Chapter 038: The Case of Fraud in the Imperial Examination

Qian Mao was also a little timid when he heard Qin Guan say this, and looked at Liu Su, who had a cold face and nodded slightly at Qian Mao.

Qian Mao was ruthless, he knew that if he didn't overthrow Qin Guan, the two brothers would jump into the lake today, lose face, and they might not be able to raise their heads for the rest of their lives.

After seeing Liu Su nodding, as if he had a backbone, he immediately said: "If you learn from your talent, you will definitely not succeed, I suspect that you are plagiarizing." ”

Qin Guan smiled coldly, "Qian Mao, if you lose the bet, do you use this way to cheat." I advise you, don't be cheap, it will hurt yourself. ”

"Hmph, Qin Guan, are you empty-hearted, you have to go to the Admiral Xuezheng to talk about it." Qian Mao's momentum became more and more high.

The riot in front of the examination hall was naturally seen by officials, and at this time, someone came over to scold it, and the examination institute was not allowed to make noise, Qian Mao immediately stepped forward and said: "My lord, I want to sue someone for cheating in this imperial examination, please report it to the academic administration." ”

The official was stunned when he heard this, and sued the imperial examination for fraud, this is a big matter, he didn't dare to call the shots, asked about Qian Mao's situation, and said with a cold face, "Wait here, don't continue to make noise." ”

Immediately ran to the examination institute to inform the admiral Cui Shanfu.

Cui Shanfu had just gotten up at the moment, and his face was still tired, but after hearing the report of the people below, he immediately stood up.

"Someone sues for fraud?"

"It's a talent named Qian Mao, who sued Qin Guan, the last place in the Academy of Sciences." The official said.

When Cui Shanfu heard it, Qin Guan knew it.

He may not be impressed by other candidates, but he is deeply impressed by this Qin Guan.

After reading Qin Guan's scroll with Lin Zhifu yesterday, Cui Shanfu was annoyed that Qin Guan was talented and learned, but he didn't work hard to practice calligraphy, and finally approved a line of words on Qin Guan's volume,

"Only last place."

It means that no matter how many talents are included in this section and what the score is, even if it is not as good as Qin Guan, Qin Guan can only be the last place.

It can be seen that he also hates Qin Guan's words.

But Cui Shanfu thought about it, but a wave of anger rose in his heart.

If the head of the complaint does not match, it is still possible, but if the sue is the last one, is this Xiucai named Qian Mao sick.

After putting on official uniforms and taking a group of officials and officials out of the gate of the examination institute, people saw the Admiral Xuezheng come out and automatically retreated, and the noisy scene was solemn.

Cui Shanfu was not angry, glanced at the black crowd outside, and said loudly: "Who wants to sue the imperial examination for fraud, come in." ”

Qian Mao was also a little weak at the moment, but now he couldn't retreat, and walked over to Cui Xuezheng and gave him a deep look, "Student Qian Mao." ”

Qian Mao didn't know why he got this step, he was very empty.

"What are you complaining about?"

At this point, Qian Mao could only grit his teeth and say stubbornly: "The student sued Qin Guan for cheating. ”

Cui Shanfu frowned and asked, "Do you have evidence?" ”

Qian Mao was stunned, "Student, the student knows that Qin Guan doesn't learn and has no skills, although he is a student of Hangzhou Fuxue, but he has never gone to school well, but he won the show in this exam, it must be that he cheated and plagiarized, please check it clearly." ”

Fortunately, Qian Mao did not die, saying that Cui Shanfu was favoritism, and only said that Qin Guan plagiarized himself.

Hearing this, Cui Shanfu smiled coldly, "Is this what you call evidence?" ”

Qian Mao heard that Xuezheng's tone was not good, and he lowered his head and said, "Yes." ”

The officials are afraid of chaos, and it is best to be safe and sound, and when the court test is opened, they are clamoring for fraud, and there are one or two thousand onlookers here, which is not a trivial matter. If this Qian Mao has real evidence, it is okay, but he dares to tell people based on subjective speculation, and he makes such a big move, Cui Shanfu is already annoyed by this Qian Mao in his heart.

Cui Shanfu said to the officials on the left and right: "Come on, please come to the prefect of Hangzhou, and then ask someone to put the case on the table. ”

Cui Shanfu pays more attention to the official reputation, and there are hundreds of candidates here, and countless scholars with talents and fame, which cannot be underestimated.

The complaint for fraud is definitely a big case, Cui Shanfu has no shame in his heart, and he is ready to have a public trial, so he made a scene trial outside the examination court.

Set the table, open the field, and stand on both sides of the two shifts of officials, so that there is no difference from the yamen lobby. After all this was done, the prefect of Lynchin also came, and on the way, he had already asked the reason and sat directly on the other side.

On the periphery of the trial scene, there were no less than 2,000 Hangzhou scholars and ordinary people, and they were crowded.

Cui Shanfu was shocked and drank: "Qian Mao, you sued Qin Guan for fraud in the imperial examination, and now I and Governor Lin will hear the case, do you have any objections." ”

Qian Mao's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat at the moment, and after a deep skew, he said, "The student has no objection. ”

"Well, tell me what you are accusing." Choi Sun-bok said.

Qian Mao took a deep breath, organized the language, and said: "In this college examination, Qin Guan and Qin Shaoyou, students from Hangzhou Mansion, also took the exam and won the last place in Xiucai. I used to be classmates with that Qin Guan, and I knew that this Qin Guan was a prodigal on weekdays, and he didn't study well at all. ”

"Our teacher also said that Qin Guan is stubborn, and rotten wood cannot be carved, but he won the Xiucai exam this time, so the students think that this Qin Guan is definitely through cheating means, and the exam passed, please check it clearly."

After listening to Qian Mao's words, Lynch, who was sitting in the hall, also frowned.

Cui Shanfu no longer paid attention to Qian Mao, and slapped the shocked wood again, "Take Qin Guan to the hall to confront." ”

Qin Guan knew that it was time for him to appear.

Although it was the first time he saw this kind of scene, his heart was fresh and a little apprehensive, but he kept his expression calm and strode out of the crowd.

"Student Qin Guan, I have seen two adults."

Cui Shanfu and Lin Qi are both seeing Qin Guan for the first time, looking at this Qin Guan, he is not very old, but he is very handsome, seeing that the two of them did not show a little cringe, they have a bit of bearing, and in addition to the previous poems, the first impression of Qin Guan by the two is not bad.

Cui Shanfu opened his mouth and said: "Qin Guan, your classmate Qian Mao accused you of cheating, you have something to say." ”

"Students are not cheating."

Qin Guan answered neatly, this is the end.

So that Lynch and Cui Shanfu were also stunned, Cui Shanfu asked: "Qian Mao sued you, don't you have anything to defend yourself." ”

Qin Guan said with a righteous face on his face: "Those who are clear are self-pure, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, I have no shame in my heart, and I am not afraid of being sued." ”

Anyway, if he wasn't caught, no one could help him, what Qin Guan said was called a righteous awe-inspiring one.

Everyone thought he was finished, but Qin Guan spoke again, "My lord, in fact, Qian Mao accused me of cheating, I can understand, we had a gambling contract before, if I pass the exam, he Qian Mao and Qian Sheng will go to the West Lake to jump the lake, and if they fail the test, that is me Qin Guan jumping into the lake." ”
