Chapter 1797 Convicted

Changzhi and others were seen by the scholars who were queuing in official uniforms, and some people started whispering.

In the examination room, Chang Zhi sat down with the deputy chief examiner and others, and the gate of the examination room opened as time went by, and teams of scholars went in to check their identities one by one after inspection.

Chang Zhi sat on the main seat and listened to check the candidates' information. He was waiting for that Li Xiucai!

Some candidates have the courage to take a sneak peek, while others are timid and keep their heads down.

As time passed, Changzhi sat up straight, attracting the attention of the assistant examiner, "What's the matter, sir?"

Changzhi saw Li Xiucai below who really dared to look up at him, with deep eyes and a serious face, Li Xiucai shrunk his neck and lowered his head in fright, not daring to look up again.

The assistant examiner squinted his eyes, "Your Excellency knows?"

Chang Zhi had a half-smile, "There are some people I want to know."

The assistant examiner's heart trembled, "What do you mean, sir?"

"You understand, don't you?"

The deputy chief examiner was in a state of turmoil, did Mr. Zhou know it? No, if you know how Qiu Wei will be held as scheduled, you will look at Mr. Zhou in doubt, but Mr. Zhou is leaning on the chair again and has no intention of talking.

In the capital city, Ming Hui led Ming Jing to watch Shao Xun enter the examination room. After Shao Xun entered the examination room, he showed up and walked in front of Jiang Ling and Shao Ting.

Shao Ting was surprised, "My son came to see off my brother, but unfortunately my brother has already entered the examination room."

"I've arrived a long time ago, but I've been watching from a distance because I'm afraid of putting pressure on Shao Xun. I think he's in good spirits."

Jiang Ling answered, "I had a good rest these two days."

Shao Ting was very grateful to Young Master Zhou in her heart, "If it wasn't for Young Master, brother would not have the self-confidence that he has today. The little girl thanked Young Master."

Minghui signaled Shao Ting to get up, "I also have a purpose."

Jiang Ling looked at her future sister-in-law from the corner of her eye after hearing this, and looked away with a smile in her eyes.

Shao Ting was beating in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. Sometimes she felt that Mr. Zhou treated her differently. Every time she wanted to hide, Mr. Zhou didn't show up. Forget it, she didn't bother others.

Ming Jing tugged at her brother's sleeve, "Brother, look."

Ming Hui followed his fat fingers to look over, there are several young masters of the Yong'an Duke's Mansion, there are as many as four of the Duke's Mansion taking part in the imperial examination this year, and these four are all about the same age.

Ming Hui didn't want to stay with Shao Ting for longer, so he asked, "My brother is one step ahead."

As he said that, Minghui took his younger brother away, and when he got away from the crowd, Mingjing said, "Dong Xingwang, a member of Duke Yong'an's mansion."

Ming Hui said: "The four references were successfully selected as scholars. I don't know if Qiu Wei will be successful."

Ming Jing, "It should go well, I see that the Duke's Mansion has made many preparations for the imperial examination."

Minghui felt that it would not be so easy, even if the children of the Jiangnan family hadn't entered Beijing yet.

In Chuanzhou City, candidates entered the examination room one after another. Changzhi stood up after sitting for a long time, and said to the deputy chief examiner and other officials, "Let's go, let's patrol the examination room."

The deputy chief examiner and others stood up one after another, "Please, my lord."

Changzhi took a step forward with his hands behind his back, and suddenly asked the deputy chief examiner, "Prefect Shi didn't come today."

The deputy chief examiner lowered his voice, "I heard that there is a case that needs to be tried."

Changzhi, "You are well informed."

The deputy chief examiner hurriedly said: "It has already spread."

"oh."

Changzhi didn't walk slowly. When he came to the place guarded by the soldiers, the examinees were packing their luggage. It was not the first time Changzhi came to the examination room. The examination room was newly repaired and there would be no problems such as rain leakage. valley

There was only the sound of tidying up things in the examination room. Seeing Changzhi and the others stood up hurriedly, Changzhi signaled, "Don't be nervous, you are busy."

Candidates still couldn't calm down, especially Li Xiucai.

Changzhi walked up to Li Xiucai, "Why don't you look at me?"

Li Xiucai's fingertips trembled a little, "My lord has a strong official authority, and the students dare not look directly at him."

Chang Zhi raised his eyebrows, "Don't you think I look familiar?"

Li Xiucai's calves were shaking this time. He felt familiar when he saw Mr. Zhou for the first time, and soon remembered where he had seen him. When he leaked the exam questions in the inn, Mr. Zhou was sitting next to him.

The deputy chief examiner said, "Your Excellency, have you seen this candidate?"

Chang Chi,

"I've seen it."

The deputy chief examiner and the others tensed up and became more and more uneasy, especially Mr. Zhou stared at them as if he knew everything.

Li Xiucai was under the greatest pressure, his back was soaking wet, "Master, my lord, the students have never seen an adult before."

Changzhi said in a dignified tone, "You can think of a clear answer."

Li Xiucai shivered, "Student, the student has thought clearly."

Changzhi hummed, and asked the deputy examiner and the others, "Do you know Li Xiucai?"

At this time, the assistant examiner could only grit his teeth, "I don't know."

The others shook their heads, "I don't know."

Changzhi continued: "This person has high-quality spices in his home, you really don't know them?"

The deputy chief examiner's mind was blank, and there was something he didn't understand, Mr. Zhou already knew everything.

There was a lot of movement here, and the candidates who were packing their luggage stopped their movements one after another, fearing that it would affect Qiu Wei.

The deputy chief examiner lowered his head, "My lord is joking, how do we know that his family has good spices?"

Changzhi stood with his hands behind his back, his back straight and straight, "Sure enough, I don't cry when I see the coffin. I have been in Sichuan for many months. Guess what I saw?"

At this moment, no one dared to answer the words, and the officials not far away frowned.

Changzhi said in a sad tone, "I have seen the rotten Chuanzhou, smelled the stench, and faced with you, I feel nauseated every day. You have the audacity to accept bribes to reverse grades, buy and sell exam questions, and kill candidates whose grades are replaced in order to cover up evidence. , are you worthy of the trust of the imperial court? Are you worthy of the Chuanzhou students?"

There were only two words in the deputy examiner's mind, "I'll wait."

Changzhi interrupted and asked sternly, "Are you convicted?"

With a bang, Li Xiucai was already kneeling on the ground, startled.

The deputy chief examiner didn't want to die, he knew that ransacking the house was a minor matter, and he wanted to argue for his life, "My lord, I've been wronged, please learn from me."

Changzhi sneered, "You are still stubborn. Do you really think that I only have the names of a few victims? I have already found out what should be investigated in Chuanzhou for many months. Today I will return Chuanzhou to Qingming. Get rid of you and other scum."

After finishing speaking, Changzhi called out, "Come here."

Today, the officials are all from the government office, and many of them are the confidants of the Shi Zhifu. Some people have already quietly left to pass on the news when they sensed something was wrong. Some people quietly approached Mr. Zhou, trying to control it.

Suddenly, when someone came, the officer heard the heavy footsteps, and was a little dazed. When he saw groups of soldiers entering with knives, before he could react, the officer in the examination room was blocked by the knife around his neck.

The fifty soldiers who maintained order in the examination room were also treated the same as the examination room officials. Someone shouted, "We are our own people."

It's a pity that the knife is one step closer to the neck in exchange.

The entire examination room was quiet. With such a big movement, the timid examinees were already frightened, while the calm ones were bright-eyed, while the examinees who bought the exam questions were trembling.
