A wide four-cornered table with eight immortals, Li San's three younger sisters, sat down in turn, although they were peasant women, they all looked upright. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Li San's wife sat next to his parents, and when they saw Li San and Chen Yue entering the house, the family stood up to welcome them.
"It's all my own family, so I don't need to do it."
Chen Yue hurriedly asked the second elder to sit down, and several younger sisters were also called to sit by Li San. The lady even gave Chen Yue a salute. Chen Yue also returned the salute with fists with both hands.
Then it was to sit down, Chen Yue first toasted Li San's parents, and then invited Li San's sisters to a cup. Except for Li Xiaomei, Li San's other two younger sisters couldn't drink.
Li San opened a bottle of medicinal wine that the two of them drank on weekdays and filled it for his father. A meal of wine until late at night, Fang dispersed!
Chen Yue prevented Li San from sending him home, and walked home alone.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day it was dawn. Li San came to Chen Yue's house early in the morning and knocked on the door, Chen Yue had already finished his morning class. The two didn't talk much, cleaned up, and had breakfast with Li Xiaomei. went on the road with Li Sanqi.
The classmates who made the appointment also met in Qingping Town, Li San was naturally speechless, and he didn't understand the literati, Chen Yue only asked him to deal with it, no need to say much.
After waiting for a while, Wang Zhenjia and several neighbors who testified also came. Li San went to the town post station and hired a mule-horse open-top cart and a flatbed ox cart. Half a tael of silver was used.
This time, with Chen Yue and Li San, he went to the county to defend Ding Yi as a scholar, and invited a total of three, namely Tongsheng Zhao Jiadi, Tongsheng Wang Yixian, and Tongsheng Qian Shuren.
Because they were classmates who all called their names, several scholars shared a mule and horse cart, and Li San joined Wang Zhenjia and his neighbors to ride in an ox cart.
This is the rule of a scholar, and the style of doing is not allowed to be exceeded even if it is a town armor. Non-meritorious names are not eligible to share the same car.
When the two cars arrived at the head of the town, Li San's flatbed ox cart was already full of people, all of whom knew that Li San was going to the county and hitchhiking. It wasn't until he couldn't squeeze it anymore that Chen Yue moved some of the things brought by his neighbors to the mule cart and then hit the road.
To the east of Qingping Town, it passes through several towns one after another. There are many people, and this speed can't catch up, and the scholars on the mule cart are all literati, so they are naturally quiet and content. Li Sancheng's ox cart has never stopped since it left the town. All kinds of shouts and laughter are non-stop.
The mule and horse drove the way at a fast speed, and the two lanterns in front of the mule and horse carriage were replaced with Chen Yue's name. Such ordinary people would not dare to stop the frame of the reader. At each line, you have to stop and wait for the ox cart.
From the time of the hour to the noon, he did not rush to the county seat, so he had to fight in the nearest town.
Naturally, there were not so many rules for meal time, so Wang Zhenjia and Li San were invited to a separate table with the three scholars.
Other neighbors didn't have this treatment, but Chen Yue asked Li San to open another table of meat and vegetarian tables and invited the neighbors in the same car.
Wang Zhenjia was fortunate to have a table to eat with the three scholars, naturally he was honored, his old face was flushed, and he was already a little drunk when he arrived at Xisan.
A group of people, two cars, cleaned up their moods, and continued to board the car on the road, because there was something, they didn't talk about it, and talked more about the recent situation.
It wasn't until more than half an hour later that the two cars finally arrived at the county seat, and Chen Yue took his classmates and Li San and others straight to the county office.
You can't see the county lord directly, and those who have merit can directly enter the inner office, which has various departments and doors, and a group of people go to the master's door. handed over Chen Yue and the names of the three scholars, waiting for the introduction of the master.
The effort was not big, and Master Li, the county magistrate, walked out unhurriedly with a folding fan in his hand, wearing a dark cyan robe and a scribe's scarf.
can be a county master, and his fame is generally a showman, and there are very few children. Chen Yue and three classmates hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
After the end of the school; "Tongsheng Zhao Jiadi," "Tongsheng Wang Yixian," "Tongsheng Qian Shuren." "Tong Sheng Chen Yue!" I've seen the master.
Master Li also humbly replied at this time, showing the demeanor of a scholar. Master Li invited a group of scholars into the study. Li San had no choice but to drink outside the door. He could not move around at will, and was watched tightly by a servant.
At this time, Chen Yue got up and handed over Li San's defense of Ding Servant, and Master Li opened the defense and read it carefully.
This defense was written by Chen Yue, and he knew it.
If the defense does not explain the reason, someone must guarantee it. In addition to Zhenjia, Chen Yue, as a famous scholar with children's merits, invited three classmates to be insured together, this amount, even Master Li should be surprised.
Master Li didn't dare to delay this matter, "A few people wait slowly, I'll ask the eldest master to check the defense book." A few slow teas. ”
Chen Yue and several children got up and looked at the farewell respectfully, and Master Li turned around and left. Several people also sat down again and waited for a response.
Qingping County's surname is Xue, his name is Xianping, and his word loves the people. Regardless of his status, his colleagues who are familiar with him know that this old man loves to be called by others the most.
Although this old man's name is Aimin, he has not had the opportunity to rise to the top and rise to a high position in the past few years.
Chen Yue's defense letter has a clear reason, the guarantor is innocent, and he is a scholar with a guarantee. Li San is indeed disabled, and he is the only child in the family.
Master Aimin read the defense book in the inner study, and decided to personally ascend to the court to ask about the matter, so as to keep a clear name in the world.
The fact that four children are insured by a villager is enough to be included in this year's evaluation, and it can even become a good story for the party that he once ruled. Maybe you have a chance to get promoted! After thinking about it, he can't be himself.
I didn't care about much, so I asked my relatives to send official clothes, put on official hats with both hands, and went straight to Master Li's study with Master Li in person.
Master Li called Chen Yue and the four of them out of the door and welcomed the county teacher inside. Li San had no choice but to continue drinking outside the door, and before the eldest master came, he was driven to the side, a place where the master couldn't see. Wait for the master to enter the study before he can continue to wait outside the door.
This Aimin master, for this year's evaluation, is more anxious than Chen Yue and others, and asks in detail the reasons mentioned in the defense book, and confirms it. Only then did Li San enter the room, and everything was to be verified to be true.
Only then did he slowly return to the back office, and as soon as he arrived at the back office, the elegance was all gone, "Master Li, quickly ascend to the hall, this year's evaluation of the master will all depend on this time." Maybe you can get promoted! Four scholars are enough to prove the master's reputation. ”
Chen Yue and the others waited for the old man to ascend to the church, and passed it into a village neighbor and town, and the old man who loved the people and Qingtian smiled even more in his heart.
It's not like no one in this county will be promoted, at least this weight is worth the fare. For general matters, the county is enough to deal with it, and the county is also the deputy of the county order.
That is, the deputy of the prefectural order.;
