As soon as Xue Zha was put around his neck by Zhou Ting with an iron chain, Zhao Xi and Tang Xu entered the bedroom under Xue San's urging.

The two put down the four wooden boxes in their hands, Xue San pushed two of them in front of Zhou Ting, and after politely opening them, they revealed the silver ingots neatly stacked inside, and the silver light stabbed people subconsciously.

Zhou Ting put away the chain with a smile, he chewed his teeth and said, "Brother...... You're still so sensible, you're making it difficult for me to do it!"

Xue Zha also laughed, he took out two gold bars from under his bed, stuffed them into Zhou Ting's arms and said, "Don't embarrass the eldest brother, just one thing, help me send two boxes of gold ingots to the eldest master." ”

Zhou Ting touched the gold bar in his arms, his eyes fell on the two wooden boxes at Zhao Xi's feet, Zhao Xi bent down politely and said, "Brother Zhou, I know that the Yushi has privileges, and killing people is not a crime." ”

"Our helper is already a linguist, but he hasn't had time to take the exam yet, so I ask Brother Zhou to help, and ask the eldest master to take the exam first and then try the case, so that no one can make it difficult. ”

As he spoke, he casually opened the two wooden boxes in front of him, revealing the two boxes of golden ingots in them.

Zhou Ting swallowed and foamed, and he said in his heart: The Axe Gang is really willing to give up this time......

"Okay then...... Brother, let's go, you go slowly, enter from the main gate of the county government, I will go to the back door, and say hello to the eldest master first. ”

Xue Zha nodded, and while he arranged for someone to send two boxes of silver ingots to Zhou Ting home, he arranged for a donkey cart to send him and two boxes of gold ingots back to the county office.

Shaoqing, behind the shadow wall of the back hall of the county government, Zhou Ting knelt in front of two boxes full of gold ingots, bowed and said to the county master: "Master, Xue Zha did say so, I only need you to give him a chance to be assessed, and you don't need to make an exception for him." ”

The county lord of Wuyun City is a white-faced middle-aged man with no beard under his chin.

He was wearing a cyan official robe, a white belly shirt on his chest embroidered with mandarin ducks, a black gauze hat on his head with a pair of wings on the left and right, and a pair of black official boots under his feet.

Zhou Ting knelt on the ground with his head down, he could only see the tips of his boots, saw his toes move, and heard the seal on the box be torn off, and the sound of the gold ingots colliding came into his ears, and he vaguely heard a cooing sound of spittle, and said in his heart: It's okay.

After a while, the county magistrate sat on the lobby, grabbed the startled Tang Mu with his hand, and shouted angrily: "Ascend to the hall!"

The third class of officials stood in two columns on the left and right, and after hearing the shout of the old man, they knocked on the ground with their sticks and shouted: "Wei...... Wu ......"

There are two people standing on the left and right of the hall, on the left is Wang Yuan, a thin and thin language priest in a robe, and on the right is Xue Zha, the leader of the Axe Gang who wears a white coat on his upper body, a pair of black shorts on his lower body, and a pair of straw sandals on his feet.

Xue Zha noticed that the county magistrate glanced at him without a trace, and then asked in a deep voice: "Who is the person set up by the court? Who is the plaintiff and who is the defendant, and how to discuss the explanation, quickly say!"

With a snap, Wang Yuan was frightened, I don't know why, he was obviously wearing a robe, and he didn't need to kneel down to the county master, but he always felt that there was a coercion rolling towards him, making his heart tremble, and he didn't even dare to raise his face.

As soon as he was about to speak, he heard Xue Zha next to him shouting: "The big master sees it, and the little one is here to assess the linguist!"

Wang Yuan next to him was stunned for a moment, and then his face was flushed with anger, and his fingers Xue Zha shouted: "Lord Ming! I am the plaintiff...... I want to sue him Xue Zha for killing my eldest brother Hu Feng, please call the shots, and ask the eldest master to execute him in public,......"

The county magistrate didn't wait for Wang Yuan to finish speaking, grabbed the startled wood and slapped it fiercely, pointed at Xue Zha and said, "Who are you?

"You must know that the official's time is precious, and you have passed the assessment, if it is a pastime...... Hmph, this official is going to punish you [Ming Zhengcanon]!"

As soon as the four words of [Ming Zheng Punishment] came out, the phantom of the people shouting and the swords and swords appeared in front of the hall, and a wave of coercion enveloped Wang Yuan, and with a poof, he gasped and knelt down directly.

Xue Zha knew that the two boxes of gold ingots were not in vain, so he immediately took two steps forward and bowed and said, "Please be gracious, the little one will be able to successfully pass the assessment!"

The county magistrate touched his bare chin, nodded and said, "That's good, if you can really be admitted to the language master, you are also an official who is well educated." This official has set up an examination room for you in the classroom, and if you can be admitted to the language teacher in public, it will also be a good story. ”

"Come on, give incense, pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"

The county magistrate glanced at Wang Yuan, who was sitting on the ground, and waved his hand to carry him out.

In the lobby, Xue Zhe took a seat after saluting.

The county magistrate asked him to prepare a table for the exam at a place to the left near the door.

In addition to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, there is also a copper incense burner, and a three-inch-long fine incense has just been lit inside, as long as Xue Zha can write ten idioms before this pillar of incense is extinguished, then he will pass the exam, not too simple.

Xue Zhe thought the same way, ten idioms, forty words, he can finish things in minutes, where can he use the time of a stick of incense?

He was just about to pick up a pen to write, when he suddenly felt someone staring at him outside the lobby, and when he looked back, Wang Yuan didn't know when he and Su Xiaoman stood together, and the two were talking and laughing at him, looking at the curvature of the corners of their mouths, it shouldn't be boasting about themselves.

"When Lao Tzu is admitted to the language master, he will slap you to death!"

He snorted secretly, and was about to drop the tip of the ink-stained brush on the white rice paper.

It stands to reason that Xue Zhao did not sell his calligraphy for money in his previous life, this literary continent still uses Chinese Simplified, writing ten idioms is easy for him, but when his first stroke falls, he feels that the tip of the pen is like a knife carved on a stone, every time he advances, he has to use all his strength, he can't help but hold the pen butt with both hands and lift it, with the help of the whole person's strength to write the first word well.

After writing the word "one", his forehead was already covered with sweat.

This scene fell into the eyes of Su Xiaoman, who was standing outside the hall, and made her feel at ease.

"I think if I master a few more idioms, I can get the linguist exam? I don't think he can even pass the linguist exam!"

"That's it, Su Nuxia is right, when I took the language exam, I ate a ginseng in advance and barely passed, he didn't prepare anything, he experienced a big war yesterday, and today he can write two idioms even if he wins!"

Wang Yuan hurriedly echoed her, and when he saw the fifth senior brother next to him, he pouted and said in his heart: Sycophant!

In the lobby, the county lord who was sitting in front of the blue sky and white sun shadow wall, a pair of thin eyebrows frowned slightly, he glanced at Zhou Ting without a trace, and saw that this subordinate was also full of suspicion, he touched his face and said: How should I put my old face?

The Axe Gang, who came to see their own master language examiners, were obviously divided into two factions.

Zhao Xi and Tang Xu couldn't help but start singing.

"Is the helper kidney deficient? You see that he sweats so much just after writing a stroke, could it be that his fiancée is going to withdraw from the marriage because of this? ”

"Is our helper a strong king...... Look at his writing and become so forceful, I feel that he can't pass the test. ”

Xue San ignored the slander of Xue Zha by the two, hugged his shoulders and said confidently: "The helper is definitely good, the helper is the hope of our whole village!"

It seemed that he felt that he was not confident enough in the gang leader, so he began to ask Zhao and Tang to take the gang to wave their fists and shout.

For a while, countless people from the Axe Gang in front of the county yamen shouted in unison: "The helper's mana has no edge, the helper's magical power is particularly great, the helper's body is croaking, and the helper is the hope of our whole village!"

Xue Zha wiped the sweat from his forehead, sat back on the chair, he turned his head and squeezed out an ugly smile at Xue San and the others outside the county office, he knew that the assessment was not as simple as he imagined.
