"Father, how much is my family's real estate money and food?"

Faced with the fifth Lun's rhetorical question, the fifth tyrant resisted the urge to slash with a knife.

"Not much, after you repaired the righteous warehouse, there are fewer and fewer."

"Then my family's reading is high?"

The fifth tyrant silently didn't answer, but the weapon in his hand was a little stronger, and when it collided with the fifth lun's knife, it shocked the grandson's palm numb.

The old man is unhappy, their family is still messing around in the county and township for two hundred years, and the highest is a township husband, who is not qualified to read the valve, and they are all low to the horizon, shame.

Fifth Lun asked again: "I have been in primary school for a few years, although I am among the top ten in the county, but I have only learned the Analects of Filial Piety. ”

"What are the Five Classics and Six Classics of Filial Piety, anyway, the old man can't understand it, how can he compare the high and low?"

The fifth tyrant was very unhappy, hooked the knife that stuck the fifth lun, and threw it out of the way, ending this morning's contest - the fifth lun has been very interested in martial arts recently, and the two of them have to practice for a while every day.

Wu Lun handed his grandfather a sweat towel and said with a smile: "Since none of the three are outstanding, why do you take turns to get rid of me as an official from the county order to the county yin?" ”

"Because you are filial and talented." The fifth tyrant does not think twice, his own children are full of advantages.

But he said it too broadly, and Wu Lun asked the key: "How do they know that I have all the virtue and ability?" ”

He asked himself: "Because my pear let me learn, I have already given up my reputation!" When something goes wrong, people come uninvited. ”

What was most important in the first century AD? Fame!

As the so-called ten years of window, no one asked, and in one fell swoop became famous all over the world. Fifth Lun found that it was too important to have a good reputation in these years. There is no imperial examination in the new dynasty, only inspection, although the state and county recommendation mainly considers the clan prestige, valve reading and old relations, but every year there will still be a few bitter children who jump to the dragon gate, relying on the name of filial piety in the county.

"Father, have you heard of the deeds of the Maoling Heroes?"

"I know." The fifth tyrant is familiar with this person, and the fifth Lun is heard from people in the county seat.

Yuan She's father was Nanyang Taishou when Emperor Han Ai, after Yuan Taishou died, Yuan Shi went to the funeral, and actually refused the tens of millions of funeral money sent by local heroes and officials! Tens of millions of five baht money, at that time, Wang Mang had not messed up, prices had not skyrocketed, and the purchasing power was equivalent to tens of millions of RMB in later generations.

Not only did he regard money as dung, but he also lived in the tomb in accordance with strict Confucian etiquette and kept filial piety for his father for three years.

Because of the moral corruption at the end of the Han Dynasty, there were not many people who fulfilled the three-year filial piety, coupled with the refusal of money, for a time the original name was Manjingshi.

So the well-dressed and admiring him, and as soon as the funeral was over, the messengers who invited him to be the governor of the county came like a wind, and the scholars who admired him also gathered from all directions, bringing their own dry food, and willing to be a guest—when he heard that the seventh leopard had gone to be a horse boy for Yuan She.

Even the fifth tyrant admired this person very much, and said with a smile: "If the old man is thirty years younger, or if he was born decades early, maybe he will also be a guest of the original party." ”

In the fifth Lun's view, although this original involvement has the background of the second generation of officials, it still depends on filial piety to set off such a big reputation. With this reputation, he was only twenty years old, and he was requisitioned as a 600-stone county order by the then Great Situ Shidan. The locals were also very obedient to the original wade, and feared his guests, and the originally turbulent county town suddenly became well-behaved, and the people of the time praised it as "rule without words".

Now although Yuan Shi is no longer an official, his reputation is still well-known, and the county lords and Chang'an, Wuling light chivalrous and evil boys all admire him, and Yuan Juxian is more effective than Jingwei Dayin. Even Emperor Wang Mang noticed this person, and asked the officials to arrest him under the pretext of committing crimes against his guests several times, and finally acquitted him, just because he was afraid that killing him would cause a backlash from the heroes in Guanzhong.

There are many second-generation officials and filial sons in the world, but there are only ones who can mix with the original involvement, and now even the children of the neighboring counties know the name of the original giant.

Therefore, people cannot only rely on their own struggles, but also have to consider the historical process. Conform to the fashion of the times, learn to hype yourself, and combine resources and fame to take off.

Referring to the successful experience of the original hero, after the fifth Lun self-examined, he found that he was completely backward in family property, valve reading, and learning, and there were only two real core competitiveness.

One is the knowledge of being a traverser, which he can rely on to slowly farm and operate, and lay a solid foundation for his own clan, which is his internal hard power

The second is to expand his reputation like a snowball, so that he can have a certain influence in the local area, so that he can respond to the chaos in the world. Otherwise, there are so many people in Guanzhong, why should others take refuge in you and not others? This is external soft power.

Therefore, in the face of the fact that Jun Dayin sent Jing Dan to get rid of it, there were only two choices in front of Fifth Lun.

Is it to be a small clerk in the city hall, content to say hello to the mayor once in a while? Or resign again and let the fame roll a little bigger!

Fifth Lun chose the latter.

He couldn't tell his grandfather all these things, so he only pretended to be proud and said, "Is my instrument a measure that the little master of the room can accommodate?" ”

"Father, do you believe it or not? Every time I resign, the next time someone asks me to do it, the bigger the rank! ”

The fifth tyrant smacked him: "You little, you are not very old, you have a lot of appetite, you actually think that the county officials are small!" ”

Having said that, the fifth tyrant no longer bothered about this matter, and was only worried: "The Jun Yin faction's literary rejection is worthy of you, and you directly refuse, what if you offend him?" ”

His family has completely turned against the first clan and the seventh clan, and if the county is also convicted, the trouble is really a bit big.

This is the risk of resignation, if Jun Yin is narrow-minded, maybe he will be furious and send someone to tie up the fifth Lun.

But Wu Lun had already inquired about it, and this "Sanfu Instrument Zhang Zixiao" at least seemed to be an upright official, and he should not be embarrassed for himself. Looking at Jing Dan's attitude that day, he is also a reasonable person with emotional intelligence, so that the fifth Lun dares to give it a go, and the bicycle becomes a motorcycle!

The grandfather and grandson practiced the ring knife and hook setting for a while, and when they were about to eat, the fifth grid of the housekeeper came in a hurry, and looked at the happy look on his face, and he didn't know that he thought he was hugging his grandson.

The fifth grid was indeed very excited, trembling his hands, and presented a wooden note.

"The head of the family, Xiao Langjun, someone claims to be a guest of the Wang family of Changping Pavilion, and he is ordered by Qiong (qióng) to become a marquis, and he came to the fifth mile to post."

"Qiong Chenghou!?" The fifth tyrant was taken aback when he heard this, snatched the post composed of two wooden boards, opened the envelope and looked at it, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and slapped the iron palm on the fifth lun's shoulder, almost dislocating alune.

"Good Lun'er! Wang Yuan, Marquis of Qiongcheng, named and invited you to go to Changping Hall for a banquet at 9 o'clock in September! ”

……

At noon on September 8, the Fifth Lun sat in the carriage and listened impatiently to the chatter of the Fifth Fortune who was driving the carriage for him.

"Xiao Langjun, Qiongcheng Hou Wang's family, that's this county...... No, it's the biggest power in the county. The Changping Pavilion in the north of the county is the palace of the former dynasty, but now it has been given to the Marquis of Qiongcheng as a manor, and people who have been there say that it is too big! ”

The excitement of the fifth blessing was exactly the same as that of his father, and even the fifth tyrant when they learned that Qiong Chenghou had sent an invitation, was it necessary to be so happy? Fifth Lun disagreed.

At first, he thought that the Marquis of Qiongcheng was surnamed Wang, or the royal family of the new dynasty, but later learned that it was the same surname and different sects.

The development of Qiong Chenghou has to start from the time of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, that Liu Yi was already an orphan of the witch curse, and he had been in the folk when he was young, and he liked cockfighting and horse fighting the most. His most interesting "chicken friend" is called Wang Fengguang, who lives in Changling.

Later, Liu Ying was embraced as the emperor by the general Huo Guang, and remembered his friendship with Wang Fengguang in the past, so he included his daughter in the harem......

Wait, I take you as a brother, and you want to sleep with my daughter?

Fifth Lun was stunned by this relationship, he was a history novice, and he didn't know anything about the unpopular era of Zhaoxuan Zhongxing, so he could only rely on inquiry.

Later, there was a series of complicated political battles and palace battles, and the Wang family became the queen by mistake, and Wang Fengguang became the prince and the marquis. The family has continued to this day, and Wang Yuan is the fifth generation of Qiongcheng Marquis.

Looking at the flattered reaction of the fifth tyrant and others, the Marquis of Qiongcheng's Mansion is indeed the first local tyrant in the county, and his hands and eyes are sky-wide, which is not comparable to a small family like them.

Fifth Lun couldn't help scratching his head: "Didn't you say that the sword of the previous dynasty couldn't kill the officials of the current dynasty, why did the relatives of the Han Dynasty mix so well in the new dynasty?" ”

He went to the banquet this time, not because the fifth tyrant threatened to pick up fire tongs, nor because he was afraid of offending the Marquis of Qiongcheng, but because the fifth Lun thought: "At Wang Yuan's banquet, all the people invited are the big clans of Luyou in various counties, and it is necessary to go to the meeting in advance." These people are all local powerhouses, and when the world changes in the future, they may be partners or my ......."

"Enemy!"

Changping Hall is in the north of the county, and it is a whole day away from the south of the county where the fifth mile is located, so you have to leave in advance and go to the county seat for the night.

Along the way, Wu Lun's feeling was very different from when he came back from the county middle school some time ago.

Most of the people I met on the road were the first characters in Linqu Township: a merchant in plain white clothes, a farmer who carried rice to the market barefoot, and a young man who wore a short sword and a long sword. When they met the carriage of the fifth lun, they would whisper a few words to their companions, and then stare at the fifth lun as if they were saluting, and when the fifth lun looked back, the passers-by smiled and waved at him.

"I've seen the Fifth King."

"Where are you going?"

Fifth Lun had to promise one by one, this kind of courtesy used to have to go back to the fifth mile, but now he walked in the township, but he had to return the salute in three steps, it seems that the reputation has indeed spread, but there is some trouble.

The Fifth Blessing was proud, and whenever others asked them about their itinerary, he would proudly say loudly: "Marquis Qiongcheng invites the little sect master to go to the Changping Pavilion and go to the Chongyang Banquet!" ”

Fifth Lun kicked him, and Fifth Fu still felt aggrieved: "Xiao Langjun, the invitation of Qiong Chenghou is so expensive, and the people who attend the meeting are either well-dressed and noble in this county, or Chang'an officials." The first clan called the township in vain, but it was never invited once, and now Xiao Langjun can go, which is a big face for the fifth clan! ”

"How old, bigger than the county Yin Piju?" Fifth Lun asked coldly.

The fifth blessing didn't hear the master's unhappiness, and after thinking about it, he said: "I think it's about the same, Jun Yin will be replaced in a few years, but Qiong Chenghou has been here for several generations." ”

Sure enough, it is Ning minus 2,000 stones, don't bear the heroes, everyone, the fifth Lun has some curiosity, to see the great heroes of this era!

On the next road, the fifth Lun will still receive frequent courtesy, and even the children of the first clan will take the initiative to walk around for fear of offending.

When passing by a pavilion, the pavilion chief also greeted him warmly, and asked Wu Lun to sit in the pavilion and rest his feet, and help him feed the horses for free.

After the fifth Lun refused politely, he continued to move forward, but a few passers-by who were resting in the pavilion pointed to the carriage in the distance, and said to a light man wearing a hat, wearing a strong suit, and carrying a bow on his back: "Maoling people, look, that is the fifth Lun who has recently moved the whole county!" ”

"So that's him? It's really young. ”

The light man looked up, revealing a beard. His eyes followed the Fifth Lun, and then unhurriedly drank the water poured for him by the pavilion guard, got up and went to untie the horse, turned over, and with a slight clamp between his legs, he followed the rutted marks of the Fifth Lun's master and servant, and walked away not far away.

……

Although Changling is prosperous, it is not to the extent that the road is shoulder to shoulder, and it will not take long to reach the junction of the two townships. Within a mile or two, only one car in front was left driving slowly, and the rider behind followed slowly, getting closer and closer.

"What's the parking?"

Fifth Lun opened his eyes and looked at Fifth Fu, but saw that he got out of the car with an ugly face, pulled a few leaves on the side of the road, covered his stomach and said embarrassedly: "Lang Jun, I'm going to squat." ”

"Why don't you go when you're at home? Remember to go farther away and don't smoke me. Fifth Lun waved his hand and told this guy to solve it quickly.

There was no toilet next to it, and the fifth blessing was already sweating profusely, drilling around in the woods, and finally found a good place, so he untied his belt and squatted down and sighed: "It's dangerous!" ”

And Fifth Lun waited boredly in the car, looking up at the white clouds in the autumn, until the sound of the horse's hooves was getting closer and closer, and he turned his head alarmedly.

But what I saw was a jade-topped licorice-yellow horse, and the knight on it wore a sunshade hat, a black linen suit, and a medium-length ring knife at his waist - it was not very peaceful in recent years, and the new dynasty only forbade crossbows and armor, and it was not surprising that the people could hold bows and knives.

The knight stopped ten steps behind the carriage, raised his head and met the eyes of the fifth lun, and said, "Dare to ask, but the car is two concessions and two resignations of the fifth lun?" ”

"Exactly."

Listening to the accent is from another county, the fifth Lun promised, seeing that this person gave up, he encountered many similar situations along the way, and thought it was a hello, so he also planned to return the gift.

Unexpectedly, this man actually took off the bow he was carrying behind his back, and he was about to aim for the fifth lun! The words took a turn for the worse!

"Fifth Fish."

"I have been entrusted by men to come and kill you!"
