Chapter 668: Top Scholar’s Wife
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hua Rou really felt sorry. She had misunderstood All Yu previously. Later on, her cousin almost caused trouble for All Yu’s fiance.
Regardless of whether the other party had suffered any substantial harm, she had to express her apology. This was also the most basic principle of the Hua Family.
“There’s no need, right? I’m not sure about what’s going on in the exam hall either, and 1 can’t find out now. Why don’t we wait until after the exam and see what the examiners say?” Ah Yu listened to Meatball’s description. Now that she knew that Qin Huai was completely free of suspicion and was already continuing with the exam, she was naturally very relieved.
She was not worried that Big Brother All You would be implicated because Big Brother All You was a smart and upright person to begin with. He would definitely not do things that violated the law.
Thinking of what Qin Huai had done previously, Ah Yu added in her heart, “Even if it’s against the law, it must be because the law is imperfect.”
What she was worried about was that Big Brother All You would not be able to fulfill his promise to her and his mood would be affected. If he couldn’t become the top scholar, he would be unhappy.
Others might not know, but she knew very well that Big Brother Ah You valued his promise to her very much. Moreover, he was the kind of person who would be very demanding to himself.
He wanted her to be the top scholar’s wife.
“In that case, let’s put it aside for now. If we determine that my brother is indeed in the wrong, our family definitely won’t avoid responsibility,” Hua Rou said. “Moreover, previously, you asked my father to save the people in the mine. My father also received praise. We have to repay this favor.”
However, before receiving the praise, General Hua was impeached first. Some people said that he had left his post, and some people from the Ministry of Public Works said that he had snatched their equipment.
However, compared to the merit of saving the Eldest Prince, these minor accusations amounted to nothing.
In the current Great Chang imperial harem, no one is fighting alone. For example, even though the Eldest Prince’s mother is not favored, her family is a genuine prestigious family with more than ten first-rank officials in their ancestry. The newly appointed Grand Councilor, who is also the Eldest Prince’s grandfather, belongs to their family.
Therefore, saving the Eldest Prince was extremely worth it.
For instance, not only did General Hua’s salary double, but the Grand Councilor also did him a favor by allocating some of the jurisdiction over the Military Affairs Bureau to General Hua.
The Military Affairs Bureau is a special place that governs 230,000 armed soldiers within the Great Chang Imperial City. Among them, 30,000 are the imperial family’s personal guards, and 50,000 are relatives of the aristocrats of the third rank or higher, forming an elite force composed of true imperial relatives and nobles. The rest consists of patrol troops and guards stationed within the Imperial City.
It could be said that these 230,000 people were all the troops that Wanning City could mobilize on the surface.
As for the troops raised in the dark, it was another matter.
The Military Affairs Bureau was jointly managed by the Ministry of War, the Cabinet, and the Emperor. Very few ordinary military officials could obtain the authority to manage it.
Most of the generals on duty in Wanning City, such as General Hua, actually had idle positions. They could usually bring the soldiers out to scare people or perform rescue operations at critical moments, but bringing them to war and killing people required approval.
The soldiers in the camp under his previous jurisdiction did not have the authority to arrest people, and their range of activity was extremely small.
Now, General Hua also had a small portion of the Ministry of War’s power in Great Chang. The soldiers he brought could suppress bandits. If he could use them well, these soldiers could help him advance to the next level.
Therefore, this gain was not small.
“General Hua is a very good person.” Ah Yu had a good impression of General Hua. Back then, she used Murong Run’s name to invite him out. Later on, he did not pursue the matter. She felt that the other party was a kind person.
If they really pursued this matter, that would be troublesome.
Hua Rou and All Yu could be said to have hit it off at first sight. The two of them agreed to eat together after work tomorrow and bade farewell.
After returning to the Wang Family, everyone learned that Ah Yu had passed the assessment of the Astrology Divination Bureau and had even become the commander of the Astrology Divination Bureau. They all revealed “as expected” expressions and were not surprised at all.
It was as if everything that happened to Ah Yu was not surprising.
When she heard that she had become friends with Murong Run’s wife, Old Madam Wang said, “It’s up to you to make friends. I’ve heard of Hua Ron’s name. She’s not a bad child.”
In Old Madam Wang’s eyes, there was only one type of bad child: those she could not stand.
Hua Rou clearly did not belong to this category..
