Chapter 092: The Township Exam

Looking at Xiong Tao who was kneeling in front of him on one knee.

Let’s look at Xiong Ping, who was full of hope on the bed.

Receive or not?

Is this a problem? Of course I will accept it.

I had an ideal at the beginning, to recruit a group of powerful subordinates, some people bully themselves, they want to bully others, and they want to bully others. Now there are two characters who are obviously powerful thugs who are willing to participate in their own interests, so there is no reason not to accept them.

"If you brothers are willing to serve me, I will naturally accept it. If you follow me in the future, you will never treat you badly. When you encounter a strong man in the wild, I will turn around and ask someone. It will always be solved and you cannot hide for the rest of your life."

"When I find out clearly, I will take you to the yamen in person and explain the matter clearly before I can feel at ease. Also, I have an explanation for the dead family of three."

Xiong Tao and Xiongping thanked repeatedly. This matter has always been a big stone that has been weighing on their brothers' hearts. They knew that concealment was not a good way, but they were quite concerned about it and dared not report to the official. Now that Qin Guan promised to solve the problem, the two brothers were naturally grateful.

Qin Guan remembered something again and asked, "Last time Xiong Tao said, your master is Zhou Tong, can you tell me about your master's situation?"

When asked about this, Qin Guan was half out of curiosity, and his other half wanted to verify his thoughts.

Is this plane related or similar to its own space-time plane?

In history, there was a famous martial arts master named Zhou Tong in the Song Dynasty. He came from Shaolin and met Bao Zheng. He entered the military camp as an officer. Later, he served as a teacher at the Imperial Boxing Gym in the capital. His disciples were all very famous, including Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, Wu Song, Yue Fei......

The two brothers of the Xiong family said that their master was also called Zhou Tong, which aroused Qin Guan's curiosity.

I heard Xiong Tao say, "My brothers were born in a village in Qingzhou. I met my master when I was fourteen years old. At that time, my brother was only eleven years old. My master was in his sixties that year.

"The master moved from a foreign country and settled in our village. Our village is very respectful to my master. My master also said that he was in the army before, but the master never explained his previous experience in detail."

"When the master saw our brothers, he said that he originally didn't want to accept disciples anymore, but seeing that our brothers' bodies were particularly suitable for martial arts. It would be a pity to be just a farmer, so he accepted us two brothers as disciples, taught us martial arts skills for fighting, as well as riding horses and growing weapons, and even some knowledge of marching and fighting."

"Just two years ago, our master went there. Before his death, the master told us that with our ability, we can go out and make some achievements, but we didn't expect that, we did not succeed in anything for more than a year and we met a strong man halfway through. If we hadn't met the young master, my brother's life would have been explained in Hangzhou."

Is Zhou Tong dead?

Qin Guan was a little sorry, and the old man's experience was very different from the martial arts master he knew, maybe it was not the same person.

Qin Guan left 10 yuan of money for their brothers to spend, and left some anti-inflammatory drugs.

Although Xiong Ping lowered his fever, he still needed to take medicine. Qin Guan left behind the medicine for three days and ordered: "Two of these medicines each time, three times a day, and it is estimated that it will be almost done in three days. If there is anything during the period, go to Qin's mansion to find me at any time."

"When Xiong Ping can move more, he will move out of this inn and stay in another courtyard. I will ask Erbao to arrange it for you."

After making arrangements, Qin Guan went to the other courtyard to continue reading.

By the next day, the whole family got up early, Qin Guan and Qin Wei were dressed neatly. Today is a big day because today is the day when the provincial examination list was opened.

The autumn is clear and the old osmanthus tree in the yard is blooming in clusters of small flowers, scattering fragrance, and the fragrance spreads for ten miles.

The servants of the Qin Mansion got up early in the morning to clean the courtyard, cleaned the inside and out, wiped the railings and columns carefully, and splashed them with clear water on the ground. The servants also changed into brand new clothes. The son Xin Laosan of the door changed into a clean set of clothes today, washed his hair neatly, and specially tied a bun with a red-head rope. He stood on the street outside the door, with his head on his back and looked away.

Qin Wei and Qin Guan went to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors, then went to worship their grandmother, and then waited in the hall. Qin Guan saw Mrs. Qin looking up at the door from time to time, which made him feel a little nervous.

There were more than 3,000 people participating in the provincial examination this time, most of whom were still living in inns. Early in the morning, these scholars all got up and couldn't stay in the room, so they gathered in the first-floor restaurant, gathered around the table, chatting and waiting for the results.

The Liu family in Hangzhou is similar to the Qin family, and the entire Liu Mansion was cleaned up. Liu Su would wake up in the morning and go to the ancestral hall to burn incense and kowtow to his ancestors, begging for blessing him to be the juren.

When Liu Su came to the main hall, he saw many relatives and neighbors coming. When Liu Su came in, people were saying pleasant words.

"Young Master Liu will definitely be in high school this time, and maybe you can get a Jie Yuan."

"Chunyuan's homework is first-class, and this time it will definitely be high school."

"I'll ask for a glass of water and wine later."

The atmosphere in the hall was lively and everyone was very lively. Liu Su was usually famous and had a great chance of passing the exam this time, so these people came over in advance and prepared to wait for the good news together.

The opening of the provincial examination is different from the college examination. The yamen runners first take the red news to the candidates’ residence and inn to report the good news, and then post the list outside the college entrance examination.

This is done for a stronger sense of glory and a stronger scientific examination in people's minds. The ancients also knew how to make shows.

A servant ran into the street. When he saw Xin Lao San from afar, he shouted: "Uncle San, the servants who reported the good news have been dispatched."

After hearing this, the third son of Xin hurried into the door to report the news, "Madam, the eldest and second masters, the servants who reported the good news have begun to be dispatched."

Seeing his excited look, he thought someone had come to the Qin family to report the good news. It was shocking and made everyone even more nervous.

Qin Guan took a sip of tea and suppressed his nervous mood.

The provincial examination is different from the college examination. If you become a juren in the provincial examination, you will have the capital to become an official and you will become a real privileged class. In ancient times, the whole world was controlled by the privileged class, and the common people were really just fish.

After a while, the third son of Xin ran in again and reported: "Madam, the eldest and second young masters, the first name is revealed. He is Mr. Shen Yichen, the first talent in Hangzhou, known as the number one talent."

Qin Guan was slightly surprised: "Oh, Brother Xingwen actually got to know Yuan. I really want to congratulate him."

Qin Wei nodded, "Shen Yichen is really good at talent, and it's not surprising that he can get Jie Yuan."
