A young man dressed in gorgeous brocade robe, with an elegant demeanor, has a face as white as jade, eyes like stars, and a faint smile, but his words can be heard with the gleam of swords and sabers.

"We would like to ask Madam Hou what do you think of Baichuan Academy setting up a crash course for the imperial examinations?"

"The breadth of learning lies in perseverance, and perseverance lies in determination. The breadth and depth of knowledge comes from perseverance, and the ability to study perseverance comes from having a pure purpose and self-control. In the eyes of Mrs. Hou, the ambition of the imperial examination crash course is pure and firm."

This question is full of traps.

As the saying goes, to establish oneself one must first establish one's learning, and to establish one's learning one must first establish reading.

If Gu Nanxi denied the purity of the aspirations of the Imperial Examination Cramming Class, then this class would lose its foundation. Without a foundation for study, how could it survive?

If Gu Nanxi believes that the imperial examination crash course has pure and firm ambitions, then what ambitions do they refer to?

The officials who were watching could see the twists and turns here and began to discuss it in low voices.

"Whose son is this? Why is he speaking so sharply?"

"It was Chen Suxiu from the Imperial Academy. During the last academy assessment, the Imperial Academy lost to Baichuan Academy. At that time, he vowed to restore the glory for the Imperial Academy."

"Young people are really formidable. This is only the first question. I wonder how the Marquis's wife will answer."

Although ordinary people could not tell the ulterior motive, they could sense the young man's malicious intent and could not help but worry about the wife of Marquis Yongchang.

Gu Nanxi had long known that the issue of the imperial examination class would cause a huge storm, but she did not expect that a group of young men would be the first to come forward.

All the means used cannot be used on these high-spirited young people.

So Gu Nanxi said frankly: "You must know that when I was young, Qin Mingzhi promised to be the best in the world."

"There are many kinds of ambitions. To establish one's mind for the world, to establish one's destiny for the people, to inherit the lost knowledge of the ancient sages, and to bring peace to the world for all eternity are ambitions."

"I will wear my golden armor after a hundred battles in the yellow sand, and I will not return until I have conquered Loulan. This is also my ambition."

"Next year on this day I will be in the blue sky, yet I will laugh at the busy students in the world. It is also a kind of ambition."

Gu Nanxi looked around at the group of students, and then looked at the students from Baichuan Academy.

All the students of the Imperial College are handsome and fair-skinned, and one can tell at first glance that they grew up in a wealthy family.

The students of Baichuan Academy come from many different backgrounds. There are sons of wealthy families, sons of commoners, and even students from poor families. Their skin colors range from fair, to yellowish, to dark.

Gu Nanxi: "Some people are born with things that others cannot even dream of in their lifetimes. But that's no reason for us to tear down others' ladders!"

"The imperial examination is the mechanism for the imperial court to select talents. You have famous teachers teaching you, and you have even been exposed to various documents since childhood. So what are you afraid of? You have a head start of more than ten years compared to these ordinary students. Do you think that your advantage of so many years is not as good as a few months of intensive training?"

Speak out!

Gu Nanxi really said it out!

The officials didn't expect that Gu Nanxi would be so direct in her pursuit of fame. But after thinking about it carefully, they were not surprised. She was just that kind of person.

What made them even more frightened was that Gu Nanxi almost pointed at the group of students and scolded them.

The imperial examination system was originally created to prevent wealthy families from monopolizing official positions.

But no matter how hard the common students study, the teachers they get cannot compare with those of the aristocratic families.

So even though it has been launched for so many years, if you count the Jinshi on the list, most of them are from aristocratic families, and the other small part is monopolized by major academies.

There are very few students from poor families who come from truly ordinary families.

Gu Nanxi wants to break this shackles, can she succeed?

Reason tells them that this is too difficult.

How can a gap of more than ten years be overcome by just a few months of assault techniques?

But this is Gu Nanxi!

Hasn’t she created enough miracles?

In the crowd, Lord Zhu accidentally pulled out a long beard of his own.

"Sir, the wife of Marquis Yongchang is braver than you." The middle-aged man sighed.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the deep-rooted and stubborn illness of the Great Zhou.

But as bold as Lord Zhu was, even if he found something he didn't like, he only dared to touch it secretly, and didn't dare to dig it directly with a hoe like Gu Nanxi did.

Master Zhu was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "When people get old, they don't have the same drive as young people. Xiao Nanxi's angle is really tricky."

The middle-aged man also nodded: "Yes, by doing this, she directly pulled the current emperor onto her warship. At the same time, she also left a way out and did not cut off the way for others."

If the assault class is really so effective, then the clan leaders will just follow suit, which will simply make the single-plank bridge of the imperial examination even more involuted.

But even if the situation gets worse, capable civilian students can still find a way to succeed.

Gu Nanxi's words moved the common people so much that their eyes welled up with tears. They clapped their hands until their palms turned red, but they still couldn't express their gratitude.

Although families with some means are willing to use all their family strength to support a scholar, hoping that this scholar can succeed and lead the entire family to change their destiny.

But in fact, everyone knew how slim this hope was. If a scholar could emerge from a village, it was a blessing from the god of literature.

For most people, after learning some basic characters, it is already a good opportunity to find a job as an accountant.

Now the wife of the Marquis of Yongchang has made the matter clear, meaning that the nobles have strong family support and have a head start of ten years. She will use this crash course to lend a helping hand to the common students, and everyone will see the real results in the examination hall.

If you want to learn a craft, you have to be an apprentice for three years for free. How can we not appreciate the generosity of the wife of Yongchang Marquis?

Chen Suxiu wanted to argue a few more times and criticize Gu Nanxi on the issue of establishing himself.

But the deafening applause had in fact slapped him in the face.

Having won the hearts of the people to this extent, can't it be said that you have made up your mind and destiny?

Chen Suxiu sighed slightly, waited for this wave to pass, and then asked his second question.

"Madam Hou's answer just now was sincere and honest, and I admire it. Now, on behalf of all the students of the Imperial College, I would like to ask Madam Hou a second question. The Great Zhou has been in contact with the Northern Territory for many years. What do you think of this relationship?"

For a moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on Gu Nanxi.

The Northern Territory, that is the unspeakable heartache for the Great Zhou.

Gu Nanxi is a banner of the war faction in the whole Great Zhou Dynasty. How will she answer? What is her attitude towards the future of the Northern Territory?

Ajinai, who was sitting on the playground, couldn't help but look up, waiting for Gu Nanxi's answer.

Gu Nanxi originally wanted to dodge this question, but it is not easy to be the leader of the pro-war faction. The current Great Zhou is dominated by the pro-peace faction from top to bottom.

But Gu Nanxi caught a glimpse of Gu Shisan and others hiding in the crowd, and he couldn't bring himself to say anything about practicing Tai Chi.

If this is glossed over, how will the soldiers fighting bloody battles on the border feel?

Although Gu Nanxi likes to play badly, he still has the necessary responsibilities.

"I once read a story in a book, and now I will tell you about it. The name of the story is Chenghua Liting!"
