Chapter 262: The Mysterious Man in Black
Su Mutou in Fengle County used to be the elm head that everyone in Fengle County knew about, but as the son-in-law of the Xiucai family, he was not enlightened until he was fifteen years old. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info has even become a negative teaching material for parents to educate their children in Fengle County.
However, since half a year ago, this Su Mutou suddenly became enlightened, as if he was a completely different person. First of all, he was a blockbuster in the county exam, directly defeated all the candidates, won the first place, and wrote a poem about Mingzhou as a Mengtong.
After that, he was not afraid of the threat and power of Zhao Shuang of the Zhao family, and he used his ingenuity to win 100,000 taels of silver from Zhao Shuang's Zhao family money bank. At the same time, in the face of the vicious stepmother, Su Lin was righteous and awe-inspiring, carried forward the Confucian virtue of "forgiveness", and his younger brother Su Wen also did his "filial piety".
At this point, Surin's reputation is only within the confines of a county. It became a topic of conversation for the people in the county after tea and dinner, but immediately after, Su Lin wrote several poems of the town and the country one after another, and even the monarch issued a holy decree to commend him.
At the same time, on behalf of the child of Fengle County, Su Lin defeated Ji Yu of the Semi-Holy Family in the government examination and won the first place in Xiucai. All of a sudden, the news spread to Fengle County, making the people of Fengle County follow.
Later, within a year, in addition to the county and government exams, Su Lin also signed up for the state exam. When others thought that Su Lin was beyond his strength, once again, he won the first place Xie Yuan with an absolute advantage.
Now, it is such a Su Xie Yuan, who has won glory for Fengle County, who has returned to his hometown with honor, which has made the people of Fengle County boiling. Those who looked down on Su Lin in the past and laughed at Su Lin, where do they still remember that clumsy Su Mutou now?
Even the old gentlemen in the Fengle County Official School are now pinching their beards while boasting complacently: "Su Jieyuan was taught by the old man back then!"
As for the people in Fengle County, if it weren't for the county order Xu Wenliang to send someone to guard the Su Mansion as soon as possible, I am afraid that the grass and trees in the Su Mansion would have been pulled out long ago, just to get a touch of Su Lin's talent.
It can be said that the genius representative of Wu Guonei is no longer the prodigy deeds of the scholar Li Yuncong, but the legend of Su Lin, a "late bloomer" who only opened his mind at the age of fifteen. Even if there are some children in the family who are really stupid and have not been enlightened until they are twelve or thirteen years old, their parents are happily hoping that their sons can also be like Su Lin and Su Xie Yuan, as soon as they are enlightened at the age of fifteen, their talents will sweep all directions, and they will win the head of the case, Maocai and Xie Yuan.
"Welcome Su Xie Yuanrong back to his hometown......"
"Su Jieyuan, the fathers and elders in my hometown have been looking forward to your coming back for a long time......
"Su Jieyuan, you are the pride of our Fengle people......"
"Su Jieyuan, why don't you set up a school in your hometown! Teach your intelligence and talent to the children in your hometown......
......
Surin's carriage stopped at the gate of the city, and as soon as it got out of it, the people immediately gathered around. The enthusiasm came like a tidal wave, so that Su Lin almost couldn't resist it.
"Folks, calm down, Su Xie Yuan is tired of carriage and horses, you need to have a good rest, please retreat from the folks......
Even the county magistrate Xu Wenliang couldn't have imagined that these people who spontaneously came to welcome Su Lin would be so enthusiastic, and hurriedly beckoned the officials to maintain order at the city gate, so that Su Lin and the others had a place to walk.
"I'm really sorry! Su Lin, now that you are famous, the fathers and elders in your hometown are naturally too enthusiastic. The county received the news that you are going back to Fengle County, and it was also prepared overnight, and we are waiting for you here. What's more, the monarch's decree has reached Fengle County, and Su Lin is invited to accept it!"
Originally, no matter how famous Su Lin was, he was just a lifter, and the county magistrate Xu Wenliang himself was the Jinshi county magistrate, so there was no need to make such a big pomp to welcome Su Lin. It turned out that the monarch Sun Jianshi had issued a holy decree to summon Su Lin to enter the Guozijian before, and it was directly sent to Fengle County, so the county commander Xu Wenliang passed the decree to Su Lin.
"It turned out to be the king's decree?
As soon as they heard the decree, all the people around them trembled and immediately stopped the noise, knelt on the ground, and bowed their heads to listen to the decree. And Su Lin and the others have a civil position, and they don't even need to bow down to meet the monarch, and they only need to bow half-bowed to show respect.
"Fengle County Su Lin received the order, carried by the sky, and the emperor said. Su Lin is a talented person, and he is a talented person. Repeatedly wrote poems for the town, which is beneficial to the country, the merit is in the community, and the officials are rewarded, and it is difficult to be talented...... This time, I pity his talents, and specially summon him to enter Beijing and enter the Guozijian, and I admire this!"
As soon as the words of the county commander Xu Wenliang fell, Su Lin made a holy decree, and the people in Fengle County broke out with a burst of celebration.
"His Majesty the Emperor personally ordered our Su Xie Yuan to go, I heard that Guozijian is the most powerful academy in our Wu Kingdom, and the students in it are all princes and imperial relatives, and the worst ones are also the children of the scholars of Hanlin University......
"What are the sons of Hanlin University scholars, haven't you heard of it? Su Xie Yuan is now the son of the Su family in Jian'an Mansion, does the prince know? Only a half-saint family can have a son, and even in the temple, there is a register, corresponding privileges, and even more noble than the prince of a country......
"The Su family has become a half-saint family? Su Lin is the son? Oh my God! I was able to see the son of the half-saint family with my own eyes, and ...... Or watched him grow up ......"
......
In the face of the discussion of the people of Fengle County, Su Lin could only listen to it, but his sister Su Ru seemed to enjoy this feeling very much, blinked her cute big eyes, and said with a smile: "Brother, brother, listen, everyone looked down on you in the past, saying that you were a stupid Su Mutou, but now, who dares to say that my brother is a stupid person? They all say that you are a genius, a genius that is rare for a thousand years!"
"Ru'er, don't talk nonsense, where is there such an exaggeration, go, the holy decree has been received, let's go back to the old house and have a look!"
Su Lin smiled, and thanked Xu Wenliang, the county magistrate: "Xu Xianling, I have been away from Fengle County for half a year, and the old house at home is thanks to your care." ā
"Surin, you're just going to see me. You are a genius who went out of Fengle County under my rule, you must know that if you don't pass a imperial examination, I will also gain an increase in fame. I can do what I can to be busy. It's just that!haha...... When you see the enthusiasm of these people, you know that now that you are only in the middle of the Yuan, they are eager to take home all the pots and pans used in your house and offer them. If you really win the champion, I'm afraid that these fathers and elders of Fengle County will have to take away all the wall fur and grass roots of your family......"
The county commander Xu Wenliang touched his chin and smiled, "But don't worry, I have sent Qin Catcher to guard them at the gate of the Su Mansion, and ordinary people can't enter." What was it like when you left, and what are you still like now......"
However, as soon as Xu Wenliang finished speaking, a messenger rushed out of the city, and shouted loudly: "Lord County Commander......! A man in black knocked us unconscious and broke into the Su Mansion......"
The crowd immediately moved out of the way, and the catcher hurriedly ran in front of Xu Wenliang and Su Lin, and said breathlessly.
"What? What's going on, what is the man in black? What about Qin Zhutou? Come quickly. ā
The county magistrate Xu Wenliang's whole face darkened, and he had just assured Su Lin that Su Mansion was safe and sound, but in the blink of an eye, his subordinates shouted that something had happened, how could he, the county magistrate, hang on his face?
"A man in black has broken into my old house?"
Su Lin's face also showed surprise, and he asked the catcher, "What is the specific situation, tell me quickly." ā
"That's right, Lord County Commander, Su Jieyuan. Qin Zhutou took his brothers and stood guard in front of several gates of the Su Mansion, in order to dissuade some fathers and villagers from stealing items from the Su Mansion without permission. However, this morning, Qin Zhutou suddenly found that there was a suspicious man in black who wanted to sneak into Su Mansion over the wall, so he stepped forward to stop it, but who knew that he was knocked unconscious by the man in black on the spot. When we found Qin Zhutou, Qin Zhutou immediately asked the villain to come and inform the county magistrate, and he himself took the other brothers to the mansion to search for the man in black......"
Catching quickly and slowly explaining the cause and effect of the matter, the county commander Xu Wenliang frowned, and thought: "This is strange, he can knock out Qin Zhutou who has a humanistic rank with one move, and this mysterious man in black is at least a scholar or above." Why did he break into the Su Mansion? It can't be the same as those people, just to get into Su Jieyuan's talent, right?"
"Brother, what's going on?, someone broke into our old house?" Su Ru asked nervously when she heard this.
"Shizi, the man in black, could it be that he came for such a treasure?"
Ye Hongye, a university scholar, stepped forward and said in surprise, "I'm afraid that the matter leaked out of the news, and it was discovered that the treasure was hidden in the old mansion of the prince." ā
"Yes, the mysterious man in black is most likely here for that treasure. Xu County Order, please take care of my sister Su Ru and Zijin. Ye University Scholar, Xiang Jinshi, Fast ...... The two of us hurried to my old house, and we couldn't be preemptive...... That kind of treasure is very important to me. ā
Su Lin nodded, and after entrusting his sister Su Ru and the others to Xu Xianling, he immediately beckoned Ye Hongye and Xiang Kaiwu, and the three of them quickly transported the holy power spell, jumped forward, and rushed towards the old house of Su Mansion in the city.
