Chapter 0176 - With Honor
When Fang Rong went to Mianzhou, killed more than 70 members of the Mianzhou tycoon Murong Jing's family in one fell swoop, and broke the "Shenglong Society" and returned, Li Ang also successfully passed the state test in Chengdu and got the Yizhou Township Tribute quota.
This time, Li Ang has seen the imperial examination of the Tang Dynasty, and the process of the examination is completely a formality, and the examiner basically does not look at the examination papers, and the ranking is set as early as before the examination.
Of the three township tribute quotas, Wei Yuan was selected as one of them.
Li Ang's fame has already overshadowed Wei Yuan, and if Wei Yuan is selected and he loses, it will make people doubt Wei Changqing's fairness.
There is another one named Tang Yu, who is the son of an official eunuch, and his father is the history of Runzhou Thorn.
However, Tang Yu was not selected by power, Li Ang had contact with him twice, this person is indeed very talented, and he does not have the arrogance of the children of the official eunuchs, and treats people politely, if it were not for Zhou Liang, who joined the army, mentioned his family status, Li Ang would not know that he was the son of the official eunuchs.
As soon as the state test rankings were announced, Tang Yu found Li Ang and congratulated: "Congratulations to Li Jietou, congratulations to Li Jietou!" ”
Untie your head? It took a while for Li Ang to react, this should be the name of Xie Yuan in the Tang Dynasty, but why does this title sound so awkward?
couldn't control it, Li Ang also hurriedly returned the salute: "Rejoice, rejoice." ”
Seeing the two of them like this, Wei Yuan snorted slightly coldly. He was very dissatisfied with Li Ang, but he didn't know that it was precisely because of his narrow temperament that Wei Changqing was secretly disappointed in him and gave Li Ang the first place in the state test.
After the list was announced, all the selected township tributes and apprentices went to see Wei Changqing together as usual. On the way there, he happened to meet Fang Rong coming back with a murderous soldier and horse, and he was still stained with blood. Immediately hung a hideous head.
Seeing Li Ang walking in front of a group of lifters, Fang Rong glared angrily. As the troops galloped past, the sound of hooves rumbled. If it weren't for Li Ang's quick evasion, I am afraid that he would have been hit by Fang Rong's war horse.
Li Ang flicked his sleeves, but there was no seizure, Tang Yu came up and asked, "Li Jietou, are you okay?" It's so arrogant that these people are running so rampage on the streets! ”
"Thank you Brother Tang for your concern, it's okay here." Li Ang looked at Fang Rong's soldiers and horses in the distance, thinking thoughtfully, and even visited Wei Changqing for the whole process. He was a little absent-minded.
After Wei Changqing heard that he was almost hit, not only did he not blame him, but comforted him a few words.
After meeting Wei Changqing, Tang Yu took the initiative to invite him to the banquet, firstly to surprise him, and secondly, to celebrate together and enhance the relationship, after all, they will enter Beijing together in October, and they will have a good time to take care of them. As a result, he was also rejected by Li Ang.
After Li Ang said goodbye to everyone, he hurried to see Zhou Liang and asked him to help inquire about the news, when Fang Rong led his troops into the city. There were nearly a hundred bloody human heads hanging immediately, which was a lot of excitement for Li Ang.
As the saying goes, carefulness can make a ship of ten thousand years. But don't let your head be hung up by Fang Rong right away.
Until Zhou Liang came with the news that Zhou Liang had gone to Mianzhou to destroy the headquarters of the Shenglong Society. After beheading nearly a hundred levels and returning, Li Ang was a little relieved.
Zhang Qiu and Qiong did not degrade Fang Rong. Although Li Ang was unhappy in his heart, with his strength right now, there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, he is now the "solution" of Yizhou Mansion, which is regarded as an extra talisman.
When Li Ang returned to Shangxi Village, the whole people of Shangxi Village went out, and five or six hundred men, women, and children, beating gongs and drums, greeted them outside the village and warmly welcomed them.
Gao Li was personally draping the prepared red silk on Li Ang's body, and the elders in the village hugged the old man Hua up, and the old man Hua was so excited that his beard trembled and choked, "Okay...... All right! Old man Hua took Li Ang's hand, and he couldn't say a word except for these three words.
Li Ang was in a daze, and hurriedly said: "Elders don't have to be like this, the kid can't afford it!" I can't afford it! ”
Gao Lizheng said loudly: "I can afford it, how can I not bear it?" It is the first time that someone has been able to get a head since the Tang Dynasty was in Shangxi Village, which is a great honor!
From now on, in these ten miles and eight townships, who would dare not look down at my Shangxi Village?! What's more, now that I am reading loudly in Shangxi Village, the children can read books, and one day I will be an example, and it is not impossible to have a few more township tributes in the future, or even the title of the gold list!
In addition, the printing workshop has also been set up, and everyone has hope, which is all thanks to the blessing of the sun! The grace of the sun, every Shangxi villager is in my heart, we are old, it is also our honor to come out to welcome us! ”
"Gao Li is right, it's an honor!"
"Go back to the village quickly, everyone will have a good water and wine, today we will celebrate with the village in Shangxi Village, and celebrate with the village!"
Surrounded by hundreds of villagers, Leon returned to the village. Sixty or seventy tables of banquets were set up on the large flat used to dry paper in the printing workshop, and the workshop was temporarily suspended for one day, and the private school in the village was also closed for a day, and the children and private school teachers came, and the scene was very lively.
Outside, there were six or seven big iron pots under a blazing fire, and the strong aroma of dishes wafted throughout the village.
Li Ang was invited to the chief, and a group of elders insisted that he sit in the first seat, but Li Ang refused, and pushed him several times, and finally Li Ang was put on the table.
After the wine and food were served, Gao Li got up and said loudly: "Everyone be quiet, let's listen to the sun to tell us a few words." ”
"Yes, yes, Li Langjun will say a few words to us."
"Li Langjun, you must come back with a Jinshi exam next year."
"If you want to take the test, you will be the champion!"
For a while, hundreds of villagers said anything, and the audience was full of joy, Li Ang stood up in the warm call of everyone, and the big flat suddenly fell silent, and even those children, with their big sparkling eyes, looked at him intently.
Li Ang was very touched in his heart, these simple and kind villagers gave him roots.
After he made a gesture, he said: "Fellow villagers, all uncles and aunts treat me with deep affection, and I, Li Ang, are grateful!" Since you have asked me to say two words, I will say two words.
As the saying goes, everything is inferior, only reading is high. Since ancient times, all the great families have been able to continue from generation to generation because of reading;
Power is often temporary, but knowledge can be continued. If we want Shangxi Village to prosper, we need to let our children study. As long as we can eat, as long as we have the conditions, we must not let the children give up studying. If one generation can't do it, just look at the second generation, as long as the generation is diligent in studying, there will always be a day when there will be talents in our village. ”
"Good!"
"Li Langjun said it well!"
"Our village now has the conditions, and we must let the children study."
Everyone talked about it, this feeling was not deep before, but now with the example of Li Ang, everyone has a more intuitive and deeper touch on "everything is inferior, only reading is high".
At this moment, Gao Lizheng's grandson Gao Cheng hurriedly ran to the chief and said, "Li Langjun, Ah Weng, Ma Mingfu's car drove to the outside of the village.......
"Huh?" Gao Li was startled, and hurriedly got up and said, "Ming Mansion is here?" Hurry up, hurry up and greet! ”
Li Ang also got up, but he was thinking in his heart about the purpose of this Ma Qingquan's sudden arrival in Shangxi Village.
