Seeing Qi Wang like this, Qi Shengkun felt relieved. After all, Qi Wang couldn't sit still for a quarter of an hour in the past. As long as he was asked to read and write, his body seemed to grow buds, and he kept moving until the end. The invited master couldn't stand it anymore, and punished him to stand, which was obviously a punishment for scholars, but he was able to run and stand happily, and said that he would rather stand than read and write there.
Sure enough, the child hadn't enlightened in the past, but now that he has enlightened, he finally knows that he has made progress in reading.
Qi Shengkun didn't bother Qi Wang, he told his servants not to tell Qi Wang that he was here, and then left quietly.
However, with Qi Wang's hearing ability, he could naturally hear the sound of extra breathing outside the door, but he didn't care about it. After writing and drawing on the paper, he looked at what he had written, shook his head, and revisited the sound of breathing. Put the paper into the brazier next to it, the flames in the brazier licked the paper, and quickly burned the paper with handwriting to ashes.
Previously, Qi Wang originally wanted to gain fame through the imperial examination. Once he had fame, the status of the Qi family would be different from before. If Sun Ziyun finally got mixed up with King Qinghe, by then King Qinghe didn't dare to act on his own initiative for a person with a reputation.
After all, although King Qinghe is a prince, he has no ambitions. In addition, the current emperor is young and powerful, and the prince is the eldest son and grandson, so he is very popular with the emperor. Unless King Qinghe rebels, he will not be destined for the throne.
And the status of scholars in the Great Yan Dynasty is very high, even powerful people can't easily attack scholars, and the status of scholars with fame is even higher, even if those rich and powerful people look down on poor people in their hearts The scholars who came out, at least on the face of it, did not dare to embarrass them easily.
King Qinghe could do something to embarrass an imperial businessman for Sun Ziyun, but he couldn't do anything to a famous scholar without any justifiable reason.
Unless this matter is never leaked out, King Qinghe's reputation will definitely be stained.
It's just that the original owner's previous starting point was too low. Qi Wang could use his own ability to be admitted to Jinshi, but it would take at least three years to achieve it.
And King Qinghe will come to Jizhou City in a short time. By that time, Sun Ziyun will probably try to get in touch with the other party. Now the relationship between their family and Sun Ziyun has been torn. , she will never make it easy for the Qi family.
In the original plot, the Qi family was devoted to Sun Ziyun, but Sun Ziyun could watch Qinghe King ruin the entire Qi family, and now the Qi family offended her to death. If she didn't take revenge on the Qi family, then She was no longer Sun Ziyun.
The road to take part in the imperial examination is impassable. If you want to protect the Qi family, you have to think of other ways. In the past few days, Qi Wang has studied all the laws and customs of the Great Yan Dynasty. It really made him want to Come up with a way.
There is such a rule in the Great Yan Dynasty that if someone can offer something that is of great use to the country, he can be granted an official position by exception.
There is such a person recorded in the history books. He invented fertilizer that can increase food production, and then contributed it to it. After confirming that the fertilizer was indeed useful, the emperor granted him a fifth-rank member of the Ministry of Industry Uiro's official position.
That man can be said to be a model of reaching the sky in one step. After all, he was just an ordinary man in the country before, and it was because of an accident that he researched that kind of fertilizer. status has risen.
Now it’s too late to take the imperial examination through formal channels. Even if Qi Wang takes the exam this year, he can only get the honor of a child student at most. If he wants to be a scholar, he will have to wait until next year. Maybe King Qinghe has already taken action against the Qi family.
It's just that the things that can be developed by adapting to this era and using the technological level of this era are very limited. Qi writes and draws, and can't find suitable things for a while.
Of course, with Qi Wang's ability, it is not so difficult for him to create something out of thin air, but soon Qi Wang discovered that this world is a world that has almost taken shape, and everything has its own laws, so he took it out The thing must have had a prototype before, but it has not been invented yet. According to the trajectory of this world, that thing will be invented in the future, and that future should not be too far away from the present. The restrictions imposed by delusions are even greater.
Qi Wang wrote a lot of things, and finally rejected them one by one. Then he suddenly thought of something, and wrote it neatly on the paper.
Bows and arrows have already appeared in this era, but if you want to use bows and arrows in this era, you have to practice for a long time before you can get started. The threshold is a bit too high, and burst fire has not yet appeared. What Qi Wang has to do now is □□ that can be sent in succession.
After he drew the first pattern, stared at it for a while, and confirmed that it could be produced with the current level of production, Qi Wang breathed a sigh of relief, and took the paper with the pattern on it. Fold it up and put it next to your body.
Tomorrow he will find all the materials to make it.
Qi Shengkun was happy that his son was finally on the right path and began to read and practice calligraphy. He was thinking about asking his wife to teach Qi Wang a lesson, but the next day he heard that Qi Wang sent someone to buy a lot of messy things, and then he was alone. People locked themselves in the room, knocking and beating, not knowing what they were doing.
Qi Shengkun: "..."
He originally thought that after this incident, his son had made progress, and finally knew that he had to study to get a good name, but it turned out that after another three minutes of enthusiasm, his nature was revealed, and Qi Shengkun felt a little lost, but before he I have been lost many times, but this time, my state is better than before.
"Xiyu, it seems that the two of us are destined not to have a son who will take the imperial examination. It is better to let him get married early and give birth to a grandson early. We brought him up since childhood, maybe we can raise him." Come out with a grandson who became an official in the court."
Hearing Qi Shengkun's unreliable words, Liu Xiyu said helplessly.
"Master Ah Wang is only fourteen years old this year, and his temperament has not yet settled down. Maybe he will know how to study seriously in two days."
Qi Shengkun has heard this saying countless times in the past. People say that three years old is old. He didn't believe this before, thinking that his son would be sensible and obedient when he was older, but he didn't expect that when he was older, he was the same as when he was three years old.
"Forget it, when you are at home these two days, supervise and supervise him to see what he thinks. After all, he is such a big child, and he should decide which way he will go in the future. If he really doesn't want to Studying and taking the imperial examination, then I can talk to him and let him follow me out to discuss business."
It's not too late to go out to discuss business with me at the age of fourteen, and I don't expect Qi Huang to do anything with his hands, at least he can learn a lot.
Liu Xiyu nodded, comforted Qi Shengkun again, and the husband and wife lay down.
***
Qi Shengkun left home very early in the morning of the next day, and not long after, Qi Wang and Qi Feng came to the main courtyard to accompany Liu Xiyu for dinner.
Sitting at the dining table, Liu Xiyu looked at the two bruises under Qi Wang's eyes, and couldn't help asking: "Ah Wang, what are you doing recently? Why do you look listless?"
Qi Wang yawned, looked up at Liu Xiyu, he smiled, and explained: "Mother, I've been working on something recently, if it's done, it might be of great use."
After hearing what Qi Wang said, Liu Xiyu became interested and asked.
"Then can you tell mother what you are doing? Mother is very curious about what attracted your attention and made you sleepy. Look at you. If you don't know, you will think You've been studying and practicing calligraphy all night."
Liu Xiyu brought the topic to this on purpose, she wanted to ask Qi Wang what kind of thoughts he had on studying for fame.
Qi Huang replied with a smile: "Reading and literacy will not keep me up all night, but it is a bit troublesome to make, and many places need to be carefully crafted. Sometimes I forget the time when I am so busy..."
It is not so easy to make □□ by hand, especially Qi Wang strives for excellence and must ensure that there are no accidents, so it takes longer time. Sometimes he forgets the time when he is busy and cannot sleep well. This spirit The state is naturally much worse.
After Liu Xiyu pondered for a while, she said: "Ah Wang Niang will not go around with you anymore. Your father told me before that if you want to study and take the imperial examination, then please invite your master to come home and teach you, but if you are right If you are not interested in taking the imperial examination, then you will go out with your father to discuss business."
Qi thought for a while and said, "Mother, I'm quite busy during this time. Whether it's studying or going to business, I may not be able to spare time. Can you give me another half a month? It only takes half a month. gone."
Liu Xiyu thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.
"That's OK, but half a month is half a month. You can't find other reasons to procrastinate by then. You are not young anymore, and it's time to think about the future."
Qi Wang nodded obediently, indicating that he understood.
After finishing talking with her son, Liu Xiyu turned her head to look at Qi Feng who was sitting on the other side, and asked, "Feng'er, what happened to the account book that mother showed you? What do you think after reading it?"
In recent days, Liu Xiyu has taught Qi Feng to start a housekeeper, and the most important thing for a female housekeeper is the account books at home. She deliberately picked out some problematic account books for Qi Feng to look at, to see her daughter's talent in this area how.
Qi Feng explained the problems he discovered one by one, and Liu Xiyu nodded with satisfaction.
"That's great. It seems that your comprehension is good. Today, mother will teach you something else."
Qi Feng obediently nodded in agreement.
She originally wanted to ask Liu Xiyu when she would take her to deal with the matter of the four Sun Ziyun siblings, but thinking of her mother's previous teachings, Qi Feng still didn't ask this question, and seeing her like this, Liu Xiyu nodded secretly.
My son and daughter are all very smart, but it seems that Qi Feng's personality was a little too soft before, and he didn't know how to turn around when doing things, so he just said what he had to say. This kind of personality has to be changed slowly.
After eating, Qi Wang bid farewell and went back to Pine Fragrance Garden. Looking at his back in a hurry, Qi Feng shook his head amusedly.
And Liu Xiyu couldn't help laughing, and said in a warm voice: "Mother has left you alone for a long time before, and thinking about it, you really want to see the life of the four siblings of the Sun family. Today, mother will take you there." What do you think?"
After hearing this, Qi Feng's eyes lit up instantly: "Mom, can we really go over and have a look today?"
Seeing Liu Xiyu nodded, the smile on Qi Feng's face grew wider: "Mother, you are so kind."
Liu Xiyu patted Qi Feng's head, and led her to the courtyard where the four Sun siblings lived.
The four members of the Sun family were arranged by Liu Xiyu in a remote courtyard. Although the courtyard was not abandoned, but because it had not been taken care of for a long time, the whole courtyard looked out of place with the magnificent Qi Mansion.
Qi Feng had never even been to this place, and she didn't even know that there was such a place in Qi's residence.
"Mother, aren't you afraid of being criticized if you put the four of the Sun family siblings here?"
Qi Feng remembered that Liu Xiyu had to keep the four Sun family siblings. At that time, it was because they had taken advantage of them. They had to take into account the reputation of the imperial merchants. No matter how reluctant they were, they could only let them stay.
According to Qi Feng's thinking, after they are left behind, they can't be treated badly, but looking at the courtyard where they live now, Qi Feng has doubts in his heart.
If it is known that they live in this place, what should people outside say about them
Seeing the puzzled look on her daughter's face, Liu Xiyu said lightly, "Do you think it's not good to spread the word like this now?"
Qi Feng nodded, she really thought so.
However, Liu Xiyu replied: "I gave them a place to live, and I also gave them food and clothing, and I didn't let them abuse them. How can this be considered a bad treatment?"
