Chapter 149 Smash Zhang Family's Pot!

Zhang Chengxi was in a very good mood and could be said to be proud and satisfied.

After he took office, except for the unhappiness at the banquet on the first day, all the work was smooth sailing. The county magistrate Nie attached importance to him and his colleagues fully cooperated with him.

Especially Wu Fu, who stabbed him in the back before, is now completely isolated. In Xinhe County, Zhang Chengxi's limelight has been overwhelmed by Wu Fu.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zhang Chengxi is now in power, and this time the situation of the boy trial is completely under his control. In such a situation, he wants to mention who he wants to suppress, but it is just a thought, very relaxed.

This time, Lu Zheng was indeed not good at writing, and Zhang Chengxi had already decided in his heart. Since Lu Zheng had little hope, there was no need for Xinhe County to use resources on him this time.

Besides, Lu Zheng was originally a thorn in the old lady's eyes and a thorn in the flesh. When the boy tried this time, this kid would make no sense.

In this case, Zhang Chengxi called Lu Zheng over today, and his purpose was quite clear, which was to implement his will. The first was to strengthen his family's morale, and the second was to announce his authority to everyone.

"Brother Zheng, have you found the guarantor who ended this time?" Zhang Chengxi said with a serious expression. He raised his head slightly, lifted his airs, and held it up with great authority.

Lu Zheng nodded slightly and said, "The guarantor has been found, it was all Master Luo who helped me find it!"

Zhang Chengxi frowned and said, "Okay, you won't cry until you see the coffin, and you won't give up until the Yellow River. To be honest, you have a good reputation, but your test scores this time are not worthy of your reputation. This time, you are fair and just. The county master will not have any favoritism. Don't expect someone to be out of your way!"

Zhang Chengxi caught a topic and preached Lu Zheng. Then Tian Zepeng, Zhang Haoran and others, as well as their group of followers, followed suit and started to make fun.

For a moment, Lu Zheng became the target of everyone's attack. The people present today seemed to have been pre-rehearsed, and the movements were simply uniform.

Although Zhang Chengxi is certainly superior, he poured cold water on Lu Zheng as the county magistrate, and the rest of the Zhang family also collapsed with confidence. They had long been infected by Zhang Chengxi and thought that this boy trial was Zhang Chengxi who covered the sky!

Almost all of the people present, whether it was Tian Zepeng, Zhang Haoran, Shu Yuan and others, were hit by Lu Zheng. This time, after the boy tried it, they finally had the chance to step on Lu Zheng. How could they let go of such an opportunity?

In response to Lu Zheng's words, there is no good banquet, and no good meeting. How could Zhang Chengxi invite Lu Zheng to the banquet so kindly? The old lady of the Zhang family hated Lu Zheng for not dying early, so how could she be in the mood to talk to Lu Zheng?

They invited Lu Zheng over, and everyone knew his intentions, and Lu Zheng certainly understood it, so he was very calm!

But he was calm, and some people were not calm. The first person to jump out was Zheng Yun. Seeing Zhang Haoran attacking Lu Zheng in groups, he stood up and said:

"Tsk, tsk, I used to hear that the Zhang family was a family of poetry and books, and was an amazing wealthy family. Today I realized that it was a complete joke. I saw that the younger generations of the Zhang family were all clowns, vulgar and rude, ugly, and they were simply a shameless person!"

Zheng Yun's voice was very sharp and his speech was sarcastic. When he got angry, he stood up and jumped directly to the space in the middle of the banquet. He pointed at Zhang Haoran, Tian Zepeng and others and cursed:

"What are you? But there is no tiger in the mountains, and the monkey is just a king. What is Lu Zheng's identity? He is a top talent in Yangzhou. His excellent poetry works of three-year-old boys in Yangzhou can read. You clowns dare to speak rudely to Mr. Lu. It's really outrageous. Could it be that you bully me, Yangzhou, no scholars anymore?"

Zheng Yun is not tall and looks even more ugly. He has a buck-toothed rat whisker, but when he gets angry, he can be said to be full of fire, which only makes the Zhang family members beat bloody.

As soon as Zheng Yun opened the fire, the Zhang family invited more than one guest today. Zheng Yun was invited as a "typical" study student. There were seven or eight people in Xinhe County, and most of them had stories like Zheng Yun.

Zheng Yun had long abandoned literature and went to business. This time he was inspired to study again and vowed to make a breakthrough in the scientific examination. Some of the others were like Zheng Yun. Because they were old, they didn't want to take the scientific examination because the Zhang family received a heavy reward.

Some people were also discouraged and swear to never take the exam again due to physical reasons, but this time they were mobilized by all parties and made a comeback.

No matter what the situation is, these people are all old people. Zhang Chengxi called them here today, originally trying to show off his political achievements and let everyone see how many changes Zhang Chengxi brought to Xinhe County after he took office.

But now, he never dreamed that all these people would explode. Everyone stood on Lu Zheng's side, looking at them all, old people who have been struggling in the world for many years, Zhang Haoran and Tian Zepeng, who are not well-informed in the world, are they their opponents?

Their scolding only made Zhang Haoran, Tian Zepeng and others curse him so hard that they were all angry. You must know that this is the territory of the Zhang family, and the old lady of the Zhang family is still here.

The young ones they scolded were actually slapping the old man in the face. The old lady was so angry that she trembled all over. Originally, she wanted to show her grandchildren a mighty look at this banquet today. Now not only are the grandchildren's majesty destroyed, but she also lost all the face of the Zhang family.

Zheng Yun and other guys were simply eating the Zhang family’s food and smashing the Zhang family’s pot!

Zhang Chengxi was also stupid. He wanted to break his mind and didn't understand why this happened. He subconsciously turned his eyes to Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng's expression was very calm, looking at his ears and noses, looking at his heart, not squinting his eyes, sitting upright, and turning a blind eye to what was around him.

"What a hell! How could Lu Zheng have a relationship with these people?" Zhang Chengxi wondered.

At the critical moment, Cui Da came up and said, "Second Master, don't forget that Zheng Yun and his group of people were not from Guanshan Academy. Brother Zheng was isolated, and their lips were lost and their teeth were cold, so naturally they felt dissatisfied!"

After all, Cui Da has been through the world for a long time and has reached the point of the point at the forefront. In fact, things are not just that simple!

The reason why old fried dough sticks like Zheng Yun have become "typical" recently is because of hype. Through hype, they have gained fame and tasted the sweetness.

For those old men, it is no longer realistic to take the imperial examination road and enter the official career, so they can go as far as they can, and becoming famous is the top priority.

Lu Zheng has a very famous name. Today's occasion is in the Zhang family. Lu Zheng is an outsider in the Zhang family. He is under the throne and has a low status. Zhang Haoran, Tian Zepeng and others can criticize Lu Zheng at the instigation of Zhang Chengxi and Zhang's mother, and even stomp on Lu Zheng a few times.

In this way, they were motivated to participate in the Boy Examination. Then Zhang Chengxi's grades suppressed Lu Zheng in the scientific examination, making Lu Zheng unable to even pass the county examination, thus causing Lu Zheng to be completely ruined.

Zhang Chengxi's methods are not very clever. The key is to say that for old-fashioned guys like Zheng Yun and others, if they follow the Zhang family, what benefits can they get? The benefits are all for the younger generation of the Zhang family, and they are nothing they can do.

It is different to stand up like Zheng Yun now. They sang against the Zhang family because they were not afraid of power. Moreover, through this method, all talented men in Yangzhou knew that Zheng Yun and Lu Zheng had a very close relationship. Isn’t this just a gild on his face?

Nowadays, people are not punished for themselves. If the Zhang family wants to step on Lu Zheng’s shoulders, it is difficult to guarantee that no one wants to become famous by stepping on Zhang Jiabo, showing off and gaining fame.

Unfortunately, the Zhang family encountered such a bad luck today, and Zhang Chengxi was really in tears.

In fact, there is another important reason why Cui Da has not expressed it, that is, Zheng Yun was able to become a current student from the account room, which was clearly planned by Lu Zheng.

What is the relationship between Lu Zheng and Fuyun Restaurant? People like Zheng Yun can become typical benchmarks for studying in Xinhe County, and they are all packaged by Lu Zheng himself.

Under such circumstances, can Zheng Yun tolerate Lu Zheng being bullied by the Zhang family at critical moments?

Zhang Chengxi claimed to control the entire situation, but in fact everything was an illusion. All Nie Yonghe needed was the resources and money of the Zhang family. On the surface, Zhang Chengxi controlled everything and was glorious.

In fact, the entire Xinhe County policy is based on the "Thirteen Strategies", which was written by Lu Zheng. Naturally, the boys in Xinhe County were preparing for the exam. Lu Zheng was the person behind the strategy. Zhang Chengxi was just a puppet who spent a lot of money and then implemented it according to the requirements.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Chengxi and the Zhang family actually wanted to let the Zhang family disciples step on Lu Zheng's shoulder to gain a position. This was a huge joke in itself. Fortunately, Nie Yong and Liang Xu and others who knew the inside story did not come today, otherwise they would have to laugh on the spot.

The scene was out of control, and the younger generations of the Zhang family were all blushed. A simulated county trial had greatly increased their confidence, and they thought they were sure to win everything. Only after being slapped in the face like this did they realize the fullness of their ideals and the skinnyness of reality.

Didn’t Zhang Chengxi keep saying that everything is under his control? Now he can’t even control a few students who are about to end. These damn people eat Zhang’s food, drink Zhang’s wine, slap the Zhang’s face in front and smash the Zhang’s pot in front of him. This is simply unreasonable.

The banquet ended in chaos. Lu Zheng had enough wine and had a very comfortable meal. Before leaving, Cui Da sent him off.

Lu Zheng slowly walked over Tian Zepeng and others. Tian Zepeng suddenly shouted at him: "Lu Zheng, this time the boy will try you and me to compete!"
