On the evening of the last day of the scientific expedition, Xie Yufei wore a scholar's suit and a scarf and hat, and took the three servants to a restaurant near the Gongyuan, went up to the second floor and found a table by the window to sit down.

In addition to the full house of scholars in the restaurant, in addition to the high-spirited young candidates, there are also middle-aged and elderly candidates who are full of vicissitudes of life.

In addition to the scholars, there are occasionally people shuttling through the restaurant, all have one thing in common, they will lean over and whisper a few words in the ears of the scholars, some scholars are impatient to drive people away, some scholars will talk to them for a few words and then no more, and a very small number of scholars will take out the money from the placket of their clothes and hand it to the person who speaks, and then take the folded pieces of paper into their arms with a nervous expression.

These people are here to do business, every few days before the scientific examination, they come out to sell exam questions part-time, of course, the exam questions sold are also fake, but there are still people who are fooled, and those who wish to take the bait.

Not long after Xie Yufei sat down, a tall and thin middle-aged man came over and leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Childe, will you take the subject of the entrance examination?" ”

Xie Yufei nodded with a smile, and said in a low voice, "Yes, the topic of Jinshike, what is the price?" ”

The tall and thin middle-aged man smiled when he heard this, "Fifty runs, there are scriptures, wheels, and poems." The source of this question is absolutely reliable, and you will pass the test! ”

Xie Yufei looked puzzled and asked, "Oh? So expensive? What should I do if I don't pass the test? I won't be able to find your people then. ”

The middle-aged man saw that Xie Yufei didn't dislike the expensive but was worried about the fake, and suddenly came to his senses, but his face was very cautious, and said, "Look at what you said, this is a noble man who bought it at a high price for his own use, and he just wants to make money back when he sells it, it's absolutely true!" In this way, only three copies were sold for a broken leg this morning, and I will sell it to you thirty times, and it is better to go home early to eat if you are tired of running with this leg and foot. ”

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he deliberately looked around, as if he was afraid that others would listen.

Xie Yufei's heart suddenly beat wildly when he heard this, and he asked calmly, "Is this true?" Then give me a copy! ”

Xie Yufei put the bought exam questions into her arms after reading them, and the corner of her mouth on the right side sneered, she came out a few times in the past two days and spent a lot of money to buy exam questions, and all kinds of things were bought, and this time she finally bought it for real. Xie Yufei was in a good mood, and beckoned the three girls to sit down and eat, in order to have the style of a rich son in the past two days, Xizhu and a few of them have been standing behind.

When the date of the scientific expedition arrives, the entrance of the Gongyuan is already crowded when the sky is slightly bright, and people are carrying dense lanterns in their hands, illuminating the whole area as bright as day. The Flash Dancers stood together in groups of three or five, accompanied by relatives and scholars and servants who were waiting. There are also the children of the Hanmen who are alone, and under the bright and dark light of the lantern, you can see the solemn look on their faces, and at the same time look at the gate of the Gongyuan with excitement and excitement, and with a common expectation, cross the dragon gate in front of them.

After three days, the examination was finally completed, and in these three days, not only the candidates were nervous and worried, but also the two examiners were also nervous and worried about making mistakes.

The scientific examination was successfully completed, Gong Jing, the left waiter of the deputy chief examiner's department, was very tired in his heart, and the high tension of several days made him very tired, and he dragged back to the house in the evening, preparing to rush into the bedroom to rest for a while, and his wife Wang stopped him.

Gong Jing was surprised and asked, "Madame, is there something wrong?" ”

Wang saw that the master's face was a little gloomy, she didn't care about the old man's anger, and quickly pulled him into the bedroom, and whispered in his ear: "This afternoon, a girl came to the mansion and said that it was a distant relative of the master, and the concubine was brought into the house to see her, and after she came in, she let the concubine retreat left and right, she said that there was something related to the life of the mansion to tell the master, the concubine didn't believe it at first, and was about to drive her out, she showed me a note saying that the exam questions were leaked out, she had something to find the master, the concubine was a woman, and the family also understood that this matter was important, and the concubine didn't dare to ask more, So he asked her to stay in the study and wait for the master. ”

Gong Jing was already in a cold sweat after listening to what his wife said, and he hurriedly ran to the outer study, leaving his wife with a worried face.

Gong Jing pushed open the door of the outer study, and three oil lamps had been lit inside, and in the bright study, there was a young woman with a charming face sitting in front of his bookcase reading a book.

Someone pushed the door in, Xie Yufei saw it, she pointed to the chair in front of the bookcase and said, "Lord Gong is back?" Have a seat. ”

Gong Jing closed the door and sat down cooperatively, he saw this woman's calm and relaxed appearance, he couldn't guess her purpose for a while, and his heart was full of doubts, so he opened his mouth and asked first, "Who is the girl?" If what you said is false, don't blame the official for sending you to the government and punishing you for the crime of framing the court officials. ”

Xie Yu was not intimidated by his official threat, handed over the note, and said with a smile, "Now it is Lord Gong who is going to be punished." ”

After Gong Jing took the note and read it, his heart suddenly became extremely cold, and he trembled with cold.

Xie Yufei sprinkled a handful of salt on the wound and said, "This note is not only for me, but someone has already sold a lot of it in major restaurants the afternoon before the scientific expedition." ”

Xie Yufei's words were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Gong Jing's trembling body was stunned.

Gong Jing's face was full of distortion at the moment, and he slammed his fist on the desk, gritted his teeth and said, "Jiao Zhiqing misunderstood me!" ”

The examination questions were set by the two of them after consultation, and for the sake of secrecy, no one except the two of them knew about it.

Gong Jing threw out that punch and seemed to take away a lot of panic from him, at this moment he had calmed down, his eyes were firmly staring at the beautiful girl in front of him, now the first thing he needs is to figure out her intentions, if it is kind, what can it help him, if it is evil, now his situation is already terrible, he can no longer have as many scruples as before.

Gong Jing asked straight in: "The old man asks again, who is the girl?" What is the purpose? ”

Xie Yufei took out a fold from his arms and handed it over before he said

"The little woman is a daughter of the Xie clan in Huaxian County, I have no ill will towards Lord Gong, on the contrary, I am here to help the adult."

The concubine's mother? Then she is here on behalf of the king of qin, she said that it is a little credible to help herself, gong jing took the fold and couldn't wait to open it, he first glanced at ten lines and quickly browsed it and then looked at it carefully.

Gong Jing clenched his hands after reading it, this can save his life, in this short quarter of an hour, his state of mind was first filled with great sorrow, and then filled with great joy, this time not only his life was saved, maybe the punishment would not be too heavy. He sighed deeply and said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Qin!" ”

"After reading it, the adults can copy it once, and then send it to the palace in person to meet the emperor, and the witness is already at the outer door of the adult's mansion. The little woman retired" Xie Yufei interjected, and the grace of the grace was as heavy as a mountain, and it was suspected of asking him to join the command of the King of Qin at this moment.
