"Something big happened, something big happened."
"Report to the official, report to the official, report to the official quickly."
Some people took the lead and others followed. Suddenly the whole inn was in chaos. The thief shouted at everyone not to rob, but no one paid attention to him. The more people robbed, the more violent they became.
"It doesn't matter if we get the evidence later. This matter should be done sooner rather than later. We must convey the news to Tianting as soon as possible." The person who spoke was a disciple of the Kong family in Shandong.
"I said there was something wrong with this scientific examination, and it turned out to be true. The scientific examination leaked the questions, and there is more than one person who knows the questions. Investigate, we must find out the truth and give us justice."
It’s funny to say that except for the direct lineage of the Kong family, no one from the collateral lineage passed the exam.
The students cried and screamed, holding on to the official to prevent them from leaving. They insisted on asking the official to give them an answer. No matter what the official said, they would not let them go.
Obviously his test scores over the years were only under Feng Sijin, so why didn't anyone stand up and say a word for him this time when he was among more than a hundred people, saying that he was being treated unfairly
Soon the banknotes on the ground were robbed. At this time, someone discovered the paper on the ground. Several scholars picked it up and took a look, and their expressions changed immediately.
"Some people actually knew the scientific examination questions in advance, prepared the questions in advance and memorized them. They only had to write them down in the examination hall."
The Confucian family in Shandong had a transcendent status among the students, and even the collateral members were convinced by everyone. When he spoke, people immediately cooperated, and everyone was convinced that he was in charge of the overall situation.
Under the control of the disciples of the Sun family, the students, who were like a pile of scattered sand and refused to obey anyone, became a rope. No one disliked anyone. Everyone helped each other, hoping to find evidence as soon as possible and give them a clear scientific examination...
The inn was crowded with people and snakes. Some people saw the banknotes scattered on the ground and squatted on the ground to grab them regardless of whether they were moral or unethical.
There is strength in numbers, and thousands of students are running around in the capital, quickly attracting the attention of ordinary people, but the old emperor who is grading the papers does not know yet...
All the students cried out for Feng Sijin one after another, and many people cried out for Jing Yan, but no one cried out for Jiao Xiangdi. Afterwards, when Jiao Xiangdi learned about this, he couldn't help but wiped away tears: How insignificant was he
"The sky has eyes, the sky has eyes!"
"Also, whose baggage just now belongs to him? This person is not the owner of the baggage. He is definitely a thief. Get him quickly."
Especially since there is not just one banknote, but hundreds of them.
Qi Mao did not disappoint. He did bring a lot of banknotes with him, but his banknotes were all sandwiched in articles and books. The thief took a look and made sure there were banknotes inside, so he didn't care. , just grab the baggage and leave.
"In the capital, there are only a few great scholars who will ask for our orders and can also ask for our orders. After thinking about it, I feel that a virtuous hermit is the most appropriate person. What do you think?"
Writing pleadings, collecting evidence, and finding highly respected scholars to help them suppress the battle, everything must be arranged.
"Bank notes, bank notes, lots of bank notes." The first thing people discover is that they are valuable things like bank notes.
The official was trapped in the inn, and the news could not be reported to Shangfeng. However, the news about the leaked questions in the scientific examination was not trapped in the inn. The people who were originally in the capital were about to leak the questions in the scientific examination immediately after receiving the news. The matter was publicized.
Among the students, Qi Mao, the son of a wealthy merchant from Jiangnan, was the most famous. This fame does not refer to his talent, but to his wealth.
Hearing this sound, the whole inn was in chaos. Some people wanted to take the opportunity to run away, but at some point, a group of strange people appeared outside the inn. These people did not enter the inn, they just blocked the road.
As the sound sounded, more and more literate people went to pick up the paper on the ground, and the faces of those people were as wonderful as a palette.
If only the officials were here, today's matter would most likely be suppressed, but with the candidates for this year's scientific examination, today's matter would not be reduced to a major matter or a trivial matter.
It sounds like a coincidence. Today is the day of the palace examination. All candidates who pass the examination must enter the palace to take part in the palace examination, so the thieves saw their opportunity.
"That's how it is. That's how I passed the imperial examination. No wonder I ranked second in high school."
…
Going to the palace to file a petition does not mean rushing in directly but making careful arrangements in advance.
The evidence for leaking questions in the scientific examination is conclusive, and it would be unreasonable for the government not to deal with it.
For such a rich and flamboyant man, thieves should not even try to target him.
Everyone couldn't think of a better candidate, so they nodded immediately: "We listen to Brother Kong. Brother Kong, don't worry. We will go and invite Xian Yin."
The thief succeeded and left immediately, but he didn't want to bump into someone downstairs. The baggage in his hand was knocked away by someone, and all the contents in the bag spilled out, like a goddess scattering her flowers with one step, scattering all over the floor.
"What are you doing?" Someone shouted dissatisfied, but the other party did not answer, and only guarded the outside tightly. However, when the officials and officials who were sitting around the Waigongyuan arrived, these people disappeared again.
Where is the Kong family? The disciples of their family are from the side line, so there is no reason for their reputation to fail. However, the few side lines of the Kong family that came this time have all failed, just because they are not famous and no one pays attention to them.
"Quick, go and call the people outside the Gongyuan. This is evidence. This is all evidence. No one is allowed to leave. You are all witnesses at the scene. Whoever leaves is the prisoner."
All the cadres gave full play to their strengths and did their job well. It was difficult for them to write a petition, but it was difficult for them to collect evidence and ask a scholar to speak for them.
Anyone who knows Qi Mao a little bit knows that Qi Mao is generous and spends a lot of money, and does not use the money as money at all. He told his friends privately that he came to the capital this time to take part in the scientific examination and brought one million taels of silver notes with him, so he would not be short of money for anything he needed.
The students who were stranded in Beijing and did not leave were furious after learning about this incident, and they clamored to go to the palace to complain.
Members of the Kong family in Shandong went to Beijing last year to prepare for the scientific examination. In addition to the direct line of the Kong family, there were also several people from the collateral line who participated, but not many people knew about it.
Although the literati rebellion failed in three years, the troubles they caused were enough to cause headaches. Each official was entangled by several students, and they did not dare to take heavy action against the disciples, let alone doing serious business. I can't even leave.
"Those people can get on the list because they have two spare cash at home, and they have no knowledge or skills. I have been studying hard for more than ten years. Although my knowledge is not very good, it is more than ten times better than those people. There is also Mr. Feng Mr. Jing Yan, who has become famous all over the world in these two days, is a man of first-class talent, yet he is suppressed by a bunch of clowns, how unfair is the sky!"
