Red Mansion, Second Master Lian is too despicable

Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Imperial College

Jia Lian asked his uncle to cook something delicious for him, and his cousin Sun really challenged him, but his uncle seemed to be losing his temper and had no intention of making a meal, and instead started a tea party.

The cousin of the Sun family also seems to be deliberately competing with his uncle. Both of them have been in the officialdom for many years. They are both beings who are accustomed to wielding power and being the top leaders. They have that kind of majesty that is not angry but majestic.

The two held tea and drank water here, and looked up at each other from time to time, making the servants who poured the water tremble; even Niu Jiadai, who was not very smart, could see that there was a problem between the two, Became to sit upright.

However, people who are in the eye of the storm are often the safest and least able to feel the storm. Only Jia Lian feels comfortable when no one cares about him.

From time to time, he ate snacks, drank tea, and whispered to Niu Jiadai, just like the poor student sitting in the back row when the leader came to listen to the class in school.

Anyway, the teacher can't do anything to me, so naturally I can do whatever I like.

Jia Lian's arrogance did not arouse the disapproval of his relatives, but it made Niu Jiadi very uncomfortable.

"Second brother, please be honest. If it doesn't work, let's go. It doesn't seem like it's a good time to visit relatives today!"

Mr. Niu whispered to Jia Lian.

Even though Jia Lian was not restrained at all, he was not ignorant. The only person in the room that Jia Lian dared to tease was Niu Jiadai. Lao Niu had been ignoring him just now, which made him very boring.This time Niu Jiadai actually challenged him, and Jia Lian immediately became energetic.

"Let's go? Why go? Wait a little longer, I still have things to do!"

It wasn't that Jia Lian couldn't tell that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the room, but that he didn't want to go home.

No matter how bad the situation here is, the Jia family can still cause trouble. It's been almost a day, and everyone knows about his story, and he doesn't know what big commotion he will make when he returns home.

It's better to hide and relax at my uncle's house.

Jia Lian has long had an emotional preference in his heart. Although the Jia family is his own home, it doesn't look like a home at all. On the contrary, it is much more comfortable to stay in the Zhang family than in the Jia family.

Seeing Jia Lian like this, Niu Jiadai had no choice but to rush him.

"Then you can do it. Once it's done, let's leave quickly. Don't you see that this is inconvenient?"

But Jia Lian said with a shy face.

"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, my uncle will take care of it for me sooner or later! Let them talk about the business first, I'm not in a hurry."

Jia Lian didn't hold back when he said this, causing the two competing adults to pick up the teacups, glance at Jia Lian, and at the same time signal the kid to fart quickly.

Your uncle and cousin won't be bothered by your trivial matters.

Jia Lian didn't see this look, but instead pulled Niu Jia to wait.

"But then again, how did you get into the Imperial College, you fat guy? I don't know anything else, but will your family's quota be wasted on you?"

Big families have a large population, especially for children from poor families like Jia Lian and Niu Jiadai. The limited resources must be used on useful people, and it will definitely be a waste to put them on Niu Jiadai.

Yes, he is a child from a poor family, that’s right!

Don't think that ordinary people are called poor people. They don't even have a family, so they don't deserve to be called poor people. Those who have houses and property are called common people, and those who have no house or land are called hooligans.It cannot be called a door.

You must know that this sect is not an ordinary sect, but a sect of a powerful family. Only those whose ancestors have been high-ranking officials are qualified to be called sect. In the past few generations, no high-ranking officials have declined, so the sect is destitute, so it is called a poor sect.It means a wealthy family that is no longer lively.Therefore, Jia Lian was considered a completely poor boy. The biggest official in the family was Jia Zheng, and there was no one who could seriously go to court.

Even if Niu Jia waits for half a year, the Zhenguo Palace is also going downhill.Fortunately, his father held the title of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and was indifferent. He was always required to attend the big court meetings, and occasionally qualified for the small court meetings.

This is considered to be the best in the country, but it is nothing compared with those who can hold a firm foothold in the small court meeting, let alone those who discuss affairs in the study room, let alone those who monopolize the government affairs of several local provinces. It's gone.

Therefore, when Niu Jia expressed his opinions in this room, he would first look at the people sitting in the room. Seeing that the two people sitting there seemed not to mind the murmurings between him and Jia Lian, he emboldened himself.

"Who told you that I went to the Imperial Academy?"

This answer surprised Jia Lian.

"Oh? Could it be that you went to Taixue!"

If Niu Jiadi really studied at Taixue, then Jia Lian would really take a high look at this guy.

In terms of administrative level, Taixue is under the jurisdiction of the Imperial College, but the fact that Taixue is as famous as the Imperial College, and a subordinate institution can be as famous as the leading department, shows its quality.

Niu Jiadi shook his head.

"Do the supervisors have to come from Guozixue, Taixue, Four Schools, and Guangwen School?"

This answer made Jia Lian even more interested.

Guozixue is an institution directly under the jurisdiction of Guozijian. In addition, there are Taixue, Simenxue, Guangwenkan and other colleges.

Among them, those who were in charge of the Imperial Academy were those who were in charge of the third rank or above, the descendants of the Duke of the country, and the great-grandsons of the second rank or above.Direct descendants of the Duke's family like Jia Lian and Niu Jiadai have a certain quota to go to this kind of institution.

At the same time, the doctorate of the Imperial College is a fifth-rank official, which is not a small official position.Although it is not as good as the deputy ministerial level in Qingbei, it is considered the deputy department and bureau level.

Jia Lian began to think that although Niu Jiadai did not have a place in the Imperial Academy at home, he might have taken someone's place from a relative's family to go to the Taixue.

After all, those who are the Taixue masters of the fifth rank and above, the descendants of county princes, and the great-grandsons of the third rank, Lao Niu is also a big family, and it is really possible that there are quotas for relatives who are not in Beijing.

This is very similar to modern times. Children like the Ling family and the Bo family can enter Qingbei and other well-known universities without taking exams!
But he didn't expect that Niu Jiada not only denied this point, but also denied that he was not a student of the four major colleges of science under the Imperial Academy, Guozixue, Taixue, Four Schools, and Guangwenkan.

Then how did he get the identity of a supervisor? I wonder if he has a chance.

In fact, Jia Lian has already made preparations to go to Guangwen Hall and Four Gates Academy to explore connections. Although it is easy for people who are also children of big families to think that he is born a bastard once the academy reports.

Guang Wen Guan teaches the children of meritorious men, as well as some lucky ones who are recommended and illegitimate children of big families. The four schools teach the students of seven grades or above, the sons of Hou Bozi and the sons of common people.

But Jia Lian didn't care about this, he only cared about his ability to sit still.As long as you can make up for your shortcomings, other reputations don't matter to you.

Besides, how was my life different from that of a concubine?

And Niu Jiadai not only occupied the quota of relatives, but also was a supervisor of the Imperial College.This made Jia Lian curious.
