evening, Emperor Wu of Xia was truly under her thumb.
*
After that day, the news that Zhang Liang would become Princess Fuxue's consort spread throughout the harem in an instant.
Princess Fu Yue was preparing her dowry, thinking that she would soon be marrying the Shangshu's legitimate son. She also thought that Princess Fu Xue was so close to Wan Wan, but in the end she only married the Minister's illegitimate son, how lowly it was.
There are rumors in the court that if you are close to the little princess, you can rise to a high position. This... seems to be untrue.
"My daughter, you'll be going to the Shangshu's house. I heard that the eldest son of the Minister of Rites is a rare genius. He's only sixteen years old, but he's already won the top spot in the imperial examination and is making his mark in the court. He's also a gifted man with both talent and good looks. If you marry him, he'll surely rise to prominence."
Fu Yue's mother finished her heartfelt words and continued to complain about Fu Xue, "This little bitch, I don't know if she has a problem with her brain. She only has this bastard son, and she still wants your father to order an engagement. Really, are you afraid that you won't be able to get married? How despicable!"
The mother and daughter looked at each other with contempt, but still fantasized about the good days in the future.
No one expected that this wedding would give the mother and daughter a huge surprise!
Soon, the wedding date arrived.
Fu Yue paid her respects to the Queen Mother, Emperor Wu of Xia, and the Empress, and then went to the Shangshu Mansion according to etiquette. The Shangshu Mansion was originally a place where there was a lively reception for the bride.
However, the groom disappeared that day.
As the auspicious time was approaching, the family of the Minister of Rites was in a state of panic.
