Chapter 80: The Beginning of a New Era

"You...... You, Wang Xiu, don't think that you get carried away when you get the leader...... Ah...... You dare to hit me. ”

Before Wang Xiu's words completely fell, Zhu Rong was about to open his mouth to ridicule him, but Zhang Qiyuan decisively slapped Zhu Rong and beat Zhu Rong.

He Wei was stunned, Gao Xuan on the side was stunned, and Wang Xiu was also stunned, they didn't expect that Zhang Qiyuan would teach Zhu Rong a lesson, which was really beyond everyone's expectations.

"You...... Zhang Qiyuan, do you dare to ......" Zhu Rong was fanned, and finally came back to his senses and glared at Zhang Qiyuan fiercely.

Zhang Qiyuan's face was colorless, surprisingly calm, his eyes were cold and trembling, and he said coldly: "Get out." ”

Zhu Rong couldn't help but shiver, and then his face turned hideous, his eyes were red, and he shouted: "Zhang Qiyuan, you are a thief, if it weren't for you, ......"

Without waiting for Zhu Rong to continue, Zhang Qiyuan said sharply: "Zhu Rong, you don't look at what kind of place this is, you are dressed in white, and you dare to abuse Gongju people in front of the state school, you are really a thief." ”

Zhu Rong was taken aback by Zhang Qiyuan's sharp words, took two steps back, his Adam's apple was knotted, he didn't know what to say, and his eyelids couldn't stop jumping.

Wang Xiu glanced at Zhang Qiyuan thoughtfully, and admired in his heart, this guy is really a ghost! Replaced by the officialdom of later generations, it is definitely on the line, and you don't have a temper. How can Zhu Rong refute, don't say that there is no noise in front of the state school, that is, after Zhang Bang, his Zhu Rong's identity immediately declined, if he dares to do something to him and Zhang Qiyuan, it will really weigh one or two.

There is a Song generation, although the status of the tribute people is not very noble, only they are qualified to participate in the Ministry of Rites Examination of the identity of the lifter, not for life, but that is also the first step for the scholar to enter the body, if you really dare to hit the tribute person, the local government will not hesitate to punish the power of the instrument, that is the seed of the reader.

He glanced at Zhu Rong with disdain, looked at Gao Xuan thoughtfully, smiled indifferently, and turned to leave.

Zhang Qiyuan smiled, arched his hand to the surrounding merchants, and said with a gentle attitude: "I'll go back first." ”

In the eyes of everyone present, Wang Xiu's departure was very arrogant and did not greet anyone, but Zhang Qiyuan was gentle and elegant, at least he said hello and made a decision. In fact, Zhang Qiyuan has his own plans and has always given people the best image.

Wang Xiu is different, the solution to the test is just a process, it can't be called the road to heaven at all, there are hundreds of military states in the world, and there are only hundreds of people who can get Jinshi, most of them are lowly Tongjinshi, even if Chenzhou is a big state, it is impossible to be admitted to many people, his reputation has long been slowly spread with the theory of Xinxue, and there is no need to act in front of Chenzhou Shizi at all.

On the way, Zhang Qiyuan talked and laughed with Wang Xiu, so that He Wei was a little surprised, the attitude of the two was quite ambiguous, and those who didn't know thought they had a relationship.

"I'm going to participate in the tribute next year, I don't know when my brother will leave?"

Zhang Qiyuan seems to care about Wang Xiu very much, but he always feels awkward, so much so that He Wei rolls his eyes.

Wang Xiu smiled faintly and said, "I'll talk about it after I return to Shangshui, and I'm not in a hurry to go to Kaifeng, after all, it's not far away." ”

Zhang Qiyuan smiled and said, "Also, I also want to go back, why don't we go north together?" ”

Brother-in-law? The corners of Wang Xiu's mouth twitched, in later generations, this word is synonymous with marrying a sister, and he smiled brightly: "That dare is good, but I am uncertain, I am afraid that you will be delayed going north." ”

Obviously, Zhang Qiyuan was also quite disappointed when he refused politely, in all fairness, he had a trace of friendship with Wang Xiu at the moment of Zhang Bang, which had nothing to do with any likes and dislikes, purely in terms of interests.

He has already thought about it, isn't it the Wang family's, Wang Xiu's compensation for him is obviously still mustard, it's a big deal to make another step, anyway, he hasn't gone to Kaifeng yet, and there is time to deepen the relationship, which is to maximize benefits.

Of course, he also has deeper considerations, if he wants to defeat a person, then he should be friends with him first, and get to know this person in depth, so that he can have a chance, once he has the opportunity, he will never mind hitting Wang Xiu, there is no hatred, let alone good and evil, this is the reality. Wang Xiu, who gave him the impression that Xiaoqiang can always rise surprisingly in the impossible, and he also listed Wang Xiu as the ultimate object of attention.

When they arrived at the inn, they separated, Wang Xiu took Zong Liang and Feng Yuan to the house, excitedly why didn't he go with him, he wanted to arrange it well, and he was going to get completely drunk at night.

Zhang Qiyuan smiled and parted with He Wei, and after entering the guest room, the smiling face suddenly darkened, like the frost of winter.

Wang Xiu went all the way to the deceased old man's house, and when the children heard Zong Liang's excited words, they immediately burst into cheers, Li Caiwei held Wang Xiu's arm, and her beautiful eyes were full of adoring little stars.

It is undeniable that although Li Caiwei is thin and malnourished, after a few days of recuperation, her pale face has a hint of redness, she is dressed cleanly, and her beautiful face is gradually revealed.

Li Changsheng is almost thirteen years old, and the hard life has already honed him, he looked at Wang Xiu in surprise, and said, "Sir, Mr. won the first." ”

Wang Xiu nodded, but he was a little awkward about the word sir, these children were only seven or eight years old with him, and the biggest difference was only five years old with him.

"This ...... There's something I want to tell you about this. ”

"Sir, please." Liu Renfeng preemptively said.

Wang Xiu organized the language as much as possible, and said slowly: "Since I have passed the exam, I will return to Shangshui in two days, and I will prepare to go to Kaifeng ......."

Having said this, he obviously felt that Li Caixuan's body was trembling, and he couldn't help but stop and said with concern: "Caixuan, what's wrong?" ”

Li Caixuan's dark starry eyes were watery, and she said with a little cry: "Sir, don't Caixuan?" ”

"Sister, what are you crying about?" Li Changsheng glared at his sister, and he felt uncomfortable.

Looking at the children with different faces, Wang Xiu didn't know what to say, he hurriedly said, "No, no." He stroked Li Caixuan's hair again, and said softly: "How can I bear to leave Caixuan behind." ”

Li Caixuan burst into tears and laughed, shook Wang Xiu's arm, and said coquettishly: "Mr. is good or bad." ”

Wang Xiu pinched his nose and said with a smile: "Okay, all of you, are you willing to go to Shangshui with me?" ”

"Going to Shangshui?" Zong Liang subconsciously looked at Li Changsheng and Liu Renfeng, he was an honest child and rarely assertive.

Can't complain about Zongliang, they are children in the end, after the death of the old man, they are like losing their backbone, where do they have any opinions, go to a completely unfamiliar place to start from the heart, they can't help but look at each other, I don't know what to do.

Seeing this, Wang Xiu also knew that what he said was too hard, and he didn't consider the feelings of the children, after all, they still wore filial piety for the elderly, and they were very confused about the road ahead, he calmed down and said patiently: "Lao Su has gone, what can you do if you stay in Wanqiu?" I also have some industries in Shangshui, you can help do some work when you go, and you can study if you want to study. His eyes turned to Feng Yuan and Qiu Yun, and he said with a smile: "I also know a skilled knot, who can learn guns, sticks, bows, and horses." ”

Feng Yuan and Qiu Yun's eyes lit up first, and their eyes turned to Zong Liang and Li Changsheng in unison.

Zong Liang gritted his teeth and said cautiously: "Sir, we are willing to go back with you, can you let us study?" ”

Wang Xiu smiled indifferently and said, "Why not, I promise the old dormitory students to take care of you, don't underestimate me, I have compiled some books by myself, you can learn if you are interested." Of course, you usually have to help me take care of the business, my eldest sister is a big shopkeeper, making sugar for a living. ”

"White sugar, it's frosted sugar......" Li Caixuan's eyes were full of little stars, and she looked like a greedy cat.

Don't laugh at it, for poor children, the welfare policy of the Great Song Dynasty is generous, although they are not even unable to eat salt, but they can never eat exquisite food. Frosting sugar, in particular, is still a high-end consumer product in this era, and it is definitely full of temptation for these children.

"Alright, look at your gluttonous cats." Wang Xiu smiled, looked at the children who were moved, and thought about their hard months, and felt sad for no reason.

"Mr. ......"

"Don't call me sir, do I look that old?" Wang Xiu really can't stand this title.

Li Caixuan tilted her little head, a pair of beautiful eyes lingered, Qianqiansu put her fingers on her lips, and said with a smile: "Seeing that Mr. is so young, he should be called Mr." ”

The corners of Wang Xiu's mouth twitched, a drop of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he smiled bitterly: "Mr. is young, he should be called sir." ”

Bo Zhang said weakly: "It's better to call Mr. , don't change it." ”

"Sir?" Wang Xiu shook his head helplessly, there is really no good name, big brother can't do it, uncle? Forget it, he's not that old, he gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it." Let's just call it that, at least Mr. looks younger. ”

"Sir." Li Caixuan smiled and shouted heartlessly.

"I'll be gone in a few days." Wang Xiu looked at Li Caixuan dotingly, he didn't think at all about what nine malnourished and naΓ―ve boys meant to him and to this era! The fifteenth son of the royal family, the name that made the infinite reverie and admiration of the talented men of later generations, brought together nine people on this day, and really began to open an era! xh118
