Boom boom, boom, boom, in front of the mighty and bright Wannian County Mansion, dozens of white-clothed scholars sat on the ground, behind them were the cloth cloth people who heard the news, although these onlookers and the county dance to cover the theme of injustice of the eight poles, but also heard of the arrogant and unruly Dongxuan four madness defeated the five sons of Chang'an - since the Shangqing Guan scribe banquet, the people of Chang'an have timely changed the name of the Japanese envoy to Zhou, and now it is only called "four madness".

Although the people can not recite poems and even most of the big characters are illiterate, but because of the influence of national conditions, they are good at revering talented and handsome, not to mention in Kyoto Chang'an and other world-renowned prosperous places, that is, in the countryside, fishing, hunting and farming often will also sing poems for fun, of course, this is all due to the merits of the Qinglou people, often the humble status of their main force as a bridge of communication between the literary and virtuous men and the cloth cloth cultivators.

It was on this day that when the scholars bombarded Cao Gang for ten thousand years, the situation finally developed to a climax, and finally evolved into a siege of the county party to question the injustice of taking scholars, although the onlookers could not get any benefits from this, but out of a good impression of the five sons of Chang'an, who were the four madmen of Dongxuan, I heard that Shao Jiulang, who was the main force of the couplet, actually tried to fall in Wannian County, and they were upset about it, so they spontaneously went to support the troublesome scholars.

As one of the Beijing counties, compared to the Chang'an order that governs Xicheng, because Dongcheng has always been a prominent residence of high-ranking officials, the status of Wannian County is more important, and Wannian Ling has always been known as the first order in the world, although it is only a county order, it seems to be lowly in the capital where high-ranking officials are everywhere, but no one dares to offend easily, let alone be surrounded and questioned, but on this day, although the troublemakers have not completely lost their minds because of anger and went straight to the county government, no one was ordered to stop and disperse the officials to retreat, and the confrontation has lasted for most of the hour, On the contrary, the crowd gradually increased.

A white-clothed scholar shouted: "There must be an inside story in the Wannian County test, and the Wannian Order should respond to our questions!" ”

The crowd raised their arms in response.

"The people at the top of the list are mediocre in their literary talents, such as Shao and Yin, who are comparable to Xue Liulang and Wang Qilang, but they were deposed, which shows that there is no fairness in the Wannian County Test!"

The crowd echoed in unison.

"If Cao Mingfu has a clear conscience, why don't you dare to declare it in public!"

"It's clear that you're a thief!" "Cao Mingfu should give an explanation!" "It's clearly the county order dance!"

Under the impact of this wave of sound, the officials who were originally arrogant and fierce gradually fell behind, and although they were still lined up to block the door, they couldn't help but look at each other or simply hang their heads to avoid their eyes, and even the leader who had previously threatened the troublemakers with the crime of "gathering crowds to make trouble" was silent.

If the troublemakers are just civilians in cloth clothes, they can kill the chickens and make an example of the situation by arresting a few leaders and scolding them in public, but they can't be so barbaric to these scribes, not to mention that not all the scribes are degraded and humble, many of them are the children of the family who have passed the county examination, and the family behind them is not something that these officials dare to offend.

Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more tense, the team leader finally became timid, he quietly retreated into the county party, and was trying to pass in - he was powerless in his position, and the troublemakers were too rampant, if Ming Gong did not come forward, it seemed that these people would not retreat.

But when Liu Dongye came out with a scroll of paper in his hand with a calm face, the team leader breathed a sigh of relief as if he was relieved.

Liu Dongye's mood was very depressed, things got to such a situation, the county lieutenant Cao who was in charge of this year's county exam was picked, and simply said that he couldn't get sick, this county lieutenant was born in a family, and he was not afraid of Cao Gang's threat at all, Liu Zhubo was ordered to persuade him to come forward to calm down the situation, and the county lieutenant actually confronted him face to face: "Although I am an invigilator, but the person who is deposed is nothing more than a person who tries to give a rhyme, Shao Guang and Yin Shen are both Ming Gong who fell after reviewing the papers, Gao Yajun is also the first of Ming Gong's list, and now many candidates question the unfairness of taking scholars, so how do I respond?" Even if I come forward, I can only tell the truth! ”

So this tricky matter fell on the shoulders of Liu Dongye, the main thin shoulder, at first Cao Gang even only told him to drink people back: "Historically, because candidates are not satisfied with the uproar, they often fail, and they will even be held accountable afterwards, and if they are not allowed to take the exam, it is to completely cut off their careers, you can use these words to deter." ”

"Ming Gong thinks twice, this time is not as good as before, the first of the county test list was sent to send Zhou envoys, and was humiliated by the great Zhou scholars, to say that it affected the national prestige, and it has been in a uproar, but it is Shao Guang and others who have frustrated the four heroes of Dongxuan, so that the reputation of the five sons of Chang'an has been greatly enhanced, and everyone in Beijing knows about it, and now those scholars use this matter to question the unfairness of the county test, if they do not respond, they only use deterrence, they are afraid that they will be used by people with intentions." Liu Dongye was afraid that he would be involved in this situation that had nothing to do with him, which would add more twists and turns to his already precarious career, so of course he wanted to persuade Cao Gang to calm down.

However, Cao Gang didn't take this coaxing to heart at all because he had Mao Wei's support behind him, and it wasn't that he was stupid, it was really because the request for help in the field had long become the atmosphere of the Great Zhou, and it was not that there were no candidates who didn't make any trouble because they didn't accept the coaxing, not to mention that this matter was originally instructed by Mao Tend, where would Mao Xiangguo ignore it.

However, the confidant's sentence "people with a heart use it" still aroused Cao Gang's caution, so he agreed to let Liu Dongye take Gao Yajun's test paper to show the public, thinking that it was the official response of Wannian County.

"Ladies and gentlemen, a certain is the county lord of Wannian, and he responds to questions on the orders of Cao Minggong." Liu Dongye adhered to the mentality of never offending the scholar and setting himself on fire, of course, he did not hold the official authority, and the literary quality was polite, followed by a defense: "Although Gao Langjun, the top of the list this autumn, lost to the Japanese bachelor in the competition, the great reason is that the two people who played the pipa together lost first, which does not fully prove Gao Langjun's own talent. ”

Although Gao Yajun's chief essay for the exam was gorgeous and convincing to the public, Shibatori, the instigator of today's incident, was not convinced, and he snorted coldly: "If the exam questions are leaked first, the test taker can prepare early and ask someone to write it, which does not prove that the top spot is worthy of the name." ”

Again, there was a chorus of echoes.

"Why didn't Wan Nian Ling show the test papers of Shao and Yin to the public? We don't believe that poetry and writing can be called the five sons of Chang'an side by side with Xue and Wang, and they should be at the level of the 10,000-year test. Someone even put it to the point.

Liu Dongye was dumbfounded, but instead of calming down the situation, he retreated in embarrassment amid the commotion of everyone.

And about this commotion, of course, Eleven Niang immediately heard about it, as early as when there were scribes talking about the disturbance and accurate bombardment of Cao Gang, He Zhan paid special attention to the turmoil in the market, and today the turmoil in front of the Wannian County Party was born, of course, the ears and eyes he sent would go to inquire about the news, although He Zhan himself did not join in the fun, but he knew everything about the development of the situation.

"Shibatori again?" Eleven Niang only cares about this key.

The last Feng Bozhang incident, Chai Tori was very active, at that time Shi Niang only thought that he was really dissatisfied with the search order, but this time it was this person who almost immediately encouraged those scholars who failed in the county test to question Cao Gang, Shi Niang really felt a little suspicious: "Although he studied under the famous man, but from a humble background, if you say that the last time for the search order, it may be seen and heard along the way, all by pure heart, but this time...... He was not deposed in the county exam, and he had no friendship with Shao Jiulang or Yin Erlang, so why did he come out? And so accurately pointed the finger at Cao Gang, without paying attention to the examiner, obviously he understood the stakes and planned to take advantage of this opportunity, but how could he have such insight? Even Li Youzai is afraid that he will not be able to participate in it. ”

He Zhan bowed: "Although Chai Qu is Li Youzai's same door, but the two have very different temperaments, Chai Qu is quite utilitarian, and it is not strange to behave in this matter, it is incomprehensible that he is a person who has no foundation in the first test, how can he gain insight into the current situation in the court." ”

Obviously, there are high-ranking people behind him.

"It must be the British prince who is also participating in the siege today." Eleven Niang asserted: "Shibatori is now living in the British Mansion, and he is only closest to Xu Xiuneng. ”

"Although Chai Tatori came from a humble background, but because he studied under famous scholars, the scholars were more or less happy to deal with him, but although Xu Xiuneng is a noble son, but because of the infamy of the British father, he has always been despised by the scholars, if he comes forward to agitate, it will not be so vigorous." He Zhan also agreed: "In this way, this Xu Xiuneng not only has literary talent, but also seems to be good at scheming. ”

"He wants to attract Wei Yuanping's attention and pave the way for his career." Shi Niang figured out who the person who was "heart-to-heart" with her was, and she didn't pay too much attention to it, but just said to He Zhan with a smile: "Although you reported in front of Wei Yuanping early, but because Xu Xiu was able to intervene with Chai Tori, we were completely left on the sidelines this time, and it was unexpectedly smooth, but since the current situation is already like this, we can't even dispense with the help of firewood, and the time has come to visit Wei Yuanping to suggest." ”
