Changsheng: My qualifications improve a little every day

Chapter 79 Rejection (Third update)

"You, you are actually martial arts people?!!"

"How did you pass the martial arts examination? It's totally unreasonable. It's really unreasonable."

A group of scholars who were all hairy had their eyes wide open, and their faces seemed to be dyed in a vat.

It took a lot of hard work for these talented people to get to where they are today.

The lights are on at three o'clock and the chickens are on at five o'clock, and we forget about food and sleep.

Some families even sold a lot of their land, just to pave the way for them to study.

In the end, their reputations were ruined. Instead, they were two people who ate and drank in restaurants every day, and both were admitted to the more prestigious military examinations.

No reason, no reason at all.

However, they really didn't dare to verbally insult Fang Yue and the two anymore.

These two people are martial arts scholars, they are just literary scholars.

Judgment is based on superior status. If the inferior is really superior to the superior, then it is indeed a violation of the law and will be punished with thirty lashes.

They are all scholars with delicate skin and tender flesh. How dare they accept the whip?

He immediately apologized to Fatty Bai and Fang Yue.

"Haha, as expected, they all say that scholars are bloodless, like dogs with broken spines, barking and talking arrogantly. I didn't expect that when I saw him today, it turned out to be so."

Fang Yue was also listed as a loser by these scholars just now.

Therefore, he doesn't have a good look towards these people.

If these scholars were really stubborn and would fight against them even if they were whipped, then he would still look down upon them.

"Yes, yes, a dog with a broken spine. Brother Fang's description is really appropriate."

Fatty Bai laughed, and then stopped caring about these scholars, and instead focused on destroying the food in front of him with Fang Yue.

~~~~~~
On the second day, Wen Juren released the results.

It is said that on the day when the results were read, many young men who had just passed the exam and were not married were taken down the list to catch their sons-in-law.

On the contrary, it made the surrounding people watching and eating melons envious.

At night, Lord Liu Zhengliu, the county magistrate, held a banquet and invited the newly promoted military and civil candidates.

The banquet was held in a restaurant next to the Yamen.

"Haha, all the newly promoted candidates are all talents from our Xiahe County. Whether you go to the capital city to take the imperial examination in the future, or stay here as officials, you will all benefit one side."

"Today, to congratulate you all, come and drink this cup to the full."

Liu Zheng looked calm and sat upright.

He is the examiner for these new candidates, and is also known as the seat teacher in the officialdom.

There is a relationship between students and teachers.

Although it is not as good as a real master and apprentice, it is still a very close relationship.

If anyone among Fang Yue and the others goes to high school again in the future, he, the teacher, will be proud and it will be counted as his political achievement.

"Follow your orders~"

Many toasts were raised, and then the banquet officially began.

But because the civil and military officials paid different attention to it, ten military officials sat at the same table as Mr. Liu.

In the center of the hall.

Of course, the top three civil servants are also in the same seat.

After about an hour, the banquet ended.

Many civil examiners dispersed, and only Fang Yue and other military examiners were left behind by Liu Zheng.

"You are all confused, why do you want to stay here?"

At this time, there were no other people around, and the soldiers from the Yamen also sealed off the entire hall.

Liu Zheng looked at these ten martial arts candidates and said solemnly.

"I don't dare. The teacher must have a reason for leaving me waiting. The student has no doubts."

The one who spoke was Lin Weizhong, the person who ranked first in the martial arts examination and achieved the first place.

After Lin Weizhong finished speaking, other martial arts officials also looked at Liu Zheng.

From the words of the two people, the martial arts people present also noticed something was wrong.

It seems that today's banquet is not a good feast.

"Haha, they are indeed the pillars of my family. That's great."

Liu Zheng first looked relieved and stroked his beard, then scanned the crowd and continued:

"Last year and this year, because of the war in the northwest, land taxes were increased. Some of these farmers were ignorant and joined the Moshan tribe in the mountains."

Fang Yue couldn't help but look at Liu Zheng and Mo Shan after hearing this.

I still remember the first time he came to Xiahe County. At that time, not far outside the city gate, he encountered the city guards chasing a group of mountain people.

Those people are the mountain people of Moshan tribe.

At that time, I heard from Uncle Fang Hu that these mountain people of Moshan tribe did not pay taxes or food, hid in the mountains, resisted the imperial court, and were wanted by the imperial court.

Unexpectedly, two years later, Liu Zheng, the county official, would actually mention the Moshan tribe.

Fang Yue had heard of the name Mo Shanbu, and even more so among the other martial arts practitioners present except Fatty Bai.

What they know must be far more than Fang Yue.

At this moment, upon hearing this name, everyone's normally relaxed expressions became serious.

"Haha, you don't need to be nervous. There is really a huge good thing about leaving you here this time, and it is related to the Moshan tribe. Fucheng intends to destroy the Moshan tribe, and has already sent out a large army."

"It's just that we in Xiahe County, as landowners, must also fulfill our responsibilities and draw out the mountain route to the Moshan tribe for the army in Fucheng."

"If anyone can do this, he can be directly promoted to an officer. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that a ninth-grade lieutenant can still do it.

In addition, Fucheng promised that [-]% of the proceeds from this war would belong to the county.I am willing to give half of it to those who complete the task. "

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he was not in a hurry. He picked up the tea bowl and took a slight sip.

There is the temptation of official position and the reward of silver.

The Moshan tribe has been entrenched in Moshan for a hundred years. A tribe of thousands of people has accumulated an unknown amount of wealth in this mountain forest.

One percent of the wealth would only cost tens of thousands of silver.

To give money to an official, the conditions are not unreasonable.

It is enough to save ordinary martial arts practitioners several years or even ten years of effort.

Immediately, several martial arts candidates expressed their willingness, and in a blink of an eye, the number reached five.

Fang Yue frowned.

He also knows something about the Moshan tribe, that is, these mountain people actually live outside the 'line'.

There must be something unique about being able to take root in a place full of wild animals and survive for so many years.

And being able to promise such a huge profit also shows that this mission is definitely not simple, and it is very likely that one will die as a result.

Otherwise, if there is no danger, how come the Moshan tribe exists today.

You can't do such dangerous things.

After all, he doesn't need to rely on these.

Playing steadily and waiting for the passage of time is the most important thing to him.

It just depends on the situation on site.

It seems that Mr. Liu County is planning to let all ten of them participate in this action and will not let them go easily.

Therefore, we still have to find an opportunity to shirk this matter without offending the county magistrate.

However, the good news is that there are always people who look down upon these interests.Soon the first person appeared.

It was Wei He who was No. 3 in the imperial examination. He spoke slowly and said in a sad tone:
"For such an important matter, I should be obliged to do so. However, Jia Ci passed away yesterday, and I need to observe mourning for three years."

"Well, filial piety is greater than heaven. Since there is something going on in Wei He's family, filial piety and brotherhood must be the most important thing. You can go back."

Naturally, Liu Zheng couldn't force him. After all, the Wei family was the largest family in Xiahe County and had considerable power.

Besides, if people want to observe filial piety, and the reasons are legitimate, how can he forcefully conquer them?

However, after the first one, there was a second one soon.

Fatty Bai was not from Xiahe County, and his family was also very powerful in Fucheng, so naturally he would not stay here to participate in such an action that would kill Lao Shizi.

He immediately said that he still had important matters and needed to rush back to Fucheng to deal with them.

Without waiting for Liu Zheng to answer, Fang Yue also stood up at this time: "Your Majesty, the county magistrate, I was hit by a hammer during the imperial examination a few days before the next semester. The injury has not healed yet. I really can't go this time. I hope County Honorable Lord Haihan."

Fang Yue was indeed hit by a hammer that day, but the extent of his injuries was not examined on the spot.

It's not time to let him speak.

It's just a reason. Anyway, he is now a martial arts official and not an official of the yamen. Even the county magistrate cannot force him.

Liu Zheng was originally unhappy, and three people in succession opposed this matter.

Suddenly, among the ten candidates, three were missing.

Then this matter is really difficult to do.

However, the first Wei He's reason was legitimate and he could not refute it.

You can't be unkind.

The second one is Bai Xingqiu. He knows a little about this person, and he also knows that his origin is not simple.

Well, you can’t offend either.

When Fang Yue arrived, well, it was not easy to deal with either.

After all, he and Zhang Boyang had a good conversation in the past two days, and he had already taken [-]% of the dry shares in Baihu Tea House.

You can't just raise your hand and kill someone else's nephew as a warning to the monkeys just after you get the benefits.

After all, I heard that Fang Yue and Zhang Boyang had a very good relationship, and Zhang Boyang really wanted to marry his daughter to him.

In this case, just let these three people promise not to leak the secret and then leave.

was about to speak,
But one person from Wu Ju spoke and said: "My lord, the county magistrate, I was also injured that day and need to recover for a while. This time, I'm afraid I won't be able to help."

"Humph, Liu Jinyuan, I can't tell whether you're injured or not. Don't dare to lie to me because your surname is Liu. Do you want to have your injuries examined now?"

Liu Zheng's tone was cold, and his tyrannical momentum sent Liu Jinyuan into the ice cave.

His mouth opened and closed, but in the end he didn't dare to say a word.

Of course, in my heart, I kept complaining that it was okay for others to say this, but why couldn't it be his turn.

Besides, he is from the Liu family, one of the four major families in the city.

Could it be that he can't compare to a boy from the White Tiger Boxing Gym?

However, he only dared to keep these words in his heart and did not dare to say them out.

After this person made a fuss, no one dared to raise objections anymore.

Liu Zheng immediately sent Fang Yue and the others away.

~~~~~~
out of the restaurant.

Fatty Bai immediately looked Fang Yue up and down:

"Tsk, tsk, Brother Fang didn't realize that he was so ordinary, but he managed to escape from the Hongmen Banquet. It's amazing! He is indeed the brother that Bai Juren likes me."

At the same time, Wei He, who was behind the two of them, also looked curious.

After all, what this fat white man is wearing is worth a lot of money at first glance, and this person is not from their Xiahe County.

If an outsider can take the martial arts test here, his identity must be not simple.

Therefore, it is reasonable for County Master Liu to let this person go.

As for Fang Yue, it was his victory over Huang Ziyou that day that made him take a high look.

I originally thought that was it.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Liu County Master also let this person go today.

This person is even more important in Liu Xianzun's heart than the third-ranked Liu Jiazi.

White Tiger Boxing Gym Fang Yue, who is this person?
Wei He immediately thought that during the assessment that day, the examiner Fang Yue seemed to be interested in protecting him. Could this person have some other hidden identity?
"No, no, I was really injured. And it was internal. That hammer was really uncomfortable. All my internal organs were injured. If I didn't cultivate myself, I would be really useless."

Fang Yue was also a little confused, but this did not affect him.

Anyway, even if he tried to offend the county magistrate in the end, he would still give up the job.

It's already great to have this result.

"Haha, in that case, I just have time now. Brother, I invite you to go to Yihong Mansion and eat some meat to get rid of bad luck."

Fatty Bai also doesn’t dig into things, and sometimes it’s not good for friends to dig into the root of things.

Rarely confused, rarely confused.

"You two, we are all in the same trouble today. We should celebrate instead of going together."

At this time, Wei He caught up with the two and spoke.

The origins of these two people are not simple, and they should be friends.

Whether in officialdom or in future life, many friends lead to many paths.

There is always something he can use.

"We have an appointment today. Let's talk tomorrow when we have the chance. The two of us are going to drink wine. Brother Wei is in mourning, so I'm afraid he won't be able to go."

Fatty Bai rejected Wei He directly. He didn't like this person and felt that he didn't like him.

Then there will never be any friendship.

Besides, this person just said at the banquet that his mother passed away and she would have to mourn for three years.

Just go out and follow them to drink wine. This kind of person may have some problems with his character.

"In that case, I'll take my leave first."

Wei He was rejected, and the smile on his face immediately stiffened.A trace of anger flashed across his face, he stiffly arched his hands, then turned around and left.

"Pretentious, hypocrite!"

Fatty Bai glanced at it and commented rudely.

Fang Yue also deeply believed that Wei He gave him a bad feeling and didn't seem like a good person.

However, Bai Xingqiu was so persistent in waiting for him to eat meat.

He still didn't accept it and immediately postponed:
"Brother Bai, I don't think I can drink this flower wine. I'm afraid it's a bit late tonight. Let's go when we have time tomorrow."

The first time I went there with Fatty Bai, it was an eye-opener. Besides, we only eat food, not meat.

If this happened again, he couldn't guarantee whether he would be able to control it.

This kind of corrupt life is not what he wants.

Of course, you have to be firm in your heart, how could you be led astray by this fat man.

"It's boring, it's boring. Go and rest, go and rest.

It's not that I don't invite you to go, it's that you don't go yourself. You have to help me with that matter! "Bai Pang said with some disinterest.

"It's just an introduction, just a small favor. Of course I'll help with this." Fang Yue laughed and assured.

The two then returned to the restaurant.
