Chapter 817
After passing through Jingzhou, he took the official road, which was much smoother than the previous muddy road, and Chen Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief.They stayed in Chenzhou for a long time before, even though it was an important day, but counting the days of the exam, they couldn't help but feel a little worried.But fortunately, Lu ZB helped them, and it didn't take too long.

A few people drove two carriages, Liu Yusheng looked at the sky, and said to Chen Dao, "I see a temple in front, why not stay for a night, I don't want to sleep in the wasteland."

Chen Xin was a little worried about the journey, Liu Yusheng pointed to Li Xiruo and Fu Wanying who were behind: "Even if you can bear it, what do you ask them two girls to do?"

Chen Xin glanced at Li Xiruo, nodded, tied the carriage outside the temple, and climbed the stairs that couldn't be seen at the end into Hanshan Temple.

Seeing a group of them, a young monk stopped sweeping the floor. Chen Xin stepped forward and said, "We are rushing for the exam. We are exhausted now, so we want to stay overnight. Master, please make it easier for us."

"Benefactor, please wait a moment, I will report to the host first."

This Hanshan Temple has always had many candidates who came to Beijing to stay overnight at this time, so the host naturally would not embarrass them and let them be invited in.

The little monk was about to take them to the hut to rest, when another group of people came outside, this temple is not a big temple, and there are not many monks, so the little monk had to ask them to wait a while, and he went to ask them what they needed to do first.

Turning around, Chen Xin saw a scholar-like man in a long robe, followed by a flirtatious woman on the left, and a tall but unfriendly man on the right, which seemed too disharmonious.

The man was full of arrogance. He took out a letter of appointment from his cuff, shook the paper and said to the little monk, "My lord is Mr. Shen Chongshen, the magistrate of Hehuai County, Yizhou, who is about to go to take office in Hehuai County, Yizhou. Now I want to stay overnight with you." Temples, idlers, etc., will all be cleared."

"This..." The monk glanced in the direction of Chen Xin and the others in embarrassment.The man sneered and said, "It's your temple's blessing to have magistrates staying in your temple. Look at your dilapidated place. Will there be other dignitaries coming here on weekdays?"

Although the temple was broken, the little monk blushed when he heard outsiders say this.

Chen Xin came out and said, "Lord Shen's entourage seems to be no more than four or five people. Even if we are included in the huts of this temple, there is still time. Why should Master Shen do this?"

Shen Chong stood in the middle, looking a little timid and thin. He didn't answer, but just glanced at the man next to him, as if asking for his opinion.

The man just took a look at Chen Xin and knew that he was not a son of a rich family, so he immediately said fiercely: "Where did you come from, you don't kneel down when you see the adults!"

Chen Xinping was the most detestable person in his life who used his power to bully others, so he immediately stopped being polite: "I am a juror, so I don't need to kneel down."

The man pointed at him mockingly and said: "What's the matter with Juzi, is the position of Juzi higher than that of the county magistrate? Why don't you kneel when the first rank of officials crushes people to death?"

Li Xiruo came forward and looked at them suspiciously: "There is a rule in this dynasty that you don't have to kneel down to raise a son. Since Mr. Shen is already a seventh-rank magistrate, don't you know?"

Shen Chong's complexion changed, and he suddenly became hesitant: "I, I know of course. It's my master who is reckless."

Shen Chong tugged Gao Jin's sleeve beside him, and the vulgar-looking woman leaned on Shen Chong's body and said, "Master, let's go in, you have nothing to say to a group of poor scholars."

Seeing that the woman behaved inappropriately, the little monk closed his eyes and reminded: "The important place of Buddhism, please respect yourself."

The woman thought the monk was funny, so she raised her sleeve weakly and almost brushed the young monk's face. The young monk's face changed in fright. Gao Jin coughed and reminded her, which made her calm down. some.

The little monk took a look at them, but he had no choice but to take them to the hut first.It's just that the incense in their temples is deserted, even if the guests do something out of the ordinary, they often turn a blind eye.

Liu Yusheng was furious at the side: "Do you understand what it means to come first, first come first? You are just a county magistrate, why are you so rampant?"

Chen Xin shook his head: "I think the one who is crazy is the master next to him."

Fu Wanying, who was silent along the way, looked at the back of the woman next to Shen Chong and said, "Master Shen's wife doesn't look like a girl from a serious family."

She has been a singer before, so she knows the methods best. That person is clearly acting like a lady of an official.

Li Xiruo squinted her eyes, and said slowly: "Master is not like master, and adults are not like adults, so how can madam be like madam?"

Chen Xin frowned: "I just glanced at the seal on the letter of appointment, and it's true. I'm afraid Mr. Shen has such a personality."

"Then I feel sorry for the people of Hehuai County. I'm afraid that such a county magistrate is in name only and let the master become the king."

Hearing Liu Yusheng's righteous indignation, Chen Xin said to him: "There is no need to be angry. Since the letter of appointment is genuine, it is the court's business. If he can't make achievements in the local area, he can't keep the black hat. Let's go in."

Apologetically, the little monk allocated them huts, but there were only three rooms left, because no one had been seen here for a long time, and they only moved in during the twelfth lunar month, so the other huts were either used as utility rooms, or hadn’t been seen for too long. Sweeping, it can no longer live in people.

In fact, the main reason was that Shen Chong took four people with him and occupied five huts at once.

Liu Yusheng felt strange: "Doesn't he live in the same room as his wife?"

When mentioning that woman, the little monk had a strange expression on his face, but he still covered it up, and said in a very shameful way: "Madam Zhixian said that a husband and wife may do something that pollutes the important places of Buddhism together, so I just asked for a squatter room." .”

Liu Yusheng looked at the little monk in front of him sympathetically, he didn't need to think about it, he knew that when the woman said this, the little monk's expression must be very ugly.

Chen Xin frowned, Shen Chong was also a seventh-rank county magistrate after all, how could he marry such a frivolous woman, it was really outrageous.

After the little monk went down, Liu Yusheng made the assignments: "Brother Chen and I share room, Brother Li Tian shares room, Miss Fu and Li, uh."

Chen Xin punched Liu Yusheng on the waist to tell him to shut up, Liu Yusheng turned his head and stared at him: "Is there a problem? Li Tian never lives with others, both of them..."

"To shut up."

Liu Yusheng looked at Chen Xin's expression, only to realize that Fu Wanying was looking at him in shock, and then he realized that Fu Wanying had always treated Li Xiruo as a man, and it was unbelievable to hear that she was assigned to a dorm with a man all of a sudden. .

He was about to tell Fu Wanying about Li Xiruo's identity, but Chen Xin said thoughtfully, "The three of us share one room, Brother Li and Miss Fu each share one room."

He remembered how Fu Wanying looked at Li Xiruo's expression and actions at night that day, and always felt that it was unusual. Even if Li Xiruo was allowed to restore her status as a woman in front of Fu Wanying, he didn't want them to be together.

Liu Yusheng didn't know what he was thinking, and immediately spread his hands, how could the three of them sleep in the same bed.

Li Xiruo looked at Chen Dao: "I can share a room with my elder brother." Anyway, Li Tian is just a puppet.

Chen Xin immediately vetoed: "Of course not."

He gritted his teeth secretly, secretly blaming Li Xi if he didn't know what a male and female defense was, even if he was a biological brother and sister, they were not so close.

Li Xiruo looked at Chen Xin's resolute attitude, turned her head to look at Li Tian who was still a puppet, and nodded, anyway, she didn't suffer.

Liu Yusheng was crying at the side, while Fu Wanying looked at Chen Xin with horrified eyes. She thought that Chen Xin's possessiveness had developed to the point that even men, even his own brother, could not get close to Li Xiruo, so she came up with this idea. I couldn't stop being amazed by the method.

Not long after the few people entered the house, Liu Yusheng sneaked out again, but after a while, he came back with news, and said to Chen Dao, "I just went out to inquire, guess what?"

Chen Xin turned a page of the book, even if he ignored Liu Yusheng, Liu Yusheng would explain the ins and outs clearly.

Sure enough, Liu Yusheng was silent for a while, then couldn't hold it anymore, and said to Chen Dao, "Shen Chong is the son of Shen Su, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy. , but after all, he is at the feet of the emperor, and he lives a carefree life, but he never thought that he would be demoted if he bumped into a nobleman unintentionally."

Although on the surface, he has been promoted to the seventh rank, there is no way out in the poor and remote area of ​​Hehuai County. If Shen Chong goes there, it means that he will stay there for the rest of his life, and there is no possibility of returning to the capital.

Chen Xin paused while flipping the book: "I heard that Shen Su is a highly educated bachelor, and the emperor also attaches great importance to him."

However, when he thought of Shen Su's official position, his son's fate of being demoted was unavoidable, and he couldn't help lamenting that they had studied hard for so many years and pursued their careers, but in the end they couldn't match the words of those dignitaries and angered them. I can only watch helplessly as I walk into a dead end with no solution.Years of studying hard, if you can't be a master, everything will become meaningless.

Chen Xin immediately felt pity for Shen Chong: "No wonder he looks depressed, it turns out he already knew his way."

Liu Yusheng shook his head: "This is not the worst. When I went to chat with his followers just now, I saw his wife, Xu Youlian, teasing those monks everywhere. If I hadn't run away Hurry up, maybe she will be murdered by her right now. You say that Mrs. Shen seems to be quite pitiful, should we tell his wife about these behaviors. "

Chen Xin put down the book, stared at Liu Yusheng and said, "Brother Liu, this is his wife. Master Shen will naturally know better than us what kind of character she is. The only thing we can do now is not to follow his steps. follow suit."
