Chapter 566: Troubled Times

Hou San's smile was unpleasant, and a jailer stepped forward to make a move.

They have always been ruthless to the prisoners in their cells.

However, as soon as the jailer was about to make a move, he was stopped by Qin Tian.

Then, he looked at Hou San and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Hou San still laughed, and after laughing like this, he said: "I laugh at this world, laugh at this Tang law, laugh at him ridiculous, hahaha......"

Hearing Hou San talk about the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Han Xiao immediately frowned and shouted, "Bold, the laws of the Tang Dynasty, how can you be so contemptuous?" ”

Hou San said: "Contempt? Haha, what about contempt, why was I in prison before Hou San? But I got into a verbal altercation with someone, and I was injured by that person, and then I was put in prison, and it was more than a year, and you know how I spent my time in the cell, and you know what happened to my life when I got out of it? ”

The atmosphere in the interrogation room was a little solemn, and some jailers resisted the urge to beat people, but Qin Tian was listening from the side, seeming to be very interested, and he was not in a hurry at all.

"You must be curious why I killed, right? It's because you locked me up, I'm just a small crime, but you locked me up for more than a year, and when I went out, I found out that my woman actually hooked up with other men, if it weren't for the fact that the laws of the Tang Dynasty were too strict, would my woman be like this? ”

"Phew, what a shameless reason, it's clearly your woman water-based Yanghua, what does it have to do with the laws of the Tang Dynasty?" As the secretary of the Criminal Department, Han Xiao couldn't bear to be despised by someone for the law.

However, Hou San didn't care at all, he didn't have anything to do, so he naturally said whatever he wanted.

"You're right, but I'm sure that if I'm just locked up for a month, my woman will never hook up with other men because of loneliness, but since they have done this kind of thing, they have to pay the price, that's right, I killed them, whether it was Murong Bai or Zhang Sanqian, I killed them."

Hou San pleaded guilty to the crime.

"When I was released from prison, after I found out that my woman was hooking up with Zhang Sanqian, I moved to kill, but I wasn't too anxious, I knew that if I killed Zhang Sanqian, you might soon follow the clues to find me, so in order to confuse you, I killed Murong Bai first, these scholars and scholars, relying on a bit of culture, look good, they bullied women, hooked up with women, killed them, and died innocently......"

When I came out of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, it was already dark.

Qin Tian and Di Zhixun rushed home separately, before parting, Di Zhixun glanced at Qin Tian and said: "Master Hou, there is nothing wrong with using heavy codes in troubled times, but now that the Tang Dynasty has been founded for ten years, it is inevitably a little inappropriate to use heavy codes again, and in the Criminal Department, there is no shortage of unjust, false and wrongful cases, or serious cases, if they are not dealt with in time, I am afraid that such things will continue to happen." ”

After speaking, Di Zhixun turned around and left, many words, he didn't need to say too clearly to Qin Tian, because he believed that Qin Tian was a smart person, and he knew what to do.

Qin Tian went back in the carriage, thinking about Di Zhixun's words, and then showed a light smile.

"This Dickinson is really an interesting person."

----------------------

The first imperial examination in the first year of Zhenguan finally began.

Almost every Chang'an person is paying attention to this matter, and they want to know who can and can't get in.

Early in the morning, scholars and scholars from all over the world came to the examination room one after another.

Before entering the examination room, every scholar needs to be checked, and all things that may become tools for cheating are confiscated.

The whole inspection lasted for an hour, and after an hour, all the candidates were already seated in their seats.

The examination room is not very luxurious, it is just one temporary cubicle after another, which can simply shelter from the wind and rain.

This is also a matter of no choice, there have been too many things that have happened in the past year, and the treasury of the Tang Kingdom is empty like that, it is already very good to have such a place for candidates to take the exam, Li Shimin's imperial study is still leaking, and there is no money to repair it.

After sitting down, the exam was even started, and Kong Yingda sent someone to distribute the test papers to the scholars.

After the scholars got the test papers, they were a little surprised.

"That's a pretty good paper."

"I've never seen such a good paper, it's comfortable to write......"

"This is the paper that Marquis Qin has improved, right?"

Everyone was amazed, but they were soon stopped by Kong Yingda's cough, and everyone didn't dare to hesitate and hurriedly started answering questions.

The paper is good, and the writing is very smooth, and the speed at which these scholars and scholars write is much faster than before.

Ma Zhou stayed in his single room and worked hard to write, although he had a good relationship with Qin Tian, he didn't get the slightest care, but for him, these were not problems.

The Four Books and Five Classics can't help him, and the strategy is even more difficult for him, he Ma Zhou has been following Qin Tian for a long time, and all kinds of governing the country are a little more far-reaching than others' insights.

Ma Zhou is very confident.

At the same time, in the entire examination room, everyone else was also very confident.

Di Zhixun is writing with his head down, and Feng Yi, who exposed the leakage of the imperial examination questions, is also writing with his head down, and even in Feng Yi's opinion, his article is very wonderful, and there is no problem at all to win the first prize and become the champion.

When the liberal arts examination was going on, the martial arts examination was not idle.

In another place in Chang'an City, all the candidates who participated in the martial arts examination were conducting various competitions, of course, these martial arts examinations were different from the ring, in addition to competing with each other, they also had to compete in riding and archery and so on.

And that's not all.

Mounted archery, martial arts and so on into the top 20 people, can be regarded as having the status of Jinshi, however, if you want to win the first place, you have to carry out some other competitions, these competitions, relatively speaking, are more literate, that is, compared with these people's use of the art of war and formations, and then there is the analysis of some combat examples.

In comparison, the martial arts examination is even more troublesome than the liberal arts examination.

But this is easy to understand, civilian officials rule the country, military generals defend the country, civilian officials are incapable, the country is not well governed, military attachés are not capable, they cannot protect the security of the country and the people.

Therefore, if you want to become a jinshi, or even become an official, you must have the ability, so the court naturally does not dare to be careless.

Only those who have military force can be the vanguard of fierce generals, understand the art of war, and know how to fight, so the establishment of any competition project is not without reason and reason.

The liberal arts and martial arts examinations were carried out one after another, and in the palace, Li Shimin had been waiting for news, but at this time, Qin Tian suddenly came to the palace.
