I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 97

The matter of the little Yao family was settled satisfactorily, but the old lady Yao was not reconciled, and muttered: "Eldest nephew, your surname is Yao, you see that the lotus has been beaten like this, and you are all lame, how about we ask Zhan's second son to ask for money? already?"

"Uncle Village Zheng, we don't have many people here today, why don't we call everyone in the village tomorrow!" Brother Yao accompanied him with a smiling face, that was 150 taels of silver!

Zhan's family has only two households. Counting old man Zhan and old lady Zhan, the family can get 50 taels of silver. Even if Zhan's second son wants to divorce his wife, he has to give Lotus 25 taels of silver.

It happened that Yao Cun could not easily settle the matter peacefully. This would be irritated by Mrs. Yao and a few others, pointing to Zhan Feiyu under the persimmon tree, "That's the little prodigy that the county masters value, and the lotus dares to falsely accuse him in the lobby. She, believe it or not, you angered her, let alone money, put your whole family in prison!"

After all, Yao Hehua is also surnamed Yao, Zhan Feiyu really wants to take revenge, and it is possible to anger Mrs. Yao and the others, or even the entire Yaojia Village!
Mrs. Yao opened her mouth, and the two brothers of the Yao family were also cowardly, not to mention the county master, even the yamen's arresting fast, they would not dare to offend them.

"Okay, go back to me, and the lotus flower will stay in Jinlin Village!" Yao Cunzheng said with a final word, and winked at several juniors from Yaojia Village.

Several people immediately stepped forward and grabbed the two unwilling Yao family brothers, and the two no. 30 left just like that.

Under the persimmon tree, Mr. Zhan picked up Zhan Feiyu and asked loudly, "Have you eaten the rice cake I brought you last time? If you like it, the third uncle will buy it for you next time."

Zhan Feiyu, who was placed on the ground, raised his head and smiled, "I have eaten, thank you third uncle."

Zhan Feiyu likes to eat rice cakes. In the past, when the second son of Zhan was driving an ox cart, he would also bring small snacks back, but he never had rice cakes, and he brought maltose and candied haws that Dalang Saburo likes to eat.

"By the way, third uncle, is the wharf hard? Do you want to do something else?" Zhan Feiyu didn't dare to say that he had great skills, but it was still possible to find a light work for the third Zhan.

The third Zhan glanced at Gu Qingzhou and was surprised that he, a Yaojia Village person, didn't leave.

Hearing what Zhan Feiyu said, the third Zhan laughed, "No, you third uncle, I am now a little steward at the dock, relaxed and comfortable."

The wharf has always been a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, but Ma Zhaokuai went to say hello, Zhan Laosan himself is a forthright and righteous character, and the goods of these few merchants were handed over to him.

Mr. Zhan arranged for an ox cart to pull the goods for delivery, and his own ox cart was also leased to two men carrying large bags at the dock.

After a month, Zhan's third child can also earn one or two taels of silver. The key is that he doesn't need to work hard, he can just sit under the shack and command the command, and wait until the evening to drive the ox cart back, not to mention being more at ease.

Looking at the happy third Zhan, Zhan Feiyu also knew his temperament, "Okay, third uncle, you are happy."

"Haha, the third uncle will wait for you to pass the exam and get all the fame." Zhan Laosan said sternly, not at all ashamed.

He had already thought about it for a long time, Xiaoyu now has the reputation of a child prodigy, and he can be a small butler at the dock.When Xiaoyu becomes a scholar in the future, he will be able to be a big manager, and he doesn't want to do anything too mind-blowing.

After leaving the old house, Gu Qingzhou looked at Zhan Feiyu who was in a good mood, "I'm not big, but I have a lot of hearts."

"Being awarded prizes is just to gain a good reputation." Zhan Feiyu smiled cheekily and blinked stubbornly, "By the way, give my former second uncle a block."

In the old house, apart from Erlang Saburo and Xiao Niuniu, Zhan Feiyu is also close to Zhan's third son, and he keeps calling him third uncle even if he adopts it.

Looking at the little girl who can reach his waist, Gu Qingzhou was silent for a while, "Hypocritical."

Placing Xiao Yao in the village will not cause any trouble for Zhan Feiyu, but will make the villagers think that she is kind-hearted and tolerant, but the truth is not to repay grievances with virtue, but to disgust Zhan's second child.

"That is, who wants to make it difficult for me, I make it difficult for his whole family!" Zhan Feiyu said lightly, and Xiao Fangbu walked briskly, "The village entrance is here, Uncle Gu, it's a good journey. "

Gu Qingzhou's footsteps stopped, why does this sound like a curse.

……

After the county school resumed classes, Zhan Feiyu didn't see Gu Dashu, Zhang Zhifu, or even Yin Wuyan, as if these people had never appeared in Shangsi County.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Uncle Hu hurriedly stopped the bullock cart, and he didn't care about scolding anyone. He turned around and asked, "Xiaoyu, are you alright?"

Zhan Feiyu stuck his head out of the carport, "Uncle Hu, I'm fine, what's wrong?"

After the bullock cart was stopped, a man in his fifties, wearing a dark purple round-neck robe, with a mustache on his slender face, walked over arrogantly, "Miss Zhan, there is Talk to you about a business, please."

"Don't go!" Zhan Feiyu replied neatly and looked around calmly, not knowing if the Dark Dragon Guard was here or not.

The same housekeeper didn't expect Zhan Feiyu to be big or small, with an angry moustache, and scolded: "Don't toast, don't eat or punish! Some people are not something you can offend!"

Zhan Feiyu was still sitting on the ox cart, raised his eyebrows, and turned back arrogantly, "Look at the man you are wearing, you look like a dog, but you're just a servant, and the dog slave dares to yell at me. No one in Si County dares to talk to me like this! I am a child prodigy praised by the county magistrate!"

Uncle Hu stared blankly at the arrogant Zhan Feiyu with his chin up, and wanted to rub his eyes. Is this still the well-behaved and polite little fish?

The manner of speaking with his nostrils upside-down is like those young ladies who were seen in the county.

Being called a dog!The first Buddha, who was also angry with the housekeeper, came out of his body, the second Buddha ascended to heaven, and pointed at Zhan Feiyu angrily with one hand, "Do you know who I am?"

Leaning back, avoiding the splashing spit, Zhan Feiyu glared, "I don't care who you are! The only thing that is inferior is reading! You, a slave, dare to play hard with a noble scholar, I see you It's a brain disease! Uncle Hu, let's go, don't talk to fools."

"You..." The same housekeeper has always been majestic in Nanxuan Mansion, not to mention Shangsi County, and he would roar angrily, "I nodded and bowed when I saw Xiucai, you dare to talk to me when you are white. Who gave you the guts!"

Zhan Feiyu's crisp rebuttal was even sharper, "Yo, how dare a slave dare to humiliate Master Juren? Whose dog slave are you? I'll go to the county magistrate now!"

Seeing that Uncle Hu picked up the whip and was about to drive the ox cart away, the mad fellow butler grabbed the whip and slapped Zhan Feiyu in the face.

Zhan Feiyu was ready to jump off the ox cart, but suddenly, the movement of getting up stopped again.

Zhan Feiyu's face was dumbfounded, as if he was frightened.

"Ah!" A scream rang out, and the whip in Tong's butler's hand fell to the ground with a snap, while he squatted down with his back pain in his hands, and at first glance it seemed that his waist was twisted.

"You dare to hit me?" Zhan Fei cried out in a sullen voice, turned around and took out the inkstone from the bookcase, and smashed it directly at the head of the same housekeeper under the shocked eyes of everyone.

Clang!The inkstone fell to the ground, but it didn't break.

"You..." The fellow housekeeper who was squatting on the ground looked up at Zhan Feiyu, rolled his eyes and passed out on the ground, his forehead was smashed by the inkstone, and blood flowed out.

"Xiaoyu...this..." Uncle Hu was completely stunned. From grabbing the whip with the housekeeper to Zhan Feiyu smashing people, he didn't respond.

After jumping off the carriage, Zhan Feiyu picked up the inkstone and squatted down again.

Just when everyone thought she was checking on her co-housekeeper's injury, Zhan Feiyu pulled up her co-housekeeper's robe and carefully wiped the inkstone clean.

Long Weirao in the dark had a numb face all the year round, and he couldn't help twitching the corners of his eyes. The little girl's smashing posture is very skilled.

"Uncle Hu, don't worry, people are not dead." Zhan Feiyu turned around and smiled, there was no cruelty when he smashed people, "Uncle Hu, go and call for the catch, I'll be waiting here."

Hearing that no one died, Uncle Hu breathed a sigh of relief, but he was worried that it would be dangerous to leave Zhan Feiyu behind.

"Don't worry." Zhan Feiyu raised the inkstone in his hand like a little devil, "It's a big deal, I'll smash it again."

"That's good." Uncle Hu also felt that this matter needed to be dealt with by officials. He glanced at Zhan Feiyu, who was completely unaware of his fear, and quickly ran to the market.

Not far away, the little servant who was driving the carriage wanted to come over, but stopped again, not knowing whether it was because he was afraid of the "weapon" in Zhan Feiyu's hands, or because of her identity, after all, this road only leads to the county school.

When Zhao Zhukuai, who was patrolling the street, heard that someone dared to attack Zhan Feiyu, he immediately ran over with the two of them, "Xiaoyu, you're fine..."

Looking at the housekeeper who had just woken up on the ground and was knocked unconscious by Zhan Feiyu's inkstone, Zhao Zhukuai's mouth twitched, the little girl was so cruel.

The same butler had a wound on his left and right foreheads, and his face was covered in blood. At first glance, it looked like a murder scene.

"Zhao Zhaozhao, you are here." Zhan Feiyu greeted with a smile, then squatted down to wipe the inkstone, and said without raising his head: "Don't worry, I'm measured, I'm just bleeding at most, I won't die."

"Don't blame Xiaoyu, he grabbed the whip and almost hit Xiaoyu in the face." Uncle Hu said quickly.

Zhan Feiyu nodded obediently, stood up and said angrily: "I suspect that he was sent by someone who is jealous of my talent and wants to ruin my face! Don't let me study the imperial examination!"

Zhao Zhukuai asked his companions to capture the driver, and looked down at his fellow housekeeper, who had completely fainted, "Could I have made a mistake? Usually, a local ruffian would do such a thing."

Although the housekeeper's face was covered with blood, his hands were white, and there were no calluses on his palms. At first glance, he had been pampered for many years. Besides, this satin robe was obviously not bad for money.

"Don't worry about it wrong, he is a slave who dares to slap me in the face, I should be thankful that he didn't kill him." Zhan Feiyu snorted twice, and said righteously: "Zhao Zhukuai, I will go with you. The county government sees the county magistrate Chen."

After a while.

County Office Study.

After listening to Zhao Zhaokuai's words, Chen Weibin frowned, "The driver said this person is from Nanxuan Mansion?"

"Yes, I went to Taifu Restaurant yesterday afternoon and booked two rooms. The driver was hired by the restaurant's second assistant and was waiting outside the county school." Zhao Zhukuai invited Dr. Xu from Ji Shitang, but he was smashed. Twice, the man was still awake, so he could only interrogate the coachman first.

The county magistrate Chen waved his hand for Zhao Zhao to step back, and said again, "Lianqing, what do you think?"

Sitting at the bottom right is Bai Lianqing, an adviser to the county magistrate. The two used to be classmates. Back then, he was accidentally scalded on the face and could not take the imperial examination, so he became the magistrate Chen's staff.

"I'm afraid it's because of what Zhao Jiaoyu said before." Bai Lianqing was also curious about what Zhan Feiyu said to Zhao Jiaoyu, which led Zhao Jiaoyu to even bypass the county magistrate of Chen and Zhang Zhifu, and through him he had already sent an official. His teacher, the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Officials who was once ranked third rank, gave the court an account.

However, Zhao Jiaoyu also came to apologize in private, only that he had no choice but to do this because of the seriousness of the matter.

"Sir, why don't you ask Zhan Feiyu to come and talk." Bai Lianqing said with a smile.

Since the Nanxuan Mansion has come, and the little girl's intelligence is close to that of a demon, she must have revealed a little inside information. After all, the adults have a kindness to her.

After Zhan Feiyu was brought into the study by the servant, he saluted the county magistrate, "The student has caused trouble for the adults again."

Magistrate Chen looked at Zhan Feiyu, who was apologizing to Chen Ken. Although she was bookish, she was still a childish little girl. Magistrate Chen couldn't imagine how Zhan Feiyu used an inkstone to smash someone's face with blood.

"Xiaoyu, do you know the identity of the other party?" County magistrate Chen cut to the chase.

Zhan Feiyu shook his head, "He was stunned by me before he could reveal his identity, but he said that all the scholars nodded and bowed to him, so arrogant and domineering, the master behind him is definitely a court official."

If it was a businessman, no matter how rich he was, he would not dare to humiliate scholars or raise people.

The magistrate of Chen was the first to exclude Zhang Zhifu. Mr. Zhang was an honest and honest official, and the most important rules were.

"Zhan Xiaomengtong, did you smash someone unconscious on purpose? It's not easy for him to do anything after revealing his identity." As soon as Bai Lianqing said this, he saw Zhan Feiyu's eyes widen suddenly, a pair of " The embarrassment after being exposed.

Bai Lianqing was amused by her appearance, and couldn't help laughing, "Sir, it seems that Zhan Xiaomengtong already knows the origin of the other party."

In essence, Chen Weibin is a serious and old-fashioned scholar. He doesn't want to believe that Zhan Feiyu is so cunning and rude, but seeing her guilty little appearance, Chen Weibin suddenly has a headache.

"Master, I guess he is the housekeeper of Master Tongzhitong in Nanxuan Mansion." Zhan Feiyu had an extremely innocent little fat face, and those who didn't know were innocent. Besides, she was an eight-year-old girl, of the fifth grade. Tongzhi adults have the nerve to care about her?
Chen Weibin and Bai Lianqing were both dumbfounded. They stared at Zhan Feiyu who was calm and composed. Well, in terms of courage, the two of them are definitely not as good as an eight-year-old girl.
"Sir, it is reasonable to say that the prefect of Zhang came to me, but the prefect of Zhang did not appear, and it was not Lord Tong, but the housekeeper of his house. I guess Lord Tong was selfish and wanted to avoid Lord Zhang. , I knocked people unconscious and offended Master Tong, but Zhang Zhifu will definitely protect me."

Zhan Feiyu was fearless, and besides, the same housekeeper dared to use a whip to slap her in the face, even if she didn't study the imperial examinations, her face would be ruined as a little girl, and it would be merciful to smash someone with an inkstone.

Even if she went to the Golden Palace, Zhan Feiyu was not afraid, she was in charge!

Magistrate Chen finally recovered from his shock. If he hadn't understood Zhan Feiyu, he would have thought the little girl was talking big!But thinking that Zhao Jiaoyu bypassed himself and Zhang Zhifu to give the court a discount, the county magistrate Chen had to believe it.

"My lord is diligent in politics and loves the people, and I believe that I will be able to rise up in the near future." Finally, Zhan Feiyu left a sentence and left.

In the study, the county magistrate Chen really couldn't figure out what happened to Zhan Feiyu and Zhao Jiaoyu, and it must be no small matter that the prefect of Zhang was alerted.

"Sir, Zhang Zhifu and Tongtong know that they are at odds." Bai Lianqing couldn't help reminding.

"I understand." Zhan Feiyu knew the truth, but how could Magistrate Chen not understand that she stunned the people in the same house and could get the protection of Zhang Zhifu.

In the same way, if the magistrate of Chen favors Zhan Feiyu, he will stand on Zhang Zhifu's side and must be the enemy of the same adults, but this is also a good opportunity for him to show his loyalty to Zhang Zhifu.

After a moment of silence, Magistrate Chen couldn't help but say, "Lianqing, what does Zhan Feiyu mean?"

It's no wonder that Magistrate Chen couldn't calm down. He has been in Shangsi County for seven years, but there is a teacher Liu Jian on it, and Chen Weibin should not expect to be promoted in his life.

His ambitions, his aspirations, will one day be exhausted, leaving only regrets and helplessness.

Bai Lianqing also didn't know what happened to Zhan Feiyu and Zhao Jiaoyu, but he was able to guess, "It must be a major event for the country and the people to be able to alert Zhang Zhifu to come and let Master Tong do things in private. , Zhan Xiaomengtong is a native of Shangsi County, and the adults have the kindness to her. If this happens, it is reasonable for the adults to be promoted."

After half an hour, the two wounds on the forehead stopped bleeding, but the housekeeper who had just woken up had no time to reveal his identity, so he was arrested and had his mouth blocked, and then dragged out to play the board. Submit your name!
