The Shi Family's highest ranking official is Magistrate Shi of Linhe Prefecture.
However, Magistrate Shi's son is engaged to the sixth granddaughter of Lord Yao, the former Minister of Rites, and the marriage will take place this year.
Speaking of the engagement with the Yao Family, Magistrate Shi is actually quite distressed.
When the engagement with the Yao Family was arranged, Lord Yao was still the Minister of Rites, but right after the engagement, Lord Yao stepped down from his position as Minister of Rites.
Emperor Jingyuan knew his rule was not going well, because of matters like the Duke Wei family's influence, the Northwest drought, and the battle against the Rong people, Ouyang Hong would surely be discontent with him.
In order to win over Ouyang Hong and the scholars, he removed Lord Yao, installing Ouyang Hong's son as the Minister of Rites.
