Better to live forever [Rebirth]

Different from the harsh winter in northern Xinjiang, Luojing's winter snow is lingering, attached to the evergreen shrubs or dead branches on the roof, which is small and affectionate.

Zhenbeihou Mansion, study room in the front yard.

The old Hou Ye opened the door and saw his little grandson who was supposed to study in Guozi, he couldn't help laughing: "Little Hou Ye, your master is too lazy to punish you for copying books, and just drove you back to the mansion?"

Zhu Dingbei raised his head from the book of war and gave him a supercilious look. If he was really driven back and lost his face, what would he be proud of? "Today is the school's poetry and book club, I didn't bother to listen to their whining and came back."

Old Hou Ye held a pot of hot wine in his hand, sat down and poured himself a cup, the hot wine passed through his intestines, sighed comfortably, and laughed straight after hearing the words: "Yes. You said Luo Jing and these men are really delicious If he is full, he can be tired of looking at a plum blossom for a long time, and the plum blossom doesn't hinder him, so he has to suffer this kind of punishment."

Zhu Dingbei put the book aside, leaned over and took a few deep breaths of the aroma of the spirits, his big black eyes staring at the steaming glass.Seeing his gluttonous appearance, Old Hou Ye poured him half a glass, and said with disgust: "You should practice your drinking capacity. The men of our old Zhu's family can't drink, and my old man would be ashamed to say it out. Little bastard , last time, it was only a few sips of wine, which was as weak as water, and it could make you unconscious, it's really embarrassing to me."

Seeing his grandson finish drinking indifferently, and then pushing the quilt towards him, the old Hou Ye glanced at the door, poured him the wine, and said, "Don't let your grandmother know, do you hear me?"

Zhu Dingbei gave him a contemptuous look.

After drinking half a cup, his tongue was so hot that it was numb. Zhu Dingbei stuck out his tongue and asked his grandfather, "Father has been back to Xianbei Mansion for a while. I don't know if those wounded soldiers have received pensions and returned to their original places."

Old Hou Ye laughed, "If your father can't do this well, I will break his leg sooner or later." Seeing that his grandson cared about the soldiers, Old Hou Ye was quite relieved.

The army is the foundation of the Zhu family, and he didn't want his grandson to lose the heart of the Zhu family after returning to Luojing.Then he said one more sentence: "If it were your great-great-grandfather, those wounded soldiers would not be able to go to the battlefield unless they lost their legs. At that time, if there was no money, no one would come. To be able to die like this is to be dragged for nothing. Most people end up shrouded in horse leather, and the bones don’t even dare to hope to return home.”

In the previous life, the old Hou Ye returned to Beijing alone to take care of the elderly. Zhu Dingbei had been in the army for more than [-] years unless he returned to Beijing to report on his duties.

Old Hou Ye stroked his prickly hair, drank a glass, and did not forget to pour it for his grandson. "Counting up from here, it was when your great-grandfather led the army. At that time, Emperor Chengxiao, the great-grandfather of today's sage, made a national policy. First, he encouraged widows to remarry. Second, he clearly stipulated that if there are four members in a family, there will be one. Males are exempted from attending private schools for five years."

Seeing that Zhu Dingbei's eyes sank, he already understood the mystery hidden in it, the old Hou Ye drank a few cups happily, and said happily: "These two are the most effective, and there are also some decrees issued later, the purpose of which is different from the public. I will think about it, but the loyal officials in the court understand the deep meaning. Emperor Chengxiao encouraged every household to add children. After more than [-] years, you can know that the population of Dajing is more than [-] times that of the original, and the young and strong men are the most. These People," the old master paused, "hey, it is these people who have made my Dajing's tens of thousands of heroes today, but it is also these people... who have died the most."

Zhu Dingbei turned the wine glass, and pondered: "During the Chengxiao period, Dajing's territory did not have the current territory. At that time, Dajing did not have enough financial resources to support these people. But it does not seem to be the case now."

These few national policies have not been banned, and the number of people in Dajing will only increase. Judging from the situation of Dajing's treasury in the past few decades, it is completely unable to support these people.However, although there have been small disturbances in recent years, they have not caused public anger and rebellion due to large-scale starvation. There must be reasons for this.

"Haha!" Old Hou Ye was amazed at his intelligence, couldn't help but smile triumphantly, poured him a full glass of wine, and explained: "Emperor Chengxiao is a very remarkable emperor, I still remember my grandpa and father How much to praise him. It's a pity that he passed away in his prime..." The old Hou Ye stopped talking and continued: "I only know that it came from Emperor Chengxiao's private treasury, but where does this private treasury come from? I don't know."

Zhu Dingbei knew that his grandfather didn't tell the truth. Those who marched and fought in their army knew best that this kind of windfall can only be accumulated by plunder.

But as for where to win, this is a mystery.And this private treasury is still used by the royal family, which shows its huge wealth.

The grandparent and grandson talked a lot about sex and talked for a long time. Zhu Dingbei laughed and drank but was unambiguous at all. In the end, he was concealed by the old Hou Ye and carried back to the yard.

As the end of the new year approaches, some of the teachers in Guozixue will go back to their hometowns to preside over the New Year's festival. Therefore, at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, Guozixue will be closed, and will not resume until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in the coming year.

Before that, it was naturally the end-of-year assessment of each grade of Guozixue.

Zhu Dingbei didn't take it seriously at first, but when he heard Qin Xi say that this assessment was related to whether he could advance to a university next year, he was struck by lightning.

He has never heard of such an important matter.

Seeing this, Qin Xi immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "An Ning and the others said that they won't stay in the Lecture Institute. I'm afraid I'll mess up this time, and I'll stay here alone."

Zhu Dingbei rolled his eyes, and ruthlessly said: "You can stay by yourself, junior brother."

Anyway, he never wanted to see Master Yan again!

After coughing, he moved closer to Jia Jiaming and whispered, "Eleventh, put the test papers as far forward as possible later, don't block them."

"Longevity..." Jia Jiaming frowned, Zhu Dingbei's intentions were too obvious, but he still had to remind: "There are two proctors for the advanced exam."

"You don't have to worry about this, Shanren has his own plan. Thank you Eleventh Brother for your help."

He chuckled, glanced at Qin Xi who had been paying attention to him, and whispered in his ear.If Zhu Dingbei hadn't had the foresight to cover his mouth, the kid would have yelled a long time ago. At this moment, Wuwuwu nodded, looking at Zhu Dingbei like a reborn parent.

After the two-hour assessment was over, the students went back to their homes and came back tomorrow.

Lou Anning came over and said, "Qin Xi, are you sure? Don't blame my buddies for being unjust, lectures in school are really boring. I don't want to listen to lectures with kids younger than me next year."

Qin Xi smiled confidently, "Young master, just wait, tomorrow is the time for me to show my power."

On the second day, Zhu Dingbei really wanted to strangle this idiot amidst the coach's slapping.

The head teacher of the lecture school and the two invigilators looked at the two students in front of them severely, one of them was famously stupid, and the other was even more naughty with bad deeds. Regardless of their identities, the head teacher sternly shouted: "Say, among you is Who cheated? Or are you two accomplices?"

Qin Xi blushed, his eyes glazed over.On the contrary, Zhu Dingbei was very calm. After reading the test papers of the two of them, the handwriting was not very eye-catching, and the answer papers were verbatim.No matter how many ways of Qin Xi's death he had played out in his mind, Zhu Dingbei just frowned, and then said: "We have not cheated, and we have a clear understanding. Please be aware of it, Master."

"Full of nonsense!" The head teacher smashed the teaching staff again, and shouted: "Don't you think I'm a three-year-old child? If you two are honest, I will let this matter go. The test papers of the two of you will be invalid, and you will retake it next year." Lecture. If not, please invite your elders to come over, Guozixue is not capable of teaching you, let them take you back to teach."

Qin Xi's legs softened a bit. No matter how naughty he was, he was still an honest child. He had a natural awe of the teacher. How could he bear this situation.

It's over, it's over.

Being brought back by grandpa this time is not something that can be settled by a public spanking.

Zhu Dingbei didn't blush, and said honestly: "Although the students are also very surprised. But there is no such thing as fraud, and I ask the master to show evidence." Before the teacher could speak, Zhu Dingbei said first: "Two masters , yesterday you were one behind the other, Huang Pin School is only a square inch, and everything is in the eyes of the two of you. Please tell me, you can see students turning back to plagiarize yesterday, or seeing Qin Xi poking around, acting suspiciously?"

The two invigilators looked at each other, but they didn't think it was strange.But the two test papers are clear, if it is not for cheating, how can it be possible to write two identical papers that are verbatim?

"Dare to ask Master, neither of us have ever spoken, nor seen, nor entrained. Even if we have the intention of cheating, how can we make things happen?"

The head teacher was also shocked by his righteous and dignified appearance. He had already asked the two invigilators about the situation, so he naturally knew about it, but the facts were right in front of his eyes.He stared at Zhu Dingbei for a while and found no flaws. Instead, Qin Xi blushed and lowered his head, not daring to look directly at him, so instead of pestering Zhu Xiaohou, he stared at Qin Xi and said, "Qin Xi, tell me. You have cheated." ? If you deceive the headmaster, the crime will be aggravated, do you understand?"

Qin Xi tensed up all over, raised his head and said loudly: "I didn't!"

Guilt and fear, but he still kept in mind Zhu Dingbei's confession.

The head teacher frowned, and snorted coldly: "According to what I know, you and Zhu Dingbei are usually average in your studies, but this time you are both in the second class of the test paper. What excuse do you have?"

Qin Xi panicked, but fortunately Zhu Dingbei said at this time: "Of course, this is due to the careful teaching of the masters. Masters are in charge, and the high-spirited and bright students who don't receive credit from the school admire them, but they can't be suspicious of the students if they don't have confidence in the school. Ability."

"Well said." The teacher gritted his teeth, stood up and said, "In that case, the two of you will take the test again at noon. This time I will let you two live in a room, to see if you can still have a good understanding."

"Teacher Master—" Zhu Dingbei was about to say more when he pushed open the door and entered.

"I have met the head teacher, two masters." The visitor handed over a piece of paper and ink, and said in a low voice: "This matter happened because of me. I guessed the questions for them and gave them the answers."

It was Ning Heng.

He was much taller than his peers, standing in front of the two of them completely blocked the line of sight, only his back could be seen.

The three masters looked at it, and saw that although the above topics were very broad, the exam questions this time did cover them.The three looked at each other, and the head teacher said: "Master Changxin, this does not meet—"

"Master, luck is also a kind of ability." Ning Heng interrupted him, "Furthermore, the student's assessment was prepared, and it is not considered cheating. This time it was just a coincidence, but it does not make the two of them judge Void."

"This... Then why didn't the two of them explain the reason just now?" The head teacher still insisted on his own opinion, and was not persuaded by Ning Heng.

"They just don't want to implicate me." Ning Heng looked at the three of them, "This matter is just a coincidence. There is no regulation in the Guozixue Disciple Regulations to indicate that this practice is wrong. Please handle it impartially."

The head teacher took a deep breath, but he had no choice but to give up.

Before leaving, he warned: "Opportunism is not the right way. It is not so easy to get through the examination for entering the school. You two can do it for yourself!"

After the people left, the Lou brothers and Jia Jiaming came in carefully.

"Eleven, close the door."

Zhu Dingbei said to Jia Jiaming who came in last.The latter didn't know why, but he did it anyway.

Zhu Dingbei looked at Qin Xi, who breathed a sigh of relief and said luckily, with gloomy eyes and a ferocious face: "Qin Xi, you idiot! Why don't you just copy my name?! You bastard, look at me I won’t beat you to death! If you still dare to run, hold him down!”

"Changsheng, I was wrong! Forgive me. Ouch, help me!"

"Let go of me, ouch, ouch, it hurts me to death. Brother Changsheng, please spare my life, I know I was wrong!"

Zhu Dingbei roared angrily: "It's too late! You fool who doesn't know anything, today I will open all your seven orifices, so as not to harm others again!"

"Oh, don't hit me... Lou Anning, why did you hit me, ouch, you bastard, you are taking advantage of others... ouch, Ah Heng, help me... Eleven help me..."

Beat me up.
