Yu Tongfu was stunned again, then heard Shi Zhongkui say with a smile, "I don't care about things that shouldn't be done. Ignore things that are not my own. I am friendly to my colleagues but alienated and reserved.

Do not flatter or flatter Shangguan, stay quietly in the Hanlin Academy, read history books, and work hard to study the history of the country.

After ten years of hard work, he will still be better than those fellow scholars who are studying abroad.

Twenty or thirty years later, a third-grade person will still be fine. After all, you are still a prostitute. If you are lucky enough to become a minister and retire, you will be regarded as the most promising ancestor in the family tree by future generations."

When Zhang Juzheng was in the Hanlin Academy, he spent five or six years reading history books and studying the history of the dynasty and the country.

It also really made Zhang Juzheng know better how to be an official.

But even so, Lao Zhang is not without making mistakes.

Yu Tongfu didn't laugh and curse, "Fuck you."

Yu Tongfu couldn't tell that Shi Zhongkui was making fun of him, but he sent Shi Zhongkui away and returned to the study to calm down and think carefully.

This advice is really suitable for me, and the word "endurance" really explains the first half of the Hanlin's life.

The young Hanlin are spending time in the Hanlin Academy, but those who have a rift in their hearts, aren’t they also spending time in the localities and courts?

At that time, Wang Anshi had been looking after him for many years, but after all, he had to endure it?

"Hey", Yu Tongfu sighed, sorted out his thoughts, and then wrote a letter to Yu Honggao.

After receiving the letter, Lao Yu sighed for a long time.

Some truths are common to modern people, but whether the ancients could understand the truths in books without relying on their own reading depends on their talent.

It also depends on future life experiences.

Even if a teacher teaches by words and deeds, how much you can learn depends on yourself.

After taking care of the father and son Yu Honggao and Yu Tongfu, Shi Zhongkui took people to the Ministry of Industry the next day.

In addition to solving some problems of dredging the river, the more important thing is to see Jia Zheng.

To be honest, dredging the river is not difficult for Shi Zhongkui, it is even easy.

It was not as difficult as he said when he scared Yu Tongfu before.

Wherever there is a lot of silt, Liu Yuer and Chang Baiyu have already checked it out clearly.

I am not short of money, food and manpower, and I have the power of an imperial envoy. If this still fails, I might as well hide in the Hanlin Academy and compile history books.

Moreover, the interests of the gentry that were harmed when dredging the river can be completely compensated for by clearing wasteland.

When I came to see Jia Zheng, I couldn't go directly to Rongguo Mansion to find Jia Baoyu.

Secondly, after getting the red fruit before, I was worried that planting this kind of spiritual fruit might break the balance of spiritual energy in the space farm.

Even if it can be filled with the power of collected incense and even merits, why waste the incense and merits since Jia Baoyu's piece of psychic jade is there?

Third, my goal this time is directly on the psychic gem.

That piece of jade looked like just a piece of jade with good texture, which meant that I had the opportunity to fake it.

But if you want to replace the psychic gem without any trouble, you must at least deceive the psychic gem that already has intelligence first.

Therefore, these days Shi Zhongkui asked the Chinchilla to visit jade shops and pawn shops in Gyeonggi Province.

Finally, I found a few pieces of jade that looked very similar to the texture of psychic jade.

After getting hold of the psychic gem, in the space farm, he used his mind to carve out a very familiar gem.

Moreover, if you want to avoid being suspected, you must at least take Jia Baoyu out for a trip.

If the jade is lost and found again, basically no one will suspect it.

------

After finishing the things you came to the Ministry of Industry to do, and meeting the people you want to see.

Shi Zhongkui then came to Jia Zheng's side.

It was already the noon meal period, and ordinary officials would bring their own meals or eat those provided by the yamen.

But Jia Zheng was not used to eating ordinary things.

Only at this time can the Jia family's servants be qualified to carry food boxes into the Yamen.

Moreover, after serving Jia Zheng, he immediately had to go to the side room provided by the front office for the servants and servants of various officials.

Shi Zhongkui had an idea and decided to wait until a quarter past noon.

After eating a full meal at noon, people usually have thoughts of dozing off.

I saw a few boys carrying food boxes out of Jia Zheng's official office, "Well, Master Zheng is taking a lunch break?"

When the boy next to Jia Zheng saw Shi Zhongkui wearing official uniform, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, "I have met you, sir."

Hearing Shi Zhongkui address him like this again, I was surprised at the same time, and then I dared to raise my head and take a look.

When they saw Shi Zhongkui, they immediately knelt on the ground in excitement, "Young man, I have met my uncle. I have just finished my meal and am taking a rest."

"Who's talking outside?"

After hearing this, Jia Zheng's servant hurriedly stood outside the door and reported, "Sir, it's the second uncle who comes to see you."

Upon hearing that it was Shi Zhongkui, Jia Zheng stood up quickly and said, "Please invite Bo Qian in quickly."

Shi Zhongkui smiled and pushed open the door, saluted Jia Zheng who stood up to greet him, and said, "My nephew has met Mr. Zheng."

Hearing that Shi Zhongkui was a secluded person who did not show courtesy due to his official position, Jia Zheng nodded happily and said reproachfully, "Bo Qian has come to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry several times, but this is the first time he has come to see me."

Shi Zhongkui realized that this was a joke, "My eldest sister did not confer a concubine on my nephew to avoid suspicion, because she was worried that if the imperial mission could not be completed, my second uncle would be in trouble.

But now that the eldest sister has become a concubine, it would seem too deliberate to avoid seeing her at this time. It would be better to come and see my second uncle openly."

In fact, these words were just to deceive Jia Zheng.

But after listening to it, he suddenly realized without any doubt, "Bo Qian is still too far-sighted. You are the son-in-law of my Jia family. No matter good or bad, you and I should stand together through thick and thin and share weal and woe."

Shi Zhongkui was a little ashamed when he said this directly, but when he thought of Jia She and Jia Zhen, those embarrassing thoughts were immediately thrown out of the sky.

Seeing his shy expression, Jia Zheng mistakenly thought that Shi Zhongkui had heard what he just said.

He smiled and said, "This time you come to me, but it's about dredging the river?"

Shi Zhongkui secretly sighed that Jia Zheng was indeed a good person. Although he admired Jia Zheng in his heart, he would not give up the calculation.

Deliberately mentioning Xue Pan and Shi Guangzhu, "As for the imperial envoy, Brother Pan and Uncle Shi from the Duke Tui's Mansion can help, so it won't be a big problem.

Moreover, my nephew thinks that he still has some tricks, so he came to my second uncle for the sake of Lang Geer's studies."

Jia Zheng was stunned. While he was worried about Jia Lan, he also thought about the fact that Shi Guangzhu and Xue Pan were both promoted by the emperor from the sixth rank to Xuandelang and the seventh rank to Xuandelang.

It is impossible to say in my heart that I am not envious.

Although casual officials do not have any real power, they are still officials who enjoy the treatment of official officials.

Once you have made meritorious service, you will have the qualifications and opportunity to become a full-time official.

Moreover, Wang Ziteng promised to help Jia Baoyu with a good job and official position when he got married.

Without comparison, Jia Zheng and the Jia family would not be envious.

But a libertine like Xue Pan is now a serious seventh-rank official.

It immediately appeared that Shi Zhongkui was not only more capable, but also more practical than Wang Ziteng.

For the benefit of Xue Pan, my brother-in-law, I don’t have so much utilitarianism.

Thinking of this, Jia Zheng suddenly felt that it was necessary to deepen his relationship with Shi Zhongkui.

Maybe it could also be Jia Baoyu's origin.

He hurriedly asked, "But Lan'er doesn't pay attention to studying?"

"On the contrary quietly," Shi Zhongkui sighed, "My nephew recently saw from Lang Geer's study progress that he studies too hard, which is actually not a good thing."

Jia Zheng was suddenly surprised and asked, "Why is this?"

Shi Zhongkui couldn't help but sigh. He originally wanted to use Jia Lan to implicate Jia Baoyu, but talking to such an old master was troublesome.

"Although Lange's 7-year-old is indeed the time to lay the foundation, the most important thing for him at this age is to maintain his health. Otherwise, even if he succeeds in studying, if he suffers from a bad body, the gain will not be worth the loss."

These words instantly reminded Jia Zheng of his deceased eldest son Jia Zhu.

At that time, Jia Zhu became a scholar at the age of 15. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Jia family's hopes were high.

It's a pity that he studied too hard and married too early, so he died of an illness.

As for the reason for staying up so late, whether it is studying or something else, only the Jia family themselves know.

This is why Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang have never dared to force Jia Baoyu to study.

It is impossible for Jia Zheng, a biological father, to say that he does not regret it.

Seeing Jia Zheng's expression darken, Shi Zhongkui immediately knew that his plan was successful.

He pretended to persuade, "Second uncle, based on my nephew's observation during this period, Lange'er is well-behaved, sensible, diligent and studious. He is indeed the seed of reading.

After three to five years, it will still be no problem to become a scholar.
