Volume 1 Chapter 19 The Bandits Are Arrogance
After Xu He came out of the county government full of doubts, he went straight to Kong Huaitang.
Coming to the outside of Dazong's house, Xu He knocked on the door.
I saw a man of about fifty who walked out lame, Xu He knew this person, this person's name was Xu Yong, Xu Song's personal soldier in Huguang according to the deputy envoy, because he was injured in the battle to exterminate the local Niushou Mountain mine bandits, Xu Song took pity on his disability and had nothing to support, so he brought him back to support him as a doorman.
And when Xu Song called him to Kong Huaitang that night, he was the one who sent the message.
"Uncle Yong, is the eldest uncle at home? I have a letter from Li County's order, and I need to present it to my uncle! Xu He said politely.
When Xu Yong heard this, he didn't smile, and after receiving the greeting post from Li County's order, he said to Xu He: "Brother He, wait a minute!" ”
After saying that, he limped into the courtyard.
After a while, he came out again and led Xu He to Kong Huaitang again.
This time, there was no need to wait, Xu Yong directly let him in.
Goodbye Xu Song, it may be because of the day, the image of this uncle is different from that night.
I saw that his face was ominous blue-gray, and although his eyes were still sharp, his body could be seen to be weak!
When Xu Song saw that Xu He had arrived, he first threw the prayer note in his hand on the side casually, and then asked with interest about the scene of today's face-to-face recovery.
Xu He spoke on 1510, and Xu Song nodded with satisfaction after listening to him memorize the poem: "Poetry is to describe the scene, poetry is to Mingzhi, the poetry of the national dynasty is sluggish, in the final analysis, everyone who reads books goes to study the articles of the imperial examination, and there is no time to read other books." ”
"If you want to do a good job, you have to touch the bypass, if you just write a good article, I am not happy, but if your article is good, the poem is good, and the future achievement will not be too low!"
Xu Song was born as a second-class jinshi, Xu He didn't expect that this uncle, who had always been a quiet man, would be quite optimistic about his future.
He hurriedly bowed and saluted: "My nephew will study hard and live up to his uncle's expectations." ”
Then, Xu Song said: "You said that after the interview, you went to the second hall and saw a person named Xie Kun?" ”
"Yes, he calls himself Xie Kun, the word Ziyu, and says that he is from Jinan, Shandong!"
Xu Song looked surprised: "Sure enough, it's him!" ”
He pondered for a while, and saw that Xu He was confused and didn't know what to do, so he smiled lightly, took a sip of tea and said: "Xie Kun and Li Zhijie and other ten people are known as [Ding Wei's Ten Sons], they are all famous talents in the world, and they met when they participated in Ding Wei's annual meeting together, and since then they have been singing poetry and harmony, and they are very famous in Shilin!" ”
Xu He didn't expect Li Xianling to participate in such a small group of literati, which subverted his impression.
"This Xie Kun is uninhibited, he didn't take the Jinshi exam that year, but he became famous very early, and he is the most famous among the ten, and he knows the mountains and rivers, knows the military strategy and camps, and is a rare talent in the world!"
Uncle Xu Song's words, Xu Song keenly heard the word [military strategy]!
Combined with the things about Jiangyan's salt bandits these days, Xu He faintly had a guess in his heart.
Sure enough, in the next second, Xu Song said to him: "This time Li Zhijie asked you to send a worship post, in fact, I want to take advantage of my reputation in the township and recruit a group of villagers to help him defend the city!" ”
Xu He was shocked when he heard this: "Uncle, has the matter come to this extent?" Those salt bandits still dare to attack the city? ”
Xu Song sneered: "Why don't they dare, these people take advantage of the intricate terrain of Qinhu Lake near Jiangyanpu, and their momentum has gradually grown over the years, a few days ago, the prefect of Yangzhou also made a special trip to inform me to be careful of the movements of these people, if something is not done, he advised me to enter Hailing County, or go directly to Yangzhou City to temporarily avoid the limelight!" ”
Xu He was terrified when he heard this, people like Xu Song had other businesses in Hailing, Yangzhou, and even Jinling, he could hide, so what should ordinary people like him do in Xujia Village?
Things are not the worst, but worse, Xu Song's next sentence directly stunned Xu He: "This group of people went south from Jiangyanpu the day before yesterday, turned to the west, took advantage of the night, suddenly broke through Taixing County, killed more than 40 people, robbed the county treasury of 40,000 taels of silver, more than 300 gold beads, and when the guards reacted, they were already gone!" ”
"I want to come to that Xie Kun just in time, because he knows the soldiers, so he was temporarily used as a think tank by Li Zhijie!"
Xu He, as a person from his previous life, let alone bandits, even hooligans on the street are rare, and when he heard the news, the whole person was shocked.
Xu Song thought he was scared, so he said hesitantly: "Don't worry too much, this gang of bandits has committed such a big case, and now it has alarmed the locality, the emperor has ordered the local government to be exterminated within a limited time, and the guards of several surrounding county governments have already moved!" ”
"Besides, you are a scholar of my Xu family, and you are the head of the trial case in Jinke County, if the situation is urgent, I will ask someone to pick up your mother and son into the city!"
"Now that you have the head of the case, the fame of a talent is already in your pocket, you don't have to think about these things, just study hard......"
When Xu He came out of Kong Huaitang, the whole person was still confused.
Uncle Xu Song, as an official of Zhishi, must be better informed than these small people.
Because he is a scholar in the family, he can still find a place for his mother and son in the county seat, but ...... What about the old armor chief? What about Brother Peng?
When he returned home, the white servants of the county government had already beaten gongs and drums in front of his house.
Seeing Xu He, those people with gongs and drums came forward.
"Congratulations to Xiao Langjun for the head of the county trial! I wish Xiaolang Jun Kejia Lianjie and Gonghou Wandai! ”
When the surrounding villagers saw this scene, their eyes all showed envy.
Xu He suddenly became the legendary "other people's child"!
You must know that the head of the high school county test, not only will the government test not be defeated, but even the road test can basically pass completely.
After passing the test, Xu He is a proper student.
What is Student?
The student is Xiucai, and the saying Xiucai is a common name among the folks.
Although the student is the lowest name in the imperial examination, he also enjoys a lot of privileges, and only by obtaining the qualifications of the student can he continue to participate in the township examination and take the road of the imperial examination to become a member of the imperial examination and show his relatives and fame.
Xu He was affected by the TV series in his previous life, and he didn't care much about the fame of a student, but at this moment, when he saw the eager gaze in everyone's eyes, he realized that in this society, scholars are really respected.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that in his previous life, he had seen Hai Rui recount what he had seen in his youth.
The common people were talking, laughing, drinking, and talking on the streets, at the banquet, but at this time, a show came, and everyone was holding their breath and staring.
Xiucai was walking on the road, and the people on both sides of the street all paid attention to the salute, and called him "Zhai Chang".
Do you say it's a fear of showmanship?
Actually, no, this is because the common people feel that Xiucai has begun to be regarded as a representative of reading and etiquette, and they are afraid that they will be ridiculed by Xiucai after seeing it!
At this time, Xu Mu was still a little confused about all this.
Under the reminder of the old chief, he turned away two taels of silver and exchanged it for copper coins to seal the hard-earned money for the person who reported the news.
Then he gave Xu He a few copper coins.
"I wish Brother He'er even three yuan in the middle and middle schools!"
"I wish Brother Crane the champion in the morning!"
In a blessing, Xu He scattered the copper coins in his hand all over the sky, only to see that all the men, women and children around him squatted happily to pick them up!
