Chapter 418 Master and Apprentice in the County Exam
The jasper is as high as a tree, and there are thousands of green silk ribbons hanging down.
I don’t know who cut out the thin leaves. The spring breeze in February is like scissors.
Entering February, the temperature in the North finally rises, and standing in the sun will give people a warm and sunny feeling.
The disciple Li Er was Nuan Yangyang at this time. He watched a carriage drive out of Xingyun Village.
The carriage was not far from the gate when a voice suddenly came from inside: "Stop!"
The man driving the car said "Oh..." and stopped the red horse that had just started.
The young man following from the carriage walked to the window of the carriage and asked respectfully: "Master, what can I do?"
There was no sound from the carriage, but the curtains shook, revealing a small face carved in pink and jade.
I saw him looking back at both sides of the gate with a serious expression, and after a long time he said a longing word: "It won't be long before this couplet can be changed!"
After that, he lowered the curtains and ordered: "Let's go!"
"Okay, Master." The coachman shouted, shook the reins, and the red horse with the big red flower started slowly started again.
The boy next to the car stepped up to follow, but he was still confused and said to himself: "Does the young master dislike the couplet's wood board for being old or the gilded characters peeling off the paint?
He couldn't help but look back again.
By chance, a section of green gauze clothes behind the gate appeared in his eyes, and then disappeared again.
The boy was stunned and immediately understood, this is Madam?
He frowned and thought to himself, who did the young master learn this from? He had grown up and was no longer the little chicken protected by the wings of an old hen. He didn't need his parents to take the exam, so he just refused.
The owner and his wife.
Thinking of this, the young man sighed secretly, Young Master, you have only been weaned for a few years!
The wheels were rolling, and after half a day, Long Xiaoyun entered the local county town.
As soon as they entered the city gate, the boy and the coachman were shocked when two unknown figures got into the carriage.
Just when the boy was about to shout "robber", the young master's voice came from the carriage: "Nothing, just keep walking."
The coachman tremblingly turned to the boy and listened to his instructions. What should the boy do? The young master had already told him! So he nodded with a grimace.
"Drive" was heard twice, and the carriage continued to move forward.
In the car, Li Jiang lay half-lying on the cushions comfortably and asked lazily: "Disciple, how is your review going? Are you sure?"
Long Xiaoyun stretched out his right hand, palm upward, and then turned it over.
Ah Fei didn't know why, so he asked: "What do you mean?"
Long Xiaoyun raised his head proudly and refused to answer.
"Pfft!" Li Jiangle laughed and explained to A Fei: "Brother Shen, this guy is bragging. He means that passing the county examination is a piece of cake!"
Ah Fei understood, and nodded seriously, saying, "Xiao Yun'er is smart, I believe in him."
"Hey hey hey hey" Long Xiaoyun couldn't hold back anymore and smiled like a weasel who had stolen a chicken.
"Don't be too happy too early. Can you get the county trial case?" Li Jiang poured cold water on me.
Long Xiaoyun's face fell, and he said bitterly: "Master, the leader of the case depends on his life!"
Li Jiang sat up and said in a solemn tone: "Disciple, there is no such thing as fate as a master. Remember, my destiny is up to me! Otherwise, you are not worthy of being my disciple."
"But, but..." Long Xiaoyun looked confused.
Li Jiang's expression softened and he said earnestly: "Of course, being a teacher does not encourage you to be enthusiastic and careless. You must know that the prerequisite for being able to control your own destiny is to be prepared! This preparation includes both internal and external aspects.
The inner part is your knowledge and your own ability. This is the foundation. Without the foundation, no matter how good the outer part is, it will be a castle in the air. When it comes to the outer part, well... my teacher has already done it for you. However, this
This is the last time I will help you, and it will be up to you from now on."
After speaking, Li Jiang took out a large pile of rolled-up papers from his arms and threw them to Long Xiaoyun.
Long Xiaoyun hadn't finished digesting the master's words, so he took it blankly and asked curiously: "What is this?"
Li Jiang leaned back lazily and said casually: "The resume of the county magistrate, as well as the records of what books he likes to read and what style of articles he likes."
"Wow, Master is awesome!" Long Xiaoyun cheered and hurriedly opened the paper.
Li Jiang raised the corner of his mouth and said reservedly: "Actually, it didn't take much effort. I just made a few trips to the county government office with your Uncle Fei."
Long Xiaoyun stared at the scroll intently, nodded casually and said "hmm" twice, and said perfunctorily: "Oh, Master and Uncle Fei have worked hard..."
There was no tremor in his body as he had imagined, nor was he crying in agony as he had imagined. Li Jiang couldn't help but froze, and turned to look at A Fei in astonishment.
A Fei's face was turned towards the window as if he was unaware of it, but Li Jiang's sharp eyes immediately saw that the corners of his mouth seemed to be curved.
Hey..., the two of them are virgins who don't know how to be romantic.
Li Jiang stopped, closed his eyes and began to fall asleep.
He really hadn't slept well in the past few days. He hid here and there during the day to prevent the Sun family from causing trouble. Although Sun Tuozi thought he was drunk, his subordinates knew that he was probably into something, so they searched for Li Jiang all over the world.
To get the real news, the nearest county town is the top priority. Someone has been secretly searching for the two of them.
In the evening, Li Jiang and Ah Fei would visit the county government office at night, searching for the county magistrate's articles, essays and his hobbies. Ah Fei was illiterate and just watched outside, but it was a hard time for Li Jiang who was struggling inside.
In fact, it wouldn't have been that troublesome, as long as Li Jiang gave the county magistrate an order to "take Long Xiaoyun as the head of the case." However, Li Jiang was not such a dishonest person, and he had a sacred attitude towards knowledge.
It's not uncommon to use this deceitful method.
Inquiring for information is tiring, but it is also the right way. Don't think that other scholars will not inquire about information? There are even more filthy ones. But most of them use some tricks hidden under the tenderness.
Long Xiaoyun's carriage drove directly into the inn that he had already contacted.
Li Jiang and A Fei were finally able to sleep soundly.
So they didn't dare to enter the inn before, so how dare they do it now?
There is only one reason, Long Xiaoyun is the candidate for the exam!
It is related to the country's recruitment of scholars. Will the Jianghu Gang be tempted by a bear's heart or be a leopard's courageous and dare to shake the country's foundation?
Even the Sun family wouldn’t dare!
Therefore, Long Xiaoyun's room is safe and no one will come to search it. At least not during the exam period, the government is watching!
Three days later, Long Xiaoyun stayed up until he had panda eyes. He kept reading the "secret book" given to him by Li Jiang.
The exam was going to start in two days. Seeing this, Li Jiang had no choice but to touch his sleeping point and let him sleep well all day.
One day later, early in the morning.
Long Xiaoyun stood outside the county government office with the examination basket in hand, and complained softly to Li Jiang beside him: "Master, how many secret books will it take for me to read in one day..."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Li Jiang rolled his eyes and said teasingly: "On weekdays, the cowhide blows loudly, but now it has turned into a soft-footed shrimp. What you lack now is not knowledge, but self-confidence. Stand up for me.
,Learn with me."
"What to study?"
Li Jiang clenched his fist and raised it in front of his head, shouting: "I, Long Xiaoyun, am the best! I must be the leader of this case!"
"Scream, there's still a posture." Li Jiang urged Long Xiaoyun.
Long Xiaoyun looked around like a thief, and when he saw that the other test subjects didn't notice this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, imitated Li Jiang's posture, and shouted in a low voice: "I, Long Xiaoyun, am the best! This case
The first one has to be me!"
"The momentum is not enough, please be louder and more passionate!"
