No one could imagine what kind of feeling Wang Mude felt in his heart when he took out the gold medal from Li Mi's talisman bag.

Li Mi, a young man, once again refreshed his cognition!

Since the emperor appointed another famous commander, as a eunuch guarding the town, Wang Mude has been looking forward to meeting this new famous commander, but at the same time, he doesn't want the famous commander to take the initiative to come to the door.

This complex and somewhat contradictory mood also reflects how special the official position of the famous commander is.

As a town guard eunuch, his task is to spy on the people, collect the voices of the people for the emperor, as well as the movements of local officialdom, as well as the movements of those vassal kings in the jurisdiction.

He also listed many suspects, and even became jealous because he suspected that other town guards and eunuchs had won the title of this commander.

said that he Wang Mude, except for the emperor in this world, who would have thought that the new famous commander would be a young man in his early twenties, and at the beginning of last year, he was still a person who relied on apprenticeship to sneak into the county government and become a small catcher!

Wang Mude stayed in the yamen of the institute for a long time, not because he was reluctant to leave, but because he needed time to calm down his mood, so he said goodbye to Li Mi tremblingly, and pretended to be arrogant and domineering, and left the yamen of the institute as if he were fleeing.

He thought that Li Mi couldn't withstand the trouble caused by Zhao Guangling, but now it seems that Li Mi's ability is really great!

If Li Mi used his identity as a famous commander to send a secret report to the emperor, and mentioned Zhao Guangling's participation in the martial arts examination at all, there would be no trouble at all.

In fact, Li Mi also thought about doing this, but he didn't do it in the end, just like he had always done, he just gave the emperor a choice, and whatever the emperor chose, he didn't suffer.

But if you take the initiative to report Zhao Guangling's matter, with the emperor's thoughts, I am afraid that it will attract deeper suspicion, it is better to go with the flow, as long as you treat this matter as a trivial matter and show your attitude, everyone can feel this attitude, at least it is fair and upright, this is the right approach.

In any case, Wang Mude was finally sent away, but Zhao Guangling was not grateful to Li Mi, but walked to the ink washing pool in the middle of the courtyard of the Institute of Reason, and squatted next to him in a silent daze.

He is a noble son, and he rarely cares so much about his image, Li Mi saw that he was a little lonely, so he also sat next to him, took out the cigarette pouch and cigarette stick, lit it, and handed it to Zhao Guangling.

Zhao Guangling took it and took a hard puff, the smoke covered his face, and he looked very melancholy.

"Regret it?"

Facing Li Mi's question, Zhao Guangling only smiled bitterly and said to Li Mi: "Wang Mude is right, I am too risky to take this step, if it really arouses the emperor's suspicion, it will really affect the entire family......

"Then why do you insist on it? Is the identity of a martial artist really so important? "Li Mi has always been not very sensitive to the ways of these wealthy families.

Zhao Guangling shook his head and said to Li Mi: "The important thing is not the title of Wuju people, but the emperor's attitude towards us and other relics of the previous dynasty. ”

"If he can accept me Zhao Guangling, it is equivalent to being willing to let me and others serve the imperial court, not only my Zhao family, but also the Yuan Dynasty Southern Courtyard of the previous dynasty and even the Mongolian Tartars, and many other old and young, these families are also a force to be reckoned with when they are united."

"Wang Mude, such a person who has no eggs, how can he know about state affairs, he is happy on the surface at the moment, but in fact he has internal and external troubles, you also heard Qin Liangyu girl say, the land of Sichuan and Shu is never peaceful, and the land of Liangguang is also ready to move, those red-haired ghosts are eyeing the Xijiang River and the coast, and the Jianzhou Jurchens in Liaodong are even more arrogant, and now there are Japanese countries disturbing the sea frontier......"

"To say something that only you and my brother can hear, how long can this kind of world last? If I don't wait to come forward, there will be eggs under the nest? ”

Zhao Guangling also poured out his heart and lungs, and when he said this, Li Mi was also full of emotion.

He never thought that only he could see the unstable future of the Ming Dynasty, this dynasty has begun to decline, this is obvious to all, the officialdom is dark and rotten, the court is deceitful, the frontier is full of fireworks, the domestic literati are drunk and dreaming of death, and there are civil officials whitewashing the peace, but there are always some people of insight who can see this worrying future!

Zhao Guangling saw that Li Mi was silent, and thought that Li Mi was frightened by his remarks, so he explained to Li Mi.

"Although you look ugly and are a troublemaker, I, Zhao Guangling, have already regarded you as a brother, and I am not afraid to tell you that in fact, taking the exam this time is not my wishful thinking, but a decision made by the entire clan in conjunction with other families."

"It's also a temptation, if the emperor and the court can tolerate me, they will naturally be able to accommodate other families, and there will be more people like me in the future, entering the court and the military world."

"But as Wang Mude worried, the emperor's heart is as deep as the sea, and the will of heaven is unpredictable, and no one dares to guarantee that the emperor will accept these, so my move is actually a big gamble......"

Zhao Guangling said very clearly, Li Mi is also very grateful for this trust, and at this time, take a serious look, Zhao Guangling's age is actually about the same as his Li Mi.

But the difference is that Li Mi is from the later generations, and has the psychological quality and mind of two lives, while he, Zhao Guangling, is an indigenous, at this age, to be able to have such knowledge, strictly speaking, it is much stronger than Li Mi.

Li Mi took the cigarette stick, took a puff of cigarette, then stood up, knocked off the cigarette ash on the sole of his shoe, patted his buttocks, and said to Zhao Guangling: "Let's go." ”

"Where?"

"Of course, I went to the yamen to verify my identity! I have to rush back to pack my things, and Ming'er will live in the tribute courtyard! ”

Zhao Guangling was slightly stunned, and then looked at Li Mi's back, a burst of warmth flowed in his heart, he smiled, and chased after him.

"I'm preparing for the exam, and I'm going to tell you again, I'm a good scholar, and my demeanor is a very important assessment......"

"Manners?"

"Well, you are also a blind person who has not read, I said it simply, that is, those who are ugly will not be taken, you look at those officials in the court, which one is not graceful and handsome?"

"So?"

"So those ugly dogs, don't be ashamed, if I look ugly, I would have dropped out of the exam a long time ago!"

Li Mi's eyes showed murderous aura, he clenched the handle of the knife, flicked his thumb, and slashed out three points!

Zhao Guangling turned a blind eye, and then said: "Hey, I have already persuaded Xiong Tingbi to let him stop taking the exam, he looks ugly, no matter how good he does in the exam, it will be useless, do you say?" ”

Although it turned a little stiff and made Xiong Tingbi, who was far away in Huguang, lie down with his gun, Li Mi finally put away the knife.

Li Mi looked at Zhao Guangling, who had a wicked smile on his face, and also laughed and mocked: "I don't think it's a problem to let you participate in the martial arts examination, your rotten mouth is the biggest problem, don't you have any other young people in your old Zhao family, like you, it's good to eat and wait for death, and what to talk about serving the court, and I'm not afraid of being embarrassed!" ”

Zhao Guangling snorted and said to Li Mi: "It's better like this, let's take a gamble and see who has a higher ranking, what do you think?" ”

Li Mi knew Zhao Guangling's details, and gambling with him was simply looking for abuse, but he couldn't admit defeat, so he asked, "What lottery do you want to bet on?" ”

Zhao Guangling smiled and said to Li Mi: "If I win, the broadsword will be mine, how about it?" ”

Li Mi also smiled, it turned out to be the idea of fighting the broadsword, this broadsword was cast by Qi Jiguang, and was transferred to Li Mi by Wang Shizhen, Li Mi didn't know much about swordsmanship, and he usually used it as a straight knife, and he also saved Li Mi a few times, saying that it was fake if he had no feelings.

But after all, these are things outside the body, and Zhao Guangling's brother, presumably, a broadsword is not rare, he has always wanted to give the sword out, but he has no name, and now Zhao Guangling took the initiative to mention it, and Li Mi agreed.

"What if you lose?"

"I lost? How could I lose, my son gives you Wenshu to practice every day, don't you know my ability? ”

Li Mi couldn't cry or laugh, this is simply a scoundrel!

"Now that you've won, what am I going to bet with you? You're all in my head! ”

Zhao Guangling knew that Li Mi was not a vulgar person, but it was precisely because of this that he occasionally uttered a vulgar sentence or two, which was more interesting.

"That's not necessarily, you can't do it, but your luck is better than mine, maybe you hit the big luck on the day of the exam, and really let you win the exam? Don't always think about calculating the benefits of others, and occasionally suffer losses, don't you hear that suffering losses is a blessing? ”

Li Mi glanced at him: "It's you who calculates the benefits of others, right?" Can't you suffer in exchange? ”

Zhao Guangling also smiled, and said to Li Mi: "I also suffer, if you are higher than me, I will let the sister in the family marry you, if you are placed in the previous dynasty, it will be a princess!" ”

Li Mi has actually heard Zhao Guangling say that the girl in his family is even more lawless than Zhen Mi, it is said that the lord of Guining County is avoiding this Zhao family girl, who is the number one villain in the Chu Palace, and has made the King of Chu blacklist......

"Wait! I'm a famous person, besides, your sister marries me, you are my eldest brother, and I have to give you a gift, and this sword will not fall into your hands when the time comes? ”

"I keep saying that I want to suffer, but in the end I am still calculating my Li!"

Zhao Guangling also smiled, and said to Li Mi: "I'll just say that ugly people can't pass the test, and if you say a word, you can say whether you dare to bet!" ”

Li Mi also couldn't cry or laugh, and Shicai also took Xiong Tingbi out to lie down with a gun, but now it is just a bright light to say that Li Mi is ugly!

"Okay, I'll bet with you! But I don't want a sister, I want a sister! ”

Zhao Guangling pouted and said: "My sister is already married, and my cousin has a person who has not yet left the cabinet, but she is older than me, and she is twenty-three or four, it's not that I slander my family, and I can't marry someone who can't marry at twenty-three or four, do you dare to ask for it?" ”

Li Mi also smiled: "You have become the eldest brother, and I am the one who suffers, but if I become your brother-in-law, it will be your turn to give me gifts, hahaha!" ”

Zhao Guangling glared at Li Mi, stretched out his palm, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!" Deal! ”

Li Mi also stretched out his palm, high-fived Zhao Guangling and swore an oath: "A word is a certainty!" ”

After the two high-fived, they also laughed, and went to the governor's yamen to check their identities, the governor's palace was too familiar with them, and it didn't take much trouble, and things were settled.

To tell the truth, Li Mi is one of the staff officers of this Wuju government test, and he is very clear about the various settings of the government test, and he is really suspected of cheating, but fortunately, he is not an invigilator, let alone a questioner, so he can barely say it.

After the two came back from the Governor's Palace, they simply packed up their things, and the next day they lived in the Wuju Tribute Courtyard near the Governor's Palace.
