The fourth day of October

After a few days of snow, the capital has become a world covered with silver. In the early morning of this day, the heavy snow suddenly began to fall, which thickened the plain white silver package.

Noon

In the princess's mansion, Ma Jin, surrounded by Zhu Hu and others, came to the backyard with an umbrella and snow.

As soon as he entered the room, the servant maid who had been waiting for him hurriedly removed the cloaked leather hat stained with snowflakes and cold air for Ma Jin, took clean clothes and changed it to him, and took the hand stove to warm his hands for Ma Jin who was sitting next to the fire tripod.

………

"call………"

His mouth was breathing. Today, Ma Jin was frozen outside. He held the hand stove and refused to let go. He was close to the fire tripod. Until Yan Yan personally brought a bowl of chicken soup that had been simmering on the stove in the kitchen, Ma Jin finally made other moves.

He reached out to take the porcelain bowl, took the spoon and took a few sips. He felt the warm current hovering from his mouth to his stomach. Ma Jin breathed a sigh of relief and slowly recovered his energy.

Drink the chicken soup while it was hot, and then handed the spoon to Banxia. Ma Jin turned around and looked at Zhu Hu and others who were still standing next to him, and said with a smile.

"You are exhausted today after you follow me. I won't go out anyway, so you all go back and rest.

I will ask the kitchen to prepare some wine and vegetables for you to warm your stomach and relieve your cold, so that you can relieve your fatigue."

Zhu Hu and his men hurriedly thanked Ma Jin and retreated. After they left, Yan Yan also waved the other servants in the room, leaving only Banxia and Bai Zhi and some confidants to serve him.

………

He sat down next to Ma Jin, looking at Ma Jin who was still holding a hand stove, and said with a heartache.

"I have said that you shouldn't go out in such a cold day. Anyway, I've already taken a leave of absence. Can't I take a break at home for two days? Is there any errand to let others take care of?"

"It's not my unlucky...ahem..."

Ma Jin looked at Banxia and the others beside him, swallowed the three words "father-in-law" behind him, and said with a wry smile.

"...Well, I can't refuse the errands assigned by my father."

The couple was in the same mood. As soon as Ma Jin spoke, Yan Yan knew what he was talking about below. She first gave Ma Jin a blank look, and then Yan Yan asked Banxia and others to retreat.

After the room was gone, Yan Yan frowned and began to blame her father.

"My father is really good. Before the cold wind and cold you had in front of you was fine, I just sent you a mission to do everything, and let you stay together every day, and I'm not so partial..."

………

"Ahem!"

Although she understands that a married daughter is like a splashed water, she is often happy when Yan Yan faces her father and brother, but she always stands on her side and is a great virtuous wife.

But I have to say that this sentence is really too...that's what, even Ma Jin, who takes advantage, can't listen to it.

Emperor Jingkang sent Ma Jin continuously, which was undoubtedly a manifestation of his respect. The more frequent this phenomenon, the more it means that Emperor Jingkang trusted Ma Jin.

No one knows the entire capital at present. Ma Jin, the fifth prince-consort, has won the holy heart, and this holy family is also the best in the court. Although Ma Jin does not like trouble and has no intention of career, he has to admit that this is a heavy glory.

If Yan Yan's words were spread, there was no need to say much about Emperor Jing Kang's mood. Luo Ziwen and Han Xiang's son-in-law would have to die.

They would rather not be so biased, because they would rather Emperor Jingkang call them every day. The more errands, the better, it would be better than being forgotten and idle.

They are also the prince-consort, watching Ma Jin calling out the wind and rain outside every day, and the scenery is infinite, making everyone know the name of the fifth prince-consort, Ma Jin. However, they can only play with the majesty of the prince-consort at home, and even a certain prince-consort cannot even play with the majesty of the prince-consort, and they are beaten by their wives all day long.

Tsk, my eyes were almost jealous and bleeding...

………

Ma Jin was so amused that he rubbed Yan Yan's little head. He also knew that Yan Yan was intentional and deliberately made jokes to relieve his anger, so as not to have a gap with Emperor Jingkang.

Smiling helplessly, Ma Jin reached out to his wife and said, "Forget it, I can rest after this errand. My father said before that I will remove the errand of the palace's censor in a few days, and then I will be a deputy inspector of the Censor of Gyeonggi Province, the fourth rank."

"The fourth rank? Deputy Gyeonggi-do advisor? Why have he been promoted so much at once?" Yan Yan sat up from Ma Jin's arms, with a pretty face full of surprise.

Ma Jin is now in charge of the fifth rank. When he mentioned the fourth rank, he was promoted to two levels in a row. In addition, the deputy inspector of Gyeonggi Province can usually be the third rank. Ma Jin is in this position at the fourth rank, which is considered an exception. According to the past practices of the officialdom in the big business, as long as Ma Jin takes the deputy inspector of the second rank, he will naturally be promoted to the third rank after two years of transition.

In this way, Ma Jin is equivalent to three consecutive promotions, which is rare in a major effort with regulations on promotion.

"What famous paintings have you given to your father? Your father is so generous to you." Yan Yan blurted out.

“………”

Ma Jin stared at Yan Yan with a dark face, inexplicably sad and angry. In your heart, I will give gifts and be promoted. I can't rely on my real ability to be promoted. What's the mentality?

However... Old Man Cai is really hard to fool. He almost got tired of the words for the sake of the "Night Rain Picture"... Cough cough...

………

Of course, "Night Rain Picture" is just a bonus. No matter how much Emperor Jingkang likes famous paintings, he cannot even upgrade to Ma Jin's third rank for a painting. The reason why Ma Jin was awarded such a reward was due to Emperor Jingkang's compensation for Ma Jin.

Ma Jin handed over the six doors prepared by himself to the Ministry of Justice...

As mentioned before, Ma Jin was not very interested in the Six Gates, but after all, this yamen was established by Ma Jin, and the framework and backbone inside were recruited and created by Ma Jin.

This time, Ma Jin was selfless and handed over to the court when the Six Gates were initially prepared. In terms of reason, Emperor Jingkang would give his son-in-law some compensation.

In fact, if Emperor Jingkang hadn't thought Ma Jin was too young, he would have left some reward space, so he would have been promoted to the third rank this time. However, this is the case. The deputy censor of the Gyeonggi Province Inspectorate, who was the fourth rank, would have been satisfied with Ma Jin.

Since he first entered the official position in the 17th year of Emperor Jingkang, Ma Jin has reached the fourth rank in less than three years. He has been in the 14th dynasty of Dagan, and his promotion speed has also been at the forefront. In the dynasty of Jingkang, he is even more scorpion cake-poison.

………

"Oh, I have no intention of career for my husband. I just want to live a leisurely life, but I don't want things to go against my wishes. This official is getting bigger and bigger, and I'm really worried..."

Ma Jin told Yan Yan about the matter, and then began to shake his head and pretend to be a silence.

Yan Yan gave him a blank look and said she didn't want to pay attention to him, but Ma's promotion was also a happy event. She began to think about how to celebrate the imperial edict of Ma's promotion in a few days.

The couple chatted for a while, and Yan Yan said as if she had remembered something.
