Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
To say that Yue Yang is also quite aggrieved, although he has a good reputation, but his identity on the surface is very low, and the most capable identity is just a showman, as for the position of the chief soldier of the regimental training, don't mention it, he can't get on the stage at all, so Yue Yang is not in a very good mood every time he meets Zheng Kui, because his identity as a showman can only be exempted from kneeling when he sees officials below the county order, and he still has to follow the rules when he sees Zheng Kui, the four-grade prefect.
It's just that Zheng Kui's next actions made Yue Yang feel better, and before Yue Yang knelt down, Zheng Kui had already stood up from his seat and helped him up first, and said to him with a smile: "Yue Xian's nephew is satisfied that he can come in time, why bother with this big gift, come and come...... We will introduce you to two distinguished guests! ”
After speaking, Zheng Kui took Yue Yang's hand and said to the guest in the middle: "This official will introduce you to you, this is Mr. Xu from Taiyuan Mansion, this is Mr. Xu's personal follower, Mr. Tang, the two of them are the great names of Jiu Muxian's nephew who came to meet you, you should get close to you later." ”
Yue Yang was stunned when Zheng Kui introduced him, because he felt that Zheng Kui was holding his hand and trembled slightly, and his attitude was obviously very solemn and respectful when he talked about this distinguished guest. This now made Yue Yang a little surprised. Because this means that Zheng Kui is very nervous at the moment, and there is only one reason why Zheng Kui can be so out of shape, that is, the identity of the old man in front of him should not be simple, at least far higher than Zheng Kui.
This made Yue Yang curious, Zheng Kui is a dignified four-grade prefect, and the person who can make Zheng Kui feel nervous shows that his status must be a lot higher than Zheng Kui.
After seeing this, Yue Yang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the old man, and said respectfully: "Yue Yang, the younger generation, has seen the old man, and I wish the old man a long and healthy life!" ”
"Huh...... Excuse me! The old man said with a smile, "The old man came to Yingzhou this time, firstly, he hadn't seen Shaoyu (Zheng Kui's cousin) for a long time, and came to see him." The second is that the old man heard that a young man Yingjie led a 500 regiment to practice breaking more than 10,000 thieves in Yingzhou Mansion a few months ago, and he was very curious. ”
Hearing that as soon as the old man surnamed Xu spoke, Yue Yang was even more sure of his guess, because although this person was smiling when he spoke, as soon as he opened his mouth, an elegant and strong official authority rushed to his face.
Thinking of this, Yue Yang's heart was even more confident, and he said respectfully: "It is an honor for the younger generations to be loved by the elders!" I wonder what advice the elders have? ”
"I don't dare to give advice, the old man heard that although Yue Gongzi was born in Xiucai, he resolutely abandoned his pen and ran a group training from Rong, and led his troops to help Yingzhou's big thieves when he was in the Liukou tea poison township, which is quite the style of Dingyuan Hou!"
Listening to the old man's words, Rao is Yueyang was quite thick-skinned but also a little red, this old man compared himself to a class, he really made himself a little ashamed, he said.
"The old gentleman has won the award, as the so-called: those who protect the world, the cheapness of the husband, and the responsibility of the people, and the way is the rise and fall of the world. As a member of the Yingzhou government, how dare he not contribute to the rampant bandits? ”
"Well, well said!" As soon as Yue Yang's words came out, the eyes of the old man surnamed Xu lit up, and he patted his thigh, and his eyes showed a look of joy and praise: "It's a good world, and the rise and fall of the husband is responsible!" Well said! Isn't this exactly what my generation of scholars are looking for? Xueying, don't you say! ”
The middle-aged man sitting on the right side of the old man surnamed Xu also twisted his beard and praised: "Well, what Dong Weng said is very true, as the so-called words are born from the heart, and Yue Gongzi can say such aphorisms, which also shows that Yue Gongzi has great ambitions and is not ordinary people!" ”
Listening to the two of them praising themselves repeatedly, Yue Yang's face was as red as a monkey's butt at the moment, although Gu Yanwu's boss hadn't said this famous sentence yet, but he was already a twenty-year-old adult now, and it would be too unreasonable for him to be shameless and triumphant.
He quickly changed the topic: "The old gentleman has won the award, and the old gentleman listens to his speech and behavior in his later life, so he must be not just an ordinary reader, right?" ”
"Hahaha...... The father-in-law is worthy of being as wise as a torch, and the old man knows that he can't hide it from you. The old man heard that Yue Yang had concealed his identity, but he was not angry. admitted very frankly: "In this case, the old man will not hide it from you, the old man's surname is Xu Ming Dingchen, and now he has been added as the governor of Shanxi, and this is the old man's master Tang Xueying!" ”
As soon as Xu Dingchen's words fell, Rao is Yueyang had already prepared in his heart, and he couldn't help but be taken aback. The governor of a province is not a small official, this is equivalent to the governor and secretary of the provincial party committee. He hurriedly knelt down on one knee towards Xu Dingchen and saluted: "The junior Yue Yang has seen Lord Xu, and if the student is offended, I hope that the adult will forgive him!" ”
"Hahaha...... Get up, just at your sentence "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband", if the old man is to blame, wouldn't it make the world's scholars laugh shamefully? At this moment, Xu Dingchen seemed very approachable, waved his hand to let Yue Yang stand up, and let him take a seat.
Since Xu Dingchen has revealed his identity, Yue Yang naturally has to be a little more careful, and the atmosphere in the study is a little more cautious and solemn than just now.
Seeing such a situation, Xu Dingchen smiled at Yue Yang and said: "Gongzi Yue doesn't have to be like this, the old man is not wearing an official robe today, you don't have to be so restrained, just be as casual as just now." ”
When Yue Yang heard this, he smiled bitterly: "Your official is the biggest, so it's naturally okay to say that, but we can't do this." ”
Seeing Xu Dingchen reveal his identity, Yue Yang not only went around in circles with him, but asked directly: "Lord Xu, I don't know what you did when you suddenly summoned the late life to come over, even if you commanded, as long as the late life can serve, he will definitely not refuse." ”
"Oh, it seems that Gongzi Yue is also a cheerful person!" Xu Dingchen and Master Tang looked at each other and laughed.
He stroked the short beard under his chin and muttered for a while, and then suddenly asked, "Gongzi Yue, I don't know what you call it?" ”
Yue Yang hurriedly replied: "Reply to Lord Xu's words, the late life is Zhenghong!" ”
Xu Dingchen nodded: "Well, so...... The old man will call you Zhenghong. ”
"That's the honor of being a late student!"
"If the old man is not mistaken, Zhenghong, you are twenty-two this year, and you have achieved fame for showing off your talents at such an age, which shows that you have worked weekdays. Are you going to take the township exam next year? ”
"This ......" Yue Yang shook his head and sighed; The students are ashamed, but in recent years, they have wasted a lot of their studies, and I am afraid that they will not be able to participate in the township examination. ”
"That's right...... But it's a pity! Xu Dingchen's hand brushing his beard stopped, and after a while he said;" Masahiro, have you decided to give up the imperial examination? ”
Yue Yang smiled bitterly and arched his hand: "My lord, forgive me, now that the rogue is raging, and the people are struggling to make a living, how can the late students be in the mood to participate in the imperial examination?" I'm afraid I'll live up to the boss's high hopes. ”
Although Yue Yang said this, he muttered in his heart: "Imperial examination? Dude's brain was caught in the door before he participated. "My family knows about my own family affairs, where can Yueyang, who grew up under the red flag, write any Bagu Wen, if I participate in the imperial examination, I am afraid that I don't even know how to die.
"Alas......"
Xu Dingchen sighed lightly, glanced at Master Tang on the side, and saw Master Tang nodding slightly, but when he turned his head, a smile appeared on his face, and he said in a kind voice: "Everyone has their own ambitions, since Zhenghong has no intention of taking the imperial examination, the old man will not be reluctant, but if he sees a young talent like you wasted, he can't bear it." In this way, the last time the rogue attacked, Huang Dafu, a thousand households in Yingzhou, was afraid of the enemy like a tiger as a thousand households, and let the rogue rampant, and he had already dismissed the imperial court. And you who have relieved the siege of Yingzhou City but you can't get the reward you deserve because you don't have a corresponding name, so let's do it, the old man gives you two choices, one is that you are enrolled in the army, and the old man guarantees you as a thousand households in Yingzhou to the imperial court, and the second is that the Yingzhou government still lacks a integrity officer, and the old man can appoint you as a integrity officer in the name of the governor's yamen after he goes back, you choose one yourself! ”
