Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 602 Plan ahead
Thinking of this, she fell into deep thought.

She originally thought that she was a small person, and even if she knew people like Qi Bokun, the emperor still had a few poor relatives, so her existence would not come into the eyes of others.She only needs to study her book in Taixue with peace of mind, and then be admitted to Jinshi in next year's Enke.

Her plan is to gradually show her talent in agriculture when writing articles in Taixue, and put forward more constructive opinions in the articles during the palace examination to gain the emperor's approval.With these foundations, and Qi Bokun and Guan Lehe working hard for her when arranging positions, she will be able to work as a sergeant under Guan Lehe's subordinates as a matter of course.

After becoming an official, she will work hard towards her goal as soon as possible, and strive to improve the agricultural production of Song Dynasty to a higher level in all aspects within three to five years.

This is a plan she made for herself.

But what happened today made her realize that things were not as simple as she imagined, or in other words, she miscalculated the relationship between Zhao Chang and the new emperor Zhao Huo.

But think about it, Zhao Chang's mother, Enbi, is just a concubine with a very low status. With such a fierce battle for the heir apparent, she must be able to save her son's life and raise him smoothly in the harem. There are people to rely on.This kind of reliance is not only her means, but also backup.It's just that even Qi Bokun didn't notice her relationship with the Queen Mother.In other words, people in the entire Song Dynasty didn't notice it.She may be a dark move by the empress dowager, and she played a certain role in the battle for succession.And what their mother and son got was the protection of the queen mother and the emperor.

Because after Zhao Chang returned to Beijing from Guangxi Province, he mentioned Du Jinning to Zhao Mingyue and the queen mother, so she was considered to be in the eyes of the new emperor and queen mother.If that's all, Du Jinning has nothing to worry about. "Under the Putian, is it the king's land; on the shore of the land, is it the king's minister." No matter whether she is stupid or excellent, she is a subject under Zhao He's rule, and she is under his control. He will not be unfavorable to her for no reason. .

But now, someone wants to be unfavorable to Zhao Chang and Zhao Mingyue, but today she even helped the siblings.And her relationship with Zhao Chang, although Zhao Chang deliberately downplayed it at the banquet today, but if someone really wants to find out, he only needs to go to Guangxi Province to know that Zhao Chang is very fond of her.

Judging from the methods those people used against Zhao Mingyue today, they may not be able to cause any disturbances, but they can disgust people.It is common sense for people to pick and choose soft ones.For example, Su Jun was upset with Qi Muyuan and didn't dare to carry him head-on, so he bullied Qi Muyuan with her in order to gain a delicate psychological balance.

Although it may be unfounded to think like this, but it has to be guarded against.And don't forget, she still has several people who are hostile to her.These people have more than failed to achieve success, so it is still very possible to make her fail in the imperial examination by using tricks.

She was never one to rely on others.Although she is now just a little girl from the countryside with no foundation, the only ones she can rely on are Qi Bokun and Guan Lehe, and her enemies, such as Pan Yiting, Qi Yuanshou's disciples and grandchildren, and Yan's family, their status is too high. Gao, from the fact that she entered the imperial school, it can be seen that these people's hands are relatively long, but she is not without her own way, and she can overcome all difficulties without relying on others and achieve her own goals.

Having made up her mind, she said to Yao Shuqi, "You ask Zhuang Yue to buy a shop, and we will open a bookstore here."

Yao Shuqi was very surprised: "Open a bookstore? Didn't we cooperate with the Liang family to open many stores?"

Du Jinning shook his head: "I will explain this to Liang Xiankuan. You ask Zhuang Yue to follow my instructions."

After thinking about it, she said: "Forget it, you ask Zhuang Yue to come over, and I will tell him personally."

Yao Shuqi hurried to inform Zhuang Yue.

The businesses in Guangxi Province are relatively mature, and under the management of Zhuang Yue's son Zhuang Zhengping, even if Du Jinning and the others went to Beijing, they are running well.And there are bookstores and teahouses cooperating with the Liang family in the capital. Du Jinning doesn't want to compete with his own business, so he doesn't plan to resume his old business in the capital.

In this way, Zhuang Yue and the shopkeeper he brought have been looking for projects in the capital to see if there is any business to do.Since Du Jinning hired a professional manager like Zhuang Yue, he naturally didn't care so much. During this time, Zhuang Yue led the shopkeeper to roam the streets and alleys of the capital, trying to find a profitable business.

Thinking that Zhuang Yue went out again today, it took half an hour after Du Jinning gave her orders before Zhuang Yue appeared in front of her.

"I plan to write a storybook." Du Jinning said.

Zhuang Yue and Yao Shuqi were startled, and looked at each other: "The script?"

"Master, why do you want to write a storybook?" Yao Shuqi asked.

He was very incomprehensible.

If Du Jinning is so poor that he can't even afford to support his family, buying Chinese books can be regarded as a livelihood that scholars can do.

But Du Jinning is not short of money at all now, and the story book has always been the work of a down-and-out scholar, and in the eyes of people with a little status, it is unworthy.Originally, Du Jinning was wearing a vest when writing scripts, but even so, Qi Siyu criticized him.Now that she has to deal with the general examination and palace examination, how can she have the time and energy to write this thing?
"I want to publicize my agricultural production philosophy in the script," Du Jinning said.

"Then why not write directly?" Yao Shuqi asked again.

Du Jinning shook his head: "The book must be written, but the conditions are not yet mature. The script is a foreshadowing."

Her age is here, and she has been studying for the past few years.Although she has been doing research on rice field planting, isn't the land that those old farmers have planted all their lives better than her?Her works can only be written after she has become a secretary in agriculture, has access to a large number of farmland planting materials and conducted practical research.Otherwise, others will say that she plagiarized, or simply say that she plagiarized other people's achievements.

Therefore, she wrote a story book first, which caused everyone's controversy, and then wrote a book when the conditions were ripe. This is the correct approach.

Yao Shuqi and Zhuang Yue have been with Du Jinning for so long, and when she said this, the two of them came to their senses, and felt that their young master was very thoughtful.

"It's just that writing a storybook will affect your exam? I mean reputation." Yao Shuqi asked.

Du Jinning shook his head: "King Jing and Lord Yang Yuntao both knew about my writing of the script, and it would be unavoidable if it had an impact. And the court did not stipulate that the person who wrote the script could not enter school and become an official. What."

Yao Shuqi felt relieved and said, "Master, if you think it is necessary, just do it, and we will follow your orders."
