Since Shen Ji'an was taken into prison, the news that could not be found out by half a minute that was originally blocked was like mushrooms springing up in the streets and alleys in an instant, and this time there was no need for Shen Junqian to secretly call the little girl to investigate, and he could hear all kinds of market rumors and gossip from outside from time to time.

is known as the largest fraud case in the examination field of the Great Yin Liguo, and it suddenly broke out in everyone's ordinary life for no apparent reason.

The people under the imperial capital exploded overnight, and they will try not to say that there is one every year, but it will always be once every three years. Which Kyoto person has not seen dozens of times in his life, and it is not uncommon for the people of Kyoto to meet any happy events and Enko when they meet the royal family. Not to mention the fraud in the field, every year there will be more or less some scholars who are discredited because of this matter, if they are strict, it is not that there are no officials who have been beheaded because of this matter. It is not so surprising that the fraud case can be big, it is estimated that it is not as good as the best restaurant in Kyoto, Sanweiju, with any new dishes, and the best Qinglou Lingxi Pavilion has a new brand to make the people talk about it.

But this time is really different, first of all, the news of this fraud in the field was hidden too tightly for some reason in advance, whether it was in the streets or alleys of the market or above the high hall, no news was heard, as soon as the news exploded, not to mention the surprise of the ordinary people in Beijing, it was the sweat of the high-ranking families, powerful officials and nobles.

This is also necessary, what is the most important capital for a big family to survive, the first news, whoever has more information and more details, the harder the waist board. The reason why the family is called the family is because of its wide network of people and many and complex news channels, no matter what happens, it can always make predictions and preparations in advance, so that it can always be invincible. None of the families that can be passed down are simple. Otherwise, do you think there will be no new high-ranking officials and aristocrats in the world? Of course, there are, and there are very many of them, but these people disappear and change faster, and there is no shortage of rich and powerful people in Kyoto, but there is a shortage of people who have always been rich and powerful.

Originally, those who were still well-informed in their homes had been sending people around to find out the news in the past few days, so there were many more people in Kyoto who had always had a chaotic population flow and a lot of mixed information.

No one believes that this will be a simple case of fraud in the field, there must be something, such as why this fraud was exposed, why the news was covered up before it was exposed, and who covered up the news.

Of course, these are not the reasons why the people are concerned, the people only care about whether there will be white rice in their bowls to eat, and whether the white rice can feed their own people. It's just that when they are competing with heaven and earth for food, they don't mind gossiping about the lives of those nobles. Although some scholars are not nobles, in general, they are a very magical group of people to them, and they are not comparable to those of them who are facing the earth and eating food, so hearing the gossip and anecdotes of these people cannot but be said to be a great spiritual enjoyment.

The old man, who enjoyed these the most, stepped on the stool with one foot on his chest at this time, took a sip of the wine bowl on the table, and then twisted a peanut into his mouth. Everyone said with a red face, as if they had experienced the field and seen those candidates.

"Do you know why the sage's grandfather attaches so much importance to this fraud case, I don't know! I heard that the people standing in the Jinluan Hall for a court meeting are all some old men in their fifties and sixties, and even sixty or seventy years old...... You think, every time I meet with the court, it's also an old man, some of them even talk out of the way, you can't say this clearly, can the saint grandfather not be annoyed, he is annoyed and thinks about this time, just looking for some young and strong offspring, who knows that there is such a thing as cheating, do you say he can not be angry, he holds a court meeting every morning, and always listens to some old men who discuss the court affairs that are not clear in that words, and it is easy to see that you can write about the young descendants who are full of tide, but they don't learn well one by one, and they are simply arrested one by one and put them in prison……”

"What are you talking about, I heard it, isn't that the case?" The person who interjected looked at everyone, and immediately said angrily in the sharp eyes of the person who had just been interrupted: "My uncle's aunt's nephew's nephew's neighbor's cousin's girl married one of the village to enter the palace, this ......"

The man made a movement with his hand like a knife under him, and glanced meaningfully at the confused crowd, and everyone immediately nodded with a sudden understanding.

"Listen to my uncle's aunt's ......"

"Getting to the point. The one who stretched his neck and waited to listen to the gossip was already dissatisfied with this man's long string of ramblings, and when he heard that he was coming again, he almost shouted in unison.

"Hehe, I heard that this fraud case was involving the emperor's relatives, so the sage's grandfather was furious and wanted to rectify them, maybe this time the emperor's relatives will also be beheaded. As if to show credibility, the person who said it nodded firmly.

A fortune teller who was drinking alone in the corner shook his head and said: "No, no, what you said is not right, I looked at the sky and found that it was Zi Weixing that suddenly dimmed, and it was next to the greedy wolf star Dasheng, which is a villain in the way...... Fierce Glory...... There is calamity...... You can't say it, you can't say it......"

I don't know if it's because I'm drunk or whatever, the more I say it, the more vague it becomes, and the tone is not clear, but everyone else has already started a new round of sharing the most "accurate" and "new" news in their hands......

*******

Shen Junqian had already finished eating a plate of almond crisp that was said to be the signature of the teahouse, and she took a big sip of the tea bowl on the table like a cow chewing a peony, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and she was finally comfortable.

After doing this, I remembered to pick up a fan on the table, opened it with a "pop", and shook it pretendedly.

The clothes next to him asked in a low voice: "Auntie...... Master, you ...... Is there a mistake, what we heard while sitting in this teahouse was the braggadocio of the mud legs of the restaurant opposite, what news can we hear about the third master, or Xingyu got the wrong place, not this restaurant?"

As soon as Xingyu heard what she said, her eyes immediately bulged and she was about to refute, but she was stopped by Shen Junqian with a gesture.

Shen Junqian also knew that since the morning, when she decided to take Xingyu to change into men's clothes and sneak out of the Shen Mansion to inquire about the news, her frowning brows have not been relaxed, if she wasn't really at ease, she wouldn't have been able to resist her little master in the end, so she had to go out in men's clothes.

However, Shen Junqian looked down at the moon-white green bamboo robe on his body again, wearing a hairband of the same color on his head, he couldn't be more satisfied, nodded secretly, and explained to the clothes, "I'm not wrong, Xingyu is not wrong, okay, I know everything I want to inquire about, we, it's rare to come out once, let's go out for a walk and have something delicious and then go home." ”

"Ah, has the girl already inquired, when did it happen, why didn't we see it?" Zhan Yi and Xingyu glanced at each other in surprise, and when they saw Xingyu shaking their heads, they couldn't help but ask.

After asking, he remembered that Shen Junqian said that he was going out for a walk, and his face became even more embarrassed, "Girl, it's not good for us to sneak out this time, let's go back quickly, in case Mrs. finds out about ......"

Shen Junqian secretly rolled her eyes, she is not stupid, her mother will punish her harshly at home, she will not know how to avoid her mother if she wants to come out, "My mother, she went out today, she won't come back until Shen Shi, as long as we rush back to Shen Shi, nothing will happen, don't worry!"

Xingyu has never worried about these things, she has always only been an attendant of Shen Junqian's order, although she is worried, but although her own girl is young and has a good idea, it is impossible for her to change, and she sighs secretly and can only silently follow the footsteps of her own girl.

After only going out and walking a few steps, Shen Junqian secretly screamed in his heart, "Oops!" and wanted to retreat, not wanting that the person on the other side had already seen her and quickly walked in front of her.

Unfortunately, it was Xu Zhuqing and Xu Yaqin, brothers and sisters.

After all, the brothers and sisters of the Xu family are not the young masters and girls of the Shen family, and they will not be restrained, so it is a little more convenient for them to enter and exit on weekdays than the young masters and girls of the Shen family.

Meeting the six girls of the Shen family in this teahouse in a remote alley after all, made Xu Zhuqing's brothers and sisters very surprised, but Xu Yaqin only recovered from surprise on her face. This sixth girl is also known for her boldness in the Shen family, and now it is not a matter for a woman to disguise herself as a man and go out with a maid, Xu Yaqin thought secretly with envy and sourness.

Xu Zhuqing frowned and looked behind Shen Junqian, "You're alone?"

Being caught at the scene, Shen Junqian was still a little embarrassed, and when she heard Xu Zhuqing ask, she immediately reflexively retorted, "How can you be alone, isn't there stained clothes and apricot rain?"

Xu Zhuqing's gaze turned to Zhan Yi and Xingyu, his eyes were obviously disapproving, staring at Shen Junqian and asking, "The two of them, two little girls who are not much older than you, you will take the two of them out?"

"It's enough to have the two of them......" Shen Junqian still had to distinguish, Xu Zhuqing couldn't say anything: "Then I'll send you back, if something happens to the street in such a mess, what can the two little girls do." ”

"I'm not going back, I'm going to go shopping, and I'll go back when I'm done. Oh, Cousin Xu, don't worry, I'm familiar here, nothing will happen. As soon as he heard that he was about to be escorted back, Shen Junqian immediately quit.

Xu Zhuqing was about to say something, but Xu Yaqin on the side said lightly, "Brother, it just so happens that I also want to visit Kyoto, I haven't been out for so long, why don't you take me and Cousin Qian to go shopping together." ”

Xu Zhuqing looked at Shen Junqian, who was not very talkative, and then looked at Shen Junqian, who obviously didn't want to meet the Shen family and was looking at him expectantly, frowned and thought about it, and finally took them to the famous street market in Kyoto. A noble family
