Rebirth of Tang Dynasty as a dad

Du Shaoqing had no choice but to give up the attack, and rushed left and right to maintain his uninjured, but he was fighting the enemy empty-handed, and the five of them were fighting for their lives, so he soon suffered a loss.

The incident in the inn stunned a group of officers and soldiers outside, and they all looked at the county magistrate Di Zhixun.

County magistrate Di was delighted, and laughed, "The thieves' nest is turned upside down, that's great, let's hold back for a while, and catch them in one fell swoop when both of them are hurt. This will also reduce the casualties of our hands."

"The county magistrate is wise, we listen to you." Everyone nodded.

The inn lobby was already in a mess because of the fighting, "Listen to my explanation, these are not people I called, stop fighting."

"Despicable villain, are you still talking sweet words? Die!"

Third Aunt Du outside the door looked at the battle here, full of worries, but she was powerless. Last time she was able to ask Li Zheng for help, this time it was the county magistrate who sent troops, who can stop it?I just hope that Da Lang can win the fight, I heard that he himself defeated the three of them yesterday.Why!My husband went out to fight again, and often went away for several days to get into the mountains and forests. It would be great if he was at home, the third aunt thought to herself.

The soldiers of the county magistrate surrounded the Yunlai Inn, and the surrounding people came to watch. Everyone was wondering what kind of trouble the Du family had caused?

Coincidentally, there were other people who arrived at this time at the same time. They were Li Zhen and Cheng Chumo from Chang'an. As a guide, I went out of Chang'an again, but this time my mood was very different.

"Huh? Why are there so many people surrounding Yunlai Inn?" Cheng Chumo asked in surprise.

"Is something wrong? Quick, go and have a look."

The fast horse galloped closer, and Cheng Chumo caught sight of the county magistrate Di Zhixun in the middle of the crowd, and shouted, "Magistrate Di, what happened? Why did you surround the inn?"

Before the county magistrate could answer, Li Zhen who was next to him had already seen Du Shaoqing who was fighting with five people inside. Li Zhen was furious instantly, "How dare you bully the few with more? Brother Du, don't panic, Li Zhen is here too! "

Turning over and dismounting, he directly pulled out the saber from his waist, quickly walked past the surrounding government servants, and rushed directly into the inn to join the battle group.

"Xiaozhen wait for me, how can I be missing from the fight."

Seeing that Cheng Chumo was about to put himself in danger, Di Zhixun exclaimed: "Young master, be careful, the other party is a famous bandit."

Du Shaoqing saw that there were acquaintances participating in the battle, and both of them were from a family of generals, so he quickly reminded: "Don't hurt their lives, just capture them."

The two met, so the situation of the battle changed again, from one against five to three against five. Among the bandits, there were two disabled with broken arms, so the outcome can be imagined. Without twenty moves, five bandits After being knocked down one after another, Du Shaoqing finally breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, at this time, Li Zhen and Li Zhen's arrival was a timely help, and it was easy to explain to the county magistrate.

For this kind of official style, these two second-generation officials are better than the woman in red.Du Shaoqing didn't know Zhang Chuchen's identity. If he knew that the other party was Yipin Gaoming's wife, he probably wouldn't say so.

"My lord, someone reported that this inn is a den of thieves. Du Shaoqing, the shopkeeper, is harboring five bandits. The evidence is convincing. Just now, they coaxed in private. Don't be fooled by the villains." The county magistrate stepped forward and reminded.

Li Zhen was furious: "Nonsense, brother Du's family background is clear to me, how could he collude with bandits? Could it be that you, the county magistrate, also fell in love with his secret recipe for making money?"

Cheng Chu acquiesced to the magistrate, so he stood up and reminded: "Magistrate Di, this is the victim who was bullied by your Wang Xiancheng last time, and he was the hero who presented the secret recipe of steamed buns to the court. His Majesty rewarded him personally. You said that he colluded with bandits, is there some misunderstanding?"

No matter how dull Di Zhixun was, he could already hear such an obvious warning. After serving as an official for so many years, he immediately woke up. Again.

"Oh, so that's the case. It's really a misunderstanding. The official also heard a report from someone. The man's name is Huang Shengcai. It is said that he is an aborigine in the town. It seems that this person deceived the official by treachery." Di Zhixun Quickly changed his mind.

who?Huang Shengcai?Hearing this name, everyone present except the county magistrate understood.

Cheng Chumo snorted coldly and said, "Do you know who Huang Shengcai is? He is the brother-in-law of your county magistrate Wang. He was a part of the evil that Wang Xiancheng did last time. How dare you listen to his instigation to arrest people? You Can the magistrate be able to tell right from wrong?"

Being taught by Cheng Chumo, Di Zhixun felt very embarrassed. If he had known that Huang had this identity, why would he be so impulsive?Now it's over, not only did he not make any meritorious service, but he also offended the heirs of the two princes, and his official career became even more uncertain.

"Not only that, Huang Shengcai also bribed the bandits on Tiger Mountain a few days ago to kill my family, those people on the ground."

Afterwards, Du Shaoqing told the whole story of the incident. After hearing this, everyone was extremely resentful. This person surnamed Huang was really nothing.

County Magistrate Di scolded: "It turns out that this guy is a thief calling for a thief. Don't worry, shopkeeper Du. Now that the matter is clear, I will go back right away. I will definitely find this person named Huang and bring him to justice. Such a malignant tumor." We can't leave him in Zheng County's disaster township."

"Then about the prostitution of my buddies?" Du Shaoqing reminded.

"It's a trivial matter. With so many people present as testimonies, it's a credit to Shopkeeper Du's ability to accept the bandits and make them reform. I'll send someone over to register them with household registration later on."

After finishing speaking, Di Zhixun quickly left with his men and horses. After a long time of fuss, he was used by others and almost made a big mistake. It is not suitable to stay here anymore.

Inside the Yunlai Inn, the five bandits got up from the ground and looked at Du Shaoqing in embarrassment, feeling a little embarrassed. If it wasn't for the kindness of the host who made people merciful, the five of them would have been decapitated by now.

"What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and do something in the back, don't you see that we have guests here?" Du Shaoqing reprimanded on purpose.

Several people nodded quickly as if they were amnesty, and one by one rushed to work in the back. After this incident, the bandits gradually stopped hating the shopkeeper so much.

Chapter 25 The Two Frightened Young Masters

After the county magistrate left, Du Shaoqing let Li Zhen and his party into the back house of the inn, and left the outside lobby for five guys to clean up. They were beaten up like this, and they probably won't be able to open for a day or two.

"You guys chat first, I'll go find something to eat, I set off from the post station early in the morning, and I'm almost starved to death by now." Cheng Chumo said and walked to the inn kitchen.

"Let Shaoming take you to find something to eat." Du Shaoqing shouted.

"No, I'm familiar with you here." Cheng Chumo waved his hand without turning his head.

In the living room of the back house here, Li Zhen came in with another person in official uniform, "Brother Du, a few days ago, Xiao Mo and I reported the fact that you donated the secret recipe of steamed buns to Your Majesty, and His Majesty said on the spot that you will be rewarded." 1000 taels of silver, no, we have already brought it for you."

Du Shaoqing, who was coming over with a teapot to pour boiling water for the two of them, almost lost his footing, opened his eyes wide in surprise and said, "How much? 1000 taels?"

Seeing this performance, the officer next to him frowned slightly, but did not speak. Li Zhen nodded and said, "That's right, Your Majesty said that patriotic people should not be treated badly, and the hearts of the meritorious people should be chilled, so this time you must Accept it, or it will be a rebellion."

Du Shaoqing laughed and said: "Accept, why not accept, our family is poor enough to sell the house, how can I swell my face and pretend to be fat again."

This sentence made the officials next to Du Shaoqing's opinion lower. He didn't know that it was because Li Zhen and Du Shaoqing were familiar with each other, and they just spoke casually.

"Also, His Majesty heard that you are a talent, so he specially approved you to have the opportunity to enroll in the Imperial College and contribute to the country in the future.

This is the Chief Registrar Song of the Guozijian sent by His Majesty to assess your knowledge. You have to perform well. After passing the assessment, you will be able to study at the Guozijian. Your future will be bright. "Li Zhen introduced here.

Du Shaoqing was shocked again, a little confused: "Enroll in Guozijian? Doesn't that mean you're going to Chang'an? Brother Li, is there some misunderstanding? I'm already this age, and I still have to go to school?"

The Master Song snorted coldly: "What? You are still unwilling? Could it be that you look down on our Guozijian? I know that you have failed the ranking three times, but if it is because of this that you feel slack or resentful, then your character is not good.

Your majesty's gift is to give you the opportunity to contribute to the country in the future. Such an opportunity, no poor student in the world can't get it without a squeeze. It's good for you, why don't you want to go?

I think you are only in your twenties, why don't you have to go to school?Kong Yingda, who offered sacrifices to the Imperial College, is still working tirelessly in his sixtieth year. How can you, a child, have the ability to speak up without shame? "

Being reprimanded by this person, Du Shaoqing's originally good mood became particularly bad. He forgot that this is ancient times, and education is different from modern times. There are many poor people, and it is definitely a common phenomenon to enter school at the age of 20.

But when he was suddenly told to move to Chang'an to study, Du Shaoqing never thought about it. After all, he dragged his family and had a daughter to raise, and he had no interest in learning those classics, righteousness and Confucianism.

Li Zhen next to him tried to smooth things over and said, "Master Song, please don't misunderstand. I'm afraid Brother Du was agitated for a while. His patriotism is still admirable, and he will never have any other intentions. You should talk about business and start the assessment." Well, you'll know if it's successful or not after taking his knowledge test."

The man nodded and didn't bother anymore, so he said: "The Guozijian now has five subjects: Guozixue, Taixue, Simenxue, Calligraphy, and Mathematical Sciences. I will take the exams one by one. As long as you can pass One of them is considered to be passed.

Guozixue mainly studies the Five Classics, you first memorize two chapters from the Spring and Autumn Period. "

Du Shaoqing really wanted to scold her, where did this thing come from, what kind of big garlic?I don't want to go to Chang'an at all, okay, and if you ask these questions about classics and history, I have to be able to answer them.

Not to mention how Du Shaoqing accepted the assessment in the living room, let's talk about Cheng Chumo who just went out to find something to eat.

Now that the inn has reopened, they eat more than just white steamed buns. In the morning, Du Shaoqing also fried two side dishes, leaving some for Zhang Chuchen who was drunk and put them in a bowl in the kitchen. so fragrant?I have never seen this kind of dish before, and my eyes lit up after I tasted it, it was delicious.
