Fang Jinshu quickly waved her hand.

"Of course not, Master Wang's willingness to marry Miss Sun to me is my three lives of good fortune."

That's all.

He said just one word, which immediately hung the little girl's heart up, her expression couldn't be more nervous.

“I'm simply much older than Miss Sun, and besides medicine, I have no other talents. I have neither fame nor fortune, and I'm afraid I wouldn't be a suitable match for Miss Sun.”

Wang Xiaqin still thought he would say something hurtful, but it turned out that he wasn't rejecting her, just being insecure.

Before Lord Wang could even speak, she hurriedly said.

"I don't mind that you're older than me. With no fame or power to worry about, what do we have to fear My grandfather and father are both important officials. With their support, you won't even have trouble getting a position."

Wang DaRen heard this and his face darkened. This girl, how dare she speak so freely

The imperial court was very particular about who they employed. If it wasn't through the civil service examination or hereditary succession, then one could only obtain an official position by being appointed by His Majesty. She thought getting a position was as easy as plucking some weeds by the roadside

However, Wang also noticed Fang Yu's expression. Hearing the word "official," his eyes lit up visibly.

Originally, Wang had a very good impression of the other party. He thought he was an honest man with superb medical skills. There was a sense of purity about him that seemed to transcend the mundane world.

Now he saw that what he perceived in the past few days was quite different. It seemed Fang Yu's seemingly indifferent attitude wasn't the case at all. He clearly had a thirst for power.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable, Wang Daren still concealed it very well. Thinking about it from another angle, having desires is a good thing, as these people are easier to control.

"Hee hee, did you hear that It seems my granddaughter is determined to marry you."

"Fangyu, if I agree to recommend you for an official position in the future, would you be willing to marry into the Wang family"

Fang Jinshu was very excited. She hadn't dared to look at Wang Xiaqin before, but now she turned her gaze to her, making eye contact with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, Miss, for not despising me. In this case, I wouldn't dare refuse the kindness of both sir and lady."

"I, I am willing."

Hearing this, Ah Sheng closed his eyes. It was over.

In order to save him, Jinxiu had to risk her own reputation. Luckily, she was disguised as a man. If some powerful family's son had taken a liking to her, Zong Yu would have led his men and destroyed the Western Xia royal family without hesitation.

Asheng didn't think his idea was exaggerated at all; Zongyu could really pull it off.

Fang Jinshi agreed to marry into the Wang family. The most delighted people in the Wang family were this grandfather and grandson. Wang Xiaqin had always thought that Fang Shenyi looked down on her, as he hadn't shown any interest in her for so many days.

To my surprise, he actually agreed in the end.

As soon as she thought of him marrying her out of a promise made to his grandfather for his career, Wang Xiaqin's heart felt a little bitter again.

But no matter what, the person finally stayed. Relationships can be cultivated gradually, she didn't believe that if she spent time with him every day and treated him well, he wouldn't develop any feelings for her over time.

One day, Fangyu will definitely fall in love with her!

The Wang family immediately began happily preparing for the wedding. As for restoring Lord Wang's youth, he himself proposed to postpone it until after the marriage.

To avoid the heavy price that fame might demand, and lest his granddaughter would feel heartbroken, delaying their marriage.

This marriage didn't need to be rushed, it was Fang Jinshu who proposed it. Since the engagement was already set, it would be better to make it official sooner and become a family. That way, he could also officially come to Wang's house to help take care of his health.

In Lord Wang's view, this boy just couldn't wait to climb up the social ladder by using their Wang family.

But no matter what, the Wang family still had a need for him, so Lord Wang eventually agreed and hastened the marriage.

Wang Xiaqin was naturally very satisfied with this result.

The only person who opposed the marriage was one.

This was the first time Ah Sheng felt so helpless, he kept following Fang Jinxiu and trying to persuade her.

"I disagree!"

"Sister Jinxiu, do we really have to go this far For the sake of entering the court, you're willing to marry Wang Xiaqin in disguise as a man. Have you thought about what you'll do after the marriage"

What she wants is a man, and you're not. She's looking for someone to have children with, can you do that

Fang Jinxiu still had the mood to joke with him, she blinked and said.

"I can."

"The treasure is mine, I gave birth to it."

A Sheng was going crazy.

"Sister Jinxiu! I don't want you to do this for me, it's too dangerous for you!"

"If the royal family found out your true identity, they would definitely not let you go."

"Isn't it about entering the Xixia court At worst, we can wait a few more months. I will take the imperial examination next spring, and as long as I pass, I can enter the court as an official."

Fang Jinshu laughed derisively and patted A Sheng's shoulder.

"It's not that I look down on you, but when you were in the palace, didn't you have teachers who instructed you in systematic courses"

"But I've been learning to read and write since I was a child," A Sheng shook his head helplessly, "How difficult could it be to write an article"

Fang Jinxiu didn't argue with him about this issue, she just continued.

"Even if your knowledge in this area passes, as you said, we can wait another half year. Originally, my plan wasn't something that could be accomplished overnight."

"Six months later, you'll graduate high school and successfully obtain your official position."

Even if one were to become the top scholar, they would start as a low-ranking official of the sixth or seventh rank. After a year, they would be sent to a county as magistrate to accumulate achievements.

"Those who don't deliver will be retained, year after year. Three years become six, and then you wonder how many more years the frontier can withstand these battles Don't even talk about three years; given Da Xi's current state, if it can last a single year that would be considered good fortune."

“By the time you accumulate enough achievements to return to the capital, at most you'll only be promoted one rank, from sixth or seventh rank to fifth or sixth. It’s only when your official title reaches third rank or above that you might have access to the most core secret matters of the Xixia court. How many years will I have to wait for you”

Fang Jinshu's words left Asheng speechless.

And this is still under the best circumstances. If one doesn't rank in the top three of the civil service examinations, and there's no influential family to help, the path to promotion will be even longer and more difficult.

"Do you still think your idea is reliable"

"Marrying Miss Wang is the quickest solution. To accomplish great things, you have to be willing to take risks. I'm not afraid, so why are you"

Asheng didn't dare to speak.

He was afraid that Fang Jinshu might have an accident in Xixia, and Zong Yu, that madman, didn't know what kind of shocking and outrageous things he could do.

"Alright, I concede. Since you've made up your mind, I'll go along with it."

"Also," Fang Jinshu nodded, "I intend to tell Wang about your identity."

As for this, A Sheng had already thought of it. Since she dragged the Wang family down with her, what she was going to do next would certainly not escape Wang Qi Xian's eyes. It might as well be better to come clean in advance and drag him along.

"We will use Wang Qi first to disrupt Xixia's government, so that you have the opportunity to rise to power."a bite of the pastry and swallowed.Yùnbǎo waited a while to see that he was truly unharmed.
