Chapter 21 Murder outside the city

Damn it!

When he heard the word brothel, Wang Anshi, who had just calmed down his anger, became furious again.

What does this Chen Mo want to do?

Are you here to take part in the county examination, or are you here to make a fortune?

"Tan'er, it seems you are right. Chen Mo has treated the county examination as a child's play from the beginning and has no intention of obtaining fame at all?"

"Dad, calm down. As the saying goes, everyone has his own ambitions. If Chen Mo really means it, it's better to let him go. Don't get angry because of it."

Wang Tan'er had been immersed in two poems just now. When she came back to her senses, she felt a bit sad and regretful.

Talent cannot be concealed.

She has already determined in her heart that Chen Mo has real talent and learning, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is very talented.

However, fate plays tricks on people, and they have a heart that does not follow the right path.

dream!

Wang Anshi snorted coldly: "If Chen Mo hadn't caused these messy things, I wouldn't have taken the exam. But he made the whole academy restless and complained. He still wanted to be alone, and there was no way. The more he didn't want to

When you take a scientific examination, you have to go back to the examination room."

"What do you mean, Lord County Lord?"

Lu Hanqing also thinks that this should be the case, otherwise how will the academy be managed in the future, and where will the dignity of the people be put?

"Housekeeper Hu, go to Chen Mo and tell him that today's matter of studying scriptures and meanings will not be pursued for the time being, but that he must be present for the policy discussion tomorrow. Otherwise, both errors will be investigated at the same time."

"Yes, sir." Butler Hu took the order and went out.

"Lu Jiaoyu, you should have finished the classics and meaning test, right?" Wang Anshi raised his head and looked at the sky.

"The exam should be over." Lu Hanqing nodded.

"Go and gather all the candidates right away. I have a few words to say to them personally, so that they won't be influenced by Chen Mo, who may have their minds wandering."

"Your Majesty, please."

Lu Jiaoyu responded and led Wang Anshi away.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

The room became deserted, and Xiao Cui noticed something was wrong with Wang Tan'er.

"Tui'er, I just can't figure it out. Chen Mo obviously has great talent, why would he cut off his own path to fame?"

"Miss, you have said that everyone has their own ambitions. Maybe some people really don't like fame."

"If so, why did he develop this talent?"

Wang Tan'er said, pointing to the poem.

I have a jug of wine, which is enough to soothe the wind and dust.

Pour it all into the rivers and give it to everyone in the world.

"Housekeeper Hu said that this was Chen Mo's impromptu work. It not only gave a glimpse of his talent and skills, but also demonstrated his free and heroic character."

"Shouldn't such people should study and become officials to benefit the people of the world?"

"Miss, Cui Er thinks that maybe you can understand if you think about it from another angle." Xiao Cui frowned and said.

"What?"

"Freedom." Xiaocui said thoughtfully, "The young lady said that Chen Mo has a free and bold nature, so how can he stand the constraints of official etiquette and rules?"

"..."

After Wang Tan'er listened, she fell silent.

Xiaocui continued: "Also, if I were Chen Mo, I probably wouldn't take the path of studying and becoming an official."

"What do you mean by this?" Wang Tan'er came back to her senses.

"Miss, think about it, Chen Mo almost offended all the scholars in the world in a small county examination. If he continues to move forward, he may cause much trouble. As the saying goes, a country can easily change its nature.

It's hard to change, maybe he is self-aware, so he chooses to be wise and protect himself."

"Cui'er, where did you hear and learn these fallacies?" Wang Tan'er didn't feel that these words were right.

"Who can Cui'er learn from? It's not..."

"You damn girl, you dare to make fun of me." Wang Tan'er feigned anger and wanted to take action.

"Miss, Cui'er has one last thing to say."

"Tell me, I'll deal with you after I finish."

"Miss, since you are so interested in me, why don't you find a chance to meet me? No matter how many questions you have then, just ask them all clearly."

"Which family?"

After subconsciously responding, Wang Taner thought of Chen Mo.

For a moment, my mind started to move.

Chen Mo was not idle at this time. After leaving the brothel, he made several calculations and decided to leave the city before sunset.

When I was examining the meaning of the classics, I made such a big mistake, which made the examiner and academy professor Lu Hanqing furious. There was absolutely no possibility of further reference.

Now that the outcome has been decided, there is no need to wait for a written document, and I can go home as soon as possible and hold my wife in my arms to think about the business.

Especially for the land in Huilongwan, planning must be made immediately before construction begins.

The copper pot made by Lin Dashan also needs to be inspected as soon as possible. Mrs. Wang has already started preparations, and she must not hold back.

Baihe County is a border town. Although trade is developed and the economy is prosperous, it is ultimately at the border with the other two countries, so the city gates are closed after sunset.

Fortunately, there was still some time before the sun set. Chen Mo put the rouge box and sachet into his arms and hurried out of the city gate.

He had to speed up, otherwise he might not even be able to see the road after dark.

As he walked, Chen Mo looked back.

If you bump into an ox, horse and donkey cart on the way, you will save two blisters on the soles of your feet.

However, what he didn't know was that someone was following behind him.

"How about Ergou, Lezi? I didn't lie to you. All the money in his arms is money. Now we are going to make a fortune."

Zhao Shan dragged his lame leg and pointed at Chen Mo's back, grinning.

"Shan Zi, you are so loyal."

The bald man who spoke had several eye-catching scars on his head.

"Is your leg broken because of him?"

The dog said something and licked his tongue three times.

"That's right." Zhao Shan said through gritted teeth, "You guys take turns carrying me on your back, and we'll take a path to intercept him. We'll kill him and then divide the money equally."

"Ok, deal."

Lezi nodded, took out a kitchen knife from his arms, signaled the dog to carry Zhao Shan on his back, and walked to the side road.

"When we have the money, we must first build this road."

Last time, Chen Mo drove an ox cart to the county town and did not find the dirt road too difficult. Now he measured it with his feet and realized how difficult it was.

Several times, I almost sprained my foot.

Walking to a ditch, Chen Mo decided to take a breather.

Before I even sat down, two people jumped out from beside me.

One person held up a kitchen knife and shouted loudly: "I opened this road and planted this tree."

Another person stuck out his tongue and stammered in agreement: "If you want to, if you want to go this way, leave the money to buy it."

What, did you run into someone who was ruthless?

Chen Mo frowned, thinking about how to escape.

At this moment, another person walked out of the woods nearby.

"Chen Mo, do you still remember your Lord Shan?"

Maybe the enemy was extremely jealous when they met, and maybe Zhao Shan broke his leg in anger. Anyway, when he finished speaking, he staggered and knelt down directly in front of Chen Mo.

"Who are you, why are you so polite when we first meet?"

Chen Mo sarcastically picked up a stick beside the ditch.

Aiming at Zhao Shan's broken leg, he hit it hard.
