Li Wenyuan hurriedly spoke, "I'm not asking you to beg them, I just hope that when your husband achieves a high rank, if he is sent to a local position, I am willing to follow Su Gongzi as a Secretary or Supervisor."
After Li Wenyuan finished speaking, he looked at Yu Xiaolian with an expectant expression.
Being a Secretary or Supervisor, both are positions under a County Magistrate, considered Eighth-rank. Li Wenyuan's request is not high; he, a respectable Advanced Scholar, should at least start as a Seventh-rank official. An Eighth-rank position is indeed a grievance for him.
Yu Xiaolian remembered that after Su Jingchen achieved a high rank, his first position was a seventh-rank Residence Attendant. Soon after, he was promoted to a sixth-rank Imperial Doctor, then to a fourth-rank Doctor of Universal Discussion, a third-rank Guanglu Doctor, and finally to a second-rank Jinzi Guanglu Doctor.
Yes, that was the life of Su Jingchen.
