The five-colored flying tiger fell asleep, and the three were frightened and couldn't sleep; Tianming asked Yu Baixiao, happy words and good luck came; Xu Ren didn't believe in dreams, who knew that the five tigers entered the yamen.
Press Wang Zipeng did not mention learning martial arts in Shaolin Temple, and now he said that Yue Fei and other five brothers listened to the words of the chief and were full of joy. "Big brother, we can go to Xiangzhou this time to show our talents, if our brothers pass the Xiangzhou Metropolitan Academy, then we can go to Bianjing to take the exam." Tang Huai said happily.
"Isn't it? Where can people like Brother Yue go to find them? Our brother will definitely get ahead with Brother Yue. Zhang Xian said.
"Let's go home and tell our parents and make them happy." Wang Guixin said happily.
Niu Gao listened to the words of his brothers and lowered his head sadly.
"Niu Gao, what's wrong with you?" Yue Fei asked curiously.
"You can all go to Xiangzhou to take the exam, but I can't take the exam with you." Niu Gao said dejectedly.
"Why can't you go?" Wang Gui asked.
"You are all from Neihuang County, and you have all participated in the county's martial arts exam and passed, when the county report, your name is written, I am a newcomer to the country, and I didn't take the county exam, how can I go?" Niu Gao said.
"Brother, don't worry! I will go to Neihuang County early tomorrow morning, and the county lord is my father-in-law. I have made your situation known to him, and I want him to do everything in his power to fill in your name. When the time comes, the five of us brothers will be able to take the exam together. Yue Fei comforted.
Niu Gao was overjoyed when he heard this, and all the brothers were also happy.
The next day, Yue Fei rode into the city and came to Neihuang County, where the officials saw Yue Fei coming and hurried in to report to the county lord.
"Hurry up and invite my uncle to come in and talk to each other." Li Xianling said.
When the official heard this, he hurriedly walked out and respectfully invited Yue Fei into the county office.
When he came to the inner office and saw Li County's order, Yue Fei bowed and said: "My son-in-law said that he was going to Xiangzhou to take the college examination, and now he is here to say goodbye; In addition, the son-in-law has one more thing to ask his father-in-law to fulfill. ”
"Virtuous son-in-law, please get up and speak, just say anything, as long as it is not a violation of law and discipline, I will definitely do it." Li Chun said.
"Father-in-law, that's the case, a few days ago, I have another sworn brother, this person's surname is Ge Haoshuang, he has done a good job, he wants to go to the capital with us to take the exam, but he didn't take the exam, there is no name on the booklet, beg the father-in-law to see the face of the son-in-law, fill in his name and send it to the exam." Yue Fei said.
Li Chun listened to it and said happily: "Now that the imperial court is employing people, since he is your brother-in-law, what is his name, I will add him." ”
"His name is Niu Gao, and there is only one old mother in the family, and now the mother and son live in Qilin Village." Yue Fei said.
Li Chun listened to it, filled out the booklet, and handed it to Yue Fei.
Yue Fei was very grateful, and his heart was happy.
"Virtuous son-in-law, after arriving in Xiangzhou, you must go to meet Lord Xu Renxu, the lord of Tangyin County, he is a good official, upright, loves talents, cherishes talents, loves the people, is honest and honest, has a lot of prestige in Tangyin, and the people love him. Even the adults of the capital have a lot of respect for him. Xu Ren is my friend of the same year, and when I take a letter with you, and you show him the letter, he will naturally understand that the make-up examination will be exempted. Li Chun said, came to the study to repair the book, and handed it to Yue Fei.
Yue Fei put away the letter and thanked him, returned home, and told everyone, everyone was overjoyed.
"Tomorrow is a zodiac auspicious day, you can leave early in the morning, tonight you each prepare your luggage, everyone rest early." Wang Yuanwai said.
Everyone nodded frequently and dispersed.
The next morning, the five brothers met in the Wangyuan Wai Village, bid farewell to their parents, left the village, and rode all the way to Xiangzhou.
The itinerary on the road is not endless, the brothers enjoy the flowers and grass, talk and laugh, and have fun.
When they came to Xiangzhou, the brothers walked in from the south gate and walked to the street, Yue Fei raised his eyes and looked around, only to see that there were many shops on both sides of the street, and there were many signboards.
Suddenly, an eye-catching signboard came into view: "Jiang Zhenzi Anyu Inn".
"Brothers, it's getting late, let's rest here tonight! Let's go in and eat something to fill our stomachs before making plans. Yue Fei pointed to the signboard of "Jiang Zhenzi Anyu Inn" and said.
The crowd agreed.
The five brothers got off the horse and led the horse over, and the boss Jiang Zhenzi inside hurriedly came out to greet him with a smile, greeted him politely, and instructed the shopkeeper to lead the guest's horse to the backyard stable to load. Yue Fei saw that the boss had a kind face, and spoke politely and enthusiastically, so he walked into the inn with his brothers.
The shop has a few bright windows and a unique decoration, and the ink landscape painting and the four big characters of 'feel at home' hang high on the wall of the main hall.
Yue Fei and the others came to the elegant seat and sat down, and the shopkeeper came to pour tea and greet the guest officials.
"Shopkeeper, do you know this person Xu Ren, the county lord of Tangyin? How is he? Yue Fei asked seemingly casually.
"Of course I do. This county lord has been in Tangyin County on the ground of Xiangzhou for nine years. The lord of Xu County is an upright official, and it can really be described as 'two sleeves and a clean breeze, and he loves the people like a son.' He was promoted by the imperial court several times, but he was bitterly retained by the common people.
When Yue Fei heard this, he felt that it was basically the same as what his father-in-law said, and he had a score in his heart.
"Brothers, we have trekked through mountains and rivers, gone through hardships, and finally arrived in Xiangzhou, tonight everyone has a good meal, a good night's sleep, enough spirits, and tomorrow morning with me to see the county lord of Xu." Yue Fei said.
Among their brothers, Yue Fei's words were like a holy decree, and everyone obeyed their orders.
Besides, Xu Ren, the county lord of Tangyin, suddenly had a strange dream at the third watch of this day, in which five colorless flying tigers flew up to the lobby and rushed straight to him. After Xu Ren woke up, he was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.
After dawn, Xu Ren found a scribe known as 'Mr. Baixiao' and told him in detail about the things in his dreams at night.
"Sir, do you think this dream of mine is a curse or a blessing? The main culprit? Xu Ren asked.
"Congratulations, congratulations, this is a good omen. In the past, it was said that King Wen of Zhou dreamed of flying bears in the account at night, and he got his teeth in Weishui. Mr. Bai Xiao said.
Xu Ren was furious when he heard this, and scolded: "You gentleman is realizing his dream there, and he is obviously teasing his own official, how can I be compared with the ancient Shengming Monarch?" ”
Mr. Bai Xiao saw that the county lord was angry, so he had to retreat aside.
At this moment, I saw the guard of the gate come to report: "Five strong men from Neihuang County ask to see." ”
When Xu Ren heard this, he was full of joy and hurriedly said, "Please let them in." ”
The official agreed to come out and ask for it. The five Yue Fei brothers walked in with the servant and came to the lobby, and the five brothers greeted Xu Ren, Xu Ren saw that the five strong men in front of him were young, dignified, and magnificent, and thought in his heart: "What happened in last night's dream should not be on these five people." ”
"Lord Xu, our county lord has a letter, asking me to hand it over to you personally, please take a look." Yue Fei said and handed over the letter.
Xu Ren took the letter and read it, and looked carefully at the five little heroes in front of him, especially Yue Fei, who was very devoted.
"A few virtuous nephews, Hong Xian, a lieutenant officer of the Imperial Court, have always had a good relationship with me, and I asked him to take more care of you, and you can officially take the exam just by going to the yamen and waiting for the summons." Xu Ren said.
When Yue Fei and the others heard this, they were very happy, and they knelt down to make a thank you gift to the county lord, and then went out of the yamen and returned to the apartment.
