MTL - A Complete Explanation of the Negative Textbooks of the Imperial Examination-Chapter 46 fraud

"The day before Lang Jun left the mansion, Miss Biao also came to Qingzeyuan, what's wrong?" Qiu Ju replied with some trepidation.

"Cheng Hui is here?" Hearing Qiu Ju's words, Xiao Jingduo's mind flashed, and he quickly asked, "What time and where did she go? "

"It was just the night before, when it was getting dark. Lang Jun was reading a book at the time. I don't think it was a big deal, so I didn't bother Lang Jun with this matter." Qiu Ju covets carefully With Xiao Jingduo's expression on his face, he asked hesitantly, "Lang Jun, Miss Biao left after standing for a while, is there any problem?"

Xiao Jingduo did not answer, he had a bold guess in his heart, he asked: "Where was she standing at that time, is there my book cage next to it?"

"Yes, before Lang Jun's book was moved out, I cleaned the book cage and put it with the luggage, so that I could take it and leave the next day. When I went Miss Biao was standing in the room where she put her luggage, I asked her if she wanted to see Lang Jun, Miss Biao just said no... Hey Lang Jun, where are you going?"

Before Qiu Ju could finish speaking, Xiao Jingduo turned his head and strode out. The people who crossed the courtyard were startled when they saw Xiao Jingduo: "Darlang-Jun, why are you here? Madam Gu is now in the Gao Shou Tang, not in the courtyard."

"Is Cheng Hui really here?"

"Miss Biao is naturally there... Hey, Dalang-Jun, this is not suitable for etiquette!"

Xiao Jingduo ignored the noisy maids on both sides, hurried into the courtyard, and stopped in front of Cheng Huizhen's room. When the other maids in the yard heard the sound, they hurried over and looked at Xiao Jingduo vigilantly: "Master, what are you doing?"

"Go inside and tell me that I have something to call Cheng Huizhen."

"This..." What is this, the maid is unhappy, but seeing Xiao Jingduo's face, they looked at each other and didn't dare to disobey. A maid who looked like a maid bravely stepped forward and wanted to reprimand Xiao Jingduo for being rude, but Xiao Jingduo just glanced at her indifferently, and the maid immediately cowarded, so Nuonuo responded: "Slave, go now. Tell the girl."

Cheng Huizhen heard the commotion outside the door long ago, and after hearing the report from the maid, a guess floated in her heart, and she quickly said happily: "What are you doing, why don't you turn the watch Brother, please come in!"

When Xiao Jingduo came in, he was not as gentle and kind as Cheng Huizhen imagined, but his face was frosty. Cheng Huizhen was a little nervous and asked tentatively, "Cousin, why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"

"What are you talking about?"

Cheng Hui really thought about it and asked cautiously, "Cousin, did you see that piece of paper?"

Hearing this answer, Xiao Jingduo only felt a burst of anger rushing to his forehead, as expected, Cheng Huizhen did it! Cheng Hui really didn't know what was put into his book cage, and it also fell into the hands of other people, and the most important thing is that Xiao Jingduo himself knew nothing about it!

It was so daring, Xiao Jingduo suppressed his anger and asked as calmly as possible: "What did you put in my book cage that day?"

When it was found that something was wrong, Cheng Huizhen's note was taken away by Dong Peng. Dong Peng was also daring. He didn't make a statement after he got it. Instead, he used it in the exam papers. That's why Dong Peng's behavior was so abnormal that day in the courtyard, and he even faintly revealed the arrogance of a high school.

Hearing Xiao Jingduo's question, Cheng Huizhen would be wrong, but said with a smile: "Cousin, don't worry, I know the seriousness. I didn't put anything, and cousin didn't have anything either. See. Cousin, you don't blame me for making up my mind?"

What do you say? Xiao Jingduo had a headache with anger, he looked at Cheng Huizhen coldly: "I haven't seen your so-called note, I don't know what you wrote on the paper, if you still have some brains, you'd better take advantage of it. Now bring everything you do to the truth."

Don't see it? how is this possible! Cheng Hui was really panicked. She remembered that the exam in the ninth year of Qiyuan was very famous in her previous life. This year, not only did the essay exam be temporarily added, but even the exams were out of scope. Countless candidates complained about this imperial examination, but the same This year, many celebrities have appeared on the list, including powerful officials who will become famous in the future, and eccentric people who are famous for their talents. The most famous of them is Xi Wenji, who was avoided in second place because of his excellent writing. .

It is said that the examiner took the test of "Tian Wen", which is an ancient novel, on a whim. Facts have proved that this examinee's arrogance is also justified. His articles are excellently written, his words are fluent, and his emotions are abundant. When he asks and answers "Tianwen", it is true that no one can agree with this article for thousands of years. 's sound. But because the writing was so good, the examiner changed this person from the first to the second in order to avoid suspicion. After the list was released, the article "Tian Du" immediately became popular in Chang'an, and the name of the author of the article, Xi Wenji, became known to the world.

When he was the most popular, almost everyone in Changan knew about "Tian Du", and no one knew about Xi Wenji, who changed from first to second because of his excellent literary talent. Cheng Huizhen, as the cousin of Hou's mansion, In order not to be left behind in the circle of noble girls, it is natural to learn to read Tian Du.

After coming back from rebirth, Cheng Hui really thought for a long time, what ability she has to attract Xiao Jingduo's attention. After thinking about it, her only capital is to know the future.

So with the only memory she had left, she wrote Tian Du on a note and secretly stuffed it into Xiao Jingduo's bookcase. With Cheng Huizhen's understanding of Xiao Jingduo, he would definitely read before the exam, and then he would be able to find her note. Whether Xiao Jingduo used it or not, her intentions had already been conveyed, and Xiao Jingduo would naturally see her value.

However, because it's been too long, Cheng Huizhen can't remember the specific content of Tianzhen. Besides, Cheng Huizhen is not a person who is proficient in words. Duan, now after a lifetime, she has already forgotten most of the article, and can only remember the beginning and the end, as well as a few famous sentences on and off. But these are enough, Cheng Huizhen believes that with these, Xiao Jingduo can greatly seize the opportunity, so that he can become famous in one fell swoop and replace Xi Wenji. In the previous life, Xi Wenji, the second natural scenery, was extremely beautiful, but for Xiao Jingduo, it was a bit embarrassing. Cheng Huizhen felt that she had obtained a great benefit for Xiao Jingduo, Xiao Jingduo must be very grateful to her, and will treat her with admiration from now on. Today Xiao Jingduo rushed to find her is the best proof, but Cheng Huizhen never thought of it. , Xiao Jingduo actually said that he had never seen that note?

How is this possible?

Cheng Huizhen had no idea, her lips were sullen, and her confused mind suddenly reacted: "Cousin, what do you mean by this? What do you want to do when you ask about this?"

Xiao Jingduo laughed lightly. It turns out that Cheng Huizhen also knew that this kind of practice was fraud. Since she was afraid of being implicated, why didn't she know she was afraid when she stuffed him with things without telling him?

"It's too late to tell what exactly you wrote."

Cheng Huizhen's face turned pale, she took two steps back, and said sharply and hastily: "No, I don't know anything, this matter has nothing to do with me!"

"To tell you the truth, I have handed the note to the examiner, and the Ministry of Rites will soon send someone to investigate this matter. You tell me all the details now, and I may be able to help If you turn around one or two, if the time comes from the Ministry of Rites, then I will not be able to save you." Xiao Jingduo said.

If Cheng Huizhen was a little more vigilant, or her mind was a little sharper, she would be able to find Xiao Jingduo's words inconsistent. He just said that he had never seen the note from beginning to end, but now he said that he had handed the note to the Ministry of Rites. Such a contradiction, it was obvious that Xiao Jingduo was deceiving her. But Cheng Huizhen didn't react. She thought that Xiao Jingduo was telling the truth, so she lowered her face and explained everything honestly.

"I don't know what's wrong recently, but I honestly have some strange dreams. A few days ago, I saw an article in my dream, and it was like a masterpiece. The Bodhisattva in the dream told me that because I Sincerely, I showed me the topic of this scientific examination in advance. After I woke up, I couldn’t forget it for a long time, but I couldn’t tell outsiders. two."

After finishing speaking, Cheng Huizhen secretly looked at Xiao Jingduo's face, but Xiao Jingduo just listened calmly, neither believed it nor did not believe it, but asked, "What else?"

Cheng Hui was really frustrated, and she didn't know how Xiao Jingduo saw that she was not telling the truth, she could only continue to add: "I also saw the strategy questions of this exam in my dream, so I wrote it together. On paper. I, I really didn't mean to miss the question, I just wanted to help my cousin..."

Help? Xiao Jingduo was sarcastic, in his opinion, Cheng Huizhen clearly wanted to kill him. Fortunately, Xiao Jingduo woke up early this time. If he didn't know until after the incident, it would be too late to say anything.

The imperial examination was missed, and the source was from him. The consequences were simply unimaginable.

"Is there anything else you're hiding from me?" Xiao Jingduo asked coldly.

Cheng Huizhen was frightened by Xiao Jingduo's face, and shook her head timidly: "No more."

Cheng Hui really didn't dare to say, she really can't remember, so she doesn't know whether the strategy topic she wrote on the note is this year or another year.

Xiao Jingduo stared at Cheng Huizhen for a while, until Cheng Huizhen's head was getting lower and lower, and he almost burrowed into the crack of the ground.

Xiao Jingduo knew that Cheng Huizhen had made a big mistake this time. If this matter were to be revealed, what would happen to Cheng Huizhen? Xiao Jingduo didn't know, but he would never be able to please himself. The slip of paper that left the question was circulated from him, which was simply an indefensible crime.

Fortunately, if you find it early, everything has a chance to be redeemed.

Xiao Jingduo didn't have time to go back to Qingze Courtyard, so he went directly to the stable to lead a horse, and ran out of the Hou Mansion. After coming out of Dingyonghou's mansion, Xiao Jingduo rushed to Dali Temple.

Xing prison, the master of Dali Temple, many people come in and out every day. Xiao Jingduo pulled his horse and stopped at the entrance of Dali Temple, and ran to the Yashou of Dali Temple in three steps: "This official, I have something important to look for Li Qingyun and Li Sizheng, please pass the message for me!"

That afternoon, Xiao Jingduo met Rong Ke in a different courtyard.

"It's you? You asked Li Qingyun to find me, what's the matter?"

"The county lord, I suspect that this imperial examination was fraudulent."

The author has something to say:

Small Theater:

Xiao Jingduo: The person who cheated was me.
