"I don't like going out." Zhao Qingrui said lightly. What's wrong with this kid? Why does he always stay close to her?
Could this person be a remnant of the Six Kingdoms?
After imagining a lot, Zhao Qingrui looked at Jia Henian. If he dared to make any unusual moves, he would go back and let the people from the Black Ice Platform find out everything about their ancestors for eighteen generations.
"There are so many fun things to do in Xianyang now, but you don't like going out." Jia Henian said with regret, as if Zhao Qingrui had missed out on a million dollars.
Zhao Qingrui couldn't help but twitch her lips. Was she that familiar with this person? This guy was too familiar, even more so than Sheng Guanping back then.
"What about you? You are not from Xianyang, are you?" Zhao Qingrui glanced at Jia Henian. She had never seen this man among the nobles in Xianyang.
The palace had held so many banquets, and she had basically met the families of the ministers in the court.
This Jia Henian seems to be well-dressed and well-spoken, and it is clear that he was not educated by the common people.
"No, my name is Jia Henian. My home is in Hanzhong County. The library has a more complete range of books. I am also preparing for next year's official assessment." Jia Henian introduced himself hurriedly and almost forgot to introduce himself in front of the beauty. He was really careless.
"Is that so? Then you should work hard. It's not easy to pass the exam to become an official." Zhao Qingrui raised his eyebrows, not too surprised. Most people who read books in this library come here with the intention of passing the exam to become an official.
"Well, I know that too. I heard that the assessment is getting more and more difficult." When talking about this, Jia Henian felt a little discouraged.
It is really difficult to pursue a career in politics. Since he decided to do so, he has also done a lot of exercises.
Nowadays, in addition to written tests, there are also interviews.
He was not too worried about the interview. His father was the county magistrate and he had many opportunities to come into contact with various things, so the interview was not difficult for him.
The difficult part was the written test. He had done so many exercises but still had no confidence.
If he had known that the world was changing so quickly, he should have come to Xianyang to take the exam a few years earlier. Maybe he would have become an official by now.
Many people knew that there was a shortage of officials in the Qin Dynasty, but the court still did not lower its standards and even became more and more strict, which made him very uncomfortable.
"Whose family is the girl from? Is she also preparing for the official assessment?" After a moment of loss, Jia Henian immediately asked enthusiastically again.
"I won't take the exam." Zhao Qingrui chuckled.
"Ah? Why is this?" Jia Henian looked at Zhao Qingrui in confusion.
"Aunt, Ziying greets you." Just when Jia Henian was about to ask something, Ziying came over to read a book and actually saw Zhao Qingrui. He did not dare to neglect her and hurried over to pay his respects.
"Stand up, please. Why are you here to read? Didn't you go out to play on your day off today?" Zhao Qingrui asked gently.
Her brothers and sisters became a little distant from her, but the child was still very warm to her.
Fusu has not returned yet, and Ziying is now in charge of the family alone, with a bit of the style of being the master of the house.
Jia Henian looked at Zhao Qingrui strangely. What did she say just now? Stand up?
By the way, does a nephew need to perform such a grand ceremony when bowing to his aunt?
At this time, Jia Henian felt that something seemed wrong.
"No, I have recently learned some knowledge about navigation from Mr. Zhao Wen. I came here to look for the classics left by the Mohist school in the library." Ziying said respectfully.
"Why do you want to learn about navigation?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Ziying in surprise.
"Ziying wants to go out to sea in the future." Ziying scratched his head embarrassedly. His grandfather and others went out to play, and he wanted to go with them. Unfortunately, his parents were not in Xianyang, and he was the only one in charge of the family. Even if he wanted to go, he couldn't.
"Oh, that's a good thing. Learn more. There are many things in the sea, and the world overseas is also very vast." Zhao Qingrui smiled and patted Ziying's shoulder.
"Aunt, don't you think I'm wasting my time on trivial things? Father wants me to learn more from Doctor Chunyu." Ziying looked at Zhao Qingrui with shining eyes.
"How could that be? I'll go talk to my eldest brother. Just learn whatever you want to learn. You have to remember, there are top talents in all 360 professions. There is no useless knowledge." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.
I didn’t expect that Ziying was actually interested in sailing. That’s good. While he’s still young, he can go out and explore more in the future.
"Ziying will remember what your aunt said." Ziying nodded heavily and was still happy talking to his aunt.
"So good." She raised her hand and rubbed Ziying's head. This boy is almost as tall as her. He grows so fast.
The two of them were talking quite loudly, which naturally attracted other people's attention.
There are many people reading books on the sixth floor, and many of them are descendants of nobles from Xianyang.
Naturally, some of these people recognized Zhao Qingrui and knelt down and bowed to him.
"Greetings to His Majesty, long live His Majesty." As those kneeling people spoke, the others were frightened and quickly followed suit and bowed.
A large group of people knelt down. Jia Henian, who was standing next to Zhao Qingrui, was completely stunned. Is this His Majesty?
He is so bold as to flirt with Your Majesty. I am going to die.
He hurriedly and nervously bowed, and his mind went through what happened after meeting His Majesty just now. Wow, he has overstepped a lot. Will he be dragged out and beheaded or torn apart by five horses?
Why did His Majesty suddenly come out on a secret visit? If he had known this, he would not have approached girls casually.
No, this bad habit must be corrected, otherwise I will get into trouble again in the future.
"Everyone, please stand up. I just came out for a stroll today." Zhao Qingrui felt a little annoyed that his identity was exposed in front of so many people with such a grand ceremony. He should have spoken more quietly when talking to Ziying just now.
