Chapter 257: First Grade Grain Official (2)
When did he, the prince whom everyone feared, become a city gate official in front of his own woman, and his martial arts is the best in the world, and also, did he rarely show his masculinity in front of her?Heh heh, it seems that tonight, a certain little woman is going to have a good experience of what it means to be masculine.

"What kind of official position does Yue Yue want for your prince?" Only then did the emperor realize that Jing Yue had not given up on her dream of being a "grain officer".

"First rank general!" Jingyue said calmly.

"What! Yue'er, don't mess around! Other officials can be appointed by the emperor himself, but this general can't, because to become a general, you must get the approval of all the soldiers, and you must stand on the battlefield. You can only do it if you have made great military exploits. Yu'er has neither stayed in a military camp nor been on a real battlefield. Even if the emperor makes a decree, the civil and military officials and the people of the world will not obey him." Mr. Song said in a serious tone .

"That's right, Yue girl, appointing a general is no joke. I am the Ninth Five-Year Honor, let alone do it recklessly." The emperor also got up formally.

"Father, grandpa, Yue'er understands what you said, but Yu is the most beloved son of the father, and I am the granddaughter of the grandfather's love, can't you love us more? Yue'er wants to see my lord become the king!" The majestic appearance of a first-rank general!" Jingyue said aggrievedly.

"Yue'er, you were not so unreasonable in the past, why are you so confused today, what happened?" Mr. Su asked suspiciously.

"Grandpa, I'm already married to someone else's wife. The prince is my heaven and everything to me. Naturally, I have to think about him in every way. Husband honors wife honor. Hmph, you are just a first-rank general. Are you so reluctant? It is impossible for my lord to be a third-rank food and salt official!" Jingyue deliberately played a small temper.

Only then did the emperor understand what Jingyue meant, but what was puzzling was why she didn't explain it directly, but said it in a roundabout way?However, seeing her deliberately glanced outside the house, everyone would agree.

"Yue girl, don't mess around anymore, first-rank generals can't be appointed just by appointment, don't you think that the food officials and salt officials are also appointed by appointment!" The emperor deliberately said with a straight face.

"Father, you are the emperor and the king of a country. What you say is the imperial decree. Who dares to disobey it! If you are really in trouble, then set up a ring to compete. I believe in the ability of my prince. He's ready to grab it." Jingyue said.

"It's too arrogant, I won't know his abilities, and your husband and wife will cause trouble for me!" The anger on the emperor's face became even stronger.

"Father, do you not trust your son, or do you dare not gamble?" Jingyue's temper also came up.

"There is nothing in this world that I dare not gamble with, how can you gamble!" The emperor also became angry.

"It's very simple. If my prince can be recognized by the generals and civil and military officials of the Xi Dynasty, then you have to make him a first-rank general. Of course, my daughter-in-law also understands the difficulty of the father, so I specially thought of a buffer for you." The method of opinion, and it can also block the mouths of the people of the world, that is in the form of a competition in the arena, and the other sons of the father can also participate in the competition, whoever wins will be a first-rank general, who can be in charge of a hundred thousand troops." Jingyue Said.

"No, [-] troops is no joke. There is no war now. If I give [-] troops to one of my sons, will my country still be safe?" said the emperor.

"That's [-]!" Jingyue took a step back.

"I can consider this, but the important ministers in the court may not agree!" The emperor thought for a while and said.

"Father, it's simple! If your sons are fighting for a first-rank general, then they—hmm—will fight for a first-rank grain officer, a first-rank salt officer, and a first-rank grand scholar!" Jingyue said casually.

Not to mention the emperor and Xiao Chenyu, even Long Wu and Lengmei who were beside him had vaguely guessed Jingyue's real purpose. It turned out that she was not aiming for a "first-rank general", but what she really liked was "first-rank general". "Grain official" and "Yipin salt official", such a clever Song Jiajingyue.

"The appointment of first-rank officials is a major national event. I want to go back to the palace and think about it carefully. Three old men, let's go to the palace with me and have a chat!" the emperor said solemnly.

"The minister waits to obey the order!" The three old men stood up and bowed down to accept the order.

As soon as the emperor and the others left the Yue Palace, the spies that Jingyue let in deliberately left the Yue Palace quietly. An hour later, the betting between Princess Yue and the Emperor on the ring competition caught the ears of many people.

The next day, most of the rich ladies and daughters in the capital received invitations from Yue Wangfei to invite them to a banquet in the mansion. Some people also heard that although the concubines in the harem did not have invitations, many people received invitations from Yue Wangfei. The gift box sent, as for what is inside, only the person concerned knows.

Later, someone heard from the palace that the emperor specially set up four positions of first-rank general, first-rank grain officer, first-rank salt officer, and first-rank bachelor.

For a while, everyone from the royal relatives to the seventh-rank officials all stared at these four sweet pastries, and they all understood the purpose of Princess Yue's inviting people to the banquet. minister.

On the day Jingyue invited the family members of all the officials to a banquet at the Palace of Yue, the Prince's Mansion and King Jin's Mansion also held a group banquet, and all the ladies in the palace also received gift boxes.

In the past, the relationship between the Yue Palace and the officials was not very good. Although Xiao Chenyu and Jingyue's actions in the past two years have won them a lot of favor and support, they are still a little worse than the Crown Prince and King Jin. That's why there weren't many people who went to the Palace of Yue to have a banquet that day. Except for the few palaces where Jingyue and Jingyue had a good relationship, the others went to the little masters who were not valued in the palaces.

Jingyue had expected this to happen a long time ago, and she didn't mind, she still welcomed and entertained the guests warmly, and when the guests left, she even gave away a lot of things.

"Princess Yue, do you really want to make Prince Yue a first-rank general?" After the banquet, An Ruiqian asked Jingyue in a low voice before leaving.

"Mr. An, you're joking, it's just hearsay, don't believe it!" Jingyue said indifferently.

Everyone saw that Jingyue didn't want to tell the truth, but seeing that she clearly wanted to do so on her face, they also had confidence in their hearts. It seemed that the rumors from the outside world were true, and Princess Yue really wanted to win over the ministers to find an errand for Prince Yue.

Three days later, the emperor made a formal decree, stating that it was for the sake of the country of the Xi Dynasty, to promote a lot of talents, so there are four special positions for the first rank, and the emperor personally drafts the questions, and the public assessment is open. All royal children and civil and military officials can apply join.

"Miss, do you really want my uncle to participate in that first-rank general competition?" Leng Yu has heard a lot of rumors outside these days, saying that all the officials are going to fight for the four first-rank officials.
