Chapter 949

When Tang Tong returned to the Yamen, Lin Laoba was also arrested.

The yamen servants dragged him out of the building.Good guy, after getting the money, he started to make troubles. He has been sleeping in the building for the past few days and never went home. He spent the 300 taels of silver that he got and only 100 taels left.

Tang Tongpan sneered, just such an old bastard, even if you give him 1 taels, he can't really live a peaceful life.

Seeing that he was arrested, Lin Laoba kept yelling: "No, my lord, the little one didn't do such a bad thing, the little one is innocent."

Pooh!

You are innocent, if you are innocent, where did the sleeping flower girl get her money?From the cesspit?

"Gu Chengxian has been recruited, but you still dare to speak hard, come on, hit me!" Tang Tong judged that he was too lazy to talk nonsense with such an old rascal, and immediately tortured Lin Laoba.

The yamen servants were not polite, they held Lin Laoba down and beat him.

Bang bang bang!

After a few strokes, Lin Laoba couldn't stand the pain, and said: "My lord, the small one is wrong, and the small ones are all tricks!"

Then he gave Gu Chengxian the bank note, and asked him to find someone who could cook for the government, and told him about putting entrainment in the dry rations of Gu Jinan and candidates named Gu.

He also shouted for injustice: "My lord, Gu Chengxian asked the younger one to do it. The younger one is innocent. Please let the younger one go for the sake of his age."

Tang Tong judge laughed, snorted coldly, and said to the yamen servant: "Keep beating until you hit thirty big boards."

"Thirty boards!" Lin Laoba almost fainted from fright: "My lord, spare your life, spare your life, hit [-] boards, the little ones will die!"

But Tang Tong judged Lin Laoba to be disgusted to death, and he didn't let go at all, and gave him a sentence: "Don't panic, the Yamen will be responsible for burying you if you beat you to death."

After saying that, he took the confession of Lin Laoba and Gu Chengxian to the ceremony room and told the matter to the Gu Zhifu.

After hearing this, the Gu Zhifu finally breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good to recruit."

This matter cannot be delayed, if the government examination is missed, the whole government will not be able to please.

Tang Tong asked, "What's going on here, my lord?"

Gu Zhifu said: "All the pancakes were broken and inspected. Except for Xu Zhaoming's and Gu Jin'an's pancakes, there were sixteen pancakes with writing notes in them, and all of them were taken out."

It's just that the pancakes are all broken. In this government exam, all candidates have to eat the broken pancakes.

And when it comes to the notes that were entrained, the ancient magistrate was angry. Either they wrote a thousand-character script, or a hundred surnames, and the Three-Character Classic. The most capable thing is that they wrote two poems. I really don’t know where Gu Chengxian’s books are read. up?If you want to entrain and frame people, you don't even put in a lot of effort. It's a shame to use this little knowledge to harm people!

Tang Tong was relieved, and asked again: "My lord, when will the exam start? The government exam can't be delayed."

Three games in three days, all arranged.

Gu Zhifu said: "It is estimated that the exam can only be started at night. Now the ceremony room is not clean, and all the servants, candidates, and the things distributed to candidates have to be re-checked."

This is a time-consuming matter, but it cannot be saved, it must be done.

Tang Tong judge nodded: "Your Excellency is thoughtful, and I admire you. If you need anything, please tell me."

The ancient prefect nodded in satisfaction, and immediately ordered Tang Tong to work. The servants of the entire government office, plus a hundred soldiers guarding the camp, were busy until the afternoon, before they checked all the things, chores, and candidates. .

Only then did the examination papers begin.

The ancient magistrate tightly sealed the news of this accident, but many family members of the candidates still sensed that something was wrong, and kept guarding outside the door of the ceremony room, asking the yamen servant: "Master, what happened in the ceremony room? What happened?" It doesn't look right."

Looking at the row of soldiers standing in front of the ceremony room, he was even more frightened, knowing that something serious must have happened in the ceremony room, and this incident must be related to fraud.

Cheating, this is a serious crime for the whole family, but they didn't see the candidates being escorted out, isn't it cheating?

The yamen servants had already received orders from the ancient magistrate, and said to them: "Don't worry, there is nothing serious in the ceremony room, but there is something wrong with the dry food in the kitchen. I am afraid that the candidates will have diarrhea, so I will make a new batch for the candidates. That's wasting time."

Then he shouted to the family members of the examinees who came over: "It's okay, it's okay, everyone, don't worry, all the candidates are fine!"

After hearing this, the big guys felt relieved, and after the lanterns were hung in front of the ceremony room, everyone dispersed slowly, and came to pick up people when the dragon gate opened.

Gu Dashan, Gu Dafu, Qi Panzi, Shang Xiucai and Mr. Xu waited until it was dark before leaving, muttering uneasy: "I hope nothing serious happened."

The children of several families are all taking the exam in it. If there is a major fraud case, even if they pass the exam, the fame may not count.

Mr. Xu is the oldest in grade, and he comforted them: "Don't overthink it, something will happen, but it is estimated that something will happen, otherwise it is impossible that no one will be escorted out."

But he was also terribly afraid in his heart. After working hard for several generations, he hoped that Brother Ming would change his family in high school and let the Xu family step into the ranks of nobles.If something really happened, the efforts of several generations of his Xu family would be in vain.

Xu's family, Jiang's family and Gu Dashan's family were on different roads, and they dispersed after leaving the main street together.

Gu Jinli already knew what happened in the ceremony room, and when Gu Dashan got home, he told him what happened.

After hearing this, Gu Dashan was terrified, and hurriedly said: "Why is Gu Chengxian so vicious? He ruined himself and wanted to harm Brother An. Then Brother An will not be affected by this matter, and be despised by the magistrate, right?"

The chief examiner of the government examination is the chief official of the state government. If An Ge'er is disliked by the ancient magistrate, he will fail the exam.

Gu Dafu and Qi Panzi were also very worried. One of their sons was a brother of the same clan as An Geer, and the other was a cousin of An Geer. If An Geer was rejected by the magistrate, their sons would also be implicated.

Gu Jinli looked at their nervous faces and said with a smile: "It's okay, my brother donated the turtledove leaf tofu and konjac tofu to the Yamen, and he can help the magistrate get the credit. Even if the magistrate is angry, he will only be angry with Gu Chengxian, not Gu Chengxian." Blame my brother, let alone brother Dexing or Mingcousin."

The three of them were relieved after listening.

Mrs. Chen cursed at the side: "My old lady has seen Gu Chengxian a long time ago, no, Li Chengxian has been a poisonous person since he was a child, look at him even doing such evil things, if he is really allowed to do it, it's a shame How many people died? I really lost my conscience!"

After scolding, he became envious again: "The Li family is really rich. Li Chengxian is already like this, and he can afford 500 taels of silver to buy Lin Laoba. Tsk tsk tsk, that's 500 taels, and you can buy a house in the county."

When it comes to buying a house in Fucheng, Mrs. Chen is very depressed: "Why do you say that it is so difficult to buy a house in this Fucheng? I have been going to the tooth shop for more than ten days, and the tooth said that there is no house for sale. , It’s also a few thousand taels, it’s really pissing off, I have money and can’t spend it.”
