Chapter 252 Danger
"Little brother, you are..."
When Li Er entered the room, everything that came into view completely shocked him.
When normal people read books, they will randomly find books they like to read carefully. This guy is so good that he just bury himself in the sea of books.
No wonder this kid is so talented, amazingly academic, and even studying is so unique.
I am afraid that there are more books scattered on the ground in front of me than those in the imperial study room.
Sure enough, there is no shortcut to success. They only see the skills and achievements of their little brothers, but no one sees the efforts they make on weekdays.
"Old Li, why are you here again?"
After seeing the person coming, Mu Jiuge still had no intention of getting up. After asking, he put the books in his hand aside.
"Little brother, isn't it because you said you haven't read these things? Or is there any problem in these classics?"
Out of curiosity, after randomly reading the basics, Li Er suddenly discovered that these classics are all classical classics.
This confused Li Er. He didn't know what trouble this kid was going to do. If he were a normal person, these classics should have been read since childhood.
Especially for people like the little brother, it is incredible to say that they have never read these things.
"Just just to review it, it's been too long and I can't remember a lot of things very clearly."
He shook his head slightly. He had no fun with these things. If he hadn't been able to use them in the future, he would not have wasted his time on this.
"Little brother, just know what the things on it mean, there is no need to memorize them all!"
I can't remember some things clearly, so I made them out and read them again. Is this human language?
"What do you know about ignorant guys like you?"
Mu Jiuge was very resistant to Lao Li's concept.
Since you are interested in learning, you must learn it thoroughly and understand it. It is better not to learn it without understanding it.
"I'm a little curious. What a shame, why did you attack these things? Could it be that you want to compile some other things in these classics?"
Li Er has long been accustomed to this kid's ridicule. With his understanding of this kid, he is definitely the kind of person who cannot afford to get up early.
"Old Li, your family has a great career, so naturally I won't pay attention to the outside world's movements. This young master is different. I don't want anything. I can't count on anyone except relying on myself."
"The imperial court is short of people now. I am not studying my homework. If I can, I may not be able to take the scientific exam next year. Maybe I can really get a job as a single official and a half-time job."
Mu Jiuge said mysteriously that he has a lot of money now, and it should be enough if he will never lose his fortune in his life.
But my identity and status are too low. Although I cannot let my name pass on forever, at least in Chang'an City, if you mention your name, everyone must know it.
"What's the matter? You said you want to take the scientific exam?"
Fearing that he had heard it wrong, Li Er subconsciously dug out his ears and asked again.
At the beginning, I persuaded this kid many times to take the scientific exam, but in the end I was rejected by this kid.
Even now I no longer expect him to become an official in the court. Maintaining such friendship and coming over to sit for too long is a good choice.
Now that he is already desperate about this, he has changed his mind, which is really a surprise.
"Is there any problem? Can't a talented person like this young master take the scientific examination?"
I just told the thoughts in my heart, but did not say that I would definitely participate. What is this old boy's attitude?
"Little brother, if you want to become an official in the court, you don't have to be so troublesome. As long as someone goes back and helps you operate, it shouldn't be a problem."
Forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart, Li Er patted his chest and said, "By the ability of his little brother, participating in this so-called scientific examination is an insult to him."
Who in the whole court has the ability to set questions and teach him?
"I'm talking nonsense. I want to rely on my own abilities to become an official. That kind of bad practice is really a shame."
Mu Jiuge stared at Lao Li directly. If his abilities could not enter the court as an official, then there would probably be a huge dark curtain hidden in the imperial examination system.
"If I remember correctly, I, Lao Sun and others had advised my younger brothers to take the scientific exam and serve the country, but you eventually refused."
"I really can't figure out what exactly made you change your mind?"
This kid's idea is very long-term and ordinary people cannot match it at all.
"Today's Tang Dynasty is developing rapidly, and it seems that the country is peaceful and peaceful. Whether it is military, agriculture, commerce, or other industries, it seems that it is prosperous, with peace and prosperity all over the world and peace in the country."
"But the huge crisis hidden behind these problems has never been noticed. Population shortage is not only a disadvantage of other countries, but also our powerful Tang Dynasty."
"No matter what kind of industry, the local officials sent by the court, and the operation of local governments, there is a shortage of population."
Not to mention those corrupt officials, but just talking about good officials who can do practical things for the people, the situation they are facing now is like this, but they dare not raise it.
"crisis?"
If this kid hadn't proposed this, he wouldn't have taken this into consideration.
"What? Do you think this young master is exaggerating? With your relationship behind it, I believe that you will not be too unfamiliar with the officials in the court."
"But you have considered a problem. Most of the officials in the court are actually old men, followed by middle-aged people. As for young people, they are almost impossible to see."
"Do you know what this situation means? This young master has no intention of looking down on these old ministers, but simply feels that they occupy a position that is not their age."
"Whether it is a prosperous country or a business with excellent performance, it is inseparable from fresh blood."
"And these old ministers have long been deeply rooted in their conservative thinking, and they have no youthful and active thinking at all."
"So, under the leadership of these old ministers, the court could only continue to follow the path that the older generation had taken, without the courage to open up a new path itself."
This is the biggest problem facing the Tang Dynasty now. It is good to stick to the rules, but he should not expect new transcendence in his life.
After such remarks, Li Er frowned and pondered. As the little brother said, the ministers who occupy important positions in the court are all old men, and there is no fresh blood at all. They are all their old brothers.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this reason that I have always believed in them, even when I have doubts about them.
But when I think of the love I had in the past, I silently swallowed my words back.
