Only then did Shen Xi know that there was an accident in the city, and it was he who was named the head of the case in this government test.

To talk about this incident, the fuse was that the prefect Gao Mingcheng could have taken enough 100 people in the indefinite government examination, but only 50 people were admitted, which made the candidates below extremely dissatisfied. There are many speculations in private, the most important of which is that Gao Mingcheng took advantage of this government test to accept bribes.

Candidates don't hear anything outside the window, their social experience is extremely thin, they are the most easily agitated people, and their hearts are full of resentment, and they believe the rumors after listening to them.

After Shen Xi was named the head of the case, the anger of the candidates completely exploded.

We have been studying hard for one or two decades, but we can't pass the test for a ten-year-old doll, what is this not bribery?

As soon as things fermented, these candidates couldn't sit still.

But after all, these are helpless scholars, and the so-called useless scholars are scholars, even if they are dissatisfied and complain a few words, or say that they want to go to the provincial capital to complain, they are just shouting and will not put it into practice at all.

But a few days ago, the Chamber of Commerce headed by Hui Niang and the people of Fucheng demonstrated in front of the government because they were dissatisfied with the oppression of the "Dry Road Gang", and as a result, the government compromised and vigorously cleared the entrance of the "Dry Road Gang" in the city. The candidates looked at it, ouch, this trick is good, we have to learn it.

The businessmen of the lower ninth rank gathered together and ran to the government to make trouble, and the government should be cautious, although we have no merit, but we are also scholars, and your government can't ignore it, right?

As a result, on the third day of the fifth lunar month, the day after the government tried to issue a long case, about 2,300 candidates in the city gathered together to make trouble outside the government office, claiming that they wanted the government to give them an "explanation."

“…… These people know the location of our pharmacy, if they come over, it will be unfavorable to Xiaolang to take advantage of the chaos, and you will also step forward to block it. ”

After Hui Niang explained the matter, she left in a hurry, apparently looking for someone to mediate.

Shen Xi had just gone up to the second floor and glanced out of the window. There were already a few ill-intentioned people strolling around at the door of the pharmacy, looking like candidates who had inquired about the location of the pharmacy and were about to come over to pick quarrels and provoke trouble.

Shen Xi didn't believe that these scholars had the courage to trespass into private houses, but now the law does not blame the public, and a group of candidates are angry. Some things have to be guarded against.

At the same time, candidates outside the government are gradually gathering.

At first, there were only thirty or forty candidates who contacted the past to make trouble, but it didn't take long for it to grow to 200 people, and among the candidates who failed to make the list were both local to Changting County and counties below Tingzhou Prefecture that had not yet left the prefecture.

As long as it is a candidate who fails to participate in this government examination. After hearing about this, they basically went to the government to support and strengthen their prestige. By the time the sun was setting in the west in the afternoon, more than 300 candidates for the government examination had gathered outside the government office, and together with the onlookers who did not know the truth, the outside of the government office had been surrounded by water.

Shen Xi looked at the people on the street who were rushing to the government office, probably because he was going to join in the fun, and muttered in his heart: "This posture is not right, if the government is quiet, it won't really deprive me of the head of the case, right?" ”

Shen Xi immediately came down from upstairs. called Xiu'er to the staircase in the back hall, and ordered Xiu'er to go to the carriage and horse shop to call Song Xiaocheng over.

Not long after, Song Xiaocheng trotted all the way in from the back door of the pharmacy and bowed respectfully to Shen Xi.

Since Shen Xi used a strategy to frame Lei Wu of the "Dry Road Gang", coupled with a series of actions that followed, he used the power of the government to wipe out the "Dry Road Gang", Song Xiaocheng admired Shen Xi so much.

Now that Song Xiaocheng is in Fucheng, he is already a small figure, and the "Waterway Gang" basically obeys his orders. And now he is still preparing for the carriage and horse shop and the "carriage and horse gang", and he may have the final say on the entire Fucheng Road in the future.

"Sixth brother, I heard that there are no candidates making trouble at the government office. I need you to do something right now. Shen Xi said with a serious face.

Song Xiaocheng asked in surprise: "Little shopkeeper, don't you want me to ...... Hit people in the past, right? This...... This is not appropriate, in front of everyone's eyes, the Carriage and Horse Gang has just been established, don't you want us to be remembered by the government? ”

Shen Xi frowned: "Who told you to beat someone?" ”

Song Xiaocheng smiled bitterly: "I heard from the brothers that these people seem to be a little bit of a case leader for the little shopkeeper...... Opinion. Or, wait for the government to solve it on its own? ”

Shen Xi shook his head, asked Song Xiaocheng to come closer, and whispered a few words in Song Xiaocheng's ear. Song Xiaocheng shrank back: "This is okay?" ”

Shen Xi smiled: "Speaking of which, we are also helping to solve the problem. Go quickly, and remember not to show your bottom. ”

Song Xiaocheng knew that he wasn't going to beat someone, and suddenly felt that this matter was too commonplace, and it was upside down.

……

……

Outside the government office, all the candidates were sit-in and demonstrating.

More than 300 candidates for the government examination, as if agreed, wore white cloth on their heads, sat on the ground, and made a posture of wanting to fight the government to the end.

There are also a few leaders in front of them, who are spitting stars to tell the anger in their hearts, and saying that this government examination must be "retaken".

“…… We studied hard in the cold window, but it was not as good as the few hundred taels of silver that the little fart baby gave to the government, and the lord of the mansion was good, only recognized the silver and did not recognize the learning, so he ordered his case, so where did our Tingzhou Mansion become? Whoever has the money can pass the government test, and what is the use of waiting for me to study diligently......"

Maybe these candidates were too excited when they counted the crimes of the government, and one of them fainted at the moment.

The side helped the person to the side, and even the doctor was not invited, and then went back and continued to raise his arms and shout. In fact, what these people said was not for the examinees, because all the examinees had heard that there was a phenomenon of bribery in this government examination, and these people were completely saying it to the onlookers who did not know the truth, so as to win the sympathy of public opinion.

"If we don't retake the government exam this time, we won't leave, and we will sit here to the end!"

"That's right, sit to the end, let the prefect come out, we have to talk to Lord Fuzun!"

"If Fuzun doesn't come out for a day, we won't leave for a day!"

The candidates were noisy, they were also very smart, they just sat quietly and shouted slogans, and they didn't really attack the government office, so that the officers at the gate of the government office did not dare to do anything to this group of scholars without the orders of the officials.

Even if these candidates have not yet made a name for themselves, the status of scholars in these years is not comparable to ordinary people, not to mention who knows if there are a few people with identity backgrounds?

Time passed little by little, and when I saw Shen Shi, if I continued to stalemate like this, it was estimated that the matter would not be solved until sunset.

At this moment, Song Xiaocheng took a few brothers who were very smart and loud to the street outside the mansion.

“…… Words to shout in a moment. You remember, if the crowd doesn't move, you move forward with it, and wait for the trouble to start. You guys withdraw immediately, if anyone is caught, don't mess with me in the future, I can't afford to lose that face! ”

Song Xiaocheng followed Shen Xi's instructions, first explained the matter clearly, and waved his hand. And the men he brought with him scattered into the crowd.

At this time, a figure in his fifties, dressed in a Confucian shirt and holding a folding fan in his hand, came out of the gate of the mansion, and it was estimated that it was the master of the Kochi Mansion. ”

One of the candidates who took the lead raised his arms and shouted: "No, if the Kochifu doesn't give us an explanation." We are definitely not leaving! ”

"Never go, never go......"

The candidates below seem to form a force, to a large extent, they are the merchants and ordinary people of the Chamber of Commerce who came to make trouble in front of the government a few days before school, and this was the one used at that time, and the final effect seems to be good. However, the last demonstration, with Shen Xi behind the scenes, was organized and disciplined, and it can be said that there is a basis for advancing and retreating. These people are nothing more than a rabble, impromptu and ignorant of the gist of the demonstration. Make a poor imitation.

Just when the two sides were deadlocked, suddenly a voice broke out in the crowd: "The prefect of Tingzhou mourns the conscience, and I live and die with the scholars!" ”

shouted over there: "The dog prefect wants to shield the thief, we will fight with him!" ”

As soon as the words fell. Someone shouted again: "The dog prefect is inside, rush in, rush in!" ”

Originally, the order was acceptable, but after these shouts, first the onlookers became noisy, and then the group of candidates who were sitting quietly stood up. Launched an assault on the entrance of the palace.

"I live and die with the scholars......"

In the back, it's basically like this, the scholar is enthusiastic, and you still care that you are the yamen of the imperial court? Lao Tzu is unhappy, and he wants to go in and reason with you.

Originally, there were a few officials outside the yamen to maintain order, and they also felt that a group of scholars were just a group of scholars, and they were talking and cannoning, and they were more cowardly than one by one.

Who knew that this group of scholars was instigated and provoked, and the shot was really not ordinary ruthless, at first the officials wanted to use a killing stick to stop them, but the candidates who rushed up waved their fists and hit these officials in the face, and the officials were pushed to the corner of the wall, and were punched and kicked by this group of angry candidates.

"Rebellion, rebellion, Tingzhou Mansion Shizi rebelled!" Just when the situation was out of control, this very discordant sound came from the crowd out of nowhere.

Originally, the government was still calm, but this trouble, the matter was big, dozens of government officials, regardless of whether they were on duty or not, all came out to drive away the candidates, and the sticks were beaten hard, plus the officials who were transferred from the county government, they were stunned to stick to the gate of the government under the impact of hundreds of candidates.

"I live and die with the scholars...... no matter who shouts this sentence again, they are all the characters who are hit by the officials, and as soon as the voice is shouted, the stick has already beckoned.

"Me and ...... Damn......"

At first, the people also wanted to join in the fun, and this kind of thing was rare in a hundred years, and who could usually go to the prefect's yamen to see it?

But after the officials brandished their sticks and beat them, the people slipped away much faster than the scholars.

At the back, only the group of scholars remained at the entrance of the entire government office, surrounded by more than a hundred officials. There was a team leader shouting: "Who took the lead, who took the lead?" ”

"you!" The shoes flew out.

"Boy, I'll catch you now, don't run, this kid is not wearing shoes. Drag it out and beat it to death! ”

"Poof! Burst! ”

"Wow...... This official brother, I didn't throw it, my shoes are long gone. Wow, I don't dare anymore! ”

It was originally a good sit-in demonstration, but in the end it evolved into a full martial arts, even if there were many candidates, but after all, they relied on a breath, and when the momentum was weak, where were they the opponents of the officials with the guys in their hands? The officials who had been injured by the impact of the examinees just now were very angry, and the sticks beckoned directly to the examinees.

All sorts of jumble sounds are intertwined.
