It's only ten days before the examination.

Chen Sanlang seized the time to study, and went to Mr. Yang to borrow some articles of classics and essays, and studied them carefully, striving to be confident.

On this day, Uncle Hua suddenly ran to the study room and said, "Young master, something is wrong."

Chen Sanlang put down the book and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I found someone was following outside the courtyard, and it was someone from the yamen."

In fact, Chen Sanlang also noticed it, but he was afraid that his mother would worry, so he didn't make any statement.

"Is the escape from my brother-in-law finally exposed?"

Because the two officials, Zhang Jia, Li Yi, died, Huang Quan could not appear again. Over time, it would be strange if the Huang County Magistrate did not doubt it. It was the ideal result to be delayed until now. The clues that might have left behind disappeared, and it would be difficult to catch the handle again.

"There is no doubt that the yamen must be staring at me now, and they want to find a breakthrough from me..."

Chen Sanlang thought quickly: It was just that the other party was worried that he did not rush in to catch people, but instead followed outside. But he was afraid that his patience was limited, and he might not be able to hold on one day and go straight to the side.

The state has national laws, but there are always too many loopholes in this law that can be stolen. If the magistrate Huang really tear his face and put down his airs to deal with him, Chen Sanlang, a child like this, would be unable to deal with it.

"If I were a scholar now, I would be much more calm when dealing with it."

Fate and fame, the desire for fame and fame is unprecedentedly strong.

No matter what, Jing County is now a whirlpool and should not stay for a long time. Anyway, the Academy Examination is held in Nanyang Prefecture, so it is better to go there a few days in advance. As long as he is out of the control of Huang County Magistrate, he cannot do anything randomly.

After making up his mind, Chen Sanlang went to find his mother.

Mrs. Chen Wang did not object: "Yuan'er, will you leave tomorrow?"

"If it doesn't get windy or rainy, I'll leave tomorrow. I'll leave alone, and Uncle Hua stays at home."

Seeing that his mother wanted to speak but stopped, Chen Sanlang smiled and said, "Uncle Hua wants to sell cloth for you. How can I get there? Besides, the child has been to Nanyang Prefecture and took the exam. The path is familiar, so mother doesn't have to worry."

Mrs. Chen sighed: "Well, then be careful on the way. I will cook some cakes for you to make dry food."

"Thank you, mom."

Since you plan to leave tomorrow, you have to be prepared. How could the people in the yamen let him go so easily? One of them couldn't say it, and they hijacked in the middle of the way and robbed him back.

You have to find a way to get rid of it.

After thinking about it, Chen Sanlang thought of Xu Jun: Maybe she would be the one who can help him.

Go out and go to the martial arts hall.

Sure enough, two "tails" were hanging behind him.

These were two officials, wearing casual clothes, and were not afraid of being discovered by Chen Sanlang, so he followed behind with a swagger.

"This nerd ran to the martial arts hall again."

"Ninety-one is thinking about other people's daughter."

The two of them were very leisurely gossiping.

"What do you think of Master Xu? Is he really a martial arts master who respected him in the past?"

"Tsk, what martial arts masters? You have heard too many stories about it. If the dragon does not swim in shallow water, how could there be martial arts masters in our small place?"

Another nodded deeply: "To be honest, but this Guan Master Xu's daughter is really beautiful, like a fairy, looking jealous."

"Don't do anything randomly. Many people have made the decision to make this little lady before, but none of them have fallen well. If it were so easy to succeed, this flower would have been ruined by others. Even people like Wu Laitou would have to take a detour when they see her."

"So amazing... By the way, when it comes to Wu Laitou, this guy hasn't seen anyone for many days."

"Yes, it's so strange. It seems to be missing. I don't know where I went."

"What if he doesn't matter, it's better to die and save trouble."

In fact, the officials are not happy with the ruffian who makes trouble all day long. As a bachelor, Wu Laitou, his parents were angry to death by him early, who would care whether he was dead or alive? He didn't play tricks in the streets, and I wonder how many people were secretly happy.

Watching Chen Sanlang enter the martial arts hall, two officials squatted on the corner of the street, and they were very bored: "What does the head-in-chief mean? Let's stare at people. After so many days, we didn't say anything clearly."

"No, why not, why not just click and lock people back. Give him a few big mouths, can't this kid submit?"

"Hehe, that's right. A weak scholar will probably be scared to death when he enters the cell. Why bother with him?"

The two complained and passed the time.

About half an hour, Chen Sanlang came out and walked home.

At dusk, in a shop near Chen's house, Captain Zhong listened to the report of the two officials.

“That’s all?”

The official answered quickly: "Chief, that's all. This kid stays at home and studies every day, and goes out to stairs in the martial arts hall. It's very simple."

Captain Zhong pondered silently: Reading and writing is the duty of a scholar, and there is nothing to doubt. Chen Sanlang had gone to the martial arts hall to learn martial arts and horse stance a long time ago. This matter was regarded as a joke in Jingxian County, and there was nothing to say.

At this pace, it is difficult to find valuable clues, and County Magistrate Huang was urging him to the point where he came to ask about the progress of the matter today.

Captain Zhong was upset.

An official sent a message: "Chief, just arrest people. If we are afraid that the impact is not good, we will start secretly. We have investigated cases and handled things before, but we have not done such activities. We used a scoop to pack people and put them in remote places. We can try them as much as we want."

Another official agreed and said, "Isn't it just a child? There is no big deal. If you put a little pressure on the adults, who dares to stand up?"

Captain Zhong reached out and touched his face and made a decision: "Okay, when he goes to the martial arts hall tomorrow, you will catch people. Remember, you should be in a place with few people... Well, he has to pass through an alley when he goes to the martial arts hall? It's very suitable there."

"good."

The two officials agreed happily that they could finally finish this boring and boring stalking mission.

That night, the moon was bright. Chen Sanlang sat on the edge of the well in the courtyard, but did not study. He didn't want to study tonight, he just wanted to drink.

Three glasses of wine are not large, because you have to get up early tomorrow and travel far, so you can't get drunk.

The first cup of the bright moon: the years are similar every year, but people are different every year;

The second cup of honor is to this family: born here and grown here, and honor and disgrace are all under the eaves;

The third cup of toast with red carp: half a cup of wine poured into a well, half a cup of wine entered the throat, the mermaid forgets the opportunity to share the same way, which is called a confidant.

Did it!

Crash!

The red carp seemed to feel the turbulence in Chen Sanlang's heart. The tail was shaking and the well water was churning, which echoed Saburo's mood.

Chen Sanlang seemed to be drunk...

The night passed little by little, and in the early morning, the first rooster crowed, he suddenly woke up, sat up on the bed, put on his clothes, and finished washing.

Mrs. Chen had already prepared his books, containing four treasures of the study, changing clothes, dry food and water for eating and drinking on the road, and the love of a mother.

"Yuan'er, there are ten taels of silver here... there are only so many in the family, I'm sorry for you."

"No grievance."

Chen Sanlang resisted the soreness in his eyes and only took five liang: "Five liang is enough."

He recited his books and walked out of the house - Chen Wangshi and Uncle Hua wanted to see each other off, but he firmly pushed them away.

It was still early and the streets were very deserted. Only early dealers came out to occupy space and set up stalls.

"Hey, isn't this Chen Sanlang? Where are you going early in the morning with your books on your back?"

In the house outside Chen’s house, two officials lived in it, responsible for day and night monitoring. The official officer who was on duty was beating Ah Yai. As soon as he looked up, he saw Chen Sanlang go out.

"Want to escape?"

He couldn't help but jump up and call his companion. However, another official slept like a pig, snoring, and screamed twice without reaction.

The official officer ignored his companions and quickly opened the door and rushed out.

"Ouch!"

I don’t know if it’s because I walked too fast, or I didn’t sleep in the middle of the night and was in a daze. I stumbled under my feet for no reason and fell down the steps. I was so confused that I had a stark look. I couldn’t recover from my heart.

Chen Sanlang was not in a hurry and walked slowly. When he reached the city gate, the guards were opening the city gate. There were already some people waiting to enter or leave the city. When the city gate was wide open, everyone would enter and exit in sequence.

"It hurts so much."

The official chap got up humming, feeling pain all over his body. After a little movement, the pain was so painful that his right foot was naked. It turned out that he had sprained ankle.

"unlucky!"

He spat and suddenly remembered: "The big thing is not good, let Chen Sanlang leave the city." He was about to take the initiative to chase him, but he could not walk two or three steps, and his feet hurt so much that he turned one step at a time, and he couldn't walk fast at all. When he chased him, Chen Sanlang didn't know where he was going.

I had to climb back to the room and call my companions. I couldn't wake up and slapped my hands directly into my mouth.

"Ah, who beat me?"

The official officer was finally woken up. When he heard that Chen Sanlang had escaped, he couldn't help but feel scared and sweated: "How long have you been running?"

"I guess they've all left the city now."

"No, I have to notify the captain immediately."

He ran to Captain Zhong's house.

"What, Chen Sanlang has left the city?"

Captain Zhong jumped out of the bed barefoot and put on his clothes in a hurry: "No, this kid must have gone to Nanyang Prefecture to take the college entrance examination in advance, so he can't take the exam."

No one can guarantee whether Chen Sanlang can pass the exam, but he alone cannot go to Nanyang Prefecture and will definitely not be able to get a fame.

"Hurry, prepare the horse!"

Captain Zhong was really anxious. This was a deadly mission assigned by County Magistrate Huang. If he messed up, how could he gain the trust of the adults in the future?

Get it!

The horse's hooves were running, and he couldn't even care about the rules that were not allowed to rush horses in the city.

hiss!

The horse stepped on something, but suddenly the horse fell off and fell down.

Captain Zhong was shocked. Fortunately, he had learned martial arts and did a move to avoid it. He was finally not thrown. However, the horse could not continue riding, so he had to run and chase. About half a quarter of an hour later, he finally chased the pier, but there was no figure of Chen Sanlang. Looking up, he saw a small boat sailing away, and soon turned into a small black dot and disappeared.
Chapter completed!
