The emperor glared at the crown prince, "Then what do you say?" Do all good scientific examinations have to be invalidated and retaken? ”

The prince thought about life cautiously for a while, "Erchen thinks that there is no need to invalidate, after the scientific examination, we can have a public review and pick out all those with similar answers." ”

"The level of these answers is insufficient, and the current top three are definitely not enough."

The prince was quite disgusted with this set of answers, and his level was only in the upper middle, and he could barely mix it up.

So...... It's interesting.

The emperor also came interested, "The order goes down, the exam continues, and there is no need to catch cheaters anymore." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

An official was ordered to go down to inform, but Mo Xuan stood there and did not move.

Since you are out, you can't go back in as an invigilator.

Just right, you can take a break for a few days.

It's a pity that Mo Xuan's wishful thinking did not succeed, and he was arrested by the prince.

"Alright, just follow me to investigate this!"

Ignoring Mo Xuan's resentful eyes, he grabbed him and didn't let him leave.

At this time, the fourth brother left, the tenth brother was still young, and there were only a few people who could use it, and the Hou Ye would definitely not invite him, and the prince asked the emperor to send him to deal with other things, it could only be Mo Xuan.

Fortunately, Mo Xuan came out of the invigilation team.

Mo Xuan was a hundred unwilling, but he could only be forced to follow.

The crown prince also felt that his father had been so lazy that he was afraid of being lazy recently, and he was reluctant to criticize the folds, and sometimes he was reluctant to go to the court.

Fortunately, his father didn't go to any harem yard, otherwise he would have doubted whether he was fascinated by a woman.

The biggest object of suspicion is the teacher who compiled the exam questions, followed by the disciples under the names of those people.

Several teachers were assessed and observed by the imperial court at various levels, and they really didn't believe that these people would leak the exam questions.

When the exam questions were compiled, they were all uniformly chosen to live, during which these teachers would not meet anyone, and there were only one or two trusted assistants around them.

After a few days, the expedition was finally over.

I don't know how many people breathed a sigh of relief and just waited for the results to come out.

The crown prince and Mo Xuan quickened their pace, after all, it involved the future of each student.

So many people cheat, it's unfair to normal candidates.

Soon the day of public review was reached, and for the first time such a situation had occurred, and it had never been before.

In the past, there were only a few people who judged the score, and these people couldn't guess it, but they had to do it.

The weather was clear, the stove was burning in the room, and the teachers sat in front of the desk, judging a separate paper, and did not even prevent them from discussing it with each other.

Although there are many papers, there are also many people, and all the papers are reviewed in a whole day.

His Majesty looked at the scholars standing below, drank a cup of tea, and said, "How is it??" Can the top 10 papers be judged? ”

After discussion and comparison, the top ten rolls were singled out and waited for the emperor to determine.

"Back to Your Majesty, a student named Shen Zhou is very knowledgeable, comparable to the Mo Zhuangyuan of the year, and the lower officials feel that Shen Zhou is the first."

"The minister seconded the ......"

The emperor listened to the discussions, and some people explained the life experiences and family situations of these people.

"I ask you, what other problems have you found?"

The people below don't dare to speak out, what does Your Majesty mean? Is there any cheater among these people?

They read it, these ten people are all really talented, the article has unique opinions, the writing is very good, and it took a long time to decide on these ten people.

Seeing His Majesty's displeasure, a teacher stepped forward boldly, "There is a matter of the minister, and among the 100 volumes criticized by the minister, 15 of them are written in the same way, and the answers are similar. ”

"At first, I thought it was a student from the same teacher, but later I found out that these students came from all over the world, and few of them came from the same place."

The teacher mentioned it, and this gave everyone a hint.

"Xiaguan has 8 copies here!"

"There are 12 servings here, and I was puzzled at the time, but I didn't think much about it."

A few of the same can also be said to be a coincidence, now so many, will it be ......

The person who reacted instantly broke out in a cold sweat and unconsciously shut his mouth.

"Put all the similar rolls away."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

There are those who are careful, and they put these together when they are reviewed, and there are also those who are in a hurry, and it took them a long time to find out.

This shows a person's ability, especially now when he shows his face in front of the emperor.

At this time, several officials who compiled the exam questions knew that it was not good, and their legs trembled and came over to read it together.

Just turned over a few photos, and a scholar's eyes went dark and he immediately knelt down.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what's going on!"

The others also came back to their senses, "Your Majesty, the minister is wronged, and the minister has definitely not leaked the question!" ”

The emperor looked at the few people expressionlessly, "Even if you don't leak the question, can you guarantee that your assistants and apprentices won't leak the question?" ”

These scholars have countless disciples, and their assistants are also personally assessed by them, believing in their character.

But now that all the evidence points to those assistants, is it because they are clumsy?

Several people were speechless, looking at the assistant's eyes full of pain.

I saw several assistants kneeling on the ground one by one, most of them looked normal, but two of them were trembling slightly, their hands prostrate on the ground, and they were bent slightly unnaturally.

Which one of those present is not a human elf? Looking at the movements of the two, I immediately understood something.

The prince stepped forward, holding some paper in his hand.

"Lone will give you another chance, if you admit it now, then Lone can intercede for you, and it doesn't involve your family."

The prince's tone was flat, and he couldn't hear the joy or anger, but it was enough for the two of them to tremble.

The two looked at each other, they thought they were doing something hidden, they had no handle, and they believed that as long as there was no evidence, even His Majesty could not sentence him casually.

Seeing that the two were stubborn, the prince snorted coldly and opened the paper.

“…… A month ago, the two stole the test papers, and sold the first one to Zhao Xuexue, and the cashier was two-two...... Cashier 10 taels...... 4 taels ......"

Reading out the records one by one, the two actually made a profit of 410 taels of silver.

Chu Hou sneered, "The literati style is only worth more than four hundred taels of silver?" ”

The hall was silent, I don't know whether it was shame or nothing to say, everyone was silent.

The prince finally finished reading, put away the paper, and threw his hand at his father, "Father, the two are conclusive, their crimes are unforgivable, and they do not repent, involving a total of 203 students, implicating 5 officials, please ask my father to adjudicate." ”

The emperor tapped on the table with a mockery on his face, and all the literati and artists below him unconsciously lowered their heads, their faces full of shame.

"Really...... My good courtier. ”

A group of ministers hurriedly knelt down.

The emperor said with interest, "Publish all this data, the two of them will be on the street for half a month, and the whole family will be exiled after half a month!" ”

"All students are involved, scientific examinations are prohibited for six years, and if students are not satisfied, let them find them by themselves!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"
