As a system that can make great changes in one person or even a family, it has been very perfect after continuing to the Ming Dynasty. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Even if you are admitted to an extremely ordinary talent in the eyes of later generations, you have to go through the three levels of the county examination, the government examination and the hospital examination. And even if you are selected for the show, if you want to further participate in the township examination, you must be a person with outstanding results in the official school, that is, a student and some of the enlarged students.

Xiucai, the identity of this later generation's somewhat disdainful was superior at that time, and was divided into students, enlarged students, and attached students. The students have the best grades, and they can receive rice from the government for daily use, and in today's words, they are top students, and they can get a full scholarship; Zengguang students are slightly inferior, but their weekday grades are okay, and the top few people can also go to the township examination, which is considered a public-funded student; The last attached students mostly obtained the status of Xiucai through other channels, and their grades were at the bottom, so they were self-financed students, so it was naturally impossible to participate in the township examination.

Some people may ask, since they can't go further, why do some people still spend money to get the identity of this attached student? This reflects the superiority of Xiucai's identity, as long as you are Xiucai, you don't have to kneel when you see an official, and you don't need to be guided when you leave your hometown, you can travel the world, and it is not easy for ordinary people to leave the county where they live for ten miles. Even in the Wanli year, the rules that Zhu Yuanzhang had established at the beginning were almost broken, and it was more convenient to have a talent identity.

It is for this purpose that the Yao family got the identity of a student attached to the third son, Shuguang, but his brother Yao Boguang relied on his own ability to be admitted to Xiucai, and now he is also a student and is also eligible to participate in the township examination. As for why they wanted Yang Chen to give up his position, and how to let Yao Shuguang go to the township for the test, Yang Chen couldn't figure it out.

Yang Zhen didn't dwell on this matter, and as soon as he heard that the person who asked Yang Chen to withdraw from the township examination was actually assigned by the Yao family, he knew that there was something strange in it. It was the Yao family who let those outsiders attack him, and it was also the Yao family who coerced his brother with a lawsuit over his life, and it was impossible for him to believe that the two were not connected.

Seeing that Yang Zhen was stunned, Yang Chen only said that he felt guilty in his heart, and comforted: "The matter has come to this, Erlang, don't blame yourself too much." As long as you can change your past mistakes in the future, this time for my brother's stumbling is nothing, and you will take the exam again in three years. What's more, even if it is a reference for my brother this year, he may not be able to win. ”

Yang Zhen quickly came back to his senses from the doubts just now, and when he heard this, he felt even more warm and sorry in his heart, he had already made up his mind to take this bad breath for his brother and himself. But at this time, what was in front of him was still Mo'er's assassination of himself, and he turned his gaze back to Mo'er, who was kneeling in front of him: "It's because of this that you hold a grudge against me, so you were instructed to drug me?" ”

“…… Be. Childe gave up this imperial examination in order to save you, and you have always only caused trouble for Childe, I really can't bear it......" At this time, Mo'er knew that she couldn't defend herself, so she simply let go of her courage and said something.

In the face of his accusation, Yang Zhen did not feel angry, he nodded and said, "What I did before was indeed inappropriate, and I really deserve some punishment." But what you have done today is beyond what a slave should do, and even if we punish you and hand you over to the government, I am afraid that we will not spare you. ”

Seeing that his brother was so calm at this time, Yang Chen looked at him with some surprise, and forgot to speak for a while. As far as he remembers, Yang Zhen has a short temper, and he has to draw his fist against someone if he doesn't agree with him, and now it is impossible to be so conspired against someone. But now he actually admits his mistakes, which is really unexpected.

Mo'er didn't expect Yang Zhen to react like this, and she didn't know what to say for a while, she just raised her eyes to look at him and see what he said next. Yang Zhen squinted his eyes: "Actually, I don't have any interest in you, but the person behind you who instructed you made me curious." As long as you can tell me to find him, everything before will be written off, and I will let you go. ”

"Huh?" Mo'er was stunned again, but quickly shook her head and said, "But I don't know who he is." This guy I've never seen before......"

Yang Zhen interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "After the first time, did he give you any medicine?" ”

"Yes, when the boy asks me to go out to buy medicine, he will give me a few packets of medicine, and give me a few taels of broken silver to tell me to continue taking medicine."

Now the Yang brothers have confirmed that the injury on Yang Zhen's leg has not improved because he was drugged, which makes their hearts full of anger. Yang Chen snorted even coldly: "You are really conscientious, you have worked hard these days!" ”

Yang Zhen didn't dwell on this matter, after all, it would be useless to say anything before the established facts. What we have to do now is to find out who is behind the scenes: "Then how many days will you go to buy medicine again?" ”

"The day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the medicine at home will run out, and I need to buy some more."

"Okay." Yang Zhen nodded, he already knew what to do.

That night, Yang Chen went out and found Ruan Tong. Although he was very surprised by Yang Chen's personal visit, he still came to Yang's house immediately. Then he received more surprises: "What? Someone actually bought your scholar to poison your medicine? ”

"Yes, I came to Ruan Wu today to deal with this matter." Yang Zhen gave him a slightly calm look and said, "I hope you will secretly follow Mo'er the day after tomorrow to see who contacts him, and then find out the identity of the other party." I guess that's not too hard for you, right? ”

"Of course, I will definitely pull out the eight calves." Ruan Tong patted his chest and promised.

"Remember to keep an eye on it, maybe the person who comes into contact with Mo'er may not be the real messenger, you have to be patient to see if there is anyone behind." Yang Zhen instructed. At this time, he is not at all like the brave and ruthless young man before, but has a bit of the demeanor of the previous life when he deployed the battle.

Although he was a little surprised by Yang Zhen's plan, Ruan Wu still agreed. Then, Yang Zhen took out another packet of medicinal powder and handed it to him: "Your uncle is the chief treasurer of the county's Rejuvenation Hall, you take it to him to see what kind of medicine is so vicious, it can make my leg not get better." ”

Ruan Tong took the medicine bag and agreed again. Somehow, now that he has contact with Yang Zhen, he always has a strange feeling, as if the other party is no longer the brother he used to be. But in the face of his request, Ruan Tong couldn't refuse, but soon, he left this weird feeling behind.

After Ruan Tong left, Yang Chen couldn't help it anymore: "Erlang, recently I feel that you are a little different from the past, and today is even more so, why is this?" ”

Yang Zhen smiled: "Maybe it's because this serious injury made me understand some truth, I can't live in a mess like before, and I should do something serious." However, this time someone bullied us like this, I can't swallow it. ”

"You look like you've guessed something." Knowing Brother Mo Ruo, Yang Chen quickly saw the clue.

"Yes, I think everything should be done by one person. But now, I still need to make sure, just wait for the day after tomorrow, everything should be known. ”

Early in the morning of the third day, Mo'er went out to buy medicine again as usual, and behind him, Ruan Tong was already far away.

Half an hour later, Mo'er turned. He already knew that Yang Zhen had people secretly follow him, so naturally he didn't dare to take the opportunity to escape or tell that person. As a slave of the Yang family, he sold his deed in their hands, and if he dared to run, there was really only one way to die. And Yang Zhen also promised him that as long as he did what he wanted, he would return his freedom after the deed, which made him have to do what he was told.

More than an hour later, almost noon, Ruan Tong returned to Yang's house, and at this time his face was full of anger. As soon as he saw the Yang family brothers, he hurriedly spoke: "After that guy saw Mo'er, he walked outside for a while, and finally came to the back door of Yao Ju's house. I watched from afar, and it was the second steward of the Yao family who saw him and gave him a letter of silver. Unexpectedly, it's the Yao family again! With that, he couldn't help but slam his fist on the table in hatred.

When Yang Chen was also very angry, Yang Zhen didn't seem so angry, just poured a glass of water for Ruan Tong and pushed it in front of him: "It seems that things are consistent with what I think, everything is the Yao family making trouble behind his back!" ”

"Why, you guessed it was them?" Yang Chen and Ruan Wu said in unison.

"Yes, because I already knew from Ruan Wu that I was attacked by the Yao family, and the eldest brother also said that it was the Yao family's people who told him to withdraw from the township test on the grounds of helping to settle the life lawsuit. In this case, they are all aimed at our brothers, and they should have done it in secret. Yang Zhen explained.

In the sudden gaze of the two, Yang Zhen said again: "And as far as I think, all this is an interlocking serial scheme." First, the outsiders attacked me and injured me, and then used the lawsuit to intimidate the eldest brother and force you to withdraw from the township test. ”

"Then why did they poison you?" Ruan Wu couldn't help but ask.

Yang Zhen didn't answer this question, but looked at Yang Chen: "Big brother, are you sure about my beating of the dead, have you seen the corpse of the deceased?" Or did you only hear the words of some public officials? ”

"This ...... I just heard them say that, but many of them came that day, and they all brought iron locks...... By the way, they weren't told to take out the cards that day. ”

Yang Zhen nodded: "Big brother, you are concerned about it, so you were bluffed by them, this is actually just a play arranged by the Yao family, in order to make the rest of the matter logical." After all, it is a life lawsuit, and it is fortunate that he can avoid it, so how can the eldest brother find out? Moreover, they poisoned me again just in case, so that the eldest brother had no time to pursue the matter again, and naturally it was even more difficult for people to detect the fraud. ”
