The entire Shuntianfu Township Examination, from the beginning of the question to the final opening of the seal and filling in the list, almost all the intermediate processes were completed under Shen Xi's supervision, except for finding someone to open the seal and compare the papers, those exam papers had left Shen Xi's sight, and the outer curtain official also moved at this time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When Tang Ying heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he said coldly: "Shen Yude, you can see clearly, this volume was commented on by you and Jin Zhongyun, how could it be replaced?" ”

Jin Gui went up to take a closer look, and immediately frowned: "This seems to be ...... It is not a solution scroll selected by this official. ”

To say that the flaw is also in this Xie Yuan volume, Shen Xi and Jin Gui discussed for a long time, and finally decided to set one of the volumes as the Xie Yuan volume.

In fact, at the same level, there are three or four volumes that are comparable, Shen Xi and Jin Gui are indistinguishable, and in the end, it is only after comparing the answers of the five scriptures and the last two that the solution is decided, who knows that this is only a blink of an eye, the volume has been changed, but the red circles and imprints on it are exactly the same as the commentary on the Yuan volume.

At this time, the inner curtain officer and the outer curtain official next to him were all talking.

Shen Xi said that this scroll is not, and even Jin Gui is so sure, but in fact, only Shen Xi and Jin Gui know who Xie Yuanjuan is.

"Jin Zhongyun, are you sure?"

Tang Ying asked at this time, and he was already aggressive.

According to their official positions, Jin Gui and Tang Ying are both positive six products.

But Jin Gui was an official of the Hanlin system and worked as an errand in the Zhan Mansion, while Tang Ying was in the capital, but he was a magistrate. According to the principle of adding at least three levels to the transfer of Beijing officials in the Ming Dynasty, Jin Gui's official position is much higher than Tang Ying's.

But when it comes to the experience of intrigue with others in the officialdom, Tang Ying belongs to the ups and downs, and naturally knows the way of officialdom better than the noble Jin Gui.

So at this time, Tang Ying directly forced each other in a stern tone, just to suppress Jin Gui's momentum.

"This ......"

Being looked at by everyone, Jin Gui was a little embarrassed, and shook his head slightly, "I'm also a little unsure......"

Tang Ying had a slight smug look on his face: "That's it, since even Jin Zhongyun and Shen Yude can't be sure, then this volume ......"

"Wait!"

Shen Xi suddenly raised his hand, "Jin Zhongyun can't be sure, but the official confirms that it is correct, this volume is not the Xie Yuan volume selected by the official, but the volume that was brushed down by the official in the first round of the re-election!" ”

"Huh?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked.

Those who looked at each other with the examiner didn't understand why Shen Xi was so sure. The examiner surnamed Hu widened his eyes and said, "Lord Shen, don't lie about it, we can't afford to be responsible for the crime of privately exchanging exam papers." ”

"You can't afford it? This volume, but you personally selected it, four red circles sent to the official's hands, so that the official directly named him as a lifter, at that time the official read his volume, only to feel bullshit, this kind of volume can actually pass the primary election, you are really blind. ”

Shen Xi spoke at this time, and he didn't leave half a face, "What's even more hateful is that the four red circles at the beginning have now been selected as the Xie Yuan Scroll, and even the red circles on them are a few less, have they been eaten?" ”

The fellow examiners swallowed their saliva and didn't dare to say anything more.

It was clear that even the volume was re-transcribed by the original transcriptionist, and then corrected according to the Xie Yuan volume.

Tang Ying sneered: "Shen Yude should have looked away, or he was bad, there are so many volumes, how can Lord Shen be sure that what he said is not nothing?" ”

Shen Xi said with a smile: "Okay, Tang Tongju, you may not know something, this official has no other skills, but he has the ability to never forget, when he tried it, even Li Ge Lao was impressed." Do you want me to memorize all the exam papers I have taken for you to hear? ”

"Lord Shen, don't be kidding, there are so many volumes...... It's hard to see it all over again, but you ......"

"As the chief examiner, of course, you have to be responsible, this official looks at these papers every day, memorizes the content of the papers, and throws ......them away," Shen Xi said angrily.

"Lord Shen, don't talk about it, if you can recite the articles in this volume, old man...... The old man ate the roll. ”

The examiner surnamed Hu was in a hurry.

Shen Xi smiled and said, "It's not necessary to eat rolls, but the truth still has to be explained, listen well!" ”

Shen Xi immediately began to read aloud the article on the Xie Yuan scroll that he had brushed down with his own hands.

Many people flocked to see if Shen Xi could recite it, and when they found that the content that Shen Xi had memorized was exactly the same, they had to admire, and the last one lowered their heads, ashamed of themselves.

Shen Xi memorized several articles one after another, and they could all correspond accurately, and no one dared to doubt Shen Xi's open-mindedness anymore. He does have the ability to remember!

The same examiner surnamed Hu hid behind the crowd and didn't say a word.

Tang Ying's face was blue and red at this time, he already felt that he couldn't get off the stage, he asked himself to get through all the joints, but there was a problem in Shen Xi and Jin Gui, if Shen Xi and Jin Gui poked the case out, it would definitely set off a huge wave, thinking that the Ministry of Rites would try to solve the case, Cheng Minzheng was just a person who died in prison without evidence, that was an important minister in charge of the Hanlin Academy and the Emperor, in comparison, he was not even a fart if he was sentenced to Tianfu.

"Lord Shen, take a step to speak."

At this time, Tang Ying was also nervous, short of breath, and hurriedly pulled Shen Xi to the side, and said in a consultative tone, "This volume...... It was arranged by the Hou of Shouning himself, and the Hou Ye once said, you and the Hou Mansion of Shouning ...... Isn't there a friendship? ”

Shen Xi smiled dumbly: "It turns out that Tang Tong is from the Shouning Marquis Mansion?" ”

"Exactly."

Tang Ying thought to himself, fortunately, I wrote down Uncle Jianchang's words, otherwise there would really be nothing to do today, he laughed and said, "Lord Shen, since you are all doing things for Lord Hou, then today's matter ......"

Shen Xi said coldly: "Choosing materials for the country, can it make the scholars chill because of a little relationship?" ”

“…… The outside world does not know the final result. Tang Ying also wanted to continue to explain.

Shen Xi shook his head: "Tang Tongju, since you are the Hou Ye's person, this official does not want to pursue this matter anymore, but please find out the volumes that were set before." His Majesty sent his official to preside over the Shuntianfu Township Test, but he didn't say anything...... Let the officer obey whose commands! ”

"This ...... This ......"

Although Tang Ying was angry in his heart, if he wanted to end the matter now, he had to follow Shen Xi's statement, otherwise Shen Xi would stab the matter to the imperial court, and he would not be able to eat and walk around.

It may be possible to kill people and kill people, but it doesn't work to kill Shen Xi, and Jin Gui will be killed together, and the two examiners are dead, even if it's okay, the court will suspect that something is wrong, and then investigate carefully, and ask Shen Xi what he said in public today, then it is not only him Tang Ying who suffers behind it, even the Zhang brothers will be involved, and at that time, he himself will become the one who is killed and killed.

"That'...... Just do what Lord Shen wants. Tang Ying gritted his teeth, what he was thinking at the moment was that he was not afraid of no firewood to burn.

Then Tang Ying hurriedly reconvened the outer curtain officials, especially the sealing officials, and asked them to exchange the rolls that they had secretly replaced just now.

Shen Xi went over and said a few words to Jin Gui, and Jin Gui sighed lightly: "The water of this imperial examination is very muddy, so I'm afraid this is the best result." ”

In such a context, Shen Xi and Jin Gui can't care too much for the time being, it doesn't make much sense to win everyone, the most important thing is to ensure the fairness and justice of this year's Shuntianfu Township Examination, so that those who are really talented can be admitted, which is the right way.

After more than half an hour, the more than 20 exam papers were finally replaced, Shen Xi carefully checked it, and after confirming that it was correct, he began to open the seal.

Every time a seal is opened, a person's name is filled in on the list of laurels, from the last place, that is, the one hundred and thirty-fifth, all the way up until Xie Yuan.

This year's Shuntianfu Township Test, from the beginning to the end, is not shocking.

It looked like Shen Xi had drunk a lot of wine, but in fact, he only drank one or two glasses a night, and he was in good spirits, and he kept standing by to check to make sure that the process of filling in the list was correct.

Tang Ying looked at Shen Xi with shame, before filling in the list, he couldn't go to the Shouning Marquis Mansion to report, and at this time he was already thinking about what kind of punishment he would be punished by Zhang Heling.

"No matter whether you lose your official position, or how much filial piety you need, the most important thing is to save your life."

Tang Ying is just here to protect himself, which is also the reason why he compromised in front of Shen Xi, because it is too big to make a fuss, and it is not good for anyone. But when he looked at Shen Xi, he couldn't help but clench his fists, it was because of Shen Xi that he lost the benefit of a few hundred taels of silver, and he would be condemned by the Zhang brothers, Shen Xi was tantamount to being a roadblock on his way to fortune.

"Lord Shen, are you tired, why don't you go in and rest?" The curtain official next to Tang Ying came over to persuade.

Shen Xi shook his head with a smile: "This official wants to know the ranking of the candidates in this Shuntianfu Township Examination first. ”

The curtain officer smiled and thought, what's the use of knowing? You can't get the word out, so you have to stay here and wait until three days later.

In fact, in addition to supervising, Shen Xi mainly wanted to see if Xie Pi would be on the list.

Based on Shen Xi's understanding of Xie Pi's article, although he may not be able to pass the exam to Xie Yuan, it is still possible to get the top 50 or 30. Xie Pi is a talent, coupled with his unique devilish training, or a relatively fair examination, if Xie Pi can't even lift people, then Shen Xi will feel that his husband can go home and farm.

Finally, when the fourth place was listed, the seal was opened, and Xie Pi's name appeared.

Xie Qian's proud second son was promoted in the examination three years earlier than in history, but he did not rank fourth in Shuntianfu like Xie Yuan in history.

"Huh? This second son of the Xie family...... Isn't it the second son of the Xie Pavilion Mansion? "An external curtain official found clues from Xie Pi's origin and three generations of resumes.

"Isn't it? Xie Ge was born as a champion at the beginning, but now that the second son is in the middle of the move, what is the fuss? This is a scholarly family, a champion family. ”

Someone said, looking at Shen Xi and Jin Gui, "Shen Yude and Jin Zhongyun are both from Dingjia." ”

Dingjia is the first first, Shen Xi is the first champion of the first class, and Jin Gui is the third place in the first class.

Everyone's faces were gloomy, and the names of the last few people were also filled, and the township test was basically over, and all that was left was to report to the imperial court and announce the list.
