Dressed As the Deadly Opponent of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination

Tang Hang glanced at Pei Yunxiao, and Fang replied, "My lord, I do have this. But... no one has recommended it."

Both Liu Yin and Zhang Bai were taken aback, looking at Pei Yunxiao together.

When the country was founded in the Dali calendar period, the previous system of selecting officials was abolished and the imperial examination system was used. However, the court has always been controlled by the family of the lord, so there are regulations that those who participate in the imperial examination must be recommended by the Korean officials or famous scholars, otherwise they are not allowed to participate.

This requirement is nothing but a piece of cake for people from a family of wealthy families, but for the underachievers, it is like a moat. This is why the Dali Dynasty has been inherited so far, and there are only a handful of poor officials in the court.

The relationship between Tang Heng and Pei Yunxiao can be considered. As long as Pei Yunxiao says something, Tang Heng will be able to conduct scientific research immediately. How can no one recommend it?

Zhang Bai's heart went back and forth, not knowing what he was thinking.

But Liu Ying thought more. His eyes turned on Pei Yunxiao and Tang Heng two times, but he didn't realize that the two of them had been unhappy because of the incident, and he had cares in his heart.

"Prince Tang has the heart to worry about the country and the people, and he has the ability to use the world. Such a talent is hard to meet Bole. Wouldn't it be buried? If the son is willing, this official is willing to be the person to recommend!"

As soon as the voice fell, Liu Ying immediately saw Pei Yunxiao's eyes smile, and Tang Heng was also very surprised. Only then did he feel some smell.

I am afraid that from the very beginning, Pei Yunxiao planned to let himself be Tang Heng's recommender!

But this...and why? Wouldn't it be good to bring this kind of talent under Pei's banner?

"Master Liu is a bole in the world and has a unique eye. My brother and I thanked the adults here!" Pei Yunxiao and Tang Heng raised their glasses again and toasted Liu Ying.

Liu Yin muttered more and more in his heart. What did Pei Yunxiao fancy about herself?

After the banquet was over, Zhang Bai led Liu Ying to stay at the county office. Pei Yunxiao and Tang Heng returned to the inn together.

There are no pedestrians on the street at night, and the surroundings are very quiet.

"Brother Xiao, did you mean to ask Master Liu to recommend me to participate in the test?"

Pei Yunxiao stopped and looked at Tang Hang: "Will my brother blame me for not recommending you in the name of Pei?"

Tang Heng shook his head, "Didn't Xiao brother insult me? You have a different concept from Pei Mansion. Although I don't understand, how can I not know if I have communicated with you for many years? So I have never had this idea."

"Actually, I wanted to take the opportunity of building a waterwheel to ask the magistrate to recommend me. I thought Xiaodi meant the same thing, but I didn't expect Xiaodi to think of the prefect?"

Pei Yunxiao hurriedly apologized: "It's my villain's heart. Please forgive me, brother. My brother has doubts in his heart, so I should. I wanted to surprise my brother. I blamed me for not saying it clearly."

"Brother knows, what kind of background is this prefect?"

Tang Hang naturally didn't know.

"The prefect has a surname Liu, whose name is Yuanhe, and comes from the Liu clan of Yingchuan. Because he is a side branch, his family has gradually declined. Therefore, there is no way of promotion, and he has been in the presidency for ten years."

"Yingchuan Liu family?" Tang Heng opened his mouth slightly, surprised. I never thought that the prefects of the prefecture had such a background.

"Since I am sincere with my elder brother, I will make it clearer. My elder is born in a poor family and wants to live in a temple and beg for orders for the people. It is as difficult as climbing. If you want to get things done, your elder brother should have some personal connections, especially to make more connections. Many unfamiliar children.

But the family has always been opposed to the poor family. If I recommend my brother in the name of the Pei family, then my brother will be an enemy of the world's poor family from now on. But Liu Ying is different.

The side branches of the declining family cannot be reused either. With his recommendation, the elder brother and Mrs. Liu will have a half-teacher friendship. In the future... those declining families will naturally have a good impression of the elder brother. This is also the person that the elder brother should make friends with. "

Pei Yunxiao's words can be described as straightforward, so he almost told Tang Heng that I want to hold you up and pave a great road for you.

In the original book, the male protagonist took such a path. Only at this time, Tang Heng was still trapped in the abyss, and was not as politically sensitive as her. She simply pointed it out and let Tang Hang know that she was planning for him with all her heart.

"Brother Dao, why did Master Liu agree? Everyone has ambitions. My brother has such a talent in the world, I hint, why would he not want to win over one or two?"

Tang Heng was shocked.

In fact, he was a little aware of Pei Yunxiao's thoughts, she was indeed not like a family member, and was incompatible with many concepts of the family family. It's just that Tang Hang did not expect that Pei Yunxiao was really so rebellious and bold.

But he admired her boldness and was shocked by her straightforwardness.

Liu Ying will be willing to recommend himself, in addition to his own reasons, I am afraid it is more for the identity of Pei Yunxiao. But Tang Heng didn't mind. Doesn't he have the intention to take advantage of it himself?

He just didn't know why Pei Yunxiao chose him, and why he trusted him so much. He didn't want to miss this opportunity, and in the same way, he didn't want to let down this friendship.

"Brother Xiao." Tang Heng raised his arms and gave a gift from a scholar to Pei Yunxiao.

"Brother Xiao planned for me like this, Heng will live up to it in this life!"

Pei Yunxiao was extremely moved and bowed back to worship:

"I would like to be with my brother in the same heart. I hope that my brother will have a bright future and have a bright future!"

Although all her original intentions were to save her life. But at this moment, she is willing to open up her heart, make sincere friendship with Tang Hang, and become a true friend.

Two days later, the document recommended by Liu Yin was delivered to the inn, and Tang Heng had already written down his name in the test solution to be held next month.

Pei Yunxiao is a citizen of Beijing, and he is supposed to take the exam in Beijing. But she really didn't want to return to the capital so early, so she simply stayed in Qingshan County to study with Tang Heng, and waited until the deadline to set off.

Unexpectedly, the book was not completed, but Jinhe, who was chasing Zhezhou, came back.

"Jinhe, did you find the salt gang's lair?" Pei Yunxiao was very anxious.

"The subordinates were entrusted by the young man, and the salt gang disappeared as soon as they entered the territory of Zhezhou. After several investigations, they found nothing." Jin He was full of guilt.

Pei Yunxiao's eyes calmed him and he didn't have to blame himself, but he also felt strange: "This is strange, the geese have left traces, people have left their voices, and there are so many people in the salt group. They want to eat and drink, and they can't find a trace. Bar?"

Jinhe and the four are all masters carefully cultivated by the Pei family. Their martial arts, tracing, and exploration are all top-notch. Is it possible that the salt gang can go to heaven and earth?

"Little son, the subordinates don't believe that there is no clue, but no matter how the investigation is done, there is no progress. So the subordinates have a speculation..." Jin He hesitated.

"you say!"

"Subordinates speculate that Zhezhou, including the Jiangnan provinces and counties where the previous case was committed, is probably under the control of the salt gang. Only in this way can they collude with each other and help erase all traces."

"..." Pei Yunxiao stood up all of a sudden and stared at Jinhe closely.

"Jinhe, be careful!" Jinnian hurriedly warned.

This kind of speculation is equivalent to saying that Zhezhou and other places are connected into a piece, and they are already an independent small court, and they will not listen to the emperor and Liubu's dispatch!

Pei Yunxiao didn't believe it either. It's not that she doesn't believe that the He family and Fenyanghou don't have that courage, but she doesn't believe that the He family can have such a powerful influence.

As the two opposing leaders in the family, the He family and the Pei family have been fighting for so many years, and they know each other very well. The He family has such great abilities, can he do such a thing under the guise of the world?

That's a force entrenched in thirteen states and counties!

"Little son, his subordinates are not alarmist." Jin He explained:

"Although his subordinates have not found traces of the Salt Gang in Zhezhou, they can see many other doorways. For example, there is only one salt shop in the city, and it is very close to the prefect Yamen. This situation is very similar to the situation in Qingshan County. "

Seeing that Pei Yunxiao had heard it, Jinhe continued:

"The subordinates also heard a rumor that bandits murdered and robbed people in Zhezhou City in the middle of the night, so no one dared to go out at night. After investigation, the subordinates discovered that they did patrol at night.

This seems normal, but unusual. The huge Zuzhou Mansion can actually allow the culprits to kill in the street, and they can’t catch the culprits for several months. It can’t be justified! "

"The subordinate thought that as long as the young man went to Zhezhou, he would be able to detect the weirdness."

Pei Yunxiao knew that Jinhe had always been careful, and since he could say this categorically, it proved that there must be a big problem.

The Jiangnan private salt case has been closed on the bright side. The reason why He and Fenyanghou dared to reach a cooperation at this time might not be because it was time for the court to relax.

They didn't know that the emperor and Pei's family had sent themselves to investigate secretly, which was convenient for Pei Yunxiao.

The reason why the emperor and grandfather did not let her act rashly was nothing more than because they were afraid that they would not be able to catch them all at once. But if it is true as Jinhe inferred that all the 13 states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River have colluded, then what is terrible?

She only needs to take a trip to Zhezhou, confirm Jinhe's judgment, and then play the emperor, and put these forces in one pot, worrying about the fish slipping through the net?

At that time, the case will be handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for the first trial. If the case is unjust or not, isn't it clear?

After thinking about it, Pei Yunxiao finally made up his mind: "Okay, let's set off right away and go to Zhezhou!"

That night, Pei Yunxiao came to Tang Hang's room and knocked on the door.

Since she came to Qingshan County, Tang Heng has been staying with her in the inn.

"Brother."

As soon as he opened the door, Tang Heng was taken aback by Pei Yunxiao, dressed in black and wearing a power fence.

"Brother Xiao, this is..."

"Brother, Zhezhou has changed. I must leave overnight to say goodbye to my brother." Pei Yunxiao said.

"Eh wait!" Tang Heng stopped her: "But the private salt matter? Since I already know the private salt case, there is no reason to stand by. I will go with Xiao brother!"

"But the exam will start next month..."

"What are you afraid of, knowledge is already in your heart, and you are afraid that you will not be able to run away?" Tang Hang chastely raised his hand: "Brother Xiao is out for a run, but I study hard, that's the only way to win."

Pei Yunxiao smiled helplessly, and had to agree. Anyway, the knowledge in Tang Heng's head was so good that she didn't need to worry about him at all.

"Then go, the carriage is already at the door."

In the dark night, the dark horse-drawn carriage secretly drove out of Qingshan County and galloped towards Zhezhou.

I didn't know how long I ran, and the sky was white, and the dawn had arrived.

Jinhe was driving, and Jinnian reported back to Pei Yunxiao in the car: "Little son, we are almost here in Zhezhou. His subordinates have arranged the illusion that we are going back to Beijing, so Zhang Bai will not be suspicious."

"Okay." Pei Yunxiao nodded: "Although Zhang Bai is just a little guy, he can't make waves, but he must be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years. Now the Yan Gang and He Jia don't know that we have been eyeing them, this This is our first opportunity."

"Brother, from now on, we need to hide our names, pretend to be traders, and act in secret." Pei Yunxiao looked at Tang Hang.

Tang Hang realized that things were unusual, and readily agreed: "Brother Xiao is the master."

"Well, my elder brother and I pretend to be a pair of brothers surnamed Jia, and specially went to Zhezhou to investigate business. Jinnian and Jinhe are our stewards, remember not to call me the little son again. If Zhezhou is really like Jinhe That said, we must be extra cautious in our every move."

"good!"

The three of them were planning, and the carriage came to a halt slowly after hearing Jinhe's "call" outside the carriage.

Just as Jinnian was about to lift the curtain to see the situation, she burst into her eardrum with a cry of help from the woman.

"Help me! Help me!"
