Baozhu had a dark face, hurriedly entered the hall of the Ministry of Rites, and saw that there were still some miscellaneous officials around, so he asked Yin to take a step to speak. Seeing Baozhu like this, he knew that there would be no good thing, so he couldn't help sighing secretly, but his face was faint, and said: "Look at the lawsuit on your face, you know that you will definitely have a bad life today, so what's the matter?" Baozhu said in a low voice: "Fourth master, the lifters have stopped in the past two days, but there are more and more people talking about cheating cases in other parts of the capital." The slave paid attention to inquiring, and the same play was being performed in the major theaters in Beijing, called "The Legend of Tongtianbang", which was probably somewhat involved in this matter. The slave went to ask for a copy and specially brought it to the fourth master to see. As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of pages from his sleeve.

Yin? took it and hurriedly read a few pages, couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said: "The writing is good, but I don't know which one's handwriting it is?" Baozhu said hatefully: "The slave asked, this person is in the official, he is a head of the household department, and it is said that he is still a member of the Confucian sage family, called Kong Shangren." Thinking about this person is really hateful, the fourth master has been busy day and night for this turmoil, but he is adding fuel to the fire, and he doesn't think things are messy enough, what's the matter? Fourth master, you only need a word, and the slave will clean him up!" Saying that, he really wanted to rush out, bluffing, and hurriedly grabbed him, and said: "Stop! After all these years of training, why are you still so uncomposed?"

Yin? Let Baozhu sit honestly, groaned slightly, and asked, "The more you talk about cheating, the more you talk about the fraud." What is the situation, tell me in detail and listen to the master. Reading the book// "Baozhu saw Yin's solemn face, and he didn't dare to let go of his temperament anymore, straightened out his mind a little, and said: "In the past few days, the slave has been ordered to supervise the inspection of the soldiers and horses of the five cities, and it seems that the situation is acceptable. But the day before yesterday, the slave's own entourage told the slave that he saw someone gathering on the street to discuss the fraud of the department, so the slave had a long heart, changed into the clothes of ordinary people, and went back to the drunken city of Nancheng. Sure enough, it really made the minions know a lot of things. Looking at Yin, who was in deep thought, Baozhu paused for a moment, and then said: "In the hall, a group of scholars gathered together, discussing the need to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and said that no matter how bad it was, they would carry the statue of the saint and knock on it, shouting that only by killing Li Pan and Jiang Chenying is to follow the principles of heaven and the law of the country." While they were eating and drinking, they were writing revealing posts, and some texts were written by the minions, which meant to be taboo. Because of this conversation, the "Legend of the Tongtian List" is often mentioned, and the slave took it to heart, and went to the theater garden in person yesterday. There are really a lot of people watching the play, many people watched one game after another, and after the play, they scolded the court officials in a bunch, and said a lot of bastard words in the middle, and the slaves felt that something was going to happen. Later, I inquired again, and I found out that it was this Kong Shangren who did a good thing!"

At this time, the heart is in turmoil, this fraud seems to have gradually gotten out of control, if it is allowed to continue, it is difficult to guarantee that someone will lose their heads for this, but I don't know who will be the final victims, Li Pan, Jiang Chenying, Kong Shangren, or those young students who have been affected by "The Legend of Tongtianbang" and a wave of enthusiasm has surged up to their heads and began to criticize the government? Will this turmoil create a bloody literary prison? If so, what should I do to avoid this tragedy?

At night, Yin? was able to return to the house, just threw down the reins of the horse, Gao Wuyong had already greeted him, looked at Yin's tired face, after asking for peace, he said: "Mr. Dai is waiting for the master in the house." After hearing this, he finally smiled a little, and said: "Oh, Dai Duo has returned to Beijing, when did he arrive? Why did no one in the house send a letter to the master?" Gao Wuyong accompanied him carefully, and said: "If you go back to the master, Mr. Dai only returned to Beijing at noon, and before he went home, he came to the house to see the fourth master, and heard that the fourth master was in the Ministry of Rites, so he said that he would take advantage of the time to take care of some things, and wait for the fourth master to return to the house to discuss with the fourth master." Yin's smile was even stronger, and with Dai Duo on the side, it was as if he had given himself a reassurance.

Hurriedly came to the study, and saw Dai Duo lying next to the desk looking at the newspaper and the chapter, about to hear the footsteps, Dai Duo raised his head, and saw that it was really Yin, so he rushed a few steps to ask for peace, but was pulled by Yin, and said with a smile: "Mr. is worthy of my timely rain, these days to chatter, if there is a gentleman on the side, why am I distressed." No, Mr. is here!" Dai Duo was naturally moved when he heard this, and said: "The slave has been loved by the master, and in the past few years, he has been transferred to Shandong River. Although his rank has been promoted, he can't often share the work of his master in Beijing, which makes the slave always worried. Now, when I happened to come to the household department to negotiate, I was in a hurry to go to the master's house first. Recently, the slave heard about something, and he always felt a little strange, and wanted to discuss it with his master. The slave pondered, the capital seems to be not peaceful, at this time, if the slave can stay in Beijing, it is a great good, and the slave would rather go back to the original Tobu Langzhong. Yin's heart was also warm, and he said: "Your heart, I remember, is my own family." Come, sit down and talk. I'm really tired today, and I haven't had dinner yet, so I simply asked someone to bring a hot pot of wine, and you and I chatted while using it. ”

After a while, the four-color vegetarian side dish was served, and a pot of wine was hot. Dai Duo poured a cup for Yin, and said: "Master, just a few days ago, the major theaters in Jinan and Qufu were all performing the same play, and the momentum was not small, called "The Legend of Tongtianbang". The slave also heard a lot of discussion on the way to Beijing, has the master ever heard of it?" Yin, took out the copy from his bosom, and the smile on his face also disappeared, and said, "I am also worried about this matter." Baozhu came to the yamen of the Ministry of Rites to look for me and showed me this. Yin? pointed to the stack of papers, and continued: "He also told me what he had heard and seen in the market in the past two days, which shocked me, and now there is a lot of uproar in Beijing. If you don't take any more measures, I'm afraid that the situation will be out of control. After that, he told Dai Duo about the previous disposition of the imperial examination case. Dai Duo took a shallow sip of wine and said, "The master's previous move, the slave thought it was very appropriate, and others couldn't find a single mistake. What kind of statute does the crown prince have now? Did he write an excerpt to tell the emperor?" When he thought of the prince, he was even more helpless, and said: "The prince? Dai Duo shook his head slightly and said, "Master, the slave just thinks that this matter is a little evil. Obviously, the situation seems to have settled down, but this scene of "The Legend of Tongtian Bang" suddenly appeared out of thin air, not only in the capital, but also everywhere in Qilu. I'm afraid that even Jiangnan is ...... at this time. After a pause, Dai Duo seemed to hesitate for a moment before he said: "The slave thinks that the master will immediately submit a fold, and send it to the emperor in an expedited manner for 600 miles, please ask the emperor to order, wait for the holy car to return to Beijing, and the emperor will try again!" ”
