After Wu Xuezheng finished speaking, he hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "What does His Royal Highness the County Lord think?" ”

The little county lord said angrily: "Then don't you pull it down?" ”

Huang Qianhu hurriedly waved his hand and dragged Chen Ying, who was already paralyzed, out of the dragon gate.

The little county lord watched Chen Ying disappear into the dragon gate, and then said with his head held high: "Master Wu, you have done a good job, I will naturally report to the imperial grandfather." This is the end of today's matter, and the lord of this county should also go back. ”

When Huang Qianhu heard this, he came down, and said secretly in his heart: "Auntie, you are leaving." If you cause something to happen again, it's time for this little head to move. Hurriedly bowed his waist and said, "Escort His Royal Highness the County Lord." ”

The little county lord pointed at Zhang Mu and said, "Get up and send this county lord out." ”

Zhang Mu hurriedly got up, put on his clothes, and then followed behind the little county lord, and walked towards the dragon gate.

Wu Xuezheng knelt for most of the day, his legs were numb, and he hurriedly kowtowed: "Weichen sends His Royal Highness the county lord." ”

waited until the little county lord disappeared without a trace, then he breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly asked the prefect of Hangzhou to help him up, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said with a bitter smile: "The old man has been an official for more than 20 years, what do you say this is called?" ”

The rest of the invigilators also breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that today's incident did not make a big fuss, otherwise it would really not end well.

Zhang Mu escorted the little county lord to the dragon gate, bowed his waist and said, "The grass people send His Royal Highness the county lord." ”

The little county lord coughed and said, "Huang Qianhu, you go out to prepare the handlebar first." I still have something to explain to Zhang Mu. ”

Huang Qianhu hurriedly left, and the little county lord said: "This time for you, I will definitely be scolded by my sister after I go back, and maybe I will be punished by my grandfather." Say, "How shall you repay me?" ”

When Zhang Mu heard this, he almost cried, and said secretly in his heart: "If it weren't for you today, there wouldn't be so many moths making trouble." Am I still good or bad that I'm not human? But he said, "Well, isn't it?" If this matter reaches His Majesty's ears, I am afraid that the little one will not be able to escape a meal. ”

"Why did Grandpa Huang beat you?" The little county lord's eyes rolled, and he looked up curiously and asked.

"I am the Jinyi Wei Secret Stake, and I am secretly doing things for Your Majesty. If there is a lot of uproar, Your Majesty must say that I am not doing well. Besides, if you come to the examination booth, you will violate the rules in itself, Your Majesty feels sorry for you, and will not punish you. Zhang Mu smiled bitterly.

The little county lord glanced at Zhang Mu, and felt like a hero cherishing a hero, and pouted: "Today, I cheapened that Chen Ying, and I beat him with a hundred military sticks." ”

"Is this cheaper for him? He is a scholar, and after being beaten with a hundred military sticks, he has half a life left if he does not die. And letting him parade through the streets is tantamount to depriving him of the qualification to participate in the imperial examination in the future, although this Chen Ying also deserves it, but this is not clear. Zhang Mu said.

"Is that heavy?" The little county lord asked puzzled.

"Why doesn't it count? He is a scholar, he can't pick his shoulders, his hands can't lift, and he can't participate in the industry, which can be regarded as ruining his life. ”

"Really?" The little county lord said in surprise.

Zhang Mu said: "Of course, you have been deeply favored by the emperor since you were a child, and you know the difficulties of ordinary people. Especially for readers, ten years of cold windows, the picture is to be able to be on the gold list in the future. It seems to you that it is a small thing, and it seems to him that it is like killing him. So, you see that your imperial grandfather is so careful in handling state affairs. If there is a millimeter difference at the top, it may be a thousand miles wrong at the bottom. ”

Only then did the little county lord suddenly realize: "I see, no wonder the imperial grandfather always can't sleep at night." ”

"If you want me to say, after you go back, take the initiative to admit your mistake to Grandpa Huang first, so as to strive for a good attitude, don't mess around like this in the future." Zhang Mu said.

"Well, there's some truth to what you say. Then I'll give it a try as you say. The little county lord said thoughtfully.

Zhang Mu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had thought about it this time, and he should have stopped for two days, but the little county lord immediately said: "I heard that the exam will be completed tomorrow." The day after tomorrow, you accompany me to the Qiantang River to see the tide. It can be regarded as compensation for the loss of the lord of the county. If you don't come, you know the consequences. ”

Zhang Mu blinked his eyes, daring to say that he had said that it was in vain for half a day, so he smiled bitterly: "Humble obedience." ”

"Well, you go back and take the exam. The lord of this county has gone back, so there is no need to send it. After saying that, the little county lord left in a hurry.

Zhang Mu looked at her back, was silent, and said secretly in his heart: "This girl may be bathed in heaven's grace, and she has not suffered anything in the palace, and she doesn't know the truth that the world is sinister." Today's incident is like this, it will definitely reach Lao Zhu's ears, hey. Chen Ying, Chen Ying, if you don't die, you won't die, if you want to blame, you will be blamed for your bad luck. ”

Back in the examination room, order had been restored in the examination booth, and Zhang Mu began to continue to do the questions.

The first day was two articles, and Zhang Mu had already finished writing them at sunset.

However, there was still one more on the next day, so I couldn't leave and had to spend the night in the examination booth.

The examination booth is really small, and there are many mosquitoes at night, but after tossing and turning, I wrote two articles in a row, and I was depressed.

Then he waited for the candles to be sent down, looked at the stars in the sky, passed the time, and sorted out his troubled thoughts.

As soon as the Japanese in the eastern coastal areas of Zhejiang had a clue, the bandits here made trouble again.

Zhang Mu pondered, when the imperial examination is over, it is a serious matter to return to Wenzhou immediately, his identity cannot be hidden for too long, especially such a trouble, the children in eastern Zhejiang know him, in case the Wen family finds out that the horse's feet, it will fall short.

It's good to say that the more headache is the bandit sect, a White Lotus Sect is enough to give people a headache, and now there is an extra Ming Sect for no reason.

These people and dragons see the head and the tail, and they really have to rack their brains to exterminate them.

However, after the incident in Nanping Mountain that day, Zhang Mu now urgently feels that it is indeed too dangerous to know martial arts.

However, martial arts is not something that can be practiced overnight, and although it is not too late to practice from now on, it is still far from quenching the thirst of the near.

Zhang Mu thought about it and pondered whether to invent something for self-defense.

Thinking of this, Zhang Mu drew on the straw paper, smeared it, and didn't nod with satisfaction until late at night.

One is a grenade and the other is a gas bomb.

Originally, I wanted to make a gun, but cannon steel forging was a huge project, and the current iron-smelting technology needed to be improved, which could not be completed overnight.

Come to think of it, the grenade is economical, the process is not too complicated, anyway, yellow powder can be made, the core technology is there, and the rest is much easier to solve.

As for the poison gas bombs, Zhang Mu showed a sneer on his face, and he will carry a few with him in the future, even if your martial arts are high, you don't want to get close!

I have also been confused, hesitant, sad, and painful.

Even in order to update the task, he didn't even dare to think about it when he was drunk.

Fifteen hundred days and nights, each bitter and indescribable.

Although at my age, when it comes to dreams, it feels a bit nonsense.

However, it is my dream to write 20 books.

The older I get, the more I feel how difficult it is to do something.

I hope I can persevere, and I hope you can accompany me through this journey. I hope that one day when I get old, looking back, my life will not be a blank slate!

Red eyes! Come on! Hard work pays off!
