Chapter 94: The Last Straw (4)

Depart from Xiannan City and head to the official road of Chechi King City.

There were not many officers and soldiers who led the people back to the royal city.

Most of the nearly 100 officers and soldiers who had gathered in Chenjia Village before were actually borrowed from Xiannan City.

After all, there was more than one village, and they couldn't use all their forces to take care of a village.

Now there are hundreds of middle-aged people in Chenjia Village, and only more than a dozen officers and soldiers are responsible for guiding the way, including the guy who had the most arrogant attitude when he talked to Chen Jinlan before.

"Hurry up, huh? You guys are so slow, how long will it take us to get to the royal city? If you delay the affairs of the monks, can you afford it? ”

And when he had spoken, he took up his whip and struck one of the young men.

One of the prime men in the back couldn't see it, and stood up and grabbed the whip tightly.

"Hey! We all volunteered, what do you mean by using your hands and feet?! ”

The officers and soldiers arrogantly mocked: "What about voluntariness? Voluntarily, you have to listen to me along the way! Otherwise, whether you will be able to go back alive is another matter!! ”

The words of the officers and soldiers seem to have hit everyone's pain point.

This made the prime man who stood up can't help but let go of the whip.

The officer and soldier snorted coldly, drew back the whip, and didn't say anything more, after all, it was his own side that was weak, but he already hated these two people in his heart.

End of episode.

Everyone continued on their way.

But as he walked, there was a sudden sound of rushing and killing in the distance: "Kill~~~~!" ”

Before everyone could react, they saw a group of members of the Renyi Society, including some villagers from Chenjia Village, rushing towards them with weapons in their hands.

"Brother Lan......?"

"...... everybody?"

Chenjiacun was stunned by the scene in front of him.

What's going on, everyone?

The officers and men were even more confused.

Didn't you let them go back with us of your own free will?

What's going on now?

But the speed of the members of the Benevolence Association was too fast. didn't give them a chance to react at all, they had already rushed to kill in front of them, as long as they were wearing official uniforms, they would go down with a knife!

"Ah~~~!"

In an instant, the screams came and went!

And at this time, Chen Jinlan also came to the front of the officers and soldiers led by him before.

Chen ...... Gang Leader Chen! If you have something to say, it's good to say! You want to take them back, even though you can bring them......" Before he finished speaking, he was greeted with a slash on the head!

"Die!"

"Ah——!h

A large knife slashed at the neck.

The heads of the officers and soldiers fell to the ground.

Almost in an instant, the dozen officers and soldiers were wiped out by Chen Jinlan and others.

"Arashi...... Brother Lan, what's going on? ”

Chen Jinlan directly ordered: "Don't say anything, we must withdraw from Chenjia Village before the officers and soldiers react!" ”

Immediately, a group of people rushed back to Chenjia Village without stopping.

The speed was much faster than when they were on their way to the royal city just now.

And the forcible arrest of everyone to build Zhiyuan Temple became the last straw that crushed the camel of the common people......

In addition, the 'camels' that were crushed to death were not only Chenjiacun and the Renyi Society......

……

Chechi King City.

The picture came to Lee Jin-sung.

Time returned to the moment before Li Jincheng was about to enter the examination room.

Seriously, it's not the first time Li Jincheng has taken the exam, but he is very excited today! Because he felt more confident than ever on this trip!

With the knowledge he learned from the Great King, he is confident that he can crush everyone present!

With the passage of time, the time for admission has finally arrived.

However, the candidates present did not take the lead in entering the venue with a tacit understanding.

Because there is an unwritten rule here, that is, everyone will let those second generations of officials and rich second generations enter the examination room.

They come from big academies, have backgrounds, backers, and outstanding knowledge.

No one dared to provoke.

They don't look at anyone else either.

In the past, Li Jincheng would still be a little envious of this group.

But today, he felt that it didn't matter.

is still the same sentence, he is confident in this imperial examination!

Soon, the imperial examination began.

The moment he saw the test questions, Li Jincheng was extremely excited! Because of the content of the test questions, he once consulted the king! Now, he is even more energetic!

Write like a god!

I started writing.

The entire imperial examination lasted for three days.

At the end of the day, Li Jincheng was still in good spirits! seems to be full of self-confidence, and the title of the gold list is like something in his pocket!

Soon, it was time to collect the test papers.

The process went very smoothly.

It's just that when Li Jincheng walked out of the examination room, he accidentally collided with the examiner, causing the test papers to be scattered on the ground.

"Sorry! Sorry......"

Li Jincheng hurriedly bent down to help the examiner clean up the test papers.

But when he saw the test paper, his expression suddenly froze.

Because he found that as long as it was the test paper of the children of the official family, there was a small red dot on the upper right side of their test paper.

This made him feel a little uneasy.

Seeing that he looked wrong, the examiner quickly snatched the test paper back, and then scolded him before leaving.

Over the next few days.

In the process of Li Jincheng waiting for the release of the list.

Li Jincheng's whole person was numb, and the uneasy emotion became more and more intense.

Soon, it finally came to the day of the list.

Li Jincheng went to see the list with a complicated and heavy heart.

The moment he saw the list, his whole person instantly became empty. It was as if all the three souls and seven spirits had been lost.

Because not only is he not on the list, but the people on the list are all the children of the official family! The one who marked those test papers!

At this moment, he was completely enlightened.

He finally knew why for so many years, there was no high school for children with a cold window.

He finally knew why on the list, every year it was the children of the official family.

I finally knew why the king would say this to him in the first place.

"Reader, you better get up. Don't say that I don't know the content of your imperial examination, even if you do, after I teach you, you won't be able to pass the imperial examination. ”

"For ...... Why? Don't you think that you can't carve into rotten wood? ”

"You don't understand. Got it, you won't believe it either. If you have any intellectual questions you would like to ask, just ask me. I will, try to teach you. No, I can't help it if you ask. ”

This conversation, from this moment on, has been lingering in Li Jincheng's mind.

For the next good while.

Lee Jin-sung has always been in the process of walking the dead.

Hungry to eat, sleepy to sleep, wake up and eat again.

Everything around him seemed like a thing of a horse to him.

He had no idea what he was doing.

Until one day, he sat in the teahouse as usual and cooked,

There really is only dry rice and no other dishes.

And it's a big bucket as soon as it's dry.

The crowd around him was pointing fingers at him.

And he stuffed the white rice into his mouth, and after he couldn't swallow it at all, two lines of tears suddenly flowed from the corners of his eyes: "I have been studying hard for ten years...... What is it for? ”
