The township test in the Ming Dynasty is a great event, the local really attaches great importance to it, once every three years, open the department to select materials, where the person can be an official. Otherwise, in Mr. Wu Jingzi's "Fan Jinzhongju", as soon as Fan Jin heard that he had won the lift, he would have gone crazy all of a sudden.

You must know that there are hundreds of counties in Huguang Province, and more than 100 people will be selected after a township test, and it is good that each county can be divided into one, and some even have none.

Not to mention Xie Yuan, it was the first place in the township test, which county can come out with such a one, and many fellow villagers will follow suit. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, most of the court officials were formed into a party, and most of the main members of a party were fellow villagers. Therefore, local officials in Hongo will be wooed when they encounter such talents, and they will form a party in the future.

As soon as the county magistrate heard that Xie Yuan came out under his rule, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Whose family is it?" ”

"Lord Hui, it's Lord Yue Su Yue of Baiyang Township." After understanding the Yuan, no matter whether the officer has seen this person or not, he must use the eldest lord to show respect. But how did he know that the kid who was lying in the lobby and being beaten now was the master Yue Suyue in his mouth.

"Yue Su ...... of Baiyang Township" The county magistrate groaned, followed by a shock in his heart, and he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard someone report this name just now.

"Wait! Stop it! The county commander hurriedly yelled to stop the officers below from continuing to move. The officer had just lifted the board to Lao Gao, when he heard the voice of the adult, and braked sharply, and almost missed his waist.

At this time, a cold sweat broke out in his head, and he pointed to Yue Su, who was lying on his stomach, and asked, "When you came in, who did you say you were?" What's the name? ”

Yue Su supported the ground with his right palm, stood up with difficulty, gritted his teeth, straightened his chest, and said loudly: "No, student Baiyang Township Yue Su!" ”

"You...... It's ......" The county order listened to Yue Su's name again, almost collapsed on the chair, and it took a long time to come to his senses, wipe the cold sweat on his head, and hurriedly bypassed the public case and ran to Yue Su, now his face was full of smiles, "Duke Xie Yuan, I was offended just now, and I ask for forgiveness...... That one...... Isn't it a sin to say that those who don't know...... This ......"

He was too scared to say anything now.

A showman, your county order will be beaten according to a crime, and your fame will be reformed, but it can still be said in the past. But Xie Yuan is what you are qualified to dismiss, even if you commit a big case and the evidence is conclusive, you have to report it to the governor's yamen before you can get rid of your reputation.

Yue Su sneered and said, "My lord...... The fame of the grass people has been cut off by you, and you can't call the three words Xie Yuangong in front of you. ”

"Xie Yuangong, where are you talking about this, aren't you killing this county. By the way, I'll send the title deed to the house right away. Then he pointed to the errand officer next to him with his hand, and shouted: "What are you doing stupidly, why don't you help Yuan Gong to go into the back house to rest, and find the best Lang Zhong to treat his injuries." ”

Those errand officers usually shouted respectfully to the master, and now they are fighting Xie Yuan in the hall, and they have long panicked, especially those who have just started, and they are even more frightened. Fortunately, there were still not many hands, and a few clever people hurriedly stepped forward to support Yue Su and carried him to the back house to recuperate.

And this county magistrate ran to Guo Rong in a panic, and scolded Guo Rong as soon as they met, "You slandered someone's family for not being good, but slandering the Yue family, and now that someone has a solution, how can this matter end." You hurry up and return the title deed to the family, prepare more gifts, and come to apologize. Don't come to me again if you don't inquire about the details of this kind of thing! ”

Guo Rong is a lifter, as soon as he heard that Yue Suzhong understood Yuan, he was also a little panicked, this kind of person, there will be big people coming to recruit him soon, and he is too late to stammer, and he is even offended. Guo Rong's intestines are now repentant, he is a country bully, if people want to take revenge, it is not a matter of moving their mouths, they dare not stay for a long time at the moment, they immediately go back to the house to prepare a generous gift, visit Yue's house, and apologize.

****************************************************

On the night when Yue Su had just left Wuchang.

In the wing room of a mansion compound, a pig-like howl suddenly came out, "Ah......

"Young master, take it out." A lieutenant general in a military uniform, Lang put an arrow in a tray and presented it to Pei Yingjie.

Pei Yingjie didn't even look at it, he threw it on the table on the side, and after letting Lang Zhong go down, he slapped the table heavily and shouted loudly: "What is it called, why don't you hurt to death." Say! Where did the roll go? ”

The person lying on the bed is the servant Xiao Jiu, he is Pei Yingjie's personal scholar, if it weren't for this, how could this Pei Young Master care about his life and death, and asked someone to take out the arrow.

"Young master, the roll really shot in, it was shot by Huzi, I have been guarding under the tree, he said it was right."

"With his brain, you can believe it, damn it, you can't pick a normal person to on me. Come on, go and call me the tiger! ”

"I can't find anyone else, the Gongyuan is so big, the arrow shot by the five-stone hard bow can be shot into your examination shed, and the one in our house who can pull the bow apart, except for the master is a tiger, you can't let me go to the master." Xiao Jiu said aggrievedly.

"Fuck, I don't know which bastard cheaper the rolls I bought with a lot of money. You didn't tell him, I made a mark on the examination booth and a red ribbon on the window. Pei Yingjie scolded indignantly.

"Can you tell him, I told him several times, and he said it was okay. Who knows, the wrong shot. ”

As he was talking, Huzi walked in, and as soon as this guy entered the door, he shouted happily: "Brother, you are back, you can marry Miss Li this time, you have to thank me, give me a happy wine to drink......"

He didn't know about the arrow shooting in the wrong place.

Huzi is Pei Xuan's adopted son, when Pei Xuan joined the army in Sichuan to quell the rebellion, he had a good brother who died on the battlefield, and entrusted his only son Huzi to him before he died. Huzi was born with great strength, but his brain was a little dull, like a lack of tendons, but Pei Xuan loved him very much and accepted him as a righteous son.

Although Pei Yingjie is a gentleman, he usually doesn't care about this stupid brother, he doesn't even say much, suppresses his anger, and asks: "Huzi, which examination shed did you shoot the arrow into?" ”

"It's the one Xiao Jiu said, with a red ribbon." Huzi said and sat down on the chair next to Pei Yingjie.

"Are you sure there's a red strap on that booth?"

"Sure." Hu Zi replied angrily and nodded vigorously.

"That's weird, so why didn't I see it?" Pei Yingjie also knows that this stupid brother is an honest man, who has one thing to say, two things to say, and never lies.

"You didn't see it, what didn't you see?" Huzi didn't understand what Pei Yingjie meant, so he asked.

"What else can I have, I didn't see the arrow you shot at me!" Pei Yingjie was a little impatient, and waved his hand: "You go out to play." ”

"Oh......" Huzi nodded politely at his brother, and was just about to get up, when he suddenly saw the arrow on the plate, pointed and said, "Huh...... Isn't this our cloud-piercing arrow, who did you shoot, why is it still bloody? ”

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

"You wait!" As soon as Pei Yingjie heard this, he hurriedly called out to Huzi and asked, "What did you just say, this arrow is our family's arrow!" ”

Huzi turned around, nodded and said, "It's not, I play with it every day, how can I not know it." After speaking, he grabbed the arrow and said: "It must be, our cloud-piercing arrow arrows are different from the arrows in my father's barracks, they are long and thick, you look at this, it's really our cloud-piercing arrows." ”

Pei Yingjie snatched it over and shouted, "You go and find me a cloud-piercing arrow to compare!" By the way, take another normal arrow. ”

"Oh." Huzi agreed, ran out in a hurry, and after a while, came back with two feather arrows.

Pei Yingjie also knew that the texture of his own arrows was better than that commonly used in the barracks, and the arrow shaft was thick and long, and the arrow was thick and long, and Zeng Ming was really his own cloud-piercing arrow. Comparing the two arrows, it is really the same.

"Bell!" As soon as Pei Yingjie was sure of this, he was even more angry, and smashed the arrow he was holding in his hand to the ground. He shouted, "That's the bastard!" Not only picked up Lao Tzu's rolls, but also dared to provoke me, what is his name? ”

Xiao Jiu saw that the young master was even more angry, his body couldn't help but tremble, and said timidly: "It seems that I heard that the surname is Yue, what is the specific name, I can't remember it clearly." ”

"It doesn't matter, Lao Tzu can wait for the release of the list, copy my volume, and he will definitely win, and then Lao Tzu will just find the surname Yue!"

After a few days, on the day when the Gongyuan released the list, Pei Yingjie specially sent a servant to look at the list and note how many people with the surname Yue were on it. Coincidentally, there is only one person surnamed Yue in this list, and it is Xie Yuan.

"Yue Su! I remember, it's this kid! "I heard that he was still in the middle of the Yuan, Pei Yingjie was even more angry, obviously the Xie Yuan he got was cheaper than others.

Money is a trivial matter, but this breath is really unbearable, you got my rolls, pick up the cheap, forget it, and still oppose me at the gate of the Gongyuan, it's really unbearable.

Since Pei Yingjie knew that Yue Su understood the yuan, he locked himself in the study, thinking hard, and he must come up with a way, not to affect himself, but also to get rid of Yue Su's Xie Yuan. Finally, on this day, he thought of a way to write an anonymous letter to report!

That night, an arrow was fired into the mansion of Zou Jiaren, the chief examiner of the current department and the political envoy of Huguangbu.
