After a moment of silence, he arched his hand and said: "My name is Ma Kongming, and I don't know the name of Gongzi. ”

The scholar knew his name, but he still declared his name, apparently wanting to make friends with the scholar.

The scholar naturally understood this, and smiled and arched his hand: "In Xia Su Qingzhe, I hope to have the opportunity to fight side by side with General Ma in the future." ”

Ma Kongming nodded and said with a smile: "Although I am not a scholar myself, I can see that you are very knowledgeable, why don't we go for a drink together?" ”

Su Qingzhe refused with a smile: "There will be an exam tomorrow." ”

Ma Kongming laughed and said, "Yes, the exam is important, then I'll invite you to drink another day." ”

Su Qingzhe bowed slightly, put away his smile and said: "Since Brother Ma regards Su as a friend, Su will say more, and ask Brother Ma to remind Ling Yuezhang to pay more attention to the imperial examination, this imperial examination may be just a task for him, but for many examiners, it is their future, I hope he can understand this." ”

With that, he arched his hand and turned to leave.

Ma Kongming looked at the other party's back and sighed, in the past, he looked down on these nerds at all, but now his mind has completely changed, Lu Jieshuai is a reader, Zhang Dezhong is a reader, and this Su Qingzhe is also a reader.

In his opinion, the brains of some people who read books are indeed different from those of ordinary people.

From the reminder of the other party's words, coupled with what Xuankong said in the teahouse just now, Ma Kongming believed that there was indeed a problem with the imperial examination this time, and it seemed that he needed to talk to his father-in-law immediately.

Thinking of this, he strode back to the house, walked all the way to the study, and when he passed through the courtyard, he saw Lin Renzhao who was practicing martial arts, and nodded secretly in his heart.

knocked on the door of the study, but there was no response inside, he pushed the door in, only to see that the study was empty, and there was no figure of Zhang Dezhong.

He grabbed a family member and asked, "Where is the old man?" ”

Jia Ding replied: "It seems to be out of the house." ”

Ma Kongming nodded, returned to his room, and found his wife who was folding clothes in the bedroom, he stepped forward and asked, "Where has my father-in-law gone?" ”

"My father went to Muzhou, and he left in the afternoon, what's wrong?" Zhang Ziyi didn't raise his head.

Ma Kongming was taken aback and said hurriedly: "Why did he suddenly go to Muzhou?" ”

Zhang Ziyi put down the clothes in her hand, frowned, and said: "It seems that there was a homicide case in Muzhou, seven people died, and the case has not been solved, and the impact is very bad." My father rushed over, what's the matter, is something wrong? ”

Ma Kongming sat on the bed and said in a deep voice: "I heard that there seems to be a problem with this imperial examination, maybe the exam questions have been leaked, so I want to ask my father-in-law about it." ”

Zhang Ziyi's heart sank, she knew that the matter of the imperial examination was handed over to her father by Lu Jieshuai, and if something went wrong, her father would inevitably be held accountable.

Ma Kongming said in a deep voice: "I remember that my father-in-law seems to have handed over this matter to his student surnamed Lu, right?" ”

Zhang Ziyi glanced at him and said, "It's Lu Zhi, I've been here several times, why don't you even remember people's names." ”

Ma Kongming glared and said, "That kid looks like his eyes are above the top, why should I remember his name." ”

Zhang Ziyi sighed: "People are scholars, and they are Jinshi, so they will naturally have the arrogance of scholars." ”

"Bullshit!" Ma Kongming said angrily: "Lu Jieshuai is not a jinshi, so he is not as arrogant as this Laoshizi!" ”

"What did you just say?" Zhang Ziyi looked at Ma Kongming, with no expression.

Ma Kongming was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I said I just let out a fart." "If he is seen by the northern martial arts people, he will not believe that he is the leader of the Yellow River Gang who swallows mountains and rivers for fear of being killed.

He hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Well, I'll go and ask the kid." With that, he hurried out the door.

"Come back."

Ma Kongming immediately turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhang Ziyi walked to the door, closed the door, and said lightly: "What if it was really the exam question he leaked?" ”

Ma Kongming said angrily: "Then I will arrest him and ask him for guilt!" ”

Zhang Ziyi shook her head and said, "If it is really the exam question that he leaked, he won't tell you at all, and you will only make him alert if you ask him." ”

Ma Kongming was shocked, yes, he was still too reckless, he knew that his wife had always been resourceful, and asked, "Then what do you say?" ”

Zhang Ziyi took a few steps back and forth, and said softly: "He is his father's student, if he really does this, his father will not escape responsibility, so we have to find out the evidence of his guilt and report him to Lu Jieshuai, so that we should be able to make up for it." ”

"Okay, I'll investigate tomorrow." Ma Kongming was about to nod, but his face suddenly changed, and he said, "Oops, it's broken." ”

"What's wrong?"

Ma Kongming patted his head and said, "Lu Jieshuai may have to go somewhere tomorrow, and he wants me to protect him." ”

Zhang Ziyihu was suspicious: "Wasn't he all protected by Miss Li before?" How did you suddenly get protected? ”

"I don't know, maybe there's something wrong with Miss Li."

Zhang Ziyi took a few steps back and forth and said, "Then why don't I investigate." ”

"How's that going to work?" Ma Kongming shook his head again and again: "That's it, I'll let Qi Zhen go tomorrow." ”

Zhang Ziyi was quite relieved of Qi Zhen, and nodded: "That's okay." ”

……

Early the next morning.

In a side hall, Li Muyi was transfiguring Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan sat still, and asked casually: "Mr. Li, this disappearance is too troublesome, it takes so long every time, is there any such thing as a disguise mask that can be used as soon as you wear it?" ”

Li Muyi smiled and said: "There is indeed one, but it takes more than half a month to make this kind of thing, if you need it, I will help you make one when you go back." ”

Lu Yuan smiled: "Okay, then there will be Mr. Lao." ”

He thought that he would definitely travel in small clothes from time to time in the future, and it would be much more convenient to have a disguise mask.

After this trip to the imperial examination, he was deeply aware of the benefits of private interviews with Weifu, and the officials he knew might just be one of their faces, and he really wanted to see what these people were like behind him, and whether they were disguised in front of him.

"The festival is serious." Li Muyi said with a smile.

Lu Yuan asked again: "Mr. Li, are you and Mr. Qi still used to being in the Engineer Academy?" ”

Li Muyi hurriedly said: "It's very customary, it's just that the envoy of the royal court and the envoy of the Lu court did not arrange specific positions for the two of us, and I don't know ......."

Lu Yuan nodded and said: "This is what I mean, I will transfer some people from the military camp for the two of you in a few days, and when the transferred people come, I plan to set up an iron-making department, and the two of them will serve as the commanders." ”

"Thank you, Jieshuai!" Li Muyi was overjoyed, and as soon as he heard the order, it was the name of the official position, and with this appointment, he was able to settle down in Hui'an Mansion.

After a pause, he cautiously spoke: "Jieshuai, Lao Qi and I have a lot of people under us, they are all skilled in forging, I don't know ......."

Lu Yuan immediately understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "That's okay, I plan to temporarily set the scale of the Iron Smelting Department to one hundred, and the Jiedu Mansion will provide three taels of silver per month, as long as they are willing, you can put them into the Iron Smelting Department!" ”

"Yes!" Li Muyi was overjoyed, in this way, the livelihood of all the disciples of the Hidden Sword Villa would be settled, and there would be no need to catch any bounties or take on some bodyguards or dart tasks.

After half a cup of tea, he took a bronze mirror and said, "Jie Shuai, it's okay." ”

Lu Yuan took the bronze mirror and looked at it, only to see that he had changed to the same appearance as yesterday, and nodded: "Mr. Hard." ”

"Don't dare, that subordinate has retired." Li Mu bowed and said.

After speaking, he walked backwards out of the bedroom, and when he passed through the lobby, he saw a beautiful woman and a little girl, and he hurriedly lowered his head and saluted.

Then he took the matching sword from the guard outside the door, and then left the Jiedu Mansion through the side door.

All the way back to an inn in the south of the city, Li Muyi returned to his room with a smile on his face, and after drinking a cup of tea, he paced back and forth in the room, thinking that all his disciples could live a peaceful life in the future, he couldn't stop smiling on his face.

After thinking for a while, he gradually stabilized, pushed the door out, came to the door next door, and knocked on the door.

Naturally, it was Qi Guangzi who opened the door, he didn't seem to have slept all night, and his face was covered with dark circles.

"What's the matter, come here early in the morning." Qi Guangzi said impatiently.

Li Muyi smiled and said: "Early in the morning, I went to Jiedu Mansion and changed Lu Jieshuai's appearance. ”

Qi Guangzi snorted and said, "Find me something, if you have a fart, let it go." ”

Li Mu was not impressed at all, and said with a smile: "I'm here to tell you good news." ”

"What's the good news?" Qi Guangzi said suspiciously.

Li Muyi pushed open the door, entered the room, closed the door again, and then said: "When I went to Jiedu Mansion to change my appearance today, I mentioned to Lu Jieshuai about our position. ”

"What did he say?" Qi Guangzi said urgently.

Li Muyi squinted his eyes and said: "He said that he was going to set up an iron-making department, although he didn't say it explicitly, but he vaguely expressed that I would be the director and you would be the deputy director." ”
