Early in the morning on May [-]st, before the sky was fully lit, a large group of people gathered in front of Ye Mansion's gate, chatting in low voices from time to time, and there were occasional sounds of objects moving.

The luggage that Ye Junshu needs to take back has been loaded. There are two wooden carts piled up tightly, and four carriages for carrying people.

Ye Junshan and Nan Chenghe had already learned how to ride a horse, so they naturally wouldn't want to stay in the small space of the carriage at their age.The half-grown boy was at the time when he couldn't be locked up.

Ye Junshu deliberately found a half-sized horse for them to ride.

Ye Junshu himself was the same, the journey was so long that he couldn't bear to sit alone in the carriage, so he also rode a horse, occasionally taking a rest in the carriage when he was tired.

The other children stayed in the carriage, because they were still young and didn't take up space, so Ye Junshu directly let them ride in the same carriage and play with their companions, so it wouldn't be so boring, and when they wanted to sleep, they would put them in the empty carriage.

The guard of honor given by the imperial court has arrived, majestic and majestic, looking particularly imposing.Ye Junshu greeted the team leader and exchanged a few pleasantries.

He is Zhaowu's deputy lieutenant under the command of the mighty army. His surname is Liao. In terms of official position, he is from the sixth rank, but in terms of official position, he is one level higher than himself.So Ye Junshu's attitude is very polite.

It is just because of the attitudes of the emperors of the past dynasties that under the same rank, civil servants have much higher power and status than generals. Although they are one rank behind, they are actually the same.

Lieutenant Liao was a very cheerful man, in his early thirties, he was respectful to Ye Junshu, and he was quite familiar with him.

After getting to know each other, Deputy Lieutenant Liao winked at him, "I heard from the generals that this year's Tanhualang is a drinker who drinks more than the generals, and he drank the generals and the others down, hehe! I have a chance to ask for advice."

He is the second son of General Liao, who also served in the army. His old father was taken back that night at the Qionglin Banquet, which surprised him.

You must know that his father is a wine barrel, and he came back drunk. At first Lieutenant Liao thought he was drunk with his colleagues, but later found out that the drunk generals , They were all drunk by Tanhualang!

This is surprising. They have lived for so many years, but this is the first time they have been put down by civil servants. They have been in the frontier fortress all year round. You can drink two altars casually.

As a result, they couldn't drink the civil officials who had always looked down upon them.

That's right, civil servants look down on military generals, thinking they are vulgar and barbaric, and military generals also look down on civil servants, thinking that they are weak like chickens, weaker than border brothers, and they are polite when they speak and shut.

In the end, he had a drink, and the existence of Ye Junshu broke the concept of the generals. Since then, General Liao was still not convinced when he recognized Ye Junshu, and he talked all day long about going to compete with Tanhualang again.Lieutenant Liao listened a lot, and became a little curious about Tanhualang, who was said to be handsome and talented.

It happened that Tanhualang applied for the guard of honor to return to his hometown. Lieutenant Liao was tired of staying in the capital, so he directly changed into his own team, ready to go out for a walk, and meet Tanhualang, who the generals talked about for a while.

When I met him today, he really didn't disappoint. He was tall and tall enough to compete with their military generals, but he wasn't powerful enough. However, he patted Ye Junshu on the shoulder, and his hands felt firm, and he knew he was a practitioner at the first touch. The son, just looks gentle on the outside, harmless on the surface.

This conclusion directly put Liao Lieutenant in a better mood, "Let's practice when we have time."

Ye Junshu said briskly, "Okay."

Hearing what Deputy Lieutenant Liao said, Ye Junshu thought to himself, no wonder there was something wrong with his guard of honor. The former Deputy Lieutenant led a team of his own soldiers to intercept the real guard of honor.

Generally speaking, guards of honor look majestic, but in reality they are just ostentatious, but this team is different, they are all killed from the battlefield, even if the bloody aura on their bodies has been suppressed, the aura is very majestic.

Ye Junshu would not care about this. In his opinion, this is better. With this team accompanying him, he feels more secure.

After everything was ready, Ye Junshu's team set off.

Shangjing also wants to keep people, but the population of their house is still too small, not many people can support the scene, except for Nan Ah, the other servants have just bought it, and they cannot be trusted in terms of loyalty, and they don’t understand them thoroughly Ye Junshu is worried about handing over the Ye Mansion here to them.

So, this time Nan Amo didn't go back with them, but stayed in Shangjing. He only took the young couple with him, one was looking at Brother, and the other was in charge of him and Xiaoshan.

They were originally born in poverty, even if they are now prosperous, Ye Junshu doesn't want to let the children under him get used to clothes to stretch out their hands to feed and open their mouths, they can do it themselves.

Walking to the city gate, the gate just opened wide, and Ye Junshu bumped into Yu Maolin's team, and everyone set off at the same time.

Ye Junshu looked at Yu Maolin's guard of honor, the number was much larger than his side, but it looked like it was just a show, he was very suspicious, can such a team travel fast?

Looking at them again, there are only twelve people in the guard of honor, but when they compare their momentum, they can see that their team is streamlined, and it seems that they can travel faster!

Yu Maolin read Ye Junshu's thoughts, the corners of his mouth twitched, and then seeing no one around, Yu Maolin whispered: "I will go back on my own at that time."

This is to leave the guard of honor and go alone!Ye Junshu was worried, "Is it safe?"

Yu Maolin nodded.

Ye Junshu thought about it again, yes, the Yu family has a great career, so there must be guards by his side, so he has nothing to worry about.

However, since we can meet Yu Maolin, what about Ah Yu?Didn't he say he left today too?

Ye Junshu looked around, but unfortunately, apart from these two teams, what he saw occasionally were only unfamiliar caravans and pedestrians.

Maybe Ah Yu was still behind, hadn't set off yet, or didn't follow the official path, so they missed it.

Ye Junshu was very sorry, he still wanted to go for a walk with Ah Yu, or even go for a jog, but unfortunately he could only think about it.

The two walked for a while together, but his guard of honor couldn't bear to walk slowly, it was so slow, it was more uncomfortable than killing them.

Seeing the flat and spacious official road, they couldn't help but want to run horses.

Even though they walked behind out of courtesy to the champion of honor at the beginning, they couldn't bear their temper and slowly ran to the front.

The guard who provoked the champion of honor could not help but go forward to complain, with a look of righteous indignation, "My lord, Lord Ye treats you so disrespectfully, he simply doesn't take you seriously, and he won't climb over your head in the future Domineering above!"

Yu Maolin's current official position is one level higher than Ye Junshu's, not to mention that the champion is always higher than Tanhua, his guard of honor runs to the front of the champion, and under normal circumstances, there will definitely be a gap between the two parties.

When the guard of honor stepped forward, under his obvious eyes, Ye Junshu consciously backed away a little: "..."

He heard it all, so speak ill of him in front of him, okay?

The guard was still chattering, as if he was furious at Yu Maolin's slight treatment.

Yu Maolin waved his hands nonchalantly, "It's okay, Mr. Ye is in a hurry, they walk faster, they are naturally ahead."

The implication is that if you walk slowly yourself, don't blame others for grabbing the way.

The guard still wanted to argue that this is how the guard of honor walks, walking slowly along the way, attracting the common people to watch around, majestic and majestic.

But Yu Maolin had already let him back down.

The person involved didn't care about it, so the guard had no choice but to back away aggrieved, and before leaving, he even gouged out Ye Junshu's eyes.

He managed to grab this errand just to make a good impression in front of the promising No. [-] scholar, so naturally he couldn't go against him.

Ye Junshu stepped forward with a suppressed smile, and Yu Maolin returned helpless eyes.

"Then I'll go first, you catch up early!" His team had disappeared, and Ye Junshu naturally wanted to catch up.

Yu Maolin waved his hand, "Go away."

"Drive!" Ye Junshu clamped his legs on the horse, whipped the horse, and soon disappeared.

Leaving Yu Maolin's team behind, Ye Junshu ran for a while and saw his own team.

Then he also heard the happy laughter of the children.

Ye Junshu caught up and saw that the children who were staying in the carriage had already run out.

It turned out that the children were curious about the horse races of the adults outside, and felt so majestic, so they wanted to sit on it, but Ye Junshan himself was still a half-grown boy, how could he dare to take his younger brother out for a walk, and the elder brother would not cut him when he saw it?

At the moment when he was in a dilemma, Lieutenant Liao just heard it, and he directly lifted Ye Junwei who was lying on the car window out of the window, put him in front, and said with a hearty smile, "Uncle will take you to play!"

When Brother Jing saw it, he couldn't help shouting, "I want it, I want it too!"

Deputy Lieutenant Liao asked the other guards to come forward, and each of them hugged each other. Even Brother Qin was carried out for a ride.

It's just that Brother Lu is too old, so in order to avoid suspicion, he didn't let him out.

Because they had children in their arms, they didn't run so fast, but they didn't walk slowly. They rode their horses and ran quickly from time to time, which made the children laugh very happily.

Seeing that they were playing so well, Ye Junshu didn't say anything, as long as the children were happy.

He rode his horse to the side of the carriage, and said to Brother Lu: "Brother Lu, do you want to come out for a walk too? Big Brother will take you?"

Lu Ge'er's eyes lit up, "Is it okay?" Seeing the brothers so happy, Lu Ge'er was also moved.

Ye Junshu smiled and said, "Of course, come."

So Lu Geer came out in a hurry, and with Ye Junshu's help, he sat in front of Ye Junshu. Lu Geer grabbed the reins tightly, with a rare childlike excitement on his face.

"Sit still, drive!" Ye Junshu joyfully led his younger brother on a horse race.

For a while, there were laughter and laughter along the way.

Lieutenant Liao's team got along well with Ye Junshu's temper. After the horse race, they quickly became one. The guards were very satisfied with Tanhualang's attitude of not putting on airs, and they liked these cute children of Baiyu even more.

The journey that lasted for more than ten days was not boring. When I was on the way, I ran horses at a very fast speed. When it was time for three meals, apart from passing through towns, a large group of people went to catch fish and hunt in the wilderness. Let's learn from each other, and it doesn't feel boring at all.

Ever since Lieutenant Liao and the others showed their hands, Ye Junshan and Nan Chenghe clung to them and asked them for advice.

Although Ye Junshu also knows a few tricks, but he mainly studies the imperial examinations, and usually only uses them for exercise, and doesn't have much time to teach them. Most of the time, Ye Junshan and Nan Chenghe compete with each other.

This time, Lieutenant Liao and the others personally pointed out, and there are so many people who can learn from each other, but the two of them were so happy that they almost lost their way.

Ye Junshu was very relieved, when they went back to Beijing, they should also attend classes at the Martial Arts Academy.

When Ye Junshu and the others arrived in Yongzhou, several days earlier than normal, they would have plenty of time.

Ye Junshu and the others went to Yongzhou to rest for a few days.

When Ye Junshu was in Yongzhou before, he rented Yu Maolin's house. Yu Maolin rushed back to Linfeng County by himself, probably not going through Yongzhou, but taking a shortcut back.

The owner's house was not there, and it was difficult for Ye Junshu to live in, so the group temporarily settled in the Hefu Inn.

This is where they settled when they came to Yongzhou at the beginning of the year. The shopkeeper of the Hefu Inn obviously still remembered him. He has been in Yongzhou for the past two years, and he can be regarded as a man of the hour.

The shopkeeper came out to greet him in person, and said with a respectful smile, "Master Ye, your arrival has made Handian flourish!"

"I haven't seen you for a long time. The shopkeeper, you are still in good spirits." Ye Junshu said with a smile. The shopkeeper of the Hefu Inn is a man in his fifties. When Ye Junshu came, he was only received by the second child, but now he is not what he used to be. There is a formal official position in the body.

Businessmen are most likely to see dishes off the plate, and people of any status will give what kind of entertainment, even if they are snobbish, but this is the norm.

This also made Ye Junshu deeply appreciate the benefits brought about by the promotion of status. In the past, the gentry who used to put on airs and look down on him were all respectful now. I have to say that this feeling is really cool.

No wonder scholars are crazy and want to climb up.

It's really ten years of cold window and no one asks, and once he becomes famous, the world knows it.

Ye Junshu had just entered Yongzhou, and before he officially settled down, the gentry and landlord who heard the news in time came to visit with invitation cards.

However, Ye Junshu declined all of them on the grounds that they needed to rest.

There is no reason to receive other people before visiting the teacher.

The Zhuo family also heard the news, and soon sent someone here, who was the chief steward of the Zhuo family.

As soon as Steward Zhuo saw Ye Junshu, he saluted excitedly: "Congratulations to Young Master Ye for being named on the gold list, high school Tanhua Lang!"

Ye Junshu hurriedly helped Butler Zhuo up, thanked him first, and then asked with concern: "How about Mrs. Zhuo and the other members of the Zhuo family?"

"Master Lao Ye is concerned, the old lady and the others are very good!"

Ye Junshu asked a few more words in detail, and Steward Zhuo also replied respectfully.

The relationship between him and the Zhuo family is unusual, butler Zhuo still calls him Young Master Ye as before, unlike other people who call him Master Ye, so it can be seen that the Zhuo family does not want to have a relationship with him.

"Fourth master is already waiting for you, Young Master Ye!" Zhuo Xianzhi, his husband, was the fourth master in Zhuo's house, and he kept calling fourth master in Zhuo's house.

Ye Junshu nodded and said, "Wait for a moment, the children and I will go there right away."

"Yes." Butler Zhuo's smile deepened.

The young couple he brought back also happened to have the surname Ye, named Ye Dayong, and his husband's surname was Chen, and Ye Junshu followed Nan Ahmo's name, Ye Chen's.

Ye Junshu asked them to separate out the presents they were going to take to Zhuo's house and put them away. The children had already taken a nap on the way, and they were still energetic at this time, so they prepared to take them there as well.

Ye Junshu and the others washed up a bit, then took the brave husband and boarded the carriage to Zhuo's house.

With the friendship between him and Mr. Ye, they will not be unfamiliar with each other, and the Zhuo family is very good at life, and they did not forget themselves or grow out of it because of the Zhuo family's kindness to the Ye family, but as before, Care for the children of the Ye family with the attitude of an elder.

This made Ye Junshu feel very comfortable, but luckily it hasn't changed.

Otherwise, Ye Junshu really couldn't bear to be flattered like Xiao Er, the shopkeeper of the Hefu Inn. He really treated the Zhuo family as his elders, so naturally he didn't want them to be polite to him.

Ye Junshu greeted Mrs. Zhuo a few words, left the child with him, and then went to the study with the teacher.

As soon as he entered the room, Zhuo Xianzhi couldn't help laughing, "As expected of my disciple, he was admitted to Tanhualang! It greatly improved his reputation as a teacher!" After Ye Junshu's good news came one after another, Zhuo Xianzhi , the mood is very carefree.

The threshold of his family was about to be trampled through, those who came to congratulate him, those who complimented him, those who tried to get him to accept another disciple, all kinds of ghosts and bulls came out.

Especially seeing that old guy Zhu Zhengyi vomit blood in his heart, with a smiling expression on his face, it made him so happy to drink a jar of wine.

Ye Junshu smiled and kowtowed formally, "Thank you, Teacher, for your kind cultivation."

Zhuo Xianzhi received this gift and warned: "You can achieve this achievement, more depends on yourself. I hope you can not forget your original intention, so that you can go further in the future."

"Yes."

Ye Junshu himself is smart, Zhuo Xianzhi has never seen such a firm hearted person, who looks gentle on the surface, but in fact, once a decision is made, he will go all the way to the end, so stubborn that nine cows can't pull back.Quite a posture of immortality.It seems a bit extreme, but it is very rational, knowing what to do and what not to do, and the positioning is very clear.

It's a good thing to use this kind of temperament on the right path, but it's a bad thing if one day you think about it in a wrong way.From Zhuo Xianzhi's point of view, Ye Junshu's temperament has not changed, but it has been buried deeper. It seems that he has grown a lot during his stay in Beijing.

Zhuo Xianzhi looked at his disciple for a long time, then suddenly asked: "Zizhou, what are your arrangements for your marriage?"

Ye Junshu is an assertive person, he doesn't like others to make major decisions for his life, and he is used to taking control of it in his own hands, Zhuo Xianzhi has always let it go, but now he suddenly feels that his disciple, it's time to resolve the major issues in life.

Zhuo Xianzhi was also fortunate that his disciple was reasonable, otherwise, sooner or later he would become a stubborn and tough old man.

If Ye Junshu knew what his teacher was thinking, how would he feel? He is a combination of ancient and modern with advanced modern memory, and he is regarded as old-fashioned by a pure ancient...

When Ye Junshu heard Zhuo Xianzhi's question, his attitude was gentle, but his tone was firm: "But someone whispered in the teacher's ear? Teacher, you can just refuse, students don't consider forming a bond with someone they don't like."

Zhuo Xianzhi raised his eyebrows: "I haven't touched it before, and you know you don't like it?"

"Of course, because I already have someone I like."

"Oh?" Zhuo Xianzhi asked enthusiastically, "But which son?" Zhuo Xianzhi really couldn't imagine what kind of brother could make him, a student, fall in love with him.

Ye Junshu didn't answer directly, "When the matter is settled, the students will tell the teacher. The students still count on you to preside over the marriage!"

"Then as a teacher, we'll wait and see." Zhuo Xianzhi didn't ask further questions, and no one could ask what Ye Junshu didn't want to say.

Then Zhuo Xianzhi asked again: "How many days are you going to stay in Yongzhou?" Zizhou is going back to his hometown, which is human nature, and he was not sure about the time of stay before, but now it should be clear.

"Seven days." It was tentatively scheduled to be three to five days, but since the traveling time has been reduced by so many days, Ye Junshu can stay for seven days.

Zhuo Xianzhi was immediately satisfied, "Since that's the case, you should rest at Zhuo's house tonight. Tomorrow, Zhuo's family will have a big banquet to welcome you. The day after tomorrow, they will hold a large-scale banquet and invite the famous noble families in Yongzhou to gather together."

Zhuo Xianzhi quickly made a decision.

Ye Junshu cupped his hands and said, "But it depends on the arrangement of the teacher."

When he first became an official, it was time to accumulate connections, so he naturally needed these contacts.

Just live in Zhuo's house?

Ye Junshu felt that he was dragging his family and the children were growing up, so it was inconvenient to live there. Moreover, even if a teacher spoke, some nephews and nephews of the Zhuo family's family members came to meet by chance.

They came in the name of visiting relatives, and it was impossible to turn them away. Ye Junshu didn't want to cause trouble, so he thought it would be better to live by himself.

Zhuo Xianzhi was naturally on the side of his students, and he couldn't get rid of the idea of ​​some members of the Zhuo family getting closer, so he just called a Zhuangzi to let them live out.

This made Ye Junshu think, why not buy a house here?The teacher didn't want to go to Beijing with him, and stayed here to continue to be his vice president. Ye Junshu would definitely come back here in the future. It would be inconvenient after all if he didn't have a house.

The emperor successively rewarded him with so much money, 50 taels of gold, converted into silver, that is 500 taels.Adding other rewards, it was a huge sum of money, and the money he had on hand. Ye Junshu was at a time when he had a lot of money. Anyway, buying a house was also an investment.

So he asked Dayong to go directly to the dental store to find Guanshi Mo. He still has some friendship with Guanshi Mo, and he would try his best to help him find it. If there is a suitable farm, he will also buy it.

Dayong reported Ye Junshu's name, and naturally he was treated with respect, and he agreed, not even accepting a deposit, and said that there would be news soon.

After Dayong came back and told the truth, Ye Junshu thought about it, and he would give the money back anyway, so he didn't care about it.

I don't know if it's because of his changed status. He just asked Dayong to ask questions, and he got a reply in the afternoon. It was because Guanshi Mo came to the door in person.

Ye Junshu personally interviewed them, and he brought a lot of news. The farm house and shops are all there, and it is in a good location, and the price is a bit cheap as far as he knows.This had to make him think a lot. Could it be that as soon as the news that he wanted to buy a house was spread, those businessmen who had nowhere to ask to see him would take the initiative to sell it?

Manager Mo repeatedly assured that there was no problem with these fields and houses. Ye Junshu still didn't agree to buy them all on the spot, but said that he would think about it and give an answer the next day, trying to keep it for him first.

Then he took these sold houses and shops to show Zhuo Xianzhi.

The Zhuo family has been standing in Yongzhou for many years, so the news is naturally well-informed. After reading the information, he pondered for a moment, and then asked Ye Junshu to buy some at his discretion, without any worries.

The teacher would never harm him, so Ye Junshu felt relieved.

It's just that he doesn't stay in Yongzhou often, and many things are inconvenient to deal with in time, so he only bought a house and three shops.

After the house was provided for their family to live in when they came to Yongzhou, the shop was rented out to collect rent, and the others were not bought.

After spending seven days in Yongzhou and attending several gatherings, his mission in Yongzhou was considered complete, so he continued on his way back home.

While Ye Junshu was on his way home, the news of his title on the gold list had been sent down to his hometown layer by layer through the imperial court's unique transmission channel.

In Fengcheng County at this time, the county magistrate was working in the county government office as usual. Although there were no major issues in the small county town, usually there were some trivial matters, but he had always been diligent and went to the county government office every day.

Since the previous county magistrate was dismissed and held accountable, Fengcheng County, which was once panic-stricken, has returned to normal. The current county magistrate has put in a lot of effort to calm people's hearts. It is also compensation for young men from ten miles and eight villages to come to the county to serve as government servants. One of the means.

Most of the people in the village are simple and honest, and the young people selected by each village are honest people, and their brains are still very clever. If the current county magistrate wants to do bad things again and help the evildoers, at least these yamen servants from the village will be the first to refuse. .

If it is a county magistrate who is generally a bit arrogant, I am afraid that he will feel aggrieved long ago, but the purpose of magistrate Jiang's visit here is to provide for the elderly, so apart from going to the yamen to handle some chores, most of the time is spent raising flowers and plants. Playing with the bird, the little life is comfortable.

Mr. Li San is right, this is indeed a good place to retire.

On this day, County Magistrate Jiang was sitting in the yamen, flipping through the county files as usual, and halfway through, he remembered his family's little oriole chattering non-stop at him yesterday, very affectionately, County Magistrate Jiang couldn't sit still. Anyway, he had already read this file several times, and it was not too late, so he wanted to go back and tease his little Huang.

Unexpectedly, just as he put down the file, before his butt moved out of his position, a small official ran in blah: "My lord, my lord!"

County Magistrate Jiang was taken aback and stared, "Be careful!"

The little official immediately stabilized his small body and looked serious.

"What's the matter?" County Magistrate Jiang adjusted his official uniforms, and said slowly, there was nothing to make a fuss about in this small county, and young people just like to make a fuss.

The little official approached and said: "My lord, there is an urgent message from Fuzhou, and the messenger is at the gate of the yamen!"

"What?!" County magistrate Jiang slapped the table immediately. The leisurely retirement life of the past few years made his originally thin and swollen body flexible, and he rushed out, "Why didn't you say it earlier!"

The little official followed and ran out, his voice extremely aggrieved, "What the little one was about to say..."

"Where is the master? Have you notified the master?"

"Someone has been sent to call."

When County Magistrate Jiang came to the gate of the yamen, the master was already there, wearing a special black messenger and standing there, with a tall and handsome black horse beside him.

County magistrate Jiang hurried over, "Your Excellency, you have come from a long distance, thank you for your hard work! Please come in and rest for a while."

The messenger cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Mr. Jiang, you're being polite. This subordinate has to go back to recover, so I won't stay here soon." As he spoke, he handed the letter with the imperial seal to County Magistrate Jiang, and said goodbye , quickly mounted the horse, rode away.

County Magistrate Jiang was holding the letter, and he looked at the military adviser, feeling extremely puzzled. This small county town is so peaceful, there is nothing that needs an imperial order, and looking at the seal, it was passed down from the court.

"Isn't something going to happen?" Does he still want to retire in peace?

"Open it and you'll know." The military adviser didn't feel nervous at all. He felt that if something bad happened, he wouldn't be so calm. Maybe something good would happen!

So magistrate Jiang and the military division went in together and returned to his office.

County magistrate Jiang carefully opened it up. It was an official document announcing the scientific examination!Could it be that a student from Fengcheng County passed the imperial examination this year?

But this small county is so poor, and there are not many scholars, it makes no sense that he doesn't know who has gone to the capital to take the exam!

County magistrate Jiang suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard that someone in Yejia Village had passed the exam a few years ago. Could it be him?

County Magistrate Jiang was very impressed with this man, neither his personality nor his temperament seemed to come from this remote place.

He couldn't wait to open it to take a look, and suddenly his blood surged up, his hands trembled with excitement, and he almost couldn't catch his breath.

Seeing this, the military adviser's face changed, and he quickly relieved him, then Jiang county magistrate grabbed the military adviser's hand and said excitedly: "Master! We have a Tanhua Lang in Fengcheng County hahahaha!"

Although he has only been in Fengcheng County for a few years, this can be regarded as his political achievements hahahaha!Even though he has already entered the pension mode and is just waiting to retire, who wouldn't want to add another brilliant achievement to his official career!

Fengcheng County, a small place that has never had a Jinshi, now has a Jinshi, and he is still a first-class Tanhualang!What a credit!County magistrate Jiang can wake up with a smile in his dreams, it's like the world is falling apart!

As for this Tanhualang, whether he will overshadow the sky in Fengcheng County and make it difficult for him as a county magistrate, that is completely overthinking. Jiang County magistrate hopes that he can make more contributions in this barren place so that Fengcheng County will no longer be able to do so. so poor.

As for the others, that is something that the next county magistrate needs to worry about.

"Hurry up! Prepare the horse! Prepare the guard of honor! The county magistrate will go to Yejia Village to announce the good news in person!" County magistrate Jiang blushed and quickly issued an order.

"My subordinates will do it right away." The master also paid attention to it.At their age, they can't even feel jealousy, and they are in high school at a young age, and they are destined to reach the height they look up to.

Tanhualang, that is going directly to the Hanlin Academy for editing, and he is an official of the seventh rank!County magistrate Jiang is only a ninth-rank official, so he naturally has to do it himself. Besides, they have to beat Yejia Village along the way. Don't do bad things just because the village is an official, it will be a hindrance.

He liked this small county town quite a lot, and naturally he didn't want to see this peace broken.

The men and horses were ready very quickly. Several of the staff on duty in the yamen were also from Yejia Village. They were very happy and honored when they heard that a high-ranking official had appeared in their village. They wished they could run back to tell the villagers the good news. .

The weather in May is the most comfortable time. The weather has just warmed up, but it is not the hot season.

The crops in the fields are thriving and lush, and there are some small wild flowers dotted by the roadside, which makes me happy to see.

Smoke billows from every household, and the aroma of food seems to come out from the farmyard.The men who were busy in the fields walked home one after another, with farm tools on their shoulders and smiling.

This year is a good year, the spring rains came in time, and their crops are growing well, and they are happy to see it.

Peasants hope that their grain harvest will be more.

When it's meal time, every few homes can hear the sound of the family urging the children to come back for dinner, as well as the laughter of the children running and chasing, full of human fireworks.

Village head home.

A husband in his early thirties walked into the yard and shouted, "Father, it's time to eat!"

Not long after, a slow answer came from outside the door: "Here we are."

The gray-haired Mrs. Ye Liang came out of the kitchen, holding a large thick pot in his hand, which contained brightly colored Chinese cabbage and rare pieces of fat meat.

When he saw Ye Yurong coming in from the outside, he said angrily, "Go outside and look around all day, can you still see a flower?"

Ye Yurong immediately put on a straight face, "What do you know? You're messing around with those goofy guys outside all day long."

"Hey! I can't say enough about you?" Ye Liang raised her eyebrows and was about to continue talking when their eldest son Ye Junwen walked in from outside.

Seeing his old parents arguing directly in the yard, and looking at his husband with a helpless expression, Ye Junwen suddenly smiled and shouted, "Father, Eminem, is dinner ready? I'm hungry .”

"Okay, let's go into the house." When Ye Liang heard this, his eldest son was hungry, so he immediately stopped arguing and hurried into the house with a basin.

"Hey!" Ye Junwen responded, put the farm tools away in the corner of the yard, and then called his father into the house for dinner.

Ye Yurong snorted, then entered the room with his hands behind his back.

At the same table, they didn't continue to quarrel. Ye Junwen talked about the things in the field and other people's news. Ye Yurong listened to it, and dialed a few words from time to time, but didn't say anything else.

In the past two years, Ye Yurong was getting older and gradually lacking in energy, so many things in the village were slowly handed over to Ye Junwen, as if he was being trained as the next village head.

Ye Junwen also lived up to everyone's expectations. He has a calm temperament and is fair in dealing with things. Compared with his old father, he is also the boss of the Jun family, and he has always been convincing.

After eating, Ye Yurong continued to sit in the yard, smoking a pipe, and looking into the distance.

Ye Junwen came out and sat beside his old father.

"Father, are you worried about Zizhou?" Father has been out of his mind during this time, apart from Zizhou, Ye Junwen doesn't know who else he is worried about.

Ye Yurong knocked on his pipe, nodded and said: "According to the days, Boy Zhou should have passed the imperial examination. I don't know when I will receive a letter."

Last year, Zizhou was admitted to Juren, and a letter came. Their village celebrated enthusiastically. Even though Zizhou was not there, the ancestral hall was opened to worship the ancestors. Their Ye family had a Juren, and the ancestral grave was really full of smoke!

I took the exam in March this year, which is amazing. Regardless of whether I pass the exam or not, in Fengcheng County, I am already the best.

Whenever there is any major event on his side, Boy Zhou will write to him to inform him. Although he hasn't seen him for two or three years, he is not unfamiliar with Ye Yurong.

It's been a long time coming, for better or for worse.Delayed on the way, perhaps?

"Father, don't worry, Zizhou is so smart, he will definitely pass the exam." Ye Junwen has always felt that Zizhou is not a thing in the pool, and he will leave Yejia Village sooner or later. This is indeed the case now, and he has passed the exam. He has passed the Juren, and maybe he has also been admitted to the Jinshi and become a high-ranking official. He is extremely honored.

"I hope so." Without seeing the letter, his heart was still empty, and he couldn't fall asleep thinking about the result.

While the father and son were talking, they saw a group of half-grown children running fast, "Grandpa Rong! Grandpa Rong! There are a lot of people coming from the entrance of the village!"

Ye Yurong stood up abruptly, holding Ye Junwen's hand, his stern and serious face was clearly excited, "There's news from Boy Zhou!" As he said that, he was about to run to the entrance of the village.

Ye Junwen quickly stopped, "Father, slow down, don't fall."

Ye Yurong didn't let Ye Junwen help him, and walked towards the entrance of the village in high spirits, with the wind under his feet.

Before reaching the entrance of the village, I heard the sound of beating gongs and drums. Most people in the village heard the news. A large group of people, old and young, gathered at the entrance of the village, whispering and discussing.

But looking at the foolish smiles of those boys working as yamen servants in the village, they knew that it was not a bad thing, so everyone had nothing to worry about, and instead guessed what was going on.

When Ye Yurong arrived, everyone greeted him one after another.

Ye Junwen guessed something, and his heart beat faster and faster. Could it be that Zizhou has good news? !

The magistrate of Jiang County stood in the middle of the yamen servants beating gongs and drums with a red face. When he saw Ye Yurong, the head of Yejia Village, come out, he hurriedly went up to him with a smile on his face, his eyes narrowed into a line.

"Village Chief Ye, overjoyed! Overjoyed! Ye Juren from your village has passed the Jinshi examination!"

Because Ye Junshu's immediate family members are gone, and his family members are also not at home, County Magistrate Jiang reported directly at the village entrance.
