Chapter 80: Not an Accident
Wang Xianling was reprimanded by the imperial court, his official body was taken away, and the reward was withdrawn.
The people he recommended were naturally also criticized, whether they were boys or officials, or righteous people, they would all be rejected.
He Qingxuan said at the beginning that the water in the boy is very deep!
"Actually, it's a good thing for you." Zhao Jin comforted: "If you take the step by step test to gain fame, then you will not fall into the hands of others, but it will be beneficial in the long run." ”
Chen Ping was surprisingly calm and said, "I understand." ”
"Even if there is no Tongziju, I will take the exam from the county exam to the palace exam!"
Zhao Jin's heart was relieved, and he reached out and patted Chen Ping's shoulder, "If you can have this ambition, Ye Lao Jiuquan will also be pleased." After speaking, he hung the wine gourd back on his waist: "I can't stay here for a long time, the matter of the county is a little strange, I want to continue to investigate along the Canghe." ”
"At least, we must find the county lord and let him settle down."
He raised his eyes and finally took a deep look at the three little boys.
"You study hard, don't take care of what you shouldn't do, don't care too much."
Chen Ping hurriedly reminded: "The issuance of official documents of the imperial court needs to be reviewed layer by layer, and it is not yet known who is framing Wang County's order, Brother Zhao, don't be impulsive." ”
Zhao Jin smiled, "Don't worry, I'm not an impulsive person." ”
Several people were in a heavy mood, and they had no intention of greeting, and after a while, Zhao Jin turned around and left.
The smell of wine dissipated in front of the grave, and after Chen Ping and the three of them worshiped Wang County's order, they returned to the academy gloomily.
None of the three of them mentioned the matter of Tongziju again, but continued to read, compose, recite scriptures, and study Shiwen.
And within a few days, the news that Chen Ping's boy was replaced for the quota spread all over Qingsong Town.
Li Yang and the others wanted to comfort Chen Ping, but Chen Ping was as if nothing had happened, but comforted them and said: "Teachers don't have to worry, as the saying goes, real gold is not afraid of fire." Without Tongziju, students will still be indomitable on the road to the imperial examination. ”
Only Li Yang was indignant, and since then he has taken the three of them with him and taught them personally.
The county exam is different from the boy's lift, and there are still three years to go.
Li Yang changed his laziness and put all his attention on them, as if he was fulfilling his last wish for his old friend.
......
On the banks of the Canghe River.
Zhao Jin has been wandering around the neighborhood for months, stepping on almost every pebble.
The river washes away the traces of the past.
Even if someone soaks in the water for so long, they are afraid that they will be buried in the belly of the fish long ago.
He could only hold on to a glimmer of hope and inquire all the way along the banks of the Canghe River.
Because of the flood discharge, many houses downstream have been emptied, and even farmland has been deserted.
It wasn't until recently that people returned to the neighborhood to start composting in preparation for the coming year's planting.
Zhao Jin changed into a dark blue power suit, green leather boots, and the iron ruler in his hand had been replaced by a hidden blade, hidden in the cuffs.
On this day, he passed by the farmland that was being composted on the south bank, and wanted to inquire if anyone had seen the nameless body of the drowned in the vicinity.
The old cows on the ridge mooed, several old people beat their knees with clay cigarette sticks, and one of them looked at the Canghe River, and suddenly said: "This flood has taken away the son of Mr. Chen's family, is Boss Chen's field still alive?" ”
Zhao Jin paused.
The old man with the cigarette stick snorted, "Boss Chen himself is gone, where is the field?" ”
"He's dead?" The old man patted the old cow on the back and said vaguely: "When did it happen?" Why didn't there even be a funeral? ”
The old man shook his head, his gray eyes fell on the Canghe River, and said, "Oh, I jumped down from here, and I helped salvage the corpse." ”
The old man on the back of the cow was shocked, but remembered that there was no one in the old man's family, so he was angry, "It's all to blame for the corrupt official, a good family, and they were treated cheaply like this!" ”
"Don't say it, the beast pretended to be at the beginning, I really believed it! How can people be so bad, you say? ”
"When I was digging a ditch, I saw that they were working here even at night, and I thought about bringing them some food, which is really unlucky!"
Zhao Jin opened his mouth to speak, and when the words came to his mouth, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly changed color.
He was also supervising the construction when the ditch was being dug that day, and the people and the yacha had been working on the north bank, and they were also resting at night.
How could anyone be digging a trench on the South Bank?
He hurriedly walked towards the old men and asked, "Old man, you just said that when you were digging the ditch, someone was also working on the south bank?" ”
Several old people were startled by him, and the person who came was tall and sharp-eyed, and immediately lowered his voice.
"Ah, yes, what's wrong?"
"When?" Zhao Jin was silent, and his heart slowly tightened.
The old man was a little stunned, and muttered, "It's the night before the river embankment collapsed." ”
"Are you sure you're over here? Remember which lot? ”
"Then how can you not remember," the old man raised his hand and pointed, "it is the place where Chen's eldest son died, just the gap in the river embankment, young man, you are not from here, are you?" ”
Gap in the embankment!
Zhao Jin crossed the picture in his mind, his heart was furious, and he ran directly towards the south bank embankment without replying.
The gap in the embankment has been washed away by the river, but the surrounding soil layer is still preserved.
Zhao Jin didn't think about it, he jumped directly into the water and groped in the turbid water.
After a while, he quickly crawled out of the water and sat down on the ground.
This place has been hit by floods, and the soil is sparse and passes quickly, but the soil layer at the gap is very thick, and it should be difficult to break away.
"Not an accident......
Zhao Jin's back was numb, as if an invisible hand was brushing it, and it was terrifying!
Ye Lao's calculation was not wrong, the flood channel could have completely diverted the flood, but someone had done something on the river embankment on the south bank!
That terrible flood was deliberately done!
So many lives were buried alive!
Beasts, beasts!
Zhao Jin suddenly rolled over and got up, and his eyes burst out with a devouring light.
......
Huating College.
Li Yangzheng looked at the poem made by Chen Ping, took a slow breath, rolled up his sleeves and picked up Ye Chongwen's poem again.
Comparing the two, his eyes couldn't help but be a little worried.
Chen Ping sat upright, his expression slightly embarrassed.
"It's flat and undulating, the battle is neat, and it can be said that it rhymes in two sentences." After a long time, Li Yang spoke again, "But my question is homesickness, this 'quiet place has no vulgar guests, and the dragon stings nine abyssal materials'...... Isn't that a bit off-topic? ”
Ye Chongwen and He Qingxuan glanced at each other, and laughed dryly unconsciously.
Li Yang was speechless, no wonder Ye Lao was often in front of him, and only praised Chen Ping for being smart and clever, learning and applying, quite talented in arithmetic, and understanding the scriptures and meanings.
It is above this poem that there are few words that have not been said.
At first, Li Yang thought that his old friend was partial to arithmetic, so he didn't care about this kind of poetry, but now it seems that ......
"Your strategy and enlightenment have always been good, and I don't need to mention this arithmetic." He paused, and spoke earnestly. "Although the poems do not account for the majority, the poems in the examination room do not seek to be amazing, at least they must be qualified."
Chen Ping looked embarrassed, "Don't be angry, teacher, in fact, as far as making poems is concerned, students are still a little anxious." ”
Chen Ping looked at his nose and nose, and he was indeed a little worse in poetry, and that was because all his energy was focused on discussing the strategy.
In the future, if you really can't help it, you can only use it as an emergency for "copying the public".
With the blessing of poetry, poetry, poetry, and ghosts, how can you not be classified as a bad student, right?
Li Yang only felt that Chen Ping couldn't hold his face and used strong words.
After a while, he sighed and said, "Li Feng." ”
"Ahem." Li Feng cleared his throat and strode in, "Teacher, please speak." ”
"During this time, you take your three juniors to study poetry and literature." said that it was three people, but Li Yang pointed at Chen Ping and said, "One hour a day." ”
Chen Ping said: "Teacher, but other subject ......"
"You're going to take the county exam, and you still have time, what's the hurry?" Li Yang hated that iron could not become steel: "If you want to be foolproof, you should keep improving!" ”
Chen Ping looked at Li Feng with a painful expression.
Li Feng had a gloating expression on his face, raised the book of poetry in his hand and shook it.
Chen Ping's eyes for help looked at Ye Chongwen again.
Ye Chongwen ignored it directly and turned his head, "Brother Qingxuan, what do you think we have at noon?" ”
The boat of friendship is capsized.
