Chapter 278 Be Careful About Marriage Matters B Scroll

After confirming that she must be admitted to the Shu Ji Shi, Feng Ziying had nothing to worry about, as Qiao Yingjia said, the results of the palace examination depended on the emperor's will.

Gu Bingqian is not an easy person, since he has some thoughts, he will definitely see things through to the end.

In the final analysis, the emperor personally selects scholars in this palace examination. The officials who read the papers, that is, the cabinet ministers and the officials in the hall, are all recommendations. The key is the hand-picked selection by Zhubi. Above, the emperor can adjust as he likes.

When meeting a diligent emperor, he was dissatisfied with the papers recommended by the examiner. From 36 volumes to 72 volumes, or even [-] volumes, it is possible to determine the second and third best from so many, which is the emperor's right.

Generally speaking, the second-tier ones account for one-third of the entire Jinshi group, while the third-tier ones account for two-thirds. This is also a customary practice.

"Ziying, you don't have to worry too much. If Gu Bingqian can become the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, he naturally has his abilities. The emperor still favors him, otherwise he would not be let him be the deputy chief examiner." Qiao Yingjia said casually: "As for Let’s see how it goes in the imperial examination, then I will have to talk to Gu Bingqian, a good beginning and a good end is what a gentleman does.”

After hearing Qiao Yingjia's words "be good at the beginning and end well", Feng Ziying immediately realized that Qiao Yingjia should have given Gu Bingqian a message or hinted or encouraged him before. Maybe he could understand the emperor's thoughts, and Qiao Yingjia, a big boss of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, secretly supported him behind his back.

"Disciple, thank Master Qiao for your concern." These words came from Feng Ziying's heart.

If this is the case, without Qiao Yingjia's hints or support for Gu Bingqian, I am afraid that Gu Bingqian may not be able to show his strength once. As far as Feng Ziying knows, Gu Bingqian's character is not very good, and he also wonders that the other party will suddenly be so high-profile and tough. some stories.

Qiao Yingjia nodded.

He still deserves this thank you. It is a bit unusual for the right deputy Du Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to hint at the left servant of the Ministry of Rites. If someone catches him, it will cause another disturbance.

But he thought it was worth it.

He is very optimistic about Feng Ziying. He is down-to-earth but not rigid. In addition, his vision, sense of smell and judgment are all first-class. He is already a Jinshi at such a young age. As long as there are no major problems, the chances of joining the cabinet in the future are extremely high.

Cultivating a disciple who can join the cabinet or even serve as the first assistant is enough to make him boast to the villagers after he becomes an official.

"By the way, how is your marriage going?" Qiao Yingjia seemed to think of something suddenly, and looked back at Feng Ziying, "Lin Ruhai's daughter seems to be living in Rong Guogong Jia's house? What do you think about it?"

At this time, Feng Ziying realized that she had lied at the beginning, but now it has become a reality, so what should I do about the "marriage agreement" with Lin Daiyu?
"I haven't thought about it yet." Feng Ziying said in a deep voice, "I have never thought that I can pass the Jinshi exam so smoothly, but I plan to take a month's leave to Yangzhou if I can become a good scholar to observe politics. In this way, we can discuss this matter with Mr. Lin.”

Qiao Yingjia agreed in her heart, but she felt a little regretful, so she nodded slightly.

He originally wanted to fight for Feng Ziying and Shen Xing's family's daughter. Shen Xing told himself in a letter a few years ago that his daughter hadn't married yet. If there is no suitable one, I have to consider going back to my hometown in Suzhou, Nanzhili, to find a suitable one.

In fact, Qiao Yingjia already felt that Lin Ruhai's daughter was not suitable for Feng Ziying.

One is Lin Ruhai's identity.

Although Lin Ruhai is a censor who was born in Tanhua, for so many years, Lin Ruhai has almost always appeared in the image of the emperor's favorite private minister. Once the emperor dies, people like Lin Ruhai will definitely be wiped out. Not bad.

Second, if Lin Ruhai loses his wife, the Lin family will also lose points.

As for the issue of the girl from the Lin family, Qiao Yingjia didn't know about it, and he wouldn't pay attention to these things that women should care about.

Besides, Feng Ziying just made an appointment with Lin Ruhai to marry, with pre-conditions set, so in Qiao Yingjia's view, this is not considered an engagement, and it is reasonable to marry another now, but Feng Ziying has no such intention, so this makes Qiao Yingjia admire Feng Ziying She kept her promise, and felt a little regretful that Shen Xing's daughter lost such a good marriage.

He could even guess that although Shen Xing's letter did not refer to anyone specifically, it actually referred to Feng Ziying.

Gein, almost none of the Jinshi in the scientific examination is unmarried. Except for Feng Ziying, the youngest is already 16 years old, and men who are 16 years old in this era, especially those who have passed the Juren examination Now, even if they are not married, they have already been engaged.

Shen Xing himself was born as a Jinshi, and now he is also a member of the fourth rank. He has great hope of making progress in the future. It is impossible to choose a student who is born in Juren for the eldest daughter, right?

Qiao Yingjia knew about Shen Xing's daughter, she is both talented and beautiful, and she is also a famous talented woman in Suzhou. She has excellent accomplishments in poetry, calligraphy, chess and painting, and has a very good personality. My wife has seen it before and is full of praise. It's a pity that my son was married long ago, otherwise he would have married this girl.

But now that Feng Ziying has said this, Qiao Yingjia regrets it, but still agrees with Feng Ziying's attitude, rich and powerful cannot be lewd, mighty cannot be subdued, this is called a real man.

"Then when is your family going to discuss marriage with the Lin family?" Qiao Yingjia asked casually, since Feng Ziying had this plan, he didn't say any more.

Feng Ziying only now realizes that this problem is a bit troublesome.

Lin Yatou has such a strong body, even if she has Master Zhang's training method for her, it will not be able to achieve much effect in a year or a half. If my mother asks for a little bit, she will have to flatly refuse, and she will never agree.

It would be fine if we got engaged when we were young when we didn't know each other, but the problem is that I was talking nonsense in a hurry, but now I can't say in front of Qiao Yingjia that I lied to Qiao Yingjia.

The parents on both sides don't know about this at all, and even Lin Daiyu doesn't know about it. From the beginning to the end, she wrote and acted by herself, and Qiao Yingjia is the only audience. What should I do now?
Confess to Qiao Yingjia that he lied at the time?Feng Ziying did not dare to take the risk.

Don't look at Qiao Yingjia's appreciation of himself so much now, but it is based on all kinds of good impressions before. If he now knows that he has been deceiving him from the beginning, I am afraid that this impression will be greatly reduced, and even if he wants to make up for it, it may not be possible. Can go back to the original.

In recent years, these scholar-officials have attached great importance to the word integrity, almost as the fundamental existence of a literati.

"Master Qiao, I don't dare to hide it. My mother may still be a little worried about this marriage..."

Feng Ziying thought for a while before saying.

"Oh? What are you worried about?" Qiao Yingjia was very surprised. Since this has already been agreed and there is no special reason, according to common sense, it is time to discuss marriage.

"The main reason is that the girl of the Lin family is weak, and you know about my family's situation, so my mother is worried that the descendants of the Feng family will be incensed in the future..."

Qiao Yingjia frowned, this is indeed the most realistic question.

The only son with a family of three like the Feng family is very important to the continuation of the incense, and the first wife has no children. Even if there is a concubine to have children, it will bring a lot of trouble and cause instability to the whole family, so there are also first-line wives. There is no example of even being dismissed.

But this kind of situation is rare. After all, it is a common phenomenon for scholar-bureaucrats to take concubines. If a wife does not give up, it is rare to marry multiple concubines. If there is such a situation, you should know that it is your own fault, not the woman. The reason is gone, but there are still such situations where the family needs to be maintained and the wife is divorced because the first wife does not come out.

"Does Lin Ruhai have a concubine to give birth to a daughter?" Qiao Yingjia asked after thinking for a while. This is the easiest way. When a prostitute gets married, bring a concubine to give birth to a daughter. This is double insurance and can ensure a stable marriage.

"No, although Mr. Lin has concubines, none of them came out, and Mr. Lin is also a single heir for three generations, so he has no close relatives." Feng Ziying also knew what Qiao Yingjia meant.

This is a bit tricky. For the Feng family, I'm afraid this is really not a good marriage.

"Then what do you think?" Qiao Yingjia also felt embarrassed.

Although I appreciate Feng Ziying's commitment to keeping promises, we also need to consider the actual situation of the Feng family.

After all, this is related to the heirs of a family, and even the survival of the family.

There is no direct wife, and there is no distinction between concubine and concubine. After adulthood, it is very easy to cause various troubles, especially when it comes to family power. This has precedents in every dynasty.

And if Feng Ziying has something to do in his official career in the future, he must handle these matters well to avoid a fire in the backyard.

"The disciple thinks that the girl from the Lin family is still young, so I'm afraid it's too early to say this. Well, I plan to talk to my mother again. I still plan to stick to this marriage."

Feng Ziying's attitude was still very clear, which made Qiao Yingjia both gratified and a little worried, "Ziying, you have to talk about it at home, this kind of thing is no small matter, you really need to be cautious, once you make a decision, it is almost impossible to change it, the Great Zhou ruled the world with filial piety, Don't give people a handle, it will become a joke."

"Disciple understands." Feng Ziying breathed a sigh of relief. His mother still needs to work hard, but he is still confident, but the time may have to be delayed.

Coming out of Qiao Yingjia's mansion, Feng Ziying was almost sweating, so this person really can't lie easily, especially on important matters, one lie needs countless lies to make up, and it is very easy to cause irreparable damage. as a result of.

Feng Ziying suddenly thought of a question, when did the book "A Dream of Red Mansions" say that Lin Ruhai died?He can't remember clearly, next year or the year after?But not this year?Will it happen again?
