"How dare you Han Family Academy, a mere country boy dare to steal students from our county school!"
Mr. Wu from the county school walked around the hall angrily.
The boy responsible for inquiring about the information was hunched over with fear and could not even take a deep breath.
After a long time, Master Wu suddenly slapped his hand on the table.
"Chief Liu Shan asked me to be responsible for recruiting this year's students, and the recruitment was like this. How should I explain to Chief Liu Shan? Come on, let's go back to the Han family school and sue the county government. They are worth a mountain villager. It’s impossible to go against Tangtang County School.”
After Master Wu finished shouting, he immediately ran to Chief Liu Shan to complain.
In just half a day, the county government's coffin officer sent someone to Linshui Village.
Zhan Qingyue and Han Yiyun went to the county government together.
When he stood in the courtroom, the county magistrate was stunned on the spot.
He wiped his eyes vigorously to make sure that he had done nothing wrong. Then he walked down the high platform tremblingly and came to Han Yiyun. He was about to bow and salute, but Han Yiyun stopped him with a look.
The county magistrate was also smart. He didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. Instead, he stood in front of both parties and began to examine the case.
"Chief Liu Shan, Master Wu, you two are both well-known and well-known. You should know that when it comes to learning, you naturally choose a good tree to live in. Since the people around you think that Master Han teaches well."
"It's just what one person says. Many people say that even if you think about it, you can't lie. It's just an official's opinion. Why don't you two review the mistakes that have been made on your head and come to me to ask for an answer?" statement."
Liu Shan and Master Wu looked at each other and were dumbfounded.
It wasn't like that just now, why did it change in the blink of an eye?
Master Wu's expression was extremely ugly. He quickly saluted the county magistrate and said, "Sir, I wish I could see clearly. It is clearly this Master Han who has robbed the county school of students."
The county magistrate glanced over with a sharp look.
Master Wu was stunned for a moment, realizing that what he just said was correct.
But he saw that the county magistrate had already put on a serious face, pursed his lips tightly, and his voice suddenly became louder.
"Master Wu, don't you understand what I am saying? Fortunately, you are also a scholar, so why can't you understand this?"
"I specially called you both in front of the hall, just to make you understand that when it comes to learning, those who are capable have to work harder. Master Han sees things more clearly than you do, so you'd better study hard."
The farce ended quickly due to the favoritism of the county magistrate.
Master Wu and Principal Liu Shan from the county school looked at the county magistrate's verdict with bewildered expressions. They were forced to copy the Tao Te Ching a hundred times. Isn't this a joke?
Even though the two of them were extremely dissatisfied, they did not dare to explode in front of the county magistrate, so they had to suffer the loss of being dumb.
After Zhan Qingyue and Han Yiyun left, the county magistrate couldn't wait to return to the backyard and said to the boy who was waiting beside him: "Hurry and prepare the bundles for me. I will send our family to the Han Family School tomorrow." go."
The boy didn't quite understand: "Sir, is the Han Academy really that powerful?"
The county magistrate nodded solemnly: "That's natural."
He had recognized the right person just now. Han Yiyun and he were candidates of the same class. Back then, he asked for betrothal to the county magistrate in the palace, and then asked himself to guard the border, which made many people admire him.
He had seen them clearly back then. How could he have seen them wrong as they were riding a tall horse all the way down the street.
Han Yiyun, who was walking back to the village, said the same thing to Zhan Qingyue.
"Husband, you said that the county magistrate was a candidate in the same class as you, so his behavior just now clearly meant that he recognized you."
Han Yiyun nodded with a sad face.
"That's right. I'm just worried that he will reveal the whereabouts of the two of us. It's been hard to live a quiet life for two days. If those people in the capital find out, there will be no quiet life left."
Zhan Qingyue sighed helplessly, it seemed that he had to think of a way to do it.
As the two of them walked, Zhan Qingyue suddenly smelled the aroma of food coming from the restaurant next to her.
Zhan Qingyue's eyes lit up.
"Yes! Let's treat the county magistrate to a meal. I will cook it myself. As the saying goes, a cannibal has a short mouth. If the county magistrate eats my food, he will definitely not do anything to stir up trouble again."
Han Yiyun pursed his lips and smiled.
"Yueyue, your proposal is okay. Let's get ready when we get back."
The two of them arrived at Linshui Village first, and then the county magistrate took his son Gongsun Ming to Linshui Village.
The Han Family Academy is very famous in Linshui Village. When they entered the village and asked about it, they were immediately ushered into the village by interested people.
When they arrived at the Han Family Academy, Han Yiyun no longer concealed anything and started to be polite to the county magistrate.
Seeing his attitude, Gongsun Lang didn't understand anything.
"Since Mr. Gongsun can't come, let's have a simple meal."
Zhan Qingyue was wearing an apron and enthusiastically came out to invite Gongsun Lang and the three of them.
When they arrived at the table, Zhan Qingyue and Han Yiyun got straight to the point: "I would like to thank Mr. Gongsun for his help in what happened at the Yamen today."
Facing the two people's enthusiastic toasts, Gongsun Lang did not refuse and couldn't help but talk about the scene when he was parading in the capital.
"Mr. Han was the number one scholar of our class at the time. He really made many people envious of him."
"Mr. Gongsun is not bad at all. He is willing to work with the herdsmen on this seaside. The place is well managed and the people live and work in peace and contentment. It is also a geomantic treasure land."
The county magistrate laughed dryly, and the two of them did not continue the topic. Instead, they unanimously picked up the wine glasses and tasted the wine in the glasses.
After drinking for three rounds, Zhan Qingyue finally got down to business.
"Mr. Gongsun, I hope Mr. Gongsun can help us keep it a secret regarding our stay in Linshui Village."
Zhan Qingyue smiled bitterly and looked at Han Yiyun with a doting look on her face.
"You also know that things in the DPRK are changing rapidly and cannot be solved overnight. Now Han Yiyun and I are far away from the disputes between right and wrong, looking for a paradise and living our own small lives."
Gongsun Lang looked at the two of them with smiling eyes, and raised his wine glass unconsciously.
"It's easy to talk about. If Mr. Han can give some advice on the herdsmen's side, I would be very grateful."
People in this world are all interested in dealing with each other. If there is no profit motive, how can we have a good relationship?
Both parties unanimously reached a consensus on this agreement.
Han Yiyun also began to talk about his experience as an official over the years.
Gongsun Lang was so enlightened that when he walked out of the Han family, he was still thinking about the conversation at the wine table. He wished he could apply these experiences to this place immediately.
