Chapter 640
Qian Feifei is indeed smarter than Mao Yanxia.
In the three years since Lin Wan came to Shu, Qian Feifei paid the most attention to every time she wrote to her, Lin Wan's life in Shu. After the inkstone was born, the most common thing she talked about was the parenting scripture.
Even after the Ye family rebellion and Ye Qing was forced to release him, Qian Feifei only expressed her guilt towards Mao Yanxia and concerns about Ye Qing's future in the first two letters. She rarely mentioned the past in the subsequent letters, and she only said nothing about Ye Qing's future.
This letter today is an exception. It uses a large amount of space to describe the life of the family of five in Ye Qing’s place, and even brings together the political achievements and evaluations that Ye Qing has achieved in the past two years.
Of course, Ye Qing's political achievements and evaluation are not as good as Ye Shen, but they are considered to be of top quality. With such political achievements and evaluation, Ye Qing's official career should be smooth.
However, Ye Qing not only did not rise, but also failed to stay in An County. Instead, he was transferred from An County, which was not far from the capital, to Wuyuan County, which was transferred to Shu, to continue to be the county magistrate.
It is not difficult to see Qian Feifei's anger from her letter, but Lin Wan felt a little secretly happy from these anger.
Lin Wan was surprised by Ye Qing's transfer.
Generally speaking, the transfer of officials below the fourth rank is basically decided by the Ministry of Personnel and does not require His Majesty the Emperor.
Lin Wan's father Lin Wenbo has been firmly in the Minister of Personnel for many years. Ye Qing was Ye Shen's elder brother, so Ye Qing's transfer this time really surprised Lin Wan.
In Pian Lin Wenbo's rare handwritten letter, Ye Qing's mobilization was not mentioned in a word.
Could it be that Mao Yanqiu could have passed Lin Wenbo's intervention in the transfer of officials, or that officials under the Ministry of Personnel were hiding Lin Wenbo's actions?
Although Lin Wenbo was a little weak in civil affairs, he was one of the few capable ministers in the officialdom. Otherwise, he would not have been appointed as the Minister of Personnel in his early forties, and he would not have been able to have been in the position of Minister of Personnel for so many years.
Then there is only one possibility. Lin Wenbo nodded in Ye Qing’s transfer!
So does Ye Shen know about this?
Lin Wan turned her inquiring eyes to Ye Shen: "Do you know if your eldest brother is transferred to Wuyuan County Magistrate?"
Ye Shen was sorting out the letter on the table. When he heard Lin Wan's words, the muscles on his face were obviously stiffened slightly. When he raised his head, he had returned to normal. He nodded to Lin Wan and said, "The Qianya just received the official document from the Ministry of Personnel yesterday. This time, in addition to the eldest brother who will come to Wuyuan County under Yuzhou Prefecture to serve as the county magistrate, your fourth brother-in-law will also come to Yuzhou to serve."
Fourth brother-in-law? Lin Jing’s husband Jiang Li!
Another news that surprised Lin Wan deeply.
Three years ago, Lin Wan and Ye Shen came to Shu, while Lin Jing followed Jiang Li, who was also released, to Taicheng.
Although the two sisters often have letters, one is in the north and the other is in Shu, and even if each letter can be delivered to each other, the sisters are still a little distant.
Suddenly hearing that Jiang Li was coming to Yuzhou to work, Lin Wan was ecstatic and almost left Ye Qing's affairs behind.
"I should come to Yuzhou with Lin Da and the others after the New Year." Seeing the surprise in Lin Wan's eyes, Ye Shen couldn't help but chuckled slightly, and simply arranged the arrangements of Ye Qing and Jiang Li and the others in Lin Wan.
Ye Shen was indeed a little uneasy when Lin Wan suddenly asked about Ye Qing. After all, he did not tell Lin Wan the news that Ye Qing was about to come to Wuyuan County to take up his post in time.
Lin Wan had no intention of pursuing the truth. It was also good for Ye Qing to come to Wuyuan County to be the county magistrate. It was much better than being thrown into the corner that Ye Shen could not take care of by Mao Yanqiu.
Compared to Ye Qing and Qian Feifei, Lin Wan is more looking forward to Lin Jing's arrival.
Jiang Li came to the Yuzhou Prefectural Office to work, and their sisters could live in a big house like they got married.
"Wanwan has to work harder. Let's see if the yard is packed out and live with the fourth sister and the others. I want Butler Qi to buy a house in Yuzhou City, so that there will be a place to rest when his elder brother and sister-in-law come to Yuzhou City. Wanwan thinks it's good?" Before Lin Wan could speak, she listened to Ye Shen.
This really happened to Lin Wan.
Jiang Li came to the prefect's office to work, and his wife was Lin Wan's fourth sister, so she naturally had to live in the backyard of the government office.
The backyard of the prefect's yard is spacious compared to Nanzhu. The Nanzhu County yard is divided into four or five yards. The yard divided into the backyard of the Yuzhou PM's yard will not be less than that of Nanzhu.
As the prefect and the top leader of Yuzhou, Ye Shen naturally lives in the most grand and spacious main courtyard.
Although Lin Zimo is the second-in-command of the prefectural office, he will not live in the backyard of the government office like Nanzhu. Jiang Li came to Yuzhou this time to serve as a sixth-rank magistrate, in charge of Yuzhou grain transportation, homeland, water conservancy and litigation matters. Like Lin Zimo, he is an important assistant to Ye Shen.
Jiang Li's ranking in the imperial examination was not very high, but she was much faster than Ye Qing.
This is not unrelated to Jiang Li being the serious son-in-law of Zhennan Hou Mansion.
Of course, Zhennan Hou Mansion has its own descendants to be cultivated, and there are not many resources that can give son-in-law, and even fewer and fewer.
Although Ye Shen took office as the magistrate of Nanzhu County as a sixth-rank official was the result of Ye Shen's own choice, it was because the little boy gave Ye Shen not much resources at that time.
Of course, because Lin Wenbo was sitting in the position of Minister of Personnel, and Ye Shen's outstanding political achievements in the past three years have not been misled, Ye Shen's promotion has become a natural result.
Of course, it is not that no one questioned Ye Shen's promotion speed, and even as Lin Wan's mother's family, Zhennan Hou Mansion caused a big and small storm.
Although Lin Wan is in Shu, she is concerned about Lin Xiuwu and Cai, who are far away in the capital, who are still in the Zhennan Hou Mansion, and can understand the movements of Zhennan Hou Mansion in a timely manner. She naturally knows that the storm caused by Ye Shen's upgrade in Zhennan Hou Mansion this time.
Because Ye Shen was promoted to three levels this time, he surpassed Lin Yan's husband in terms of grades, which made Tang very dissatisfied and muttered in Lin Wenjie's ears many times. Of course, Tang was careful and did not mention Lin Yan's son-in-law, but used Lin Hongzhi, the third wife, as a son.
Lin Hongzhi was also a Jinshi, about the same age as Ye Shen. Now he is only a seventh-rank county magistrate, but Ye Shen has become a fourth-rank prefect.
Lin Wenjie was still martial, and his mind was not as meticulous as a scholar. After listening to Tang's muttering, he thought that Ye Shen was already a fourth-rank official at this age. He was indeed promoted faster, so he did not think deeply. One day, he directly questioned Lin Wenbo in front of Lin Xiuwu and Cai. Compared with Ye Shen and Lin Hongzhi, he clearly accused Lin Wenbo of being biased towards his son-in-law and neglecting his nephew.
Lin Xiuwu and Cai are both mature people. As soon as Lin Wenjie said something, he had already guessed the cause and effect. His eyes looked at Tang's family and became more unkind, and Cai's face turned pale even more angry.
Lin Wenbo explained it happily and repeatedly stated his position. As the Minister of Personnel, he would never be biased because of his distantness with him. He would treat everyone equally as long as he made achievements.
Lin Wenbo finally said that in his eyes, his son-in-law and nephew are close to his younger generations. He will help those who can help, and even those who cannot help, he will not help even his own son.
