Students from other schools also quickly apologized.

Tian Feng remained expressionless, neither forgiving them nor making things difficult for them.

Gao Xiucai's face turned green and white. He wanted to apologize but couldn't.

At this time, Xie Yucheng said to him: "Gao Xiucai, it is not easy to study hard for decades in a cold window, so scholars cherish their own feathers. Why can't you be so clear about it? It's a pity that you even vouched for someone like Qian Wen. Pity!"

Gao Xiucai's face turned pale, he opened his mouth, and found that he couldn't say a word, and then he fell straight down.

Xie Yucheng sighed and asked someone to send Gao Xiucai back. From now on, there will be no Gao Xiucai in Pingan County.

Gao Yong looked on with a look of regret. I guess everyone in Gaojiazhuang would feel sorry. After all, it was because of Gao Xiucai that several nearby villages were led by Gaojiazhuang. They were even proud of their daughter marrying to Gaojiazhuang. From now on In the future, these things will disappear.

Huang Zhengyang looked at Tian Feng, "How was it? Are you satisfied with the ending?"

Tian Feng clenched his fists, looked at the rest of the Qian family, then lowered his eyes, with a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth, "That's it!"

Huang Zhengyang knew that he was unwilling to give in, and said with relief: "Uncle is in this position, and every move is watched. The emperor allowed me to perform this performance today, so he naturally understands the pain in our hearts. But if we go too far, The emperor will definitely be unhappy.

The Qian family used to rely on Qian Wen to be tyrannical and did a lot of outrageous things. Now that Qian Wen has fallen, the people who committed their crimes must not let go. You can just watch their fate with a cold eye, and there is no need to dirty your hands! "

Tian Feng looked solemn and said, "Uncle, I understand. Don't worry, I won't pursue it any further."

Huang Zhengyang smiled happily and led Tian Feng away.

An imperial examination fraud case actually involved such a bizarre inside story. It spread in less than half a day. Everyone around the county knew about it. I am afraid that within two days, everyone in Ping'an County would know about it.

As soon as Gao Yong returned to Gaojiazhuang, he was stopped at the entrance of the village by the village chief and several clan elders.

The village chief asked anxiously: "Ayong, can you think of a way to deal with Gao Xiucai? You are a popular person in front of the county magistrate. Can you ask the county magistrate to be more lenient and compensate you for anything? Can you keep Gao Xiucai?" Fame?"

"Yes, yes! It's not easy to study hard in the cold window. Our village has only produced such a scholar in a hundred years. We can't just die because of that bastard Qian Wen! This is too unfair!" Another clan elder cried while wiping his tears.

Everyone looked at Gao Yong eagerly, and even invited Gao Yong's father to help intercede.

Gao Yong was furious when he heard this, "Village Chief! Can you stop making trouble? If the law can be such a joke, why should the law be used? After all, Gao Xiucai has to be blamed for this matter. Qian Wen was in his After staying in the school for so many years, he has trained him single-handedly. He can't tell whether his students are humans or ghosts, not to mention he couldn't tell them before.

I heard that this time Qian Wen offended Tang Xiucai. Gao Xiucai should have been wise to protect himself, but he actually gave Qian Wen a guarantee, that is, the college examination had not yet begun. Otherwise, Gao Xiucai would not only be deprived of his fame, but might also be imprisoned! "

The village chief and others turned pale with fright, "Ayong, don't scare us! Gao Xiucai only let go after the Qian family begged him several times. He doesn't know anything at all!"

Gao Yong sneered, "It doesn't matter if you tell outsiders, we are all our own people. If the Qian family didn't give Gao Xiucai enough benefits, how could he risk offending Tang Xiucai as a guarantee for Qian Wen? That's the hospital examination." It hasn't started yet, but the county magistrate didn't pursue it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to eat and walk around!

Also, don’t worry about this matter anymore, and don’t call me cold-blooded. To tell you the truth, the imperial envoy you saw in court today is a third-grade official. The county magistrate is only a seventh-grade official. He is not even qualified to speak in front of the imperial envoy. None, not to mention that there are big shots above the imperial envoy who are watching. If you interfere again, I'm afraid it will implicate the entire Gaojiazhuang! "The village chief and all the clan elders were trembling with fear.

Old Man Gao took Gao Yong's hand and asked tremblingly: "Ah Yong, how big is the big man you mentioned?"

Gao Yong scratched his neck with his hand inexplicably, "A big shot who can kill people just by opening his mouth!"

Old Man Gao was frightened and turned to look at the village chiefs, "Hey! We really have no choice now."

A few people were obviously still determined not to give up.

Gao Yong didn't talk nonsense to them, and just said: "If you don't believe it, you will know it in a few days."

Everyone didn't understand it at first. They just thought Gao Yong was fooling them and criticized Gao Yong. Who knew that only three days later, the imperial edict came down. First, the homes of several high-ranking officials including Jia Peng, the prefect of Quzhou, Zhao Kui, the prefect, and three generations of close relatives were confiscated. After being exiled, some petty officials in Quzhou Prefecture were arrested and killed. For a whole month, bad news came out every day.

Only then did the elders of Gaojiazhuang Village realize that Gao Yong was not an alarmist, and that the actual situation was more serious than they imagined.

This imperial examination fraud case, Weijiang embankment breach case, and the assassination of an imperial envoy ended with the execution of Jia Pengju and others. Half of the officials in Quzhou Prefecture were dismissed. Thirty scholars and one hundred and eighty children were deprived of their honors, and half were sent to prison. Qian Wen is one of them.

The Qian family was panic-stricken and did not relax until the government's verdict came down. Before they could curse Tian and Qian Wen, those who had been taken advantage of by the Qian family came to their door one after another, all asking for money.

All Chen's mischief and wallowing were in vain. All the valuable belongings in the house were looted, including the iron pot.

Mrs. Gao looked at her parents-in-law and Qian Duowang angrily, "It's you who said Qian Wen has a future and you stick to him for everything. I don't accept it and you still scold me. Now because of him, my home is gone and I have worked hard for dozens of years." All Nian's things are destroyed, I don't care, we will separate today, all the fields and houses must be given to me, otherwise we will make peace!"

Mrs. Gao was sure that the Qian family had a bad reputation. If she and Li Qian Duowang were to marry each other, they would be single for the rest of their lives.

Old Man Qian and Mr. Chen were angry and resentful, and they had nothing to do with Ms. Gao, because Mr. Gao was telling the truth, but the second child was also a victim.

For a moment, both Old Man Qian and Mrs. Chen were undecided.

Angrily, Mrs. Gao turned around and went into the house to pack her clothes.

The two children in the first room hugged Mr. Gao's legs and refused to let him go.

Mrs. Gao snorted coldly: "Your grandma would rather pamper a bastard than your two grandsons. What are you doing here? Why don't you come with me!"

"Mother! Are you crazy? I don't agree with you leaving!" Qian Duowang was angry and anxious when he saw that Mrs. Gao was serious, and hurriedly asked his parents for help, "Mom and dad, do you really want to separate my wife and children?" ?”

Old Man Qian's face was green and white, his eyes were scarlet, and he struggled for a long time before he squeezed out a word from his teeth, "Okay! I'll give it all to you! I'll give you the house and land!"
