Yi Song

Chapter 184 This must be a miracle

"Linghu Yuanheng!"

"My subordinates are here!" Linghu Yuanheng, the general of the Divine Cavalry Army, responded immediately.

"Surround all these people who are shouting. The thief is shouting to catch the thief, and it is these bastards who are talking about it!" Liu Guozhang cursed, "No wonder they are angrily cursing the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Guard, and slandering inspections. It turns out that they are just trying to fish in troubled waters!"

"Yes!" Linghu Yuanheng immediately led people to arrest all the more than a hundred students who were rushing in front and swearing along with Gao Tianzhi.

Looking at his busy figure, Liu Guozhang felt that Tan Zhen's nephew was really useful.

Alert, diligent, and courageous in taking on tasks.

Yes, he is Linghu Yuanzi who Wang Yan and Chen Guang were ordered to tell the Hongying Party to look for.

His nickname was Yuanzi, and he later took the official name Linghu Yuanheng after entering the Forbidden Army.

He is the only son of Tan Zhen's biological sister.

The Tan family was originally an aristocratic family. Due to changes in the party, the family was destroyed. Tan Zhen was castrated by his enemies and sent to the palace, and his relatives were scattered everywhere.

After some discussion, hundreds of candidates lined up again, underwent inspection, and entered Gongyuan to wait for the exam.

We can temporarily forgive him for taking the exam for himself or bringing cheat sheets, but someone got the test questions in advance. This is simply breaking the moral bottom line of the Song Dynasty!

We can't help but be angry!

"Liu Jieshi, we can't prove whether these people got the test questions in advance. Gongyuan has just opened its doors, and the exam has not started yet. None of us know what the questions are about classics, principles, policy, and theory."

Most people are furious.

Under the supervision of Linghu Yuanheng, the subordinate officials quickly found out that among the nearly two hundred people, six took the exam for themselves, and eleven of them carried cheat sheets, five of which were written policy papers - this shows that this The five people also received the test questions in advance.

Liu Guozhang picked up a large iron loudspeaker, stood on a patrol car, and said to many students: "The test questions may be leaked! This matter is not trivial. I will deal with it immediately. Even if I go to the official court, I will deal with this matter Define clearly.

Liu Guozhang thought for a while and said.

Soon, more and more candidates were queuing up again. On the street in front of Gongyuan, the orderly scene before was restored.

His original surname was Linghu, and his name was Yuanzi. Later, he may have been named after his stepfather. He was mixed among the hundreds of thousands of children of the Imperial Guards in the capital, and his whereabouts were unknown. The Sanya archives are a mess. If you are not confused, how can you enjoy the empty quota?

Others slipped away quietly.

Everyone, please continue to line up, check and enter the Gongyuan examination room. If the test questions were not leaked, the exam would definitely continue. If the test questions are leaked, I believe that the court will definitely give everyone an explanation. "

Linghu Yuanheng stepped forward and whispered.

"It doesn't matter. Now several Zhigongju and fellow Zhigongju are sitting in the Zhisheng Pavilion of Gongyuan, watching closely to prevent the news from being passed on. The test questions were also written out early and sealed in the box, just waiting for the time. Once it arrives, take it out and make it public on the wooden sign."

"Yes!"

After Tan Zhen became prominent in the palace, he has been looking for relatives everywhere.

This opportunity comes only once every three years, and many people are unwilling to give up.

By some strange coincidence, he joined the Divine Cavalry Army and was assigned to Liu Guozhang's command as a personal soldier. He also made great contributions by pacifying the Tian Wenbao Rebellion.

By chance, I learned that my sister married an officer who was guarding the army and later moved to Hedong. The brother-in-law died in the battle there, and the sister remarried her nephew and returned to Gyeonggi.

Liu Guozhang announced the result, and tens of thousands of students discussed it.

"Yuanzi, take your people and continue to inspect the remaining students. I went to find some Zhigongju and Tonggongju, and asked them to take the wooden boxes containing the questions and go to the imperial palace together in front of the officials and several husbands. , check whether the test questions have been leaked."

Tan Zhen asked people everywhere to inquire, and Gao Qiu was invited. Liu Erlang also asked for a favor, but in the end he was found out by the powerful Hongying Party.

Zhao Kai hesitated and joined the queue.

Liu Guozhang took the four young generals into the Gongyuan and soon arrived at the Holy Pavilion.

"Open the door." The face of Wai Lang, the etiquette officer guarding the door, changed, "Liu Jieshi, this is against the rules."

"Rules? The test questions may be leaked. There are no rules anymore. You are still telling me the rules here."

Yuanwailang's face turned pale, "The test questions were leaked? But, but, according to the laws of the imperial court, no one dares to break the seal and open this door before the time comes."

"It's just that you don't dare to take this responsibility. It doesn't matter, I will resist this matter with all my strength. I took off the seal, opened the door, and I want to go in."

"Yes." Yuanwailang struggled for a while and finally opened the door.

Liu Guozhang took the lead and was sitting in the main hall drinking tea. The two Zhi Gongju and four fellow Zhi Gongju who were talking looked at him in unison.

"Liu Erlang, what are you doing?" The person who asked with a dark face and a bad tone was Zhi Gongju, Mo Chou, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.

In addition to being the number one scholar in the second year of Zhenghe, he was also a good friend of Huang Qianshan, Wu Min, Li Bangyan and others, and had a rift with Liu Guozhang.

"Just outside the Gongyuan, I checked and found the cheat sheet."

"Cheat sheet, which subject doesn't have a cheat sheet? Liu Erlang, you haven't taken the provincial examination, so you don't understand this. I want you to take part in the second year of Zhenghe."

"The cheat sheet contains well-written policy articles."

"So what?" Mo Chou was interrupted by Liu Guozhang and asked to stop showing off his glorious past. He was very impatient and could not turn his head for a while.

The faces of Zhi Gongju and Tong Zhi Gongju next to them changed drastically, and one of them blurted out: "Did the test questions leak?"

After hearing this, Mo Chou's expression suddenly changed, turning ashen as death.

"How is it possible? How is it possible that the test questions were leaked!" Mo Chou shouted.

Liu Guozhang took out six cheat sheets and placed them in front of several intellectuals. "These six cheat sheets all have the same title of policy article."

Several Zhi Gongju leaned their heads over and glanced at the topics on the cheat sheet with different expressions.

Some are like opening dye shops, with black, blue, purple, white and red coming in turns.

Some are like banana trees under heavy rain. The old bark is wet with sweat.

You look at me, I look at you, my eyes are evasive and furtive.

When Liu Guozhang saw how many people were acting like this, he understood clearly.

You people are so audacious. You have been selling the test questions for ten days and a half to an unknown number of people, and you still dare to continue to use them as official test questions.

You are not scholars, you are all the most trustworthy and honest model businessmen in the Song Dynasty. In order to ensure that the test questions I sell are authentic and reliable, I am really not afraid of anything.

Mo Chou's face could not change any other color. He held the cheat sheets and murmured: "How is it possible? This must be a coincidence!"

"Coincidence? One copy is similar. I still believe it is a coincidence. Six copies of the test questions are exactly the same. You still call it a coincidence? Are the people in the world fools?"

At this time, Linghu Yuanheng came in, holding more than ten cheat sheets, and reported: "Liu Jieshi just inspected 600 people, found four people who took the test, and found twelve cheat sheets."

Liu Guozhang took it and took a look and took out seven of them, "Now there are seven more copies, and the test questions are exactly the same."

"It must be a miracle! It's a miracle from heaven!" Mo Chou stared at a pair of blood-red eyes and shouted at everyone.

"Idiot!" Liu Guozhang cursed, "Come here, please bring the six ministers to Baozhuan Palace together with the wooden box containing the examination questions. Be careful not to break the lacquer seal on it.

We went to the imperial court and had a good argument in front of the officials and several husbands. "
