In his anxiety, Wu Jie's heart moved, so he raised his head and saw that Mingyuan was full of people standing upstairs.

It turned out that the examiners had been standing upstairs all the time, and they would only go back to the lobby when the candidates had entered. I heard a commotion downstairs just now, and I all stood to the side to watch the excitement.

In this group of people, Wu Jie saw Xu Jie, the second assistant of the cabinet.

His heart immediately moved, Xu Jie's protégé Xinjin Zhixian asked Tao Ke to be his mentor. If you really talk about the origin, he Wu Jie can also be regarded as a subordinate of Xu Ge's old family.

The officials and literati of the Ming Dynasty all paid attention to their backgrounds, and maintained a large civil and official group with their protégés and the same year as a link. One is prosperous, one is lost.

It can be said that Wu Jie's face is also the face of Xu Jie's lineage.

Of course, Xu Ge doesn't recognize Wu Jie, the protégé of this protégé, but it's another matter.

In the eyes of ordinary people, with Xu Ge's old and good personality, I am afraid that he may not be willing to come forward.

But Wu Jie knew that this old man looked kind on the surface, and he was a person who didn't care about anything. But this is just an illusion he deliberately pretended, just because his current forbearance made Yan Dang relax his vigilance, which dealt a fatal blow at the critical moment and brought down Yan Song's father and son.

If you don't want to be humiliated by the hands of villains today, you really have to rely on this Xu Ge Lao.

Thinking of this, Wu Jie immediately raised his head and shouted: "Elder Xu Ge, Elder Xu Ge, how can we be a seed of study, how can we be swept away and suffer such a great humiliation." Zhao Wenhua Zhao embezzled military salaries when he was the governor of the southeast front, and he was greedy for the military merits of his colleagues, thinking that he was a step forward.

The Son of Heaven knew that this person was a corrupt and ignorant official, and removed one of his official positions.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhao became the vice president of this session.

The dignified country is dominated by such a despicable person, which has never been heard of in Jiajing for 40 years, and it is a big joke in the world.

Such a despicable villain actually became the chief examiner of our waiting. Thinking that such a villain would be Wu Jie's mentor in the future, Jie was deeply ashamed. This will try, don't rely on it, say goodbye! ”

He dragged his sleeves and turned around to leave.

Wu Jie's hand made everyone dumbfounded, since the Ming Dynasty, the reader has been cold for ten years, and Risi also wants to look forward to the day when he enters the examination room. fantasized about stepping on the dragon gate, worth a hundred times, and no one in the world knows you. But he never expected that Wu Jie, such a talented person, would say that if he didn't take the test, he wouldn't take the test.

Moreover, after entering the examination room, I disagreed with the examiner.

If it is spread out, will not the world be shaken?

At that time, others will only say that Wu Jiexin is arrogant, chic and calm, and regards fame and fortune as dung, but he can gain a greater reputation.

As for Zhao Wenhua, he has become a pure negative character who is jealous and jealous.

Moreover, if a serious exam becomes like this, the imperial court will definitely pursue it, and examiners such as Zhao Wenhua and even Xu Jie will also have a lot of trouble.

Wu Jie's unhesitating hand made the rest of the readers excited. People have read the sage books all their lives, and there is a lot of blood in their chests, and they all shouted at the same time: "Yes, let people like Zhao Wenhua be our examiners, a certain disdain!" ”

"No test!"

"Let's go, go home!"

Hundreds of arms raised in the air.

Suddenly, someone with a noisy temperament pushed the exam basket to the ground and threw the contents everywhere in a mess.

The noise grew louder and louder.

Zhao Wenhua also knew the power of it, and shouted: "Rebellion, rebellion, come on, give me a hard ......" His body was weak, and he couldn't catch it in one breath, so he stretched out his hand to cover his chest and arched down, and his lips instantly turned blue.

The soldiers behind Zhao Wenhua didn't look good, and they all rushed forward and gave Zhao Ren a hammer back, and a smooth breath. Some people even carried sticks, hesitating whether to step forward and beat people up. ..., but these candidates are all famous masters, and Lord Zhao's words just now were not complete, and I don't know whether he was saying "give me a hard beating" or "scold me hard," or "persuade me to come back." ”

It's an adjective ruthlessly, but the verb that follows it is not easy to guess, and if you guess wrong, you may not be able to eat and walk around.

The scene suddenly became a mess.

"Quiet!"

At this time, a loud sound came through, and this one echoed like a thunderbolt over the empty chalk field, stirring up bursts of echoes.

Everyone quieted down, and when they looked up, it was Xu Jie, Xu Ge Lao.

I saw him standing upstairs with his hands behind his back, his face was majestic, and his whole body exuded a powerful momentum.

Everyone didn't expect that the honest people who have always been kind would have such a majestic moment, and they all quieted down at the same time.

After a while, only the candidates gave up their hands in twos and threes: "Pavilion Lao! ”

"President!"

"What kind of fuss, such an occasion, such a sacred and solemn place, how can you wait for a roaring noise?" Xu Jie shouted: "How can you come when you say you come, and leave when you say you go." The imperial examination is such a big deal, how can it be regarded as child's play? Wu Jie, you are too disrespectful! ”

Wu Jie saw that Xu Jie finally spoke, and his heart was relieved. On the surface, it seemed that Xu Ge's face was cold, but Wu Jie still heard a trace of concern in his tone. Otherwise, if you make such a move just now, you will be locked in a cell if you change to someone else, and as soon as the exam is over, you will be handed over to Shuntianfu for punishment.

"Xu Xiang, the attic must have seen the situation just now. Lord Zhao said that there was a suspicion of cheating in his later life, and I sat upright and upright. If it's okay for other things, this matter is related to my name, and please return Wu Jie to an innocence, otherwise, there will only be one death! ”

Zhao Wenhua came over in one breath and shouted: "What a crazy student, someone is coming, take it for me!" ”

"Wait!" Xu Jie shouted again: "The original appearance has its own decision. ”

After speaking, he walked down from the upper floor with a group of examiners.

"I've seen Xu Xiang." Everyone stepped forward at the same time to salute.

Xu Jie said kindly: "Let's be exempt." ，、

He glanced at the scribe again and said, "I have seen the situation just now. You love the poems of Wu Jie, love the house and Wu, it is human nature. But even so, the system cannot be abolished. Especially in the imperial examination, there is no such thing as power. The search is the search.

In this way, it will not be criticized, and it can be regarded as the reputation of Wu Jie. Otherwise, the spread will go out, even if Wu Jie wins the promotion in the future, the world will have doubts, and even doubt Wu Jie's virtue. But it hurt him. You say, isn't that the truth? ”

Seeing that the elder was so kind, the scribe was moved in his heart, and couldn't help crying: "The elder is right. ”

Zhao Wenhua hit the snake and attached the stick, and shouted: "Yes, the elder of the pavilion is right, someone is coming, search Wu Jie, and give this official a little more careful!" ”

His eyes were full of pride, and he looked at it with resentment: Wu Jie, you have been making trouble for a long time, and you have gone around in a circle, and it is not going to fall into my hands. This official has also led soldiers, and some of them are means, so I'm going to let you see how good I am later!

……

The uproar on the side of Mingyuan Building just now was naturally seen by the high arch and Wan Wenming in the building.

After dinner, Gao Gong and Wan Wenming still came upstairs and sat in front of the window leisurely sipping fragrant tea.

There was no light in the building, and both of them were waiting quietly. As soon as the exam questions arrived, they immediately rushed in with someone and searched the exam room.

What exactly are they doing in Wu Festival, because they are far away, and it is night, so they naturally can't see clearly.

Gao Gong smiled and said to Wan Wenming: "Lord Wan, that person seems to be Wu Jie, and he seems to be in trouble. ..., Wan Wenming lowered his eyelids: "If you return to Enxiang, it is Wu Jie Wu Shizhen." But his hand trembled slightly.

"You seem to care about your friend? ,、The high-arched eyes are frighteningly bright in the dark。

Wan Wenming: "As a friend, I naturally care." ”

At this time, Xu Jie's loud shout came, Wan Wenming's hand trembled, and the hot tea bumped out, but he didn't dare to wipe it.

But Gao Gong's next words made him almost unable to hold the cup in his hand.

Gao Gong said coldly: "King Jing stays by the side of the Son of Heaven all day long, so he will naturally be able to get the exam questions." But Wu Jie is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he may not have a chance. Later, if he is found to be suspicious, he will not be spared. ”

After a long time, Wan Wenming said: "Enxiang, Wu Shizhen is talented, and he is the first name Xie Yuan in the township exam, does he need to cheat?" ”

Gao Gong ignored Wan Wenming, and suddenly smiled lightly: "What a good Xu Ge elder, a person who swallows water like warm on weekdays." At the critical moment, it was as if he was a different person, maybe this was his true nature. ”

He suddenly had a vigilance in his heart, Yan Song had fallen out of favor, and he was old, and it was only a matter of a few years for him to retire. As soon as he retired, the vacant position of the first assistant was unexpectedly between Xu Jie and him.

Originally, Gao Gong decided that with Xu Ge's indisputable temperament, he must have no interest in the position of first assistant.

He also swore to this position, but when he saw the majesty of Xu Jie, his heart moved, and he raised his vigilance.

In real history, Gao Gong was a man who was keen on power, and after the fall of Yan Song, he fought with Xu Jie for several years. In the end, he finally defeated Xu Ge Lao and sat on the throne of Shoufu.

Of course, after that, Gao Gong was overturned by Zhang Juzheng, Feng Bao, and Concubine Li, the troika of Wanli's New Deal.

But that's a story for another time.

From this, it can be seen that Gao Gong is a combative and tough person.

Wan Wenming was silent for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Enxiang, the examination room is presided over by Xu Xiang, so we rushed in like this, why don't we go ......."

The fact that a cabinet member wants to lead troops to make trouble for the cabinet assistant is a truly appalling situation. It can be said that as long as Gao Gong appears, even if he completely tears his face with Xu Jie, what will be the result if things really develop to this point?

Wan Wenwen thought of this and was terrified in his heart.

"Don't be afraid!" Gao Gong sneered: "The law of the country is like a mountain, no matter who it is, it can't cover the bright and bright land of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

"Be gracious." Now that he has gotten on a high-arched boat, Wan Wenming can only go one way to the dark, and nothing else can be cared about.

Still, he quietly glanced over to the chalk. Because of the distance, the people over there only had black spots the size of ants, but Wan Wenming could still easily find Wu Jie out of the crowd.

Wan Wenming was worried in his heart: Shizhen, Shizhen, you must not have anything!. ）
