When Chen Mo was wandering in the snowy peaks, Wang Anshi was sitting upright behind the bookcase, asking a person who Steward Hu had just brought.

"What's your name and where are you from?"

"Back to adults, small Xu Liqiu, hometown Dingzhou. I have been here for almost two years in military service. Xu Lidong responded cautiously.

Well?

Wang Anshi frowned slightly, slightly puzzled.

Seeing this, Steward Hu hurriedly explained: "My lord, because Baihe County belongs to a border city, the situation here is quite different from that in the mainland. Not only are there tens of thousands of troops stationed outside the city, but there is also a hundred-person squad in the city, whose main duty is to guard the gates of the city. ”

"The official knows all these things, but he is just confused about the identity of this person." Wang Anshi got up and said, "How did a soldier intersect with Chen Mo?" ”

"Lord Hui, whenever there is a big event in the city, we will be temporarily seconded, and it is because of this that I will get acquainted with Chen Mo." Xu Liqiu told the truth.

"Get up and talk about it."

Wang Anshi was curious, eager to know what Chen Mo had done.

Xu Liqiu didn't dare to hide it, and got up to tell the whole story.

After listening, Wang Anshi's face was a little ugly: "As a scholar, Chen Mo is not good at participating in the county examination, but he recited the business scriptures with all his heart, which is really ridiculous in the world." Since this is the case, the official will help him to make a reversal, and the Japanese official will personally go to the invigilator to see how perfunctory he is. ”

"My lord, Chen Mo...... I'm afraid I won't be able to take tomorrow's exam. Steward Hu answered.

"What do you mean by that?" Wang Anshi was stunned.

"It's such an adult, Chen Mo was coerced out of the city by thieves in the evening, and later was injured during a desperate fight, and he has been sent back by the little one to recuperate."

Xu Liqiu lied and said that Chen Mo was being followed and said that it was coercion.

Just now he took the leper and Ergou back to the city gate, and met the people sent by Steward Hu, who were looking for Chen Mo everywhere.

The county test is not over yet, Chen Mo said goodbye without saying goodbye, if he really wants to investigate it, the future will be completely over, so he thought of such a set of rhetoric.

As for Chen Mo, he will let his younger brother tell him as soon as possible if he leaves later, as long as the two sides say the same, it is useless for the leper to talk to Ergou.

Hearing that Chen Mo was kidnapped by thieves and was injured, Wang Anshi was furious.

After questioning and learning that Chen Mo's injuries were not serious, and the thieves were arrested twice, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Steward Hu, now you will personally send Xu Liqiu back, and convey the words of this official to the captain of the city guard, saying that such a great achievement should be rewarded, and thank him for training such a good soldier. Then I went to inform the county lieutenant Cao that the thieves who committed murder in broad daylight must be severely punished. ”

"Yes, sir."

Steward Hu responded and retreated with Xu Liqiu.

"Daddy, why does my daughter think that this thing is a little strange?" At this time, Wang Tan'er walked out from behind the screen.

"My father also has this idea, say it and listen to it, and see if our father and daughter want to go together?" Wang Anshi motioned to sit down and said.

"There are two strange things." Wang Tan'er pondered, "First, the city is safe, why did there be a kidnapped thief, and Chen Mo was kidnapped?" ”

"Second, Chen Mo is a scholar, how can he be one against three? Even if the guard arrived in time, even if Chen Mo was injured, it still seemed unreasonable. ”

"So what?" Wang Anshi nodded and asked.

"So there's only one possibility." Wang Tan'er's eyes flashed with a bright luster, "Chen Mo is a person who is really hidden. ”

"Haven't you already seen the clues from those poems?" Wang Anshi used questions as a guide.

"My daughter has two things she wants to ask her father." Wang Tan'er didn't answer the rhetorical question.

"Ask."

"How talented is Chen Mo?"

"Among the peers I have seen for my father, I am the first." Wang Anshi did not hesitate to praise.

"What about character?"

"If you say something good, you are honest and honest, and you are happy and free, but if you say something ugly, you are stubborn and careless, and your heart is not right." Wang Anshi scolded, and he was also unambiguous.

"Daddy has read countless people, what do you think of Chen Mo's achievements in the future?"

"Two extremes." Wang Anshi said solemnly, "Either it is unknown to the public, or it is heard all over the world." ”

"What kind of person do you want him to be?" After Wang Tan'er asked, her eyes were shining.

Wang Anshi was silent for a long time, and shouted to the outside.

"Immediately go to inform the academy of Lu Jiaoyu, tomorrow I will send the test paper of the strategy to Chen Mo's house, and after he finishes answering, he will directly bring it to the official for review."

"Daddy, do you value Chen Mo so much?" Wang Tan'er smiled.

"Isn't that what you want to see?" Wang Anshi also smiled.

"Tan'er...... Tan'er just didn't want that talent to be buried, but wanted to see what kind of answer sheet he would hand in if he took the exam seriously. Wang Tan'er bowed her head in response.

"Coincidentally, my father just wants to dig up, how much real material is hidden in Chen Mo's body. If you can help him take the road of fame, will he become a pillar of the country? ”

After Wang Anshi finished speaking, he left with a big laugh.

Wang Tan'er, who was left, pushed the window and looked at the crescent moon.

If the theme is the moon, what kind of poetry can Chen Mo make?

……

Under the same crescent moon, Chen Mo had already come to Taoyuan, and the fierce battle just now did not make him feel tired, on the contrary, he felt refreshed.

"Brother Tu, why do you have to burn charcoal overnight?" Lin Xiaoshu asked with a saw.

"Isn't it Brother Heitu, why did you become Brother Tu again?" Chen Mo picked up an axe.

"Brother Heitu shouted and panicked, so he came out of his mouth." Lin Xiaoshu urged, "You haven't answered my question yet, aren't you going to sleep tonight?" ”

"I don't sleep." Chen Mo nodded, "Let's cut the wood into the kiln together, and then I'll stay and watch, you go and contact the strong labor neighbors, and call them all over at dawn." The kiln on Wang Fuxing's side has already been built, and we can't lag too far behind, and we must start construction tomorrow when we return to Longwan. ”

"Okay, just do what Tuge said."

After Lin Xiaoshu finished speaking, he threw off his arms and started to work.

Chen Mo rolled his eyes and sped up.

The charcoal burned this time is of higher standard, and any wood thinner than the small arm cannot enter the kiln.

"Brother Tu, this is too wasteful, isn't it?" Lin Xiaoshu complained.

"Don't worry, these branches are used for other purposes, not a single one will be wasted, and I will let you see what it means to turn waste into treasure when the time comes." Chen Mo said confidently.

With Chen Mo's assurance, Lin Xiaoshu didn't ask any more questions, and the two of them were busy until the rooster crowed, and then they got the logs of the entire kiln in place.

Lin Xiaoshu went to contact Zhuang Laoli, and Chen Mo didn't dare to be idle, this kiln charcoal was used by him to deal with Wang Fuxing, and he had to grasp the heat well.

After dawn, Lin Xiaoshu went and returned, but there were only two people behind him.

One of them is Qin Xianglian, who came to deliver breakfast.

Chen Mo's heart suddenly felt uneasy.
