Xiangye

Chapter 166 Sudden
Xu Yu: "Erzhi, do you have something to say?"

Gao Wen said with a smile: "Master, if you want to do something, you have to wait for two days. Gao Linghan may not be a good match. After all, he has been a high-ranking official in Shaanxi for so many years, and his prestige is still there. With him, officials, big and small, and merchants We must also be afraid of three points. If he interferes, the mentor will have trouble in handling this case. Soon there will be Shaanxi Qiuwei, and Gao Linghan is the examiner. According to the system of our court, once entering the examination room, he cannot leave the examination room until the results are released. Counting it, it's been nearly half a month, why don't we wait for him to enter the Tribute Academy before taking action?"

Xu Yu clapped his palms and said with a smile: "Er Zhi, you are thoughtful, very good, very good, I will wait until Gao Linghan enters the Tribute Academy." He was very satisfied with this student, and thought: If there is a future, you might as well work hard Support, the old man is really short of people!
……

After deliberating the details of future actions at Xu Xuan's place, Gao Wen left.

Because he was still worried, the next day, Gao Wen went to the granary, sat in a tea shed more than a hundred steps away from the place and observed for a whole day, listened to a few books, and observed carefully.

Sure enough, the place was heavily guarded, and from time to time there were strong men with their chests and belly dangling around the door.At first glance, these people are all skilled in martial arts, and their waists are bulging, obviously they have hidden weapons.In addition, there are carriages going in and out of it, which look quite heavy, and it must be to deliver silver.

At this time, there are still two days before he enters the examination room of the township examination.That is to say, at Maoshi the day after tomorrow, he will enter the Gongyuan.

Thinking of the upcoming big exam that will determine his future destiny and future, Gao Wen felt excited for no reason.

Similarly, Shi Youyi also became nervous. She bought Kaolan to prepare a new set of the Four Treasures of the Study, and was worried that these new stationery would not be used by Gaowen.After thinking about it, I put it away again, and put the old pen, ink and inkstone into the kaolan.

Learning from the lessons learned during the college examination, Shi Youyi and Gao Wen's mother baked pancakes early.Fearing that Gao Wen would not be full, he mixed a lot of sugar and minced meat into the pancakes. Of course, chopped green onion was indispensable.As a result, the baked pancakes tasted weird.

In the midst of their busy schedule, Big Eagle and Little Eagle came over and asked Gao Wen to go out for a drink.

Daying has been released from prison by Mr. Xu using his power as an imperial envoy, saying that he is here to thank Gao Wen and to help him enter the provincial examination room.

In order to prepare for the exam, Gao Wen has already postponed the social gatherings among scholars, such as literary meetings.Seeing that the big eagle and the little eagle were so enthusiastic, they couldn't refuse, so they had to agree.

After entering a restaurant, Daying was not a very talkative person, he just toasted Gao Wen one by one with his head depressed.

After drinking for three rounds, Daying suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Gao Wen: "Mr. Gao, I can be safe this time, thanks to your mediation. Ordinarily, the old man should be grateful. However, Mr. is rich and honored. Even ordinary yellow and white things don't look good on people. I don't want to say thank you for the great kindness, so I can only keep this kindness in my heart, and I will repay it in the future."

Gao Wen helped him up, and said with a smile: "I have always admired Master Yun's martial arts. From Pingliang to Xi'an, the journey from Pingliang to Xi'an was entirely dependent on your maintenance. This is a good statement. Repaying favors is not what a gentleman does." , I just casually said a word to Mr. Xu, and I can't afford it."

Big Eagle sighed: "Yes, Mr. Gao has a great future, what can I use to repay you? Maybe, we can only see you in the future... Hey, Mr. Gao will be at the top of the temple in the future, it's ridiculous that I said What kind of Jianghu. Let’s see, Mr. Gao will definitely get an official position in the future, and his subordinates will definitely use people. The so-called one hero, three gangs. I will hand over the little eagle to you, and just work hard.”

This is already wanting Xiaoying to take refuge in him, Gao Wen was pleasantly surprised, people with high martial arts skills like Daying and Xiaoying are scarce resources!

However, Gao Wen still sensed something wrong from Daying's words, and couldn't help laughing: "Mr. Yun, Xiaoying, you are working hard as clerks in the Criminal Division, and you are so majestic, why do you want Brother Xiaoying to run away from me?" Come on. Also, Gao Wen is just a young scholar now, how can He De dare to order him? As for the official position, who can say clearly about the imperial examination!"

"Mr. Gao must have been very successful. I have already visited and understood that you are a great talent that I have rarely seen in Shaanxi Province for a hundred years." Daying said: "At the beginning, the old man was a reckless man, so the reason why he stayed in the criminal punishment department is not true. For reasons of humanity. Later, I thought, I’m already working in the Yamen anyway, so I don’t bother to move. To be honest, it really doesn’t matter to the old man whether he does this job or not.”

Speaking of this, he smiled faintly: "After staying in Shaanxi for so many years, I am also bored. I really miss my hometown in Cangzhou and want to go back and have a look. Besides, that Yuan is full of party members in the Criminal Prosecution Division. He I was arrested because of the old man. If the old man still stays in the yamen, don’t be subject to the filth of those villains in the future. A man should be free and unrestrained, isn’t he just looking for a place to live? Besides, where do I go? A yamen servant, hurry up. That's all right, I'll hand over the little eagle to you to finish this case. This kid has an impulsive personality, so it's good to be influenced by you. I'll go back to my hometown first, and I will go to the capital to meet you next year .”

In fact, he had another thought in his heart, that woman's body was buried outside Xi'an back then.Because she didn't know where her hometown was, she couldn't be buried.In his heart, Daying had already regarded that woman as his wife, and he was already old, so if he died in the future, he would naturally be buried in his hometown in Cangzhou.It's possible that we will be separated from her in the future, so he came up with the idea of ​​burying the girl in the Yun family's ancestral grave.

Yunying had already given up on the so-called errand of the Criminal Division, and immediately thought of returning home.The only thing I am worried about is my apprentice Xiaoying. After all, he is young, so it is time to find him a good home.

Gao Wen smiled wryly: "If Xiaoying wants to follow me, I will treat him as my own brother. However, next year I may not be able to enter the capital to catch up for the exam. After all, I have to get a job title first."

Daying: "The old man believes that Mr. Gao will definitely win, so I am leaving!"

After finishing speaking, he straightened his waist and left the restaurant.

At this moment, the sun is shining brightly, the big eagle is walking like a dragon, and the wild goose feathers are on his waist, and he has returned to the grandeur of 18 years ago.

"Master..." Little Eagle was the first to be separated from Big Eagle when he was so old, and cried out, tears filled his eyes.

Gao Wen patted him on the shoulder, wanting to comfort him but didn't know where to start.

After coming out of the restaurant, Gao Wen told Xiaoying to pack up his personal belongings and move to his yard to live for a while.He probably thought about Xiaoying's matter, and if it didn't work, let him and Shi Youyi's second brother take care of the property under his name first, and then recruit him to help him after he got an official position as a Jinshi.

After drinking so much wine just now, Gao Wen was already a little smoky. In addition to the hot weather, he was sweating profusely after walking for a while, so he was a little too lazy to move.

It was around two or three o'clock in the afternoon at this time, the street was whitened by the sun, and there were no people in sight, even the wild dogs that barked and scurried on the street during the day did not know where to hide.

Just as he was about to find a shady place to rest for a while, suddenly, a carriage passed by, and the handle bar called out the old horse pulling the cart, and asked in a hoarse voice, "The sun is so poisonous, sir, can you help me?" By car?"

This man has a burly figure, with a big brimmed hat made of wheat straw that keeps his head low, so he can't see his face clearly.

Gao Wen looked back at the carriage, and smiled: "It's such a hot day, and the cloth is still covered, are you going to burn people to death? You don't know how to do business as a driver."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Gao Wen was shocked.That's right, the driver is indeed a little weird. In the hot summer, both the sedan chair bearers and the drivers in Xi'an City have replaced them with cold cars and sedan chairs, which is how they can attract guests.The carriage in front of him is still tightly covered. Isn't this to confront the customer?

After such a day, it would be strange to be able to open.

Could it be... He took a step back and pulled out the slingshot from his pocket.

It was too late to say it, but suddenly, the whip in the driver's hand trembled suddenly, and it was drawn to the back of Gao Wen's right hand like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter.

With a "snap", severe pain struck, and the slingshot in Gao Wen's hand fell to the ground.

"What a thief!" Sure enough, it was the enemy, and Gao Wen didn't have time to think about the origin of the handlebars at this time.

With a loud roar, he advanced instead of retreating, leaped into the air, and made a chain-legged gesture, "Shua", and the shadow of his legs instantly kicked the handlebar under his chin.

The man who drove the carriage let out a muffled grunt, and fell from the carriage to the ground, a line of blood dragging long in the air.

Although he was whipped by the enemy, the slingshot was pulled to the ground.

But Gao Wen's series of moves were really quick and quick.The result of the battle is also very ideal, and the enemy loses their resistance in an instant.

He was surprised: How can my martial arts be so strong... Yes, it must be that the potential in the body is stimulated at a critical moment.

Satisfied in his heart, he was about to jump out of the car and capture the enemy alive for interrogation.

At this time, a big hand suddenly stretched out from the carriage, just holding Gao Wen's right ankle, and dragged it hard.

Gao Wenren was still in mid-air, he had no way out, and the enemy suddenly attacked again, how could he escape, he was immediately dragged into the carriage.

The sun was bright outside, but the interior of the car was pitch black, and it was impossible to see.

Such a tall man, but he was not afraid in his heart, and struck forward with both fists in a chain.

Unfortunately, at this moment, the enemy's hand suddenly loosened.

I thought that the space in the carriage was narrow, there was no room for maneuver, and the enemy had nowhere to hide, so these few punches would definitely hit the target.However, it was strange to say that the enemy seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. Gawain's fists hit the rear wall of the carriage as expected, and there was a roar like a storm.
