Jia Rong suddenly slapped him in the face with the Imperial College quota, and the atmosphere in the ancestral hall once again became quite embarrassing.
The tribesmen nearby were okay, and the expressions of the parties involved, Mr. Pardon and Lian Er, were a bit subtle.
Where is the Imperial College?
The highest university in the Daqian Empire, it is also a training base for preparatory officials.
All Imperial College students can directly skip the Juren Examination and are eligible to directly participate in the Chunwei Examination to achieve Jinshi status.
At the same time, Imperial College students can also be directly awarded actual official positions without participating in the final spring semester.
It can be said that after entering the Imperial College, you basically have the identity and status of a quasi-official.
The same is true. The admission quota for the Imperial College is naturally quite popular.
For example, only the top students from the government schools and state schools can enter and study after passing numerous examinations.
In addition, only those who hold a third-grade title or above, or a court official with a third-grade title or above, have a quota to enter the Imperial College.
The same is true. For any family that has a quota for admission to the Imperial College, the internal competition for the quota is quite fierce, and people often even die.
The title holder of the Rong Mansion is Lord Pardon, and his title is first-class general, which is equivalent to a first-class official in the court.
Naturally, Mr. Pardon has a quota for admission to the Imperial College.
According to common sense, the admission quota in the Imperial College held by the Pardon Master should be given to Jia Lian, the only legitimate son.
Even if Lian Er had no talent for reading and was just hanging around in the Imperial Academy, his all-around approach would make it easy for him to stand out after entering the officialdom.
Maybe it won't take long to get to the position of a fourth-grade official.
Unfortunately, the old lady Jia Mu did not know what means she used to directly give Jia Zhu the Imperial College admission quota in the hands of the pardoner.
In other words, with Jia Zhu's true level, there was no way he could be admitted to the Imperial College to study.
As for the official position of the Second Master, after working for almost twenty years, he finally moved from the sixth rank of principal to the fifth rank of Yuanwailang. There is no admission quota for the Imperial College at all.
It can be said that Jia Zhu robbed Lian Er of the opportunity to become an official.
How is it possible to say that Mr. Pardon and Lian Er have no knots in their hearts?
That's the quota for the Imperial College. Even if Lian Er can't use it, Lian Er's son can always use it, right?
Even if Lian Er's son isn't good at studying, it's better than getting a second-rate brother for nothing, isn't it?
This is also the main reason why the father and son of the Rong Mansion had subtle expressions when Jia Rong mentioned the matter of the Imperial College.
Fortunately, Jia Zhu still regarded this incident as the biggest stain on her way to school.
If he dares to express his thoughts like this, I'm afraid Master Pardon will fight him to the death.
Jia Rong didn't take Jia Zhu's face into account and said bluntly: "Let's put it this way, Uncle Zhu thinks he has enough knowledge to pass the Chunwei Examination. It doesn't matter if he doesn't need to ask the Imperial Academy for advice!"
"But this time, the clan needs Li Jijiu's connections!"
"No way, I won't speak!"
Jia Zhu's face was full of displeasure, and she said loudly and emotionally.
"It's not like you're doing anything shady!"
Jia Rong said calmly: "Aren't there a few students in the clan school who are about to take part in next year's children's examination?"
"There is a way there too!"
As he said that, he looked around at the clan members present and said leisurely: "Students who are not from a scholarly family or some private schools, unless they are extremely talented, will generally have a hard time passing the exam!"
When they said this, the people present immediately knew what was happening and showed a clear look on their faces.
"My purpose is to use Li Jijiu's channel to say hello in advance to the officials responsible for the childbirth examination in the capital!"
"There is no need for special care from them, but I hope they can be fair and just, and that will be it!"
Having said this, he spread his hands and said with a smile: "If the ethnic studies students taking the Tongsheng Examination have real ability, then that's it. If they don't have real ability, there is no need to force them!"
After that, he looked at Jia Zhu, who looked unhappy and indignant, and said with a smile: "How about it, how about Uncle Zhu helping to spread the word?"
"I don't know how to send messages!"
Jia Zhu lost her temper and said angrily: "Where are the unspoken rules for Tong Sheng's exam? Why haven't I encountered it? It's just an excuse!"
Tsk!
Jia Rong didn't even bother to take another look at this guy, he was so stupid.
He turned to look at Mr. Zheng, who had a rather complicated expression, and said calmly: "Uncle Zheng, do you want you to talk to Uncle Zhu?"
"this……"
The second master of Zheng was very hesitant. Seeing that Jia Zhu was dissatisfied, he had to bite the bullet and said: "When Zhu'er took the child examination, the government had already greeted the examiner at that time in advance.
!”
and!
This is called a secret thing that cannot be seen in the light!
Jia Zhu opened her eyes wide, looking incredulous, and said in surprise: "Master, isn't that the case?"
"What's so strange?"
Jia Rong sneered and said: "The Xungui family has the advantages of the Xungui family. If you don't know how to take advantage of it, then don't take advantage of such good resources!"
"Don't act like a noble scholar. No matter how good you are, those poor scholars will never really regard you as one of their own!"
"It was such a glorious moment for my grandfather to win the Jinshi. It can be said that he was the most dazzling being of the generation of the founding Eighth Duke family!"
"According to the notes he left behind, after my grandfather was admitted to the Hanlin Academy, he suffered unprecedented rejection there!"
"According to the notes, it can be said that my grandfather was completely isolated in the Hanlin Academy and his life was quite difficult!"
Having said this, he looked at Jia Zhu, who was full of surprise, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhu, I don't believe you are not excluded in the Imperial College!"
This sentence seemed to touch Jia Zhu's sad past, and the man's eye circles instantly turned red. It was obvious that Jia Rong had spoken his mind.
"No matter what, Uncle Zhu, you have to do a good job in matters concerning the clan. It's not something shameful!"
Jia Rong ignored the guy's mood and said directly: "If you can't do this well, you won't have to count on the clan to help you in the future!"
"Hmph, even without the clan's help, who can hinder Zhu'er's future?"
At this moment, there was a commotion at the door of the ancestral hall. Jia Mu, the old lady of Rong Mansion, led Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing, followed by Wang Xifeng, and rushed into the door angrily.
"grandmother!"
Jia Zhu stood up with red eyes and looked at Jia Mu like a child who had been wronged.
"Old lady!" "Mother!"
The tribesmen present stood up one after another and greeted Jia Mu who rushed through the door.
Jia Rong did not move. He was holding a clan meeting in the ancestral hall as the head of the Jia clan in the capital.
The state has national laws, and every family has its own rules!
Women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, except for the ancestral wives!
Even if the old lady Jia Mu is the wife of the Duke of the country, the Rongfu said that she is the only one who exists, and the same goes for the highest-ranking female elder of the Jia family in the entire capital.
