Joint words, you bought it, I also bought it, why did you spend the same price, you can win, I will be named Sun Shan?

Such emotions continued to spread among the candidates for no more than half an hour, and the candidates, led by the Zhejiang students of the Qiantang Hall, were instantly divided into two factions: the middle and the unsuccessful. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The two factions fought against each other, from students of the same year, to undying enemies. The chaos arose for a while, and the Shuntian Mansion Yamen, which received Wei Shui's communication, did not send people out to maintain law and order in Beijing at the first time.

Qiantang Hall.

Mo Da told Wei Shui about the situation outside, and Wei Shui nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, don't mess up, follow our plan, and complete it step by step." After that, he asked, "Is there a reaction from the cabinet?" ”

Mo Da replied: "The news that has just come from the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion is that the cabinet has sent someone to apply for Shuntian Mansion and ask Lord Wang to send someone to quell the chaos immediately!" In addition, the cabinet also sent people to stop the candidates on the street, saying that if they made trouble again, they would cancel the candidates who had won the high school this time, and it would also affect their future careers. ”

"Hmph, naïve." When Wei Shui said this, he didn't feel strange at all when he heard it in Mo Da's ears. These guys in the cabinet are indeed naïve enough, people make moves, and you just dismantle them? also tried some stupid tricks that he didn't know what to do, "Okay, since the cabinet has to tear their faces, there is no need to give them face anymore." Let's get our hands dirty! Don't worry about it, make it bigger, and we'll have fun. ”

Mo Da awe-inspiring obeyed his orders and went down to command. Wei Shui leaned back in the chair by the window, his eyes slightly closed, and he smiled.

Under the guidance of the Qiantang Guild Hall, the matter intensified, and even some beyond Wei Shui's imagination, until the afternoon, the street was full of brawling candidates, many candidates were injured, and even a candidate from Shaanxi was killed on the spot.

Such a thing can be said to have never been seen at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and it has already made the cabinet anxious. And immediately afterwards, although the Shuntian Mansion sent people, it frequently appealed to the bitter bitterness, saying that the candidates were all protégés of the Son of Heaven, and there were many of them, and the Shuntian Mansion had few officials, and it was simply more than enough to be able to control it.

The cabinet naturally applied for Shuntianfu again, but before the text was sent, the Dengwen drum outside the noon gate suddenly sounded.

The moment Yang Tinghe heard the drums of Dengwen, he realized that something was going on! It's really a big deal!

When the Ming Dynasty was founded, several generations of emperors attached great importance to Dengwen Drum, and when the imperial city was built, such a one was set up outside the noon gate. In order to ensure that the drum was not beaten indiscriminately, a full-time guard was also sent to the imperial history. The drum is not allowed unless there is a great injustice or a secret situation, but once someone beats the drum, the imperial historian must immediately introduce it to the palace and meet the emperor.

Zhu Houxi got Wei Shui's ventilation and already knew that there would be such a thing. I changed into a more solemn court dress early and waited anxiously in the hall. When the drums sounded, he immediately ordered Huang Jin, summoned hundreds of officials, and summoned the drummers!

said that it was to convene hundreds of officials, but Zhu Houxi actually called Wei Shui, an official who was not an official who was named 'To a Zhenren'. not only called into the palace, but also took him into the palace with him.

In the palace, Wei Shui stood under the imperial steps, and Yanran was the favored minister of the Son of Heaven.

After Zhu Houxi sat down, he swept around the hall, and when he saw Yang Tinghe's face, his mood could be described as extremely comfortable. Lian Yi, when his eyes turned to Wei Shui, he smiled even more, to show that he was very satisfied with Wei Shui's performance.

If it weren't for Wei Shui's plan, if you want to see Yang Tinghe's expression, I'm afraid it would take a lot more effort!

"Who's drumming? If you have any grievances, tell me about them, and I will definitely make decisions for you. Zhu Houxi asked in a raised voice.

Among the group of officials in this hall, the only one who did not wear an official uniform was the candidate who played the drum, and he was also the representative of the candidates in the first year of Jiajing, a person from Shaoxing, Zhejiang, named Qiu Cheng.

Qiu Cheng is not the candidate who buys the 'joint word', but the one who does not get the 'joint word' among the candidates who thinks that they are very talented, but in fact their skills are not as good as others. After such a fair marking, a person like him who is not as skilled as others is naturally famous for Sun Shan. But he doesn't think that his skills are inferior, he just thinks that it is bad luck.

But when the contradictions and conflicts caused by the 'joint word' intensified, he didn't feel that his luck was bad, but that he felt that he had been deceived. It turns out that all people rely on cheating to get it? No wonder, I was only eight years old, but I lost the election, it turned out to be because of this!

When he saw how many candidates were cheating, Qiu Cheng was completely anxious! Only then did he join forces with some people who thought the same as him, and beat the drum.

Of course, his ability to beat the Dengwen drum smoothly is also inseparable from Wei Shui. Otherwise, if the drums are so good, wouldn't someone beat them every day?

After Qiu Cheng told the matter angrily, Zhu Houxi lowered his face and asked, "Is what this scholar said true?" Ladies and gentlemen, I have chosen scholars by the imperial examination, and since the time of the founding of Taizu, such a bad thing has never happened! Now, since the people have made a fuss, they must not be perfunctory! No matter what the truth is, we must thoroughly investigate it and never tolerate it! ”

Although Zhu Houxi did not rush to finalize the case, he had already believed Qiu Cheng's words.

Yang Tinghe handed over his eyes and asked the undergraduate examiner, and Hubu Shangshu Sun handed it over to speak. And the deputy chief examiner, Yang Yiqing, the secretary of the ministry, stood up first and reported: "Return to Your Majesty!" The old minister had already discovered the strange when he was reading the file, but because there was no evidence, and Lord Sun had been blocking him, he didn't dare to report it without authorization! ”

"Oh? Strange? Zhu Houxi said, glanced at Sun Jiao, whose face was not very good-looking, and said, "Let's talk about it, what's wrong?" ”

"Yes." Yang Yiqing agreed, "When I was reading the papers, Lao Chen saw three tone words that are not widely used on weekdays in more than eighty percent of the test papers. Moreover, the location of the appearance is strikingly similar. At first, Lao Chen thought it was a coincidence, and then thought it was cheating, but after reading all the test papers, he felt that there would be such a coincidence? And plagiarism in the field, probably not so many candidates will copy the same, right? The old minister has no evidence, so he does not dare to report it, and if he is suspected of dereliction of duty, please ask His Majesty to punish him. ”

The corners of Zhu Houxi's mouth smiled shallowly, and his eyes glanced at Wei Shui.

Wei Shui stood up at the right time to fan the flames and said: "There really is any 'joint word', right?" Your Majesty, the grass people have heard a lot in the market these days, and I thought it was a rumor! It's just that this person who has done something bad is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door? ”
