Mind Reading: Who understands? The emperor finally has a princess.

Chapter 160 Being their father is quite unlucky

Zhang Qianhe has been silent since just now. He has not yet recovered from the little princess's thoughts.

His father didn't want him to take the imperial examination, but his mother always supported him.

His father was an alcoholic and became a jerk after drinking.

My mother said, "You need to study and go out to see the world. This is not your home. I believe you can do it."

His mother never let him worry about money. She worked for wealthy families, and his sister sometimes helped him, so he was able to study hard all the way to where he is today.

He lived up to his mother's expectations and passed the exam as he wished.

But when he heard about his mother's past tragedy, he felt deep down that his mother shouldn't be like this.

When he grew up, he knew that his mother was the daughter-in-law bought by his father. Later, he asked his mother about it, but she said she couldn't remember.

She only remembered that when she was a child, she had seen some very beautiful lanterns.

So, Zhang Qianhe studied very hard, and he wanted to take his mother to see a place with lanterns.

The emperor's words brought Zhang Qianhe back to his senses.

If it happened to him...

But the reality is, this did happen to him.

And these are your own father and mother.

Among those who do evil is his father.

Zhang Qianhe: "Your Majesty, if this happened to me, I would act according to the law, even if that person was my family. I know my parents raised me, but if my mother was abducted, then her family is the victim. Besides the traffickers, the buyers are the real culprits. I believe that there is no harm without buying and selling."

No one expected that Zhang Qianhe would be so aware.

Although he is young, he is able to transcend the constraints of his family and follow the law. He is a rare talent.

This little brother is so smart. His father is an alcoholic and can barely read. How did he raise such a smart little brother?

Long Xianxian couldn't help but become curious.

666: "Host, is it possible that he inherited it from his mother? After all, his mother is the daughter of a Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy."

Long Xianxian: "Oh, that Hanlin Academy scholar is a great scholar of our time."

[As expected, little brother, your mother's genes are strong. You take after her in your bones. It seems that old man Jun Jiuling has a successor!]

When Jun Jiuling heard this, he looked at Zhang Qianhe with a complicated expression.

He felt sorry for his daughter. Although he knew that the child was innocent, he could not really accept the child when he thought that he was also the bastard child of the person who hurt his daughter.

Right now, the important thing is that he goes to pick up his daughter.

The emperor nodded. "Indeed, you are not bound by your family of origin, and you consider this matter from the perspective of public welfare, civil administration, and laws. Your lifelong learning has paid off."

Zhang Qianhe stood back again.

At this moment, he no longer had any hope of being chosen by the emperor.

Although the laws of our dynasty did not state his father's sin, in his heart, people like him should not take part in the imperial examinations.

If there is no punishment for people like my father, how can we talk about justice?

Then everything he has learned in his life will be of no use if he cannot serve the country and the people.

The emperor then looked at the others: "Does anyone else have any ideas?"

At this time, the third man in the crowd stood up.

This person has a graceful appearance and is exactly what everyone imagines a talented person to be.

Everyone saw that this was not the most famous talent in Jiangnan.

"Your Majesty, I, Yun Qianhe, also have a topic to discuss. I have learned a lot from what you have just said, but I do not have the same experience, so I cannot fully comprehend it. However, I can relate to how my father educated his siblings, and I believe this historical gap is difficult to resolve in a short period of time."

"When we were young, my father taught us by example how to handle things and make a living. He had different educational methods for each child. Speaking of girls, for example, my sister was very good at math, so my father trained her to be an accountant. She learned well and even took over the family business. In our area, my sister is a famous businessman."

"My sister wanted to be able to help people, so she majored in medicine. Now she has opened a clinic and has helped many people."

"Students say that whether it's the gap between the rich and the poor or the issue of men and women, it's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. The reason they are oppressed and have to rely on the rich, or their husbands, is because they don't have enough money and the skills to survive."

"So, the students' perspective is that, in addition to the path to advancement provided by the imperial court, they should also not be limited to just one way of survival. Every profession has its own path to becoming the top scholar!"

After Yun Qianhe said this, the emperor nodded continuously.

He had heard of Yun Qianhe a long time ago. He was talented and a rising star in the literary world of Jiangnan.

Every time his works are published, everyone rushes to memorize them.

The emperor also read some of it and found it to be very talented.

The emperor said: "You are right. It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Only in this way can the common people truly live a good life."

Another man in the back row was looking at his brother with shining eyes.

Then he stood up and said, "I, Yun Qianyu, believe that what you said is correct. Only this law can truly put people first. The court can abolish slavery and switch to a hiring system. This way, everyone can hire servants, increase the human rights of the lower classes, and they can also enjoy equal human rights. This should be legislated."

"Brother, as you said, it's better to teach a man how to fish than to give him a fish. Mr. Bai has experience running a school. I think that establishing a school shouldn't just be for scholars. Many poor people are struggling to survive. We can work with people with special skills through local government offices to open small classes, giving them the opportunity to learn more survival skills. To increase everyone's enthusiasm, I suggest that the court could provide funds for the school to alleviate the pressure on the poor to learn."

"Then there's the issue of men and women. Ideological change doesn't happen overnight, and independent thinking for women is paramount. The educational model my family has is a good example, but it's difficult for those from poor backgrounds. They need to learn a skill and have the capital to make a living so they can have better choices. Furthermore, the imperial court needs to legislate that young women can't be married off casually. They should be allowed to marry when they reach adulthood. That way, they have more options for whether or not to get married, and whether or not to survive in the future!"

“That’s what the students think.”

The student suddenly stood up, which made the emperor stunned.

Are these brothers?

The key is that these two brothers are talented!

This brother has unique ideas and directly points out the crux of the problem.

This younger brother is very thoughtful. By listening to other people's opinions, he even figures out how to proceed.

The emperor really likes this kind of worker!

[These two are brothers, so amazing! One got third place and the other ninth. Their family must have brought them up so well!]

Long Xianxian was very interested in these two people, mainly because these two little brothers were so pleasing to the eye.

She is considered the best looking among the students.

After reading the scroll, Long Xianxian was stunned!

[I have to say, being their father is pretty unlucky. He doesn't know whether he should be happy or not!]
