There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 88
It is said that Tang Shujing led the detectives to Xiangxue Tower, and after a search, they actually caught three bandits!
After tying up the bandits, Tang Shujing glanced at Capt. Lin proudly and said proudly: "How is it? Didn't you say you raided Xiangxuelou? What did this goddess capture?"

"Second Miss is amazing! Second Miss is really the best goddess in the world!" Lin Captou praised sincerely, adding a little exaggeration.

"Humph!"

Tang Shujing turned around proudly, unable to suppress the ecstasy in her heart, and said to herself: "There are indeed bandits hiding in Xiangxue Tower, God has really shown his power! That guy Su Xian..."

After escorting the bandits back to the county government office, Tang Shujing immediately rushed to the county government office lobby to ask Tang Ju for credit.

It happened that Zhou Ji's office was also present. After learning that Tang Shujing had captured three bandits, he smiled and praised her in public as "a hero among women" and "a woman who is not inferior to men"!
Tang Shujing was really overjoyed.

Who is Zhou Ji's office?

He is a subordinate official in Princess Lanling's mansion. Although he is only a sixth-rank official, he is even more prestigious than a senior official of the fourth rank.

After he came to Leshou County, he kept a straight face the whole time, stern and selfless, tossing Tang Ju and other officials of the yamen.

However, he smiled at Tang Shujing and praised her... Tang Shujing almost fainted with happiness, which further strengthened her understanding that "I am indeed the best goddess in the world".

However, Tang Shujing clearly knew where her "confidence" came from.

After leaving the county government hall, she secretly came to the Buddhist hall in the back house again. After making sure that no one was around, she clasped her hands together, closed her eyes gently, and recited:

"Please God, let me get clues about the bandits again..."

After praying for a long time, Tang Shujing opened her eyes and looked eagerly at the place where she last found the small paper ball... Well, no!
She panicked, rummaged around in the grass, and finally found a small ball of paper behind a stone about a foot away.

She unfolded it with trembling hands, and when she took a closer look, she saw what was written on it: "Wharf of the Grand Canal in the west of the city, Warehouse No. B[-], there is gold and silver hidden by bandits..."

The gold and silver hidden by the bandits!God, if I search them all, they will praise me to death... Tang Shujing's heart is hard to calm down, her fingers are trembling...

At the same time, on the roof of the Buddhist temple.

A woman lies there motionless, like a roof tile, integrated into the entire building.

After the woman watched Tang Shujing's eager back disappear from sight, she continued lying on her stomach expressionlessly for a while.

When no one was around, she disappeared like a ghost.

……

Time goes back to an hour ago.

Corner Tower Street.

It was just dawn, and the morning sun came in through the window, and a new day began.

Su Xian jumped up and was about to wake up Yang Zhilan who was sleeping on the floor, but before he could say anything, Yang Zhilan stood up like a carp.

"Remember what I said last night? I have a task for you today." Su Xian said after a moment of shock.

"remember."

"..."

At that moment, Su Xian explained the specific tasks clearly.

Then he took out a 100-tael silver note and a bunch of golden copper coins, stuffed them into Yang Zhilan, and said, "You can take care of breakfast yourself. If you don't have enough money, ask me for it."

Yang Zhilan nodded, took the bank notes and copper coins, turned around and jumped out of the window to set off.

After watching her leave, Su Xian fetched water to wash up.

Today he was going to the county school to retrieve his books. He specially changed into a newly bought Confucian shirt, and after dressing up handsomely and elegantly, he opened the door.

By the way, Su Xian also carried a piece of equipment unique to scholars - a box cage.

The cage is actually a backpack, which can store books, pens, ink, paper, inkstones, etc. A slightly more luxurious cage also has the function of a "rain shelter".

I went to the county to learn how to carry books. There were only a few books, but they were very large. It would be very convenient if there were boxes and cages...

Jiaolou Street should have been deserted in the early morning.

But when Su Xian went out, he encountered a group of patrolling Minzhuang, carrying a knife at their waist, a gun in their hand, and a bow and arrow on their back. They were fully armed and walked through the street in a neat row.

Princess Lanling is approaching, and the city has intensified patrols... After Su Xian watched the patrolling people go away, he suddenly thought of last night's inference -

A huge conspiracy seems to be hanging over Princess Lanling.

If Princess Lanling is ill, I'm afraid that the entire Hebei Road will be in chaos...

Forget it, let's take it one step at a time, fill up our stomach first... Su Xian shook his head, bought steamed cakes, and went to the porridge shop to drink two bowls of thick porridge.

After eating, we hired a car and went straight to the county school.

The county school of Leshou County is located on the bank of the "Chunxiang River" in the north of the city.

The Xuan Huong River flows in from the west city gate and flows windingly towards the northwest city wall. There is a special culvert there for the Xuan Huong River to flow out.

The county school is located on the upper reaches of Xuanxiang River, relatively close to the West Gate.

The lower reaches of the Chunxiang River, next to the county school, is the only "entertainment area" in Leshou County. It has everything from brothels, brothels, gourmet bars, gambling houses, restaurants, etc.

When Su Xian arrived at the county school, the sun was already rising.

Because he went to the county government halfway to try to find Tang Shujing in order to find out the progress of the plan.

After waiting for a long time, after learning that Tang Shujing hurriedly set off to the north of the city with the policemen, Su Xian thought to himself: "It's done."

After this delay, it was already late in the afternoon when we arrived at the county school, around ten o'clock in the morning.

He got off the carriage and looked at the ancient gatehouse and the plaque of "Le Shou County School" hanging on the red lacquer door. A strange sense of familiarity came over him.

This is county school.

Remember how much money Old Su spent to send him to the county school!
Their family of three had a pretty good life at first after they separated from the family.

But in order for Su Xian to enter the county school and to pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi to shine on his family, Lao Su spent countless money, which directly led to the decline of their family.

Today, the county school is still there.

But both Lao Su and my mother have passed away and are no longer in the world...

Looking at the tall gate tower of the county school, Su Xian sighed for a long time.

Then step into the gate of the county school.

After walking in, Su Xian obviously felt that there were many more people in the county school.

Instead of students wearing Confucian shirts, there are actually only 25 students in Leshou County School.

Most of these extra people are officials, country squires or famous officials, generally in their 50s or [-]s, walking around in county schools...

Strange, why is the county school so busy today?What happened? With doubts in his heart, Su Xian walked towards the "school house" where he used to live, carrying a suitcase and cage on his back.

The county school implements closed management, and only ten-day holiday students can go outside, so they need accommodation, and the school building is equivalent to a "student dormitory".

When I arrived outside the school building, by coincidence, my classmate and friend Lin Chuan walked towards me, followed by two little book boys.

"Brother Su!"

"Brother Lin!"

Lin Chuan laughed loudly, stepped forward, took Su Xian's hand, and said loudly: "Brother Lin, why did you come to the county to study? Didn't you take a month's leave?"

"Come back and get the book."

Su Xian grinned secretly, and gently shook off Lin Chuan's pulling hand.

Although Lin Chuan is a generous and righteous person, his appearance... really looks like a pretty boy, and he likes to flirt and hug each other...
