Rong Yan really didn't expect that someone would do this kind of thing for the sake of profit, if those who spent money were admitted, then Rong Yan's imperial examination system would be useless, not only making people feel that the law was useless, but also cooling the hearts of scholars.

"Come on, this matter is important, we must investigate it carefully, and all the people involved, without exception, will be dealt with strictly." Rong Yan was furious and called out all the relevant personnel of the investigation, he suppressed his anger and told everyone the importance of this investigation.

Everyone left, Rong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, he hadn't been so angry for a long time, this time people were just for small interests, that is, to pull the people back into dire straits, if people didn't follow the rules, then all the efforts made by Rong Yan were in vain, and the problems left over from the Holy Mart Kingdom made him unbearable.

Rong Yan asked Song Jiang to be locked up, and let people monitor in case Song Jiang had accomplices, the more Rong Yan thought about this matter, the more strange it became, he rubbed his temples with one hand, thinking about the whole case, and couldn't help frowning.

At this time, a pair of familiar and slender hands applied to Rong Yan's forehead, Rong Yan turned his head and saw that it was Zhao Yunling, and his heart slowly calmed down, and he said slowly: "Yunling, I'm a little tired, I really want to give up here." Rong Yan's voice was hoarse, and her chapped lips showed that her master was troubled.

Only when Zhao Yunling was there, Rong Yan could relax, Rong Yan suddenly turned his head to look at Zhao Yunling, although Rong Yan smiled, he was still tired at this time.

"I'm sure you can, I've been standing behind you, no matter what time it is." Zhao Yunling walked up to Rong Yan and smiled, while pressing Rong Yan's head, he looked at Rong Yan's face, his words were gentle, but he was held in Rong Yan's arms, as long as Rong Yan was there, Zhao Yunling felt that everything would be fine.

In order to let Rong Yan relax, Zhao Yunling secretly ran out, Rong Yan wore a literati costume, with his hands behind his back, mixed among the many candidates, watching the candidates have a rush because of their own proposals, Zhao Yunling saw Rong Yan stretch his eyebrows and quipped: "Finally willing to let go of your bitter and hateful face?" ”

Rong Yan suddenly realized that his troubled expression in the past few days had also affected Zhao Yunling, and he was about to apologize, but he heard the conversation of the people behind him.

"We've been taking the test in it for nine days, and the brother Taifei said that the test question was wrong, and he didn't come back in the end, isn't this in vain?" After the exam, the candidates sat at the door with their luggage on their backs, intending to take a break before leaving, and they talked about the strange things they had encountered in the examination room.

Hearing these words of the candidate, Rong Yan had a flash of inspiration, he had an idea, this time he was very sure that Song Jiang must be cheating, "Song Jiang, why didn't I think of it?" You're just too cunning. ”

Rong Yan pulled Zhao Yunling and ran back, "I won't explain to you first, you have helped me a lot, and I will take you out to play another day." ”

"I've heard that you can get the top prize by spending money from you? I don't know how the boss can sell it? Rong Yan was wearing the clothes of his son, holding a fake fan in his hand, looking like a gentleman, shaking his legs.

Since the end of the imperial examination, it is not surprising that the shopkeeper of the pharmacy often sees this kind of person.

The pharmacy shopkeeper was pretending to be stupid, "What did you say?" I only sell medicine here. "The pharmacy shopkeeper looks honest, but in fact, he is holding back the bad.

Rong Yan saw that the shopkeeper of the pharmacy was deliberately hiding something, so he said that he was the illegitimate son of a local nouveau riche, and he was playing tricks with the collar of the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, "If you don't sell it to me today, my father will break my leg next year, and I will let your whole family take medicine every day." ”

"Okay, young master, I'll take you to have a look." The shopkeeper of the pharmacy was so frightened by Rong Yan that he stared at him with both hands, for fear that Rong Yan would use some hooligan tricks and smash his small shop.

Through official channels, Rong Yan really couldn't catch the handle, so he sent his previous ambush eyeliner to inquire about the information, and Rong Yan went alone in order to get the evidence.

Rong Yan followed the pharmacy shopkeeper to the backyard, and came to a basement where there were special people selling exam questions, and the pharmacy shopkeeper saw that Rong Yan was dressed luxuriously and took out a thing, "Look, this is the exam tool we are studying." The pharmacy shopkeeper gushed about a dazzling array of cheating tools.

"I just want to do well in the exam and deal with my dad, how do you calculate the money here?" Rong Yan asked casually while swallowing melon seeds, with a disdainful expression, which made the pharmacy shopkeeper convinced of his identity.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy hurriedly asked Rong Yan to be quiet, "You can be quiet, I still want it, yes, each question has a price for each question, which are three levels: low, medium and high, you can choose." The shopkeeper of the pharmacy stretched his head over with a smile and looked at the fan in Rong Yan's hand.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy opened his eyes and said nonsense, "I think you are the real thing, if the son is so generous, it is better to pay the full amount and get a champion to go home, so that he can get ahead and shine on the lintel." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch the fan, but his hand retracted again, the purpose of which was to test Rong Yan.

"Money, no problem, look at me, rich, main, how do I know if your answer is accurate? I don't have time to flip through books. Rong Yan rolled his eyes, found a place to sit down, crossed Erlang's legs, took a sip of tea, and deliberately picked and disliked that it was not a good tea, as if he was an arrogant and lascivious rich son.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy felt that Rong Yan was just as he thought, a rich straw bag, so he walked closer, looked left and right, covered his mouth with his hand, and whispered to Rong Yan, "Do you know Lord Song Jiang?" He's our guy, and as long as you pay enough money, I guarantee you can get what you want. ”

"Okay, then tomorrow, full payment, I will be the champion next year." Rong Yan slapped the table, he behaved a little silly, and the pharmacy shopkeeper thought that Rong Yan had taken a set, and sent him away respectfully.

How did he know that what was waiting for him the next day was not gold, silver and jewelry, but the royal army.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy was selling medicine in front of him, and suddenly the sound of footsteps and armor was incessant, and it was too late for him to react.

"Lock the door for me! Come on! The pharmacy shopkeeper was still desperately resisting, but Rong Yan commanded the army to tear down the door, and the army was well-trained under Rong Yan's command, so he entered the courtyard and caught the pharmacy shopkeeper who intended to resist.

The torture instruments of the Holy Mart Kingdom have not changed, and the shopkeeper of the pharmacy has not yet been punished, and he faints just by seeing those torture instruments.

When the shopkeeper of the pharmacy woke up, he kept begging, and the minister in charge of the interrogation had to let him confess directly.

"I said, we wrote the code with a special pen on the back of the prescription, and after we got the questions, there were some knowledgeable old men here to give the final answers, and then we just found a way to send them back to the examination room." The pharmacy shopkeeper reluctantly explained the ins and outs of the matter.

Frightened, "The pharmacy shopkeeper trembled like chaff, and he drew the charge directly without looking at it.

Now that the evidence is conclusive, Rong Yan gave an order: "Raided Song Jiang's house!" Adjournment for retrial! Rong Yan's tone was resolute, no one dared to say a word, he decided to make things clear thoroughly, after all, the stakes were high.

Rong Yan sent several ministers to count the stolen money, but he didn't come back for two days, and Rong Yan realized that Song Jiang had embezzled so much.

"How much? Ten million taels of gold? Rong Yan was still a little surprised by such a huge number, and then said that he knew, Rong Yan thought, it was because of a moth like him that it would take time for the Holy Ma Kingdom to completely settle down.

Rong Yan calmed down and asked the person holding the account book next to him, "What about this time?" Only this time how much did he take? After Rong Yan asked, he didn't want to hear it anymore, the more he listened, the more lonely he felt, what he did was for everyone's good, but there were still people who deliberately went against Rong Yan, but, fortunately, Zhao Yunling was still there.

"King, it's three million taels of gold." The minister who took this account book had a solemn face, frowned, and lowered his voice very lowly, everyone knows what this number means, Song Jiang has no bottom line for money, if he succeeds this time, the law of the Holy Mart Kingdom will no longer have prestige.

The next morning, the ministers all came early, they all knew that Rong Yan was angry, the hall was very quiet, Rong Yan had just arrived in the hall, and motioned for everyone to sit down, "Bring Song Jiang up!" Tell me, how much money did you make on this scientific expedition? How many poor students have been harmed? Just for the sake of such a small profit, do you want to bring down the kingdom of St. Mary? ”

In the face of Rong Yan's scolding, everyone lowered their heads and fixed there without saying a word.

"King, I was really wrong, please forgive me!" Song Jiang knelt on the main hall, crying about his confession, how pitiful he was, showing that he regretted it very much, and he also hoped that Rong Yan could pity him and open the net.

Rong Yan called Song Jiang to the main hall, just to set an example for other officials, seeing that the ministers present were silent, Rong Yan slapped the table and startled everyone, "Execute according to the law!" Rong Yan didn't have any superfluous words, which let the officials know that sooner or later they would be punished for not being disciplined.

"According to the law! Song Jiang and other main criminals were beheaded, their families were allocated, and those who purchased the test questions through Song Jiang were sentenced to be invalid and could not be officials forever. Rong Yan read out the places drawn in the codex, and then Rong Yan called the guards and dragged Song Jiang out.

The ministers present saw that they had really cut people, all of them were terrified, everyone was in danger, no one dared to gasp, and privately looked at the people on both sides with their spare eyes.

These ministers looked at each other for a moment, hurriedly stepped forward, and gave Rong Yan a big salute, "King, you are really wise and wise, fortunately you have already noticed it, so you will not cause a big disaster." ”

All the people quickly knelt down and shouted "King Shengming." ”

The rest of the ministers hurriedly praised Rong Yan, and some people felt that buying and selling official positions was a common thing, and Rong Yan was too harsh, but Rong Yan's achievements were obvious to everyone, so no one refuted them.
