I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Chapter 634 Family First
After Zhou Yu took apart the firecracker, his face became serious, "Where did the firecracker come from?"

Cheng Jin clapped his hands and the soldiers pushed two people in, a foreigner and a rough-faced man, "It was captured from the two of them."

The management of firecrackers in Ruizhou is very strict. Except for the firecrackers owned by the barracks, any firecrackers carried by outsiders need to be registered. The maximum number of firecrackers they can carry is two, and local officials will send people to follow them until the outsiders leave.

Yang Xi fiddled with the parts of the firecracker, and then reassembled the firecracker, holding it in his hand to test the feel, "Is there any captured ammunition?"

Cheng Jin took out a box from his arms, "It's all here."

Zhou Yu and his wife took a handful out of the yard each, and they walked towards the small shooting range set up in the backyard. This place was built for Zilu and Zhenyuan, and it was specially prepared for the two children to practice martial arts and archery.

Yang Xi wanted to fire the gun but was stopped by Cheng Jin, "Sir, these two foreign guns cannot be guaranteed safe."

Cheng Jin was afraid that the guns would explode, the two gentlemen were treasures, and any danger that could harm the two gentlemen had to be put to an end.

Yang Xi handed the firecracker to Cheng Jin, and Cheng Jin arranged for someone to test the power and distance, etc. Yang Xi felt the temperature of the firecracker, "Sure enough, it has improved a lot."

Zhou Yu, "It's not just us who are making progress."

Yang Xi said in a low tone, "Yes, Xixuan and Guanyi pose too much threat to foreigners, they have to increase their research on firearms."

The husband and wife had already guessed where the rough man was from. The only guests who came to the wedding this time were the northeast tribes who were obsessed with firearms.

The two walked back, and the two people in the hall were sprawled on the ground like bones, obviously giving them medicine.

Yang Xi pointed at them, "Send them to Jiaozhou."

Zhou Yu then told Cheng Jin, "Deport all the foreigners in the territory."

I wanted to take my time, but now I don't need it. The foreigner took the initiative to give the reason.

Cheng Jin, "Yes."

One of the two guns was kept for research, and the other was also sent to Jiaozhou.

The people in Shanghe Town don't know the minds of foreigners. The people are still immersed in the joy of the end of the rural examination. At the same time, the Zhou Family Academy has also received many self-recommendation letters.

Yang Xi flipped through the thick self-recommendation letter, "Someone from the Geng family also won the Juren this time, and they will leave the school sooner or later if they have a clear ambition."

It has to be said that the Geng family has accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. They taught the students and studied it again. This time the rural examination can be said to be well-thought-out. It would be strange if the Geng family did not make the list.

Zhou Yu has read a lot of self-recommendation letters, "Not everyone in the Geng family wants to be an official, but Geng Jue will definitely leave."

Yang Xi picked out the self-recommendation letters that he thought were good, "Yes."

The Zhou family school became famous, and some capable people and strangers saw the trend of the imperial examination, and took the initiative to write a self-recommendation letter to the school to teach, and those who dared to send a self-recommendation letter to the Zhou family school were all people with real skills.

Some people have no fame, but they are very good at calculating astronomy and so on. They asked Yang Xi and his wife questions in their self-recommendation letters. They are arrogant people who dare to ask questions. Level, it can be said that this choice is two-way.

Yang Xi and Zhou Yu have recently been immersed in self-recommendation letters and doing questions. The two have an advanced advantage. However, don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. Some questions need to be calculated repeatedly by the husband and wife.

On this day, Yang Xi and his wife finally finished processing the self-recommendation letters, and the selection of state officials began.

There are three members of the Geng family for reference, Geng Jue, Geng Jing, and a member of the Geng family. Since Zhou Yu is going to participate in the selection of officials, there is no way for the three of them to retreat. The Zhou Family Academy will not let them continue to come back to teach.

Several prefectures under Yang Xixuan's jurisdiction are waiting for the results of the election of officials. This year, the number of people participating in the election has doubled. Zhou Yu and his wife did not prepare the examination questions for the selection of officials. In the past two years, the officials themselves came up with the questions.

The eyes of the south were focused on Yang Xixuan's selection of officials. Lu Shangshu and his party finally returned to the capital. The journey back was difficult, not to mention how many soldiers were lost. Two officials who went south just died.

Lu Shangshu and others advanced to the palace to report, and Lu Shangshu received a thunderbolt, and his granddaughter was pregnant.

It took a while for Lu Shangshu to come back to his senses, his son would not be so stupid, Lu Shangshu calmed down and glanced at the emperor's face, this face is so good.

Wang Huo was quite satisfied with Lu Shangshu and others going south, "You have worked hard this trip, everyone go back to rest first, and tomorrow I will clean up the dust for you."

Lu Shangshu's mouth was as bitter as Coptis chinensis, "I will resign."

Mr. Peng looked at Lu Shangshu. Lu Shangshu's granddaughter was pregnant. Mr. Peng thought that the Peng family needed to submit a certificate to join General Yang.

Lu Shangshu had a gloomy expression after getting into the carriage back home, all his sons were at home today, the sons of the Lu family were very worried.

Lu Shangshu took his sons back to the study, and he slapped the table hard, "Boss, you let me down so much."

Why don't you feed your granddaughter medicine before entering the palace.

Young Master Lu closed his eyes, "Father, the son didn't take good care of his wife."

He has been educated as an heir since he was a child, and everything is based on the interests of the family. Even if he loves his daughter even more, he has prepared medicine. However, his wife loves her daughter and plots that Wang Huo failed to make her daughter fake death.

Lu Shangshu wanted to vomit blood, and the Lu family and Wang Huo had children involved, which was too dangerous for the Lu family, "You know what to do."

Young Master Lu has heard too much, and his father's straightforward handling obviously has completely turned his heart towards Yang Xixuan, "Father, can Yang Xixuan really become the master of this world?"

Lu Shangshu said in a low tone, "He has advanced firearms, strong soldiers, and high-yield grain seeds. My son, you haven't seen the prosperity of Ruizhou. As long as you see it, you will understand that you are a father."

Now Yang Xixuan only needs to wait for the opportunity to transform into a dragon.

Young Master Lu, "The Lu family shouldn't be trapped in the capital."

Lu Shangshu, "Don't worry, Jin'er is well-behaved at home?"

Mr. Lu's eyes were complicated, "Jin'er is very sensible."

There was a slight smile on Lu Shangshu's face, "It's good to be sensible, it's fine, you are all gone too."

Jin'er was called to the study room. He was not surprised to see his grandfather again, but he became more vigilant in the face of his grandfather's love. In his eyes, his grandfather seemed like a monster that could eat people.

Jin'er began to wonder why his grandfather taught him personally, but after his uncle taught him that the family is the most important thing, he felt that something was wrong, and his grandfather became more enthusiastic about him when he came back from the south. Jin'er went out of the study and looked back, obviously the root cause was south.

Jin'er looked up at the sky. He wanted to get out of Lu's mansion. Only by going out could he get more information, but the Lu family managed him too strictly and completely prevented him from communicating with the outside world.

Jin'er walked back to her own yard and had to pass the garden, and the servants in the garden respectfully saluted him when they saw him from a distance, but Jin'er didn't see him, his eyes were on the flowers in the mother-in-law's hand.

The old lady replied cautiously, "This is for the old lady to arrange flowers."

Jin'er hummed, he thought of the shopkeeper of the rouge shop, that was the only outsider he had contact with, how would he get in touch with the news from the outside world?
Ye Shun also received a secret letter from the south. Because of the autumn harvest, there were more merchants in the capital. No matter how the world went, it was convenient for Ye Shun to live on.

Ye Shun was surprised that the lord and Mr. Zhou asked him to pay attention to the Lu family. Originally, he was staring at the Lu family, but now he was ordered to let him go.

Ruizhou's high-yield grain newspapers published several issues, but the two major forces in the north still tightly blocked the news. The autumn harvest is painful for the people in the north, and there is no half-full grain left all year round.

Yang Xixuan also flipped through the secret letter sent back by the North, and sneered after reading it, "I'll see how long they can block it."

Ming Chen, "My lord, why didn't you send someone to spread the word privately?"

Yang Xixuan shook his head, "I sent people to spread the word privately and it would only cause casualties to innocent people."

Only the Zhang family and Wang Huo can't block it, and let the natural development take its course to avoid innocent casualties.

If he sends people to spread the news, he will definitely be traced. The Zhang family and Wang Huo will definitely kill them. By then, I don't know how many people will be implicated.

Ming Chen didn't mention the grain, he changed the topic, "The conflict between the grassland tribe and the northeast tribe has intensified, and the time has come for my lord to collect horses."

Yang Xixuan was in a better mood, "The news about the iron mine has spread, now we'll see who can have the last laugh."

Ming Chen stroked his beard, he likes to do things behind his back, "My lord, my subordinates are willing to go to Jizhou in person."

Yang Xixuan couldn't go in person, Ming Chen was indeed the best choice in his heart, "But, Jin Jian will go with you."

Ming Chen looked at Jin Jian and clicked his tongue twice in his heart, this young man was too sharp, "Okay."

Li Wanning waited for her husband to rest before coming over with soup, Yang Xixuan quickly reached out to pick it up, "You came back early today."

Li Wanning sat next to Xianggong, "The enthusiasm for donations is over, so I'll come back earlier today."

Yang Xixuan held Wanning's hand, "I know everyone is staring at your belly, don't take it to heart when you hear what you hear outside, these two years my little girl has been promoting the benefits of getting married late, don't worry, I'm not in a hurry want children."

He knew that the pressure on his wife was the greatest after getting married. Not long after he got married, someone asked him to take a concubine to extend his heirs. All these words were mentioned in front of him, so he wondered how much his wife had heard.

Li Wanning was sweet in her heart, "My sister also told me in private, and my younger sister also showed me the information she collected. You mentioned today that I want to write an article about the harm of having an early child based on the information. What do you think?"

Of course Yang Xixuan supported it, "I'll show you after I finish writing it."

There is no one better suited to write this than his wife.
