The aggrieved and depressed Qin Hancai tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, Zheng Shijie took two guards to sneak into the room secretly, and split his head and face was a punch and kick, which made Qin Hancai's nose blue and swollen, wailing again and again, but he didn't see the soldiers who patrolled the night to come to the rescue, it turned out that Zheng Shijie withdrew the soldiers early, no matter what happened, no one would save him.

The next day, the officials sent by Zheng Xun returned to the school palace one after another, and each submitted an inspection record, which referred to the names and places of origin of the students, the names and places of origin of the clan relatives, and official products. As for those children of the poor family who were referenced, after the Xiucai exam, Zheng Xun randomly selected twenty or thirty people, and specially sent special people to conduct brief inspections in various places, and fooled around.

In fact, after the examination and examination, when Zheng Xun and Chen Tong were reading the papers, they found a good article that was comparable to Xiang Lin's article, and from a certain point of view, it was even better than Xiang Lin's article. Chen Tong was amazed and suggested that this person's article and Xiang Lin's article be posted at the same time to show the public, Zheng Xun checked that his genealogy was just a lowly student, and the clan relatives were not official families, so he did not agree in any case.

On the second day of Zhang Bang, a corpse was found in the back mountain, this desperate suicide skinny Han Sheng was the person who wrote this shocking article, only lamenting that he was born at the wrong time, his fate was unfair, and he covered up his talents with loess.

In the letter Xiang Lin sent to his mother Liu, the word 'Xu Chao' was also written, and the official was careless when he asked about it, and mistakenly recorded the word 'chao' as the word 'chao', which happened to be exactly the same as the one recorded on the forged genealogy.

God blesses, Zheng Xun will not be suspicious after comparing and checking the genealogy of the Xu family, if the name of the official is recorded as 'Xu Chao', maybe something will happen.

Xiang Lin was framed by Zheng Shijie for assassinating the imperial court official, and Zheng Xun had already removed him from the character register, which meant that Xiang Lin had no chance to be awarded an official position, and all his efforts were in vain.

However, Wang Chong, who was grateful for his old feelings, and Chen Tong, who was guilty, did not hesitate to risk the crime of killing their heads, and both intended to help Xiang Lin Jinshi become an official, so as to thank Xu Zhao for his great kindness and virtue during his lifetime.

"Husband Wang, Dongyang School Palace is the holy land of Benzhou Township School, and in the future, you must be conscientious, carefully controlled, and in the name of Hongsheng Academy, you will inherit the prestige of the Holy Heaven." Zheng Xun summoned Wang Chong into the hall and instructed him to return home the day after tomorrow.

"The adults are here to teach, the school palace is shining, and the lower officials will prepare a thin banquet tomorrow, can the adults enjoy their faces and have a few drinks?" Wang Chong invited with a smile, but then lowered his brows again, Zheng Xun smiled and agreed, he didn't want to miss such a leisurely banquet.

Zheng Xun was anxious to return to the mansion, and summoned Chen Tong to submit the character booklet of Situ Mansion for the final inspection, which recorded the hometown, name, surname, clan and official character of the students in this year's big examination, the grade of the clan and the official character, the talent and morality, and the final grade.

The grades are divided into nine grades: upper, upper, upper, upper, middle, lower, lower, and lower, which is the most important item to determine the level of a student's official rank, but it still has to be reviewed by Situ Fu and the final decision, and the result will not change much.

However, the dynasty is unfair, and the family background basically determines the fate of the student's career, and those who are born in a poor family, no matter how high the line comment is, can only be set in the lower grade, and those who are born in a wealthy family can also be ranked in the upper grade if they are not in good shape.

Xiang Lin Meng was unjustly responsible for the assassination of the officer, Chen Tong expected that Zheng Xun might have removed him from the register, and when he checked it, he deliberately paid attention to Xiang Lin's name, and was indeed removed by Zheng Xun.

"My lord, why is there no name for Xu Xianglin in the register?" Chen Tong asked bravely, and Zheng Xun suddenly sank his face: "What did the treacherous person mention him to do?" When he is taken to the city prison the day after tomorrow, he will be told to confess his sins! Chen Tongyi was shocked, choked his throat and didn't dare to say more.

Chen Tong deliberately flipped through the booklet slowly, thinking about it again and again, and after a while, Zheng Xun was tired and sleepy, holding his cheeks and resting on the desk. After a while, Chen Tong saw that he was asleep and did not wake up, so he quietly tore off a page of the book and put it into his arms, this page just recorded Qin Hancai's words, and tore off a blank page, rolled it slightly and put it into the cuffs.

Chen Tong didn't dare to sneak away, and woke up Zheng Xun to review the correctness, Zheng Xun glanced at him in a daze, Chen Tong put the book on the desk and left, Zheng Xun yawned and narrowed his eyes.

Without further ado, Chen Tong hurriedly went to find Wang Chong, and after the two conspired, they asked You Mao to help, and You Mao copied Zheng Xun's font again, and wrote Xiang Lin's line on white paper. Wang Chongsi thought that if the grade was set too high, it would inevitably be discovered by Zheng Xun when he became an official in the future, so he set a 'middle and middle' grade that was neither high nor low.

The next night, the jade wheel hangs in the sky, the silver sand dots the sky, the mountain breeze is slight, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing, it is the time to put the words of joy, Wang Chong set up a banquet in the school palace, and all the students can also enter the table. Zheng Xun was in a cheerful mood, drunk a lot, and after a while, he got drunk, and all the students also drank and laughed, chatting about the past and the present, and drank one by one, drunk like mud.

"Brother Shijie, a few of us are reluctant to leave you..." Zhang Xiang poured a sip of wine, and howled as he spoke, and everyone pointed at him and laughed. Brother Shijie, how can we live without you and our brothers! Zhao Cheng drank red ears, and his legs and feet fell on Zheng Shijie, Zheng Shijie was also drunk and his head was dazed, and he was knocked under the table.

Zheng Shijie got up and scolded: "You... You two stupid pigs, sooner or later I will be planted in your hands... The two hurriedly helped him sit down, and everyone laughed again. "Childe, drinking wine without the company of beauties, just like a meal without salt, there is no taste at all, don't you live up to the beauty of this good day?" One student said drunkenly.

"Brother Shijie, why don't you bring the autumn baby lady and dance for everyone to help the wine?" Zhang Xiang leaned up his face and said, and everyone coaxed and said yes. These people all covet the beauty of autumn babies, but they covet Zheng Shijie's majesty on weekdays, and they dare not speak presumptuously, and want to take this opportunity to encourage them.

"Presumptuous! Qiu Ying is the woman that this son has a crush on, how can you and other pickled fools be able to tease! If you dance, you can only dance for your son! Zheng Shijie staggered up suddenly, knocked over the wine cup and dishes, frightened everyone and didn't dare to say anything.

Zheng Shijie drank a big bowl violently, and fell to the ground with a drunken laugh, Zhang Xiang and Zhao Cheng hurriedly set him up, and the three of them staggered away while talking nonsense.

"Brother..."Chen Xiu put a jar of wine on the table.

"Brother..."Xiang Lin got up and brushed his forehead.

"There is laughter and laughter outside, people are happy and drunk, why don't you go and have some fun?"

"Brother Xian is not at the banquet, the dishes are fragrant, and the wine is tasteless..."

Xiang Lin's clothes are dusty, his hair is messy, his body is getting thinner, his eyes are as deep as the abyss, every time he thinks of Ziying's pure smiling eyes, the shallow pear vortex, and the unforgettable autumn and winter that accompanied her, all of which make him sad and joyful, warmth and pain hit his heart again and again, the stronger the love, the deeper the pain, and the more tormented the heart.

Zheng Xun was drunk, and was helped by Wang Chong to rest in his room, and Chen Tong took advantage of Zheng Xun's intention to gather all the guards in the palace together, and rewarded them with wine and food, and the guards were also drunk and stared, swaying, and retreated to sleep.

After drinking a few cups, Chen Xiu hurriedly resigned, walked to the backyard and took a look, the banquet was scattered, the table was tilted and stools were overturned, and the wine cups and dishes were scattered all over the ground. Chen Xiu thought that the time had come, and sneaked into the upper room where Zheng Xun lived, and glued the pages in the book.
