Hanxiang   http://www./0_56/  Ji and 2 new book "Hanxiang"!  Chapter 6  The road is under your feet

I successfully arrived at the village chief’s house. With Liu Yuan following him, the village chief did not dare to stop the scholar from outside the door, so he had to invite them into the gate against his will and go to the side hall.

With Liu Yuan's light, the Shen family and his son were finally lucky enough to see the village chief's house. Although it was in the deep mountains, it was already considered a villa!

There is a hot spring under the house. When a few people enter the door, they feel warm as spring. Looking at the rockery pavilions, the flowing water on the bridges, and the smoke rising, it is really hard to believe that there is such a fairy palace in their village.

Liu Yuan's face became less and less beautiful. He usually couldn't stand what the village chief did, but he was here to escape from the world and should not meddle in other people's business.

Later, when he saw the villagers' grievances and anger, he wanted to extend his hand, but he was a scholar and did not have to pay taxes, so he didn't know how much Xie Lin was greedy and had no way to deal with it. Now when he saw it, he understood everything.

A small village official actually lives better than a seventh-rank county official. If Xiping County Master knew about it, he would not take his head off! The villagers would not blame him for calling him "Xie Laogui".

The Shen family father and son put their butts on the stool in a hurry, looking around with a marvelous look, looking simple and innocent. When the maid came to serve tea, she stood up at a loss and blushed before taking it.

Liu Yuan saw it and was angry. He thought that it was already a big deal to pay the Shen family five taels of silver, but now he felt that it was too cheap for him.

Seeing Liu Yuan's expression change, Shen Kang took the initiative to step forward, while pretending to be unclear and looking at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the main hall wall, he asked ignorantly: "Uncle Liu, this painting is so beautiful, how much is it worth!"

Liu Yuan said angrily: "That is the original work of Wu Daozi, a painting saint of the Tang Dynasty. How can you buy it without three or five hundred taels!"

"Three or five hundred taels? Such a piece of paper is worth so much? How much does it cost to pile up so many paintings together? I will learn to draw in the future."

Liu Yuan didn't make a fuss, and he didn't want to interfere with Shen Kang's bastard words. He picked up the teacup and felt disgusted again. He put it back on the small table with a "bang".

At this moment, the village chief came back with a smile and handed a cloth bag to Shen Cheng. Shen Cheng stood up hurriedly, rubbed his hand hard on his body, bent down and lowered his head and took it.

"There is not that much silver at home for a while, so I just collected it. There are some scattered silver with copper coins. Five taels are definitely enough."

This is naturally directed at Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan stood up with a "teng" and looked at Shen Cheng with his eyes down, saying, "Please pack the money, let's go!"

"Uncle Liu's family asked first!" Shen Kang gave in politely. Liu Yuan didn't want to stay for a moment, so he raised his legs and walked out. Shen Cheng hurriedly stood up and followed him out.

Shen Kang looked at Shen Chang and asked, "Second brother, is the tea delicious?"

"Okay, delicious." Shen Chang smiled honestly.

Shen Kang smiled and picked up his teacup, slowly blew the heat, and then drank the teacup in one sip, licking the teacup in a slight sense, raised his lips and smiled and showed eight white and neat little teeth, and said in a childish voice: "You know, my sister works in a wealthy family in the county and knows a few good sisters. Tomorrow, my father will take me to the county to see my elder sister. As for me, I will meet her friends with her and say what happened today without missing a word. Do you understand?"

When Xie Jing saw him licking the teacup, he felt disgusted and thought that he would have to break this set of teacup later to bury it deep in order to relieve his anger!

After hearing what Chen Kang said, he was slightly stunned: "What do you understand?"

Chen Kang put down the teacup and walked to Chen Chang, and said with a bright look: "It is said that parents are the first teacher of their children. If they can raise them well, then the child will probably be able to become a talented person. At least they can be a kind person. If they don't do it well, the child will also learn from their parents' ways of dealing with people. If this is the case, it's better not to have children! I have no obligation to explain the rest to you, so you can think about it slowly."

Chen Chang learned from Chen Kang's appearance and refused to eat it at all. He drank the tea cleanly, but he didn't lick the tea cup. The two brothers walked out happily.

"I understand...what do you understand?" The village chief frowned and kept muttering to himself.

Suddenly, a light of inspiration flashed by, telling others about this. If their family was a little surprised, the spearhead would be directed at him!

"Little thief!" Xie Jing waved his hand and threw the teacup on the ground and smashed it. At this moment, he not only could not touch the Shen family, but also prayed that they would live a prosperous life. If something really happened, not to mention others, Liu Yuan...

Then, he squinted his eyes and smiled.

Chen San didn't understand, and did not understand his interests. Even the Xiping County Master would not dare to turn against him easily. He didn't understand that the only dead people in this world would not ask for justice.

Still a child after all.

Xie Lin put medicine on his face, and knew that he had made a mistake, so he came to the main hall timidly. When Xie Jing broke the teacup, he was so scared that he trembled all over and subconsciously wanted to escape, and then he bravely stepped forward to comfort him: "Dad..."

Hearing Xie Lin's voice, Xie Jing shook his hand and slapped: "Shengmenxing! You will cause trouble!"

"Ah...wow!" Xie Lin was not prepared, and the beating hurt so much. He started to cry immediately. The village chief's wife rushed over when she heard Xie Lin's crying and cursed, "If you don't like it, you will hit the child. If you have the ability, you will hit me!"

Let’s talk about Chen Cheng and his son who sent Liu Yuan home, and the father and son walked to the doctor’s house in the village with their own thoughts.

This is a strange era, an era where everything is inferior but only high school education. If you serve the people and business throughout your life, even if you do the imperial merchants, you will be bullied by officials.

He wants to live with dignity and hope for the future. Then he cannot serve the people and business, and pursue a career in the officialdom?

But he knew that the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was about to usher in a bloody storm.

Calculate the time, after the Chinese New Year, the 20th year of Jiajing. In August of that year, the famous Xia Yanxia Prime Minister, who was famous for ancient and modern times, retired for the second time. Xia Yan entered and left the cabinet four times, giving Yan Song the opportunity to be charmed. It was not until the 27th year that Yan Song joined forces with the official Fang Shi to frame Xia Yan and died, and he truly took the position of Chief Minister of the cabinet and began the decline of the Ming Dynasty.

In October of the 21st year, Emperor Jiajing, who was addicted to practicing Taoism, would be murdered by more than a dozen palace maids including Yang Jinying. Because of this murder, Emperor Jiajing felt afraid of moving out of the inner court and no longer attending court, which accelerated the decline of the Ming Dynasty.

Officials protect each other, corruption became a trend. The Ming Dynasty was like an old man whose internal organs were gradually corrupted. Around this old man, there were even Japanese in the north, Mongolia and the south, waiting for the best opportunity to ate his flesh and blood.

He held his hands tightly, knowing the direction of the future, but was powerless. How sad is this?

If he had come through a few years earlier or a few years later, he wouldn't have thought about this at all, but now?

It’s not that he watched coldly, he really couldn’t get enough!
