Chapter 37: In front of you

Tian Yao can be said to do whatever she wants, as soon as she said that she missed Grandma Sun, she began to pack her luggage and plan to go home to see Grandma Sun.

"This one, that one." Tian Yao was busy here, sweat the size of a soybean was dripping on his forehead, and the government also sent a large number of people over, and also posted a missing person notice on the wall-Tian Yao. After inquiring in inns and restaurants, the officers and soldiers finally searched for Tian Yao's location.

"Brother, there are officers and soldiers looking for you!" Ah Ning looked out the window at the large-scale officers and soldiers and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Officers and soldiers?" Tian Yao's hand in packing up his clothes stopped, and said, "I didn't know that I had committed a crime." ”

She is a good citizen who does not burn, kill, fornicate, plunder, or rob, how can the government find her if she has nothing to do?

"Yes, and there are portraits on the walls." A-Ning is reporting on the situation of the battle from time to time.

When Tian Yao packed up his clothes, the officers and soldiers ran over in a hurry, knocked on the door and asked, "Is Tian Yao's son here?" ”

The three people in the room looked at each other, Tian Yao felt that she was not afraid of shadows, and she didn't make any mistakes, what was the panic?

Tian Yao went over to open the door, and a large group of officers and soldiers rushed in to surround Tian Yao and encircle Tian Yao.

Ah Li frowned and slowly stepped forward.

The leading soldier said to Tian Yao: "The county commander has an invitation, and I also ask Tian Gongzi to take a trip." ”

Tian Yao's face sank, but his expression was as calm as ever, and he said, "What is the matter with the county magistrate looking for me?" ”

The soldier stepped forward and continued to persuade: "Tian Gongzi, it's about the written test, and I also ask Gongzi to give him a face, so as not to embarrass us people." ”

Tian Yao felt that these were all things, but she still said to the leading soldiers: "It's okay, but I want to go with my brother, so it's okay, right?" ”

Ah Li had already begun to gather momentum in his hand, intending to rescue Tian Yao, but suddenly heard Tian Yao shouting his name in the circle, and his hand was unloaded. The soldier felt that the two sides should not be too embarrassed, and that this matter was still very easy to do, so he agreed.

"I'll talk to my brother first." Tian Yao walked out of the encirclement, walked to Ah Ning and comforted him: "I have something to solve now, what about you, can you stay first?" Xiao Er will deliver the meal. ”

A-Ning was a little scared of the officers and soldiers since he was a child, and his small body couldn't stop trembling at this time, but he still gave Tian Yao a reassuring smile and said, "It's okay, brother, A-Ning is waiting for you to come back." ”

Tian Yao rubbed Ah Ning's head, and went out with Ah Li with the officers and soldiers.

The two were surrounded by officers and soldiers, but the officers and soldiers did not do anything, just saw them off all the way. Ah Li looked at Tian Yao's calm face, couldn't help but stretch out his hand to learn from Ah Yao's appearance when he touched Ah Ning, and gently rubbed his big hand on Tian Yao's head to express comfort.

Tian Yao was puzzled, and did not understand Ah Li's behavior, and asked, "Brother Ah Li, what are you doing?" ”

Ah Li coughed, and his eyes drifted away.

The soldiers escorted Tian Yao to the official mansion and completed the task and retreated. The county magistrate Chen Ming sat on the stage, and saw Tian Yao's eyes glowing green like a wolf seeing meat, and said to Tian Yao: "You are Tian Yao, right?" "Zanjing King" was written by you? ”

Tian Yao nodded, Chen Ming felt that it was still inappropriate, what if it was copied by Tian Yao?

"You can write another article now, and if I think it is good, I will recommend you to be an official; If you can't write it, then I will convict you of deceiving the examiner. Chen Mingpo didn't think it was bad. After all, an official position is something everyone wants.

But Tian Yao didn't think so, but in terms of the purpose of more things than less, she still compromised.

Ah Li stood aside, looking at Tian Yao, who was on a table and a stool in the center of the yamen, with a pen and paper in his hand.

What should I write this time? Tian Yao looked at Ah Li, last time I wrote "Praise Jing King", this time I will write "Praise Ah Li", Tian Yao smiled lightly, and picked up the pen and began to write.

Ah Li's eyes are soft, Tian Yao's serious and focused expression, and the expression of writing stroke by stroke are all fascinating.

Obviously, Chen Ming was also attracted by this look, and looked at Tian Yao who was writing stupidly.

Ah Li looked at Chen Ming's side with a cold knife, Chen Ming's back was cold, and he came to his senses.

But in a quarter of an hour, Tian Yao put down the ink on the paper and said confidently: "I'm done." ”

Chen Ming couldn't hold back and wanted to read Tian Yao's article for a long time, so he swished down and picked up the paper and looked at it word for word, and said from time to time: "Okay, good!" ”

Tian Yao was embarrassed.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Chen Ming said to Tian Yao unsatisfied: "Your "Zana Li" is better than "Zanjing King"! ”

Ah Li heard his name and smiled at Tian Yao, this girl ......

Chen Ming put away the paper and said generously to Tian Yao: "What official do you want to be?" ”

Tian Yao arched his hand and said: "Back to my lord, I am not talented, and I don't want to be an official for the time being." Chen Ming didn't seem to expect that someone would say that he didn't want to be an official? Slightly stunned, he said: "Be an official to serve the court." You don't want to be an official? Some scholars can't have this brilliant future in their lives, but you give up, why is this? ”

"There is an old mother at home, and now Xiaosheng just wants to go home to visit her." Tian Yao replied.

But Chen Ming still didn't seem to let go, and continued to persuade: "I, Chen, have always cherished talents, you have this talent, I will recommend you like a thousand miles of horses and Bole, and there is only one chance." ”

Ah Li stood in front of Tian Yao and said in a deep voice: "Lord County Order, Brother Tian disagrees. Is this how your government forces people? ”

Chen Ming was blocked by Ah Li and couldn't speak, but when he saw Ah Li's appearance as a country man, he suddenly felt that his face couldn't hold it, so he said to Ah Li: "You are a country man, what do you know!" ”

"Oh, you don't know how to write!" Chen Ming is a scholar of literature, so naturally some scholars are arrogant, so they ridicule this kind of uneducated person.

"That's better than the county magistrate using officers and soldiers to 'invite' people for no reason and not asking the reason for retaking the test, right?" Ah Li said.

Chen Ming choked and couldn't speak, who would say that what he did was wrong when he was the county magistrate? Ah Li is naturally the first person.

"Tian Yao, are you an official or not?!" Chen Ming asked.

Tian Yao naturally didn't want to be this dog official, at this time she was wearing a man's body, if she was an official, wouldn't it be exposed, since ancient times, no woman has ever been an official.

If it is exposed, it will affect ...... Tian Yao looked at Ah Li.

"Let me think again!" Tian Yao resorted to delay, and Chen Ming felt that it was not good to bully people like this, so he agreed.

"Okay."

After releasing Tian Yao and Ah Li, Ah Li felt that Chen Ming really lacked a lesson.

After the results of the exam were announced a while ago, it caused an uproar in the city.

As usual, some people were happy and some worried after the gold list was posted, but in this exam, a dark horse and a nobody were killed, but the article shocked the examiner, and even came to recommend the official.

The incident quickly spread, and everyone didn't believe it at first, but a neighbor who witnessed the examiner visiting Tian Yao's house came out to testify, and the truth was already certain.

Within a few days, Tian Yao's residence was full of people.

After finally receiving some of the visiting guests, she took a moment to rest by the side door.

"Tired?"

Ah Li looked at the girl standing outside the threshold and handed over a clean handkerchief.

Tian Yao caught it and wiped the fine sweat that came out of her forehead, "Well, I didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic." ”

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, and she didn't know which "well-wisher" leaked her residence to attract so many onlookers.

"Enthusiasm is not necessarily." Ah Li listened to her words, lowered his eyebrows and said.

Tian Yao wiped his sweat for a moment, and the smile on his face faded a little.

Of course, she understands the meaning of Ah Li's words, and she also knows this, among so many visitors, sixty percent have the intention of clinging, and thirty percent are jealous and unwilling to believe, and how many are sincere blessings to her?

But whether the visitor is a guest, no matter how clear she is in her heart, she must treat the guest with a smile, and she can't offend people, so as not to fall into a notoriety of arrogance.

Tian Yao was thinking about it, and suddenly the figure in front of him flickered, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be Ah Li who handed over a cup of tea, and he couldn't help but smile.

Outside, the "long queue" lined up a few feet outside the door, and the visitors waited and talked about it.

"Who the hell do you think this is? I've never heard of this person before, why did it suddenly pop up? ”

Another person continued: "No matter how much he cares, it's just right to be able to make friends with people now." ”

The more they talked, the more energetic they became, attracting others to join in the discussion, but no one noticed that outside the crowd, a scholar listened to everyone's discussion with a very strange expression.

This is the Xiucai who participated in the township test with Tian Yao and others this time, surnamed Chen, who usually thinks very highly of himself, and has had several encounters with Tian Yao, but he has a contempt for the two of them, thinking that the child will not become famous. Who knew that Sun Shan fell in this township test, and Tian Yao, who had always looked down on him, won the first place in one fell swoop.

He couldn't accept the fact that he was in the first place, and then he heard about Tian Yao's amazing deeds, and he was shocked and didn't want to believe it, but he still followed everyone to find out, if it was fake, his heart would be more comfortable, and if it was true, he could take this opportunity to climb Tian Yao and them.

"I didn't expect that kid to be so powerful." Chen Xiucai looked at the crowded crowd at the door, his eyebrows showed a complicated color, seeing this scene, he finally believed that the rumored genius was Tian Yao.

"Long Dragon" slowly moved forward, and finally it was Chen Xiucai's turn.

When he wanted to enter the house with the crowd, his heart suddenly swelled up with a little timidity, the leg seemed to be poured into a thousand pounds, and he couldn't move it, someone behind him impatiently urged him to hurry up, Chen Xiucai panicked, and subconsciously took a step to the side.

After taking this step, he suddenly reacted, because this time was equivalent to leaving the team directly! But it was too late, and the vacancy was quickly filled by the crowd behind, and others didn't care whether he left intentionally or not.
