Ai Zhixian sat in the room with his face covered, listening to Zhu Da and the others shouting and leaving, but he didn't make any moves, and after a while, Master Hu came in. ◢ With * dream * small ◢.1a

The two looked at each other speechlessly, there was a scene just now when Master Hu was hoarse and tried his best to testify against Ai Zheng, and now he really doesn't know what to say, Ai Zhixian wants to stare at it, but the whole face is swollen, and the expression changes will hurt, so he had to glance at it and continue to sit still, and Master Hu also sat aside.

Hu Shouqiu sat down, but a few people ran in outside, the woman cried and grabbed the ground, and the man was full of anger.

"Master, these people are too bold, they must be arrested"

"Get out! Get out! Oops! ”

Ai Zheng broke out and scolded, but after yelling two sentences, it affected the swollen and sore spots, and screamed in pain, but it scared the family servants into silence, and hurriedly retreated.

"Master, let's just leave?" "Master, do you want to leave a few people watching?" On the way out, there were constant inquiries from family members.

"Don't pay attention to the county order, you can't turn the sky, you look at Wang Jing." Zhu Da said with a grin, smiled and pointed to Wang Jing, unlike the family members who were worried and wondering, Wang Jing was immediately elated when he heard the news, and walked in the team with great strides.

As a lifter, he already has the qualifications to be an official, although except for special exceptions, the usual upper limit is only the county, but with such qualifications, he has entered the ruling class and is a member of the official gentry.

The imperial court has all kinds of control over Xiucai, except for tax reduction, there is no other privilege, and it is not allowed to discuss political affairs in vain, and the county order wants to get rid of Xiucai's fame, but the people are completely different, they have a larger amount of tax reduction and servitude, and they have the right to participate in political affairs, and they will be regarded as the representatives of the gentry of the county.

When Qin Chuan told Zhu Da about this, Zhu Da couldn't figure out why he had such power and status, in his opinion, the status of the person was just a fame, of course, it brought the benefits of exemption from taxation and servitude, but respect and influence are not what he said, if he wants others to admit it, the county officials and local tyrants will not recognize it, what can you do if you raise people, if everyone ignores it, how can you talk about power.

If it is a person from a large family, it will naturally have the effect of taking advantage of the situation, but such power is related to your original strength, and the fame is just icing on the cake.

"Since ancient times, people have been eunuchs, and everyone feels precious." "The people will think like this, but what is the use of the people thinking, what if the gentry and the powerful don't think so?" Qin Chuan and Zhu Da often have this kind of question-and-answer like raising the bar, and by this time, Zhu Da still felt that Juren was a paper tiger.

"Our Ming Dynasty is the most important fellow villagers, the same subject, the most important teachers and students, after the township examination, worship the teacher, collude with each other, Jinshi is also out of these people, today's friendship, in the future officialdom or relevant photos, or help, the party members are like this, if there is a pleading, I will not help today, tomorrow if there is a pleading who will help me, and the teacher protégé, the main examination of the township examination in all provinces is hand-picked by the Son of Heaven, he does this main examination, is to see the lifting in this scientific examination as a protégé, this teacher and student should become a party in the officialdom, if they do not help each other, who would like to form a party, Who will follow"

This reason was very convincing to Zhu Da, at that time, Qin Chuan was sweating on his forehead, he didn't quite understand why Zhu Da asked so carefully, it was obviously common sense that it was windy and rainy, but he wanted to talk about it, and the more Qin Xiucai said it, the more profound it became.

"It is said that it is a poor scholar, but reading is not to produce, to be able to raise people from Xiucai all the way to the examination, most of them are rich and noble, most of them are gentry of this province, relatives and friends in the family have a meritorious reputation, not to mention the division, this is a grade of noble officials, after the scholar is raised in the examination, he is a member of the gentry of the province, who is against him, is the enemy of the gentry of the province, and say one thing, lift people to write a letter to the same year and the seat of the teacher crying and pleading, some people are too lazy to care, but if someone asks what to do, governor, patrol, government, Taoists, prefects, they don't care or not, even if these people say a word, except for places like Liangjing and Suzhou, who can resist?"

Speaking of which, Zhu Da thoroughly understands this system, Juren is already a member of the Ming gentry, he can use the power of this system, this system is his backing and backing, the identity of Juren does naturally have power and strength, after becoming Juren, no matter what he was before, he will immediately be a gentry, and he will be strong immediately.

As long as people do not go to other places to be officials, they have the care of teachers and fellow departments in the official face, and in the local area, they are powerful gentry, and they have the intertwined relationship between the local aborigines.

"It's hard to see you so happy." was walking forward, Zhou Qingyun said a word beside him.

Only then did Zhu Da realize that he was full of joy and anger, he was usually very tense, but at this time he was indeed happy from the inside out, and replied with a smile: "Of course you have to be happy, you don't have to be so nervous in the future, and you can sleep at night." ”

The county seat is not big, and the streets are very empty, Zhu Da and his party saw the team in front of them not long after they came out, such a team is usually rare, more than ten tall horses are walking in a column on the street, and the horse team is flanked by all kinds of people, etc., these people are following the horse team, they are all trying to move forward, and want to get closer to the one in the first place.

Looking at it this way, I can already see the dress of those people, most of them are long shirts and robes, this is the rich and noble people in Huairen County, and even a few white-haired old men, all of whom are moving forward regardless of their hard work.

"Why is the gong and drum team here?" Someone in the family team muttered, and looked along, but saw a man with a gong and drum coming from another road.

Zhu Da saw clearly the first person in the horse team, that was Qin Chuan, the father-in-law who had been separated for several months, Qin Xiucai back then, and now Qin Juren, he didn't care about the change of fame, Zhu Da just felt kind, the Mongolian horse team entered the Kou, the thieves looted and burned, his parents, the two masters and most of the villagers died in the catastrophe, only himself and Zhou Qingyun and Qin Qin depended on each other, and now there is another relative and elder who has survived, Zhu Da's heart is surging, his steps are getting more and more urgent, from slow to fast, from fast to trot, running faster and faster.

He ran here, Zhou Qingyun also ran, and the family members behind him also ran, they were all fully armed, running like this was like a charge, the street was not long, and the joy here suddenly looked at a group of people rushing over murderously on the opposite side, and the whole street was quiet.

"What people!" "Master Qin, don't move!" A few loud shouts could be heard, and the few knights behind Qin Chuan didn't care about those who approached on the side of the road, and the horses rushed forward, and when they ran, they had already drawn their swords out of their sheaths, and there were still people on the horses with bows and arrows.

Almost a knee-jerk reaction, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun stopped, and behind him Ji Xiaodong also shouted "Raise the spear", the family members were skilled in this action, and immediately put the short spear on the spear thrower, raised it and prepared to throw, these cavalry rushed and did not retreat, and the posture of the counterattack was not bad, those knights all stopped their mounts, and some people turned around and shouted: "Something is wrong, prepare to go!" ”

However, the people of Huairen County on both sides of the horse team who joined in the excitement and flattery settled down after a moment of panic, but this sudden saber rattling calmed many people, so that they did not dare to move, Zhu Da's family members have killed people, and the horse team is also the elite who have seen blood, and suddenly the murderous spirit is released, which makes the jubilant Huairen County people and others frightened inexplicably.

"Father-in-law! Father-in-law! Zhu Da couldn't help but shout twice.

When people came over, Qin Chuan on horseback was talking to the people around him, and when something happened, his vision had been blocked, Qin Xiu was the person who had seen the killing scene, of course he would not lose his temper, but he wondered in his heart, and before he could ask, he heard Zhu Da's shout, his body was shocked, and his originally listless expression also changed.

"It's Xiaoda? You're alive, you're still alive? ”

This shout made the people of Huairen County on both sides react, and everyone looked at each other again, but this time it was quite embarrassing, because the people living in the county town were not so impressed by the disaster of the Mongolian invasion of bandits, and it was difficult for them to put themselves in their shoes to understand life and death.

It was only at this time that they realized that Qin Chuan, who had left Huairen County before the disaster, knew the news of the catastrophe before and after the Taiyuan urban and rural test, and they should have been a little lucky in their hearts, but they sensibly felt that their family was ruined, otherwise they would not have returned to Huairen County so late.

And all kinds of people in Huairen County all felt that it was a matter of course for Zhu Da to live, and subconsciously felt that Qin Chuan should also know, there was no need to say more, this was pure darkness under the lamp, and a few shrewd people complained to themselves in their hearts, what a good opportunity to tie up, and thought that this man was tired without any spirit, but he didn't expect it to be strong to support grief and socialize with everyone.

"Father-in-law, it's me, Qin Qin and Qingyun are alive, we are all alive!" Zhu Da shouted, he was mentally prepared not to see each other again, but he didn't expect things to develop in a good direction, Qin Chuan not only came back, but also came back in the exam.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Hearing Qin Chuan's shouting, he only saw him running over from the crowd.

Zhu Da didn't speak yet, but was hugged by Qin Chuan, Zhu Da subconsciously wanted to dodge, but seeing the other party's tears, he still didn't move.

"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!" Qin Chuan's voice suddenly became hoarse.
