Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1670 Flaws
When Wei Wang Li Tai returned to the mansion, he was very happy.

It can be said that what happened early this morning went exactly according to his plan.

He knew that the news would spread in Chang'an City soon, so even if his father didn't punish Qin Tian, ​​he even kept saying that he believed in Qin Tian.

But once the rumor spread in Chang'an City, the common people felt that Qin Tian was suspicious. At that time, would his father still choose to believe it?
Even if his father could continue to believe him, the common people would think that Qin Tian cheated, and that was enough.

A person who is regarded as a taint by everyone, naturally cannot be mixed in Chang'an City.

Defeating Qin Tian is equivalent to cutting off the wings of Prince Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian has no wings, how can he fight against himself?

Regarding this point, Li Tai was very confident.

And just when Wei Wang Li Tai was very complacent in the mansion, Qin Tian returned to the mansion.

Not long after he arrived at the mansion, Qin Feiyan hurried over.

At this moment, Qin Feiyan was a little flustered and nervous, his whole body was like a drawn bowstring, which might be thrown out at any time.

"What's going on, how did Ma Zhou end up in prison?"

After hearing the news that Ma Zhou was imprisoned, Qin Feiyan hurried over, she couldn't believe it was true, her husband was the chief examiner, why did he imprison the chief examiner?

And with the help of my younger brother, my husband won't be imprisoned no matter what, right?
But he still came, because in the past two days, she could clearly feel Ma Zhou's uneasiness.

She didn't ask much, but she also knew that it was because of the imperial examination, or in other words, because of the imperial examination.

Today, things really happen.

Qin Feiyan looked at Qin Tian, ​​who looked calm and said, "Sister, don't worry, you go home and wait, Ma Zhou will be fine, and he will be home soon."

"Really?"

Qin Tian nodded: "Of course it is true. Whenever I have lied to you, I will quickly find a way."

Qin Feiyan hesitated for a moment, but then turned around and left. He didn't stay in the Qin Mansion any longer.

First, he believed in his younger brother, and second, he didn't want to burden his younger brother. His existence would only affect his younger brother's thinking.

Qin Feiyan came and went quickly.

Here, Qin Tian began to think about the ins and outs of the whole matter, in order to be able to find some clues.

The matter involved his family, and it also involved him, which made his mind a little confused, so that it was not as clear as before, but more importantly, he was also involved, which made him a little confused when dealing with things. Can't let go.

Even if he finally found out the truth, he might not be able to convince the public, right?
However, Qin Tian still thought about it carefully. Now, he already knew that this matter was arranged by Li Tai. However, there are two possibilities for Li Tai's plan to succeed.

The first possibility is that Song Tao has real talent and learning, he can write well in the investment bank exam, and he can also write well in the exam, but in the palace exam, he just needs to write casually.

The second possibility is that Song Tao knew the exam questions before the exam, and he had already asked someone to write a beautiful article to memorize it before the exam, and he would write it silently during the exam. In this way, the palace exam At that time, the articles he wrote were naturally impossible to be good.

Both of these are possible. According to what Ma Zhou said, although Song Tao's temperament is not top-notch, he still has a little knowledge.

However, Qin Tian was more inclined to the second possibility. If Song Tao was really the number one scholar, he might have some conceit, so how could he help Li Tai with such a thing?

People do some things for the sake of being better, but Song Tao's doing so will not do any good. Even if Li Tai can give him in the future, it will definitely not be comparable to what he has a champion now.

Therefore, the most likely thing is that Song Tao has a certain amount of talent and learning, but he will definitely not be able to pass the No. [-] Scholar exam, and it is even a little difficult for him to be a Jinshi.

And this kind of adventure is totally worth it for him.

It's like, a poor man will definitely work harder than a rich man.

After thinking about it for a while, Qin Tian felt that the second option was the most likely, and if the second option was the most likely, then who leaked the topic?
There are only four people who know the topic, he, Li Shimin.Zhang Lao and Sun Lao, he and Li Shimin will definitely not leak it out, the only possibility is that one of Zhang Lao or Sun Lao leaked it.

Thinking of the two of them refusing to leave, Qin Tian felt more and more suspicious of them.

However, the two of them have been imprisoned in the palace all this time. If so, how did they pass on the names of the test questions?

This conspiracy against him and Ma Zhou was really flawless.

Qin Tian frowned and pondered, and after a long time, he finally found a little loophole, and he believed that following this loophole, it would not be difficult to find out the truth, but now that he had a special status, he couldn't intervene in the investigation at all.

As for the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, Gao Shilian was in charge of the Criminal Department. He had a grudge against him, so he probably wouldn't want to help him, would he?

As for Dali Temple, Qin Tian smiled wryly. He is not very familiar with the officials of Dali Temple. Of course, it does not mean that he has no cronies in Dali Temple, but his cronies are not big enough to control the situation, and they are equal to Gao Shilian. the point.

In this way, even if he has a loophole, it will be even more difficult to intervene in the investigation.

Qin Tian knew the way, but he was powerless.

He walked up and down the mansion in a hurry. At dusk, he received some news from the prison that Song Tao was tortured by the people from the Ministry of Punishment, and they were all severe punishments, the kind that made people die. When he was severely punished, he refused to say anything.

After hearing the news, Qin Tian was not very happy, but a little worried. The more Song Tao said nothing, the more people felt that he was covering for Ma Zhou.

If he said that he was instructed by Ma Zhou, it would make people feel suspicious, but the more he didn't say it, the more suspicious he would be.

Qin Tian's eyes were fixed, the development of the matter was much more serious than he imagined.

At this time, news about Ma Zhou also came.

Ma Zhou was also tortured in the prison, and it was a severe sentence. He passed out three times, but he refused to say anything.

Hearing this news, Qin Tian's expression suddenly became solemn. He decided to go to the palace tomorrow. There are some things, even if they are difficult, he still has to do them.
