Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

Jia Lian went to Lin Hai first, and told him why he didn't want to take the test of Shu Jishi. Lin Hai asked, "Yong Lian, are you thinking of these things yourself?"

"Yes. Uncle," Lian Er was a little embarrassed, "Lian Er didn't dare to lie. In fact, he didn't want to study anymore. After much deliberation, this is the only reason, maybe you can agree."

Lin Hai smiled, "Drink tea."

Jia Lian felt very honored to be able to drink the tea cooked by Aunt Lin's father, which was treating him as an adult.

"Yong Lian, it's okay if you don't want to take the exam for Shujishi. I didn't plan to let you take the exam for Jinshi. I just thought that you could study for three to five years and be able to barely win the Juren. Then, with your background in Rongguo Mansion , Find a seventh-rank outside release, and in 20 years, with a little effort, you can become a servant."

Jia Lian almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, he wanted to raise his head and yell, why is Lao Tzu so, so unlucky, and suffered all these years? !

Lin Hai was pleased by Jia Lian's expression, "Yong Lian, did you find out that people who know you will look at you differently when they are selected from you. Now that you have won the second-class Jinshi, how do people who know you think of you? Tell me, Is it worth all these years of hard work?"

Jia Lian's mood quickly calmed down, "Uncle, don't mention anything else, just because my father can't kick me casually, all these years of hard work are worth it." Just think back to last night, my father was holding back, but he couldn't just kick me casually. Jia Lian was really satisfied with beating, scolding and kicking himself a few times.

"Yong Lian, since you stepped into the officialdom, even with the protection of our elders, you are not much better than Lian Er who was in the Rongguo Mansion more than ten years ago. When will you be able to get in the officialdom?" , Those servants, ministers, etc., wait for you equally, like those who knew you before today, you can be regarded as not reading in vain, and only then can you be regarded as the support of younger brothers and sisters, and the support of children."

"Uncle, do you think what I got now will count and I have to start all over again?"

"That's right. Those books you read in the past were all for stepping stones. When you do things in the future, you will be like you are today. In your heart, you don't want to continue studying, but you must come up with a standable, just and awe-inspiring Reasons that cannot be refuted by others.”

Jia Lian stood up, bowed and said, "Thank you uncle for teaching."

"Sit down and drink tea. In the future, you will be an adult. If you have the thoughtful thoughts before, you will not be wasting the years of reading. In the future, work hard. Who said that you must be a good man to join the cabinet .”

Jia Lian stared at Lin Hai with wide eyes.

"Yong Lian, it won't take ten years for your father to enter the cabinet. He is a good scholar? He didn't even pass the exam for scholar. Hehe."

Jia Lian thought about it, isn't it, he made a fool again.He is still the son of Marquis Rong En.

"Uncle, hehe, hehe." Jia Lian was a little embarrassed.

Seeing Jia Lian's stupidity, Lin Hai smiled and said to him, "Yong Lian, your father is in the Ministry of War, which is different from yours in the Ministry of Household Affairs. The Minister of the Ministry of War has always come from a noble family and has never passed the military examination. The ministers of the household department entered the cabinet, but they all passed the imperial examination."

Silly boy, you believe what other people say first, and you don't even know if you are sold out in the officialdom.

When Jia Lian heard this, his complexion changed again, and after thinking about it, he said: "Uncle Lin, maybe others need a noble person to join the cabinet, but I don't necessarily. The world is full of nobles. As long as I have similar abilities, the sage will definitely use me as an honorable Jinshi to govern the world. Moreover, no matter who will become a sage in the future, those who want to be promoted will give priority to honored children. Only Those of us are looking forward to the world of the Tu family, and his surname will not be changed for generations to come. It is not some scholars who, in any dynasty, can obtain Jinshi examinations and become officials by virtue of their studies."

Lin Hai laughed gratifiedly after hearing Jia Lian's analysis, "Yong Lian, if you can think of this, you can understand the true meaning of officialdom. Good, good, good!"

Lin Hai's praise made Jia Lian blush.

"Uncle Lin, I just thought of these words."

"Haha, people are good from books. What can you do by reading? Open your mouth and shut your mouth. The saints in the Four Books and Five Classics said that there are many people who read stupidly. From now on, when you step into the officialdom to do things, you must remember what you just said. That is The general direction. As long as the sons of the nobles are up to the challenge, if a saint wants to employ people, he must first use the sons of the nobles. Also, don’t say you don’t want to study anymore, you still have to continue reading. You have to go to the Ministry of Households to measure the wealth of the world. Books such as "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" must be read well. And don't forget that it's time to read military books when your body is getting better sooner or later."

Jia Lian was puzzled.

"Yong Lian, the Jia family started their career by following the army. It doesn't matter whether you will have the opportunity to lead the army in the future. However, the ability to start a family has been lost. You will not be the same as the person who passed the imperial examination in the future. You will be at the same level. The Ministry of Household Affairs There are also quite a few officials here, and among those four-rank Langs who have accumulated years of experience, whoever mentions the position of the servant can take on the duties of the servant. Just relying on noble background is not enough."

Lin Hai got up, went to the desk to pick up a pen and paper, and Jia Lian hurried over to study the ink.

Lin Hai wrote a list of books, not many, only a few books, and after boasting, handed it to Jia Lian.

"Yong Lian, you have to read these books carefully, and you will still be questioned every ten days."

Jia Lian took a look and found that it said "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Sun Bin's Art of War", "Six Secret Teachings" and "Records of Military Training" were written on it.

"Yong Lian, your grandfather's study should have collected a lot of books on the art of war. You can choose one of these four books and read them thoroughly. Don't let the court holidays go to waste these few days. Find a few books in the shop. The old accountant has mastered the abacus. The household entry department will not be rejected because they can't work with their hands."

"Yes, follow my uncle's instruction. Yong Lian is going to learn abacus now, and he must also read "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and military books."

Jia Lian left Lin Hai to go to Zhang's house, and Zhang Yu also agreed with Jia Lian's choice.

Three days later, Jia Lian came to Lin Hai with a plan in mind.

"Uncle, I haven't gone out to practice for three days."

"Really? You're done." Seeing that Jia Lian was quite satisfied, Lin Hai said, "First, add from 1 to 100, and see how much it is? Hurry up." Lin Hai recalled this problem that tormented primary school students who were new to abacus with a wicked sense of humor.

Crackling, Jia Lian reported a number, 5051.

Lin Hai shook his head, "No, let's count."

Three times and three results, Jia Lian's forehead was sweating profusely.

"What's wrong, do you know?"

Jia Lian shook his head.

"Add from one to 10, write it down. Review it once. If you don't add up to ten numbers, write it down and review it again."

"5050." This is the result three times in a row.Jia Lian breathed a sigh of relief, it was finally right.

"Yong Lian, from now on in the household department, there will be a lot of counting time. If there is a little mistake, it is still good for the reviewer to see it and tell you. I am afraid that your mistake will not be discovered, and you will report it layer by layer. It's a basket, and if you do it a few more times, you won't have a future."

"Wouldn't the reviewer be held responsible?"

"Every time you change to a different person, after three or five times, will anyone still believe in what you calculated?"

Jia Lian was dumbfounded and froze there.

"Why?" Jia Lian opened his mouth, and the voice came out with difficulty.

"Are you stupid when you are in the household department? I can't tell that you are rushing to the minister, or even the minister. Hehe... The three brothers of the Zhang family each choose one, and then you go to the household department. You can figure it out and become a saint." Can’t see it? Or the people in the household department can’t see it?”

"Uncle taught me, what should I do?"

"Cold salad. After entering the household department, you can't make mistakes in the work assigned to you. Put away your status as the son of Rong Guohou. Just treat yourself as a second-ranked Jinshi with no background and no backing. Work hard for three years, and you will survive." .”

Jia Lian grinned.

"You and Uncle Jing both survived in this way. Others see me as a minister and a cabinet, and who has seen the Zen spirit behind it. You understand the reason that articles are beyond kung fu; in the court Doing things is the same."

Jia Lian led the training and continued to practice the abacus.

The new wave of Shuji scholars began to study in the Hanlin Academy for three years, and the Shuji scholars who had just left the academy, full of pride and ambition to join the cabinet, were assigned to various yamen of the imperial court or sent to various places.The Taishanghuang's spirit is much worse than that of three years ago, and he will not leave the Palace of Mercy any more.Imaka finally began to sharpen his sword, raising his sword against those who opposed him, despised him, and bullied/humiliated him in the past.The first to bear the brunt is the local emperor, the Zhen family, who has been entrenched in the south of the Yangtze River for many years.

The Zhen family also wanted to surrender and get close to Jinshang after they ascended the throne, and wanted to send their daughter to the palace several times through Zhen Taiguifei.At first, he wanted to send the concubine into Jinshang's inner palace, or the eldest prince as a side concubine, and then the second prince, but Jinshang blocked them all.In this year's draft, it happened that the daughter of the Zhen family had grown up, so she was sent to Beijing to participate in the draft.

This daughter of the Zhen family was raised and brought up carefully.Standing among the beautiful girls, without saying a word, she won the first place among all the women in the palace just by her demeanor and appearance.But now he sneered and asked the queen to give this daughter to King Zhongshun as a side concubine.

"Fansen, the Zhen family wants to erase the past by adopting a daughter. It's a dream." Most of the hardships and sins suffered in childhood today are from the mother and son of the Zhen family.He wanted the pampered mother and son to know that it was time to pay back.He wanted to let the emperor watch, but he couldn't save him.

Under Jinshang's signal, Yushitai began to impeach Zhen Yingjia.There are charges of snares, more practical things.Today, an imperial edict has been issued, ordering Zhen Yingjia to go to Beijing to defend herself.Going down at the same time as the sacred edict, there are also five hundred Imperial Forest Army.

Today, he told the son of Duke Shan, the leader of the army, "If this job is done well, you will still be the servant of the Ministry of War. If you can't do it well, you can just wait for Duke Shan's mansion to be copied."

He was so frightened that the prince of Shan Guogong repeatedly promised that even if he was so utterly stricken, he would handle this errand well.
