The journey of the only child of a peasant family to take the imperial examination

Many things are irreversible once the arrow is shot. If you want to fight back, you have to completely eliminate the trouble forever. On the first day when the bullying trio came to find him, Zhang Pingan started to make plans. He took action when the relationship between the two parties was not particularly strained, so that he would be less suspected.

Of course, the best way to kill someone without making any noise is to use poison.

Zhang Ping'an found out that these people were not the type to cultivate their moral character. On their days off, they would usually go to brothels together to have fun. It was said that they would occasionally spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to find the top prostitute. There were also many cases of them competing with other young masters for love, and it was easy to find out.

It just so happened that he still had some unused poison that Doctor Fu had given him. Both medicines needed to be taken at the same time to be effective and avoid accidental injuries.

However, that medicine was too strong. Once the second poison was applied, one would immediately vomit blood and die, just like those robbers before.

So you have to control the portion well, don’t die so quickly!

Late March is the time for hatching chicks. Xu had mentioned it several times at home and wanted to ask Li to go buy some chicks together to raise them, but she was always busy and didn't have time.

So on the day he was approached by the three men, Zhang Ping'an went to the market after school and bought more than 20 chicks. He would catch two chicks every day to test the quantity, and then burn them and bury them in the yard.

On the sixth day, when the chicks didn't die so quickly and their deaths weren't so tragic, Zhang Ping'an knew that this was about the right dosage, and if used on humans, the symptoms would only be milder.

Mrs. Xu was not very good at raising chickens, so she considered it a very good survival rate of half of the chicks. This matter did not arouse suspicion from anyone in the family.

It is extremely easy to poison food and drinks in the provincial school. There are only thieves who can steal for a thousand days, but no one can guard against thieves for a thousand days. There are so many people in the cafeteria and no matter how skilled the chef is, his skills are limited.

The food for these people is taken care of by the servants. There are special recipes handed over to the small kitchen every day. They also have to make a pot of good tea, which is all mountain spring water specially transported from outside the city. It is not easy to poison these two places, so they can only start with the rice that all students eat. There are only a few kinds of rice, and the kitchen does not only make it.

Two days before the holiday, Zhang Ping'an was the first one to rush to the cafeteria after class at noon. Just in time when the servants were about to come to get food, he sprinkled the medicine powder under his fingernails on the spatula. There was not much, and it was all white, without any peculiar smell. The spatula was covered with rice grains, making it difficult to be noticed.

In addition, he guessed that the few people who went to the brothel must have done some strenuous exercise to speed up blood circulation, so it was normal for them to fall down at this time.

If they don't die, it can only be said that they are lucky, and he still has the next step.

Fortunately it’s not that troublesome.

The trouble was solved, and in such an undignified way, Zhang Pingan felt very happy.

It is one thing for a man to be romantic, but it is another thing if his romantic behavior leads to death!

I heard that the families of the two men had even gone to the brothel to cause trouble, but as the largest brothel in Lin'an City and a famous den of money-losing, there must be a big background behind it, so the matter was eventually left unresolved!

After a few days, everyone in Class A quickly forgot about those people and stopped talking about it.

Zhang Pingan can now study with peace of mind.

In a blink of an eye, it was mid-April, the day when the results of the military examination for my elder brother-in-law and Xiao Yifei were announced.

With the experience of taking the county exam last time, Liu Sanlang suddenly felt that taking the military exam was not that scary. It turned out that many people were quite weak at it, but now his confidence has increased.

Butcher Liu is already gearing up to prepare the celebratory banquet.

Zhang Pingan thought about whether he was on the list or not, and rushed home immediately after class.

As soon as I entered the alley, I ran into Donkey Egg, Cat Egg, and a few new friends. They were playing in the alley on bamboo poles. Donkey Egg patted his chest proudly and said, "You all have to listen to me. Let me be the general. I'm the tallest and the strongest. Besides, my father is a martial arts boy now. He will be a martial arts scholar in the future. He's more powerful than your fathers. If you follow me, you will definitely have a good life in the future!"

Maodan was depressed: "Brother, you are the general, then what should I be? I want to be a general too!"

Donkey Egg scratched his head and patted his brother's shoulder: "Then I will appoint you as my deputy general, or vanguard, you can choose one!"

As soon as he finished speaking, seeing Zhang Ping'an come in, Donkey Egg immediately stopped playing with his childhood sweetheart and rushed forward excitedly, "Uncle, uncle, let me tell you, my dad passed the exam and is now a martial arts student. My mother said that once he passes the college entrance examination, he will be a scholar like you and will be exempt from taxes and labor service!"

"You're almost as tall as me, so keep your voice down. I'm not deaf, but you've made my ears numb," Zhang Ping'an said with a smile, rubbing the back of his nephew's head.

"Hehe," Donkey Egg chuckled happily twice.

Maodaner also ran over and said happily, "Uncle, my mother made a lot of delicious food today. She said we'll have dinner after you come back. I can't wait!"

"I'm back now. I'll pick up a piece of good meat for you later," Zhang Pingan said happily.

After following my two nephews to Liu's house, I found that most people were there. The small courtyard was so small that there was almost no room for everyone to stand. It was very lively.

Daya smiled and said, "Ping'an, sit next to our father. There are many people here today, so the yard is a bit crowded. Please make do with it!"

Butcher Liu's mouth had been grinning non-stop since the arrival of the man who brought the good news. He was so overjoyed that his teeth were showing. He greeted everyone enthusiastically, "Everyone, please sit down. We'll just have to make do today. If Sanlang is lucky enough to pass the imperial examination in August and become a scholar, I'll treat everyone to a nice meal at a restaurant outside!"

Zhang Laoda jokingly said, "Old Liu, I've made a note of that!"

Zhang Laosan also agreed with a smile: "I remember it too!"
