The few people who went to the provincial capital to accompany the exam that year had agreed to speak with one voice.
The fourth brother was just greedy and wanted to pick the herb in exchange for money.
No one has pursued the matter for so many years, but I didn't expect it to become such a big deal as soon as it happened.
Seeing that Zhao Yan did not come forward to protect them, the three members of the Zhao family immediately panicked and completely forgot the agreement they had made that year.
It is true that Zhao Laosi went to collect herbs, and it is also true that he fell off the mountain.
The only difference was that Zhao Yan asked his fourth uncle to pick the rare herb.
Although he passed the imperial examination at a young age, he came from a humble background and had nothing good to give as gifts.
After seeing the herb, Zhao Yan became greedy, which eventually led to the tragedy.
The four of them were in court, and it was obvious that the odds were three to one.
Zhao Yan stood aside in a respectable manner, while the other three knelt on the other side with disheveled and haggard faces.
A heated debate began, and Zhao Yan tried to argue with his relatives and get himself out of the situation.
Both sides insisted on their own opinions and could not reach a consensus.
The county magistrate was quite troubled.
In fact, even if what the three Zhao family members said was true, Zhao Yan could not be sentenced. At most, he would be asked to pay some compensation.
A poor man has low aspirations, and a thin horse has long hair. Do honest poor people deserve to be bullied?
Zhao Xun felt sad. Tiezhu asked him to stay in the county town because he couldn't help with finding the corpse.
It was getting late, and Tiezhu was staying here.
Han Zeyu was not afraid of the autumn wind and darkness, and ran back to the city to reunite with his family.
Han Zecang came back before him, and he had completed another step in his lifelong event, and was not far from the final victory.
Han Zeyu looked at his silly brother studying hard and couldn't help but cheer him up.
"Even though you failed the exam this year, you will most likely still fail the autumn exam three years from now."
"Although Lin Xue doesn't mind you being poor and useless, you really are not worthy of her wealth and status."
"Although I know you're doing useless work, I really want to say that you're really useless."
Han Zecang was in tears. Was he really that bad?
He will definitely pass the imperial examination before he turns thirty.
Han Yumo floated past him and said softly, "Second brother, please make sure you pass the imperial examination before you turn twenty-six."
Han Zecang was curious, why was age still a concern?
He is twenty years old this year and can take the exam three more times before the time limit proposed by my younger sister.
This time it is definitely invalid, but I can look forward to the autumn examination when I am 23 years old.
At worst, there is still the one when I am 26 years old. If nothing goes wrong, I will definitely pass.
Han Yumo ate the cake painted by her second brother and prepared to leave with satisfaction
Han Zeyu counted on his fingers and brought the little girl back.
Three years later, Han Yumo will be sixteen years old, and six years later, she will be nineteen years old.
She was afraid that Han Zecang was progressing too slowly and would not be able to support her.
"You'll be coming of age in two years, so don't fall in love too soon. If I discover any signs of this, I'll immediately confiscate your little stash. That's called revoking a gift."
Han Yumo was confused. Why would they retreat?
She wants to focus on her career and not indulge in love affairs.
Han Zecang stood in awe, he was indeed his elder brother, the big devil could always accurately step on every lifeline of us mortals.
Learn! Learn!
The sea of learning is endless and the journey is hard. Just as sharpening the sword before the battle is beneficial, even if it is not quick, it is still beneficial.
At noon the next day, Tiezhu rode at full speed with the two of them to the scene of the incident.
Han Zeyu was wielding a sickle, with a thick hemp rope tied around his waist and a backpack on his back. He was ready to descend the mountain.
The slope of the mountain on this side is about seventy-five degrees, which looks quite steep.
This hellish level of difficulty can only be accomplished by Han Zeyu himself. Tiezhu felt dizzy just by looking at it.
"Master, thank you for your hard work. It doesn't matter whether you can find it or not, you must come back alive! I'm sorry, but the iron pillar is useless."
Han Zeyu kicked him and said, "Stop crying. I can't die!"
Tiezhu nodded. His master had extraordinary skills. What could a mere cliff do to him?
"Master, you can go without any worries! We two will definitely take care of you in your old age."
"Zhao Xun hasn't married you yet! Don't be so mean!"
Han Zeyu thought Tiezhu's words were unlucky, so he kicked him again and walked down the mountain without looking back.
As expected, the air in the mountains is better, and the energy in the soil is fascinating.
Han Zeyu absorbed the energy as he walked down the mountain. He felt extremely energetic and even found time to transfer the overflowing energy into the jade.
The two broken stones had never eaten such a full meal since they followed Han Zeyu.
This mountain looks steep, but its actual height is less than a kilometer.
Han Zeyu estimated the location of the fall and drew a range.
After searching for half an hour, he finally found a relatively complete skeleton.
It's not entirely true to say it's a skeleton. Perhaps because the temperature at the foot of the mountain is lower, the body hasn't completely turned into bones even after nine years.
From the torn and faded fragments of clothes, it was confirmed that this was Zhao Laosi wearing black pants and a brown top.
After taking out a sack and putting the bones in it, Han Zeyu was not in a hurry to leave.
After absorbing the rare abundant energy, Han Zeyu sighed comfortably.
This trip was not in vain, he could already vaguely touch the supernatural barrier.
Tiezhu was waiting anxiously on top, turning around to the edge of the cliff from time to time, but then retreating because he couldn't overcome his fear.
The two people who came up to point out the situation at the scene were not having a good time either. Tiezhu kicked them while cursing at them because he was unhappy.
Finally, amidst echoing screams, Han Zeyu climbed up with a sack on his back.
Tiezhu overcame his fear and tried to pull people, but Han Zeyu handed him the backpack and told him to hold it and not drop it.
Tiezhu felt sad. He had misunderstood his master. His master treated the corpse with such respect.
Tiezhu was moved and said, "Everyone's final destination is to turn into a pile of dry bones. My father-in-law is so miserable. He is so light and fluttery, he doesn't have much weight. Father-in-law, you have suffered a lot."
Han Zeyu climbed up, looked at Tiezhu strangely, took off the sack behind him, and handed it to Tiezhu solemnly.
"Take it! This is your father-in-law. You were crying at the wrong grave."
Tiezhu took the sack and said depressedly, "What's in the backpack?"
Han Zeyu said obsessedly: "That's the Polygonatum odoratum I picked from the cliffs. It is said to have the effect of prolonging life. It's a panacea!"
Iron Pillar...
His master's character has remained unchanged for thousands of years, which is unmatched.
