After the concubine took the script of the son-in-law

After Shen Ji visited all the people he had good friends with, he started reading books at home with peace of mind.

The atmosphere here is very harmonious, but the court is always in a state of intense and busy preparations for war - the preparations are naturally the war with Jiangnan.

Boss Zhao wanted the lord of Jiangnan to surrender automatically several times, but the lord of Jiangnan declared himself a vassal, but in fact he was always unwilling to do so, and actively prepared to resist the army of Song Dynasty.Boss Zhao asked Jiangnan King to come to Bianliang several times, but was rejected by the other party.

In April of this year, Li Mu went to Jiangnan as an envoy to persuade the Lord of Jiangnan to go to the pilgrimage to see Boss Zhao, but the Lord of Jiangnan said he was ill and was unwilling to come to Bianliang.This was the fourth time he refused to go to the pilgrimage, which gave Boss Zhao a good reason to send troops.

So after active preparations, this June, Boss Zhao ordered Cao Bing to lead the troops to Jingnan for control, and then took Pan Mei as the deputy to send troops to Jinling.

Before setting off, Boss Zhao deliberately recruited Cao Bing and Pan Mei, and took out a sword from the box to Cao Bing, telling him that he hated what Wang Quanbin did in Shu, and hoped that Cao Bing could restrain him. My subordinates, don't let the soldiers plunder the people and bully women to cause the soldiers of Shu to rebel. If there is any violation, except for Pan Mei, the following soldiers can be killed first and then acted. ①

In addition, Boss Zhao also made up his mind to let his son Dezhao go with him.Although he was not asked to lead the army, he was asked to serve as the deputy envoy of the army and was responsible for assisting in the management of the army's logistical affairs.Everyone could see that Boss Zhao was deliberately cultivating Zhao Dezhao, and by the way, gave him the opportunity to build up his meritorious prestige.

Zhao Dezhao didn't take care of the logistics, but Shen Yilu did, so he found an opportunity before setting off and went to ask Shen Yilu for advice.

Although Shen Yilu acted cautiously and didn't want to lean towards either the "Prince's Party" or the "Prince's Party", he didn't dare to hide it when it was related to the war between the Song Dynasty and Jiangnan, and passed on his experience to Zhao Dezhao.

In July, Cao Bing and others broke camp and sent troops to Jinling, and his son Cao Can followed. Shen Ji saw Cao Can off and came back, seeing his father Shen Yilu looking at the southern sky and sighing deeply.

"Father, why are you sighing?" Shen Ji asked.

"The court affairs have nothing to do with you."

"Oh." Shen Ji nodded, ready to go back to her room.

Shen Yilu was upset and called her to stop: "Hey, I said it has nothing to do with you, so why don't you ask me any more?"

"Father, when did you become so hypocritical?"

"What did the brat say? Go away!"

Shen Ji knew that he had something to say, so he didn't leave, and stayed here, asking: "I won't leave, I want to know why dad is sighing!"

Although Shen Yilu felt that Shen Ji was still young, he was already old after all, if he didn't teach her how to see the situation of the Qing Dynasty as soon as possible, he might be troubled in the future.So he brought Shen Ji to the study room, and said to her: "What do you think about the official family letting the prince go out with the army?"

"The eldest prince has already reached the crown, so he can take on the duties long ago, but the officials only named him the Jiedu envoy of Shannanxidao. Under the glory of King Qin and his younger brother Yongxing Jiedu envoy, it can be seen that the officials intend to cultivate the successor of King Qin. It's just that something has happened recently..."

Shen Yilu nodded: "At the beginning of the official establishment of the Great Song Dynasty, the princes were still young, and only the King of Qin could cultivate them. So in those years, the official family has been vigorously cultivating the King of Qin. There is even a saying that before the death of the Queen Mother Du, she persuaded the official family. Afterwards, it will be passed on to King Qin, and after a hundred years from King Qin, it will be passed on to Emperor Guangmei, who will be passed on to Dezhao after a hundred years..."

Shen Ji said: "Ideals are beautiful, but the temptation of power is a bloody blade."

"That's right, brother ends up younger brother, younger brother ends up son, is just a special product of troubled times. Once the world is stable and regimes don't change frequently, power will breed desires—the desire to make your children and grandchildren last forever. Shen Yilu sighed, "If the King of Qin has already bought a lot of people's hearts, there are also many party members in the court. The officials are only cultivating the prince at this time, and I am afraid that the next court will have to experience bloody fights."

Shen Ji understood: "Father is worried that I have guided the prince, and if King Qin succeeds in the future, he will hate father and liquidate father?"

"If I don't become the Pope's son, I'm going against the officials..."

"Did Dad ever want to bet?"

Shen Yilu glared at her: "I am loyal to the officials, and I will not do that stupid thing!"

"Isn't that enough? Dad's point of view to the prince is out of the overall situation, so that the Song Dynasty can smoothly pacify the south of the Yangtze River, not to become the prince's party. No matter who succeeds in the future, if he doesn't even have this bit of tolerance, then Dad simply resigned and took care of himself at home, so he doesn't have to work for the narrow-minded new king."

Shen Yilu choked for a moment, then thought again and felt that what she said was right, she saw the problem clearly.

"Okay, what we're talking about today has to be hidden, don't go outside and yell."

"I know."

-

All the officials thought that the General Assembly of Zhao had stopped this year's Qiu Wei exam due to the war, but it didn't, and the Qiu Wei exam was going on as usual.

Lu Mengzheng's registered permanent residence is in Luoyang, so he left in July and returned to Luoyang to prepare for the exam. Shen Ji also went to see him off and said to him: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, I believe you can do it!"

In the past few months, Lu Mengzheng has had the opportunity to ask Li Mu for advice, and he has benefited a lot. He has new ideas for many tricks and problems that he could not find before, so he is also very confident in himself.However, he is even more grateful to Shen Ji for recommending him to the officials and Li Mu. Right now, he has no fame or wealth, so he should bury the words of repayment in the bottom of his heart first, and talk about it when he is capable!

With the outbreak of the Jiangnan War, everyone's focus shifted to the war again.August has passed quietly, and the test results of the state capitals have come out.

Shen Ji asked someone to inquire about Luoyang's list of successful candidates. Before he could find out, he received a letter from Lu Mengzheng, saying that he would take his mother to Bianliang in September, and then prepare for the provincial and imperial examinations with peace of mind.

Shen Ji said to Li Yunyao: "Look, my lady, I just said that he is a man of real talent and learning. If he wants to come to the provincial examination next year, he will definitely be named on the gold list."

Li Yunyao looked at her with a half-smile: "You have confidence in him, when will it be your turn?"

Shen Ji: "..."

She has a good idea of ​​her level of knowledge: "I have only studied for a few years? It's not enough yet!"

"Really? Why do I always hear someone say that my articles have been praised by teachers and uncles?"

Shen Ji seems to be running around all day these years. In fact, she did not waste time studying. She will complete the homework that should be checked by Li Mu on time. ), Sanli ("Book of Rites", "Yili", "Zhouli"), Liangyi ("Zhouyi", "Yi Zhuan") and "Mao Shi" have all been studied, and they go to other people's private libraries every day to study There are many commentary books on the Four Books and Five Classics.

The difficulty of other people's study stems from poverty, lack of good teachers and learning conditions, but these problems are not a problem at all in front of Shen Ji. She has a father who studied Sanli, and Li Mu, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, as a teacher. There is Lu Duoxun, who is also a Hanlin bachelor, as his uncle, and he often goes to the private library of Dou's family for free.The Imperial College can come in and out at will, to listen to the doctor's lectures there.

Of course, she also has Li Yunyao, who has been studying for many years and has a lot of knowledge, to supervise and accompany her day and night, so her learning progress is naturally faster than ordinary people.So in just over two years, she has learned what other people can learn in five years. Every time Boss Zhao chats with her, she has some allusions at her fingertips. Even if Boss Zhao asks her where she came from, she can answer them fluently.

With her progress, I believe that after two or three years of further study, she will be able to give it a try.

However, Li Yunyao hoped that such a day would come sooner.In the past, she didn't care what method Shen Ji used to hide the truth and sneak into the examination room and officialdom, she only wanted to reach the dream world that she yearned for so much.Now that I have Shen Ji in my heart, I will look forward and backward, worried that her identity will be exposed, worried that she will be pressured by public opinion, worried that her life will be in danger...

She still hasn't given up on the task of the system, but she always wants Shen Ji to slow down, not to slow down the pace of study, but to take the scientific examination slowly.

"I still need my lady's guidance for a few more years!" Shen Ji said.

Li Yunyao smiled.

After Shen Ji finished his homework, he went to Xue Ji with the eighth volume and volume of "Qunshu Zhiyao" just printed by the Imperial College, and said, "Don't say that brothers didn't take care of you. This book has just been printed. I took a few copies and brought them to you non-stop. The teacher said, let us memorize the eighth volume, and he will ask questions when the time comes."

Xue Ji: "..."

I really thank you!

"My father got it a long time ago." Xue Ji said, "No, I read "Baopuzi" all day long, and was fooled by that alchemist, and I actually wanted to try the method of alchemy in it."

Shen Ji was curious: "What alchemist?"

"Li Babai, an alchemist who claimed to be [-] years old, came to the capital. Many people came to him to learn the way of longevity. After my father learned about it from Chen Congxin, the yamen of the Prince Qin's residence, although he didn't believe it, he hugged him all day long. Studying the new "Baopuzi"."

""Baopuzi" has so much knowledge, why does Uncle Xue only focus on alchemy? Have you persuaded him?"

"How can I persuade? To persuade him, he will only say 'a day without books, everything is barren'. Hey, why does this sound so familiar?"

"This statement comes from Chen Shou, the Confucian scholar who edited "Three Kingdoms." Shen Ji had a flash of inspiration, and another idea came up, "Hey, then Li Babai said that he is [-] years old, why don't we go?" have a look?"

"Let's go!" He didn't believe that he was [-] years old, the designation was a lie, and now he was going to expose his true colors!

"Wait a minute, I'll go home and bring out my wife. She reads a lot, so she must have found something!"

Xue Ji: "..."

Are you really showing off your wife all the time? !

The author says:

Shen Xiaoji: Uncle Xue, reading is for gaining knowledge, not for growing old.
