Riding the Pheonix Chapter 352: Scribe
The conflict between the Snow Wolf Tribe and Prince Hulun was tacitly settled.
The barbarians from other tribes were watching the fun and didn't want it to end like this.
When the caravan’s goods were almost sold, the Tenjin Festival arrived.
Yuncai City is bustling like never before, and the streets are full of barbarians.
Mingwei simply didn’t go out.
Where the barbarians gather, the smell of mutton is really...
Until before departure, Nasu came to invite me.
Hou Liang had a sad face and came over to ask her: "Miss Ming, do you want to go to Tianshen Mountain too?"
"Of course." Mingwei said without hesitation, "The prince invites me. You are the owner of the caravan, how can you not go?"
"But these guys..."
"Tian Shen Mountain is a place for divine sacrifices, how can we let so many people in? Anyway, almost all the goods that should be sold are sold, let them receive the goods here! It is already a snow wolf to allow a few of us to go in and watch the ceremony. The sincerity of the whole department."
Seeing Hou Liang drooping his head, Mingwei smiled softly and pretended to have a heart-to-heart conversation with him: "Sir, are you worried that your life will be in danger if you go to Tianshen Mountain?"
Hou Liang smiled awkwardly: "Girl..."
“We have shared the joys and sorrows for three months, but you still don’t want to tell the truth to me?”
Hearing her tone, Hou Liang immediately decided to tell the truth: "To tell you the truth, I am really worried! These barbarians are very fierce, and this God Festival is clearly a Hongmen Banquet. If they have a conflict, ..."
Mingwei said seriously: "Sir, it's wrong to think so. I won't hide it from you. The Heavenly God Festival is indeed very dangerous. It can be said that the Beggar Hu tribe will definitely launch an attack on the Heavenly God Festival, and the other seven tribes, including the Snow Wolf tribe, are obviously I will not obey willingly."
Hou Liang asked expectantly: "Do you have any good ideas that can save us from taking risks?"
Mingwei shook his head: "That's not true."
Hou Liang's expression fell: "Then we still have to fight with our lives!"
Ming smiled: "I haven't finished speaking yet. Why are you so anxious, sir?"
Hou Liang quickly handed over his hand: "You say it, you say it!"
Ming Wei looked at him softly: "Although your character has been criticized in many ways, you can definitely afford it if you are learned and rich."
After receiving her recognition, Hou Liang felt a little elated and said modestly: "Thank you for your praise. I really studied hard when I was young. Even if I was in a den of thieves later, I would not let go of the book."
"That is to say, your talents and knowledge were wasted in vain because you were involved in a fraud case and were not allowed to take the scientific examination."
Hou Liang sighed.
Even if he is a real villain, as a disciple of a saint, he still deeply regrets that he cannot use what he has learned.
Learned literary and martial arts and sold them to the emperor's family.
Which scholar doesn’t have this idea? Otherwise, why is the white-haired old man still working hard to take the exam? It would be better for him to just give up on this path. No matter how talented and learned he is, he can't take this step.
"But it's different now! You do have no official position, but standing here represents the people of the Central Plains. This is another extremely important thing for the Hu people, even if the envoys sent by the court It’s impossible for me, my ministers, to participate in the barbarian gods’ sacrifice, is it?”
Hou Liang thought for a while and nodded: "That's true."
Mingwei continued: "How important this God Festival is, I believe you must know its significance. The barbarians may take this opportunity to unite, or they may raise their swords against each other, split from then on, and have a feud for generations. Think about it. , what a great stage this is!"
Huh? Hou Liang thought about it carefully, and his eyes slowly lit up.
Mingwei spoke earnestly and continued to persuade: "As a scholar, who doesn't want to be like Kong Ming who quarreled with the scholars, or like Su Qin and Zhang Yi, who traveled among the countries and controlled the world with a weak body? Such a great opportunity? , even if my husband was the leader of high school, he may not get it. Do you really want to give up?"
Of course not! Hou's conscience was filled with ups and downs.
Yes, in order to resist the Hu people, the imperial court set up heavy troops in the northwest, and most of the military expenditures were spent on this. If it weren't for this, we wouldn't have been unable to conquer the south. It can be said that the problem of barbarians in the northwest is the biggest factor holding back Daqi.
If someone could solve the problem of beheading, how great a feat would it be? Not to mention that expelling the Hu people to Beihai can cause civil strife among the Hu people and bring peace to the northwest. This is enough to make the people a marquis!
So what if he is deprived of his qualification for the scientific examination? If you can accomplish this feat, everything in the past can be wiped out immediately!
Of course, Hou Liang is still calm. He knew that he could not accomplish the main feat by himself. The Heavenly God Sacrifice was Monk Hu's method, and only Mingwei, a Xuanshi, could intervene. But even if it’s just an auxiliary skill, it’s still big enough!
His heart was surging, and his desire for fame and fame, which had been dormant for many years, was revived.
Why should he be a bandit if he can get fame? If he could become an official of the imperial court and return to his hometown in an upright manner, why would he be thinking about escaping all day long?
Fame, fortune, glory and wealth will all follow!
No amount of money can buy this!
He made a prompt decision, leaned over and bowed: "Please teach me, girl."
Mingwei smiled happily: "Sir, just think about it. You don't have to worry too much. Of course, I will do the most dangerous thing in going to Tianshen Mountain. Sir, just stay with Prince Sutu. Prince Sutu Although he is proficient in the culture of the Central Plains, he is not from the Central Plains after all. He only knows a little about it, so sir, you must teach him well!"
The word "good" emphasized the tone. ~IndoMTL.com~ Hou Liangliang understood: "I understand, little one."
Isn’t it just a lie? He was used to this job. When he was a bandit, he racked his brains every day to do this. It's just that the target of the deception has been changed from a bandit to a prince. What's so difficult about this?
Hou Liang completed his psychological transformation in an instant, and he was so high-spirited that he wished he could go to Tianshen Mountain immediately so that the barbarians would know what it means to be a scribe from the Central Plains!
……
The award documents came out again, and Feng Yi, the magistrate of Gaotang County, was already numb.
Faced with the master's congratulations, he just smiled faintly: "Just keep it, don't bring it up every day for a small achievement."
The master complimented him again.
Feng Yi waved his hand and asked him: "Where is Young Master Yang now?"
Master said: "I went to the racecourse the day before yesterday and didn't meet the young master. Mr. Ning said that the young master went hunting."
Feng Yi nodded: "Autumn is here, it's time to hunt."
Maybe he was hunting and killed another wave of bandits.
In recent months, Gaotang County has been extremely peaceful. The Yanshan business road has been cleaned up. Many caravans have diverted to this road, and a lot of business taxes have been collected.
He is almost certain that he will be promoted after this term.
Over the past few days, he has been getting closer to Mr. Yang, and he has gradually realized something.
For example, the opponent is definitely not the incompetent Prince Wang and Sun. Just look at the bandits in Yanshan. The Northwest Army had no choice but to kill them.
However, the benefits this Mr. Yang has brought to him are too great. For his own consideration, he can only hide it for him.
Feng Yi thought for a while and said: "When Mr. Yang comes back, we will go to the racecourse."...
