"Still don't understand?"

"The chief examiner and fellow examiner in charge of imperial examination affairs, which one does not have a protégé for the exam, and which one does not have a protégé?"

"Who among the students knows how to dredge the joints, I am from a poor family, I am afraid that even if I want to draw a gourd, I don't have that capital!"

"The imperial court has set up twenty fellow examiners this time, and the examiner doesn't dare to say that the examiners have chopped ten of them, and there must be a clear stream to die in vain, but if they are cut every other time, there will definitely be fish that slip through the net!"

"The examiners are either greedy for money and bribery, or they are bribe-taking, everyone has known these inside information for a long time, but they dare not speak out!"

"I heard that the same examiner Li Yuanjian secretly peddled test questions in the house, and it spread among the tribute students, so they held a banquet in advance to celebrate!"

The more Huang Huatang listened, the more wrong he became, the more these scholars talked, the more evil they became, and if they continued to talk about it, it would not be a matter of corruption in the imperial examination, I was afraid that it would turn into a catastrophe.

These rumors are nothing to circulate among the people, but if they are passed into the palace, with the temper of that master, it will not be over if you don't find out.

At that time, a good test will turn into a disaster!

If it is said that it is not the law to be responsible for being greedy for money and accepting bribes and befriending the powerful, but if Li Yuan's peddling of test questions is true, it will be quite serious.

Buying and selling test questions in advance is even more numbing than cheating in scientific examinations.

According to Huang Huatang's experience all along, if Li Yuanjian really did this kind of thing, it would never be just him.

There must be something deeper hidden in the back that is fueling the troubles, and it is another big case to investigate!

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt the hairs on his back, and asked softly, "Dare to ask who this Li Yuanzhuan is?" ”

This question was just the dissatisfaction in the heart of a scholar in the crowd, and he sighed comfortably, and said proudly: "If you ask others, I may only know a little bit about it, but if you talk about Examiner Li, no one knows him more than me!" ”

These words don't seem to be talking about commenting on the examiner Li Yuanjian, who is peddling exam questions, but like talking about a big man who has made great achievements.

Yun Wuse snorted coldly beside him, which was not surprising.

Since ancient times, it has been handed down to the present day, isn't it strange that those who are proficient in the joint path and are familiar with the road are regarded as talented?

Huang Huatang seemed to hear something in this scholar's words, hesitated for a moment, shrugged his eyebrows in disbelief, and asked:

"What's the matter, do you know the same examiner at your feet?"

"Exactly, under Li's order, Tong Kao is my uncle, I am the tribute student in your mouth, and the family is setting up a banquet, full of friends!"

"Ah, disrespectful...... It turned out to be a relative of the same examiner! Huang Huatang cautiously patted the sycophants and came to a set of killings.

Then he asked tentatively: "I don't know if I have already got the test questions for this exam?" ”

Li Zhiling was praised for being fluttering like a fairy, and was noticed by everyone, and he was a little complacent in his heart, and he didn't hear the knife hidden in Huang Huatang's words at all.

"Naturally, I already know it, so I know it like this!"

"It's really rare to have such an opportunity in life!" Huang Huatang laughed a few times, turned his face and asked Li Zhiling how many people at the same table were: "Presumably a few of them are also like this?" ”

Seeing these tribute students nodding one after another, Huang Huatang was secretly happy in his heart, he couldn't imagine that he was so lucky, seeing a beheading, he actually caught this group of big fish that didn't recruit themselves.

Sure enough, seeing that there were tribute students here, the students who were still indignant just now all wilted all of a sudden, and they must have known that they couldn't afford to provoke them.

Huang Huatang was like a fish in water in this kind of scene, and he flattered Li Zhi's order and said:

"It's a good blessing, an uncle like the examiner must be able to take you to avoid many detours in the officialdom in the future, which is really a blessing from several lifetimes!"

"I am envious, if I am lucky enough to be able to go to officialdom in the future, I hope that a few people will not forget the fate of today...!"

Yun Wuse looked at the person beside him in disbelief, then sneered in his heart, and secretly sat to the side, making up his mind not to trust these mercenary businessmen again.

Businessmen, all flattering villains!

"I'm going to try it this year, and I'm sure I'm going to hit it!" Huang Huatang didn't seem to notice the disgusted eyes of the students, and was still talking.

But the tribute students all laughed.

Li Zhiling asked Huang Huatang to sit beside him, and said: "That's natural, what are the exam questions this time, I already know it by heart, just wait for the big exam, and then leave a name on the gold list, Jinshi and first, no problem!" ”

After some politeness, the Gongsheng had already regarded this businessman who regarded the profit as their own, and the group was about to get up and leave, when Huang Huatang got up and shouted:

"Remember, I will pay for all of Brother Li's expenses today!"

Although people like Li Zhiling don't care about this money, after all, this is a dignitary in front of people, and some people are scrambling to pay you, isn't this more face-saving?

He laughed a few times and walked out of the teahouse first.

"Don't be angry, brother, for my brother is going to do a big job, I'll go to you tonight and tell you the truth."

After Huang Huatang paid the bill, he whispered such a sentence when passing by Yun Wuse, and then changed to that flattering smile and chased out.

Yun Wuse was stunned for a moment, and then pondered.

After the tributes left, the teahouse was restored to its original state, the jubilation was still the same, the students continued to denounce loudly, and the pedestrians on the roadside were still in an endless stream, and the voices inside did not stir up the slightest wave outside.

Huang Huatang walked out of the teahouse and looked around, chased after him and whispered:

"Can my brother pull my brother, my brother is the shopkeeper of Suzhou Juxing, and now the business is not doing well, and I still need to show a clear way."

Li Zhiling was in a very good mood, looked him up and down, and glanced at the Juxing sign handed over with contempt, but he didn't reply.

After walking half a street, Li Zhiling saw that the businessman was still following him, so he smiled and said:

"It's not difficult, it's up to you to make a move."

Huang Huatang's face was full of surprise, and he hurriedly asked, "Really?" ”

Li Zhiling replied softly: "The words have been said, believe it or not, if you miss this time, wait for the next time and the opportunity will change again." ”

The Gongsheng were on their side, gradually surrounding the two of them, Huang Huatang and Li Zhiling's voices became smaller and smaller, and their hand movements became more and more frequent.

As for what he said, even the outermost Gongsheng couldn't hear it.

......

"Master Xu, you are here! I'm so hard to find! ”

As soon as Xu Xianchunfu entered the door, he saw a businessman-like person getting up and welcoming him, and hurriedly took a few steps back.

When he saw someone coming, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Huang Dongjia! Are you in such a hurry to come to Beizhen Fusi, is there something urgent? ”

While talking, sit on a chair and look at a pair of calligraphy and paintings.

Huang Huatang stepped forward and covered the calligraphy and painting with his hand, looked at Xu Xianchun's projected eyes, and said: "This time, if it is done, it will allow Xu Ye to leave a name in history." ”

Xu Xianchun laughed, knocked his hand down, continued to appreciate his calligraphy and painting, and lowered his head and said, "This master is not rare, you can go back." ”

"Then what if you can let Jinyiwei overwhelm the East Factory?"

Hearing this, Xu Xianchun's hand moved, still lowering his head, but his voice became a little strange, and asked, "How long to press?" ”

"After this trip, this year's Jinyi Wei will definitely be the head of the East Factory! As for next year, it depends on your ability..."Huang Huatang smiled, and even Xu Xianchun, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, had some palpitations when he laughed.

There was silence in the hall for a moment, Xu Xianchun put down the calligraphy and painting, and said coldly:

"You don't have to go to the East Factory anymore. This trip, Beizhen Fusi picked it up. ”
