Chapter 90
Press things down and let others continue judging.

Xie Mingtang thought for a while, took out a blank memorial, and wrote down everything he encountered in the rural examination.

"It's my fault that I didn't check for a while. There is no rule in this court that the answer is the same as the previous answer, and the literary talent of this candidate is extremely high, so I decided to admit this candidate, but such problems need to be eliminated. The minister suggested that in the future, the scientific examination should be distributed as a catalog of examination questions in previous dynasties to avoid duplication of examination questions."

"I have made omissions in the homework before the exam, and I would like to ask His Majesty to punish me."

Then, together with the deputy examiner Chen Yao, he opened the examination paper to check his name.

"No. [-], Hangzhou, Qin Guan Qin Shaoyou."

Summoned two imperial guards brought from the capital, ordered them to take the memorial and Qin Guan's test paper, and immediately go to Beijing to present it to the current emperor.

Qin Guan spent an afternoon reading in the study room of the other courtyard, and then came up with his own questions and tried to write a scripture. He found that his level was really poor, and the things he wrote felt that he was not level.

While he was studying hard, he didn't know that his examination paper had caused a lot of controversy in the examination institute.

Whether he can be admitted to Juren is already in the minds of others.

In the evening, Qin Guan had already been out for a day, did not have dinner in another courtyard, and took Erbao home.

When I got home for dinner, I heard from my mother that my brother Qin Zhang hadn't come back, and he was going on an outing with his classmates, and maybe he would sleep out tonight.

Unexpectedly, that nerdy elder brother relaxed after the exam and didn't come home at night.

Mrs. Qin also said that in the afternoon, Qin Guan also had classmates who came to him, but Qin Guan was no longer there, but the other party left an invitation to invite him to tomorrow's reception.

Qin Guan took the invitation and looked at it. It was a classmate he didn't know very well. He probably wanted to connect with him. Let's talk about it tomorrow.

He slept until the sun was up and didn't get up. The reception was at night. After breakfast, Qin Guan was going to another courtyard to continue his studies. At night, he was deciding whether to go or not. Han stopped him.

It was the burly man who sold tigers that he saw yesterday morning. The burly man stood in front of Qin Guan, hesitant to speak, and Qin Guan felt uncomfortable watching such a twisted gesture by an eight-foot-tall man.

"This strong man has something to do." Qin Guan asked.

The brawny man cupped his fists and bowed deeply to Qin Guan, and said, "Young master is abrupt, someone is called Xiong Tao, and I still want to thank you, young master yesterday."

"You're welcome, it's a small matter. By the way, you said yesterday that your brother was injured and needed medical treatment. How about it?" Qin Guan asked casually. He didn't know what the strong man opposite him was going to do to stop him.

Hearing Qin Guan's question, Xiong Tao had a look of embarrassment on his face, and said: "Yesterday, I asked the doctor to treat the trauma, but my brother is still awake, and he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead."

"Then stop me, what's the matter?" Qin Guan asked.

Hearing what Qin Guan said, Xiong Tao felt a little embarrassed again, but he couldn't help but hold back for a long time before he said: "I hope to borrow some money from the young master."

Before Qin Guan could say anything, Xiong Tao hurriedly said: "I know that I have never met you, and you helped me yesterday, but I have no relatives in Hangzhou, and I don't even have a single acquaintance, so I don't know where to go. Who, so I thought of the young master."

A man who is eight feet tall, a warrior who dares to hunt tigers, is willing to bow his head and beg someone for a loan must have encountered a difficult situation.

What Qin Guan lacked most was money.

"If you have anything to tell me, if you can help me, I will not refuse." Qin Guandao.

Xiong Tao hesitated for a moment, looked at the people passing by on the street, and then said, "My lord, can you find a secluded place to talk."

"Alright, let's talk in a box at the teahouse in front." Qin Guan said.

After the refreshment was served, Xiaoer pushed it down, and Xiong Tao then talked about his own affairs, "It was my younger brother Xiong Ping who was injured. The two of us are from Qingzhou Prefecture. We have been studying arts with our master Zhou Tong and intend to serve in the military. .”

Qin Guan was taken aback, and quickly asked: "Wait, do you have any brothers named Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, Shi Wengong, Wu Song, Yue Fei?"

Xiong Tao was taken aback by Qin Guanwen, then shook his head and said, "No."

Qin Guan let out a sigh, and then said, "Go ahead."

"Our brothers originally planned to go to Beijing to see if we could find opportunities, but after arriving in Jinling for a year, we found that there was no way to get naturalized, and our brothers had nothing to do with each other. In the end, we were discouraged and prepared to go home."

"However, on the way to Hangzhou, another group of people came when we rested at a tea stall by the roadside. There were about twelve or three of them, all dressed as traveling merchants, and carrying two carts of goods. We didn't I care, but when the group was about to leave, a box suddenly fell from the car, revealing the gold and silver treasures inside."

"Our brothers didn't intend to cause trouble, but those people saw that they had exposed their wealth, so they couldn't help but take out their swords and kill us. They hacked the tea stall couple to death, even the seven or eight-year-old children of the couple, and this gang The strongman's force is impressive, our brothers didn't have any weapons in their hands, we were caught off guard by them, and my brother Xiong Ping was seriously injured."

Qin Guan was also nervous, and asked, "Then what happens in the end."

"In the end, I snatched the steel knife from one of them and killed four or five of them. I was afraid that my brother would be killed, so I had to snatch him and escape. Then I carried him all the way to Hangzhou to seek medical treatment."

Qin Guan asked curiously: "Yesterday you said you wanted to seek medical treatment from a doctor, but how can you use 50 consultation fees to treat traumatic injuries?"

Xiong Tao sighed and said, "My brother was injured by a knife. If he went to an ordinary hospital for treatment, it would inevitably be reported to the government. After all, we killed someone, and the couple and the child at the tea stall died too. I am not familiar with the place, so I am afraid that something will go wrong."

"The robber kills you and you resist, what deviation can you make?" Qin Guan asked puzzled.

Xiong Tao hesitated for a moment before saying: "Young Master is a man of fame, so naturally he is not afraid of the government, but ordinary people like us can only be cautious."

"That group of strong people is not a kind person at first glance. I guess, they are not robbers or bandits, or people from some powerful forces. If the local government can't find out who killed the couple and they are held accountable by Shangfeng, who knows what will happen?" This crime of murder will be imposed on our brothers. So I only dare to pay a high price to hire a doctor, and the doctor has assumed the responsibility for treating the disease, so naturally the price is skyrocketing."

Qin Guan sighed in his heart. When he came to the ancient society, because of his identity, he didn't encounter any difficulties. He felt that the ancient life was very comfortable, but if he was allowed to travel to an ordinary person, his life might not be so good.

Qin Guan asked again: "Isn't your brother already healed? Why do you still need to borrow money?"
