Pei Shu stopped here and asked, "Do you have three sons who have investigated the ranks?" ”

Shen Qingyu shook his head frankly, "I didn't think about anyone else. ”

Pei Shu smiled and continued: "Of the three sons of Cheng Jie, the eldest son Cheng Jiao is the most valued, but his qualifications are mediocre, even if he is given a lot of resources, he has no outstanding performance. If the snobbery of the rank has not wavered, then it must be him who inherits the connections and power of the rank. So I don't think it's very likely that he will do this, after all, as long as he is honest, all this is naturally his. ”

"Cheng Jie's second son Cheng Ying is a concubine, despite this, with his father's relationship, his career is not difficult to walk, and now he is the commander of the Shengjing Soldiers and Horses, and he is also the most outstanding of the three sons of Cheng Jie. But although his position is important, it is really too far away from the imperial examination. I don't think he'll be able to get involved. ”

He didn't continue when he said this, Shen Qingyu waited for a while, and asked, "Why don't you say it?" ”

Pei Shu shook his head and said: "I've said enough, it's your turn, isn't it possible that you are responsible for providing a pair of ears?" ”

Shen Qingyu also felt that it didn't seem good to just listen to it, and said, "Okay, I'll tell you what I know." ”

She selectively talked about what she was investigating, and was interrupted by Pei Shu when she suspected that Zhu Er's death was likely related to cheating, "Although the embroidery you said is peculiar, it is not a rare thing, and it is impossible not to be discovered if it is brought into the examination room by the candidate." ”

Shen Qingyu took over his words, "So those who check their belongings are very suspicious. ”

Pei Shu didn't think about it in this regard, replacing the relevant personnel of the imperial examination is already quite a risk, if even the people who check their personal belongings are bought, then plus those students who cheat, what a big net it will be, and this net almost envelops everyone.

If he denounces the matter......

No, this didn't meet his needs, he pressed his heart down, and said: "The other party has made up such a large net, not for immediate benefits, but for a word above the court in the future. That's exactly what I don't understand. ”

"What?"

"He can set up such a big game, just to be able to control everything in the court in a few years, or even more than ten years later, which shows that he is very patient. But it can affect so many people, which means that any link is likely to be exposed. Even me, or even you, can find out that something is wrong, how can it be hidden in the shadows for so many years? ”

"What do you mean that even I can find out?" Shen Qingyu heard the meaning of the words and retorted: "It should be said that it is because I can find out." ”

Pei Shu couldn't hold back his laughter: "You're quite interesting." ”

At this time, he felt that Shen Qingyu was likable, but he didn't care if this little girl was a nasty ghost's sister, so he led Shen Qingyu to continue to move forward and turned into a pavilion.

Someone had already put up the screen to block the wind for the two.

Pei Shu motioned for Shen Qingyu to sit down before continuing what he had not finished speaking: "I just told you about the two sons of Cheng Jie, because I don't think these two people will have anything to do with this matter. And the most likely is this Chengjie third son, Chenghe, although he is not the head of the ministry, he also holds an important position. He can get started with official transfers. And although he is the youngest son, he is not taken seriously, and as far as I know, he has quarreled with his father more than once for promotion, which shows his ambition, so he has more motivation to do it. ”

Shen Qingyu interjected two sentences from time to time, and the two of them kept analyzing the fraud in the imperial examination.

At this moment, the voices of people in the corridor gradually sounded, and someone hurried to this side.

The maidservant girl in green clothes said, "Lord Shen's mansion has sent a carriage and horse to pick up Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen back. ”

Shen Qingyu saw the panic on her face, and wondered in her heart, they had already scheduled to go out, and now they were in such a hurry, something big must have happened suddenly.

Sure enough, when she went back with the maidservant, everyone looked panicked.

Wen's face was not very good, so he just hurriedly said goodbye to the county lord of Anping and took Shen Qingyu to board the car and leave.

Shen Qingyu was originally discussing with Pei Shu, and it was impossible to be blind in this situation. Jin said that he couldn't leave, so he had to wave his hand to Pei Shu.

Pei Shu smiled, stretched out his index finger and pointed to the sky.
