On the ninth day of April, it was the time for the young students in Kuaiji to take the Taoist examination. Zhang Yuan went to Kuaiji to visit Wang Binglin in a relaxed mood, but his disciples said that the eldest son had gone to serve as a bailiff. Zhang Yuan then remembered that Wang Binglin was a junior student of Kuaiji County School. Since Wang Binglin was not there

Of course, it was not easy for him to enter the house with the women and children of this family, so he left a greeting note and went back.

The next day, Wang Binglin came to Shanyin to visit Zhang Yuan and brought back two articles on Zhang Yuan's Taoist examinations. Naturally, Wang Yingzi wanted to read them.

For more than ten days after that, apart from reading and practicing calligraphy, Zhang Yuan drank tea with his elder brother Zhang Dai, Zhou Menong and others. The Taoist examinations in the eight counties of Shaoxing Prefecture were over.

As the papers were being reviewed, more than 2,600 children stayed in Fucheng waiting for news. There were so many of these children that they had nothing to do except wait for the case to be released. Many children with poor character wandered around in groups, taking advantage of the large number of people, in restaurants and teahouses.

After drinking and drinking tea, they did not pay the bill. Some broke into the houses of local prostitutes and stayed there without paying. The mountains were dark for a while, and the two cities of Kuaiji were smoky. On the morning of April 23, Zhang E came to the small building in the back garden to talk to Zhang Yuan.

"Jie Zi, look at the character of these people who read sages and wrote eight-legged essays. They are similar to bachelors. Yesterday, I met a group of boys who were freeloading in a restaurant. They also beat and scolded the restaurant clerk. I saw

Knowing how not to be angry, he ordered Nengzhu and Feng Hu to beat up the group of Tongsheng. Those idiots were still calling them Tongsheng, but I said those who were beaten were Tongsheng."

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "There are no black sheep. There are children who do evil things, and there are children like me who are noble and noble. Don't generalize."

The two of them were leaning on the railing of the building and looking at the water of the Touji River in front of them. They saw a slender and beautiful maid coming from the west side of Zhang. She walked across the stone arch bridge and came towards the small building. Zhang E said "ha"

He said: "This is Lianxia. Does Jiezi still remember his treasure?"

Lian Xia came here to deliver a letter to Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan's father, Zhang Ruiyang, sent it back from Prince Zhou's Mansion in Kaifeng via post. When Zhang Yuan opened the letter, his father, Zhang Ruiyang, said in the letter that Prince Zhou had not returned to Kaifeng yet.

Because King Fu conquered Luoyang in March, the emperor ordered Prince Zhou to escort King Fu to Luoyang, so King Zhou would not be able to return to Kaifeng until the end of May. If Zhang Ruiyang wanted to resign and return to Shanyin, it would take at least one day after autumn.

I was very sad, but I learned from my father's letter that King Fu finally left Beijing and became a vassal state. The court officials once again defeated the emperor's will. Eunuch Zhong must also know this.

"Master, Master, disaster has occurred. A group of people came with wooden sticks in their hands and beat our bamboo fence gate to pieces."

Big Stone wiped his sweat and ran quickly to report to Zhang Yuan.
