She quickly stepped forward to help Ji Zhiheng: "Let's talk it over. The prince is here. Let's go in and talk."
Zhonglizhou also nodded: "Let's go in and talk."
Ji Zhiheng didn't argue. He stood up with the help of Ji Changying and went into the Ji family together.
As soon as he sat down, Ji Changying asked him in confusion: "Uncle Heng, why are you doing this?"
A good scholar suddenly has to join the army, and the key point is that he is not at the age to be young and energetic.
"I made this decision after careful consideration. Witnessing my father's tragic death in front of me is beyond comprehension! I'd be unworthy of being a son if I couldn't avenge him. Even though that barbarian is dead, there are still millions of other barbarians alive!"
"My father always wanted to revive the Ji family. Now that he's gone, my family is exiled here. There's no hope for the imperial examinations, so I can only try my luck by joining the army."
"I know I'm not as strong as others as a scholar, but I've been training myself during this time. As long as you give me time, I believe I'm no worse than others!"
Ji Zhiheng spoke sincerely and looked at Zhong Lizhou with longing in his eyes.
When he looked at Ji Changying, his eyes were filled with indescribable sadness.
Ji Hu was silent.
If it were in the past, he might have been able to give it a try, but now that he has lost an arm, it is no longer possible.
Ji Changying also fell silent. She didn't expect that the old patriarch's matter would have such a great impact on Ji Zhiheng.
After studying for more than 20 years, I suddenly have to overturn everything I have done before and start over again by taking a different path. This requires not only courage, but also extraordinary determination.
Zhong Lizhou said calmly, "Your age doesn't really mean you have an advantage in the military camp. You were a scholar before, so even if you joined the military camp, you wouldn't be able to keep up with the intensity of the others' training. Military merit isn't easy to earn, so I'm afraid your chances are slim."
"I know! But as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I'm willing to give it a try!"
Ji Zhiheng stood up excitedly and looked at Zhong Lizhou with a determined look: "As long as the prince is willing to give me a chance, I'm willing to do it even if it means being a cook!"
Zhongli Zhou was shocked.
Scholars were respected everywhere in the Dali Dynasty and their status was higher than that of common people. Even nobles would be more friendly when facing scholars.
At this moment, there was a scholar who was willing to lower himself and join the military camp.
He was filled with awe and said, "Since you think so highly of it, why not give it a try?"
Ji Hu's face was full of seriousness: "Zhiheng! This is a serious matter. I think you should discuss it with the clan before making a decision!"
"Don't worry, I will get the clan's approval." After getting Zhonglizhou's approval, Ji Zhiheng seemed to have put down a burden, and even a smile appeared on his tense face.
Ji Hu was worried. He always felt that it was a pity for a scholar like Ji Zhiheng to join the army. If possible, he would rather go in his place.
pity···
He glanced at his empty left arm with a hint of disgust in his eyes.
He is now just a useless person. He is despised when he goes out to work, so how can he stand up for others?
"This is indeed no small matter. Uncle Heng should calm down and discuss it with his family and clan before making a decision. After all, the prince can't escape from here."
No one could make a decision for him about this matter, Ji Changying could only advise him to think it over carefully.
"There's no rush. This time I brought a list written by Captain Kou himself. We'll have to question each of the people on it one by one. I'll stay here for a few more days and then take them all away."
Zhongli Zhou considerately said that there was still plenty of time.
Ji Zhiheng smiled confidently after hearing this: "As long as there is no problem here, it's fine."
Ji Hu and he went out one after another. On the way, they were still discussing how to talk to the people in the tribe.
"I'll be here for three days at most. If you have time, please contact the grain merchant and ask him. If he doesn't work, I'll have to think of other ways."
Zhonglizhou saw that everyone had left, and it would not be appropriate for him and his men to stay at the Ji family, so he gave some instructions and stood up to leave.
Ji Changying thought for a moment and said, "Three days is almost up. I'll let you know when I have any news."
As for how to contact the other party, Zhonglizhou did not ask in detail, nor did he force Ji Changying to hand over the other party's contact information.
As a superior, he only needs to know the final result. As for the process, that is not something he needs to consider.
What's more, everyone has their own private affairs, and even he can't interfere too much, so as not to annoy others.
After sending the people away, Ji Changying returned to her room and slipped into the space.
On the cleared space, there were piles of grain moved from the county government office, as well as food and weapons from Wuhe Mountain, and boxes of gold and silver that were found when the black dog was discovered. They were now placed in front of Ji Changying.
She looked at these things and muttered to herself: "Time to clean up some."
After all, the space also produces food. Because of these things, the food she planted in the space has not been harvested for half a year.
She also wanted to see which type of grains were better to grow, the modified grains in the space or the native grains.
Looking at the black dog lying on the gold and silver and rubbing the box intoxicatedly, Ji Changying frowned and walked over.
She had seen the black dog like this more than once, it was really weird.
She lifted the black dog up by its tail and said, "You are just a monkey, why are you always holding gold and silver and sucking..."
When she said this, she was stunned for a moment, frowned and looked at the box of gold.
The black dog was as soft as a noodle, and didn't react at all when Ji Changying held it in her hand and shook it.
Ji Changying put it on his shoulder, took out a piece of gold and put it in his arms, intending to let Mr. Huang examine it later.
Could there really be something addictive in this gold that makes the monkey addicted?
“Chirp!”
The black dog saw Ji Changying holding a piece of gold and reached out to grab it.
Seeing that it was like this, Ji Changying couldn't possibly give it to it, so he quickly threw it out of the space.
She then picked up the sickle, bent down to harvest, and controlled her mental power to remove the ears and shells.
This space is good in every way, except that she has to do everything by herself, which is really not a human way to do things!
Although this was very tiring, Ji Changying also clearly felt that his mental strength had increased a little.
She was busy until the black dog outside barked a warning, then she slipped out of the space.
As soon as she came out, she heard a knock on the door. Ji Fengshou couldn't wait to open the door and walked in without waiting for her response: "I heard that your uncle Heng came to join the army?"
"Well, you know?"
"Of course I don't know! It's all going crazy now! Guess what?"
Ji Fengshou's face was full of gossip and mystery.
Ji Changying cooperated with a look of curiosity on her face: "What's going on?"
Ji Fengshou slapped his thigh and said, "When he told me the story, I thought there would be opposition, but unexpectedly, several people from our Ji family expressed their desire to go together!"
Changying had never expected this development: "Huh? Are they all going?"
