"Oh?"

"Do you think this county test is unfair and there is fraud?" The county lord Chen Sizhi took a sip of tea, and he asked the scholar with a smile.

Seeing that the county lord was so amiable, the scholar became more and more relaxed.

"Exactly, county lord!"

"I heard that Huang Tinghui is a bastard, before entering Luyang Academy, he didn't know how to learn at all!"

"Although Huang Tinghui has some little talent, he can't beat the young talents of a county in just over a month, it's impossible!"

"If it weren't for fraud, this person would never have become the head of the case!"

"Therefore, please ask Lord Qingtian to investigate this matter thoroughly, and give our scholars who are studying hard in the cold window a fair chance for the imperial examination!"

"My lord, this is not only my wish, but also my wish to wait for the cold window to study hard."

"May the county lord be clear!" When the words fell, the scholar arched his hand to the county lord Chen Sizhi again.

"You mean, Huang Xiaolangjun cheated to get the name of the head of the county trial?" Chen Sizhi took the teacup and blew it gently, and then took a shallow taste.

"Exactly!"

"Exactly!!"

"Exactly!!" Seeing that the county lord is discerning and amiable, he is simply a representative of a good official in the eyes of scholars.

The other scholars who were brought along with the officials echoed one after another.

Huang Tinghui is a farmer's child, a second-rate child who has only been studying at Luyang Academy for a long time.

Although those poems are really good, they also confirm the name of Huang Tinghui's talent.

But "people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong", especially among literati.

The feeling of jealousy naturally brewed in the hearts of everyone.

Now that he has lost his brother, a second-rate bastard and a second-rate son has become the head of the case in Ruian County.

How could they be convinced?

Therefore, in this case, coupled with the attitude shown by the county master, it is obvious that there is some support for them.

They expressed their opinions freely.

The leader of the scholar is also quite complacent, and it seems that the pressure brought by the rumors in the market has also put a lot of pressure on the county lord.

After all, there is a precedent in the past, and no one wants to lose their head because of this, right?

In the unwarranted "imperial examination fraud case" back then, how many high-ranking officials lost their heads?

They were even connected to the nine tribes, and everyone knew that the southern scholars were better educated than the northern scholars.

Therefore, it is normal for the top three Jinshi to have many southern scholars.

Although everyone knows that there is nothing wrong with this, don't all those high-ranking officials lose their heads?

This is a lesson for latecomers!

Thinking like this, when the leading scholar looked at the county lord Chen Sizhi, there was a trace of contempt in his eyes.

can be hijacked by the grass people himself, what if such a county lord has no power?

Not a piece of rubbish?

The person who was still frightened by the county lord just now had a subtle change in his mentality at this time.

In his opinion, the county lord is nothing more than that.

As long as you can make good use of the "strategy" and suppress it with the "general trend".

The county lord also has to do what he "wants".

This person only thinks that if he is an official, he will definitely be able to succeed in officialdom.

In reality, there are many people who think they are smart.

"Fraud?"

"What a cheat!" The county lord Chen Sizhi smiled, he looked at the scholar and asked, "What evidence do you have?" ”

Although the county lord leaked the exam questions to Huang Tinghui, only three or four people knew about it at this time.

These three or four people would never have been able to tell the story.

Even if it is accidentally known by outsiders, it is a matter of unfounded words.

So the evidence?

Chen Sizhi is an old fritter in officialdom, how could he leave evidence?

Even if someone puts the draft of Huang Tinghui's article in front of Chen Sizhi, he can categorically deny it.

After all, who stipulates that after the exam, candidates can't go back and repeat the article?

"Evidence?" Hearing the county lord Chen Sizhi ask, the gentleman was stunned for a moment, after all, in his opinion, this kind of thing doesn't need evidence, just chase the wind and catch the shadows in the streets.

Wasn't the big case back then just chasing after the wind and beating into a trick?

However, as soon as the county lord said this, the scholar also replied: "Lord County, I also heard my cousin mention it, and mentioned that before the exam, Huang Tinghui knew the exam questions!" ”

"Therefore, the villain will feel that this list is false, and Huang Tinghui is suspected of fraud!"

Hearing this gentleman say this, the county lord Chen Sizhi nodded, "Hmm! ”

Hearing the county lord's "um", the scholar thought that the county lord agreed with his statement, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

But then, the county lord Chen Sizhi's face changed, and his face was so cold that he could directly freeze people.

"So, you don't have any proof!"

"It's just nothing!"

"Is it hearsay at all?" Suddenly, Chen Sizhi broke out.

Seeing the county lord Chen Sizhi's appearance like a Sichuan opera changing face, the scholars were also surprised.

They fell to their knees in fear.

Only Huang Tinghui looked at everyone coldly as if he was watching a play.

It was as if all this was expected by Huang Tinghui.

"Your Excellency, Lord Prefectural!"

"I'm waiting for the evidence, we heard, we heard ......"

The gentleman, who was kneeling on the ground, hurriedly explained to the county lord.

"I heard?"

"Heard? You are blinded by fame, can you slander a good family just by hearing the word "heard"? ”

"Just by hearing and hearing the word, can you reverse right and wrong and spread rumors?"

"Just by hearing and hearing, can you influence the list selected by the official?"

At this moment, Chen Sizhi's momentum all exploded.

The authority of the county lord, the prestige of the county lord.

The moment is unmistakable.

"This official also heard that you are waiting for a party to try to influence the results of the imperial examination!"

"I heard that you colluded with the pirates and tried to ransack my Ruian County!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole person who was still proud of the soldier collapsed on the ground, sweating all over.

The arrogant scholar finally understood what official authority was and what real power was.

also knew that the amiable county lord had always been a tiger, but he disguised himself.

Let everyone feel that others and animals are harmless and can be manipulated at will.

"Lord County, Lord County!"

"We have no such thing, there is no such thing, and I ask the county lord to find out!"

"Discerning!" Everyone trembled and said to the county lord Chen Sizhi.

"Humph!" Chen Sizhi sneered, he looked at everyone and said.

"You wait until you say that Huang Tinghui cheated, but you know that I wrote the exam questions the night before I went to the examination room."

"Let the government work overtime to make it!"

"The craftsmen of the government stayed together all night, and none of them went out!"

"Therefore, this leaking and cheating matter, do you suspect that this official will not succeed!"

Chen Sizhi looked at the paralyzed crowd and scolded loudly.
