Dao fruit.

"A while ago, Song Yuan Jiedu envoy defeated Wuxi Marsh in the dense forest. Some marsh people fled to the territory of Jiannan Road, and one of them fled to the south. Your villages were killed by them."

After a few words of emotion, Liu Huai told what he knew.

Although he is a steward of Pan's residence, his family is not big and there are not so many rules. He usually eats in the main hall. Seeing that Qiu Yan returned safely, he hurried back, so he removed the dining table, and several people sat down separately. .

Qiu Yan's aunt and Liu Yue's wife withdrew.

"Wuxi Marsh, Song Yuan Jiedu envoy."

Listening to Liu Huai's words, Qiu Yan's eyes gradually changed.

After the establishment of the Darui dynasty, a three-level system of Taoist, prefecture, and county was implemented locally, but in addition to this, there was another organizational system-the army.

This army is not the abbreviation or title of the army in Qiu Yan's previous life, but the name of a city. The area under the jurisdiction of the "army" is mostly a city, which is similar in size to a county. There are no subordinate villages or villages under the city, but There are garrisons and soldiers.

In the entire territory of Longjian Dao, there are a total of seven armies, that is, seven garrisoned cities, which are directly under the jurisdiction of Dao. They are mainly distributed in the south and west.

The highest officer of the army is the Jiedushi, who is in charge of the military, government and people's livelihood in the city.

That Song Yuan is the envoy of the Wuxin Army in the southwest, and the supreme controller of Wuxin City. He is between Yuanning Mansion and Rongzhou Mansion. He has fought against Wuxi marsh people all year round and has rarely lost.

After understanding the general situation, Qiu Yan gradually grasped the context of the matter, and asked, "Where did these news come from?"

"The government has notified that a few days ago, Wu Xin also sent a team of officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress the rout of the marsh people. People in several villages have been buried, and the victims who fled from the disaster have been resettled by special personnel." Liu Huai kept paying attention when he was speaking. Seeing Qiu Yan's expression, he saw the other party frowning frequently, and said, "Yan'er, your father..."

As a nephew of his, he had been stubborn, dull, and single-minded since he was a child. Liu Huaisheng was afraid that the other party would seek revenge if he found out the reason, so he was a little worried.

Those swamp people are said to be ferocious people, killing people without blinking an eye.

Liu Huai has always had a dislike for Qiu Yan's father, Qiu Zonglin, but he loves Qiu Yan, who was born to his sister, very much.

Last year, the Qiu family's father and son went to the exam one after another. The son wanted to be a scholar, and the father wanted to be a scholar, but they both returned home. They became the laughing stock of Qingchang County. That's why the Qiu family moved to Zuoqu Village. After a few months, this kind of thing happened. Several villages died, even Qiu Zonglin died, and only his nephew survived.

Qiu Yan's calmness did not reassure Liu Huai, on the contrary, he worried that the other party had made up his mind and would act impulsively, so he became more worried: "You stay here first, and then go back to guard the system after a while, and two years later, you will take the imperial examination again. "

In fact, Liu Huai was not optimistic about Qiu Yan's imperial examination path. In his opinion, Qiu Yan, like his father, was not that material. It would be better to be born in peace, even to be a school teacher or accountant, than to concentrate on imperial examinations. Much, but he was afraid that his nephew would be overwhelmed, so he used this as a thought to tie the other's mind.

In this world, like ancient China, there is also the theory of keeping filial piety, but there are not many restrictions, except that you are not allowed to be an official, take an exam, and marry. It takes 27 months, that is, two years and three months.

Qiu Yan has a good memory since he was young, and he has dabbled in classics and historical books. He passed the county and government examinations at the age of sixteen. Qiu Yan's father, Qiu Zonglin, was overjoyed. When he waited for the official township examination, Qiu Yan got stuck in the road examination. Last year, when he was 19, he took the exam again, but he still failed, not even a scholar.

The Daoist Examination is held twice in three years. In April and May, Qiu Yan finishes his filial piety, so he can just catch up. If it goes well, he can even participate in the Qiu Wei of the same year.

However, Qiu Yan's father, Qiu Zonglin, was a scholar in the [-]th grade. After more than [-] years of examinations, he failed to make further progress. The former finally passed away, which also made Liu Huai no longer communicate with Qiu Zonglin.

Seeing through Liu Huai's thoughts, Qiu Yan shook his head: "Don't worry, uncle, I know in my heart, those people are not something I can deal with now."

"It's best if you can figure it out. There is still something to do in Pan's residence. You should rest first, and I will set up a banquet to surprise you in the evening. I haven't told your aunt about your return. I will tell her later. God was hurt by your matter, and Mrs. Pan scolded him a few times."

Speaking of this, Liu Huai thought of another thing: "By the way, the screening of refugees is very strict this time. You should try to move around as little as possible these few days, and don't reveal your identity, or you may still have some troubles. Let's talk about it after the limelight passes. "

Qiu Yan nodded and said yes, even if Liu Huai didn't order these things, Qiu Yan had similar plans, and even prepared to ask Liu Huai to cooperate, but he didn't expect that letting the other party take the lead would save a lot of effort.

After saying a few more words, Liu Huai and Liu Yue left first. They were both helping out in Pan's residence. Qiu Yan came suddenly, and it was the limit to be able to come over to comfort him.

After Liu Huai and his son left, Qiu Yan became pensive.

"The thing about monsters has turned into bandits and soldiers invading the world, and the villagers who were eaten became killed by swordsmen, and the 'refugees' who escaped were all isolated and specially housed. In this way, it is true It's been hidden from the sky, no one knows the truth of the tragedy in the south, so it seems that the power of that 'King of Tongshan' is extraordinary..."

Thinking about it, his stomach suddenly growled.

"Xiaoyan, your uncle came here in a hurry and didn't even fill you up. I'm going to talk about him tonight. You go to the kitchen to get some and continue to eat." The aunt next to me happened to hear it and urged him to make up for it. meal.

Qiu Yan was not polite, nodded and went.

"After absorbing that drop of blood essence, the body is certainly stronger, but the appetite has also improved. In the past half a month in the mountains and forests, I have been able to nourish myself with wild game, but after arriving here, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to eat in the future."

Qiu Yan was thinking while entering the kitchen.

He got a physical body and inherited karma, but he was also in danger, especially in this situation, the other party obviously had a lot of energy in the world, so he had to be more careful.

"However, what happened now also shows that although the group of monsters are ferocious, they have to follow the rules and not dare to be unscrupulous when they are in a crowded place! attack."

As he ate bite by bite, the thoughts in Qiu Yan's mind became clearer.

"When I came to Yuanning City and went to Qiu Yan's uncle, he really inherited this identity. It's not a bad thing to observe mourning for more than two years. I just use this time to sort myself out. The imperial examination is still required, because I have inherited the cause and effect of ambition, but Now that I am in the examination room, I am afraid that the test will be worse than the original Qiu Yan, but, having said that, since I have inherited several major causes and effects, I have been entangled slowly for more than ten days. Entanglement, there will be unpredictable benefits."

Time passed quickly, and soon it was night.

The Liu family's yard was not far from Pan's residence. As soon as Xu time passed, Liu Huai and his son returned from Pan's residence. The family sat around a table and had a meal.

During the dinner, Liu Huai couldn't do without comforting Qiu Yan. Fortunately, Qiu Yan was no longer the original one at this time, and he responded one by one. In the end, Liu Huai took out a small box.

"You know more or less about your aunt's situation in Pan's residence. I don't have anything for you, so just ask me to bring some snacks." After he finished speaking, he put down the box and took out a few pieces of silver from his pocket. "You take this money So, there are your aunt's and mine, our family is not rich, we can't afford much, so let's just order."

"No way!" Qiu Yan hastily declined.

The aunt Liu Huai talked about was his younger sister, and also the younger sister of Qiu Yan's mother. She was pretty when she was young, and she was admired by Pan Yuanwai and became a concubine. Liu Huai also relied on this relationship to find a manager. However, for more than ten years, the Liu family only gave birth to one daughter, and her status in the Pan family has gradually declined. Now, she has to rely on Liu Huai's help most of the time.

As for Liu Huai, if it wasn't for his seniority and age, he might have lost his seat long ago. Even so, he can only manage trivial matters now. The Pan family is huge, and there are seven or eight people in charge of affairs alone, and Liu Huai is just one of them. , life at home is getting worse and worse than before, until recently, Liu Yue gradually gained the trust of the third young master in the mansion, and then he got better.

In this case, Qiu Yan was of course unwilling to accept the other party's gift.

"Don't refuse, who doesn't spend money to buy books and eat? Pens, inks, papers and inkstones are big money. If you don't take them, how can you read and write? If you feel sorry for your uncle and your aunt, you will become an official in the future. Don't forget that we will do it. Take it!"

After some rhetoric, Qiu Yan finally accepted it. Just like Liu Huai said, in this world, it is difficult to move without money, even gods cannot be exempted.

"However, in this way, the causal involvement of the kinship will be even greater, and there must be something in return in the future."

Listening to the words of Liu Huai who was slightly drunk, even if Qiu Yan was not the original person, there was a tinge of warmth in his heart.

After eating this meal for nearly an hour, when Qiu Yan returned to the room prepared for him, it was already late at night.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he pondered for a while.

"There will probably be some action tonight."

Thinking in his heart, Qiu Yan took out a bunch of green shirts from his pillow, spread them out, put them on the table in the room, and then fell asleep, not long after, there was a slight snoring sound.

At night, there was silence.

A breeze entered the room from the window, and the air flowed, slightly blowing the green shirt on the table.

suddenly!

A blue light appeared without any sign, drilled out from the ground, and rotated into a cone shape.

Go around!

The light dissipated, revealing a hunchbacked figure, but it was a person, like a dwarf, hunchbacked, less than three feet tall.

As soon as the man appeared, he stood on tiptoe and looked at the table.

The white glow flickered, the green shirt on the table fluttered slightly, and a tall figure in Confucian uniform rose up. It was Qiu Yan's deity. He flicked his sleeves, fell down, and bowed: "I have seen the land."

"You don't need to be too polite. I am the seat of the City God of Yuanning Capital, and the land in the south of the city. I came here in accordance with the order. I don't know where you come from? What is the purpose of coming to Yuanning City?"
