Chapter 014 Lumen Disciples (2) ()

There was a very strange pattern on the carriage that Sima Hui gave to Cao Peng.

It is the shape of a bamboo slip, marked with the word "Shangshu". At first, Cao Peng didn't know what the symbol meant. Later, when he passed by Tanghe Town, a scholar told him that it was the symbol of the Pang family in Lumen Mountain. The Pang family's three generations were famous for their "Shangshu". By the time Pang Ji's generation, his understanding of the Shangshu was the leader of the entire Jingzhou and was unparalleled.

It is precisely for this reason that the scholars of Jingxiang respectfully called Pang Ji "Shu Pang Shangshu".

This is not the Shangshu of the Three Provinces and Six Ministry, but the respect of the Pang family by the scholars of Jingxiang also means that they are experts in the Shangshu.

Wang Meng didn't understand what Cao Peng meant, but Cao Peng said that he was full of confidence. In addition, he admired Cao Peng so much that he did not ask any questions anymore, urging his horse to go to the county government. On the way here, Cao Peng had already asked Miss Hong about the location of the county government government. So Wang Meng didn't take much effort to drive the carriage and stop directly at the entrance of the county government government in Jiyang County.

"Please also inform me that Cao Peng, a disciple of Lumen Mountain, asked for a meeting!"

The county government gate was closed, and there seemed to be no one inside.

However, after Wang Meng shouted loudly, a commotion came from behind the gate.

Immediately afterwards, the door opened and a man who looked like a housekeeper came out of it. "Dare you ask, is it a Pang disciple of Lumenshan?"

There are many aristocratic tribes in Jingxiang, which are different from the Jiangdong tribes.

The so-called aristocratic families mostly have a long historical heritage and have a high status; while the aristocratic families are compared with the poor commoners.

The Kuai family is a aristocratic family!

The Deng family is just a gentry...

There is a huge difference between this word.

The aristocratic families are prominent families with reputations throughout the court and the country.

The gentry only appeared in groups that were relatively noble than the common people and enjoyed certain privileges.

If it was in Jiangdong, the aristocratic clans would have a certain amount of private armed forces due to the mixed relationship between the people and the barbarians. However, in Jingxiang, such private armed forces would be relatively weak. Under the rule of Jingzhou, there were not many aristocratic families that could be compared with the Kuai family... For example, the Cai family and the Pang family could all be stalemate with the Kuai family. Moreover, these aristocratic families have mixed relationships and are extremely close.

Kuai Zheng is a side branch of the Kuai family.

The reason why the family was able to serve as the county magistrate of Jiyang County was because of the fact that the family made efforts behind the scenes.

Upon hearing that the Lumen disciples came to visit, Kuai Zheng was reading a book in the study. He quickly put down the book and ordered someone to invite the Lumen disciples to the living room, then dress up and come to meet.

When I walked into the living room, I saw a young man in a commonplace sitting upright in the hall.

The boy was not old, and he looked quite thin and seemed a little sick. His clothes were also simple, and a white-washed cotton robe had no luxury at all. However, there was a hint of heroic spirit between his eyebrows, which made Kuai Zheng have to be more careful.

"He is a disciple of Lumen?"

The butler whispered: "That's right!"

“Can you confirm?”

"It has been confirmed... the car he is in is marked by Lumen Ponzi.

Young Master, don’t be negligent because of his simple clothes. I heard that the requirements under Lumen Mountain Gate are extremely strict. Pang Shangshu can give him a car to him, which means that this person must be a core disciple of Lumen. If he can have a good relationship with him, it will be of great benefit to Young Master..."

This housekeeper is Kuai Zheng’s confidant.

Kuai Zheng was originally a little contemptuous, but after hearing what the butler said, he immediately put away his negligence and walked into the hall.

In the hall, Cao Peng also got up early.

Seeing Kuai Zheng coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Student Cao Peng, have you seen the county magistrate!"

In ancient China, there was a habit of calling Shangguan "Grandman". However, this "Grandman" had many meanings, so in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, such a habit was still implemented.

Adults can be called a wealthy family or a person with noble character.

Cao Peng was not sure about the difference here, and he habitually called "Grandman". However, he did not expect that it was exactly the meaning of the word "Grandman".

In Kuai Zheng's ears, Cao Peng was praising him...

"Ah, my good brother doesn't have to be too polite.

The Kuai Pang family is a family friend. You are a disciple of Pang Shangshu. Speaking of which, you are also an equal to me. You cannot take the word "Adult" as well as you cannot take it!"

Kuai Zheng stepped forward to return the tribute, and his words were particularly friendly.

How could Cao Peng know that there are many things hidden in this title?

However, when Kuai Zheng was so kind, he had a clear mind. It seemed that he was quite successful in pretending to be a disciple of the Pang Sect.

He also knew that sooner or later this would reveal itself.

However, Cao Peng had other concerns: First, Kuai Zheng might not go to Lumen Mountain to verify; second, even if he proved, Pang Ji might have acquiesced. After all, Sima Hui gave him a car battle, and there was also the mark of Pangmen on it, which to some extent also represented Pang Ji's recognition of him.

There must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain. If one day it is revealed, think of other ideas...

After the two separated the guests and the host and the host sat down, Kuai Zheng asked, "Who is my good brother?"

Is your teacher Dapang or Xiaopang?

"When I say to my brother, I met Mr. Yuan'an a few days ago and listened to Mr. Yangche Town.

Mr. Decao was also...

When he heard that the boy was coming to Jiyang to join his relatives, Master Pang saw that the boy was in poor health, so he gave him a car to travel for him and asked his brother to take care of him."

Cao Peng's answer was very vague, and he did not say that he had worshipped Pang Ji as his teacher.

It was just said that he met Pang Ji on the way and then got this car battle. But to Kuai Zheng, it seemed that it had changed! Sima Decao was also a famous scholar in Jingxiang and a witness of Cao Peng's apprenticeship. It seemed that Pang Ji loved this newly accepted disciple very much, otherwise he would not have given a car battle.

Wait, is he coming to Jiyang to take on his relatives?

Doesn’t that mean that I have more opportunities to get close to me?

I don’t have to pay attention to it at home... but if I get close to the disciples of the Pang Sect, I will definitely have many more opportunities in the future.

The smile on Kuai Zheng's face became stronger.

"Brother, are you here to Jiyang to join the relatives? I wonder, who are you joining?"

This is not even needed to prove it. With the sign Pang Ji, Kuai Zheng was too lazy to investigate Cao Peng's origin.

"When I say to my brother-in-law, the boy's brother-in-law is from Dengcun.

Because I offended some people in my hometown, I had to come with my family... Haha, in the future, I will be under the rule of my brother, so I would like to take care of myself."

Dengcun?

That's closer!

Kuai Zheng then smiled and said, "Of course.

But I am afraid there are other things to come to see me.”

"Brother is really amazing. I guessed my thoughts at once... I'm not hiding it from my brother, I'm here today to ask for someone from my brother."

"Let me ask for someone?"

Kuai Zheng was even more curious and asked, "I wonder who my brother wants?"

A bright red suddenly appeared on Cao Peng's pale face. He seemed very angry, clenched his fists and said angrily: "My brother-in-law is working in the elder brother's mansion and has not been home for many days. My sister is not very healthy... I just arrived in Jiyang today, and I didn't want my sister to have a conflict with the evil woman in the village. Now I am bedridden. I have to take the liberty to come and ask my brother-in-law to go home to take care of her."
