After listening, Jifeng clapped his hands together: "I think it's okay! Anyway, I'm idle now, and my family doesn't have to worry about making a living for the time being. Maybe my eldest brother can be admitted as a scholar or a scholar in one go. It would be even more amazing if he can be admitted as a tribute scholar." Now, I can still serve as an official in the court! In the future, we brothers will also be able to take care of each other in the court."
The most important thing is that the eldest brother can protect him again.
Ji Fengshou's blood boiled when he thought of this.
There is no hope for him to work hard in this life, but he can urge others!
Ji Fengyi was shaken a little when he thought that he went out to find a private school and wanted to continue teaching to support his family, but was ridiculed for his delusion of teaching in the capital while he was not even a scholar.
I just think that at my age, I have to do it all over again...
"Uncle has not put down his studies for so many years. I think it is better to give it a try. But on the other hand, it is an experience after all. If someone in the family passes the exam in the future, the uncle can also have experience to guide him. If the uncle and the eldest brother and the others really pass the exam, Yeah, it would be a nice talk if you tell me."
Ji Changying's words of persuasion made Ji Fengyi's heart beat violently.
I calculated in my mind the amount of money that would be spent on the first scientific examination after the new year, and calculated my family's financial resources. I also felt confident: "Then I will try this time?"
Just give it a try!
Everyone in the family was in favor.
Ji Fengyi, who was originally responsible for supervising his son and nephew's homework, once he made a decision, he actually worked harder than young people like Ji Changchuan and others.
They wake up at three o'clock every day and go to bed at five o'clock every day. The study room is brightly lit all night, and Ji Mingxuan and Ji Minghao also work harder.
Ji Changchuan turned out to be the most leisurely among them because he had to follow the emperor's grandson to receive the tutor's instruction in the East Palace.
The next day after the emperor's explanation, Ji Changchuan got on the carriage prepared by Manager Gou and rushed to the East Palace early in the morning.
When he arrived at the East Palace, he was taken directly to the Imperial Palace where he was conferred an official title.
When he went there, either early or late, there were already three or five people sitting inside. When they saw him coming, they all looked at him with unkind eyes.
The boy who followed Ji Changchuan took a sharp breath: "Master, these are the emperor's grandchildren."
——
Ji Changying was at home sorting out the plans and development of Tudou in the future, but she didn't expect Mrs. Zhenguo Gong to come to her door with Zheng Xiangyi.
Since coming to Beijing, this was the first time that a noble lady came to visit. Mrs. Hu had to pay attention and brought Grandma Hua to greet her personally. Mrs. Zhou was also forced to come out to receive the guests.
"I'm getting older but I don't get scared. A bigger cat actually scared me so much that I had to stay in bed some time ago. Now that I'm feeling better, I brought the girls at home over to say thank you."
Mrs. Zheng grabbed Zheng Xiangyi's hand and explained with a smile.
Mrs. Hu waved her hands in flattery: "It's a trivial matter. My Ah Ying has always been enthusiastic, but it's just a little effort. I didn't expect that I would bother you to come to the door in person."
Mrs. Zhou nodded: "Yes, my daughter has always been warm-hearted and will save her no matter who she is. What's more, this girl is so beautiful, it wouldn't be a pity if she was bitten."
Mrs. Hu's face froze. Her siblings really didn't want to pick up the pot.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zheng didn't show any anger on her face. Instead, she looked at Mrs. Zhou happily: "Princess, you have really good taste! My granddaughter is really good-looking!"
Mrs. Hu: "..."
Ji Changying was a little surprised to see Mrs. Zheng when she came in, but she quickly greeted her and said, "I've met Mrs. Zheng."
Even though she was performing the ceremony as a junior, Mrs. Zheng didn't dare to show off. Before Ji Changying had finished, she quickly stood up and grabbed her hand: "Oh! The princess is also as beautiful as a flower! Mother Wang , quickly take out the gift I prepared for the princess!"
Zheng Xiangyi pursed her lips and smiled at Ji Changying, and eagerly took a sandalwood incense box from Mother Wang's hand and handed it to Ji Changying.
She opened it with doubtful eyes and took a look. It turned out to be a set of pure gold and turquoise peacock and phoenix heads.
Ji Changying closed it and pushed it back: "I can't take such a valuable thing!"
Zheng Xiangyi glanced at her angrily: "You saved my life! Is it possible that I'm not as valuable as these dead things? Not to mention a mere appearance, even if I give you half of the town government palace, it won't be worth it." There are so many, who makes me precious!"
Mrs. Zheng nodded proudly: "That's right! Even if you give the princess half of the town's palace, it's okay!"
As she spoke, she handed a color to the maid, and several maids held the box and placed it on the table.
Mrs. Zheng explained with a smile on her face: "I don't know what you all like, but I heard that several brothers in the family are planning to end their lives next year. My master is a rough man, and the books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones at home are all useless." If you don’t need it, I’ll bring it all to you.”
The boxes were all opened, and various valuable inkstones, brush washers, rice papers, and some unique books were placed there.
Madam Hu and Madam Zhou were stunned.
This is really worth it!
Mrs. Zheng kept her intention of getting along with the people from the Princess Mansion and gave no chance of rejection.
Zheng Xiangyi also interrupted with a smile, wanting to play in Ji Changying's yard.
Mrs. Hu had no choice but to let the two of them go play by themselves, leaving Mrs. Zheng here to chat.
Zheng Xiangyi came here today to make up for the regret of not being able to thank Ji Changying properly last time. Not long after the two sat down, she spoke expectantly: "I didn't thank you properly last time. How about I invite you to Qingfen Building for dinner later?" ?”
Ji Changying had been here for so long and had never eaten out much. After thinking about it for a while, she agreed.
Zheng Xiangyi happily ordered Yingtao to go ahead and speak to Mrs. Zheng, Mrs. Hu and the others, and the two of them left the house and headed towards Qingfen Tower.
Qingfen Tower is located in Tianshui Lane, which is not far from here. It takes only a quarter of an hour for the two of them to take a carriage.
The entire Qingfen Building was buzzing with people. The environment inside was simple, but the business was unexpectedly booming.
Ji Changying was following Zheng Xiangyi to the reserved private room on the second floor when she heard a harsh sound.
"What princess, she is obviously a disaster star! The Ji family this person married is the same Ji Bohui who openly contradicted His Majesty's remonstrance in the court last year! All nine tribes were exiled. Didn't you watch that day? Wei Tuo from Huangjue Temple The flower withered instantly just because her blood was present.”
"Shhh--please keep your voice down! But your statement is too far-fetched. Although the disaster star appears in the world and there are strange phenomena, it can't be related to the newly found princess, right?"
"Have you forgotten what Master Huiji said?"
"Everyone remembers this. What do you think this has to do with the princess?"
"If you think about it carefully, was the master looking in one direction all the time, with compassion in his eyes? Which direction was he looking in?"
"Northeast...?"
"That's right! Think about it, was this princess found from the northeast? The place where the Ji family was exiled is Liangzhou!"
