Chapter 622 "As a descendant of a traitor, how can I have the chance to take the imperial exami

Seeing Jiang Wuya's hurried look, Jiang Luo immediately stepped forward and asked, "Father, what happened?"

Jiang Wuya said solemnly, "According to a wiretap, an envoy was sent from the palace to accuse my father of abusing his power for personal gain and embezzling a large amount of disaster relief gold and silver. He was also involved in last year's imperial examination fraud case, and said that my father was secretly in collusion with Nan Zhao and was suspected of selling out the country. This is simply... nonsense!"

Jiang Luo's expression suddenly changed, and he asked, "This... Father, is someone deliberately framing me? I will go find the teacher and ask him to help write a letter to the court to redress my father's injustice!"

Jiang Wuya grabbed him and said, "Son! It's too late! The court has sent out the Night Court Guards this time. The emperor doesn't have much time left. Our family is on the side of the Third Prince. Your cousin's mother is the Third Prince's biological mother. The Fourth Prince is fighting for the throne with the Third Prince, and our family is a thorn in his side! Luo'er, listen to your father and let Xiao Linzi take you away! Live well!"

"No! Father! I can't leave!" Jiang Luo was filled with indignation: "I just don't believe that there is no place for reason in this world!"

Jiang Wuya advised: "Child, you are still young and don't understand the rules of this world. As long as you survive, our Qijiang Jiang family still has hope! Xiao Linzi, hurry up, take him away! If it's too late, it will be too late!"

Xiao Linzi responded, grabbed Jiang Luo and was about to take him away.

Jiang Luo refused to leave and said, "I won't leave. I am also a member of the Jiang family. I can't just leave like this!"

Jiang Wuya said earnestly, "Your aunt and the third prince went through so much trouble and risked their lives to deliver this message, all in order to preserve this bloodline of our Jiang family! Luo'er, as long as there is green mountains, there will be no shortage of firewood. Xiao Linzi, take him away quickly! Otherwise, no one will be able to leave!"

Xiao Linzi said nothing more, but walked forward and gently hit Jiang Luo on the back of the neck, and Jiang Luo fell down limply.

Jiang Wuya took out a brocade bag from his bosom and handed it to Xiao Linzi, admonishing him: "This is the family property accumulated by my Lin family for generations. Take it and give it to him! Xiao Linzi, I know you are a good child who values ​​love and trust. From now on, Luo'er... will be handed over to you!"

Xiao Linzi said nothing, but nodded heavily. Jiang Wuya knew that as long as he agreed, he would be able to do it properly, so he turned and left the academy.

Xiao Linzi carried the unconscious Jiang Luo on his back and quietly left the Jiang family mansion under the cover of night. His steps were brisk and steady, like a clever cat, avoiding all possible dangers. The night was deep and the streets were silent, with only the occasional barking of dogs breaking the tranquility.

Xiao Linzi knew that time was running out and the Night Court Guards could surround the Jiang Mansion at any time, so he had to take Jiang Luo away from Qishui City as soon as possible. His destination was the forest outside the city, where there was a hidden cave, which was a refuge that Jiang Wuya had prepared for his family many years ago.

After running all the way, Xiao Linzi finally arrived at the cave before dawn. He gently put Jiang Luo down, checked his breathing and pulse, and was relieved after confirming that he was safe. He walked to the entrance of the cave and vigilantly observed the movements around him to make sure no one was following him.

As the sky gradually brightened, Jiang Luo slowly woke up. He rubbed his aching neck and suddenly remembered everything that happened last night. He immediately sat up and asked anxiously, "Xiao Linzi, where is my father? How is the Jiang family doing now?"

Xiao Linzi walked up to him and whispered, "Master, the master asked us to leave first. He has his own arrangements. We are safe now, but the Night Court Guards may catch up with us at any time. We must leave here as soon as possible."

Jiang Luo clenched his fists, a trace of anger and helplessness flashed in his eyes: "Father...something will definitely happen to him! I can't just leave him like this!"

Xiao Linzi held his shoulders and said firmly, "Master, the master is most worried about you. He asked me to take you away just to protect you. We must survive in order to clear the Jiang family's name and clear the master's grievances."

Jiang Luo was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, his voice low: "You are right... I can't let my father's sacrifice go to waste. Xiao Linzi, what should we do next?"

Xiao Linzi took out the brocade bag that Jiang Wuya had given him and handed it to Jiang Luo: "This is what the master gave you. It contains our Jiang family's property and some important letters. Young master, let's leave Qishui City first and go find the master's friend. He will definitely help us."

Jiang Luo took the brocade bag and tears flowed down his face unconsciously. He walked out of the cave and looked in the direction of the Jiang family. He saw a raging fire. He was afraid that everyone in the Jiang family had met with an accident.

Jiang Luo fell to his knees on the ground and burst into tears. He was filled with grief and didn't understand why his home had become like this today when everything was fine yesterday.

Xiao Linzi came forward and knelt with him, holding him with one hand and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely avenge the master and the others. I will not let any of these people go."

Jiang Luo cried all night, and when it was almost dawn, he said to Xiao Linzi, "I want to go home and see my family."

Xiao Linzi wanted to persuade him not to go, as the Yeting Guards were most likely not gone yet, so he should not act rashly.

But he also knew that this would be the last time he saw his father, even if it was just one last time.

So he nodded, carried Xiao Linzi on his back, and jumped onto the roof of the Jiang family as nimbly as a cheetah.

Jiang Luo lay on the roof and saw everything in the main courtyard. His parents and grandfather were all lying in a pool of blood, and the servants were all dead and scattered. The Jiang family was once a prosperous family, but it was destroyed.

Jiang Luo bit the back of his hand hard to stop himself from crying, but the tears kept falling down. He was full of hatred and anger, but he looked helpless, which made people feel very distressed.

Xiao Linzi didn't let him stay for long. He carried him on his back and left Qijiang, planning to take him to a remote place to avoid disaster.

Although the Jiang family's private property was in his hands, he did not dare to contact them, for fear of being caught by the Night Court Guards again.

They settled down in a small border town. Jiang Luo seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit at once, leaving Xiao Linzi at a loss as to what to do.

But in order to keep them alive, Xiao Linzi chose to join the Border Town Guard, which paid him one tael and six cents a month, enough for the two of them to live on.

However, Jiang Luo's body was getting weaker and weaker, and he had no appetite, which made Xiao Linzi very distressed. He could only persuade him: "Master, you can still take the imperial examination. As long as you pass the examination and become the top scholar, you can overturn the case for the master."

Jiang Luo just smiled bitterly: "As a descendant of a criminal, how can I have the opportunity to take the imperial examination?"

Xiao Linzi didn't understand and just asked him: "Then...how can I take part in the scientific examination?"

Jiang Luo thought for a moment and replied, "Unless you have made great contributions."

Xiao Linzi just thought about it for a moment and said, "Okay, then I will go and earn that great merit."

Jiang Luo thought he was just talking casually, but he disappeared for more than a month. When he came back, he was already Captain Lin. It was said that he sneaked into the enemy camp alone and burned the enemy's granary, thus allowing the army to annihilate more than a thousand enemies.

He was divided into a thousand households, commanding 900 soldiers, and was awarded a fourth-rank gold medal. His monthly salary was also increased to ten taels.

Jiang Luo coughed softly and looked at the residence in front of him. He asked in surprise, "You have been promoted to a thousand households in just one month?"

Xiao Linzi responded, "Yes, Master. I told you that I will definitely earn this great achievement for you!"

Jiang Luo then realized that every word Xiao Linzi said before was worth a thousand gold.

He frowned and asked, "Why are you doing this? My family has fallen on hard times, and I'm no longer a young master. If you still consider me a friend, just call me by my name!"

Xiao Linzi nodded and responded, "Okay, Xiao Luo."

The sound of a small fall made Jiang Luo's heart tremble slightly, as if a long-lost memory was revived, but it was only a flash and he never caught it.

Xiao Linzi added: "Just focus on studying and the imperial examination. You will definitely be able to enter Beijing before the exam next year!"

So, after saying this, Xiao Linzi disappeared for more than a month.

During the time when Xiao Linzi disappeared again, Jiang Luo studied hard in the house every day. He knew that Xiao Linzi was fighting for opportunities for him, and he couldn't let her down. Although he was still grief-stricken, he gradually found some goals in life - to restore the Jiang family's reputation and clear his father's grievances.

However, as time went by, Jiang Luo's body became weaker and weaker. Perhaps it was the blows and inner grief of the past few days, or the bad weather in the border town, he began to cough frequently and his face became paler.

One night, Jiang Luo was reading at his desk when he suddenly felt dizzy and the book in his hand fell to the ground. He held onto the table and barely supported himself, but he still slowly slid to the ground.

At this moment, Xiao Linzi pushed the door open and walked in. He was still dusty and had obviously just come back from outside. Seeing Jiang Luo lying on the ground, Xiao Linzi's face changed instantly. He quickly stepped forward, helped Jiang Luo up, and asked anxiously: "Xiao Luo, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang Luo opened his eyes weakly and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiao Linzi...you are back?"

Xiao Linzi nodded, with a hint of self-blame in his tone: "I came back late. You were sick, why didn't you take a good rest?"

Jiang Luo forced a smile and said weakly: "I'm fine... just a little tired."

Xiao Linzi frowned, reached out and touched Jiang Luo's forehead, and found that his body temperature was burning hot, obviously he had been ill for a long time. He immediately picked up Jiang Luo, put him on the bed, and then turned around to find a doctor.

When the doctor arrived, he diagnosed that Jiang Luo had caught a cold, and that his body was weak due to long-term mental strain. He prescribed a few medicines and told Xiao Linzi to make sure Jiang Luo had a good rest and not to overwork himself.

After Xiao Linzi sent the doctor away, he personally boiled the medicine and brought it to Jiang Luo's bedside. He helped Jiang Luo up and carefully fed him the medicine, with a hint of blame in his tone: "Xiao Luo, you can't work so hard anymore. If your body collapses, how can you restore the Jiang family's reputation?"

Jiang Luo finished drinking the medicine and leaned against the head of the bed, with a hint of apology in his eyes: "I'm sorry, Xiao Linzi, I made you worry."

Xiao Linzi shook his head and said firmly, "You should take good care of yourself and leave the rest to me. I have already secured an opportunity for you to go to Beijing."

Jiang Luo was slightly stunned and asked, "Are you talking about... the scientific expedition?"

Xiao Linzi nodded: "I have made great contributions. The court has agreed to allow you to participate in next year's imperial examination based on my military achievements. As long as you can pass the examination, you will have a chance to overturn the case for the Jiang family."

Yes, at this time Captain Lin was already General Lin. He led more than 900 of his soldiers to recapture the lost Yanyun County that had been occupied by the northern border for many years.
