Chapter 44: The True Purpose
The phoenix egg Jia Baoyu fell ill in time, which attracted all the attention of the old lady at once, and Jia Cong naturally retreated.
At this time, Jia Yun and several ethnic students who participated in the children's life test had already come out with the results of the exam, and they all passed.
When the news came out, the entire Jia clan in the capital was boiling.
This is a child born from the imperial examination of the Jia family in the capital since Jia Jingzhong, the previous head of the Ning Mansion, became a jinshi, and it cannot be overstated.
Jia Cong couldn't help but shake his head and sigh when he saw the elated appearance of the clansmen.
Gee......
It's just four children, and in the eyes of those academies and the families of civil officials, it is estimated that they are not farts.
But in the eyes of the Jia clan in the capital at this time, it is the first time in many years that there are only four children, so don't be too happy.
It can only be said that the teaching level of Jia clan studies is too inferior, and Mr. Jia Dairu is not qualified at all.
If you think about it carefully, you will find that in fact, Jia clan studies, from the beginning of its establishment to the present, have no achievements at all.
Even if the head of the Ning Guofu family in the previous generation respected the eldest master and was admitted to the Jinshi all the way, it had nothing to do with clan studies.
At the beginning, Master Jing's studies were all the guidance of famous teachers who were invited with a lot of money, and they had nothing to do with clan studies and Jia Dairu.
Similar to Master Jing's situation, it is Jia Zhu who has already gone to Rongguo Mansion, who has been admitted to Xiucai and has nothing to do with clan studies, and is a tutor who is invited.
It can be said that Jia clan studies are useless!
Mr. Jia Dairu is an expert at harming students!
What made Jia Cong speechless was that this time the clan science produced four children in one go, and the reputation of Jia clan was greatly boosted for a while.
Of course, it was the noble circle of the four kings and eight princes who was shaken, and the civil official group simply ignored it.
What made Jia Cong even more speechless was that Mr. Jia Dairu, who had done nothing, actually got the greatest benefit, and was praised by a cadre of honors, and even intended to send the children of the side branches of the family to the Jia clan to study.
Looking at Jia Dairu's complacent face and calmly accepting it, Jia Cong really had the urge to beat people.
When the news of Jia Yun and others taking the middle school entrance examination came, Jia Dairu was in class, and his old face was all stunned at that time, so quickly he forgot about it?
Of course, Jia Cong didn't care very much, anyway, the place where Jia Yun and the other younger brothers really studied was in the bookstore separated from the Huiyou bookstore.
As long as the clan science is not rotten to the bone, even the little bit will be affected, Jia Cong and his younger brother will not care too much.
I heard that the old lady and the second wife in Rongguo's mansion were a little unhappy, but at this time, their minds were all on the sick phoenix egg Jia Baoyu, and they didn't care about anything else.
At this time, Jia Yun and the other little brother who were born in Tongsheng did not need to worry about the suppression from Rongguo Mansion.
At this time, Jia Yun and other children were definitely the focus of attention of the Jia family, and Jia Zhen, the head of the Ning Guofu family, who was the patriarch, even held a banquet to celebrate, which was regarded as crossing the bright road in the clan.
At this time, if the old lady and the second wife wanted to do something, the older generation of those clans would not agree.
Don't think that the Rongguo Mansion is powerful, you can really do whatever you want.
The Dream of Red Mansions World is the standard ancient Chinese feudal world, which is a fairly traditional clan society, and the prestige of the clan elders is not weak.
Not to mention, the old lady and the second wife are still women, and women's right to speak in terms of clan is really average, so they don't dare to make too much trouble in this situation.
Jia Yun and the other four new children were also very competitive, saying that they would make persistent efforts and continue to participate in the future government and hospital examinations, hoping to get the fame of showing their talents.
The elders of the clan, as well as the patriarch of the contemporary Jia clan, Jia Zhen, were quite cheerful, and they all said that although Jia Yun and the others worked hard to study for the exam, everything else would be borne by the clan.
At this point, Jia Yun and the other four new children can study and prepare for the exam with peace of mind, and they don't need to pay attention to those who don't have it.
It's just that the next practice of Jia Yun and other new children, some of them slapped Mr. Jia Dairu, who has been quite beautiful recently.
They did not return to the study of ethnicity, but placed the place of study in the bookstore next to the club, and directly made the bookstore public.
Most of the clansmen didn't understand it very well, and even felt that Jia Yun and others were a little disrespectful to Mr. Jia Dairu, and they couldn't help but behave too arrogantly.
Of course, there are also smart people who see some clues, but they don't say it.
The existence of the new Tongsheng has helped Jia Cong attract enough attention, and even overshadowed some situations caused by the Three Kingdoms fever, at least in the capital Jia clan.
It can be said that Jia Cong's luck is really quite good.
Not only has the risk of writing his own book almost dissipated, but it is estimated that the government's restrictions on him will be relaxed a lot in the future.
No matter how much the old lady and the second wife have ideas, it is not good for them to interfere in clan affairs frequently.
has Jia Yun as a younger brother to attract firepower, and Jia Yun, who writes novels, is not so eye-catching.
And he's just in time for the next move!
Don't get me wrong, the reason why Jia Cong made vernacular novels such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" before was not only for Yang Ming but also for selling money.
Of course, at this time, the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has sold hundreds of thousands of books, and Jia Cong has earned almost tens of thousands of taels of silver in one go, which is a fact.
At the same time, as the novel continues to be popular, Jia Cong's popularity as the author continues to increase, and all of it is transformed into luck through the golden finger, which is naturally a good thing for him.
The harvest is great, Jia Cong was not dazzled by the prosperity in front of him, and he did not forget that the most important purpose of writing the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was to comment.
That's right, Jia Cong spent a lot of energy to drum up the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", in addition to using the novel to promote the story of the Three Kingdoms, the most important purpose is in the later comments.
Just like some modern critics, by commenting on the characters of the Three Kingdoms, the events that took place, and some of his own thoughts, readers who have read and liked the story of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" understand that he is not just a novel author.
In the story of the Three Kingdoms, there are many military schemes, as well as the ecology of righteous governance.
Otherwise, there would be no saying in modern society that 'if you don't read the Water Margin, you don't read the Three Kingdoms', because there are too many intrigues and intrigues in the story of the Three Kingdoms, and they all involve power disputes between the court and wealthy families.
Once Jia Cong's comments on the story of the Three Kingdoms are widely recognized, and even affect the judgment of the bigwigs of Rongguo Mansion, can he participate in the decision-making of some affairs in the mansion?
It doesn't matter if the old lady and the second lady don't let go, as long as the eldest and second masters have such a consciousness.
What he needs is the right to speak in the decision-making of certain governments......
