Ten days later, the two family members who were guarding Qiao Zhen's tomb on the west mountain ran back, and they stumbled to explain the situation of the cemetery to Qiao Weiren, and Qiao Weiren was also stunned. There are strange things every year, not as many as this year, why did these people who rushed to take the exam go to Xishan to touch the golden silk willows?

Qiao Weiren had doubts in his heart, and instructed his family to prepare a sedan chair, and two hours later, he finally came to the grave of his father Qiao Zhen along the winding mountain road. From afar, I smelled a foul smell.

Qiao Weiren parked the sedan chair in front of his father Qiao Zhen's tomb, and there were seven or eight people standing in front of the blue brick grave who rushed to touch the willows, and the more than 20 golden silk willows planted had been shaken by them, making them crooked, and the ground was even more of a mess. Qiao Weiren hurriedly asked his family to find a few lifters and ask, and the lifters all said in unison: "As long as you touch the golden silk willow, the examination room will be full of pen power, endless writing, and high school in one fell swoop." But when asked them about the source of the news, these people said they didn't know, and they almost didn't make Qiao Weiren's nose crooked!

You must know that it takes at least two hours to walk up the mountain, and many people come to Qiao Zhen's grave in a hurry, so they can find a place to start conveniently, and make it like a thatched house, and the smell is unpleasant.

Qiao Weiren returned to the capital and secretly sent someone to inquire, only to know that the news of Fuliu High School was actually released by Kuai Zhengpeng, and Qiao Weiren was so angry that he gasped, but Fuliu High School really has such a thing in Shanxi folk. Obviously, Kuai Zhengpeng was taking revenge on Qiao Zhen, but Qiao Weiren couldn't convict him.

Qiao Weiren slammed the tea bowl in his hand and fell to the ground. He shouted, "Hurry up and cut down all the golden willow trees in front of my father's grave!" ”

More than a dozen family members took axes in their hands and cut down all the golden willows on the mountain. They were all carried back to the house. Looking at the golden silk willow that was carried back, Qiao Weiren laughed, Ren Kuai Zhengpeng has a thousand clever plans, without the golden silk willow, see how he can do it.

……

Just when the lifters were annoyed by the cutting of the golden silk willow, Cheng Zishan, the examiner of the Ministry of Officials who presided over the scientific examination, was also making his own little calculations. Don't look at this outsider, the official is not big. But the power is not small, for the students in the world who want to jump into the dragon gate, they are in charge of the power of life and death.

this day. Zong Chuke sent someone to invite Cheng Zishan, but Cheng Zishan did not dare to slack off. After entering the Zongfu, he was invited to the inner courtyard, but he waited for a whole day and didn't see Zong Chuke. Cheng Zishan thought that Zong Chuke didn't have time to see him. I didn't dare to take the initiative to leave. I had to wait hard.

At this time, someone came up to serve tea, put down the teacup and didn't leave, just looked at Cheng Zishan and smiled.

Cheng Zishan was strange, so he asked why the next person was laughing.

The servant pointed to a piece of paper on the bookcase and said, "Master Cheng, how do you see this article being written?" My elder loved this article. ”

After saying that, he retreated.

Cheng Zishan was puzzled, stepped forward, and looked carefully. The title of this article is "Xingyue Fu". At the end of the text, the name of "Zongxuan" is written.

Cheng Zishan knew that this Qin Xuan was the grandson of Zong Chuke. I am preparing to participate in the scientific expedition.

Cheng Zishan was so smart that he immediately understood what Zong Chuke meant, and wanted him to make the proposition of this scientific examination "to make a fortune with the theme of stars and moons". Cheng Zishan read this article over and over again, thinking that when Zong Chuke summoned him, he could praise Qin Xuan in front of Zong Chuke and please Zong Chuke. But he waited until it was dark, and Zong Chuke didn't summon him, so Cheng Zishan had to leave.

……

On this day, when Li Tao went to the door of Tianhe Inn, Zhang Jiuling, Wen Jun and others were ready to go out together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, where are you going?" Li Tao asked curiously.

"West Mountain!"

"Hasn't the golden silk willow in the West Mountain been cut down?" Li Tao apparently heard the news as well.

Chang Jingzhong whispered: "The willow roots of the golden silk willow are soaked in water and drunk as tea, which has a more miraculous effect on the actions of the Jinbang High School." ”

Li Tao was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "This is what that Tanhualang said again, right?" ”

Chang Jingzhong nodded.

……

Kuai Zhengpeng's words made Qiao Weiren, the secretary of the ministry, suffer a lot. The two family members guarding the tomb ran back covered in blood, which startled Qiao Weiren. When I asked, I realized that it was the golden willow tree that was to blame.

In the past few days, it has been rumored in the capital that the willow root of the golden silk willow is soaked in water and drunk as tea, which has a more miraculous effect on the lifting of the Jinbang High School. Qiao Weiren ordered people to cut the golden willow, many people who did not touch the golden willow actually took a shovel to dig the willow root, the two grave keepers desperately stopped, but a few days later, the cemetery was still dug into a mess, did not get the willow root of the move was unwilling, actually bought the willow root of the golden silk willow at a high price, there are really little gangsters who are not afraid of things, take advantage of the night to go up the mountain, dig out the willow root next to the coffin, and then sell it to the person who rushed to take the exam at a high price.

The two grave keepers tried to stop them, but they were stoned by the masked thugs. The idea of digging willow roots and soaking in water to drink must have also come up with Kuai Zhengpeng, and Qiao Weiren hurriedly reported the case of damage to his father's cemetery to the Criminal Department.

Zhang Wei, the waiter of the Criminal Department, listened to it and ordered Jing Zhaoyin to send a quick arrest to strictly investigate the gangsters who secretly dug willow roots.

Waiting for Qiao Weiren to say that Kuai Zhengpeng was spreading rumors, Zhang Wei said with a sad face: "Lord Qiao, according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, cutting down the trees in front of the grave and secretly digging up the underworld property in the tomb is considered tomb robbery, but the golden silk willow is cut by yourself, and people digging useless willow roots are not considered tomb robbery!" ”

Qiao Weiren heard Zhang Weiyi say and said embarrassedly: "What should I do?" ”

Zhang Wei thought for a while and said: "Xia Guan has long heard of the grievances between you and Kuai Zhengpeng, as the so-called grievances should be resolved rather than settled, wouldn't it be clean to let him go far away as an official, and never see him?" ”

Qiao Weiren went out of the criminal department, hurried back to the yamen to look through the official register, and really found a vacancy in the remote Jiangxi, and waited for him to notify Kuai Zhengpeng of the news of the release, Kuai Zhengpeng in the inn was holding a cedar board in his hand, looking left and right in a gesture.

As soon as the messenger of the annunciation finished speaking, Kuai Zhengpeng sneered and said, "Go to that place where rabbits don't to be the magistrate?" Kuai said that he would not go anything! ”

The two officers touched their noses, and returned to the official department with their heads "drooping", Qiao Weiren heard the report, slapped the table loudly, and shouted: "Don't go? Okay, I'll give this magistrate to someone else and tell him to stay in the capital for another year! ”

Qiao Weiren was also stunned, he really didn't understand what Kuai Zhengpeng was doing with that fir board.

It turned out that the palace was decorating the three major halls in the past few days, and the craftsmen used paint to paint all the windows and doors of the hall, but in a blink of an eye, Zhongzong, who was in the hall with a pungent smell of paint, was itchy all over his body, and had a small red bump on his body, which was determined to be a paint sore after the diagnosis and treatment of the imperial doctors. The doctors had no choice but to advertise and recruit talents. (To be continued......)
