Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 356 The female official of the Wei family, watch the punishment at the Meridian Gate!
Wei Yao was stunned for a while, she never expected that she would be known by Jian Guo.

It's just that she still has doubts in her heart, and said: "It's an honor for Minnv to be able to work in the secretariat. However, Minnv is the only daughter in the family. If she enters the palace, I'm afraid my father will not be taken care of, and there will be no one to take care of the shop at home."

Wei Yao was indeed recommended by Liu Zhu.

But since Auntie Zhu agreed to her joining the secretariat, she naturally sent someone to inquire about the situation in Wei Yao's family, and even the three generations of her ancestors.

Liu Shuying is also clear.

She smiled and said: "Let you join the secretariat as a clerk, not as a court lady, you can go out of the palace and go home every day after you leave your job.

As for your father, although he is not in good health, he doesn't have to be taken care of at home, right?What's more, there are servants and handmaids in your house.

Your 'Yingchunfang' is just a small shop, whether you let the servants take care of it, or hire a knowledgeable shopkeeper, they can replace you.

However, the opportunity to enter the secretariat is just this time for you, if you miss it, you will not regret it in the future. "

The secretariat has just been established, and currently only Liu Shuying is a secretary from the seventh rank, and there is no official under him.

For some errands, she can still second the Royal Forest Army and Imperial Guards, but some simple and complicated copywriting tasks need to be done slowly by herself, which leads to low efficiency.

Therefore, in order to increase the manpower of the secretariat as soon as possible, Liu Shuying also took great pains in recruiting Wei Yao, a small businesswoman.

Wei Yao was indeed moved by Liu Shuying's words.

But taking a woman as an official is a shocking act after all, and she was worried about the store, so she said, "Can Secretary Liu let the women think about it and reply tomorrow?"

Liu Shuying nodded, "Yes."

Before leaving, Wei Yao asked mysteriously again: "Secretary Liu, I heard that officials with accounting certificates also have the opportunity to be promoted to officials, but is it true?"

Liu Shuying said with a smile: "In my Ming Dynasty, there was a practice of promoting officials from among the officials, but it was generally a special case, and the threshold was very high.

However, if you enter the secretariat as a clerk, you are not considered an official, and there is no threshold for transferring from official to official. "

Hearing Liu Shuying's words, Wei Yao was even more surprised, and immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Secretary Liu, for calling me."

For such a big event, after returning home, Wei Yao naturally told her old father Wei Songqing immediately.

She thought that Wei Songqing would strongly oppose it, but after listening to it, Wei Songqing said: "Then Secretary Liu really said that you, a secretary in the secretariat, are equivalent to an official?"

"That's exactly what it said."

"She won't lie to you, will she?"

"Secretary Liu is a female official close to Jian Guo, how could he deceive a woman?"

"Crack!" Wei Songqing slapped his thigh excitedly, "My dear daughter, what are you still hesitating about? Agree on the spot!
That's official status, and our old Wei family has never had an official in eight generations.

If you become an official, our old Wei family will be regarded as changing the lintel! "

Wei Yao was stunned by the old father's reaction for a while, and then smiled wryly: "Father, if my daughter enters the palace as a female official, it will be even more difficult to marry. Don't you worry about having no descendants?"

"Hiss, this is indeed a problem." Wei Songqing pinched his beard and frowned, and said immediately: "However, if you get an official position, if you lower your eyes, it must not be difficult to recruit a son-in-law, right?

In short, such a good thing we never dreamed of before, you must agree.As for marriage, we can talk about it later. "

Obviously, Wei Songqing really wanted his daughter to be an official.

Because he has been in business for decades, he is too aware of the difference between having officials in his family and not having officials.

What's more, the daughter has been favored by the princess Jian Guo this time, maybe she can really step into the officialdom if she accidentally says it, and fly up the branches and become a phoenix.

Thinking of the demeanor of the three female officials, Liu Shuying, Liu Zhu, and Lianqiao, Wei Yao was also fascinated.

So he said: "Then my daughter will really be a clerk in the secretariat, but what should I do with Yingchunfang?"

Wei Songqing hesitated for a moment, then said: "If you become an official, it will be difficult for our family to do business again.

Didn't the second, third, and fourth rooms keep clamoring for our eldest room to hand over the management rights of Yingchunfang?Let's leave it to them!
However, after this, how much dividends the big house of Yingchunfang will get, it should be discussed with them.After all, our Ayao is an official now, and it is not what it used to be. "

Although Wei Songqing is in poor health, he has a hot-tempered temperament, so he made up his mind, and immediately asked the servant to call the other three housekeepers to discuss the matter today.

The other three members of the Wei family were shocked when they learned that Wei Yao was going to be an official, and they couldn't believe it.

But thinking about it, the princess supervises the country now, and there is a female general under her command, so she thinks it is not uncommon for the princess to use a female officer.

Then when Wu Zetian became the empress, didn't she also use a group of female officials, among them were even Shangguan Wan'er and other figures whose names have lasted through the ages.

Then thinking that if Wei Yao became an official, it would be beneficial to all the houses of the Wei family, so when discussing with Wei Songqing to renegotiate the dividends for the four houses of Yingchunfang, they became very talkative.

While the Wei family was discussing the "major matter", the streets of Nanjing were filled with the sound of gongs and the voices of the imperial guards shouting with loudspeakers.

Wei Songqing immediately stopped the family meeting and asked the servants to go outside to find out what the guards were shouting.

After a while, the servant came back to report.

"It is said that at noon tomorrow, the corrupt officials of the household department and the military department will be publicly executed outside the Meridian Gate, and the common people will be allowed to watch.

However, in order to avoid too many people watching the sentence, crowding and stampede happened, people were drawn from all neighborhoods, a total of 1 people were drawn from the whole city. "

Wei Songqing and the other principals of the third room couldn't help being silent for a while, and then they all looked at Wei Yao.

"Daddy and the three uncles, what do uncles see me for?" Wei Yao was puzzled.

Wei Songqing was worried immediately, and said earnestly: "Ayao, it is a good thing for you to be an official in the palace. But remember, don't be corrupt, our old Wei's family is not short of that money. Do you understand?"

The other three elders nodded and instructed.

"Yes, yes, you must not be corrupt."

"I heard that these corrupt officials are all going to steal their homes. Our old Wei family has been in business for several generations, and at least they have accumulated some wealth. We can't pay the old Wei family for money."

"Copying the house is a small matter, if the family is copied and the family is wiped out, it will be over."

Hearing these words, Wei Yao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "Father and all uncles and uncles, don't worry, Ayao is determined to be self-absorbed and serve the public, and will never let the old Wei family get in the dark."

"Hey, that's a good point, as it should be."

···
The next day.

Aunt Zhu met Huang Daozhou again in the Wuying Hall.

It was Huang Daozhou who took a few days to preliminarily draw up the procedures and ceremonies for her ascension to the base, and wrote a memorial and submitted it.

After reading it, Auntie Zhu found that it was indeed done according to the normal enthronement process of the Ming emperor with a slightly shortened process, and she couldn't help nodding in satisfaction.

Immediately she made some suggestions, such as the use of audio when chanting prayers.

Hao Guangming also took the opportunity to make some comments, such as adding a military parade.

Anyway, there are Imperial Forest Army, Imperial Guard Army, Frontier Guard Army, Garrison Army, and Industrial Army Army in Nanjing now.

Even Jinyiwei, Flying Eagles, and the radio team were there.

The radio team can keep it a secret and not reveal it.

But the matter of the Flying Eagles has probably been discovered by the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, there is no need to deliberately conceal its existence. The Flying Eagles can send a few drone teams to hold a colorful smoke flight show on the day Zhu Yuxi ascends the throne.

Such a generous display of force might scare the Qing soldiers back out of the pass.

Although Huang Daozhou was very surprised by Zhu Yuxi and Hao Guangming's suggestion, they both agreed to participate in the enthronement ceremony.

Because in Huang Daozhou's view, this is indeed a good way to declare the martial arts of the Ming Dynasty and deter dissidents and foreign enemies in the local area.

It can also increase the people's confidence in Daming.

It can be said to serve multiple purposes.

After Huang Daozhou left the Hall of Martial Arts, he was about to go home for lunch, but he saw many officials walking towards the Meridian Gate, and some of them were talking in low voices.

Don't listen, he also knows that he is talking about today's execution of corrupt officials from the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War.

As a master of Confucianism who truly uses Confucian principles to cultivate himself, Huang Daozhou also hates corrupt officials.

Therefore, although he felt that Auntie Zhu had dealt with too many people this time and the punishment was a bit heavy, he didn't advise anything.

Knowing that tens of thousands of people were watching the execution outside, and the road was blocked for a while, Huang Daozhou came to the South Ring Corridor on the second floor of the main hall of the Meridian Gate, and watched the punishment with some officials from the six ministries...
