Chapter 189
Xiao Yu nodded: "It is related, the identity of the deceased is unknown now, but according to others, this person may have been a scholar in his lifetime."

"Scholar?" Zhen Qingping paused, "A scholar from Datong Academy? If so, maybe I will know him."

Xiao Yu was also taken aback, she hadn't thought of this, "I'm not sure if he's from the capital city or from another city, but if my uncle is free, you can go and have a look with me, maybe you really know him. "

Zhen Qingping smiled: "Happy to help, it would be great if I could help."

The Zangshu Pavilion is right in front of you, Xiao Yu said as he walked, "The suspect is the third son of the Yongping Houfu, Zhao Lu, does your little uncle know him?"

"I know." Zhen Qingping's eyes showed a thoughtful look: "I am older than him, and I don't have much contact with him, but the few times I meet him, I don't feel good about him. The first time I saw him smile, I somehow felt a little fake, his smile seemed to be only on the surface, not from the heart, so I didn't have much contact with him."

After he finished speaking, he turned his face to look at Xiao Yu's expression. What made him happy was that Xiao Yu didn't feel that he was frivolous and hasty because of his arbitrary judgment. Instead, he nodded in agreement: "I don't like Zhao Lu very much either. I also feel what my little uncle said, but on the other hand, I think he is lying."

Seeing Xiao Yu go back and forth, the two guards at Zangshu Pavilion rushed forward with Zhen Qingping, "Young Master Qingping——"

Zhen Qingping smiled and said, "I'll take the prince to find something."

"Okay, please—"

The two pushed open the door to let them in, Xiao Yu followed behind Zhen Qingping and said, "I want to check Zhao Lu's exam papers for that year."

"Do you doubt Zhao Lu's grades?" Zhen Qingping glanced at her in surprise, and then led her through the bookshelves to the stairs of the Library Pavilion. It’s easy to check, but it hasn’t been opened for more than a year, so it’s probably full of dust.”

The stairs are also old, and they creak when you step on them, with a bit of an old smell.

The so-called compartment has a door on the westmost side of the second floor. Zhen Qingping picked up the lock and twisted it a few times before opening it. Xiao Yu asked in surprise, "Is this a mechanism lock?"

Zhen Qingping nodded: "Yes, that's all."

Pushing open the door, a simple and unsophisticated book smell rushed over, Zhen Qingping waved his hand, and opened the small window at the back to take a breath after entering.

Just as the sun was setting, the afterglow dyed half of the sky red, and layers of clouds were plated with gold, lazily piled together, brewing unknown wind and rain.

The breeze blows in from the back window, Zhen Qingping let out a soft breath: "It feels like it's going to rain."

Xiao Yu looked around: "Why do you say that?"

Zhen Qingping turned around, the sky was embracing his thin back, and the evening breeze was gentle, as if a crane flew from the sky and was about to carry him away with the wind.

Xiao Yu shook his head, and couldn't help but feel that the Zhen family has a good skin.

Zhen Qingping said with a smile: "There is moisture in the wind, and the clouds outside the mountain are so thick, maybe there will be heavy rain tonight."

"Then hurry up and look for it. If it rains heavily, it's not easy to go back to Beijing."

Han Yi reminded me, Xiao Yu nodded: "Yes."

Zhen Qingping shook his head: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome."

He casually took out a mahogany box from the shelf beside him, and when he opened it, there was a neat stack of papers inside, "This is it."

Xiao Yu was startled, watched him take out the paper and handed it in front of her, and said with a smile: "Little uncle is really familiar with Zangshuge."

"When I was young, I was very naughty, running all over the mountains. The dean had nothing to do with me, so he just stayed by my side and let me follow me in everything. After a long time, I have traveled to every place in this academy, and the Library Pavilion also No exception, when I grew up, the dean asked me to help him organize the files, so I remember clearly where the files are placed."

"All the test papers from last year are here, and the first one is Zhao Lu's."

Xiao Yu's eyes fell on the top, and her eyes froze for a moment. She caressed it with her fingertips hesitantly: "Have people from your academy read it?"

"Of course not. The test papers were already packed in a box when they were delivered, and they were sent upstairs for storage. No one can take them out without the emperor's handwriting. So, this is also the first time I've seen them. "

"Then how does the little uncle know that the first one belongs to Zhao Lu? Was it arranged like this before?"

"That's right, it's sorted by ranking."

Zhen Qingping came over and looked down, "Well written, no wonder Huiyuan, although many political theories are a bit immature, but fledgling, with a bit of madness that is not afraid of anything, it is normal. In general, Flaws do not conceal virtues."

Listening to his evaluation, the strange feeling in Xiao Yu's heart became more and more intense, she said to Han Yi: "Take out that piece of paper."

"Master, here—"

Han Yi handed the previous paper to Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu spread it out on the table, "Look, little uncle, do you think something is wrong?"

Zhen Qingping looked sideways, "Huh?"

He reached out to pick up the paper, compared it to the paper, and slowly frowned.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu and Han Yi looked at each other, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Zhen Qingping put down the paper and clicked, "This paper is a bit too clean, it seems that the whole paper is done in one go, without any thought, there is no trace of flaws at all, it stands to reason that the test paper is not willing to be so perfect, there will be more or less Ink marks or scratches, but it does not rule out the possibility that he was full of ideas at the time, and you see—”

He clicked on the word "Li" on the paper, and then clicked on the word "Li" on another piece of paper, "People have their own habits when writing, such as the word "Li", which obviously likes to write When the pen was heavy, the dots were round, but this one is obviously light and the dots are narrow and long. If one can understand that it was written in a hurry at that time, but the latter is also narrow and long."

Xiao Yu's eyes lit up: "It's really like this. I said it was strange but I couldn't say it. The little uncle reminded me so that I found out that the handwriting on the two pieces of paper is very similar, almost authentic, but there are still many subtle differences. It’s not easy to see at first glance.”

"So one of these two sheets is not Zhao Lu's handwriting?" Han Yi pursed her lips, "This piece of paper is taken from Zhao Lu's past assignments, so it shouldn't be fake, right?"

"If yours isn't a fake, then—this is the fake."

Xiao Yu tapped the test paper lightly with his fingertips, "Little uncle, can I bother you to read these test papers again, and help me find if there are any similar writing habits?"

Zhen Qingping smiled gently: "Of course, wait for me a moment, I'll go get a lamp and come in."
