On the morning of the sixth day of the eighth month of the fourth year of the Great Shang Jingyuan, Yong'an City thundered and thundered and rained, as if it had leaked the sky. Emperor Yin Guang, who was standing at the door of the Yang Shen Pavilion, looked at the rain curtain in the sky, but showed a rare smile. Gong Wang Yin Qiang, who has always been opposed, died unexpectedly in a duel with a master, and there is no heir to the country, no one needs to treat him, God will accept it, shouldn't he be floating?

A few days ago, Yin Guang received a secret fold from Tang Jiusheng, the king of Zhou, who said that Yin Ao, the king of Zhou, had locked Ximen Yuxue, the princess of Pingxi, in the Missing Moon Pavilion in the palace for more than half a month, insulting every day, Tang Jiusheng led people to break into the palace of King Zhou to rescue Ximen Yuxue, and Yin Quan, the king of Pingxi, had a conflict with King Yin Ao of Zhou for this matter, and it seemed that the alliance of the two princes was also in vain. Yin Guang smiled and said: "It's a good thing, people don't reap the heavens, and people don't govern the heavens!"

Yin Guang was on the rise, the little eunuch Yu Fu hurriedly ran over with an umbrella, saw the emperor standing at the door of the palace, hurriedly collected the umbrella, stepped forward and knelt down with one leg, and said loudly: "Slave Yu Fu knocks on the emperor!"

Many big eunuchs have money, they bought a house outside the palace, they went home when they were not on duty, and they came to work when they were on duty. Yu Fu had no money, so he lived in the palace like an ordinary eunuch. And Yin Guang trusts him again, but whenever there is anything important that needs to be done, Yin Guang will think of Yu Fu as soon as possible.

The rain outside was windy and urgent, Yin Guang saw that although Yu Fu was holding an umbrella, the lower half of his body was drenched, he took pity on him a little, and smiled: "Get up and talk, you don't have to be so polite when no one is around! Why are you running so quickly? Don't wait for the rain to light up and come back?"

Yu Fu stood up and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this is the secret fold of the National Teacher's Mansion, and the slave is only afraid that there is something urgent, so he is in a hurry to send it!" As he spoke, he took out a secret fold from his arms and presented it to the emperor with both hands.

Yin Guang took the secret fold, opened it and looked at it a few times, and his expression couldn't help but change. The song was written by the national teacher Tang Fulong, saying that Tang Jiusheng was attacked by the guards of the Lingnan Royal Mansion crying with crossbows at night in Tongque Mountain, and now his life and death are unknown, and the Wei Wangfu has blocked the news and is sending people to look for Tang Jiusheng's whereabouts.

Yin Guang's face couldn't see the joy and sorrow clearly, but his hands suddenly trembled, Yin Guang turned around and returned to the Cultivation Pavilion, Yu Fu didn't speak, just silently followed behind the emperor. Yin Guang sat down on the chair, and didn't look at the two imperial eunuchs on duty, but just whispered: "Go and invite Father Shang!"

Soon, Yang Jingzhong, the chief administrator of the inner hall with purple robes and white hair and white eyebrows, hurriedly walked into the Yang Shen Pavilion, the old eunuch did not have an umbrella, but he was covered in rain, which was enough to see the height of the martial realm. Yang Jingzhong walked quickly to Yin Guang, bowed slightly, and said in a narrow voice unique to eunuchs: "The old slave has asked the emperor to say goodbye! I wonder what the emperor has to say when he is in a hurry to summon the old slave?"

Yin Guang handed Tang Fulong's secret fold to Yang Jingzhong, Yang Jingzhong opened the secret fold, and after reading it carefully, he nodded quietly, "The old slave knows, the old slave will send someone to secretly search for the whereabouts of King Wei, does the emperor have any other orders?"

The weather had just entered autumn, but Yin Guang's heart was as cold as winter, Yin Guang tried his best to sit up straight in the chair, looked at Yang Jingzhong, and his voice was a little hoarse, "Father Shang, I only want to explain two things. The first thing, no matter how much it costs, he must find Tang Jiusheng, he must see people alive, and he must see corpses when he dies! Second, he must die when he cried that night in the Lingnan Palace! For the rest of the things, Father Shang can do it at his discretion!"

"The emperor can rest assured! The old slave will do it, and the old slave will retire!" Yang Jingzhong bowed his head and retreated, turned around and left the Yang Shen Pavilion where the night stone was placed because of the dark sky. Since Yang Jingzhong went south and returned north, and the forbidden army was regained control by Yin Guang, there have been some subtle changes in the relationship between the monarch and the minister, on the surface, Yang Jingzhong is still loyal to Yin Guang, but there are some things that the two of them will not say as before.

Yu Fu looked at the emperor who had lost his spirit in an instant, and stopped talking. Yin Guang asked softly, "Yu Fu, what do you want to say?" Yu Fu thought about it, but still shook his head and didn't say anything.

Qinghe Village is not big, more than 200 households, behind the Tongque Mountain, at the foot of the mountain opened a few fields to plant some crops, next to the village is a bay of Qinghe River. The ancestral hall in the village is in the middle of the village, which is somewhat dilapidated, but it can still be used. Dozens of children in the village sat neatly in the ancestral hall and listened to the lecture of the newcomer Mr. Shuisheng.

This teacher is very interesting, and he can always tell the words and stories in the book to the children in simple terms. The children had never been out of the village and didn't know what the outside world was like, so they all listened to it with relish.

For example, on the "Three Character Classic", "Xi Mengmu, choose a neighbor, the son does not learn, and the machine is broken". Mr. said that this is about a saint surnamed Meng when he was a child, and his mother moved many times in order to give him a good learning environment. The children finally understood that saints were not born, and many things were influenced by the environment.

There is a dirt road in the village that is not wide and leads into the distance outside the village, and every rainy day the road is muddy. Even if it was such a broken road out of the village, the children in the village had never gone out, after all, the nearest town was a hundred miles away, and the best means of transportation in the village was a thin donkey from the village chief's house. Can you ride your family's ploughing oxen to a small town a hundred miles away?

Mr. Shui said that Qingshui Village is too small and remote, you should read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, and strive to go to distant cities in the future to have a look and broaden your horizons. We have a big and prosperous Tianchang city in the south of the Yangtze River, and further north, there is an even bigger Yong'an City in the farther away, which is bigger and more prosperous, and millions of people live in that city. Only if you are literate can you have the opportunity to go there and even live there.

Some children want to see the distant world, so they desperately follow Mr. Shui to read and write, such as Sun Chengshan. Of course, there are also those who don't care, they just come to mess around every day, playing with their friends, such as Liu Erdan. In this regard, Mr. Shui is not annoyed, but just said that it is okay to play, and the words still need to be recognized, so as not to waste a good time.

A few days ago, a strange incident happened, suddenly two hundred lightly armed infantry with light crossbows and swords, led by a captain, walked through the village and towards the deep valley in the mountains, supposedly to train in the mountains. Qinghe Village is already extremely remote, and there are officers and soldiers who go to the depths of the mountains that are even more inaccessible to train their troops? This is a rare and rare thing. So the whole village came out to watch the officers and soldiers, but unfortunately they only saw the backs of the officers and soldiers entering the mountain.

In a few days, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming. Lu Ergen, the village head, rode a donkey, and took Xu Dalong, Qian Datou and other dozen villagers to drive three ox carts to Yanshan Town, a hundred miles away, to purchase daily necessities, and buy some moon cakes by the way. Since Shui Sheng became a teacher, Lu Ergen also began to look up to Xu Dalong, after all, it was Xu Dalong who saved Shui Sheng, so he had this teacher in the village

Mr.

Xu Dalong's big iron bucket had some fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs ready to exchange for money, Xu Dongmei handed his younger brother a few pieces of linen, and told him to change some copper plates to buy two catties of moon cakes, salt, rice and other necessary materials for life, and the most important thing is to buy a robe for Shui Sheng, and then buy a pair of cloth shoes, after all, Shui Sheng is a man who has been a gentleman, and he can't still wear old clothes, Xu Dalong agreed.

The three ox carts were also carrying other mountain goods, which were fungus, mushrooms, monkey heads, and other wild vegetables picked by the villagers on the mountain, and it is said that the big families in the county and county towns liked these things, and two merchants in the town of Smoky Hill had been buying these things for many years. The villagers had already packed all the wild vegetables and begged Mr. Shui Sheng to write the names of each family on his pockets so that he would dare to put them in the ox cart so as not to make a mistake.

Three days later, Lu Ergen, Xu Dalong, Qian Datou and others returned with a full load, and the three ox carts were full of daily necessities purchased by each family, and the villagers all cheered and came to the village yard to carry back their belongings by name. Shui Sheng knew that Xu Dalong had bought daily necessities and came over to help, and the two of them carried their things back happily.

Taking over the burden carried by her younger brother, Xu Dongmei took out a cyan robe and a pair of cloth shoes, and handed them to Shui Sheng, Xu Dongmei smiled and said softly: "Shui Sheng, you are now a teacher, unlike everyone, you have to wear robes and cloth shoes, and it is not suitable to wear short coats and grass shoes!"

Shui Sheng took the robe and shoes from Xu Dongmei's hand, and was very grateful, "Sister Dongmei, thank you for thinking about me!"

Xu Dalong on the side laughed, "It's all a family, what's polite? Quickly put it on and let my sister see it!"

Shui Sheng hurriedly took off his short coat, changed into a cyan robe, and put on his cloth shoes. The Xu family clapped their hands and laughed, what a handsome and dashing teacher!

Shui Sheng came to the table, picked up the bronze mirror used by Xu Dongmei for makeup and looked at himself, and suddenly felt as if he remembered something, but just about to think about it carefully, he immediately had a headache and couldn't remember. Aquatic people don't dare to use their brains too much, so that's the only way to forget it. The three of them ate at the same table, Xu Dongmei peeked at the aquatic life, and the more she looked at it, the more she loved it.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Shui Sheng has been coming to Qinghe Village for more than a month. At the end of summer, Xu Dalong saved aquatic life in the river, and now it is about to be the Mid-Autumn Festival. In the past month or so, the Xu family sisters and brothers have really regarded Shui Sheng as a relative, and Xu Dalong has often been triumphant and bragging to others.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the school is on holiday, and the aquatic students and the Xu family sisters and brothers celebrate the festival together, Xu Dalong has caught a few big crabs in the Qinghe River yesterday, caught a few fish, and some shrimps, and will not go fishing today.

Xu Dalong slaughtered another chicken and cooked it, Xu Dongmei cooked some side dishes, accompanied by chicken, crab, fish and shrimp, and two catties of small soju bought in Yanshan Town, a very beautiful life. Shui Sheng and Xu Dalong drank happily, not too fast, Xu Dongmei didn't drink enough, and after drinking a glass, his face turned red like a burning cloud.

The three of them were eating happily, only to see a commotion at the entrance of the village. Xu Dalong loves to see the excitement, and shouted: "Sister, Shui Sheng, you eat and drink first, I'll go and see what's lively, and I'll come back to tell you later!"
