Chief of Food?
A Chief of Food of the Standard Seventh Rank?!
The Commandery Princess Attendant has no official rank. Yet the Chief of Food is a legitimate court official, and a Standard Seventh Rank official in the Prince Mansion. Compared to a seventh-rank County Magistrate, it's higher, not lower.
If entering government service through the Imperial Examination, a new Advanced Scholar would need at least five to seven years of training to achieve such a position. Not to mention the talent and hardships required on the path of studying.
By normal means, Ma Yaosong could never reach such an official position in this lifetime. Now, with just a word from the Commandery Princess, Ma Yaosong can fill this vacancy and become an official Prince Mansion Official. What a glorious and prestigious event!
