Therefore, she hoped he would give less.
"But it's too tiring. I hope you can relax a bit."
"You have to maintain so many businesses, even overseas. It takes a lot of energy every day. You also have to train your troops. If this continues, you'll be exhausted sooner or later."
"Isn't the vast Prince Pei's mansion enough to keep you busy?"
Pei Shijiu raised an eyebrow: "My eldest brother is the eldest son, so he should be the one to shoulder the responsibility. I've lived a carefree life, and it's not so bad for me to do that."
Qiao Lian'er seemed to understand something and looked at him again.
He looked at her, his eyes sparkling like the shimmering light of a lake.
Qiao Lian'er felt a warmth in her heart and smiled, "Okay, then I'll see the results in a month."
Then she handed him the book of formations. Pei Shijiu read a few pages and his face showed understanding. He usually read a wide range of things, including strategies and military tactics.
Therefore, he was confident that as long as she provided an opportunity to take the lead.
"Is there anything I can do for you?" Qiao Lian'er asked.
Pei Shijiu thought of Princess Pei's request and said, "Little girl, I think you can also use your talents in other areas."
"for example?"
"For example, some internal affairs of the imperial court."
Qiao Lian'er pondered: "Having power over domestic affairs is certainly not a bad thing, but as you know, it is not easy for me to achieve this. Now that I have military power, I am already an exception."
Although she had an upward-striving and unyielding spirit, she had to admit that in ancient times, it was much more difficult for women.
If a man possessed her abilities, he could likely rise to the highest ranks of officialdom.
“Then I’ll go with you. The year after next, I’ll take the imperial examination to become a Juren (a successful candidate in the provincial-level imperial examinations) and then a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the metropolitan-level imperial examinations). With me by your side, you won’t have so many worries.”
Qiao Lian'er was somewhat taken aback, because a family like his, whose ancestors had been blessed with noble titles and whose titles had been passed down through generations, did not need to take the imperial examination route.
Many sons of powerful and wealthy families did not participate in the imperial examinations; they had their own places in the officialdom.
Of course, only those who excel in the imperial examinations can stand out and go further in their careers. This is why most prominent families still require their children to take the imperial examinations, and those famous academies are extremely competitive.
"Scientific research is not as simple as it sounds; it requires hard work and dedication."
“Then I will pay the price. Can’t I even endure this little bit of hardship? Little girl, I don’t want to hide under the protection of my ancestors. I want the Emperor to see my talents, appoint me, and value me.”
I also hope that you will think more highly of me.
Qiao Lian'er looked at the boy with more admiration.
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
She didn't want the boy to sacrifice for her; if he could truly rank high in the exam, it would be for his own sake.
A few days later, as soon as Da Cheng returned home, he said, "The second young master of the Pei family goes to his fiefdom every day to train the captains for Lian'er, and he also reads books at the same time. It is really hard work for him."
