Da Cang night watchman

Chapter 174 Meeting the Fifth Young Master of the Zhang Family

The refugees looked at the city gate full of longing.

That is where the people of the capital live. The people of the capital, whether they are officials or civilians, merchants or slaves, are beyond what they can imagine. It is not a world with them.

They are just vagrants who are precarious. Today they are vagrants, and tomorrow they may be ghosts from other places. No one cares about their life or death, no one!
A few young men on horseback galloped away, and the refugee girl retreated quickly, but looked at him quietly from a distance.They hope to be favored by a certain son, so as to step into the other side of their dreams, but they are also worried that meeting someone who is not good will bring them unbearable suffering.

The tragedies of being spotted by a young man in the city, being teased, and finally sold to a brothel happen every day in the refugee circle, and the fate of all women is a bet.

Even though they knew that nine out of ten bets would lose, they still wanted to take a gamble, because it was their only hope to cross classes...

Lin Su was wearing a blue robe, and he came out of the city gate. Although he was wearing a scholar's attire, it was the most unassuming one. Normally, only the most down-and-out literati would choose such clothes. Lin Su Su's outfit was chosen by Luyi on purpose for him. She said that the young master's situation is special, so it's better not to make it public.

Lin Su also praised her for being thoughtful, but An Ye quietly let him know about Lv Yi's little plan. To add color, wear the most earthy ones. Although it cannot be guaranteed to be foolproof, it can always control the risk to a minimum.

Hearing this explanation, Lin Su was speechless.

Putting on this set of clothes that are so dusty, he left the Qufu.

Although the clothes were so dusty, they still had a different flavor on him.

Three miles away from the city, there was suddenly the sound of a carriage rolling behind him, as well as loud whiplash, and someone shouted at the top of their lungs, "Get out of the way!"

Lin Su's footsteps moved lightly, and when he reached the side of the road, a carriage passed by him. There were refugees on both sides of the road in front of him, and they also retreated one after another. A domestic slave on the carriage shouted: "Give way, I want to die..."

Snapped!A whip was whipped on the face of a refugee, and a bloodstain immediately appeared on the face of the refugee. The carriage rolled away, leaving behind several exclamations.

Lin Su raised his eyes and stared at the carriage, with a strange expression in his eyes.

A voice came into his ears: "It's the Zhang family's carriage. If there is no accident, this carriage is Zhang Tao, the fifth son of the Zhang family!"

Zhang Tao?

On the west mountain that day, Zhang Tao who wanted to kill Lvyi and Sister Chen?

Lin Su's heart was greatly moved.

"Don't make me do it today!" An Ye said: "There are only six days left in the scientific examination. After the scientific examination, I promise you that I will put his head in front of Sister Chen and Luyi immediately."

Zhang Tao messed with Sister Chen and Lvyi, but he was already on the death list.

But everyone has a consensus, that is, before the scientific examination, he cannot be touched.

why?
As long as Lin Su killed Zhang Tao, no matter under what circumstances, he committed the felony of killing the relatives of court officials, they would have a reason to take Lin Su down, at least they would not allow him to participate in the scientific examination.

Zhang Tao is just a useless prodigal son, even if he dies, his damage to Zhang Wenyuan is limited, but if he, Lin Su, is cut off from the scientific research because of this prodigal son, he will suffer a lot.

Lin Su nodded: "You don't need to do anything. Zhang Tao's life is already in my chess game. Before the scientific examination, he must die!"

"Before the scientific examination? Are you sure?" An Ye was surprised.

"Don't worry, if I kill him, it won't affect my scientific research."

Lin Su walked all the way, and suddenly, he stopped.

Because the carriage in front also stopped, a house slave stared at a refugee girl in front of him and smiled: "Little girl, didn't you sell yourself to bury your father? My son bought it!"

The girl trembled all over, and slowly raised her head. This is a beautiful and moving girl, with tears in her eyes, making her look even more pitiful.

"Master Dade, can you give me three taels of silver? Rong Nu's family bought a thin-skinned coffin and buried my father?"

A voice came from the carriage: "Yes! This is five taels of silver. You go to the river over there to wash your body and come up to sleep with me. The five taels of silver are yours!"

The woman was shocked: "Young master, my family... my family... can be a cow or a horse for the young master, a slave or a handmaiden, but...my father's bones are not cold, how can he do such an inappropriate thing? Young master, please respect yourself..."

Her face was red and white, and her body trembled slightly, obviously unbearable.

This is the official way, there are countless refugees, who can stand being insulted on the spot?What's more, her father's body is still by her side, and she really insulted her ancestors by doing such a misdemeanor.

The young master on the carriage said coldly: "Is it hypocritical to plan to sell? Since the price has been made and I have paid the money, it means that the deal has been concluded. Someone will pull her into the river and wash her clean, and bring her up to this young master!"

This is plausible, the refugees looked at each other in blank dismay, some of the refugees wanted to come over, but they didn't dare to see those servants acting like wolves and tigers.

Several servants stepped forward, and the woman screamed...

At this moment, a figure in blue stepped over, raised his hand, and three servants flew up at the same time.

An old man driving the car, his eyes were cold, and his whole body suddenly looked like a mountain.

He could see that the young literati in front of him was quite extraordinary in skill, he must be Wu Ji.

Lin Su said: "Sell yourself to bury your father, right? The plot in the drama is interesting, I bought it!"

Zhang Tao in the carriage was furious: "Where did such a poor scholar come from? How dare you meddle in my son's affairs..."

Lin Su said: "This girl offered three liang of price, it's just a reserve price, naturally the one with the highest price will get it! Come on, let's fight for financial resources!"

Ha ha!Zhang Tao looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Are you from the countryside? Dare to compete with me for financial resources? Okay, ten taels!"

"100 taels!"

Zhang Tao's laughter stopped abruptly, and all the refugees were stunned.

100 taels?You are kidding?

Zhang Tao said coldly: "200 taels!"

Lin Su smiled faintly: "1000 taels!"

Everyone is petrified.

The old man in the carriage stood up slowly: "The price has been issued, and you must have the corresponding bank note on your body. Please take out the 1000 taels of silver note! Otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?" Lin Su looked at him coldly.

"Otherwise, you are making trouble maliciously, and you need to bear the consequences of making trouble."

Lin Su raised his hand!
A stack of bank notes appeared in the palm!
The first one, Dacang Qianyuan Yinzhuang, pay at sight: 1000 taels!

The old man's face changed suddenly.

Really?
"The old man is right! Once you make a price, you must have a corresponding bank note." Lin Su said: "In broad daylight, the world is open and the world is clear. The rules are applicable to both parties. From now on, every time you make a price, please Brighten the silver ticket! I have already bid 1000 taels, do you want to increase the price?"

Zhang Tao just came out to play, and he really didn't have thousands of taels of silver notes on him. For a prodigal like him, his family also controls his finances. Every penny is given to him by his mother. His mother knows how much money he has. How could it be possible to give him thousands of taels if the money was spent?
He gritted his teeth: "Do you know who I am? Dare..."

Lin Su interrupted directly: "Zhang Wenyuan's fifth son, Zhang Tao, right? It's not that I look down on you, not to mention you, but your father Zhang Wenyuan is here today, and I've beaten him with money to make him doubt his life!"

Zhang Tao was livid with anger: "Who are you?"

"Who am I? Haha! Ask your family Zhang Xiu and Zhang Haoyue, who ruined their literary circles? Ask your eight generations of ancestors, who let your Zhang family cut off their roots in Haining? Ask your family Zhang Hong, who broke his literary circles?" Road test? Ask your father Zhang Wenyuan, who nailed him to the pillar of shame with the phrase "Wag the Tail of Los Angeles"!"

Zhang Tao, the old man, and the servant beside the carriage all changed their faces.

"Lin Su!"

"Exactly!" Lin Su said lightly: "Didn't your family always want to trouble me? Go back and tell Zhang Wenyuan that the prelude to the decisive battle has begun. From now on, it's time to fight back. You Zhang family, you should be careful! "

The old man fixed his sharp eyes on Lin Su.

Lin Su also stared at him: "There are people who are dogs everywhere, but to be a dog you must have the consciousness to be a dog! Get lost!"

All servants were enraged at the same time.

But the old man's chest heaved and he slowly turned his horse's head and returned.

Zhang Tao was furious, the old man's voice came into his ears, Zhang Tao's face changed, what the old man told him was: there are experts present, at least peek into the sky!
The old man had just stepped into the realm of peeping people, and he felt the oppression from the realm, which made him feel like he was falling into a cellar of ice, how dare he move around, this is in the suburbs, if he was offended, the group of them would really Throw your life in the wild.

have to return immediately.

The members of the Zhang family left, and the woman was in shock. Today she is a commodity, and from the moment she made an offer, she has lost her choice. Will the young man in front of him be like that villain and give her A new round of humiliation?
Lin Su raised his hand: "This is ten taels of silver. You can bury your father Haosheng. It was just to save you, so don't worry about it."

Ten taels of silver were handed over to the woman.

The woman's body trembled slightly.

"Don't worry, this is just for you, you don't need anything in return, I'm leaving, goodbye!" Lin Su strode away.

"My lord..." The woman fell to her knees.

Lin Su has disappeared.

Lin Su broke away from the official road and set foot on the West Mountain.

Compared with a few days ago, Xishan is completely different. A few days ago, the mountain was full of peach blossoms, but now, only empty branches are left, and there are still a few bright red petals on the rocks that have been trampled into mud, that's all.

A few students were on the hillside in front, shaking their heads and reciting poems, and a group of people applauded. After the Xishan Poetry Fair, Xishan gradually became a holy place in the hearts of the students, endowed with unique cultural attributes. Lin Su’s handed down green poems, It was engraved on the outer wall of the temple by Lingyin Temple. At the same time as this poem, there are also poems by Lu Youwei, Bi Xuanji and Xie Xiaoyan. Of course, the most popular among women is the song "Buying Flowers". Princess Feng stayed in her other courtyard in Xishan throughout the rainy season, watching the burial of flowers and crying...

The poem wall of Lingyin Temple has become a unique landscape of Lingyin Temple, attracting a large number of literati, and the entire Xishan Mountain has also attracted countless literati. wall.

It is a unique phenomenon of this era that a few poems make a mountain.

Lin Su strolled up, passing through the tourist crowd, no one recognized him as the legend of literature and Taoism that made this humble West Mountain famous.

The big peach tree is still there, but there are no peach blossoms. Without peach blossoms, there are still literati playing "flowers and liuwen" here. If there are no flowers, then come to the leaves!Whoever leaves the leaves on the white jade platform will compose a poem.

Lin Su's gaze swept away, and the person sitting on the white jade platform actually had an acquaintance. It was Du Zhou who had bet against him during the Huichang Examination. Before participating in the test, he was full of confidence, with an expression of "others are making wedding dresses for me", but he did not expect that the test would be a duel between masters, and few people were weak, so he only ranked No. .30 three, not to mention being easily stepped on by Lin Su, even Lin Jialiang stepped on his head.

From that moment on, Du Zhou's mentality was out of balance.

When fighting for Wenshan, he originally had the opportunity to harvest blue Wenshan, but because he was unwilling to be stepped down by both Lin brothers, he overestimated his strength and wanted to attack purple Wenshan, but failed to attack and was knocked down from the sky, and took an orange trash Wenshan—— He and Zhao Ji became troubled brothers.

On the way of Wen Dao, we pay attention to the foundation, Wengen, Literary World, Wenshan, Wenxin are all the foundations.

Any shortcoming in any place will restrict the road ahead.

For example, Orange Wenshan can only make you a Jinshi at most, and you can get the worst literary heart. In your whole life, you will never want to enter the ultimate literary heart. .

Du Zhou and Zhao Ji, the two favored sons of heaven, have reaped the orange Wenshan, and they are a bit self-defeating. They didn't have much hope for the undergraduate palace examination, so they simply let go, sleeping in flowers and willows everywhere, reciting poems against each other, writing mediocre, There is a tendency to go all the way towards the dude.

It is common in any world for a genius to take a wrong step and slip into mediocrity.

Lin Su was too lazy to listen to these people's poems, so he went directly to Lingyin Temple, bypassing the big peach tree.

Outside Lingyin Temple, there is a huge screen wall, the most conspicuous part of which is engraved with Lin Su's handed down poem: The world is full of fragrance in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple begin to bloom...

The handwriting on it is beautiful, if nothing else, it should be written by a woman.

Sure enough, he quickly got the answer. These poems were all left by the layman Banshan, and the layman Banshan was Bi Xuanji!

In front of the poem wall, there was a lot of people. Lin Su moved lightly and came to a side door. Above the side door, there was a piece of green bamboo with three gentle inscriptions engraved on the green bamboo: Dwelling in the middle of the mountain.

Lin Su knocked lightly on the door, and the door opened with a creak. A bald monk about seven or eight years old stood by the door, looking at Lin Su with two big dark eyes.

Lin Su's heart skipped a beat. That day, when Lvyi and Sister Chen were in danger, a young monk rescued them. Lin Su went up the mountain today and brought a large box of snacks specially to thank the little monk. Did this happen?

As soon as his thousand-degree pupil was activated, he felt abnormal.

The little monk in front of him has a faint Buddha light and boundless spiritual wisdom. It must be him!
