Amnesty's daily life
Chapter 124
Speaking of the ranking in this test, Nala Shuxian was also full of doubts.Seeing that Twelve mentioned it on her own initiative, she simply asked: "During the provincial examination, you said that you just guessed the test questions yourself. What about the test this time? It's really because your father is so stupid ?”
"Stupid? Second girl, you're not stupid!" Sister Ying was bouncing around the room trying to learn to speak, but when she didn't pay attention, she fell off her ass, and immediately burst into tears.
Nala Shuxian reluctantly stepped forward and embraced sister Ying into her arms, and coaxed her softly for a while, but when she looked up, she saw Twelve's face full of disgust, she immediately laughed and said: "Your sister is still young, besides, there is nothing you can do about it." Compared with you, why do you always despise her?"
"Forget it, she fell countless times, and she didn't fall badly. It's better than the second uncle Zheng." Even if you don't mention that Jia Zheng broke his leg twice in a row, just today , no one touched him at all, and he could fall headfirst and eat shit.Although the doctor also said that the problem is not serious, Twelve still feels that this person is probably much more stupid than his own stupid father.
Seeing that Sister Ying had stopped crying, and only looked at him bitterly with two tears in her eyes, Twelve finally laughed: "Looking at it this way, they are relatives, and they are all stupid." Even if the degree of stupidity is different, are they all stupid?
As soon as the words came out, Nala Shuxian immediately gave Twelve a warning look, and Twelve restrained himself a little, coughed dryly, and brought up the business again: "I know all the exam questions. But it’s impossible for me to really leak the question. If it’s really like a cheating case, the students are given the test questions, and the students then take the test questions to find contemporary famous scholars to answer, and then write them silently in the test room behind their backs... If it’s true If you do this, it’s called suicide.”
Twelve would not be so stupid, let alone let Jia She pass the examination so easily.In fact, Twelve just edited the exam questions over the years and gave them to Jia Amnesty and Brother Zhen to do.Those two guys went in without knowing it, but they didn't dare not to do it, but when it was really done, they would be sprayed for nothing.Rewrite after spraying, rewrite after rewriting, even if you have a rough prototype later, you can continue to modify.For Twelve, the process of tossing Jia She is far more enjoyable than seeing Jia She pass the test.
Therefore, from a certain point of view, Jia Amnesty really passed the provincial and general examinations on his own strength.It's just that compared to other candidates, he has more time to answer questions, rewrite, rewrite, repair and so on.
However, it can be proved by the same reason that Jia Amnesty is indeed stupid. If it were another person, even if he failed the exam and would be the first in the exam, at least he would not be counting backwards.
"Mother, the stupid daddy is like that after the bottom of the exam. You must not praise him again later. Let's talk about the second uncle Zheng. It might be really sad to put it on an ordinary person, but you look stupid. Dad, I reckon that he was a little shocked at first, I'm afraid that when he looks back, he thinks that the second uncle Zheng will be jealous of him, and he doesn't know how happy he is!" The appearance of success.
Nala Shuxian thought for a while, thinking that this was the truth, she nodded with a smile and said: "It's a good word, I'm afraid it's too late for you to say it now. With your father's temperament, you will pass the palace examination later. Maybe his tail is up in the air, even if I don't say anything, there are people around him who are talking nice things."
Twelve sighed, thinking, I'm afraid it's not just someone, but also the one on the head?But whoever praises Jia She for half a sentence, Jia She will be proud for half of his life.
"Well, I actually really sympathize with the second uncle Zheng." Twelve said gloatingly.
However, Jia Zheng was not the worst at all. No matter how absurd and unruly Jia She was in the first few years, at least for the past year and a half, he had personally seen Jia She's hard work and progress.Moreover, although Zhang's father and son are all literati, their tempers are extremely stinky, but Jia's mother doesn't care at all about her son being sprayed by his in-laws. It can be said that in the past year and a half, Jia Amnesty has lived a life that is worse than death. day of sympathy.On the other hand, Jia Zheng, Jia's mother has always favored him, and now that Jia She is in high school, she is already worried about whether Jia Zheng will be hurt because of this before congratulating Jia She.
This person is more infuriating than others!
……
At that time, because Jia She was very eager to see Wang Zisheng call him elder brother, he abandoned the carriage, took only two young servants, and hurried to Wang's house.He ordered someone to knock on the door of Wang's house, and Grand Master Xi rushed in in a coquettish manner.Fortunately, the concierge of the Wang family also recognized him, and while welcoming him in, he called for him to find the housekeeper.
"Where's your master? Tell him to come see me!"
Jia Amnesty never knew what politeness was, and because he had a bet in mind, he looked like a villain, just like Twelve Conjectures.But the housekeeper of the Wang family is more sensitive to people's facial expressions than the servants, seeing his behavior, and remembering that this is the day when the test will be released, he licked his face and went to Jia Amnesty to ask for the reward.Jia Amnesty would not be so stingy, then tore off the purse, threw it to Steward Wang, and said, "Tell your master to hurry up, I have to go to the palace to take the imperial examination in two days!"
This can be regarded as revealing the truth in a disguised form. Steward Wang asked people to serve good tea and snacks, and then called a articulate man to report the news later.After a while, someone outside the door greeted the master, and Jia She laughed loudly.
"Brother Wang!"
As Jia She's words fell, Wang Ziteng walked into the main hall with a dull face. He didn't deliberately show his face to Jia She, but he was born with a bad face, and because he was a child, he mixed with a group of soldiers and ruffians. The slightly serious appearance now adds a sense of calm and self-prestige.
Hearing Jia She call his younger brother suddenly, Wang Ziteng was slightly taken aback, then forced a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Xie."
There is a difference in age between the two brothers of the Wang family. Wang Zisheng is five years older than Jia She, but Wang Ziteng is actually several years younger than Jia She.Therefore, this big brother is also called.But because Wang Ziteng has never been in contact with Jia She, even if he met, it was mostly for banquets, at best it was just to save face. Fortunately, although Wang Ziteng has been in the frontier for the past two years, he also heard his father mention Jia She. Xie made progress, and this "big brother" was also called willingly.
However, when Jia She saw that it was Wang Ziteng who came, his face froze for a while, and he said after a while, "Brother Zi Teng, when did you return to the capital? Do you still want to go to the border?"
"I came back in the twelfth lunar month of last year, and now the Holy Majesty has called me to take over the infantry battalion in the capital. If there are no accidents in the future, I'm afraid I won't go to the frontier again." Wang Ziteng is not good at words, but there is no problem with asking and answering. Hearing about it, he asked casually, "I heard that Big Brother She has been working hard behind closed doors these days, it's not uncommon to never hear about it."
"That's right, don't talk about your family, I don't even know what happened in our family." Jia She felt overwhelmed for a while, for the past two years, he was really single-minded. When I think of the past eating, drinking and having fun, I always feel that it is a matter of my previous life.Fortunately, hard work pays off, even if Jia She knew that even if he took the exam ten more times, he would not be able to win the first prize, but now it is already very good.
"It's also a good thing to study hard. It's a good thing to influence people like us. Sooner or later, they will switch from martial arts to literature." , "Brother Xi is probably here to find my elder brother? It's a pity that he was ill two days ago."
"Ill?" Jia She asked curiously.
"That's right...well, it's okay to tell the truth, it's not sick, it's injured." Wang Ziteng looked horrified, and sighed helplessly, "I was beaten by my old man."
Although it is common for Lao Tzu to beat his son, it is usually aimed at children.Like Wang Zisheng, who has already passed his thirties, and his children are all grown up, it may not be appropriate to do it again.Of course, regardless of whether it is appropriate or not, since Mr. Wang has made a move, there is no room for others to criticize it. To put it bluntly, even if Wang Zisheng is beaten to death today, his fate can only be blamed.
"It's so pitiful." Jia She said with a sympathetic face, "Then please tell your elder brother, I will try to release the list today, and I will be on the list, and I will enter the palace to take the palace examination in two days. When he recovers later, Remember to settle the bet."
Wang Ziteng was a little dazed, he had no interest in the bet between his unreliable elder brother and Jia She, and he had never done stupid things by influencing these two guys.Can you try... palace test...
"Okay, that's all. I'll come to see your eldest brother after I pass the palace examination." Jia She didn't wait for Prince Teng to come to his senses, so he ran away with oil on his feet.In fact, if he had a choice, he would prefer to stay and see Wang Zisheng's misfortune, but obviously even if he stayed, he would not be able to enter the Wang family's back house, so it is better to run away as soon as possible, lest Wang Zisheng be beaten again and bear grudges on him.
That's right, being beaten again.
Just like Jia She and Wang Zisheng were once well-known playboys in the capital, they also have a very strict father.The only difference is that Jia She's father died a long time ago, while Wang Zisheng's father is still alive.Comparing his heart to his heart, Jia She thought, if his father is alive, Wang Zisheng has made progress, and he is still dawdling, then he will definitely be beaten to death by his father.In the same way, now that it's the other way around, Wang Zisheng will definitely not be able to please him.
It's so pathetic hahahaha!
Jia Amnesty laughed and rode away, leaving Wang Ziteng in a daze.
After barely recovering, Wang Ziteng immediately went back to the back house, found his old man, and said with disbelief on his face, "Old man, Master She of Rongguo Mansion said that he passed the test."
——This must be fake, fake, fake.
"Oh, it seems that what he said is right. Before, he was only a child with a heart, and he was unwilling to work hard. Now that he finally knows what happened, it's not too late." Mr. Wang stroked his gray beard and let out a long sigh, for himself and for his old friend who had passed away. Jia Daishan, "It's a pity that Duke Rong went early and didn't get to see this scene. Thinking about it this way, the Jia family is really a late bloomer. I remember that after Duke Ning, Jia Jing also won the Jinshi after losing his father."
After a pause, Mr. Wang suddenly raised his eyes to look at Wang Ziteng, and asked, "Is Jia Zhen from Ningfu also hit?"
"Ah? Is there another one?" Wang Ziteng was even more confused. In the past, he always believed that he was quite capable, especially on the battlefield, even when facing an enemy army twice as many as his own, he could command the battle calmly. But at this moment, he was completely dazed.
"Forget it, I'll find out when I look back. With the style of Ning Rong and the Second Mansion, there may be a banquet to celebrate tomorrow." After all, with many years of friendship, Mr. Wang has a thorough understanding of the temperament of the Jia family.
And the fact is true, by noon the next day, the post from the Ningrong Second Mansion arrived, but because the palace examination has not yet been finalized, the post only said that relatives and friends had a gathering, and did not expressly say to celebrate Jia She and Brother Zhen .Since he didn't say it clearly, Mr. Wang didn't go there in person, but only ordered Wang Ziteng to take his wife and bring gifts tomorrow.
On this day, Jia Amnesty also went to the Zhang family with his wife and children. In addition to personally delivering the post, he also sincerely thanked the old lady of the Zhang family and the old men for their strict demands on him these days.Another day came to the Ningrong Second Mansion to entertain relatives and friends, so I skipped it.
Soon it was the day of the imperial examination.
According to the usual practice, only policy questions are tested in the palace examination. Candidates enter at dawn, and after going through several etiquettes, policy questions are issued.Candidates write essays on the spot according to the policy questions. There is no limit to the length of the policy essays, and most of them are about [-] characters.The cursive script that Jia She liked before was absolutely unacceptable, and because of this, Jia She was forced to practice calligraphy again, emphasizing square, round, black, and large fonts.In a sense, the calligraphy of palace examination papers is often more important than the articles themselves.
After the writing of the policy text is completed, it will be handed over to the reading officer, who will read it in turn on the spot, and use various symbols to replace the grade.The one with the most "0" is the best, and at the same time, the best ten proposals will be presented to the saints, and the first three will be appointed and the second best will be No.1.
Ordinarily, under normal circumstances, even if Jia She can pass the palace examination smoothly, it is absolutely impossible to attract the attention of Emperor Changqing. personal.
But Jia Amnesty was an exception.
After announcing the No. [-] Scholar, No. [-], Tanhua, and Chuanlu of No. [-] in the Second Class, Emperor Changqing suddenly said loudly: "I heard that the first-class general Jia She, the eldest son of Duke Rong, also passed the test. where?"
Jia She shuddered so hard that he was almost scared to death.It's a pity that he has been tossed for a whole day. From early morning until now, no drip of water has been poured in. Before, he racked his brains to write a policy article, but now he has to stand tall and straight in the temple. The three people in the first class and the first in the second class were approved. I thought I could leave the palace and go back home soon, and I was thinking about what to eat at night, but...
"Here is the subject." Jia She walked out of the queue tremblingly, knelt down and saluted.He is better than others in that even if he has not yet obtained an official position, according to the title he inherited, he can still call himself a minister to Emperor Changqing.
"Well, it does have the honorable demeanor of the past." Emperor Changqing pondered.
Jia She, who was kneeling at the bottom, complained silently. He was kneeling on the ground, and Emperor Changqing was sitting on a high dragon chair, and there was a long distance between the old elders. Dad's demeanor back then?Besides, maybe in terms of appearance alone, he does have some similarities with Rong Guogong Jia Daishan. The problem is that Jia Daishan is a general, and he is also a fierce general who has galloped on the battlefield and killed countless enemies. Just from the aura of their bodies, the two of them are like one another.
"It's just that General Jia doesn't have the aura that Duke Rong had when he was a one-man man who was a man who was in charge of all men." Chang Qingdi said again.
Now, Jia Amnesty stopped complaining, what can he say?Although he was born in a general family, his martial arts training habits of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days when he was young, at best, he was on the same level as the servants of Rongguo Mansion, and someone who couldn't even beat the guards could be counted on to compare with him. On his old man?
Jia Amnesty couldn't completely ignore what Qing Emperor said. After thinking for a while, he said loudly: "Returning to the Holy One, it is precisely because I know that I have no hope of becoming a real general in this life that I made up my mind to study hard by hanging the beam and piercing the window." .”
——I'm useless, I'm useless, if I have the ability, what imperial examination should I take?Wouldn't it be enough to go directly to the battle to kill the enemy and inherit the father's career?
This explanation, although somewhat self-deprecating, won Emperor Changqing's heart.
Back then, Taizu led many generals to fight bloody battles to conquer the world of disciples, but today, most of the generals' families have disappeared, and the few generals who still hold military power make Emperor Changqing feel jealous.In his opinion, he neither wants those old ministers to perish in the long flow of time, nor does he want to hand over military power to them from generation to generation.The most perfect thing is that the military generals will change from military to civil, so that they can continue to serve the country and show him generosity and kindness.
But how can everything be as one wishes?Even if he is the emperor.
"General Jia's words are very good. Although it is a good thing for a son to inherit his father's career, after all, not everyone has the ability to lead an army. I am very happy for a talent like General Jia. I only hope that there will be more Many people, after learning that they cannot go to the battlefield, can change their ways to continue to make progress.”
"Jia's family used to be the duke of the two kingdoms, but now he is a double Jinshi. Congratulations!"
"I specially bestowed Jia Amnesty of Rongguo Mansion as Erjia No.2, and Jia Zhen of Ningguo Mansion as Erjia No.3. Both of them entered the Hanlin Academy as Shujishi. I only hope that you two can be like your ancestors. , be loyal to the country, even if you can't go to the battlefield, you can still be loyal to the country and plead for the people!"
Afterwards, Emperor Changqing said a lot of things, but Jia She was completely dumbfounded. At this moment, all he could think about was the noble scholars of the Imperial Academy... the noble scholars, the noble scholars, the noble scholars...
Oh my god! !
O earth! !
No matter how stupid Jia Amnesty was, he still knew what the Hanlin Academy was for, and even more understood what it meant to be a good scholar.
But the problem is that according to the usual practice, only the number one scholar will be awarded the position of editor of the Imperial Academy on the spot, and the other people who want to be appointed to the official position will have to go through the imperial examination again. Based on the results before and after the exam, the best one will be admitted to the Imperial Academy For Shujishi, this number usually does not exceed ten people, which is commonly known as "Dian Hanlin".As for the others, they are distributed to various ministries as directors or go to work in other places.
According to Jia Amnesty's thinking, since he already inherited the title, it is unlikely that he will be sent to other places to serve.Then it is very possible to keep him in the capital and be a part-time job in one of the six departments.Jia Amnesty even thought that if possible, he would rather go to the Ministry of Industry, and being a colleague with Jia Zheng would be the next best thing. Jia Zheng's envious and jealous look is still worth looking forward to.
However, the Imperial Academy...
Until he left the Palace of Preserving Harmony and left the palace, Jia Amnesty was still in a daze.On the contrary, Brother Zhen approached him like he was having fun, and said with bright eyes: "Uncle Xie, we are both in the second class! Oh my god, I thought we would be in the third class and the bottom of the list, but it turned out to be the second class Second and third!"
Brother Zhen is really happy. Thinking back then, he was only No. 30 in the second class, but he was unexpectedly promoted to No. [-] in the second class!Although it was still after Jia Amnesty, he was already very satisfied.After all, he is not stupid, he understands that with his true talent and learning, it is absolutely impossible to rank among the top two.Especially when he felt the envy of the fellow test takers around him, he couldn't wait to jump three feet high.
"Do you know the Imperial Academy?" Suddenly, Jia She asked.
"Ah? Of course I know. Uncle She, do you think I'm stupid?" Brother Zhen saw that his blue cloth mule cart was slowly approaching, so he hurriedly grabbed Jia She.Because the gate of the palace is a special place, although people like them could ride in horse-drawn carriages in the past, at the gate of the palace, they can only use the lowest-grade green cloth mule cart, and two people share one, "Let's go back to the house and talk about it." .”
Jia Amnesty got on the green cloth mule cart in a daze, with three souls gone and two and a half souls in his whole body, until the mule cart drove away from the imperial city area, changed to a carriage and rushed to Ningrong Street, he Still haven't slowed down.Brother Zhen saw that Jia She's situation was not good, so he didn't dare to get off the carriage directly at Ningguo Mansion, but accompanied Jia She to Rongguo Mansion.
At the gate of Rongguo Mansion, Brother Lian stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck in anticipation, while Twelve beside him kept stomping his feet. He didn't understand why he had to go to the gate in this cold weather. Come meet stupid dad.
"Come here!" Brother Lian said bouncingly.
Twelve looked up subconsciously, only to see his stupid father get off the carriage, and he was embraced suddenly.
"Cong'er! Your father and I have been appointed by the sage to be a good scholar of the Imperial Academy!" Jia Amnesty hugged Twelve tightly and cried bitterly.Brother Zhen, who got off the carriage at the side, was about to die of fright, and hurriedly said: "This is weeping with joy, weeping with joy! Uncle Amnesty is second in the second class, and I am third in the second class! Great joy! This is joy! !"
The saying of crying with joy is actually quite reliable, after all, even a well-educated person would not dare to say that he will definitely pass the first-class exam.The problem is, Jia Amnesty is too sad, completely sad than happy.As for Twelve, who was forced into his arms and almost lost his breath, after the initial panic, he was more gloating.
Should!
Call you a tsundere, make you a villain!
Is this the answer?The concubine of the Hanlin Academy!I can't beat you to death! !
"Stupid? Second girl, you're not stupid!" Sister Ying was bouncing around the room trying to learn to speak, but when she didn't pay attention, she fell off her ass, and immediately burst into tears.
Nala Shuxian reluctantly stepped forward and embraced sister Ying into her arms, and coaxed her softly for a while, but when she looked up, she saw Twelve's face full of disgust, she immediately laughed and said: "Your sister is still young, besides, there is nothing you can do about it."

Twelve would not be so stupid, let alone let Jia She pass the examination so easily.In fact, Twelve just edited the exam questions over the years and gave them to Jia Amnesty and Brother Zhen to do.Those two guys went in without knowing it, but they didn't dare not to do it, but when it was really done, they would be sprayed for nothing.Rewrite after spraying, rewrite after rewriting, even if you have a rough prototype later, you can continue to modify.For Twelve, the process of tossing Jia She is far more enjoyable than seeing Jia She pass the test.

"Mother, the stupid daddy is like that after the bottom of the exam. You must not praise him again later. Let's talk about the second uncle Zheng. It might be really sad to put it on an ordinary person, but you look stupid.

After barely recovering, Wang Ziteng immediately went back to the back house, found his old man, and said with disbelief on his face, "Old man, Master She of Rongguo Mansion said that he passed the test."
——This must be fake, fake, fake.
"Oh, it seems that what he said is right. Before, he was only a child with a heart, and he was unwilling to work hard. Now that he finally knows what happened, it's not too late." Mr. Wang stroked his gray beard and let out a long sigh, for himself and for his old friend who had passed away. Jia Daishan, "It's a pity that Duke Rong went early and didn't get to see this scene. Thinking about it this way, the Jia family is really a late bloomer. I remember that after Duke Ning, Jia Jing also won the Jinshi after losing his father."
After a pause, Mr. Wang suddenly raised his eyes to look at Wang Ziteng, and asked, "Is Jia Zhen from Ningfu also hit?"
"Ah? Is there another one?" Wang Ziteng was even more confused. In the past, he always believed that he was quite capable, especially on the battlefield, even when facing an enemy army twice as many as his own, he could command the battle calmly. But at this moment, he was completely dazed.
"Forget it, I'll find out when I look back. With the style of Ning Rong and the Second Mansion, there may be a banquet to celebrate tomorrow." After all, with many years of friendship, Mr. Wang has a thorough understanding of the temperament of the Jia family.
And the fact is true, by noon the next day, the post from the Ningrong Second Mansion arrived, but because the palace examination has not yet been finalized, the post only said that relatives and friends had a gathering, and did not expressly say to celebrate Jia She and Brother Zhen .Since he didn't say it clearly, Mr. Wang didn't go there in person, but only ordered Wang Ziteng to take his wife and bring gifts tomorrow.
On this day, Jia Amnesty also went to the Zhang family with his wife and children. In addition to personally delivering the post, he also sincerely thanked the old lady of the Zhang family and the old men for their strict demands on him these days.Another day came to the Ningrong Second Mansion to entertain relatives and friends, so I skipped it.
Soon it was the day of the imperial examination.
According to the usual practice, only policy questions are tested in the palace examination. Candidates enter at dawn, and after going through several etiquettes, policy questions are issued.Candidates write essays on the spot according to the policy questions. There is no limit to the length of the policy essays, and most of them are about [-] characters.The cursive script that Jia She liked before was absolutely unacceptable, and because of this, Jia She was forced to practice calligraphy again, emphasizing square, round, black, and large fonts.In a sense, the calligraphy of palace examination papers is often more important than the articles themselves.
After the writing of the policy text is completed, it will be handed over to the reading officer, who will read it in turn on the spot, and use various symbols to replace the grade.The one with the most "0" is the best, and at the same time, the best ten proposals will be presented to the saints, and the first three will be appointed and the second best will be No.1.
Ordinarily, under normal circumstances, even if Jia She can pass the palace examination smoothly, it is absolutely impossible to attract the attention of Emperor Changqing. personal.
But Jia Amnesty was an exception.
After announcing the No. [-] Scholar, No. [-], Tanhua, and Chuanlu of No. [-] in the Second Class, Emperor Changqing suddenly said loudly: "I heard that the first-class general Jia She, the eldest son of Duke Rong, also passed the test. where?"
Jia She shuddered so hard that he was almost scared to death.It's a pity that he has been tossed for a whole day. From early morning until now, no drip of water has been poured in. Before, he racked his brains to write a policy article, but now he has to stand tall and straight in the temple. The three people in the first class and the first in the second class were approved. I thought I could leave the palace and go back home soon, and I was thinking about what to eat at night, but...
"Here is the subject." Jia She walked out of the queue tremblingly, knelt down and saluted.He is better than others in that even if he has not yet obtained an official position, according to the title he inherited, he can still call himself a minister to Emperor Changqing.
"Well, it does have the honorable demeanor of the past." Emperor Changqing pondered.
Jia She, who was kneeling at the bottom, complained silently. He was kneeling on the ground, and Emperor Changqing was sitting on a high dragon chair, and there was a long distance between the old elders. Dad's demeanor back then?Besides, maybe in terms of appearance alone, he does have some similarities with Rong Guogong Jia Daishan. The problem is that Jia Daishan is a general, and he is also a fierce general who has galloped on the battlefield and killed countless enemies. Just from the aura of their bodies, the two of them are like one another.
"It's just that General Jia doesn't have the aura that Duke Rong had when he was a one-man man who was a man who was in charge of all men." Chang Qingdi said again.
Now, Jia Amnesty stopped complaining, what can he say?Although he was born in a general family, his martial arts training habits of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days when he was young, at best, he was on the same level as the servants of Rongguo Mansion, and someone who couldn't even beat the guards could be counted on to compare with him. On his old man?
Jia Amnesty couldn't completely ignore what Qing Emperor said. After thinking for a while, he said loudly: "Returning to the Holy One, it is precisely because I know that I have no hope of becoming a real general in this life that I made up my mind to study hard by hanging the beam and piercing the window." .”
——I'm useless, I'm useless, if I have the ability, what imperial examination should I take?Wouldn't it be enough to go directly to the battle to kill the enemy and inherit the father's career?
This explanation, although somewhat self-deprecating, won Emperor Changqing's heart.
Back then, Taizu led many generals to fight bloody battles to conquer the world of disciples, but today, most of the generals' families have disappeared, and the few generals who still hold military power make Emperor Changqing feel jealous.In his opinion, he neither wants those old ministers to perish in the long flow of time, nor does he want to hand over military power to them from generation to generation.The most perfect thing is that the military generals will change from military to civil, so that they can continue to serve the country and show him generosity and kindness.
But how can everything be as one wishes?Even if he is the emperor.
"General Jia's words are very good. Although it is a good thing for a son to inherit his father's career, after all, not everyone has the ability to lead an army. I am very happy for a talent like General Jia. I only hope that there will be more Many people, after learning that they cannot go to the battlefield, can change their ways to continue to make progress.”
"Jia's family used to be the duke of the two kingdoms, but now he is a double Jinshi. Congratulations!"
"I specially bestowed Jia Amnesty of Rongguo Mansion as Erjia No.2, and Jia Zhen of Ningguo Mansion as Erjia No.3. Both of them entered the Hanlin Academy as Shujishi. I only hope that you two can be like your ancestors. , be loyal to the country, even if you can't go to the battlefield, you can still be loyal to the country and plead for the people!"
Afterwards, Emperor Changqing said a lot of things, but Jia She was completely dumbfounded. At this moment, all he could think about was the noble scholars of the Imperial Academy... the noble scholars, the noble scholars, the noble scholars...
Oh my god! !
O earth! !
No matter how stupid Jia Amnesty was, he still knew what the Hanlin Academy was for, and even more understood what it meant to be a good scholar.
But the problem is that according to the usual practice, only the number one scholar will be awarded the position of editor of the Imperial Academy on the spot, and the other people who want to be appointed to the official position will have to go through the imperial examination again. Based on the results before and after the exam, the best one will be admitted to the Imperial Academy For Shujishi, this number usually does not exceed ten people, which is commonly known as "Dian Hanlin".As for the others, they are distributed to various ministries as directors or go to work in other places.
According to Jia Amnesty's thinking, since he already inherited the title, it is unlikely that he will be sent to other places to serve.Then it is very possible to keep him in the capital and be a part-time job in one of the six departments.Jia Amnesty even thought that if possible, he would rather go to the Ministry of Industry, and being a colleague with Jia Zheng would be the next best thing. Jia Zheng's envious and jealous look is still worth looking forward to.
However, the Imperial Academy...
Until he left the Palace of Preserving Harmony and left the palace, Jia Amnesty was still in a daze.On the contrary, Brother Zhen approached him like he was having fun, and said with bright eyes: "Uncle Xie, we are both in the second class! Oh my god, I thought we would be in the third class and the bottom of the list, but it turned out to be the second class Second and third!"
Brother Zhen is really happy. Thinking back then, he was only No. 30 in the second class, but he was unexpectedly promoted to No. [-] in the second class!Although it was still after Jia Amnesty, he was already very satisfied.After all, he is not stupid, he understands that with his true talent and learning, it is absolutely impossible to rank among the top two.Especially when he felt the envy of the fellow test takers around him, he couldn't wait to jump three feet high.
"Do you know the Imperial Academy?" Suddenly, Jia She asked.
"Ah? Of course I know. Uncle She, do you think I'm stupid?" Brother Zhen saw that his blue cloth mule cart was slowly approaching, so he hurriedly grabbed Jia She.Because the gate of the palace is a special place, although people like them could ride in horse-drawn carriages in the past, at the gate of the palace, they can only use the lowest-grade green cloth mule cart, and two people share one, "Let's go back to the house and talk about it." .”
Jia Amnesty got on the green cloth mule cart in a daze, with three souls gone and two and a half souls in his whole body, until the mule cart drove away from the imperial city area, changed to a carriage and rushed to Ningrong Street, he Still haven't slowed down.Brother Zhen saw that Jia She's situation was not good, so he didn't dare to get off the carriage directly at Ningguo Mansion, but accompanied Jia She to Rongguo Mansion.
At the gate of Rongguo Mansion, Brother Lian stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck in anticipation, while Twelve beside him kept stomping his feet. He didn't understand why he had to go to the gate in this cold weather. Come meet stupid dad.
"Come here!" Brother Lian said bouncingly.
Twelve looked up subconsciously, only to see his stupid father get off the carriage, and he was embraced suddenly.
"Cong'er! Your father and I have been appointed by the sage to be a good scholar of the Imperial Academy!" Jia Amnesty hugged Twelve tightly and cried bitterly.Brother Zhen, who got off the carriage at the side, was about to die of fright, and hurriedly said: "This is weeping with joy, weeping with joy! Uncle Amnesty is second in the second class, and I am third in the second class! Great joy! This is joy! !"
The saying of crying with joy is actually quite reliable, after all, even a well-educated person would not dare to say that he will definitely pass the first-class exam.The problem is, Jia Amnesty is too sad, completely sad than happy.As for Twelve, who was forced into his arms and almost lost his breath, after the initial panic, he was more gloating.
Should!
Call you a tsundere, make you a villain!
Is this the answer?The concubine of the Hanlin Academy!I can't beat you to death! !
