Yu Qing sat in the most inconspicuous corner of a teahouse, but drank not tea, but wine.

The hat was pressed so low that it covered half of his face, and no one could see the worry in his eyes.

He didn't want to come, but if he didn't, he was afraid that things would get worse.

A scholar walked into the teahouse, stopped to look around, and saw Yu Qing with an empty pair of dishes and chopsticks on the table, so he walked towards Yu Qing.

Sit down at the table next to Yu Qing.

"Things have changed, they want to see Master Gu."

Jiang Pengcheng was worried that he couldn't sleep well all night, and it was okay for him to lie to Yan Yan and a few nerds back to them, but that Lord Gu was famous for judging cases like a god, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hide it.

Yu Qing said: "Just bite to death, if you still want a future, take care of your mouth." ”

As he spoke, Yu Qing took out a piece of broken silver and put it on the table, took the saber and got up to leave.

Jiang Pengcheng's hand holding the teacup was so tight that his bones turned white.

He understands that if he can hold on, he may have a future, and if he can't hold on, then he is an outcast.

He didn't even know who the other party was, and he didn't know who to identify if he did? There was no way back for him.

In a study opposite the teahouse, Gu Zhou stopped holding a book with a focused expression, and Zhou Li was waiting on the side.

Mo Yu came over: "My lord, Yu Qing is gone, do you want to arrest him?" ”

"No, wait for Jiang Pengcheng to come out, find a place with fewer people, arrest it, and send it to Dali Temple."

After Jiang Pengcheng left the teahouse, he went to a pen and ink shop and bought a brush, but the excuse he came out was that the pen was broken.

He was full of worries and walked back indifferently.

Suddenly, someone behind him called him.

"Jiang Pengcheng."

Jiang Pengcheng was stunned, no one in the capital had ever called him by name like this.

He slowly turned around and saw a man in a guard's suit and a sword walking towards him.

"Jiang Pengcheng, Master Gu is invited."

Jiang Pengcheng's frightened pupils suddenly constricted, and the pen in his hand fell to the ground.

A voice sounded in my heart...... Finished.

Jiang Pengcheng was taken to the interrogation room of Dali Temple.

Seeing the torture instruments all over the wall and the smell of blood in the air, Jiang Pengcheng couldn't help but tremble, and his brain was blank.

Gu Zhou stopped walking into the interrogation room, looked at Jiang Pengcheng, who was trembling, and sat down opposite him.

"Jiang Pengcheng, give you a chance to recruit from the truth."

Jiang Pengcheng knew that the matter had been revealed, but there was still a trace of luck in his heart, and he trembled: "Big ...... My lord, what do you want Jiang to recruit? ”

Gu Zhouzhu just looked at him quietly, releasing an invisible coercion.

"Jiang Pengcheng, yesterday at four o'clock you left a mark at the intersection of Kangji Street and Xingle Street, and today at the fourth o'clock, you went to this street intersection to check, and then just now you went to the Qingxin Teahouse to meet someone, your whereabouts are already under our control, and you are not honest." Zheng Guan said.

Jiang Pengcheng was like being struck by lightning, and sure enough, he was targeted, but he had never seen Master Gu, why did Lord Gu target him?

Or is it that Master Gu is targeting all four of them?

Yes, it must be.

Jiang Pengcheng is at war with heaven and man in his heart, to say it or not to say it?

The man's warning is still in his ears, what should I do?

After all, he is a person who only knows how to read and has never seen any major battles, and at this time, he is completely at a loss.

"Jiang Pengcheng, you have to know that the result of your active and passive saying is different, this official has been studying hard in your cold window for many years, so I will give you a chance, since your confidant doesn't know how to cherish ......"

"Tell me, I say." Jiang Pengcheng was about to cry.

"Someone found me and told me that Chu Feifan bought the test questions, and asked someone to write an article, saying that he was not a candidate, and no one believed him if he exposed it, so I asked me to find a few more people to expose this matter and give justice to the people who read the world."

"I'm also angry that someone is secretly operating such a serious and important thing as the Talent Ceremony and selling test questions, so ...... united with Yanhui and others to expose it. ”

"That's it? That man didn't do you any good? ”

"No, absolutely not, I am asking for the life of the world's scholars, just for justice, not for anything else."

Gu Zhou stopped sneering, if he wasn't familiar with Qin Siyue's personality, perhaps, he really believed Jiang Pengcheng's generous words.

"What's that man's name?"

"I don't know, I asked, he didn't say."

"What does it look like?"

"No...... I don't know, he is wearing a hat, and he can't see his face clearly. ”

Gu Zhou stopped and sneered: "His name is Yu Qing, and he is from the East Palace." ”

Jiang Pengcheng's face changed greatly, that person turned out to be from the East Palace?

"To be exact, the guards beside the crown princess of the East Palace, Jiang Pengcheng, I have given you the opportunity, but you didn't grasp it."

"Big ...... My lord, that's the way it is, I've confessed truthfully, really, I swear, every word I say is true. ”

Gu Zhou stopped and looked disdainfully: "Then how to explain the two hundred taels of money in your room?" I heard that your family is poor, and even the money you went to Beijing to take the exam was made up for you by the township, and the money for your hotel was still paid by Yanhui for you, but you hid two hundred taels of money, and it was the money opened by the capital, how do you explain? ”

Jiang Pengcheng's face was like ashes, and he couldn't hide anything.

can only explain it all in 1510.

At the end, Jiang Pengcheng asked, "My lord, can you tell me, why do you doubt me?" ”

Gu Zhou stopped slightly: "You are very unlucky, you met the county lord of Qingping, she is the best at observing words and feelings, reasoning about the case, she chatted with you for a few words, and then locked you, and you lived up to your high expectations." ”

The county lord of Qingping? Jiang Pengcheng reacted at this time: "Could it be that Jiang Shi is ......?"

Gu Zhouzhu ignored him anymore and said, "Let him draw a detention, and then take him to the prison of the Criminal Department." ”

At this time, Jiang Wanning was in the side courtyard where Yanhui and the others lived.

"Brother Jiang, are we really being used by Brother Jiang?" Liu Wenbin still couldn't believe it.

Although the official messenger found two hundred taels of money from Jiang Pengcheng's room.

Maybe it's not that he doesn't believe it, but he doesn't want to accept it, Jiang Pengcheng is the hardest at studying among them, and he is also the most honest and responsible.

I didn't expect ......

Jiang Wanning knew that it was difficult for them to accept this fact, and said with relief: "He did take advantage of you, the whole thing is a bureau, and several examiners in this section did not want to cheat for personal gain, but someone maliciously framed it, just for their own personal vendettas." In this matter, Lord Yao is the bitter master, and you are not wrong, on the contrary, your integrity and courage show the spirit of the literati and let people see the hope of the future court. If you can go to high school, and can always maintain this integrity and courage in your future career in the sea, and never forget the original intention of studying, it will be a blessing for the court and a blessing for the people. ”

Yan Hui bowed his hand and said solemnly: "Brother Jiang, Yan Hui swears here, if he can be named on the gold list one day and enter the official career, he will uphold his original intention and take the well-being of the common people as his own responsibility." ”

"So do we." Liu Wenbin and Du Qianyuan echoed.

Jiang Wanning smiled: "It's not enough to just uphold the original intention, you still have to have a few more eyes, officialdom is very complicated." ”

Everyone is ashamed, what Brother Jiang means is to let them stop being deceived.
