It is already summer now, Mrs. Zhao is still clutching her thin padded jacket, and after walking a few steps, she begins to pant and cough intermittently.The summer was long, and Lin Yu took his sister Lin Daiyu to Xiuye ​​Garden after asking for instructions. Lin Daiyu's talent is undeniable, and Mrs. Zhao also read a few books with the girl from the Zhen family. Coupled with the fact that they all look like sick people and talk, it is even more speculative.

Lin Yu's stature was much taller than last year's. In addition, the Chief of the Palace, Shi, was not outside the city, so he was not restrained, and wandered around in front of Situ Yue all day long.

Situ Yue hugged Qiao Qiao and lay on the rattan chair. Qiao Qiao sculpted in her arms, trying hard to put both feet in his arms, trying to stuff them into his mouth.

"A few days ago, there was a person who brought my father's name card to look for disciples. His name was Jia Hua. He said that he was connected with my grandfather's family and wanted to visit disciples. However, disciples heard from the second master that this Jia Hua , the word Shi Fei, committed a crime of greed and cruelty, and was dismissed by the bureaucracy. In this case, the younger generation felt that his character was not good, so he shirked it because he was young and didn't know what happened, and asked his family to treat him well. I sent him away in one day. Just yesterday, the disciple went to his grandfather's house, and heard from his servants that the second aunt's sister, the wife who married into the Xue family in Jinling, was going to Beijing with his young lady and young master. , since Master Xue of his family went there last year, he has been on the road for a while, and he has been on the road for years, and now he has not entered Beijing in summer. Out of curiosity, the disciple asked a few servants, saying that Jia Hua, also known as Yucun, tried the case of the young master of the Xue family, and actually wrote a letter to his grandfather's house, saying that the son of the Xue family had beaten someone to death. He tried his best to clear the blame for the Xue family. The meaning of meritorious deeds is in it. The disciple felt a little panic in his heart, thinking that his grandfather's family was bold enough, and the whole family knew about such a secret matter, and besides, there were many gossips made by my elder sister, disciple, I beg you Master, it would be good to let my sister live in our mansion, my grandfather's house is not a place to stay for a long time."

Lin Yu is almost seven years old now. He left home early to live with others, and then Feng Gaoting took him to socialize. He knew some truths, but now he said the same thing. Situ Yue tilted his head and glanced at him, "Official Well, it’s been like this since ancient times. That Jia Yucun was proud of his talents, and scolded all the way from the upper official to the emperor. Long Yan was furious and dismissed immediately. Now that he enters the officialdom again, he doesn’t want to follow the same path as everyone else. Otherwise, this official will do the same. Not for long, no. Your maternal grandfather’s family, up to now, although your uncles are not able to do anything, but your grandfather’s residual prestige is still there. Jia Yucun can see clearly that his letter is not a show of merit, but a threat. The Rongguo Mansion has already become serious. Like a paper tiger, others don't know. Jia Yucun's walk in Jia's mansion is naturally clearer than others. If Jia's family is not used by him, or if he doesn't give him convenience, the Xue family's affairs will never end. Wang's family also don't think about it. .”

Lin Yu was taught, her little head was like a chicken pecking rice, suddenly Qiao Qiao turned over in Situ Yue's arms, her saliva dripped down, her butt pouted as if she wanted to crawl away, Situ Yue hugged her, The little girl let out a thin cry.

"Junior Sister is drooling again."

Situ Yue chuckled, wiped the veil for Qiao Qiao, and handed Qiao Qiao to the nurse who was waiting by the side, "Give it to the princess, it's time for the princess to go to bed, feed him first and then coax him to sleep " Then Lin Yu was sent to take a nap, and she lay on the rocking chair and swayed slowly.

Just as one corrupt official was removed from the Jiangnan officialdom, another corrupt official came in. The entire officialdom has been rotten from the root. Unless it is replaced on a large scale, or even completely replaced, Jiangnan will be able to live in peace for ten years.

Situ Yue stood up and strolled into the yard, watching a leaf being eaten by insects with several small holes, and the sunlight pouring down from it, the empire is like this leaf, covered with insects, and now it has begun to suffer One hundred holes, Situ Yue just wanted to mend it.

In the evening, everyone gathered in front of the emperor again. Since it was a family banquet, each family took their wives and children to Nanyuan. Situ Yue's precious baby, Qiao Qiao, sent Cheng Ju to ask several times in one night. Everyone realized that she now has only one child under her knees. The child's mood is mostly just a smile, but the ten kings who just got married last year understand Situ Yue very well.During the banquet, he said with emotion, "If you don't raise a child, you don't know the kindness of your parents. Now there is only one in the family. It is always caring and paying attention to it every day. It hurts so much that I can't express it." He raised his glass to toast the emperor's wine "This A cup of servants respecting the father, raising our brothers, the father has really worked hard."

The emperor drank a cup, "Now that your brothers are grown up, even though there are a few younger ones, I'm almost finished worrying about it, and I will become the head of the family in the future, so I have to think twice every day, take good care of the house, and raise the children into adults. "

Everyone stood up to receive the instruction, and drank a few more glasses. The princes and daughters came to offer wine in front of the emperor. They were tall, small, fat and thin, and they all came forward to greet their grandfathers. The childish words were innocent.The emperor was happy, and looked at the very smart little granddaughters, "The girls in our family are much smarter than the boys, and they should be like their father and brother, able to read and write, and understand right and wrong. Tomorrow, I will make an order for the princess The princess recruits companions to study, and let those talented and academically talented official girls accompany them to school."

On the second day, as expected, the decree was issued, and the officials' families responded one after another, sending their daughters into the palace to accompany them to school.These have nothing to do with Situ Yue, Qiao Qiao at home is too young, even going to school will be a few years later.She now puts her mind on the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

The Ministry of Officials has always had the right to appoint and transfer officials, except for those important places where the emperor personally intervenes, which is usually drafted by the Ministry of Officials and reviewed by the Emperor.The six ministers are all the emperor's confidantes, and Situ Yue thinks that he is more capable than the current official minister.Mentally listed several plans, and prepared to pry the corner of the official minister without a trace, and let him go home and eat by himself.

People's desires have no limits. At that time, Situ Yue only wanted to prove her ability, and didn't want to waste time in vain, so she became the secretary of the household department.Although he is hard-working, he is full of heart, never greedy or favoritism, although he is a cruel official, he is fair in dealing with things.

After everything was at her fingertips, she was no longer satisfied with proving herself in the household department, so she turned her attention to the official department.Using her inner benchmark to wantonly judge the fate of others, her methods are subtle and ruthless, small-minded and vengeful, she remembers not offending her own hatred, but the hatred of the person who offended her inner benchmark.

For the sake of convenience, all means have already begun.Mentality has changed, morality has been distorted, she comforted herself that this is what others deserve.

After a few days, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials submitted a letter to resign due to family affairs, and the emperor tried to persuade him to stay, but the old minister had decided to leave, and Situ Yue worked several times to take office.

All of a sudden, the officialdom was shaken. Situ Yue was notoriously a quiet person. She had a hard background, didn't like wine and beautiful women, didn't care about fame, and had almost no desire. Those who do not work in vain are like mourning and concubine, and the ruling and opposition parties lamented.

As soon as Situ Yue took office, he ordered the small officials to bring everyone's resumes, and separated them according to actual and false positions. They read all day long and night in the official department. go back.Those who have not been inquired about their vacant positions in Beijing wait outside the gate of the Ministry of Officials every day, and Situ Yue asks questions at any time.It was hot weather in July, and those who bought officials with money were fanned unceasingly in the shade of trees, mentally scolding Situ Yue countless times.

These vacant positions, if they have some skills, for example, Si Bo from the second princess's family, who is talented in literature, has a vacant position in the Imperial Academy. Situ Yue pointed to a candlestick on the table and ordered him to write an article. Si Bo used parallel style. In less than a quarter of an hour, I wrote more than 800 words, with gorgeous rhetoric and meaning.Situ was more than happy to let him go back to eat his salary for nothing. There was a vain job in the Ministry of Industry. Situ asked him about digging the canal, but he couldn't answer a single point, so he was dismissed immediately and kicked out.

Those who are related, such as the brother of the sixth princess, hurriedly begged the sixth king to find a real vacancy for him, and finally went to the sixth prince's mansion to become a small official who recorded documents. Sort out the real job again.The younger brother of the sixth concubine's direct relative had no choice but to stay in the sixth prince's mansion as a small official.It doesn't matter, I beg grandpa to tell grandma that he wants to start with the people around King Rong, to talk about love, to save face, and let King Rong let him go.The Rongguo Mansion and the Ningguo Mansion caught Lin Yu's various entreaties. Fortunately, Feng Gaoting took Lin Yu to visit friends after a few days. He was not in Beijing and had no one to intercede with them. It took two months. Keep [-]% of those who have been suspended from work and still receive their salary, and the remaining [-]% will be dismissed.

When the time came to September, Situ Yue's office was transferred from the Ministry of Officials to the Ministry of Households. Everyone in the Ministry of Officials let out a sigh of relief. The Qian Chuanzi of the department sat under the porch of the yamen and calculated the money and food with their abacus. At night, she deleted and revised the plan for evaluating officials.

In September, Situ Yue sent people from the household department to Dacang in the south of the Yangtze River. This year will also have a bumper harvest. The people from the household department will calculate the money and food in Jiangnan in the big warehouse in the south of the Yangtze River, so as to avoid what happened last year.

Just at the busy stalls of the household department, the emperor wanted to go to Iron Net Mountain for autumn hunting. It took more than 40 days. Fortunately, Iron Net Mountain was not far from the capital and could be reached in one day. But it's a big expense.

Situ Yue, like the previous Ministers of the Household Department, felt pain when he heard the emperor's holy car going out, and he clutched his money bag and didn't want to pay for it. However, the emperor didn't just go out to play, and many activities had extremely strong political significance.During this autumn outing, there were quite a few generals with real power and the Gyeonggi Guards. Situ Yue watched with a straight face and took away the food before it even entered the warehouse.All kinds of reluctance are simply tormenting people.

In the afternoon, Cao Laoshangshu from the Ministry of War cheerfully approached him, and talked about the difficulty for a while, and it was not easy for the brave soldiers.

"Boss, my lord has been sending out the food and pay all day long, and the documents we deliver are still in your old man's handprint. Why, don't say there is no food, or I will check to see if someone is greedy." pay."

"No, no," Old Shangshu Cao wiped off his cold sweat, thinking that this is a person who dares to fight against the emperor, and the emperor has nothing to do with it. He said that the check of the grain and salary is a real check, not just a few words to enjoy the fun that kind of person. "It was our soldiers from the Peking University who reported that a batch of swords were damaged too quickly, and I want you to allocate some money to rebuild them."

Situ lowered his head, scratched the abacus a few times, wrote down a few numbers on the paper with a brush, and said without raising his head, "The old man asked someone to calculate the money and report it. Don't worry, my household department is going to act quickly, and I should not delay your military training, sir."

Old Shangshu Cao left cheerfully, Situ Yue raised his head, looked at the old man's back, and quickly recalled the records of appropriating funds to the Ministry of War in his mind, and the more he recalled, the more he frowned.

The author has something to say: I want to tell everyone that the update time may not be fixed these days, and it will be fine after this week.

I love you guys.
