Gentlemen, the old saying is new, the old saying is renewed. Then, what was the relationship between Li Chun and Yue Fei's father, Yue Yue? There was a need to explain.

It turned out that Li Chun and Yue Fei's father, Yue Yue, had been good friends for decades. Although one was in Tang Yin County and the other was in Neihuang County, the two of them had studied together for more than ten years as a teacher and had been good brothers for more than ten years.

The long time they had been together had given them a deep friendship. In front of their teacher, they had become sworn brothers, and this was also what Mr. Jin had expected of his students. They had shared the blessings and hardships of their time, one was an official, the other one could be taken care of, the two of them were officials, and the two of them supported each other.

But Li Chun and Yue He were the kind of brothers who shared life and death together, and agreed that when they had children in the future, the boys would be brothers, the girls would be sisters, Li Chun and Yue would be the father of the children; if they were a man and a woman, they would be husband and wife. Ordinarily, Li Chun admires Yue He's talent and often sighs: To be able to marry Yue He to Jinlan is a blessing in life.

As long as he found a good book outside, he would not want to read it. At least, he would let his sworn brother read it first. If it was a borrowed book, he would have to copy it all night to give it to Yue He.

Yue He was also very attentive to his sworn brother. They had come to the capital to take the examinations together many times in the past. On the other hand, Li Chun felt sorry for Yue and for her. It was fine if she said that she could not keep up with him, but Yue He was a talented brother, so why not go to high school?

However, in that era of "prefectural yamen with eight characters open, no one is allowed to enter while they have reason and no money", it was easier said than done in high school. Li Chun and Yue went back to his hometown to continue studying hard, diligently training, in the hope of waiting for the next open course examination.

This year, it was time for the examination again. After Li Chunyue had finished his preparations, he put on his clothes and set off on his journey. As soon as they left, Li Chun's father followed him into the capital. Li Chun's father was a local rich and well-known person, and his family background was relatively good. For his son, he treated his family's wealth as his own and wanted to enter the capital to find a way out.

But he knew his son, he was a proud, magnanimous, unwilling to admit defeat, unwilling to yield, unwilling to tolerate anything. If Li Chun knew that he had entered the capital to bribe the examiners, he would probably not even go to the capital. Therefore, Li Chun's father had sneaked into the capital and used the three thousand taels of silver that was his family's fortune to travel through the Academic Institution in the name of Li Chun and bribe the examiners.

Li Chun and Yue He smoothly passed the first three exams: the first exam, the second exam and the third exam. Li Chun and Yue He smoothly passed the first three exams, the second exam and the second exam and the third exam. They were at the Gongsheng Inn, waiting for the release of the results while discussing how to solve the problem of the Hall Competition.

On the day of the announcement, Li Chun and Yue rushed to the Gongsheng Rankings, they went from top scholar to top prospector, from first to third rank, but there was no name of Yue He. On the last rank, they saw Li Chun's name, Yue He was very happy for Li Chun, while Li Chun was very angry for Yue He's defeat.

Returning to the inn, Yue He congratulated Li Chun and warned him repeatedly that in the future, when he was an official of the imperial court, he must be diligent in his service and love the people, do good deeds for the good of the people.

Brother Yue He's literary skills are much higher than yours. You just failed a moment ago and got lucky on your own. As long as Brother Yue He and I take the exam again next year, we will definitely meet each other in the imperial court.

While Li Chunyue was trying to comfort each other, an official from the Academic Institution came to the inn to deliver Li Chun's results. Li Chun politely asked the official to sit, pour tea, and say a few words of thanks.

Yue He saw through his business and gave his saved money to the officials, who were clearly dissatisfied with Li Chun's actions. Before leaving, they said to Li Chun, "The lord is very generous at the Academic Institution and the main examiner. He spent a lot of money, so how could I afford to save money on tea?"

Li Chun was very angry and scolded, "Attendant Ah Ge, stop talking nonsense! "I am a righteous man, and I sit at the end of my seat. Of course, I am a capable man. How could Brother Li possibly slander me like this?"

The official refused to accept this and said, "Forget it! "Your excellency, you are now the Lord Magistrate, I will not argue with you. If you had not made things easier for the Chief Examiner, how could you have made things easier for Yue He?"

Although the official's words were spoken softly, they struck Li Chun like a clap of thunder. He said: "Attendant Brother A, please speak clearly. I have yet to leave the inn after the examination. How can it be convenient?"

Yue He knew Li Chun's whereabouts like the back of his hand, and knew that Li Chun had indeed not left his house yet. Worried that Li Chun and the officials would not leave, he quickly advised, "Official, Brother Li Chun did not leave his house, so it's fine if you make a mistake. This amount of silver pieces can only be used to feed the official a cup of tea.

The official weighed the silver in his hand and left unwillingly. As he walked, he muttered, "Who is it?" "He actually sent his family members to make things easier for us, and yet he still calls us thieves here. He really wants to set up a memorial archway even though he's a whore."

The arrival of his father made Li Chun understand everything that his official had said. He wished that there was a hole in the ground that he could burrow into immediately, and he even had the heart to die. This was his first time asking his father if he had done something shameful.

Upon seeing his son so angry, he could only tell him the truth. I wanted you to go to high school, but I definitely didn't have any intentions of replacing you. Now that the situation has come to this, I can't accept it.

Li Chun continued to roar as he threw his court uniform to the ground. He dragged Yue He to the Academic Institution to argue that he should return the finals to Yue He, even if both parties were at a disadvantage.

Yue He quickly closed the door of the inn and said to Li Chunyan, "Brother, no matter who it is, you and I should rejoice. Why are you feeling ashamed and angry? You were here just a moment ago to encourage your brother. Even if my uncle doesn't make things easier for you, the others will, and I am not in the position to be last, so you being able to become an official finally gives me a bit of hope. "

The old tearful father also advised his son, "Your mother and I are at the end of our rope. The only one who is worried is you. "I am sorry for my father. From today onwards, I will never leave my home. I will die of old age, and I will live the life of repentance for my own despicable deeds."

Yue He comforted the old man and tried to persuade Li Chun on one hand, but managed to calm Li Chun down. Since he was ranked last in the top three, Li Chun was released to serve as a magistrate in Jiangnan.

Not long after he left for the county magistrate's office, his father sent his fiancée to Qi Di for the wedding. This fiancée was Yue Fei's ex-wife Ying'er's twin aunt.

After marrying Li Chun, she married a chicken and a chicken, married a dog and a dog, and didn't return home for decades. Like Ying'er's mother, she was very ill, and after many years of marriage, she didn't give birth to a man and a woman for Li Chun.

In October, the woman gave birth to a daughter after half a year. Li Chun and his wife could not contain their joy. The woman quickly asked Li Chun to give her daughter a name. Li Chun thought about how he had been sworn brothers with Yue He before and didn't know that Yue He was born with a son.

His father's actions back then had made him regret it for life, so he had named his daughter Yin'er, meaning that his impersonation had been caused by money. His daughter's name was Li Shuzhen, hoping that when she married Yue He's son in the future, she would have to be virtuous and chaste in order to fulfill her father's wish.

As for Yue He? He did not know that because he was too self-reproachful, he had always felt guilty towards Yue He and was too embarrassed to write to Yue He. Yue He did not dare to write to Li Chun to arouse his uneasiness.

After Yue He returned to his hometown, he picked up the skills passed down in his family to make tofu. Before he passed away, he would often mention his relationship with Li Chun to his wife, Yao, and tell her that if Li Chun returned to his hometown as a relative, she had to be treated well. Li Chun had too many guilt, and there would always be a time for him to give up.

However, after waiting for many years, Li Chun had given up the opportunity to be promoted and be a close relative. He felt that his talent could not be compared to his brother Yue He's. Being able to become a county magistrate was his greatest merit.

When his daughter reached the age of twenty-eight, Li Chun wanted to send his daughter back to her hometown to visit her sworn brother. If her sworn brother had a son, he would definitely betroth her to his son.

His daughter was now seventeen and was the age of her unmarried daughter. Li Chun had been frowning the entire time, and it was at this moment that the woman fell into bed again, making Li Chun feel even worse.

His daughter wanted to pray for his mother, but unfortunately, she came at the right time when Fang Kui came down the mountain. With one glance, she saw her daughter's beauty and wanted to snatch it up the mountain to be the wife of a tyrant. After hearing the report from his family, Li Chun was like a madman.

With this history, Yue Fei's arrival was no different from sending Li Chunlai a son-in-law on a dragon. As soon as the banquet was over, he pulled Grandmaster Clear Cloud aside and expressed his feelings.

After all, when a daughter marries, she must have the words of a matchmaker. She couldn't just directly say her thoughts to Yue Fei. He had to take into consideration the Confucian etiquette and shame. Only then could he understand the story of Master Chen's matchmaking and Li County's fiancé.

After Yue Fei asked Miss Yin'er about her intentions, Li Chun trotted over to his daughter's embroidery room and coughed, "Is Yin'er here? "Father came to discuss marriage matters with you. I wonder if daughter agreed to it?"

"Father, Yin'er is inside. Your daughter's marriage will be decided by your father." From her voice, Li Chun could hear the satisfaction in her daughter's voice.

He was in high spirits, and soon arrived before the sickbed, woke the madame, and told her briefly what had happened. He also told her how handsome Yue Fei was, how courageous he was, and how good his martial arts were.

Returning to the main hall, Li Chun told Yue Fei that Yin'er did not have any opinions. She had clearly already agreed to this marriage.

Seeing this, Yue Fei hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you for your kindness, Uncle Li. This nephew will never be able to repay this kindness in this life. Even if I am born into this world, I will never be able to repay Uncle Li's kindness!"

"Amitabha!" Excellent! Excellent! Young Hero Yue, it's time for you to change your name. Master Clear Cloud teased.

"This... For your father-in-law, please accept your son-in-law's respect! " Yue Fei kowtowed again. Hahaha! Son-in-law, please get up! "Hurry, wake up!" Li Chun said happily.

"Shreve, you can't take away the good roots and the good fates to be born in another country. Sheriff, if there is a good man or a good woman, hear that Amitabha, hold the name. For one day, for two days, for three days, for four days, for five days, for six days, for seven days. When he was dying, the Amitabha Buddha and all the other Saints were now in front of him. Amitabha! "Benefactor Yue, the day after tomorrow is the day after your wedding. This old monk calculates that it will be the day after tomorrow, and would be an auspicious day for you to prepare for the future. I would like to ask Almsgiver Li to marry Young Hero Yue the next day so that we can celebrate your daughter's wedding ceremony. I wonder how Master Li and Young Hero Yue would like that?" Master Clear Cloud read a passage of the Amitabha Sutra and then continued to speak to the two of them.

Li Chun was overjoyed. "Good! Good! Just as Master said, this old man will settle it for his daughter. "

Their conversation had long since reached the ears of the busy maids and servants. The news of their young miss' wedding spread like a pair of wings throughout the entire residence, and even throughout the small county.

Because Li Chun was a clean and honest official, he kept a low profile, and his daughter was very happy with her marriage. He only wanted to arrange things at home, and with Grandmaster Wu Chen's marriage, he arranged his daughter's marriage in a very secretive manner.

On the day of their marriage, the dexterous Yu'er dressed up carefully for Yin'er, who for the most part had never dressed up like this before. Her eyebrows were plastered with makeup, her hair was coiled in a bun, and her hair was tied up in a bun; her mother accompanied her into marriage by a golden hairpin; it was as if she was Chang'e of the Moon Palace stealing from a mortal fairy.

The old lady, who was lying on the bed, knew that her darling daughter was going to get married. She didn't know where she got her spirit coming from, and since no one was around to help her, she shakily walked out from the inner room. However, it scared Li Chun and her family, as she was afraid that something might happen to her, causing her daughter's marriage.

However, the madame said with a hale and hearty expression, "Master, daughter has only gotten married once in her life. How can a mother lie on a bed? I want to comb Yin'er's hair and fix her dowry."

Li Chunyan said, "Ahem! This old man has already settled all of these matters, there's no need for you to worry about it.

"Amitabha!" Excellent! Excellent! "Lady Li knows that the golden wedding has ended about seventy to eighty percent of her illness. As long as the auspicious hour comes, Lady Li believes that her body will fully recover." Grandmaster Enlightenment said.

"Thank you for your blessings, Grandmaster Chen. I am Yue Fei, with my parents, am grateful for your blessings." After Yue Fei finished speaking, he bowed deeply towards Master Enlightenment.

"Young Hero Yue, there is no need to be courteous. This old monk's body is extremely useless thanks to Young Hero saving me. I do not dare to thank you for your great kindness, why would you say that?" Amitabha! " At this time, Grandmaster Enlightenment had already taken his eyes off of his body. Everything that happened in front of him could be seen from a panoramic view.

Just as everyone was looking at each other, suddenly, the gongs and drums outside the manor gate were noisy and firecrackers were ringing in the sky. The butler rushed to the main hall and told Li Chunyan, "Reporting to the lord, there are hundreds of mountain people outside the manor gate, and they are beating the gongs and drums, setting off firecrackers and carrying a signboard. They say they are here to give the tablet to the young master.

It was true: this Yin was more like a goddess than a bird; this foster father was more like a lover than a foe; this parent was not hiding the merits of his parents; this official was more like a mirror hanging over the head of an official.
