Dressed As the Deadly Opponent of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination

Chapter 81: Tooth for tooth

In the darkness, Pei Yunxiao sneaked back into his room.

Jinying turned on her bed and handed her a letter.

"Someone just stuck in the door." Jinnian said.

Pei Yunxiao took it over and took a look and signed it-Zhao Xiwen.

Opening the envelope, it was a long poem, and on the surface it said something that was beyond reach.

But Pei Yunxiao understood. Zhao Xiwen wanted him to open one eye, close one eye, and drag her into the group, and exchange the rankings of several candidates from Pei's school.

It is indeed the Zhao family, like Zhao Xizhe, arrogant and arrogant, and despise people the same.

It seems that Zhao Xizhe really has no right to speak in the Zhao family, but if Zhao Xizhe tells the Zhao family that he is a sister, Zhao Xiwen will not think that he is so stupid.

Zhao Xiwen and He Can would not have thought that they had already seen their plan in advance.

Want her to take Pei Yunxiao's back? Want to be beautiful!

"Jinian, go and send a letter to Zhao Xizhe. Tell him that if you want to replace Zhao Xiwen, you'd better do what I said."

"Also, tell my grandfather too. He has to let me take care of this, and let him clean up the mess for me."

"Little son, will this...?" Jinnian puzzled.

Didn't the little son always be extremely smart and capable in front of the patriarch? Why are you blatantly showing your timidity this time?

Pei Yunxiao turned his wrists: "Of course this kind of drooling must be handed over to skilled people. I'm busy, I'm busy advising your Majesty!"

Don't Zhao Xiwen and He Can want to use the modern exam to do things? See who can do it!

Three days later, on the day when it was supposed to be released, the gate of Gongyuan was heavily guarded and no one was allowed to approach it.

Candidates who are anxiously waiting for the ranking are as anxious as ants on a hot pot, asking for news from all walks of life, wanting to know what happened to Mei Chu

"Hey, I knew that something would happen in the examination hall this year, but I didn't expect it..."

In the largest restaurant in the capital, I didn't know that the sister-in-law suitor Pirate Su Shi hurriedly paralyzed Xi Ai immediately aroused turmoil in the surroundings.

"I heard that the Gongyuan has a major event, but no one knows the details of the sister-in-law. Now it is not on the list. What should we do?"

"I heard a piece of news two days ago. I thought it was fake at the time. I want to come now. It's true that the incompleteness is true!" Another mysterious **** said.

"Sister Chuanmei Chu rely on braising!" People around hurriedly urged.

"There is an examinee from Gannan in the provincial examination of the Science and Technology Department. I heard that there is a champion with excellent knowledge. He lives in the Yuelai Inn in the south of the city. Hearing from his fellow townsman, the student came out of the examination room a few days ago and suddenly became a stranger. Ill, white head overnight, looks like an old man in the seventies. It didn't take long before the person was gone."

"Ahhh, that's a shame! But what does this have to do with today's Gongyuan matter?" someone asked.

"You know sister Chuke said that before the end of his life, he was unconscious and murmured a word. He listened carefully. It turns out that this person has seen the test questions of this subject before the exam!"

"Sister Chu's thunderous news immediately attracted the attention of the entire restaurant.

"It is said that before the exam, a few candidates came to ask for advice with a few questions. The student answered all the questions with confidence. He was very contented. How did he know that when he entered the exam room and issued the questions, he found out that he was actually with himself What I have seen before is not bad! Maybe he was irritated and got out of the examination room, so he died..."

"What's the reason for this? Is it possible that some people leaked the test in advance in this provincial test? How can this be fair?" From the crowd, there were unrestrained questions from the candidates.

The person who talked about it at first heard it and sneered: "Just say that you students don't hear things outside the window. Why are you so sick?"

"Three days ago, during the assistant examination of the current subject, Master Pei of the Chinese Academy of Sciences was stabbed at the gate of Gongyuan and fell to the ground with serious injuries. People passing by can see it!"

"I've seen this too." A candidate echoed: "I saw Master Pei walking in a hurry at the time, and didn't even sit in the carriage. The stabbing man rushed out from the side and hit me."

...

The news spread more and more, true and false, intensified.

Some people say that the examiner leaked questions before the exam, some said that the examiner was assassinated while reporting fraud, and some said that the examinee from Gannan was actually killed by someone...

Finally, in the morning of the next day, the candidates who stood at the gate of Gongyuan eagerly waiting for the results received a message.

Qin Zicheng from Yushitai, Master Qin, heard the rumors of fraud in the imperial hall, and asked the emperor to perform a thorough investigation. All the examiners are now under house arrest in the Gongyuan, and they are not allowed to enter or leave without authorization.

The outrageous candidates gathered more and more in front of the gate of Gongyuan, expressing their solidarity with Qin Zicheng in their own way.

They firmly believe that Qin Zicheng, who has always been upright and unyielding, will definitely give them a fairest explanation.

Gongyuan.

"Yi Fei, now the capital is in chaos, what do you plan to do next?" Qin Zicheng looked at Pei Yunxiao, who was struggling with writing at the table.

A few days ago, he was shocked when he received Pei Yunxiao's secret letter. He didn't expect Zhao Xiwen and He Can to take the risk and do such an outrageous thing.

Pei Yunxiao, who was assassinated in the legend, was actually not hurt at all. She pointed to the two stacks of test papers at the table: "Here are the test papers of the dozen or so cheating candidates. I have all the same sentences marked in red. Master Qin, just as we said, we will show the list of test papers and give the candidates an explanation."

"The ones over there are among the failed test papers. Those noble and honorable test papers from aristocratic families, please ask Master Qin to pass them over to the Sage."

Qin Zicheng flipped through a few test papers, his eyes shocked: "This...how does this paper seem to have been burned by fire?"

"I burned it." Pei Yunxiao admitted without hesitation.

"If you don't burn, how can people feel that someone intends to destroy the evidence?"

Take out the burned test paper, whether it is the test taker or the emperor, will believe that someone sneaked into the Gongyuan to try to destroy the test paper after the fraud case occurred. And Pei Yunxiao, the deputy examiner who was "assassinated", was also unwilling to get along with it, and was attempted to "kill his mouth" after he rescued the test papers.

Don't Zhao Xiwen and He Can want to put her in with a serial trick? Pei Yunxiao's trick to draw a salary from the bottom of the pan is to firmly pin the hat of fraud on his two heads.

As for the fact that they wanted to use Pei’s housekeeping enemies among the failed candidates, it became even more nonsense to slander her and exclude dissidents in front of the emperor.

In this matter, it does not matter what the truth is, but the truth that everyone believes is important.

Pei Yunxiao really waits and sees who made up the lie the most.

"What about this? What is it?"

Qin Zicheng picked up the long piece of paper placed on the top. There was an alteration in the handwriting. It was not an examination paper, but rather like someone wrote it.

"I wrote it." Pei Yunxiao smiled lightly.

"The Gannan examinee was innocently deceived and wrote the test papers and was copied by others. With a guilty conscience, he died. In grief and indignation, my fellow villagers found out the initial draft of the examinee and submitted it to the investigator Qin Yushi as evidence."

"Master Qin, how about this story?"

Qin Zicheng was able to swallow an egg with his mouth open, and it took him a long time to say: "So...there is no swearing oath at all? Whose article did these dozen cheating people copy?"

"That person has been controlled by Zhao Xizhe, and the manuscript has long been destroyed, but it doesn't matter. As long as I need, I can write countless ‘evidence’, as much as I need." Pei Yunxiao said calmly.

"Aren't you afraid, Zhao Xizhe turned back?" Qin Zicheng asked.

Pei Yunxiao shook his head: "Master Qin, you are also an examinee who has participated in the imperial examination. If it is you, one side is a poor candidate of the same subject who was involved in the examination, and was tricked to write an article, regretting and desperate; on the other side was hired by a powerful man. I write articles on my behalf, and money and money are lost. Which story do you prefer to hear?"

"Or, which one do you prefer to believe is true?"

Qin Zicheng was silent.

"Master Qin, it is impossible to tell the truth about this matter from the beginning. Whether it is the examinee, your majesty, or the people, they only need to believe what they are willing to believe."

"Zhao Xiwen and He Can tried to use lies to manipulate the imperial examination, then I can only fight for teeth and defeat lies with lies."

Pei Yunxiao stood up, his eyes burning: "I know that Master Qin has always been upright, honest and selfless. Originally, I only needed to convince the adults that everything on the surface is the truth, that's enough."

"But I still choose to be honest with Master Qin, not for anything else, just because of my full admiration for the adults!"

"This..." Pei Yunxiao picked up a memorial that he had just written: "I wrote it to your majesty, the memorial about the re-examination of this subject."

"My lord, my only hope is to clean up the filth of the imperial court, so that the imperial examination can truly become a system for the imperial court to select and recruit good people. It is fair and rigorous, regardless of origin, and recruits talents based on virtue. As long as this goal can be achieved, even if it does not scrutinize the means, it will be there. Don't hesitate!"

Qin Zicheng was shocked.

He looked at Pei Yunxiao and handed him the memorandum with the ink not yet dry. Wherever he looked, he saw two suggestions-the exam paper name was written by someone.

If, with the help of Pei Yunxiao's ability, these methods can be realized as much as possible...Qin Zicheng thought.

He thought, he knew what to do.

According to Pei Yunxiao's plan, things moved forward almost without deviation.

More than a dozen fraud test papers with traces of fire were posted together with the "manuscript" of the Gannan candidate, which caused a great shock in Beijing and completely opened the prelude to the investigation of the fraud case.

The deputy examiners who were bought and lured by the Zhao family and the He family confessed one after another, and pointed the finger at Zhao Xiwen and He Can.

On the contrary, it was Lin Zhongpu, who had never participated, and Pei Yunxiao, who had done bitter tricks. One took advantage of the situation to return home and stay away from disputes.

Of course, the most praised person is Qin Zicheng, who has found out the facts. He has a clear reputation, and after this incident, he has become an example in the hearts of countless poor students.

Zhao Xiwen and He Canyin did not have direct evidence to correct them, but the seeds of suspicion in the emperor's heart had sprouted, and they were transferred out of the capital one after another.

In this case, Zhao Xizhe, who was invisible throughout the entire process, but actually participated a lot, soon relied on Zhao's resources to be promoted to three consecutive levels and was in charge of the household department.

One month later, the provincial exam will be retaken.

The name of the test paper is confused and transcribed by someone, and then the paper is sent for review.

After the list was released, Pei Xian's senior high school province won the top 50, and 19 of them all took the cold element.

After the palace exam, Pei Xian won the top spot as expected and stayed in Hanlin.
