Chapter 5: The Future

5 future

Jia Enhou, who was half angry, was quite pleasant, he wanted to ask this upright brother for a long time, does this person really know filial piety? I don't know, what sages do you read? You know, what do you want to do when you rob the family business that your ancestors can only give to your brother? No matter how incapable he is, he can no longer spend his heart, at least he knows how to be polite and honest! It's a pity that in the previous life, Jia Zheng had the protection of the Shi family, and he never had the opportunity to spit on Jia Zheng's face.

But at the same time, Jia Zheng's provocation also gave Jia Yu a wake-up call. Jia Zheng is eleven years old, and it seems that he has been raised by Shi to be hypocritical in the future. is also a son-in-law, but he is a few years old and will not have a chance with his father's title, but he is afraid that Jia Zheng will be the first to be unwilling. In the previous life, although Jia Zheng did not get the position of the real head of the family, he got the actual power of the head of the family, and the reason for this is that in addition to Jia Taijun's favoritism, there is a more important reason - Jia Yu is incompetent, and when Jia Taijun is pressed down with filial piety, he is powerless to fight.

So, in order to prevent this from happening again, Jia Yu needs to become stronger. Regardless of whether he takes the imperial examination or earns military merits, he must have power and fame, and it must be before his father's death, otherwise whose hands will the things he earns will be, this is really hard to say, Jia Yu has no doubt about his wife Shi's eccentricity.

Thinking of this, Jia Yu raised his feet and went to the study, waved away the waiting subordinates, took rice paper and pen and ink from the bookcase, folded the paper in half, dipped the pen in ink, and wrote "Wu" while writing "Wen".

Take the literary road, and there is no way to avoid going to the imperial examination. Although his father Jia Daishan is a second-class minister and has a place in the country to be supervised, Jia Yu thinks of Jia Zheng in his previous life, and he is very unkindly happy: Jia Zheng's career in his previous life was not smooth, in addition to his disobedience to the law of etiquette, the fame obtained by his father's death is definitely not small. Serious officials who rely on their own examinations can look at this kind of person who has no ability to eat the food of his ancestors, but Jia Zheng is really a strange one, the servant is incompetent, the family has no way to be an official, and there is no achievement, the Ministry of Industry has been squatting for more than ten years, and in the end, he still relied on his daughter's nepotism to get to the top!

Enough fun, Jia Yu wrote the word shade on the side of the "text", and then crossed it out. As a last resort, he couldn't consider this path, and once he used it, it would be like the son of the concubine being recorded in the name of the main room - he had no confidence. Doesn't Mrs. like Jia Zheng to study well, such an honor, let's give myself that precious second brother!

If you don't want to rely on the shade, you can only take the test yourself. However, Jia Yu looked at his bookcase, Tang Yuyan, Song Jinshi, Yuan, Qinghua had everything, but there were no four books and five classics! In the previous life, I didn't like to read, and I only vaguely remembered the year of Jia Zhu's exam, which was because Jia Zhu's incident was really big back then, but now Jia Zhu has no shadow!

The maternal family of the grandmother who went to the imperial examination can help, but it can't help much, after all, the old lady is old, and the connection with the maternal family has begun to fade, and the Chen family itself has a descendant who needs to be promoted, so there is really little help for her grandson, who is married to an aunt and grandmother; If you marry the Zhang family, the Zhang family can help, but a manly husband has to fight for his own time, and he can't always rely on his daughter-in-law, right?

And also...... Jia Yu thought about Jia Zheng, who said a sage in his previous life but did diametrically opposite things, his brain throbbed and throbbed, he must have been in conflict with the "scholar" in both lives!

As if venting his anger, he wrote the word "reading" and tore off the half of the "text", and Jia Yu began to write about the advantages and disadvantages of his martial arts. This is much easier to write, first of all, the Jia family started with military merits, and the military network resources are relatively abundant, and his father is now a first-class Shenwei general and concurrently serves as the envoy of the Jingying Festival, it can be said that Jane is in the emperor's heart, and he should not be excluded from joining the army; In another two years or so, the border will be harassed by the Tartars, and he should be able to take advantage of this to make a military exploit; Moreover, the most important thing is that seven years later, the current prince will rebel and raise an army, and it was in that counterinsurgency that his father was injured in the rescue, although he was rewarded and restored to the position of the prince of the country, but he died in less than ten years, and the Jia family also went down.

There are also risks in taking the military road, the first one is the turmoil of seizing the heir, and this kind of thing is broken as soon as it is involved. Jia Yu thinks that he is not as brave as Jia Zheng of the Shi family, and he dares to get involved without anything, he is burdened with the inheritance of the family, and he has to be cautious every time.

But in the same way, in the matter of seizing the heir, he has an incomparably huge advantage - he knows who will sit in that seat in the future - not the abolished prince who came from the family but has a big rebellion, nor the eldest prince who ranks first, not the sixth prince who is deeply favored by his biological mother Concubine Zhen, but the third prince whose biological mother died early and was not favored, and it seems that anyone can go up and step on it.

The current third prince is six or seven years older than himself, even if he died in the hands of this person in his previous life, Jia Yu has to say that this person is clever, and he can endure it for more than ten years under the hands of today's saint and future emperor, and even on the grounds of provincial relatives, under the nose of the emperor who cares about the old ministers, he unknowingly hollowed out the family foundation of many noble families, and also won a reputation of benevolence and filial piety. This kind of means and forbearance, Jia Yu feels that if he says something disrespectful, he is a master who is ruthless to himself and even more ruthless to others.

Although the three princes will be the final winners, the other princes are not easy to mess with, especially the decline of the mother family of the three princes, even if he ascends the throne, it may be difficult to immediately shelter the people who support him, but the people who support him are very likely to be fiercely retaliated against by the princelings or other princes' parties, Jia Yu didn't want to become cannon fodder, and finally made a wedding dress for Jia Zheng! However, Jia Daishan is in a high position, and the Jingying Festival makes non-imperial henchmen unable to take responsibility, and it is inevitable that he will be co-opted and even threatened by all sides, so Jia Yu can only be a pure minister, regardless of whether he secretly supports the three princes, anyway, he can't openly support any prince! This is also Jia Daishan's only choice, one of them is the head of the Jia family and the other is the heir of the Jia family, in the eyes of outsiders, it represents the attitude of Rongguofu, and even represents the attitude of the entire family in a certain way. As long as one wrong step, the whole family will have to be buried together, and no one will be spared, this is the rule of society, cruel and true.

But no matter how you look at it, it's better for Jia Yu to earn military merits, after all, it's too late for him to start studying and taking scientific exams at his age. Historically, the average age of Jinshi has been around 35 years old, and in terms of the life expectancy of people at that time, they were already considered old, which is still based on the fact that they began to study since childhood. A young man like Lin Ruhai who fell for Tanhua is not only one in ten thousand, but also one in a thousand, if it weren't for Jia Daishan asking for marriage with the face of saving the driver, such a young man would not have been Jia Min's turn. When his grandfather called him back, he didn't give him a fancy pen, if he could really study for two years, he could be admitted to the imperial examination, and other scholars could hang themselves.

Jia Yu weighed it, thinking that even if Zhongjinshi couldn't survive for five years to help his father deal with the crisis, he immediately burned half of the "Wen" written on it; Look at half of the "martial arts", and look at the gold and stone antiques on the case, the generals are all old and rude, and they don't know elegance? Uncle, I have been playing antiques for forty or fifty years in my last life, and I don't believe that I can't earn a reputation for being able to write and martial arts to pave the way for his Hu'er!

Since he decided to join the army, Jia Yu could go and tell his father - it's strange! If he wants to go now, Jia Daishan can whip him. He hasn't gotten married yet, so he has to start a family and then start a business, after all, he is a real adult when he gets married, isn't it?
