Chapter 503
However, Jia Hui remembered
that this girl did indeed break off the engagement with Lou Yao later.
But she was supposed to marry another, a Prince Xiao of Yong.
As it turned out, this Prince Xiao was wiped out because of rebellion.
Then He He He Zhaojun's father and brothers died in battle, leaving only a younger brother of a few years old to be raised.
As a result, the Emperor believed the He family had merit, and in the end, they could only rely on the Lou family's pity, and this He He He Zhaojun was re-betrothed to Lou Yao.
"Master He He, looking at it this way, this marriage between He He He Zhaojun and Jia Jia Jia Lian might not go smoothly."
Jia Hui smiled slightly.
If one can break an engagement once, one can do it twice.
The reason He He He Zhaojun broke off the engagement was that she wasn't very smart.
She was used by this Prince Xiao.
Prince Xiao, for the sake of his family's interests, lured He He He Zhaojun into breaking off the engagement with Lou Yao.
Later, he used He He He Zhaojun's family influence to shield himself.
He was a scumbag who colluded with the enemy, committed treason, was fickle, and bullied others with his power.
Most abominably, Prince Xiao, for his own interests, did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of all of He He He Zhaojun's clansmen.
Afterwards, this Prince Xiao's conspiracy
was exposed by Ling Ling Ling Buyi.
In the end, Prince Xiao was gifted a cup of poisoned wine by the Emperor.
Thus,
Jia Hui was just about to investigate the situation of this Prince Xiao.
"My Lord, a Jia Hua, Jia Yucun, has come to seek an audience."
At this time, Lin Lin Lin Hongyu, Xiao Hong, came to report.
Hearing this name,
Lady Wang asked in confusion: "Jia Yucun? Isn't he the Prefect in Yingtian Prefecture? Why has he come to the capital?"
Jia Hui was drinking hot tea and, hearing this, asked: "Do you know this person?"
"He was originally from Huzhou, born into a family of officials and scholars, but by his generation, after several generations, the ancestral foundation was long gone, the family population had declined, and he was the only one left, reduced to a poor scholar."
"A few years ago, because of his corruption and favoritism, he was personally dismissed by His Majesty, then hired by Lin Ruhai's family to be Lin Lin Daiyu's enlightenment teacher, and through his relationship with Lin Ruhai, he attached himself to the Jia Prefecture."
"And with Jia Zheng's help, this person not only regained his official rank but even became the Prefect of Yingtian Prefecture in Jin Ling."
Speaking of this Jia Yucun, Lady Wang was indifferent and somewhat dismissive.
This was understandable; after all, he was a down-and-out person who climbed up by attaching himself to the Jia family.
Lady Wang's dismissal was understandable.
"Prefect, fourth-rank, right."
Jia Hui said indifferently.
This rank was not low; it was a bureau-level position.
Equivalent to a modern provincial-level, regional, or prefecture-level city mayor.
Prefects had another title in the past, namely Grand Warden.
Taking "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as an example,
people could often see that during the time of the warlords, the various regional Wardens were often an important component of the warlords.
"I have also heard of this person; it is said he is a talented person."
Seeing Seeing Fengjie opened her lips and said.
Zhao Zhao Zhao Paner nodded and said: "It is true that he is talented; he passed the imperial examination, was selected for the external class, and then promoted to County Magistrate. That he could pass the exam on the first try shows his talent and knowledge."
"However, as far as I know, my father seemed to have mentioned this person before, saying he was corrupt and cruel, and also someone who relied on his talent to insult his superiors."
The nineteenth concubine, Sheng Sheng Sheng Hualan, shook her head and said.
Her father, Sheng Hong, was a Censor, so it was not strange that he had impeached and mentioned this Jia Yucun.
Jia Hui smiled slightly: "Hmm, indeed, this person does not have the look of longevity. As the saying goes: 'People leave a name, geese leave a sound'; as an official, one must not underestimate this word 'name'."
He was a high-ranking court official, Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, Deputy Regional Commander, second-rank Grand General, Pacification General, and second-rank Crown Prince's Tutor.
Therefore, his judgment of these things appeared particularly weighty and convincing.
Jia Jia Yuanchun and the others were all looking at Jia Hui infatuatedly.
Even Concubine Zhao felt that Jia Hui was even more infinitely charming at this moment.
Seeing that all the women loved to listen,
Jia Hui intended to give them a lesson.
[513] The Way of Being an Official, Promoting Xun Baishui to Provincial Governor; Concubine Zhao: I Can't Fall Behind
"As a person in a high position, one must make the best use of one's position to find ways to get more high hats for oneself; whether snatched or earned, in short, no matter what method is used to get them, you must not, and should not, be polite."
"Therefore, as an official, the better your reputation, the greater your political achievements will naturally be. In this way, you have the capital to keep climbing up, and there is no need to fear others saying you are fishing for fame!"
"Actually, 'fishing' or 'seeking'! As long as you can win a good name, you have achieved your goal."
"This 'name' actually doesn't just refer to your name in officialdom; it also includes your name among the common people."
"Actually, flattering superiors is not difficult, and bullying subordinates is also not difficult; the truly most difficult thing is to have both superiors and subordinates praise you."
Jia Hui's words showed the true depth.
Ordinary people simply didn't have this kind of insight.
The height of his political level
was standing on top of a high mountain.
After listening, the women felt their whole bodies go soft!
"Husband...!!"
Hearing Jia Hui's words,
the eighteenth concubine, Gao Hui, stared at Jia Hui with deep affection and said: "However, Husband has achieved it; you are a hero of the country, a pillar of the country. The Emperor praises you and relies on you, and the people also trust and respect you!"
"That's right!"
"Husband is the most amazing!"
Sheng Sheng Rulan, Sheng Sheng Molan, Minglan, Shiniang, and others were all full of pride.
"So, Husband, you think this Jia Yucun doesn't have a good reputation and won't be good in the future?" Jia Jia Yuanchun asked in surprise.
"That's right, from the beginning he had the 'name' of being 'corrupt and cruel, and relying on talent to insult superiors'; his current re-employment and his stirring up trouble in officialdom are all based on his scheming, opportunism, baseness, shamelessness, and flattering superiors while bullying subordinates."
"This is a sign that he doesn't know how to be an official. Since he doesn't know how to be an official, then you can imagine, how can his official career last long?"
Jia Hui nodded and shook his head.
Corruption is not the problem, but not knowing how to be an official is.
Then it certainly cannot last long.
In his memory,
this Jia Yucun was just Love Love Like that.
Later, he did indeed rely on this founding generation, and because of his painstaking efforts and scheming, he climbed to the position of first-rank Grand Marshal.
However, the ending was, "Because he disliked the official hat being small, he ended up wearing shackles."
Love Love Like Wang Wang Wang Ziteng, Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun only used them temporarily, and in the end, they would all collapse one by one.
Jia Hui sneered: "This guy is even worse than that Zhongshan wolf."
"How so?"
"This person is a person with a bad reputation, blinded by greed, cruel, heartless, flattering to superiors and bullying to subordinates, and ungrateful."
"Even worse than the Zhongshan wolf."
"Jia Zheng and the Jia family are people without any vision or political level; whether it's Wang Wang Wang Ziteng, the Zhongshan wolf, or this Jia Yucun, they are all ungrateful traitors who eventually bite back."
Speaking to the end, Jia Hui mocked.
