Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 618 Trouble
I don't know if he was washing the three banquets, or if he performed well at the full moon banquet later.

The cheap father may have been reminded by his grandmother that Jia Rong was able to participate in some important affairs of Ningfu.

Of course, it is just an observation, and there is no right to make suggestions.

What he didn't expect was that the first family event he participated in was the entry of Jia Yuanchun from the Rong Mansion into the palace.

It's a big deal, and even the grandmother who is not very energetic is also involved.

When Jia Rong first heard about it, she was also a little surprised.

It has been less than half a year since I came to the World of Red Mansions. As the heir of the Ning Mansion, I naturally know a lot of information.

For example, as a noble son, he naturally listened to the rules of the emperor's selection of concubines, and learned many details of them.

There is a fixed time and number of years for the emperor to choose a concubine, just like the imperial examination.

The imperial examination is used by the court to select talents, while the draft is done by the royal family to balance certain forces in the court.

There may have been infatuated emperors in history, but it is definitely not today.

He has been in office for more than ten years now, and he is no longer the age to be emotional.

Besides, being able to sit on the dragon chair today is not only due to luck, but also has its own scheming and means.

Even with the Taishanghuang restraining him, he has never been able to control the court, and even in the process of fighting with the Taishanghuang, he has always been at a disadvantage.

But after more than ten years of careful management, the power in his hands today is not just for fun.

Every draft is an opportunity to expand the power at hand, how can it be wasted casually?

The Jia family belongs to the lineage of the founder of the country, belonging to the lineage of the Supreme Emperor.

Would sending Jia Yuanchun into the palace at this time be regarded as a traitor?
In the era of feudal ethics, once the emperor's anger was aroused, not only the individual, but the whole family would suffer bad luck.

It's a matter of herself, it's impossible for Jia Rong not to react at all.

If this is the case, the grandmother and the cheap Laozi Jia Zhen who were present must have wondered if he was dissatisfied with the family?
"Old lady, now is not the right year for the draft!"

"Although Cousin Yuanchun was born in the Rong Mansion, it is impossible to break the rules of the palace and enter the palace through other channels, right?"

Then they have to be directly killed by those concubines who entered the draft. Since ancient times, aliens have not lived long.

Jia Zhen was dissatisfied and said: "You can see the problem, don't you know it in the mansion over there?"

Mrs. Zhao gave Jia Zhen a sideways look, and explained slowly: "The old matriarch of the West Mansion has opened up the door of Concubine Zhen, and plans to let Yuan Chun enter the palace as a female official first!"

"When the time is right, send Yuan Chun to the Queen's Palace!"

Jia Rong looked sideways, thinking, isn't this embarrassing the queen?

The Supreme Emperor restrains the present, and the concubines naturally have no way of dealing with the Empress.

Especially Concubine Zhen, the Zhen family behind her is a tyrant in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are two adult princes to rely on, so she is very arrogant and domineering.

It is heard that this Concubine Zhen has often caused troubles for the queen.

But because the queen is a junior, and her own abilities and skills are somewhat lacking, she has suffered a lot.

At this time, sending Jia Yuanchun to the Queen's Palace through Concubine Zhen, what is it for?
"Don't worry, there is the meaning of the emperor!"

Mrs. Zhao saw through Jia Rong's doubts at a glance, and directly explained the reason.

Jia Rong was stunned, but she was not optimistic about such an operation.

Within two days, the confidant of the cheap old man Jia Zhen informed him, asking him not to go out the next day, but to go to the West Mansion together to talk about the matter.

Jia Rong responded, feeling a little weird in her heart. Is Rong Mansion a little anxious?

Ignoring Jia Qiang's curious eyes, she read with interest the miscellaneous books she took out from the library in the house.

At this time, ethnology has become Jia Rong's stronghold.

The only master, Jia Dairu, is not even here because of his son's serious illness.

Earlier, Jia Zhen also ordered Jia Rong to visit on behalf of the patriarch.

Jia Dairu's son was obviously completely hollowed out, and there was basically no possibility of surviving.

Of course, if it is properly adjusted, it can still live for a few more years.

Jia Rong was also kind-hearted, and she couldn't see the tragedy of a white-haired person giving a black-haired person. In addition to the few ginseng presented by Jia Zhen, she also added a bottle of homemade warming and tonic medicinal wine.

Obviously, Jia Dairu listened to Jia Rong's advice and made his seriously ill son take the small bottle of warming medicinal wine.

Up to now, the guy is still angry, and he probably won't be able to hang up in a short time.

But because of this, his only son has been recuperating in the hospital bed, how could Jia Dairu care about ethnology?
At this time, Jia Rong jumped out.

Through the relationship of the grandmother's natal family, two reliable old scholars were invited from the outside to be teachers, and they specially taught the ethnology students the basics of science and technology.

At the same time, he comforted the nervous Jia Dairu, saying that he was still responsible for the ethnology, and the annual support would not be less.

Of course, with the advantages and benefits, it is natural to open the door for Jia Rong to make some moves in ethnology.

In this way, the management of ethnology has completely fallen into the hands of Jia Rong.

He didn't make any major changes, just divided the ethnology students into two groups.

Children before the age of ten go to the small class, and those after the age of ten go to the big class.

It happened to be in charge of two newly hired old scholars, and the small class teaching was much easier for both teachers and students.

Cough cough, the reason why it is so simple and rude is precisely because there are no learning geniuses in ethnology yet.

There may be such an existence, but don't expect to be able to take the lead in a short time.

After careful discussion with the two old scholars, Jia Rong confirmed her previous guess: the primary imperial examination mainly tests memory, and the degree of recitation of the Four Books and Five Classics.

As for the understanding of scriptures and meanings, how could a young scholar know so much?
It is also for this reason that the arrival of the two old scholars did not change the teaching mode of ethnology, which still focused on character recognition and book copying.

Those two old scholars really didn't know what to say to Jia Rong's ability to squeeze money from ethnic students.

But they didn't mean to stop them, and felt that copying books was quite effective in memorizing articles.

Besides, in a place like Jia Clan School, if they see students who are humble, courteous and studious, they will feel strange and incomprehensible.

As for ethnology, can there be a few children or even scholars?

The two old scholars didn't dare to guarantee it, but they knew each other. If they copied the books carefully for three or two years, it would not be a big problem for them to pass the exam.

As for the higher-level scholar juren and the like, their own abilities are limited, and it is called bragging if they say it.

Naturally, Jia Rong will not force others to make things difficult for him. Anyway, his requirements are not high, and I believe that results will appear within a few years...
