The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 948 Determined

In the past, most of the compounds of prominent families in Shou'an City were now requisitioned by the government. Among them, the Zhangjia Villa has become a place to house the disabled.

Zhang Pingqi sat on the edge of the corridor, listening to the howls of pain from time to time, and silently looked up at the sky.

"The sun is shining brightly, but the gloom and gloom in this space cannot penetrate, right?" Han Yongji came over holding a tray packed with medicine bottles.

"I thought you should be ready to leave Chu now." Zhang Pingqi glanced across the tray and put down his rolled up sleeves.

"I thought that since we have the same destination, we have a tacit understanding of walking together." Han Yongji smiled.

"Haha, I think you should send your thoughts to the main hall at this moment, instead of bickering with me here." Zhang Pingqi rolled his eyes indifferently, but his mood was still low.

"Just when she was about to enter the main hall, she was frightened away by the howling of pain inside. She even forgot about the precious medicine she was about to give away."

While talking, Jia Shang turned over from the corridor, looked at Zhang Pingqi on the left, and Han Yongji on the right, and suddenly laughed: "If you ask me, you two are useless... one just provides a place." , I can just take out the secret medicine, isn’t that fine? Why do we have to guard a yard full of wounded people!”

"I want you to take more care?!"

"What does it have to do with you?!"

Zhang Pingqi and Han Yongji spoke at the same time, and found that they had a tacit understanding with each other at this moment. They immediately looked at each other unconvinced, looked at each other for a moment, snorted coldly, and shook their heads to the side in tacit agreement again.

"Girl of the Han family, Mrs. Zhang, I remember yesterday morning, Shengfu Yin and the little girl in front of you... seemed to have sent you two letters of introduction, right? Why don't you leave in a hurry? But you missed the opportunity?"

"What about you? Aren't you determined to take back the power of the Jia family? Qianer, a scholar like you, rolled up your sleeves and went to the battlefield in person! Yesterday, your father came to see you personally and asked you to go home, right? What? You didn't go back Huh?" Zhang Pingqi couldn't stand Jia Shang's look of watching the fun, so he simply treated him the same way, so that she could have a taste of it.

"That is, your father's adopted eldest son failed to live up to his expectations. Not only was he involved with the little Jia family before, but he also lacked the courage and responsibility afterwards. He even missed the battle to defend the city! With a girl like you who is both wise and brave, your father can't live up to expectations. I have finally made up my mind to choose you over him. If you don't settle this matter now, how long will it take?" Han Yongji also responded and cooperated.

They thought they could use this to silence Jia Chang, but they didn't want Jia Chang to laugh heartily after hearing the words: "It is indeed true. My old man is willing to give me the opportunity to take the lead and let me use my achievements to convince the clan elders. Inheriting the lineage of the Great Jia family... Unfortunately, I don’t want to accept it this time!”

Jia Shang held up her hair and looked up at the sky, her eyes bursting with dazzling light: "I am ready to wait for the rest and then leave for Kyoto to study.

After getting a place in the Imperial College and studying for a period of time, I will start studying abroad. There is no chance of going overseas!

I want to see the humanities and natural customs around the world, and I want to personally see the people and their livelihood needs... When the time is right, I will continue my scientific examination! "

Jia Shang said the words "continue the scientific research" so loudly that Zhang Pingqi and Han Yongji were a little dizzy.

"You still want to take the scientific test?"

Han Yongji was shocked. According to what she knew about Jia Shang, the only daughter of the Jia family had a very independent personality. Although she read books about sages, what she thought in her mind was all about family disputes and fame and fortune.

"Jia Shang, didn't you say before that your talent was limited and that it was a fluke that you were admitted as a scholar, and you didn't plan to move on?" Zhang Pingqi knew Jia Shang better than Han Yongji.

As a former classmate, she knew very well how patient Jia Shang was in his studies.

"They all say that you should be impressed after not seeing each other for many days. If you haven't changed, why don't you allow me to change?" Jia Shang dusted off some wrinkled sleeves and looked at them with a smile. "What's more, I just figured out what I want." What is."

When she said these words, her eyes were shining: "Being in charge of a big clan in the borderland can only feed and clothe the whole clan, old and young, and leave your name on the family map and the local annals. But if Being able to enter the official career will affect more than just the people of a place or a clan. Even if I can't leave my name in history in the end, as long as this country still exists, the traces I left may be able to continue! This is not better than following that group of people. Are the clan elders jealous?"

"..." Zhang Pingqi and Han Yongji couldn't help but look at each other after hearing this.

Jia Shang's tone was not very exciting, but what she said made them feel excited.

However, when they thought about the boring and difficult scientific examinations and the obscure sentences in the Four Books and Five Classics, they immediately calmed down.

Forget it, they all say that the best one is the one that suits them best. They can't replicate Jia Shang's way!

"All you think about are good things. What if... I mean what if, if you fail the exam for a long time, you waste your good time on the road to the imperial examination. Not only will you lose your position as the head of the family, but you will also waste your good time... wouldn't it? Losing your wife and losing your troops?" Han Yongji's character determines that she can't do anything when she has other options.

"Even if I fail the exam, the things I have learned, the customs and customs I have experienced, and my understanding of everything in the world can still be retained in my mind. When I plan to stop, I will find a place to Or you can become a teacher, or you can calm down and write a masterpiece, or you can go back to the business, earn a share of your own family business, and open your own family tree... aren't these all choices?"

After experiencing the battle to defend the city, Jia Shang changed a lot.

She herself can also feel that her situation has broadened a lot.

She found that those things she valued before seemed no longer worth mentioning now when she thought about them.

She prefers this kind of life of leading people to advance and retreat together.

"You..." Zhang Pingqi and Han Yongji were inexplicably moved when they heard the last part.

But as soon as they finished speaking, they were startled by the sudden movement in the distance.

Even Jia Shang was a little confused.

"Let's take a look!" Han Yongji looked eagerly in the direction of the main hall and urged Zhang Pingqi to follow.

……

"What's going on?" As soon as they entered the courtyard outside the main hall, Han Yongji and the others saw a group of family members crying with joy, kneeling and kowtowing in the direction of the government office.

The doctor in charge of treating the wounded in the main hall looked up when he heard the sound and saw these three helpful girls. He couldn't help stroking his beard and said with a smile in his eyes: "The government has come up with a new strategy. I want to help people in the city." Build an academy, a library, and a comprehensive workshop.

This was built for those who were disabled due to the war! After they recover, they can choose suitable positions based on their hobbies, yearnings, and ambitions.

There, they can study quietly and learn knowledge. They can also copy ancient books, organize materials, add details, and study culture and history. They can also learn a skill and make a living in a comprehensive workshop... In short, as long as they are alive, they can continue to live. . "

At the end of the sentence, the doctor in charge couldn't help but sigh: "I really hope the library can be opened soon, so that I can see the elegance of those unique ancient books! Even if I can copy one by hand every day!"

Thinking of Jia Shang, Zhang Pingqi, and Han Yongji who are the sources of ancient books: "..."

Most of these unique ancient books should come from their families... right? !
