Jia Qiang's Ordinary Life

Jia Qiangan and Xu Pingchao quietly studied and composed with Mr. Sun. Although Mr. Sun has no real power, he is a well-known Confucianist and has served as the chief examiner for two exams. This network should not be underestimated.Sometimes, he took two students out to participate in some literary meetings, and introduced many people. Although Jia Qiang did not show his sharpness, his humility, politeness, sensitivity and eagerness to learn were still very good to those Qingliu literati. The praise, invisibly, has accumulated capital for him.

The Jia family also had many happy events. First, Jia Zhu won the Juren, and married Li Wan, the daughter of Li Shouzhong, the daughter of Li Shouzhong, the Imperial College Jijiu, and the husband and wife were harmonious.Then, Jia Lian also became engaged to Wang Xifeng, the daughter of the Wang family, and they got married a few years later.Seeing the growing prosperity of the family, the old lady was so happy from ear to ear every day, she wished that her granddaughter-in-law would give birth to a fat boy for herself immediately.

Jia's family has always been singing and dancing, and even if a knife is about to fall from the sky, they have to enjoy it first.There was an accident in the court, the crown prince didn't know why he offended the holy majesty, and actually let the holy majesty decree that he be demoted to a confinement of common people.Thinking of the decades of father-son friendship, the Holy Majesty regretted it again. He was also disheartened when he named the former prince as the Prince of Loyalty. He planned to abdicate the throne to the sixth prince to become the prince, and retired to the Chuigong Palace to become the Supreme Emperor.These are all official statements, what is going on, even a few of the emperor's close ministers are secretive and dare not talk too much.As a result, the court was shaken again. Something happened to Prince Loyalty, and Prince Cheng was about to ascend the throne. The personnel changes in the middle would take two months. Those who were close to the former prince and the late Prince Loyalty would be purged, demoted, and exiled. Prince Cheng's own team will fill in the remaining vacancies, and some active-minded people are already walking around to see if they can save the family in this political storm, and then go one step further.Fortunately, after the new emperor dealt with several stubborn families, he stopped, and even comforted a group of old officials, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and even claimed to praise the new emperor for his kindness.

This turmoil did not affect the Jia family. Although the Jia family was also a princeling at the beginning, no one in the Jia family held any prominent official positions. Their own titles have been reduced to the lowest ranks, so they did not get involved. In this battle for the heir apparent, he naturally saved himself.The people in Jia's mansion naturally celebrated with each other, and continued to play at home and eat when they needed to.Jia Lian also successfully married Ruhua Meijuan. At this time, Wang Xifeng has not shown the essence of a tigress. In everyone's eyes, she is more straightforward. As the daughter of the royal family, this is not a problem, but everyone's tolerance .Jia Lian is also a hungry ghost in nature. Seeing his beautiful wife as beautiful as flowers in spring, he is naturally happy in his heart. The two of them are as good as honey.

It seems that heaven cannot tolerate people being too complacent, and soon Rongguo Mansion has something to worry about.

When the new emperor came to the throne, he first opened Enke to select talents, giving the scholars one more chance.Jia Zhu has already won the Juren. According to his father-in-law, the articles he wrote can also win a Jinshi position in Enke, and his future has been smooth since then.Jia Zhu has been studying hard for so many years, isn't it just for this day!Unlike his mother, Mrs. Wang, he felt that he was the eldest grandson of the Rongguo Mansion and could inherit the Rongguo Mansion in the future. According to his idea, he should pass the imperial examination to win the title of wife and son. So, despite the comfort of the old man, Still dare not relax, study hard and never stop.When Enke started the exam, he entered the exam room with a nervous mood.The exam consisted of three consecutive exams, each of which lasted three days. Jia Zhu felt even more nervous when he saw several people in the same exam room fainted on the spot and gave up halfway.When he left the examination room in a daze, he almost forgot what he had written.After returning, he became seriously ill.After finally publishing the list, Jia Zhu won, even though he was late, he was also won!Jia Zhu was overjoyed that her illness would soon be cured.After waiting for the palace examination, Jia Zhu successfully passed the second-class Jinshi examination, and after another three years in the Imperial Academy, he will be able to be released as an official.

Who knows, the sky fails to fulfill people's wishes.Jia Zhu got wind evil in his body that day. Although he was happy to recover after passing the exam, he still left hidden dangers. When he was on night duty in the Imperial Academy in winter, he suffered from wind and cold again, and immediately healed the root cause of the disease that had not been cured. After getting up, he was bedridden after he came back, and taking any medicine was useless. Even Jia Zheng, who was talking nonsense all day long, went to the doctor in a hurry. stand up.

When Jia Zhu was ill, the holy decree was to select an unmarried girl of the appropriate age from an official family to enter the palace as a female history.There is no way. Last year, in order to show his benevolence, the new emperor released a group of older court ladies and maids in the palace. The court ladies are replenished every year. It is not so easy to train a lady officer. You still have to find a lady from a wealthy family. Therefore, Then there was this will.

As for Rongguo Mansion, Yuanchun is in the selection range.In fact, Yuan Chun is not too young. Wang Xifeng is only one year older than her, and she has already married in at this age. Yuan Chun has always been raised by the old lady. She hopes to marry her into a powerful family, so that she can help Jia Therefore, although there are many proposals, she has not let go so far, but now, it is already too late.Even if you enter the palace as a female official, in the final analysis, you are still a servant of the nobles in the palace. How can you be a young lady at home and marry someone to be the head of the house?When the age of release comes, they will all be old girls in their 20s. At that time, they will either be the first wife of a small family, or if they want to marry a high family, they can only fill in the house or marry a concubine.

No matter how much you regret it, you can't resist the decree. Yuan Chun successfully passed the selection, came back to spend two days with his family, and was about to enter the palace. After that, there was no special grace, and he couldn't even see his parents and family. He felt sad. Smile in front of people, so as not to be resented by people with a heart, and I don’t know how many tears she shed behind my back.The old lady wiped her tears, but she had another thought in her heart. Yuan Chun was well educated and gentle, and she was also gentle and beautiful. If she was spotted by the nobles in the palace, she would be able to rise to the top. It is not impossible. Thinking of this, So I decided to go back and think about it carefully, and then spend money to ask someone to take care of it carefully, which is also very promising.

These things didn't have much impact on Jia Qiang, but Mr. Sun was promoted again and became Minister of the Ministry of Rites. Although he was promoted from the third-rank servant to the second-rank, the Ministry of Rites has no real power in the first place, and being a minister is not as good as Walk in the cabinet to be a five-rank cabinet!Mr. Sun is not young anymore, he has already made a plan. After finishing his first term, he will ask to resign, take care of the elderly at home, do academic work, and teach students, so as to avoid such an awkward and awkward life in the court.
