Chapter 52: Blatant Fraud
After getting the cyan jade bottle, not long after Lu Yunqing returned to the Splendid Courtyard, the old servant on the old lady's side came over and urged him to go on the road together.
Lu Yunqing saw that the person who came was an old servant, not an old housekeeper, and knew that the old lady had become wary of the old housekeeper, but he didn't break it, and went out with Dingchun to get into the carriage and rushed to Luzhou City.
This time, everyone in the Lu family stayed in Luzhou City for four or five days, and the guest house was not cost-effective, so the old housekeeper directly found a house to rent.
Lu Yunqing moved into a slightly remote room to live in, and after cleaning up again, it was already dark.
After eating, everyone went straight to sleep.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, the sky was just dawning, and Luzhou City was lively, whether it was ordinary people or family nobles, they were all rushing in the direction of Hanmei Academy.
Today is the first day of the re-examination of Hanmei Girls' School! Anyway, I have to take a look at the freshness.
And the street outside the Hanmei Academy has long been controlled by the people of the government, blocking pedestrians on both sides for the candidates to enter normally, as for the chief examiners, they have stayed in the Hanmei Academy last night.
At this moment, in the examination room of Hanmei Academy, there are still stewards making final preparations.
After walking around, the mansion master sat down peacefully on the main examination platform.
There are many subjects in this re-examination, and the examination room is also divided into several, as the head of Hanmei Academy, he is also the main examiner of the re-examination, responsible for coordinating the overall situation, and any trouble in the examination room will be solved by him.
And there is also an examiner under him, who is responsible for patrolling various examination rooms to catch cheaters, and even occasionally meddle in the assessment.
This position is generally assigned by the government, and it is a well-known local Confucian student, he also heard that the copy of the examination is an old minister who has returned to his hometown, named He Tangzhi, he has heard of this person before, he has a slight reputation in Luzhou City, although it is not as good as other Luzhou City celebrities, it is enough to be a female student re-examination tour.
Below He Tangzhi, there are the main examinees in each sub-examination room, all of which are in charge of the gentlemen and embroidery workshop owners who reviewed the primary selection before, and the sub-examiners are also assigned by the government to prevent the main examiner from shielding the candidates.
When the hour was approaching, all the gentlemen and deputy examiners changed into the examiner's clothes and came to the examination room, and He Tangzhi also leaned over and took small steps before finally arriving.
As soon as he arrived, many deputy examiners greeted him with a smile, and they knew each other well before.
"This He Tangzhi's connections are quite extensive."
Such a thought flashed in the mansion master's heart, and he didn't feel strange, after all, He Tangzhi was also a person who had mixed in officialdom, and it was strange that he didn't have many acquaintances.
At this time, He Tangzhi seemed to see the mansion master, and immediately leaned over with his fists and said with a smile: "Old He Tangzhi, I really have admired the name of the mansion lord for a long time." ”
"He Lao is polite."
The mansion master also arched his hand, and greeted with a faint smile.
He always felt that this He Tangzhi's smile was a little fake, and it was not suitable for friendship. However, after the women's school assessment, it is estimated that he and this person will no longer have much communication, and they can still do it by maintaining a harmonious colleague relationship for only a few days.
While! While! While......
The school bell rang five times, and everyone who was still laughing and talking stopped one after another.
"Everyone, the hour has come, let's all go to the examination room to meet the candidates!"
"Good!"
"The contemptible man is gone."
Everyone arched their hands to the mansion master, and in the blink of an eye, they walked cleanly.
A moment later, the door of the academy opened, and the steward came out and shouted, "Candidates are in!" ”
A group of warblers and Yanyan who had been waiting at the door for a long time were all nervous, and stepped into the courtyard gate with apprehension, among these young ladies, Lu Yinfeng was impressively listed, but she was different from others, and her eyes were full of absolute confidence.
Last night, she had secretly seen her mother. Since my mother said that, there must be no problem.
After the tea time, all the candidates sat down, and the lord unveiled the first batch of exam questions.
"Summer!"
There is only one word in the exam question, summer summer!
Many delicate ladies in the field turned pale when they saw the exam questions.
Since it is a school selection, the understanding of the exam questions must not just stay in the vassal elegance, either to extend a deeper chill, or to be ingenious and innovative, otherwise it will definitely be unknown to everyone.
Of course, not everyone understands this truth, and even many people think it is simple and do it directly.
In the political examination room, Lu Yinfeng wrote very smoothly with a brush. Her mother told her that whatever she wrote, she just had to fill the pages with paper.
On the other side, He Tangzhi has begun to patrol the examination rooms in various sub-examination rooms, with a serious and serious attitude, and has won the favor of many examiners.
Half an hour later, many candidates began to hand in their papers one after another.
In the painting examination room, Mr. Qi took the exam paper handed over by the deputy examiner and couldn't help laughing.
What is this drawing?
A fan?
Such a clumsy painting technique is afraid that even a five-year-old child from a scholarly family is not as good, how the primary selection was passed, you can imagine.
Mr. Qi shook his head, looked up at the woman who handed over the exam paper and looked like she was about to cry, and didn't say anything, just asked the steward to take her out of the examination room, and then crossed out the name on the roster.
The same situation happens from time to time in other examination rooms, and it is rare for one of them to pass the primary selection occasionally.
However, after half of the six hours of the re-examination time limit had passed, the number of people who passed had increased.
Seeing that the time was ripe, He Tangzhi came to the political examination room, first pretended to read a few articles, and reviewed them for Mr. Chen.
Mr. Chen was already tired from reading the article for a long time, and he couldn't help but show gratitude when he saw this.
He Tangzhi smiled slightly, raised his head and glanced at Lu Yinfeng, who was sitting in the examination room.
Lu Yinfeng immediately understood and got up to hand in the papers.
He Tangzhi stood a little in front of the main examination platform, after taking the paper with both hands, while Mr. Chen was still talking to the deputy examiner in a whisper, at the moment when he turned around and put his hands on his sleeve, he directly replaced Lu Yinfeng's scroll and the scroll in his sleeve, and then handed it to Mr. Chen, and whispered: "This article is still a little interesting." ”
Mr. Chen rubbed his eyebrows, took the article and glanced at it, and it was really refreshing.
Although this article is also decent, the writing is still flawed, but the flaws are not concealed, and it has reached the standard.
Putting down the article, Mr. Chen directly circled the roster, then looked up at Lu Yinfeng and nodded with a smile, and said softly: "Go back and wait for the news of the final election." ”
Although Lu Yinfeng knew that there would be such a result, but when he really heard the affirmative answer from Mr. Chen's mouth, he was still overjoyed, and he couldn't suppress the joy on his face, turned around and ran out of the examination room, and almost fell at the threshold.
Seeing this, Mr. Chen couldn't help but shake his head.
Zhengwen is quite passable, but unfortunately his heart is not very stable, and it is difficult to become a big tool.
Time passed slowly in the torment of many family ladies, until the last candidate presented the test paper, and the first day of re-examination was over.
That night, the steward of Hanmei School posted a list of articles, and after the people who were waiting here early surrounded them, they only saw a few dozen names.
"More than 100 candidates, but only passed so little?"
"It's too harsh!"
"What's this? Hanmei Academy is the best school in Luzhou City, how many powerful people have come out of it over the years? It's normal to be harsh, and the private schools of other colleges are all picking on the rest of him. ”
The old housekeeper who had been guarding the crowd saw that there was Lu Yinfeng among these names, and he suddenly sighed in his heart, and hurriedly withdrew from the crowd to report to Lu Yunqing.
And Lu Yunqing, who was in the house, had already known about it, because as soon as Lu Yinfeng came back, he excitedly hyped up the news that he had passed the retest.
In the room, Lu Yunqing put the wet clothes in front of the window to dry, and a trace of solemnity passed between her eyebrows.
Lu Yinfeng in the previous life, let alone the re-examination, didn't even get into the primary election, and Lu Jinzhi was the same, why did everything change in this life?
Could it be that the Yang family, who has been driven out of the Lu family these days, has a new encounter outside?
The only thing she could think of now was this possibility.
In other words, there must be someone cheating in this retest, and with the suspicion between her and Yang, it is impossible for Yang not to do anything.
Thinking of this, Lu Yunqing sighed softly.
At present, there are only six days left before her retest, and she has no time to change the reality, so she can only act at the opportunity.
……
In the blink of an eye, five days passed in a flash.
Several batches of re-examinations, the number of people who pass every day fluctuates around the number of twenty, when there are only ten in the early tens, and the more than twenty-five after the most, someone counted the number of people who passed in the first six batches, adding up to only more than one hundred and forty, and it is not far from the admission quota of Hanmei Academy.
Early the next morning, Hanmei School started the exam as usual, and today is the seventh batch and the last batch of third-grade candidates to re-examine.
In the embroidery examination room, the owner of the embroidery workshop searched for the roster of this batch, and finally fixed on the three words "Lu Jinzhi".
"Is the position of Zi E ......?"
The owner of the embroidery workshop put down the roster and looked up, and found the petite figure sitting in the position and embroidering.
The owner of the embroidery workshop nodded secretly, looking at the speed and angle of the needle, the foundation is quite solid, not like a wasted person, it seems that it is really as the big apprentice said, she thinks too much.
"I thought that the first few batches would be able to see this Lu Jinzhi, but I didn't expect to wait until the last batch, and Lu Yunqing is a second-grade candidate, and the time has to be postponed, and I don't know if it is the eighth batch or the ninth batch......"
The owner of the embroidery workshop frowned, tomorrow the embroidery workshop is going to meet a distinguished guest, I am afraid that there is no time to come, I only hope that Lu Yunqing's re-examination can be in the ninth batch.
If she could, she wanted to personally admonish the little girl, so that she could return to the right path and not steal.
At the same time, the Yang family in the crowd outside the school frowned, and there was a trace of incomprehension in his eyes.
Jin Er didn't go to the house to get Mobao Zhengwen, but participated in the assessment with embroidery and passed the primary election.
"When did that girl's embroidery become so masterful? Embroidery is the only field that He Tangzhi can't set foot in......"
There is dislike in Yang's eyes, and Jin'er has never disobeyed her since she was a child. Of course, she has never harmed her two daughters, but loves her very much and thinks about her two daughters everywhere.
But now Jin'er is a little incomprehensible to her.
