Chapter 156 Taking up the post

"Haha, Fang Cheng, right? I think the name you chose is not good."

Seeing Fang Cheng angrily 'seeing off guests', Wang Gui was not angry and still had a smile on his face.

"If you don't succeed enough and fail more than you should, you should be called Fang Bai. Today I can still talk to you in a harmonious way. It will be good for everyone if you sign this document, otherwise the Yamen will investigate the illegal activities of your Fang family. ”

If you want to accuse someone, why bother? Whoever the yamen wants to punish is afraid that he will not be accused!

The county magistrate who broke up the family, and the magistrate Yin who destroyed the family.

This is not just talk, a family like the Fang family relied entirely on Fang Yue, a martial arts scholar, to rise to prominence.

The foundation is too thin, and mastering wealth that exceeds one's own status is like a child holding gold to pass the market. He didn't know how to compromise and give in. He was too sharp and offended several big families in Xiahe County.

It would be too easy to deal with his family.

"It will not look good then. Our Lord County Master hates unscrupulous businessmen the most. Last month, member Zhu from the east of the city was sentenced to hanging, and the rest of his family was also exiled."

Wang Gui smiled slightly, with a kind expression, but his tone was cold and frightening.

"You, you, the bastard of a turtle!"

When Fang Cheng saw that this person was threatening so blatantly and unscrupulously, he pointed at the other person and couldn't help but cursed.

"Come here, loosen the bones of Fang Cheng. A mud-legged guy from the country really thinks he is a master when he wears silk and satin? You can beat him as long as he doesn't kill him. I will be responsible for anything that happens!"

Wang Gui followed Liu Zheng and was treated with courtesy wherever he went. How many people in Xiahe County dare to scold him!

This Fang Cheng was destined to be ruined, and yet he dared to insult him. He was simply desperate.

Following Wang Gui's order, the two government officials next to him clenched their fists and stepped forward with grins, ready to teach Fang Cheng a lesson.

And at this time.

"Stop, what do you want to do? Who gave you the courage to do anything violent in Fang Wuju's house!"

At this moment, a familiar scolding voice came.

It was Liu Zheng, the county official of Xiahe County, who was coming quickly.

Immediately afterwards, before Wang Gui came back to his senses, he didn't know why Mr. Liu came and why he spoke like this.

Liu Zheng had already come to his side, and then the other party slapped him hard and shouted.

Wang Gui immediately felt like a gourd and rolled to the ground.

Not to mention Wang Gui, the other government officials and Fang Cheng all seemed dumbfounded at this time.

I never thought of it, how could this happen?

Did the county official Liu Zheng just take action and beat his personal butler?

"Haha, my subordinates are ignorant. Fang Yuanwai must be frightened. Don't worry, I will discipline them well when I get back." Liu Zheng ignored these people and came to Fang Cheng and said enthusiastically.

This scene made Wang Gui, who was just about to get up, even more confused.

That's not what you said before. How long has it been?

How did it become like this?

However, Wang Gui has always known that the county magistrate Liu Zheng has always been unfaithful and will never be inconsistent. This must mean that Fang Yue is not easy to offend now.

Could it be that Fang Yue has become more developed again?

Sure enough, at this time.

A burst of crackling firecrackers sounded, boom, boom, deafening.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud noise of gongs and drums, and the sound of suonas.

Immediately, I saw several government servants in bright red clothes walking into the alley playing flute.

Wang Gui was stunned immediately, and his yamen servants also stopped and looked at the unfamiliar yamen servants.

Where did these government officials come from?

Why don't you recognize me?

As for whether someone was pretending to be someone, Wang Gui did not doubt it. The laws of the Wei Dynasty were majestic, but few people dared to pretend to be officials in the city.

So where do these people come from? What do you do again?

While people were still far away, the voice of the good news came.

"Congratulations, congratulations to Mr. Fang for placing fifth in the high school examination." The yamen servant holding a red piece of paper congratulated with a smile on his face.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present except the county official Liu Zheng was stunned.

It must be said that Wang Gui has been a housekeeper for many years. Apart from Liu Zheng, he was the first one to come to his senses.

So that’s the case, no wonder Mr. Liu is like this.

However, how could that Fang Yue possibly pass the government examination?

This doesn't make sense. Is the other party's talent really that good?

As the commotion here became louder and louder, more and more people gathered.

After all, this is a major event in Xiahe County. Passing the government examination has not happened in Xiahe County for many years.

As for passing the government examination, these residents don't know. They only know that after passing the government examination, they will become an official. Maybe he is more noble than their county master.

Well, look, the county magistrate Mr. Liu is here, and he's still polite to that family.

More and more people heard the news, and more and more people gathered over. The huge group of people almost blocked the alley in front of Fang's house.

The chattering discussions were nothing more than envy, nothing more than praise and other words.

Behind him, Father Fang and Mrs. Chen were also alarmed.

This was naturally followed by a series of thanks and rewards for the officials who came to report the news.

The same thing has actually happened twice, but this time it was in the city and on a larger scale.

As for the flowing banquet that followed, it was just normal.

Of course, there are many people who learned that Fang Yue, the official of the Fang family who passed the government examination and was about to become an official, was not married yet.

They all thought about it. If they could marry the Fang family, wouldn't it be like flying up a branch and turning into a phoenix?

At that moment, there were many people with eager eyes and thoughts.

Since then, the threshold of the Fang family has changed several times, but there are too many people coming to propose marriage.

~~~~~~

More than a month later, it’s the Lunar New Year.

Winter goes to spring and another year comes.

It's sunny after the snow, and the plum trees in the yard are already dotted with pink.

In the martial arts training ground in the backyard, Fang Yue stood in a boxing stance and flipped through the booklet recording White Tiger Fist in his hand.

Check the above description carefully.

The marrow is easy to forge the bones, and the qi and blood are vigorous.

Immediately, Fang Yue put down the book, his fists moved according to his heart, his blood energy and strength naturally combined, and moved according to his thoughts.

In the courtyard, Fang Yue punched one after another, his body and mind combined with his strength and moves. His body was like a tiger, each move was majestic, fierce and domineering.

The energy and blood in the body surged like the Yangtze River, so mighty and powerful that it even made bursts of roaring sounds.

With the surge of blood energy, Fang Yue's moves became more fierce and domineering.

In the martial arts training ground, bursts of air explosion sounds continued.

After this practice, it was noon.

"Finally, Yi Marrow is completed. I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. I really want to thank the widow Yu for giving me such a precious medicine."

Fang Yue slowly drew back his strength, feeling the Qi and blood that had already been transformed into a perfect marrow.

Different from before, not only has his strength increased at this moment, it has almost reached 30,000 kilograms. My endurance has improved by leaps and bounds, and has more than doubled.

It can be said that his current combat power is not inferior to that of ordinary Qi-sensing martial arts masters. In other words, those martial arts masters who were new to Qi were no match for him at all.

After all, before, he had been able to face off against the fifth master of Tenglong Village, a serious Qi-sensing martial artist, and win the battle.

Now, he can easily defeat the opponent head-on without using a bow and arrow to consume the opponent's physical strength.

Originally, it would take him a year or two to reach the level of Yi Xu Dacheng.

But now it's only been a month, all because of what Widow Yu gave him when she sent him out of the city.

At first, I thought it was just a simple gift, but when I came back, I discovered that the package actually contained a 500-year-old blood ginseng.

Blood ginseng nourishes blood and strengthens the body. It can make his blood and energy as strong as a scourge, and his strength skyrockets.

Even more, Fang Yue discovered that after taking the secret medicine, his qualification points actually increased a lot.

Thinking of this, his eyes focused, and lines of text began to appear in front of him.

[Kung Fu: White Tiger Fist (Yi Mui) (Dacheng); Wu Tu Zhen Gong (Sense Qi) (Introduction); Qi Supporting and Health-preserving Kung Fu: (Mastered)]

[Qualification: 3760 (one in a thousand)]

[Talent: Advanced Boxing Mastery, Elementary Qi and Blood Derivatives, Advanced Copper Skin and Iron Bones, Elementary Qi Sense]

Originally, his qualification points dropped below 3,000 due to his talent in condensing Qi, but now after taking blood ginseng, his qualification points have been greatly improved, almost 900 points, which is almost three years of gains.

It was also after this time that Fang Yue realized that qualification points could also be improved through other means.

And this is all because of that blood ginseng.

After discovering this situation, Fang Yue also searched the entire Xiahe County and even several surrounding counties.

But I didn't find any such medicinal materials for sale at all.

This kind of treasure is simply too hard to find!

It will not flow to the outside market at all. Once it appears, it will definitely be monopolized by those wealthy families.

Such a precious spiritual herb was hard to find, but Widow Yu gave it to him without saying a word.

He didn't even say anything, and he didn't ask for anything in return.

Thinking of this, Fang Cheng felt a warm current in his heart and sighed in his heart.

I don’t know how to repay this kindness.

"This kindness can only be repaid later." Fang Yue murmured to himself.

Next, there is less than a month left before Fang Yue takes up his post in Wenxi County next door.

Therefore, during this time, Fang Yue also cherished the days spent with his parents and family.

~~~~~~

But he said that on this day, Liu Zheng was dealing with official business.

An unexpected guest comes to visit.

"Wei He, what you said is the truth. That Fang Yue just stepped on dog poop, got lucky, picked up a human head, and completed the task, so he got the fifth place in the imperial examination?" Liu Zheng couldn't believe it. asked.

He couldn't figure it out, how could a martial artist who had practiced martial arts for only a few years pass the government examination? And achieved such a high ranking? Overwhelming all the talented warriors of Shanyang Mansion!

This is too fantasy!

"It's absolutely true. The news came from the government office and it has been confirmed without a doubt." Wei He nodded and smiled slightly.

I see.

When Liu Zheng heard this, he felt happy. If this was the case, then he wouldn't have so many worries about dealing with Fang Yue.

However, he was cunning and cunning, and he had already guessed that since Wei He said these words, he was probably also trying to deal with Fang Yue.

However, since he couldn't be Wei He's thug, he pretended to be confused and said, "Oh, I understand. Why doesn't my nephew leave? But what else is going on?"

When Wei He saw Liu Zheng like this, he couldn't help but cursed the old fox in his heart.

However, to get rid of Fang Yue, the other party needs to take action together.

Wei He saw that the other party was pretending to be stupid, so he could only clarify his words first, cupped his hands and said:

"Sir, why is this necessary? The more disrespectful that person is to you, he is ignorant of the bounds of heaven and earth, and he is just a fool. Such a person is now stealing the official position, which is more of a disaster than a blessing for me, the great Wei Dynasty!"

"Oh, but the other party is an official from Wenxi County. I can't control the other party." Liu Zheng continued to pretend to be confused.

Although, after Fang Yue's government examination, he was not so tough for this official position.

But after all, they are court officials, formal officials, and dealing with them is not that simple.

You always have to be cautious, and many methods cannot be used.

"Your Excellency only needs to initiate a group training exercise between the two counties after he takes office, and someone will take action to deal with him then." Wei He said.

"Team training drill?" Liu Zheng frowned when he heard this.

This kind of thing is normal. The training of the reserve guard always needs to be tested.

Sometimes he is sent to suppress bandits, and sometimes he exercises with soldiers from other counties. There are precedents to follow.

If he did this, it would be considered normal. It would not violate any rules and he would not be afraid of being investigated.

"Haha, that's it. If it succeeds at this time, I will definitely be richly rewarded." Wei He smiled slightly and immediately took out a stack of banknotes and handed them over.

The latter took the check without blinking an eyebrow.

Thus, a business and a conspiracy were settled.

~~~~~~

Time flies by quickly, but in the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

"Xie'er, you have to take good care of yourself when you get there. When you have nothing to do, write more letters to home. I'll ask Tiedan to read them to me."

Mrs. Chen packed her bags and gave Fang Yue a lot of instructions.

In their family, Tiedan is now starting to grow up and is attending a private school.

To be able to read well, it would have to be Tiedan, who was much better than his father Fang Cheng.

The task of reading words and letters naturally fell on Xiao Tiedan, who was only a few years old.

"Also, after you go there, you have to do your job properly. It's cold and you should wear more clothes." Mrs. Chen continued talking.

When to eat, what time to do, everything is meticulous and meticulous.

"Mom, I understand." Fang Yue responded with a smile.

This was not the first time that Mrs. Chen had said these words to him. She would say them to him every time she traveled far away.

But he was never impatient. After all, this was Chen's care for him, love from the heart, so how could he be impatient.

Soon, Fang Yue got on the carriage and set off.

"You're a piece of wood, you just stuck it there without saying a word! I don't know when I'll come back next time when I'm going on a long journey!" Mrs. Chen looked at the carriage going away, feeling sad in her heart.

Then he turned around and saw Father Fang's "smirk", and immediately twisted his shoulder.
