Jing Yuzhao smiled unscrupulously, "I'll give you an analogy." Many saints say that life is like climbing a mountain, and you have to work hard to reach the top of the mountain. This well-born person was already at the foot of the mountain as soon as he was born, and some people were already halfway up the mountain. And if a person who is not born well wants to climb a mountain, he also needs to walk from a long distance to the foot of the mountain, so that he can start climbing, do you understand? ”

"I know, but isn't that fair?"

"It's a little unfair, but the world is impermanent, some people who are already halfway up the mountain may stumble and fall, while others may overcome all the difficulties to climb up. In the middle of this mountain, there will also be people who meet on narrow roads, some people will be kicked down, and some people will step on others to climb up. "Jing Yuzhao can't tell fairy tales, fairy tales are just illusory, and reality is cruel.

The young boy was silent, it turned out that the outside world was like this, and after a moment he said, "I want to be the one who climbed to the top of the mountain." ”

"Then I wish you success."

"Thank you." The boy turned and left.

Not far away, Zhuang Xiao stood for a long time, and it turned out that this was Princess Anqing. Sure enough, the rumor is a terrible thing, in his heart, Princess Anqing is a three-headed and six-armed soul-seeking ghost, one is unhappy and kills, and he is not soft in Chaoyang Palace, Fang Zhong feels a little bit of a door in the back.

As night fell, Jing Yuzhao and the others scattered into the place that was being arranged. Jing Yuzhao was treated better and lived in Lizheng's house. His family is good, a small tile house, and the conditions in the village are good. Li Zheng also saw that their status was noble, and Jing Yuzhao answered honestly when he asked anything. And the questions asked by Jing Yuzhao are a bit scary.

"How is your prefectural order here? Is there any abuse of power to prey on the common people? If you have one, you can say oh, I'll kill you for you. Zixuan listened to it in the back as if she was covering the princess's mouth, and the princess was overjoyed.

Li Zheng said a little tremblingly, "No, the county magistrate is very good, fair and honest." ”

"That's good."

"Is Childe okay? The little one stepped back first. ”

"No, let's go rest."

Juan Niang walked in, "Master, Lord Fang said that Lord Zhuang wants to see you." ”

Jing Yuzhao got off the ground, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”

When the group came out of the house, Mrs. Li Zheng whispered, "Who are these people, the county commander dares to kill them." ”

"I don't know, but I inquired, that old man Zhuang used to be a master in the capital Guozijian, and that Lord Fang seems to be a big official in the court. And this son is more noble than a big official, and he must be a great person. "Li Zheng feels that he is going to be lucky, and he has met a great nobleman.

Jing Yuzhao entered the thatched house and saw that the two of them were waiting for her, Jing Yuzhao stepped forward and saluted Zhuang Xiao, "Yuzhao has seen Mr. Zhuang. ”

"Don't dare, I'm an old man, and you're a noble princess." Zhuang Xiao's words were slightly sour.

Jing Yuzhao didn't care and sat down. "It was my idea and the Lord Regent's idea to come this time. There is a shortage of good officials in the court, and the imperial examination has a time limit, and it also needs to work and cost money, so I would like to ask you to go to the capital to help preside over several small selections, preferably to select some high-ranking people, and there is no age limit. ”

Only then did Zhuang Xiao know what Princess Anqing asked him to do, but it was difficult for him to take on this matter! This is something that very prestigious people can do. "I'm afraid I'll disappoint the princess, the minister doesn't have that prestige, now in Tianqing, only Lord Jiang has this prestige, the old man goes to move, I'm afraid it will cause infamy through the ages."

"Don't worry, we've got someone else in charge besides you." Jingyu Zhao and the regent are not unprepared people, they also prepared a person, but he is too old and can only be posed as a mascot.

Fang Zhong was curious about who it was, Zhuang Xiao thought for a long time and finally thought of a person, "It's the former head and the adult." ”

"Exactly." The father of the East Empress Dowager, Lord Yu was subordinate to the unloading and killing of the donkey. There is also this reason for the tension between the Empress Dowager and the first emperor, but Yu Lu is really a person with a high reputation, and his knowledge is irrefutable, which is also the reason why he survived back then.

Zhuang Xiao was a little excited, he felt that this would be an earth-shattering event, but this kind of thing, if you do it well, you will leave it in history, and if you don't do it well, it will stink for thousands of years. Jing Yuzhao also saw his concerns, "The Empress Dowager Dong has already sent someone to take Mr. Yu into Beijing, he is too old to sit in charge, but you are shouldering a heavy responsibility." Of course, the palace and the regent have made up their minds that this must be done. ”

Zhuang Xiao looked at Princess Anqing, who had a straight back, and said, "Princess, the old man wants to ask a question." ”

"Just ask."

"What does the princess think of this country and this Shilin student?"

This question is good, and it is also good if it is used in the examination of students. However, this is not a question for Jing Yuzhao, she never answers questions for the sake of answering questions, she only answers her true thoughts. "This palace will first talk about the country you want. The reason why the Tianqing Dynasty is a dynasty is because of its vast territory, large number of people, and prosperity and power. But time passes, and the dynasty should be progressive, it should be getting stronger, not weaker. So where does it come from? The standard of living of the people, the level of our soldiers, the invention and creation of weapons and appliances......"

Jing Yuzhao said with a dry mouth, took a sip of tea and continued, "This country needs people to govern, who will govern it?" It's certainly not one person, it's a lot of people. Shilin students are the people who govern, it's not that the palace looks down on the students, it's that many times they only say some big truths and recite a few crooked poems, as for practice, they don't understand anything, they don't know anything. If you are dedicated to doing practical things, you can't learn, but you can learn quickly if you are intrigued, fight for power, abuse your power, and accept bribes. This palace and the regent don't want such a person this time, they want a down-to-earth and hard-working person......"

After speaking, Zhuang was enthusiastic, and Jing Yuzhao was empty. I feel that I have used what I have known in my two lifetimes, and when I talk to these literati, I have to speak in a crepe. But these are indeed her inner words, "Time is pressing, Mr. Zhuang only has one night to think about it, we had better leave tomorrow." ”

"Listening to the princess's words today, I suddenly became enlightened, and I will definitely give the princess an answer tomorrow."

Jing Yuzhao got up, "You have a good chat with Fang Zhong, and the palace will go back to rest first." "I hope everything will go well tomorrow, but if his mother-in-law and mother don't agree, she will tie him up and take him back to the capital.

At noon the next day, Zhuang Xiao packed a small bag and prepared to go out, and saw his student Ergouzi at the door. "Ergouzi, why are you here?"

"Master, take me with you, I can do anything, cook and chop wood for fire, don't worry, I have very little food, and I won't cause you trouble." Ergouzi said anxiously, he wanted to go to the capital to have a look. Take a hundred plating and read the latest chapter of "Princess Shu's Counterattack Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
