Lian Musu looked at him encouragingly, "Brother Liang, feel free to speak your mind. I've received much help from you and hope to be of assistance in return. Otherwise, I would feel uneasy."
Is that so?
Liang Qi, seeing the sincerity and encouragement in Lian Musu's eyes, finally mustered the courage to voice a doubt that had always been in his mind, "Brother Lian, why do you wish to take the civil service examination?"
Scholars pursue a career in the civil service to stand out, but is it merely to stand out? What beyond that?
In the past two days, he had spent a long time wondering why he was taking the civil service examination, besides doing it for his grandfather, for what purpose was he doing it.
Lian Musu was surprised and immediately saw the confusion in Liang Qi's eyes.
To ask such a question is indeed not easy; Brother Liang must be a person with sentiment, not wanting to be like the others.
