Chapter 100: Can't be lifted
Supervisor Zhao slowly walked in front of Su Ziji.
As soon as he arrived, Supervisor Zhao noticed Su Ziji, who had only been seen for half a month, and seemed to have changed a little.
"The style is outstanding, and the viewer can forget it. ”
This body and temperament, said to be a child of a poor family, but no one believed it, no wonder Yin Xiujie saw it, but was angry, it was a pity.
With such a bearing, comparing the sons of several princes, Supervisor Zhao first raised the possibility by three points, so he walked up to Su Ziji, smiled and asked knowingly: "You are Su Ziji, and you have the head of the first house?"
As soon as this middle-aged eunuch came, Su Ziji knew that this was the white-faced man he saw ten days ago at Zheng Lixuan's place, and it seemed that he had come to help him.
Because of the past, Su Ziji was not at a loss, but immediately realized that this might be the cause of the prince's bloodline, so he gave up his hand and spoke unhurriedly: "The student is Su Ziji, and he is the head of the case." ”
"A table of talent. ”
Supervisor Zhao said this casually, walked over, went straight to the number house, picked up the scroll on the wooden board and flipped through it, and said with a smile: "All kinds of fraud, generally people who know that they can't take the imperial examination, our family is very curious, why did the head of the government case cheat? Could it be that your government case is fake?"
As he spoke, he looked at the question with a lantern.
"Supervisor Zhao, isn't this appropriate?" Yin Xiujie frowned.
Even if you realize that you are indeed too hasty, this does not mean that you can look at a eunuch and read the papers of the provincial examination candidates.
What is this?
Supervisor Zhao glanced at him, and his calm appearance immediately made Yin Xiujie choke back the words behind him.
Thinking of the minister's advice to himself when he came, and then thinking of the emperor's temper, he would not allow the eunuchs to take power, since Inspector Zhao dared to do such a thing, I am afraid that he has confidence, and what confidence, can he have the confidence given by the emperor?
Sure enough, the next moment, Supervisor Zhao said: "Lord Yin don't have to worry, before our family came, the emperor specially allowed me to supervise Qiu Yan, and what is happening now, our family can still manage it." ”
Supervisor Zhao said this, Yin Xiujie knew that he had a token, so naturally he couldn't say anything, so he could only keep a dark face and be silent.
Even Yin Xiujie was silent, and a sleek person like Gu Wenfu, the deputy chief examiner, naturally fell silent.
Only the prefect Liao Qingge and Bai Hongzhi clenched their fists, and they wanted to attack, but no matter how upright they were, they were not young, and they were only the prefect (deputy examiner), if the matter was not clear, they would be suspected of being a criminal.
The grinding sound of paper was clear in the silence.
The candidates in the opposite room, the probe looked at this, and the candidates next to them didn't dare to say anything, so they could only try to listen to the movement.
"Go, take all the scrolls of Su Ziji, and show them to our family and all the adults. "Who knows, it's not enough to read a scroll, Inspector Zhao ordered again.
Without waiting for others to object, the Tsing Yi people had already walked away from the two, holding a stack of rolls and sending them down.
Supervisor Zhao really didn't treat himself as an outsider, he looked at it first in front of everyone, and then sent it to the adults present to watch in turn, with a slightly shrill voice with a little sarcasm: "Ladies and gentlemen, you are all in the examination room for a long time, and you have fought all the way from the county examination, the government examination, the provincial examination, the meeting examination, and the palace examination. ”
"I'm very familiar with the article, take a good look at it, this article still needs to cheat in Qiuyu?"
When the notes of physical evidence are written, they are just some knowledge points, and these are helpful to the Moyi questions at most during the county exam, and they are meaningless to the scriptures.
"Who thinks that by copying the sentences in these books, such an article can be written, our family will move all the four books and five classics, let them read it, and let him write one for our family on the spot!"
As soon as these words came out, it was obviously a favoritism, Tan Youshan couldn't interject, but at this time, he wanted to break the net, and he didn't want to have it before he had time, and the eunuch's words angered Liao Qingge.
Although the prefect can't interfere in the autumn season, but it is about fraud, the prefect really talks about it, and it is not completely out of the relationship, more importantly, the person who reported the fraud was brought by himself, Liao Qingge has not read the article, so he said coldly: "This is very wrong, even if the article is good?"
"This note is entrainment, even if it is only written with one word, it is still entrained. ”
Although it may not be buried by this candidate, there is no evidence that he did not bury it, so he should be convicted of fraud. ”
Su Ziji can not prove his innocence, he should be dealt with according to guilt, this is suspicion of guilt, although there is no such word in this era, but the principle of justice is like this, what Liao Qingge said is justified.
And Bai Hongzhi finally couldn't bear it anymore, bowed down and said: "What Lord Liao said is, why don't others have a note, but Su Zizhi has it?"
"The house is obtained by temporary lottery, does the slanderer still know that his number house is not successful?"
"Even if you know, the three days of movement are all in our watching, and the patrol does not enter the number house, how can you bury paper in the ground to frame him?"
"It should be seen by the lower officials, not only must the fame be removed, but also the punishment must be heavy to show that it is emulated. ”
Tan Youshan was overjoyed when he heard this, and looked left and right, both of them are upright officials, and it is necessary to be such an upright official to kill Su Ziji and avenge his son's revenge.
Yin Xiujie didn't make a sound, just took the lantern he brought and looked at the exam paper carefully.
I don't have to read it, just read a few lines, I know that there may be something strange, not to mention the literary style of words and sentences, just say that this calligraphy, without hard work, will never be able to write such words!
can practice such words hard, can it be lazy and can't even memorize the simple Four Books and Five Classics?
As Supervisor Zhao said, the content on the note is just a transcription of the Four Books and Five Classics, and the handwriting is also very ordinary, which is simply different from Su Ziji's good handwriting.
Could it be that Su Ziji cheated and leaked secrets and asked outsiders to help him get a cheat sheet?
"Hmph, a whip, a mark, a slap and a palm blood. Supervisor Zhao was not afraid, and sneered: "It's not too late to wait until you read the article first!"
"I'll wait until I've read the article, and I'll talk to you about it. Liao Qingge and Bai Hongzhi were furious, and they had already thought that as long as they found their mistakes and omissions and fought for their future, they would also sweep this insulting student into the dust.
Just reading the article with the lantern, for a moment, not only Yin Xiujie, but even the prefect Liao Qingge and the deputy candidate Bai Hongzhi were silent.
In all fairness, if you take the hall exam, you can still be degraded, and in the provincial exam, even if you are a harsh examiner, you can't say that you can't let it fail.
Gu Wenfu, the deputy chief examiner, raised his head and said: "This son's article may not be Xie Yuan, there is always a list." ”
The first list is the top three.
"Haha, Lord Gu seems to know a lot about literary talent, you should have no objection to Su Ziji's talent, right?" Zhao Dou listened, raised his eyebrows, and laughed loudly.
"The lower officials can't say with a clear conscience that Su Ziji's talent is not good, but even so, if the suspicion is not removed for a day, he can't be promoted. Liao Qingge listened, couldn't get used to the rampant eunuchs, and said gloomily: "Let's put it aside if we don't reform the fame, but it is the duty of you and me to investigate this case clearly." ”
"It's a delay. Gu Wenfu said a pity.
"Even if it is delayed, it is his life. Bai Hongzhi followed: "Besides, this son is only fifteen this year, he is too young, and it is not a bad thing to press it." ”
