Bian Guan said: "Then how many years will it take for my son to take the imperial examination?"
Su You said: "Actually, the right class is pretty good too. Since you like it, it's not impossible."
"There are at least three ways to go. The first is to pursue weapons research and development, and the second is to become a military staff officer. If you really want to lead troops, you have to stay away from the center. You can go to the South and North to lead naval divisions."
Bian Guan was a little confused: "Father, isn't he disappointed that I chose the right class?"
Su You smiled: "Why should I be disappointed? Not only am I not disappointed, I even feel that you have fulfilled my dream for me."
"There are already many civil servants in the Song Dynasty who can handle military affairs on their behalf, such as Wang Xueshi and Governor Zhang. What I hope even more is that there will be more military ministers in the Song Dynasty who can handle civil affairs on their behalf. For example, the Protector of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty, Heishui
Protector-General, a military official with both civil and military skills like the Grand Manager of Shannan Road."
"Of course, such an official position is impossible to appear in a well-established land, but at the beginning of development, it is completely possible."
"For example, the cities of Wenhua, Jiafu, and Yushu will be established this time."
Bian Guan said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to do it for a while. If I want to join the right class, I want to go to the Military Academy for further study first."
Su You said: "Yes, your Majesty and the Queen Mother may not agree, but I can apply to the Queen Mother to bring a copy of the teaching materials to my home. Self-study is always possible."
Bian Guan asked: "Those textbooks were not revised by my father himself? Do you still need to apply?"
Su You sneered: "You still don't know the depth. Wang Gong, Wang Dingguo, ah, it was Da Su who wrote the poem "My peace of mind is in my hometown" for his concubine. Back then, he was impeached and demoted by the imperial censor for borrowing military documents for outsiders."
"There was also a man who was demoted because he wrote test questions rather than from the New Meanings of the Three Classics."
"No matter how unreasonable this system is, you can't violate it until it is abolished. This is called a rule, do you understand?"
Bian Guo nodded: "I understand."
"Do you really understand?"
"I really understand. Now my son is still assigned to be a prisoner. From tomorrow on, I will go on errands in the morning and accompany His Majesty on his homework in the afternoon."
Su You couldn't help but feel that his son had grown up again: "I really understand... By the way, there is one more thing."
"Father, do whatever you tell me."
"The late Emperor has done a great job regarding Guan'er. Your marriage will be postponed for one year."
Bian Guan's face turned red: "Son, my son is not in a hurry..."
"It's not a matter of urgency. If you make a promise, you must abide by your promise. What I mean is to get engaged first, go through half of the formalities, and then get married a year later. How about that?"
Bian Guan couldn't help but murmured: "I...all obey my father's orders..."
Su You solemnly said: "Guan'er helped me write "Ethics" this year, which shows that she has made great progress in knowledge in the past few years, and she is a good match for you. You must not let her down, do you understand?"
"I didn't... never thought about it..."
Su You rolled his eyes: "Next, think carefully about how to deal with your mother and your troubled brother..."
When the carriage arrived home, the two got out of the car. When the colander who was picking beans in the yard saw his brother, he immediately ran over and hugged the flat can: "Brother, I miss you so much! My father and mother both said they would beat me."
You, I won’t let you!”
"Hey, you two-faced guy!" Su You was so angry that he fell back and threw the bag of frosted balls on his hand to him: "Your brother brought this to you, take it and eat it."
Flat Pot picked up the colander and said, "Your colander is heavy enough."
Colander kicked his legs: "I am an adult, you can't hug me anymore!"
"Okay, okay..." Bian Gu put the colander on the ground: "Eat the jelly beans first, and I'll go see my mother."
The colander said: "I'm going to cry first. Brother, if you go in later, my mother won't be able to beat you!"
"Colander!" Su You was really angry: "This is unreasonable. When did you become so treacherous?! Stand still!"
The colander finally stopped, and Ping Guan smiled, touched his head, and went into the inner courtyard.
After Su You educated Colander outside for a long time and made him realize the mistake of using his cuteness to deceive adults, he took him and quietly sneaked into the inner courtyard to find out the news.
After entering the inner courtyard, I found that there was no chaos as expected, and my son was vividly explaining to Shi Wei what happened on February 28th.
Unlocking locks, taking guns, stealing cannons, and deterring intruders... Well, it is very consistent with Shi Wei's views and methods as a mother-in-law.
Shi Wei actually lost half of her anger when she saw her son's heroic military uniform. When she saw clearly that the copper flower on the collar badge was the title of Duwei, the remaining half was gone.
The Duwei is a military attaché of the new army who can command thousands of troops. Tong Guan had this military rank when he went to the west to serve.
Seeing her son's strong muscles and heroic spirit, Shi Wei was very happy: "This is the style of a child from a general family! But if you change to the right class, does your father object?"
Bian Guan said: "This was appointed by the late emperor himself. Even if my father is dissatisfied, he probably only hides it in his heart and dare not show it."
Shi Wei said: "Actually, it's better to join the right class. Look at your father's civil servant friends. How many of them are reliable? He might be demoted one day."
"When I join the right class, there are too many martial arts families who have friendship with our Shi family. And as a distinguished noble, I will be the same as the royal family and will be prosperous. I won't be able to suffer easily."
"If we can fight again, like Cao Anmin and Li Chunyuan..."
Su You coughed slightly at the door, then opened the door, and saw Shi Wei sitting upright in the hall, holding a ruler in his hand, and seriously teaching Bian Guan: "If you don't know how to grow in knowledge, you will know how to get into trouble. You are really brave!"
"This is great. The late Emperor transferred you to the right class. It's a pity that so many books and knowledge of the Su family are useless! Do you know your mistake?"
Bian Guo bowed his head politely: "My son realizes his mistake."
Shi Wei put the ruler into the vase next to her to check the feather duster: "I've been beaten, but now it's a done deal and there's no way to recover it. From now on, I'll do my best for the officials and try to get ahead in the right class."
Bian Gu stood at attention: "Yes! I will definitely live up to my mother's request!"
Shi Wei said: "Go and see Guan'er and comfort her. You have been abroad for a year and Guan'er is very worried. If you dare to go without telling me next time...you will be taught a lesson!"
After saying that, he looked at Su You: "Husband, how about you teach me a lesson?"
Su You secretly rolled his eyes, Wei'er, your acting skills are really bad.
Pretending to sigh, he sat next to Shi Wei: "No matter whether you are on the left or right, you are all serving the Emperor Song Dynasty. My father has no other requirements for you. No matter what assignment you are assigned in the future, you must do it well and become a
People who are useful to the Song Dynasty, do you understand?"
Bian Guo nodded: "I understand, father."
Su You closed his eyes and waved, as if he was out of sight and out of mind: "Go ahead, go ahead...go ahead and change this skin, it won't be too hot..."
After Bian Gu left with the colander, Shi Wei comforted Su You: "Brother Xiaoyou, I think Bian Gu is suitable for the right class. Look at his figure in military uniform and his air..."
Su You said: "Fortunately, you have been supervising this kid to practice martial arts since he was a child. If he didn't have this foundation, I think he would have been in trouble at sea last year."
Shi Wei pressed her hand on the back of Su You's hand: "Brother Xiaoyou, let me ask you a favor for Bian Guan."
Su You smiled: "Isn't he my son? Why do you ask for your favor?"
Shi Wei said: "If Bian Guan doesn't become a civil servant, does that mean he has no future in the Su family?"
Su You also pressed his hand on the back of Shi Wei's hand: "Weier, you are thinking too much. The Su family has never been interested in being an official. Besides, the weird system of the Song Dynasty. Speaking of Wang Shen, Zhang Dunli, Han Jiayan, etc.
At that time, even Chen Yaozi, the number one scholar of the Song Dynasty, was a military official; but Xue Xiang, Wang Shao, Yu Jing, Tao Bi, Zhao Man, Xiong Ben, Zhang Qi, who commanded the military and fought against the barbarians, were just ordinary people.
A scholar of scriptures."
Shi Wei smiled: "Brother Xiaoyou, so are you! A civil servant who can fight."
Su You couldn't help but laugh: "You are so beautiful as Xu Gong, how can I know how to fight? So I told Bian Guan that whether you want to be civilized or military, it depends on the needs of the country. Being civilized or military is to cultivate your own quality. This
I'm actually not as good as him."
After saying that, he stood up and bowed to Shi Wei Zheng'er: "Thank you, madam, for helping my Su family change their poor and conceited temperament."
"Oh, you're talking nonsense again!" Even though Shi Wei and Su You were an old couple, they couldn't help talking such nonsense, and couldn't help but blush.
Su You said: "My wife taught me a lesson just now, and she was quite majestic. I am going to cook some new dishes for you now, as a token of appreciation for your hard work in running the house and training your son."
