The next day, Qingguang only saw through the window, Shen Zetang was already neatly dressed, had breakfast, and walked out of the room with his hands behind his back.

The night rain is a scoundrel, dripping from the evening to the dawn, and the high sky suddenly sees a wild goose flying south, which breaks the autumn in the capital, and adds new sorrow to the unprovoked thoughts.

Shen Huan opened the sedan curtain, Shen Zetang glanced at the lump of green boiling out of his eyes, pursed the corners of his mouth without saying much, and sat down in the sedan chair.

Creaking all the way through the second hall and six halls, and stopping in front of the examination institute, he came out of the sedan chair, and Shen Huan held up a green silk umbrella to shield him from the rain.

The same examiner had been waiting for a long time, so he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hand, respectfully hugging him, talking as he walked.

They walked in the main entrance aisle, at the east and west corner doors on both sides, and the candidates were like a long dragon winding and difficult to see the end, all carrying boxes and cages on their shoulders and carrying test baskets, and their expressions were quite apprehensive.

Tongzhi Xie Ang complained in a low voice: "The emperor clearly ordered the addition of two imperial historians to arrest and cure cheating such as coercion, but they were ordered by the prince to stop, abandon the search and prosecutors, and reuse the brocade guards, they behave arrogantly, and they don't even pay attention to officials, let alone these Confucian students who are rushing to take the exam!" It is bound to suffer a crime today, and if you are emotionally damaged, it may affect your morale! ”

Shen Zetang smiled and disagreed: "Lord Xie's words are wrong!" If these Confucian students are well versed in the way of Confucius and Mencius, full of splendid chapters, but because of the Jinyi Wei body search, they are emotionally moved, and they are depressed and unintentionally put down the pen, like a delicate flower that is difficult to help the frost, and do not know how to eliminate grievances in adversity, and do not know how to slack off and think hard, the official thinks that even if he goes to the court in the future, it will be difficult to become a great tool to protect the country and the people. ”

Xie Ang's face was ashamed, and he said yes, Shen Zetang also clicked to the end, no more talking, his eyes swept to the surroundings without showing traces, and saw Shun Yu's little person holding a big umbrella, muttering to another prisoner, but there was no nervous look, as if he felt something and looked at him, Shen Zetang retracted his gaze and walked into the main door.

A flower shed was set up in the second door, with a hexagonal armchair and a small table of Huanghuali, and the copper stove next to it was boiling tea, steaming hot.

A total of more than 30 people gathered to kneel and listen to the admonition, Shen Zetang sat upright in his robe, first listened to the deputy examiner holding the roster to count the number of people, except for the prince who was not seen, the others were not absent and late, and described the provisions of the "Imperial Examination Edict" and the details of the duties of each official. Carefully search, to Du Huai, but also not to insult the Confucian shame, can raise a scarf to look, a little physical appearance, allow him to step on a single cloth, if so dare to have a coercion, will be aggravated, you can hear it? ! ”

Everyone agreed, Shen Zetang saw the sky, ordered the door to open the door to let the candidates in, and after the officials got up and made a move, they returned to their posts to perform their duties, which is not detailed here.

Shen Zetang ate tea slowly, and there were already scattered candidates in the distance, he called Shen Huan to whisper a few words, and Shen Huan hurriedly retreated.

After more than half an hour, Shen Huan came back and came closer: "Feng Sheng was searched by Li Meng, wearing underwear and pants without taking off his water socks, and his shoulders and arms were patted without any abnormality, so he let him pass and came to the second gate. ”

Shen Zetang Mo Shaoqing asked: "Have you ever touched your chest and waist and abdomen?" ”

"Never touched my chest." Shen Huan paused, rolled his eyes at the sky, and lowered his waist and abdomen, didn't the second master want to ask Feng Sheng about the big niao between his legs: "I didn't touch my waist and abdomen." After finishing speaking, he knew that Xie Ang wiped his sweat and hurriedly reported: "The prince brought dozens of brocade clothes and guards into the national prison. ”

Shen Huan stepped back and stood beside Xu Jing and Shen Rong, and said in a low voice: "Good girl, it's amazing." ”

"What's the big deal?" Shen Rong was silent, and Xu Jing asked with some curiosity.

Shen Huan felt that he couldn't say it, he couldn't help it after closing his mouth for a long time, and sighed sincerely: "Don't look at that Feng Sheng is short, thin and young, but his weapons are very strong, Xu Jing and Shen Rong can't compare with the two of you, and only me and him are inseparable!" ”

"You are stupid, dare to hold up here!" Xu Jing and Shen Rong mocked together, and Shen Huan raised his voice: "Don't believe it yet, wait for him to come through the second door to search his body, and blind your dog's eyes!" ”

Shen Zetang raised his eyebrows silently, a little curious.

...........................................

A bright yellow sedan chair is parked in front of the second gate.

Shen Zetang and the officials greeted him to worship, and the crown prince Zhu Yu hurriedly excused them from the salute, and said apologetically: "I'm late, don't blame Shen Gelao." ”

"The prince is serious!" Shen Zetang smiled: "If you can come, it's never too late!" ”

Zhu Yu also smiled and sat down, the deacon was drinking and ordering the soldiers to search the candidates, he looked at it for a moment, shook his head and was dissatisfied: "These soldiers are too lenient." He immediately ordered the soldiers to be withdrawn and replaced by the brocade guards.

But seeing that the brocade guard walked in front of the candidate, without saying a word, grabbed his placket and pulled it hard to both sides, the Confucian robe and the undershirt were torn off instantly, revealing a thin chest, and more than that, that is, he pulled the scarf and pulled the hairpin, made his cape spread, dragged his shoes and socks, and made him step on the mud with his bare feet.

This is exactly what it is: Rao Jun has exhausted the water of the Xiangjiang River, and it is difficult to wash his face full of shame.

Deputy examiner Lu Xian couldn't see it, and when he leaned down in front of Shen Zetang, his ears rang and rang: "How can Jinyiwei treat these pillars of the country as equal to the criminal ministers of Zhao Prison, less courtesy, more trampling, less kind words and more shouting, making them not people and ghosts, and in the future, when they go to the officialdom in the future, they will always have no face." ”

Shen Zetang watched the prince listen quietly, and then said calmly: "Be polite to the scholars, and the precautions must be strict, although it makes all living beings undignified, but in order to maintain the fairness of the scientific examination, it is also for the benefit of his body, the prince's good intentions must not be disappointed, no matter how strange he is!" ”

Lu Xian really didn't dare to admonish again, and the prince's expression was relaxed.

Shen Zetang took the candidate's registration book and looked slowly, and after another half an hour, he raised his head again, Feng Shunyu's pale little face had already come into view, and he gradually searched for it.

He secretly gave Shen Rong a look, and Shen Rong understood and left.

Not long after, I suddenly saw a Confucian student coming towards Shen Zetang, and the Jinyi Guard Regiment protected the prince, Shen Huan stopped and glared angrily: "Bold candidate, what do you want?" ”

Shen Zetang ordered Shen Huan to retreat, and the student knelt down to worship, and said loudly: "Candidate Chen Sheng wants to give up, please Lord Shen to do it!" ”

Shen Zetang smiled and exchanged glances with each other: "Is your father okay?" ”

It turned out that in this life, he was Chen Sheng, the seventh son of the British Gong Chen Yan, who was young and smart, and very smart.

In order to protect Shunyu from the danger of searching, Shen Zetang went to discuss with Chen Yan and strategized, and placed Chen Sheng among the candidates, acting at the opportunity to prevent unpreparedness.

At a critical juncture, he appeared no later or too late, just at the right time.

Note: Because Chapter 153 was sealed again, I want to write it again from the perspective of the male protagonist here, don't think I'm verbose!
