Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Yulin Guard was only established during the Chenghua reign. It was used to guard the key points of the Hetao throat and respond to the second armies of Shanxi and Ningxia to guard Guanzhong. This is a must-see place for Tartars to invade from the Loop. There are constant wars every year. There are many dangerous mountains near the guard, loess and sand everywhere, and there are often running horse thieves and monks making trouble. The journey is extremely difficult.

Nearly approaching the Yan'an Mansion area, because the border town was not peaceful, and they were transporting army food, so they should not be delayed. The two Jinyi Guards also changed the style of urging them all the time in Guan, asking them to get up late and rest early, and only settle in the city at night. They only traveled more than a thousand miles in the pass for nearly a month. After entering the Shaanxi Dusi, the journey was delayed for 20 days in just over 300 miles.

Seeing that Nano's deadline is approaching, and the penalty for overdue sticks hangs high above his head, Cui Que is so anxious that he can't wait to rush to Yulinwei. But when they went to Suide Prefecture, the imprisoned Sun and Cheng Erlishi forced them to stop and waited in the inn on the prefectural Yahou Street. They took a letter from Cui Xie and went to Yulin County to find Mr. Liu, who is close to the Cui family. Zhenfu.

This time he has not returned for two days.

Cui Que could bear it at first, and waited until the afternoon of the third day to see how dark the sky was. He couldn't wait for the two Jinyiwei to return.

Yulin is only more than two hundred miles away from Suide. The two guards in Jinyi were riding on military horses. Without them, the food carts dragged them down. Even if they lived there for one night, they would come back in the daytime easily. They hadn't returned by this time, so it must have been caused by the Liu family to hold back, and deliberately dragged them back to pay, so that he was delayed and punished!

Master Cui never used the greatest malice to speculate on the Liu family, so he couldn't wait any longer, and told his family and coachman: "The two guards in Jinyi won't return. Let's go to Yulin by ourselves, and we will get up tomorrow and go to Yulin!"

Liu’s family persuaded: “Master, wait a minute. The border gate has not been peaceful for a while. Last year, there was a tatar infringement on Jiubian. The festivals our family gave to Liu’s New Year’s Day were stopped at Yan’an Mansion and waited for Liu’s uncle. Lord brought someone to pick it up."

Cui Quezheng couldn't hear the word "Liu". When he saw people daring to use the Liu family to suppress him, he became more irritable and waved his sleeves: "You are going to be the master of my Cui for the Liu family! Old man, this is according to the court's laws. And yes, there is no need for their Liu family to give pointers and tell people to show off in front of me!"

He asked people to drag Guan Shi off, no longer waiting for Jin Yiwei, and personally stared at the convoy on the road.

When I went out on this day, the sky was still dark, and the sand on the Loess Plateau was full of wind and sand, and even the days of socializing in summer and autumn brought a gloomy chill. Cui Que went to bed early night and day. He got up too early today and was a little too sleepy. He wrapped his gown tightly in the car.

I can't sleep well in this car.

The thunderous sound of horseshoes and wheels roared in the ears, and the smelly soil foam was blown into the car by the wind. The veil curtains had been bumpy and dirty on the road. As soon as the wind beat, the soil accumulated on the curtains blew into the carriage, and the wet rustic smell of rust peculiar to border towns.

He has been smelling this smell for many days, but he is still not used to it, and the carriage under the bottom of the buttocks like a board makes people feel uncomfortable. He couldn't help knocking on the car board, and told the driver to stop for a drink and take a break-anyway, the two imprisoned Jin Yiwei stared at when they walked and stopped. Master Cui was the master on the road.

The car stopped immediately and stopped too hard, almost throwing him onto the wall of the car, and dust from the windows poured into the car, choking him hard for a while. The family member who was serving in the car also ran into the car and shouted out of the car: "How come you stop in such a hurry, it's over to our master!"

The coachman's voice trembled slightly into the carriage, shouting like "Master for mercy." Master Cui shouted out the window impatiently: "Who wants your life? The old man only tells you to park more safely, don't be so bumpy!"

As he said, he suddenly felt something was wrong-not only his coachman was calling the master for mercy, as if there were several voices shouting together. It was clear that their motorcade should stop, and the sound of horses hoofs still passed through his ears, and through the gauze curtains filled with loess, it seemed that there was a shadow of riding a horse.

He couldn't help but opened the curtain and took a look out, and he saw a scene that made him heartbroken-his food convoy was surrounded by a group of horse thieves, with swords and swords standing brightly, and all the family behind them were **** like quail. , Several cars were also taken over by the culprits.

The team of horse thieves saw him stretch out half of his face, and a middle-aged beard slapped him immediately, drew the tip of the sword across his sword, and shaved off half of his face with a sharp blade, and said with a smile: " The king is short of food and grass. You are an old man. You have sent so many cars to wait for polished rice, and the king will laugh at it!"

Horse thieves come and go like the wind, and they robbed of their rice and left without hurting people or money. When they were far away, a few family members struggled to untie the ropes to help him.

Cui Que waited for a long time to stand up, his legs still a little soft, and he gasped and said, "This must be Liu's harm to me! This will be Liu's harm to me!"

The accompanying family members were so scared that they wanted to cover his mouth: "The master should be careful when speaking! The master of the family is the town caretaker, and all the children and grandchildren are generals here. The master is no longer in official status, so there is no way to scold those who have official status. Yeah!"

But a veteran...

Cui Que wanted to curse happily, but he closed his mouth sadly. Just over half a year ago, he was still a fourth-ranking senior official and Qingliu civil servant who was admired by his hometown fathers and elders. He could disdain these military officers. Now he is not only a dead officer, but also a criminal of Nano Atonement. Up.

He gritted his teeth, leaned on the car board, and looked at the family members who were accompanying him: "Are there any money left? They want to take my rations and cause me to be tortured. How can I do what they want!"

He is going to buy food again, and when he gets home, he will ask his eldest son to report to Liu's family and vent his anger to his father!

He missed Liu Jiaxian's deep memory, and Liu Zhenfu, who was far away in Yulin Town, was thinking of him, and asked his second son who was sitting beside him: "This boring property will belong to my brother Xie in the future. If he grabs his rice on the road, will he still have money to buy grain? If he is asked to buy expensive rice and then come back, will the compensation be my grandson's money between coming and going?"

His caring son smiled and said, "Father, don’t worry, I’ve ordered those people to send Mira to Suide and resell it to the Cui family. The money in the middle falls into our hands and we send someone Just give it to Brother Xie? Cui Que is no longer an official now. A man who was sentenced to death by paying the grain and ransoming his death by his son's holy favor, can he turn the sky in our Yulin? I will put these cars into the warehouse first , You always stamped the two Jin Yiwei adults and sent them back to Beijing."

Jin Yiwei is gone, so they can clean up the sister-in-law.

The father and son were prepared to entertain the son-in-law after discussion. Across the mountain road more than a hundred miles away, Master Cui was really ready to buy another ten shi to send to the border officer. The family members called Fangcai's robbers were frightened, afraid that they would be robbed after they bought the rice, so they persuaded the owner to wait for the two Jinyiwei adults to return before making arrangements.

But where can Cui Que listen?

He believed that the two great men had gone to Liu's house for two days, and they must have collected their money. They had colluded with each other and could not be trusted!

If they delay Nami’s life, the Liu family will definitely punish him with a crime; if they ask for help empty-handed, it doesn’t need to be said-he had a feud with the Liu family. How dare you, now that Feng Shui turns around, is there no revenge?

No matter how powerful the eldest son is in the DPRK, at most he can only seek justice for himself after the fact. Isn't he still suffering from it?

He was determined to buy rice, but the rice at the border gate was nearly twice as expensive as Jingli, and he dared to ask for nearly forty taels of silver for ten shi rice, which was almost what they had left on the return trip. Everyone was afraid that they would have no money to return home after buying rice. They persuaded him not to act for a while, bow his head with the Liu family, and ask the former Yue Zhang and brothers-in-laws to borrow some rice for him.

Master Cui has an arrogant body again, how can he break it so easily!

He has always been a decisive and action-oriented person. At the beginning, he fought against the Liu family, abandoned Xu's family, Qing Huang's album...every one was his own arbitrariness, and this time buying rice was the same. He stared at people and took the money Cui Xie gave Guan Shi Liu, and sent his family to buy rice everywhere.

The places here are all military villages, which produce a lot of miscellaneous grains and less white rice. No one is willing to buy so much if they have money. The family and the coachman spent a few days groping around, but in the end a passing convoy came from nowhere, carrying four large carts of rice, and selling them for five or two and one stone.

Everyone in the Cui family had spent all their money. Master Cui had to **** a few thick silk clothes for spring, and hired a car to set foot on the road to Yulin again.

They didn't know that, just as they Man Suide was turning around looking for rice, the two guards in Jinyi had already carried stamped papers and full of gold and silver, and happily set off on their way home.

On the way, the two of them kept admiring: "Although Mrs. Liu's daughter died early, she has nothing to say to her son-in-law and grandson. The old man Cui hasn't reached the border yet, so we only heard that there was a fine. The family hurriedly took out their own private treasury to make up for it, and used the seal for us, for fear that the son-in-law would go too slowly."

Sun Lishi tried his best to praise Liu’s generosity, but Cheng Lishi said: “It’s not like loving his son-in-law too much. It’s probably because of Cui Hanlin’s face. After the daughter is gone, isn’t the grandson just the golden lump? Face, Cui Hanlin's face is also beautiful..."

It's a pity that there is such a father who has even had an accident, and the son can only think about making the dough mature.

The two of them were discussing as they walked into the pass, but they had never collided with the Cui family in Yulin City, and they got further and further apart. Master Cui didn’t have the guards and guards, and he bitterly wanted to go home and play them a book, but he acted more cautiously. After buying food, he personally took people to guard the night in the backyard of the inn. He set off at dawn the next day. We arrived in Yulin before dark.

Master Cui was afraid that Liu's family would come out to humiliate him, so Da Xia Tian had a cloak on him, and he prepared a lot of words to deal with the army. But he didn't want no one from Liu's family to pick him up. No one even took a look at him. The two Jinyi guards who escorted him were not there, leaving them alone in this unfamiliar place.

Liu Zhuangtou, who was familiar with the place, told him to throw it in Yulin, but he couldn't call him anymore.

But he was a hard-hearted and decisive person, no longer thinking about the Liu family, and only asked his family to find out where they should be transported. This Yulin Guard is a guard station, not an ordinary city. The artisans and residents in the city are mostly military surpluses. They are very familiar with military affairs, and quickly pointed them to the guard house.

When he got outside the Weijun's mansion, Cui Que hid in the car and ordered his family to report that he had resigned from the Yunnan Senator Cui Quelai Nano.

The Liu family still didn’t come out. What came out of the gate was a middle-aged military officer wearing a Beijing-style pinching waist and dragging his waist. He vulgarly smiled toward his carriage and said, “What’s going to be a counselor? After reading such documents, I only heard that Cui Que, a guilty criminal who broke the law, wanted to come to Nano to make atonement. Where is the sinner Cui Que? Where is Cui Que, the culprit of Nano's two-day loss of time?"

Cui Que was so ashamed that he didn't want to get out of the car. But the Guardian sergeant gradually came up, and the big man called his name directly against his car. He couldn't help but got out of the car while covering his face. With a clear cough, he held the Jinshi's shelf and said: "Cui was ordered to this..."

The official didn’t wait for him to speak at all. He waved his hand and ordered him to go into the mansion, put him in the second hall, and said: “The sinner Cui Que Yunmi lost his time for two days. The officer stripped off his clothes and tortured!"

Do not! Can't steak! He is a jinshi from the former dynasty, is, and was once a senior member of the fourth rank, how can he be humiliated by the hand of the army! These people deliberately framed him to make him bow his head and be humiliated!

Those hands opened his clothes, forcing him to finally call out the word "father-in-law": "My father-in-law is Yulin Weizhen Fu Liu, how can you treat me like this!"

The man had taken the boss's strict order long ago and asked someone to press his shoulders, waist, and legs with a stick. He sneered and said: "Master Cui is both an official and relatives who have been an official. He doesn't even know that an official is a prisoner. Relatives, the law of avoidance in the event? You are tortured in accordance with the law if you fail to transport your grains. The officer looked at the face of Liu Zhenfu and the two young masters, and did not tell you to take off your pants and meet people in the yard. , Change to torture in the second hall, do you think it is not enough?"

He threw the small sign in the tube down and shouted: "I want to rely on relatives to suppress this officer? Our army can't tolerate this kind of lawlessness. Give the officer another ten kicks and fight!"

The sound of the wooden board entering the meat sounded crisply, mixed with Cui Que's tragic voice. Liu Zhenfu and his second son who stayed in the city sat in the back hut and listened. Hearing his voice gradually lowered, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. He asked his son who served beside him: "Then Cui Que is a prisoner who just came out of imprisonment. The servant ran to the border, and his body was crisp, and he could not stand the dozens of boards? Don't really kill him. Brother Xie still has to keep him filial. Doesn't this delay his appointment?"

His son only hated that the fight was not ruthless enough, not to mention that Cui Que could not stand it. He grinned and said, "It is a small board, it does not hurt the body. He searched for the people in Yunnan Province, and he certainly developed a good physique. Where can anyone die so soon? The big deal is over and leave him in the border to raise him for a few months, and then let him go back next year. Anyway, he still has to take four years and toss slowly."

It's okay if you die. Cui Xie has never been able to get married. Isn't it that he is afraid of hindering his father, grandfather and brother? Now his grandfather is dead. As long as his father dies and the brothers are separated, he can get married...

The father and son of the Liu family were in the small room quietly listening to the sound of the board and the hoarse calls coming from outside. When the voices diminished, Liu Zhenfu made up his mind: "You have cleaned up the paperwork. Don't ask people to find out the traces in the future. Let's send people out without leaving Cui Que to heal their injuries..."

He couldn't kill his grandson's biological father with his own hands, and Cui Que's life and death was up to destiny.
