31. Bribe the county order (ask for collection, ask for reading)

As expected.

After learning that Wei Tu returned to the Li Mansion to borrow the Huang family's carriage, Li Yaozu's heart underwent a subtle change.

The rhetoric he spoke to Wei Tu also tended to be equal, instead of saying that Wei Tu was "loyal" at every turn, and he used to do "duty" when he was in Li Zhai......

"The Huang family?"

"If it weren't for our Li family buying him back then, how would he be alive now? What about his second aunt? Where was that then? ”

In the study of Li Zhai, Li Xingye and Li Yaozu talked, and their words were quite dissatisfied.

A house slave sat at the same table with him during this time, and Li Yaozu and his wife often trained him, so that he could have a good relationship with Wei Tu, and he would be of great use in the future.

Although he listened to his parents, and talked to Wei Tu on an equal footing on the surface, he was polite, but he became more and more dissatisfied in his heart.

Obviously, the Li family gave Wei Tu everything, but Wei Tu still put on a posture of equality, which is really not "duty".

In addition, he is in the top ten in the county exam, and he is expected to be famous in this department...... Do you have to take into account the thoughts of a house slave before doing things?

He could bear it the other day.

But today, Li Yaozu was obviously a little more "polite" in the face of Wei Tu.

"Groveling" to former domestic slaves.

This.

Li Xingye couldn't bear it.

He thought it was Weitu who had humiliated his parents.

"Good my ancestors. Keep your voice quiet, don't be heard. Li Yaozu was startled when he heard Li Xingye's words, he hurriedly walked to the door, looked around, and saw that there was no one to follow, so he immediately closed the doors and windows.

"What's this?"

Li Xingye didn't care, and sat on the straight-backed chair near the desk.

However, when he spoke, he still obeyed Li Yaozu's words, and his voice was a little quieter.

"Bear with it for a few more days, and soon after, Dad will send him away." Li Yaozu coaxed Li Xingye.

"Okay."

Li Xingye raised his eyebrows and did not argue too much with Li Yaozu.

"By the way, Dad, let the maid bring me some more pastries, I'm hungry."

At this time, Li Xingye spoke again.

"Hungry?"

"Didn't you just have dinner?"

When Li Yaozu heard this, he immediately scolded Li Xingye in his heart for being a loser, and he felt distressed about the money.

Add a meal once a night, how much does it cost?

"How can I touch the dish he touched a second time?" Li Xingye held the Confucian sage book and said contemptuously.

……

The next day.

In the square in front of the main temple of the City God Temple, the second martial arts assessment began.

This time, the test was in the three subjects of horse archery, foot archery and competition.

After the completion of the three exams, it also means that the outfield is over, and there is only the last test of the martial arts exam, the infield strategy.

"Armor ......"

"A ...... in the middle"

Soon, the results of Weitu's horse shooting and foot shooting came out accordingly.

In these two exams, Wei Tu achieved the first grade, ranking in the forefront of all martial artists.

"He has a good horse to ride?"

Outside the field, the gentry were surprised, they didn't expect that Wei Tu, who was born in a cold room, would actually ride a green horse in the horse archery test, instead of the inferior horse provided by the county.

"What is the origin of this Weitu? Was it in the previous exam, deliberately disguised? ”

The faces of the crowd were slightly gloomy.

But soon, they dismissed the idea.

It is useless to deliberately disguise that he was from a cold room in the martial arts exam, but he may be looked down upon by the examiner and scored poorly.

"When I left the show the night before, I saw Brother Huang and his side room go to see this Wei Tu, could it be that this Wei Tu and Brother Huang have an old relationship?"

A gentleman asked curiously.

The Huang family is on the rich side of Aoki County, and every move is noticed by fellow travelers, although the scene of Master Huang and Wei Tu recognizing their relatives the day before yesterday was not seen, but Wei Tu went to the Huang family, but it was known by some gentry.

"Hmm......" Master Huang hesitated for a moment and said, "He is my nephew in the partial room, and he is also my nephew......"

"So, this Wei Tu is from the Huang family?" The gentry next to him immediately asked.

If Wei Tu was born in the Huang family, then their guess of the first game the day before yesterday might have been wrong.

In this county martial arts, Wei Tu is very likely to become the county leader.

Even if it fails to become the county leader, the results of the outfield are still more than enough to be in the top few on the list.

At this moment, in the three exams of Weitu's outfield, except for the slightly worse score in the "Dancing Knife" subject of Jiyong, which only achieved "B", the rest of the results were all first-class.

And this county martial arts, only the final infield exam is left-military strategy!

However, Zheng Guo's martial arts is "martial arts first, followed by strategy".

In other words, the results of military strategy do not have much impact on the ranking of martial arts candidates, and it is very limited.

As long as Wei Tu does not write nonsense in the military strategy examination, his results can be enough to rank among the top five, top three, and even the top in the county martial arts examination.

And the military strategy test ......

These gentry and big families can buy titles from the county magistrates.

If Wei Tu was born in the Huang family......

Then in this military strategy test, Wei Tu must pass, and there is an eighty percent probability that he can get the top position.

Hearing the gentry's question, Master Huang shook his head.

He wanted Wei Tu to become the Huang family, but unfortunately, Wei Tu worshipped a good master, and his promise to Wei Tu was beneficial - in Wei Tu's eyes, it was just as light as a feather, and it was not enough to move.

"That's good." When the gentry heard this, they were relieved and relieved.

Like the county head of the Wenju exam, the county head of the Wuju is also a Taoist exam that can directly guarantee the prefectural exam.

If you enter the Dao test, your chances of gaining fame will be much greater.

Although Wei Tu is not a member of the Huang family, his identity ...... He is a disciple of Shan Wuju in Sanyuan Township......"

At this time, Master Huang added this sentence again.

Even if these gentry didn't ask, he would have made the identity of Wei Tu known to the public and told these people today.

In doing so, it is not that he wants to use Weitu's status to elevate his identity.

What he fears is the future of Weitu.

Now a martial arts disciple is not enough to have much influence on him.

What Master Huang is worried about is that these gentry will bribe the county officials with money for the sake of the results of the list, so as to promote the "fall" of Wei Tu's achievements in the county martial arts.

should have been the leader,

But because of this, it became the second, third, and fourth.

This can happen.

As a member of these gentry, Master Huang couldn't be clearer about the filthiness of these martial arts.

"What?"

"Disciple of Wuju people?"

When the gentry heard this, their expressions changed slightly, and they were moved by Master Huang's advance notice.

Generally speaking, when assessing the candidates' results, the prefectural order will also rank the candidates according to their background.

If they don't know about Wei Tu's relationship and bribe the county magistrate and the chief examiner, it is very likely that they will be in vain, and they will offend this dark horse in the martial arts exam.

"In that case......

"This time, more than eighty percent of the county leader's ranking is Weitu's, and you and I don't have to spend money in vain......"

The gentry secretly communicated.

……

Meanwhile.

On a high platform.

Chen Xianling, who was dozing off, received a letter from the little maid at home.

He frowned slightly, and opened it to take a look.

The content of the letter is very simple, just that today Mr. Huang moved a coral landscape to his home, and Huang Wei gave her a wrong gold hairpin.

At the end of the letter, Mrs. Chen mentioned that Wei Tu was Huang Wei's nephew and a disciple of Shan Wuju in Sanyuan Township.
