Chapter 262 Inquiry
The table was lowered, Lu Boya secretly poked Liu Zhiyuan's arm, pursed his mouth, and signaled with his eyes.

what's the situation?
How do you feel that Jiaoyu is flattering Qi Guang?

Delusion?
Liu Zhiyuan ignored him, and bowed his head in thought alone.

Before coming here, he thought it was just an ordinary teacher-student entertainment, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.

County magistrate Yan and Qi Guang have a secret!
However, this kind of thing, why bring the two of them?

Can't figure it out...

Mu Yao turned a blind eye to the vague scrutiny of everyone, "The elders are respected, just teach me to choose the one I like."

"Then I want the most expensive one!"

County magistrate Yan's tone was bold.

To entertain these disciples, the best must be chosen.

"Okay," Lu Boya couldn't wait to pull Liu Zhiyuan out, "The two of us will ask now."

After the two left, Mr. Yan's smile became warmer, "Qi Guang, this meal should have been eaten long ago, but you have been busy recently, you shouldn't blame it, right?"

"Of course not, the students know that you are very busy recently."

"That's right," Yan Gongqi wanted to curse, "The former county magistrate went crazy, he was fine, he patted his butt and left, but I have to clean up the mess, the landlords and gentry need to be appeased, and the taxes and rations must be paid. The higher ups have to deal with it..."

After complaining for a long time, I finally stopped, "After all, outsiders are unreliable, they are not in Pingyang, and they do things unscrupulously!"

If he changed his position, he would not dare to do so.

Afraid of being stabbed to death in the spine.

Then again, the death of the former county magistrate happened to pave the way for him.

After suffering enough from the outsiders, the locals are more in line with the people's hearts.

After Yan County Magistrate complained, his entire face was wrinkled with laughter.

Mu Yao listened quietly and didn't interrupt.

After he finished speaking, he smiled and said, "It seems that your days have been very fulfilling recently!"

"Learning civil and martial arts is a gift from the emperor's family." County magistrate Yan is indeed very spirited. "I don't have much ability. One county is enough to display my ambitions. In my lifetime, I can do two practical things for my father and fellow villagers."

As he spoke, he looked dazed.

I still can't believe that such a good thing will actually happen to me.

"That's a good idea."

Mu Yao smiled slightly, but still didn't say much.

"Qi Guang." Without probing Mu Yao's attitude, County Magistrate Yan simply pointed out, "You managed to get me the position of magistrate, so I can't repay you too much, but what do you want me to do?"

"Speaking of which, I really have something to trouble you."

"What is it? I will do what I can do."

Yan Gongqi didn't want to owe favors, but he also knew that he couldn't afford it for the time being, so he could only pay a little bit.

"Before that, I would like to ask a question. The descendants of Zao officials cannot take the imperial examination. Is it based on household registration, or is it only based on blood?"

"Generally speaking, the household registration at the time of entry shall prevail. However, in the end, we must be more restrained, and the two generations of the direct line should not take the imperial examination."

"Only two generations?"

"Yes," County Magistrate Yan explained, "Even a small official may actually be promoted to an official, but the hope is extremely slim, so the court will not leave any room for survival in this regard, as long as you don't do it too blatantly.

Why, you want to arrange someone to be a soap official? "

"Yes, there is a younger brother who has not been working for a living. The yamen servant has a bad reputation, but his life is easy."

"Are five positions enough?"

"Three is enough, there are not so many people."

"Sure, you can bring someone to the county government office tomorrow, is there anything else?"

Mu Yao shook his head, "Only these."

When the magistrate Yan was teaching, he was upright and rational, and he was very clear-headed when he became an official, and he didn't fly wild once he gained power.

When dealing with this kind of person, Mu Yao prefers to exchange sincerity for sincerity.

He didn't know the future, but at this moment, he didn't want to do anything to spoil the fun.

Yan Gongqi was surprised.

He thought that Mu Yaofei had put in so much effort to push himself up, that he would have something to ask for.

Didn't expect it to be such a simple thing.

For a long time, I can only promise, "Don't worry, these three old men will definitely take care of you!"

"Please take care!"

After talking about the business, Mu Yao went down to find someone.

first floor.

Liu Zhiyuan and Lu Boya were bored.

"Brother Zhiyuan, have Qi Guang talked with the county magistrate? I'm a little hungry!"

If I had known it had been so long, it would be nice to take the opportunity to go home.

Instead of being like a fool, leaning against the window and blowing hot air, I dare not order a cup of tea.

"I don't know, why don't you ask?"

"No damage, why should I go to something that is obviously offending people?"

"Then quietly watch the scenery, don't make noise."

Liu Zhiyuan rubbed his eyebrows.

Still can't figure out what happened today.

"Don't you just mutter a few words in a low voice, you actually despise me, Brother Zhiyuan, say, have you changed your mind?"

So considerate before, but now...

Unable to bear Lu Boya's resentful tone, Liu Zhiyuan kicked him hard, "Can you be normal? If you want disgusting people, go back and find your siblings!"

What's the matter with acting like a baby to an old man like him?

Hearing this, Lu Boya became more and more depressed, looking straight at him, as if he was asking: Where is the conscience?
When Mu Yao came down, he saw their eyes met.

There is also some obsession.

Immediately, there was a pause, "Brother Zhiyuan, Brother Boya, have you ordered any wine?"

"Qi Guang, have you finished your business with the magistrate?"

"It's just an ordinary reminiscence, don't think too much."

"No wonder," Lu Boya couldn't help complaining, "There must be something wrong with you two!"

Under normal circumstances, whose wife would please the students?

Mu Yao: It's good to know some things, why bother to say them.

She gave him a dissatisfied look and changed the subject, "If you don't go up to eat, the food will be cold."

"Okay, I'll let Xiao Er serve the wine now."

After the three returned, Yan Gongqi was as patient and kind as ever.

Still caring about students, natural and smooth, and a little less deliberate.

Lu Boya not only wondered: Is it really because I think too much?
Could it be that the elders simply care about the younger generation?

After three rounds of drinking, he asked directly, "Qi Guang, are you and Jiaoyu hiding something from us?"

Liu Zhiyuan wanted to stop it.

However, Lu Boya only had time to put down his chopsticks, and it was too late to speak out.

Immediately, he bowed in embarrassment and apologized, "Bo Ya is drunk, so don't talk to me."

"There's nothing to hide," Mu Yao coughed softly, "I just want to know which college in Fucheng is suitable for us to study."

Like the two of them, Mu Yao also planned to study in an academy after Qiu Wei.

It's useless to ask the Liu family about the scholar's affairs. The county magistrate Yan is a juren, so he must know something about it.

He brought Liu Zhiyuan and Lu Boya over because he wanted them to listen to it too.

No matter what path you take, you cannot do without like-minded friends. If possible, Mu Yao hopes that the three of them can study in the same academy.

"The best academy in Fucheng is called Qingyun Academy. The head of the mountain is an official in the Imperial Academy. He is knowledgeable, noble and reserved, and is also praised by scholars."

Liu Zhiyuan immediately grasped the point, "Isn't the best the most suitable?"
