"What did you do when you ran to the academy?" Chen Dexing asked casually.

Chen Huaiqing smiled, and Dai Bai Zhanji replied: "Aren't you still dreaming of being Tian Shelang and ascending to Tianzi Hall at dusk?" ”

"I really can't think of it in the Twilight Heavenly Son Hall, as long as I can win one round, I will be satisfied."

"Middle-lifted?" Chen Dexing was stunned for a moment, "If you can't pass the Jinshi exam, isn't it a big one?" ”

Bai Zhanji shook his head again and again: "Is it a big measure to lift people?" You're not a mortal! ”

"Lin'an has a lot of down-and-out moves, so it's not worth much. When I arrived in this Changguo County, I was already a great talent to be able to pass the Qingyuan Mansion test. If they are members of the Deng and Shen clans, their status in the clan will not be low. If it is a small family, most of them can also get a good marriage with a large amount of dowry. And if you can be promoted, you will have the opportunity to be a jinshi, and you are also a number of people in Shilin, Qingyuan Mansion, and the officials of Changguo County dare not provoke. Whether it's business or farming, it's much easier. ”

Chen Huaiqing opened his mouth to explain for Bai Zhanji. It turns out that although the people of the Song Dynasty are not famous, they are also very respected figures in the local area. You can become a celebrity in Shilin, as long as you don't have endless dreams of becoming a scholar and fail to try, but focus on running your family business, how can you run a moderately rich man.

"Yes, yes, that's it." Bai Zhanji nodded again and again, "Look at your style, old man, I think you are also a figure in the sky, this dynasty is Tian Shelang, and the scenery of the Twilight Tianzi Hall must have been experienced, right?" ”

"Scenery? It's okay......" Chen Huaiqing touched his beard and said, "I was very happy at the beginning, but after a long time, it's like this, and now...... It's just chicken ribs. ”

Oh, yes. His son should be the emperor in a few years, and then he will be either a prince or at least a prince. The Jinshi of the Great Song Dynasty was for him. Isn't it just chicken ribs? If he were to choose again, he would rather read less. Don't want any Wen Jinshi, save your time, take a few more concubines, and give Chen Dexing a nest of younger brothers and sisters......

"Jinshi are all chicken ribs? Ouch! You're such a great official! The little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he doesn't know Mount Tai......" Bai Zhanji heard this, and hurriedly saluted.

In fact, I have already seen some clues - during this time, because of the dialectics of Putuo Mountain, there were many big people in small Zhoushan who visited Weifu privately. He trotted out of the hall, which can be regarded as an eye-opener. However, it was the first time to talk to a big official in person.

"I'm not Taishan," Chen Huaiqing said, pointing at Chen Dexing. "He is!"

Father and son? Bai Zhanji gasped, what day is today? Wenqu Xing's father and son came down together? Listening to the tone of this old jinshi, it seems that this small one is more promising...... It must be that he was young when he was a junior sergeant, his ranking was also high, and he had a good appearance, and he was recruited by the big guy in the DPRK to do the east bed!

"It turns out that the little gentleman is also a jinshi, and the little one has kowtowed to you!" As he spoke, Bai Zhanji was about to kowtow to Chen Dexing.

Chen Dexing waved his hand, "I'm not a Jinshi." Kneel, lead the way, I'm going to Tingtao Academy to take a look. ”

A moment later, Chen Dexing arrived at the gate of Tingtao Academy. The black-clad family at the entrance of the academy seemed to be prepared for the arrival of visitors. They greeted him and saluted respectfully. Chen Huaiqing casually reported his name, and then asked, "Is Mr. Guanhai in the academy?" ”

"Guanhai" is naturally a number, and in ancient times, Chinese officials and scholars would generally give one or several numbers in addition to their names and characters. For example, Chen Huaiqing's character Jun is called with a sword, so some people call him Mr. with a sword.

And this Mr. Guanhai is named Deng Minghai. is Deng Mingchao's brother, and the two together are "watching the sea and listening to the waves." Deng Men Shuangjie". are all in the N many times, that is, there is no Changguo celebrity who has not been in the jinshi. It is also famous in Qingyuan Mansion and even Zhejiang Shilin.

After listening to Mr. Deng Mingchao's "thief", Mr. Guanhai Deng Minghai took over the head of Tingtao Academy.

Jia Ding said: "There seems to be something big in the county, and Mr. went to Dinghai Hall early in the morning." ”

Bai Zhanji also said: "It seems that something big happened, last night there was a commotion as if the soldiers had passed, and there are still ironclad soldiers patrolling from nowhere on the street today, and they all look majestic." ”

Now the army of the Northern Ming Dynasty is still nominally the Song army, and the jackets and armor are all Song army system, and it is not surprising that ordinary people can't tell the difference. Moreover, the discipline of the Ming army was very strict, and the soldiers did not disturb the people much after occupying Zhoushan Island without bloodshed. There was still a lot of movement on the Shen side of the house, because the landing of the Ming army and the escape of the Song army took place there. There was no feeling near the county seat of Changguo, only that the soldiers had passed last night.

However, the upper-level figures of the Deng family in Changguo were not so slow to react, and they must have known that Changguo County had changed its owner, and they all gathered in Dinghai Hall, the ancestral residence of the Deng family, to have a meeting to discuss countermeasures.

It's just a bunch of useless scholars, what countermeasures can they come up with? There may be a few Deng Mingchao among these people who can speak well and be a strategist and a master of internal relations. But if they want to organize an army to fight against the highly professional sergeant soldiers under Chen Dexing, it will be a dead end!

Another big clan on Zhoushan Island, the Shen family, who made their fortune by sea trade, has long taken refuge in Chen Dexing and become a leading party......

"If you two want to see Mr., why don't you wait in the academy for a while." Seeing that the father and son of the Chen family were all in high spirits, the family naturally knew what kind of characters they were, so they enthusiastically left them to wait in the academy.

"Okay, let's sit down for a while." Chen Dexing nodded.

Chen Huaiqing also said: "Then Brother Lao will lead the way." ”

As he spoke, he took out a few copper coins and threw them to his family. The other party took a tip, and the family was very polite to introduce a few people to the academy. Entering the gate of the academy, Chen Dexing heard the sound of reading loudly.

"The Son of Heaven is heroic, and the article teaches Ercao. Everything is inferior, but reading is high-......"

This is the "Prodigy Poem" of Wang Zhu of the Northern Song Dynasty, this Wang Zhu is also a person from Qingyuan Mansion, a jinshi during the Zhezong period, and served as a professor of Mingzhou (Qingyuan Mansion) State Studies, with many disciples, and the ancestors of the Deng family were also his disciples. However, listening to the reading of "Prodigy Poems" in Tao Academy has nothing to do with Wang Zhu's reputation.

"I'm already memorizing "Prodigy Poems", so it's almost time to eat, why don't you eat at the academy?"

An elderly man ushered everyone into a hall, served tea, and then said.

"The Prodigy Poem was memorized before meals?" Chan thinks it's a bit like Christians reciting the Bible before a meal to thank the Lord.

"Anyone who studies in the academy has to memorize it before eating two meals a day." Jia Ding replied. "This is the rule left by the ancestors of the Deng family, in order to let future generations not forget the truth that 'only reading is high'."

"Qingzhi, my father and eldest brother have also memorized "Prodigy Poems" since childhood. Scholars all over the world have memorized "Prodigy Poems" since childhood. Chen Huaiqing paused for a moment, and then added, "But you haven't memorized ......."

Chen Dexing tried hard to recall, but he really didn't know the full text of "Prodigy Poems".

Although this poem is a Mongolian reading material of the Song Dynasty, it is customary not to memorize the disciple who has decided to follow the path of a martial artist since he was a child - because "Prodigy Poem" not only instills "only reading is high", but also instills the idea of being noble and martial. If this brainwashes a "little martial artist", where will he still have the strength to practice martial arts and join the army?

Hearing Chen Huaiqing's words, the respect that the Deng family and Bai Zhanji in the house had for Chen Dexing immediately dispersed, and most of them knew that they would not memorize the rules of "Prodigy Poems". Chen Dexing has not memorized "Prodigy Poems", it must be a general, looking at his age and temperament, it is estimated that he is a major general in a certain clan town who went to Putuo Mountain to listen to dialectics.

"The two of you will take a moment, and when the meal is served, the little one will come and invite each other." The family saluted, turned and left.

……

At this moment, in the courtyard of a palatial mansion called Dinghaetang in the west of Changguo County, the air was dull. It was supposed to be a very spacious flower hall, but the garden outside was full of flowers, and the sea breeze blew slowly, dissipating all the heat of early summer. Coupled with an exquisite banquet, this scene should be a very elegant thing to drink and enjoy the flowers.

But these people in the room were all mournful, with a panicked expression, which made the whole atmosphere become desolate, as if this group of people had today and no tomorrow. Before last night, these characters wearing Confucian clothes and having no claims on their faces stomped their feet, and Zhoushan Island trembled three times. They are the elites of the Changguo Deng family's Ming generation and the Qiu character generation, and everyone has won at least two lifts, and they are very hopeful of becoming the third Jinshi master of the Changguo Deng family in one step!

But now Changguo County is occupied by the thief Chen Dexing, and the Changguo Deng family only has a bunch of Confucian students who are full of poetry and books, and they have the intention to kill the thief, but they are unable to return to the sky, so they are at a loss.

Mr. Deng Minghai is now the patriarch of the Deng family in Changguo, and he is also the convener of today's meeting of the heads of the whole clan. I wanted to hear what the big guys had to do, but I didn't expect to say a few words, and everyone frowned. The Changguo Deng family was not a martial arts clan like Jinghu, Lianghuai, or Beidi, but a Jiangnan scholar family that revolved around the standards of the imperial examination. Although there are also people who practice martial arts to take the martial arts test, the martial arts that should be raised and the art of battle formation are completely different things.

Moreover, Zhoushan Island is far away from the Mongol threat, and the peasants on the island are not very skilled in martial arts, only the maritime merchants and sailors who run the sea can fight, but these people are all under the control of the Shen family. The Deng family can mobilize the tenants who farm, most of them have not even pulled a bow, and there are no bows and arrows at home, only hoes and dung forks, and it is impossible to compete with Chen Dexing's elite soldiers.

Therefore, it is impossible to raise an army to fight for thieves, and what can be done now is nothing more than to abandon the family business and flee or turn your back on the Song Dynasty and surrender to the Ming Dynasty, or pretend to surrender with the snake and secretly contact the court as an internal response!

However, looking at the current imperial court, it seems that there is no possibility of fighting back...... (To be continued......)
