dream of red mansion

"What about you, can't you hear me?"

The voice from earlier approached, vaguely angry.

Jia Qing frowned, he didn't care about fame, but it didn't mean he was willing to be stepped on by others.

Turning around, there are five or six people behind, centered on one of the young men.It wasn't him who spoke, but a young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks next to him.

"who are you?"

In fact, when Jia Qing turned around, the complexions of many people around him changed slightly.Although yesterday's banquet focused on the governor and that so-called "Tang Jieyuan", Jia Qing was ranked third in the rural examination and was young, so many people silently remembered his appearance.There are even more well-informed people who know Jia Qing's profound background, and they all sweat for the provocative person.

Some people are not easy to mess with!

Behind, seeing someone provoking his young master, Li Yan and the others quietly surrounded him, but Jia Qing caught his eye.

"Hehe, it turned out to be Jia Jingkui.

Zhang Tongnian, you have too many things to do.We are all in the same year, why bother about these.Originally, Jia Jingkui arrived first, so it was natural to hand over first, so why not wait a while? "

The leader of the group seemed to know Jia Qing too, and spoke out to make things right.

The so-called people who stretch out their hands and don't hit smiling faces are polite. Jia Qing would not be arrogant, so he replied: "I have seen Tang Jieyuan."

The few people around Tang Jieyuan are all lower-ranked people, and they all have one thing in common, that is, they are not from high backgrounds.

Moreover, it is difficult for a wealthy family to produce a noble son.Most of the imperial examinations are for ordinary Han children.Therefore, these people often have a mentality of hating the rich and contemptuous of the rich.

Jia Qing's ostentatious way of traveling earlier had already made those who had spent all their efforts to win the Juren were dissatisfied.Later, Jia Qing ignored the status of "boss" and posted the invitation first, and immediately found the reason.

That's why there is this guy who looks like a bum and "fights against injustice" for Tang Jieyuan.

At this time, seeing Tang Jieyuan lower his head first, although he was more dissatisfied, he couldn't say anything more, he just turned his head to one side.

No one is busy, so Jia Qing will naturally not be troublesome.These people are the ones whose hearts are higher than the sky and whose lives are thinner than paper.

Unlike Jia Qing, for Jia Qing, raising people and Jinshi is just an extra embellishment.For them, it is the only hope to enter the official career.Besides, next year's Spring Competition will be the real battlefield.

Because, Nanzhili, which is more powerful than Beizhili, has been added.These people, the chances of being named on the gold list are too slim!Even if one gets a top three by luck, one has to wait until there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Officials before there is a slight chance of being a foreign official.

Generally speaking, ordinary top three Jinshi can't be released to the county magistrate, usually a county magistrate or county lieutenant.I don't know how many years will be until I climb to a high position.

As for those who don't get the chance to be released, they will probably have to live in misery for a lifetime!There are as many poor and low-level officials in Beijing as a cow's hair.

For these people, it was really difficult for Jia Qing to pay more attention to them.On the contrary, this Tang Jieyuan is handsome and has a bright future.

Instead of saying a few polite words by the way, the housekeeper of Li's mansion brought out an example, and said:

"I invite Jia Juren to enter the mansion."

……

Like most civil servants' residences, Li's residence was not luxurious, but it was quiet and elegant.The layout is also similar to Fang Shou's mansion, both are two-entry mansions.

Inside Li Zhen's study.

Li Zhen looked at Jia Qing who was standing respectfully inside the room with a smile, and said, "You are Jia Jiawen Lin Lang bestowed by the Holy One, a famous young child prodigy in the country?"

"Students don't dare to pretend to be child prodigies, but they just got the honor of being granted an official status by the grace of the Holy Lord."

Li Zhen nodded and asked again, "How old are you?"

"Nearly twelve."

Li Zhen sighed: "You are so young! I have a deep impression of your policy theory, and I still remember it, but I don't know how you came up with those bold ideas at such a young age?

Can you tell me something? "

Jia Qing said: "The strategies and theories made by the students are nothing more than fantasies and speculations on paper, but they are not really opinions.

If the teacher is interested, the students are willing to elaborate on the students' ideas for the teacher. "

The teacher is a relatively strong relationship in the teacher-student relationship.Therefore, why every time the imperial examinations are held, the chief examiners of the provincial and provincial examinations are sent by the emperor's trustworthy ministers, just to give the ministers fame!

Therefore, it is no exaggeration for Jia Qing to call Li Zhen a teacher.And Li Zhen, under the premise of valuing it, will generally not hesitate to teach her.

"The teacher may know that the students are the children of a big family. My family has a lot of people, with complicated personnel, and various expenses are huge every year.

And my family's income is mainly two items.One is from the farm, including the family's sacrificial fields and ordinary farms.However, even though the fertile land owned by them is huge, the annual output is far from enough for the family's expenses.

Second, street shops.Although the elders in the Bifu disdain business affairs, it is undeniable that the economic benefits it produces far exceed that of the farm.

However, because the family members who do business for the Bifu are often not taken seriously, there are many people who steal, rape and play tricks, and even fill their own pockets.As a result, the industry is declining day by day, even to the point where it cannot make ends meet.

The students have been fascinated by it since they were young, and they know that my family has already overdrawn the blessings of their ancestors.Although it is still bright on the surface, it is already full of food on the inside.

See the big from the small.If a family is like this, how can a country not be like this?

A large amount of national wealth is in the hands of businessmen, but they have no corresponding status. They are in a precarious state all day long, and they are bound to look for protection everywhere, so that a lot of money and goods fall into private hands.

And the money that should have been in the national treasury flows into the hands of the government and the powerful, but it will not produce good governance, but the source of evil...

Therefore, the students boldly put forward the concept of 'widening agriculture and emphasizing business'.Let farmers pay less taxes, and merchants pay more taxes to gain status.And think that this law can not only increase the revenue of the treasury, but also create national wealth.

In time, the people of the entire Great Chu will be able to live and work in peace and contentment, and the people will be prosperous! "

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Since Li Zhen ranked Jia Qing as No.3 in the rural examination, it shows that he has a positive attitude towards some of Jia Qing's views.That's why Jia Qing spoke freely in front of him.

Although, in the end, Li Zhen, like Fang Shou, put forward many "fatal" flaws in his theory.

But it also made Jia Qing realize that in this official world, although it is impossible to implement the business standard, at least some people are willing to support "reform".It's just that this is obviously not something that he can do now, not even Li Zhen can do it.

After leaving Li's mansion, Jia Qing went to the mansion of Wang Xianjue, the deputy chief examiner, and Hu Zhou, the fellow examiner who recommended him, to meet them one by one.

This is etiquette and cannot be saved.

Coming out of Hu's mansion, Jia Qing originally wanted to visit Jia Yun's new house, and when he walked to the other courtyard, he remembered that he hadn't seen Shuang'er and Xian'er for several days, so he turned to the other courtyard.

After getting off the carriage, Li Yan and others went to tie the horses and rested.Jia Qing entered the yard alone.

Approaching the main room, I suddenly heard a melodious and long piano sound coming from the back yard.

Jia Qing searched for the sound and went into the garden, only to see a heroic Wu Xian'er in white, playing the piano alone in the pavilion.

Sometimes the breeze blows, bringing up two white ribbons on her body, and with the quiet and melodious sound of the piano in the garden, it looks like a picture scroll that is floating in the air.

Jia Qing stood there quietly, distracted, silently enjoying the wonderland that happened by chance.
