In front of the door of the Chengxuan Mansion, the surging crowd was endless, shoulder to shoulder, all of them stretched out their heads to poke their brains and let go of the flowers and firecrackers everywhere, and the remaining red paper accompanied by the sound of blowing and beating all the way, looking forward to welcoming the arrival of the newlyweds.

When Xie Yihua and Qi Lan arrived in the front yard, they happened to see Zhang Tiange, the eldest grandson of the Zhang family of Cheng Xuanhou, who was wearing a bright red groom's dress, walking to the door of the bride's sedan chair, and with a smile on his face, he supported Hai Huanting, who was wearing a cumbersome green wedding dress and covering her face with a fan, got off the sedan chair.

The two held each other's hands together, and under the leadership of the four maids carrying red lanterns, step by step, under the congratulations of everyone, they crossed the brazier, stepped over the threshold, accepted the red dates and peanuts scattered all over the sky, and walked into the gate of the Chengxuan Mansion.

The couple walked to the main hall step by step, and the old city Xuanhou couple and the current city Xuanhou couple in it had already sat on the chairs in the main hall with a smile on their faces, looking at the couple standing in front of them happily.

Under the instructions of the ceremonial officer, the newlyweds worshipped heaven and earth, and gave the four elders respectful tea, and finally, a pair of beautiful people worshipped heaven and earth, officially announced to everyone that their wedding ceremony had been completed, and from this moment on, it was a real couple.

All the guests who came were also sincerely happy for the newlyweds, and the applause continued, until the bride left the main hall under the leadership of the bride and entered their wedding room, and all the guests returned to their places one after another and began to eat.

This wedding is very decent and thoughtful, the groom is magnificent, the future is immeasurable, the bride is also polite, everyone is beautiful, all the guests present can see at a glance the satisfaction of the city Xuanhou couple for this daughter-in-law, so, waiting for the groom's family to take turns to toast the guests, everyone's praise and praise are also very stingy, even Xie Ruqing and Gu Ruosu and his wife also hid their hearts about their grandson Xie Chango, who was studying alone outside the home, and sincerely blessed the city Xuanhou family~——

(I'm your super cute dividing line~)

Gu Ruosu and Xie Ruqing here in Kyoto are still remembering their grandson Xie Changqing all the time in their hearts, hoping that he will be safe and smooth and return from school, but they don't know that Xie Changqing at this moment has encountered an unexpected danger......

The summer wind seemed to sweep up the rivers and lakes, a mighty rainstorm darkened the village, and the sound of the wind and rain blowing on the mountains on all sides was like the waves of the sea.

At this moment, although it was daytime, the sky and the earth were bleak, like night, and the black clouds were thick, making people feel suffocated for a while......

"Master...... What should I do...... The officers and soldiers outside surrounded the village...... What should I do......" A young man who was wearing a white robe and a white hosta was now dressed in white and had become a gray robe, and his hair was scattered and he knelt in front of a white-haired old man, crying.

"Ahem, ahem...... This bunch of shafts! Shameless of them! The old man in white coughed and cursed.

"Master...... This group of people is shameless...... If it's not shameless...... Where do they dare to pervert the law for bribes...... Now...... I'm afraid we'll spread the word...... And you want to kill us......"

"yes...... Master! We just wanted to come here to preach...... This has nothing to do with us in the first place...... How did you end up in this situation......"

"Master...... You are a great Confucian...... You are a world-famous Confucian...... That Cao County order has all said...... As long as you're willing to keep your mouth shut...... will not embarrass our ...... Now, they are obviously waiting for the rain to stop, and we will come into the village and arrest ...... We have old and young...... Master...... It's better to ......," a gray-clothed disciple also knelt beside the white-clothed old man and said.

"Ahem, ahem! You bastard! You and I study to change our destiny with knowledge! Change your own destiny! Change the fate of the people of the world! Now! You have uttered such a rebellious thing! Darn! ”

"That's it! What nonsense are you talking about, junior brother! We went easy! And what about the people! What about the villagers who took us in! Are we going to watch them starve to death! ”

"So what! Now we can't save our own lives! I'll take care of them! ”

"Bastard!" Immediately, a crisp slap sounded in the room...... Then, there was a burst of people turning on their backs......

“……”

“……”

Xie Changqing, whose skin had faded from the whiteness of a few months ago and had turned into a healthy yellow-skinned color, was now wearing a blue cloth coat, holding a mechanical crossbow in his hand and a long sword on his back, guarding the door, staring at the movements of the officers and soldiers on the other side of the river, while listening to the movements inside the door.

After waiting for the people inside to turn over on their backs and finally stopped, Xie Changqing felt that his ears were clear, and then leaned against the door, thinking about what happened to him during this time......

……

……

Huaizhou's four seasons are perennially windy and rainy, especially this year, since the second month of spring, wind and rain are frequent residents of Huaizhou......

Xie Chang was born in Kyoto, but it was the first time he had experienced such weather, so it was a little difficult to adapt.

Moreover, in addition, Xie Chango's path to study is really as his grandfather Xie Ruqing said, full of difficulties.

As soon as Xie Changli arrived in Huaizhou, he went to find out where Mr. He's academy was located, and went to study at the door, but he didn't want to, and after Mr. He knew his identity, he rejected him verbally and let people drive him out.

ran into a wall at Mr. He's place, which Xie Chang Olive expected.

But he believed that there was nothing difficult in the world, but he was afraid of those who had a heart, so on the second day, he cheekily went to Mr. He's academy to audit.

This time, Mr. Crane did not drive Xie Changli out of the door, after all, Mr. Crane said many years ago that as long as he is willing to come to study, whether rich or poor, he can come to his academy to audit, but the person who teaches is not Mr. Crane himself.

But this is nothing important, after all, Xie Chango's foundation is already weak, and if he is suddenly asked to learn those very advanced truths, it will be difficult for him.

Although Xie Chango's knowledge reserve is increasing day by day, and he also goes to Mr. He's academy every day to audit, he has never been accepted by Mr. He, which is not good news after all.

But fortunately, although Xie Changolive is still young, he is very able to endure hardships, so although he encounters a wall every day and is ridiculed every day, Xie Changolive is still good-natured to face everything, and even found an errand to deliver firewood in Mr. He's academy, so that he can hide in Mr. He's academy and listen to more so-called sage teachings.

Perhaps it was because Xie Changqing came to Mr. He's academy day after day to listen and study, rain or shine, and finally on a stormy afternoon, Mr. He met him alone, gave him a chance to drive, and escorted Mr. He and several of his protégés to a remote county called Shixian in Huaizhou to give lectures.

When Xie Changqing knew the news, although he knew that the position of the coachman was not very important, but the opportunity would not come again, Xie Changqing immediately agreed to this matter, and packed his things with great interest and went on the road with Mr. He and others, and even because this matter came too suddenly, in a hurry, Xie Changqing did not write to Xie Ruqing and Gu Ruosu to report his whereabouts.

So far, Xie Ruqing and Gu Ruosu have been straight so far, although Xie Changolive has not given them news for several months, they have always thought that Xie Changolive is still in the city of Huaizhou, where the economy is most developed, and they don't know that Xie Changqing actually went to that poor and remote place alone.

If Xie Ruqing knew, he would definitely write a letter to Xie Changqing immediately, telling him the news of 'collusion between officials and bandits in Huaizhou Shixian County'.

……

……

It's a pity that there are not so many ifs in life......

Xie Changoli and Mr. Crane and others traveled a long distance to Shixian County, the county order of Shixian County was very warm to entertain the world-famous Mr. Crane and his party, and arranged good housing, not to mention, the county magistrate of Shixian County took the initiative to open up a secluded place for Mr. Crane in the county office, and gathered the children of the county, so that Mr. Crane was ready to give a three-month lecture locally with peace of mind......

The county magistrate of Shixian County can be said to take very good care of Mr. Crane and others, and there are special people to take care of food and clothing, except for not letting them leave the gate of the government at will, and sending officers and soldiers to guard them, there is almost nothing bad......

But this kind of treatment made Mr. Crane feel a little uneasy, so he wanted to find out some specific circumstances...... And this task naturally fell to Xie Chango......

There is no other reason, although the county order of Stone County is very strict with Mr. He and his disciples, but it is much perfunctory for Xie Chango, who only has the identity of a coachman, and only arranges a stable for Xie Changolive to live in......

And it is precisely because of this that Xie Changli had the opportunity to walk out of the gate of the county government under the supervision of Cao Xianling and others, and thus discovered the reason why the streets are inaccessible from the mouths of several beggars......

According to several beggars, Shixian has been plagued by bandits for many years, in order to suppress bandits, the county order levied a lot of silver money from the people to suppress bandits, originally, although these silver coins are really too much, but because they want to solve the bandit trouble as soon as possible, they gritted their teeth and paid, but this bandit has no effect, not to mention, but it has added a lot of inexplicable tax items, such as: "public security tax", "security tax", "labor tax", "security tax" and so on

Many people could only grit their teeth and pay taxes at first, but what about individuals...... Where can it accept paying these unwarranted taxes every day, so there are people who want not to pay these taxes, and even one or two scholars who want to write a letter to report the inaction of the county order, but they never think about it...... The day after the county order learned about this matter, the bandits directly entered Stone County, burning, killing and looting...... Lost all of these people's lives......

And the so-called officers and soldiers were unwilling to open the door on that day, no matter how the people knocked on the door of the government......

After this happened, what else didn't I understand, the county magistrate of Stone County and the bandits were the same people......

The people immediately wanted to rise up, but after the county magistrate knew the attitude of the people, he simply didn't pretend, and directly deducted the spring seeds that would be distributed to the people every year, not to mention, and united several wealthy businessmen in the county to raise prices, so that the people could not afford to buy food......

In the end, while the people were starving, he gave these people a chance again......

There are still those who don't want to...... It was directly driven out of the county gate and let the bandits dispose of it casually......

In the end, this method was repeated three times and twice, and the county order of this stone county finally suppressed all the people of this stone county under his tyranny......

After Xie Changhua learned about this situation, he quickly reported the situation to Mr. He, and after Mr. He learned about the situation, he didn't dare to startle the snake, so he thought of repairing a letter to the officials he knew, and asked him to bring someone to Shixian County to solve this situation......

Unexpectedly, when Mr. He's letter was just sent out just two days ago, the county magistrate of Shishi County didn't know where to know about it, so he took a team of people to catch Mr. He and others, and wanted to talk about it......

Fortunately, Mr. He's disciples always brought so many martial arts skills, and they were arrested by this Yuan County Order all of a sudden......

But in the end, Shixian County is the world of this Yuan County Commander, and they are all his people, and the disciples of Mr. He, who know martial arts, were all arrested by this Yuan County Commander after they barely covered Mr. He's escape to the other side of the river......

It coincided with the current stormy weather, and the water on the river was turbulent, so those officers and soldiers did not forcibly come to the other side of the river to arrest people for a while, and those people who lived in this vicinity heard about the reason why Mr. He was hunted down, and they were also very generous to take in Mr. He and others, and also sent food and clothing, etc., and spontaneously organized people to help Xie Changqing together, watching the situation on the other side of the river......

But...... In the end, the peasants were just a strong Zhuang family, simple, and could not be compared with those fierce and aggressive officers and soldiers, and bandits......

Therefore, the safety of Mr. Crane and others can be said to be in jeopardy......

Xie Chang could have run by himself, after all, the movement of a "groom" is something that no one cares about......

However, Xie Changli understands the truth of rabbit death and fox cooking, and also understands the truth of being a teacher for one day and a father for life, even if Mr. He does not recognize him as an apprentice, but he still regards Mr. He as his master in his heart......

Therefore, in the face of such a situation, Xie Changolive still chose to stay by Mr. He's side, but he can't only do things with affection, but also have the ability to solve problems, Xie Changolive himself does not have this strength...... But the good thing is...... The Xie family behind him has this strength......

Only, this rain ...... A little longer...... It would be nice to have it a little longer......
