Chapter 546 The Family's Conspiracy

The conversation between Yue Shan and Guo Lin was clearly heard by everyone. Now everyone is no longer taking chances. It turns out that there are still suspects among them.

At this moment, everyone around them became suspects, and the scholars who were united just now fell apart in an instant.

Seeing that Guo Lin was so angry that he vented more air than breathed in, Yue Shan did not provoke him further, turned around and said to the crowd: "Don't take chances, I can tell you that the saint is very angry, and everyone will not escape punishment. Saint It means that all people exiled for three thousand miles will not be forgiven."

"Wow..." The crowd was completely chaotic, and many people even cried bitterly.

Looking at the panicked group of people, Yue Shan sneered in his heart, but he said with a look of pain on his face: "Do you think this is over?"

"Because you are all from Dizhou, even the sages and ministers in the court have doubts about the scholars of Dizhou. Some ministers proposed that the scholars of Dizhou should not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination within ten years..."

"Pu Tong Pu Tong..." Hearing this, many scholars fainted.

It is not unacceptable to be exiled for three thousand miles, but the latter... They will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history, and their family will be torn to pieces by the angry Dizhou people.

After death, he will be spurned and insulted by the people of Dizhou, and he will never have peace.

"Qingshuihou, we were wronged..."

"I really didn't intend to fight against the court, I was bewitched by them..."

"I was also bewitched, it was him, it was him, Lu Renbing, it was Lu Renbing who told me that the family would target us, let us go to Lingnan..."

"That's right, it was Lu Renjia who bewitched me. He said at the beginning that people from the aristocratic family would retaliate against us, but I didn't believe it. He also said that Lingnan has many opportunities and it is easy to make political achievements..."

"I was bewitched by Ailon, he whispered in my ear every day..."

"..."

In a short while, more than a dozen people were pointed out.

Some people point it out, and naturally some people complain that they have been slandered, and the attempt becomes noisy like a vegetable market for a while.

Yue Shan just quietly watched them bite each other.

The purpose of his interrogation of Guo Lin was to let the group of scholars know that there were rats lurking among them, and then after a little threat, these scholars who had become frightened would abandon all benevolence, righteousness and morality, and crazily identify others.

Of course, it is too exaggerated that a dozen or so of the fifty or so people are rats, and some of them must have been wronged, but as long as the general range is locked, the rest will be simple.

When things got to this point, Yue Shan didn't have time to play with them anymore, so he left a sentence for this group of scholars: cooperate honestly and find out the mice, and he will plead with the emperor to save their lives.

Then he handed over the matter to Xu Shanying, who left with a few guards himself.

Why is he so sure that there are mice behind it?Because this matter is so simple that there are no twists and turns.

The more knowledgeable people are, the more ideas they have. There are 55 ideas among 55 people, and it is difficult to unify their thinking.Some people are afraid of being retaliated by the aristocratic family, so there must be some people who are not afraid.

Some people want to go to a difficult place like Lingnan to gain a great future, while others don't want to go to such a barren place to suffer.I managed to rely on an official to enjoy the blessings, and whoever wants to go to Lingnan will go.

53 people with a unified caliber, jointly signed a letter to go to Lingnan.Don't think about it, there must be someone behind it to guide.And those who lead them must mingle among them.

With this in mind, the rest will be easy to handle.

……

At night Xu Shanying returned to the mansion tiredly and told Yue Shan the result of the interrogation.

A total of seven mice were caught, six of them were born in gentry and rich families, and one was born of poor people.Moreover, the six scholars from gentry families all had enmity with him.

For example, Lu Renbing was the younger brother of Lu Renjia, the magistrate of Bohai County who was killed by him.

Yue Shan is not blindly being kind to others, he has also investigated the family members of these corrupt officials, and all those guilty of crimes have been liquidated.But because Lu Renjia died too early, his family was left out during the liquidation.

There is also Ai Long, who is the nephew of the corrupt official Ai Qingkun who was killed at the Yanci County Public Trial.

The reason why the commoner framed him was also very simple, he was bribed.

He has never enjoyed the glory and wealth in his whole life. He was invited to the brothel a few times and enjoyed the gentle rural life a few times, and he fell completely.

As for why there are so many descendants of Yueshan's enemy family participating in the imperial examination...it's very simple. In ancient times, there were few poor people who could study, and the worst was the family of the little rich.

The Dizhou education and government system has only been established for two or three years, and it is still early for the children of the common people to learn from scratch. Most of the people who can stand out now are those who have studied before and have a certain foundation.

And most of this group of people are the children of officials and wealthy landlords.

Who in Dizhou hates Yueshan the most?It was this group of officials and wealthy gentry, and Yue Shan killed many of them back then.

So strictly speaking, half of the 55 scholars have feuds with Yue Shan.

But as mentioned above, it's not that the world of martial arts doesn't have so many joys and grievances.Yue Shan killed people in accordance with the law, and they felt uncomfortable and would not take revenge.

But there are always some exceptions. With hatred towards Yue Shan, someone provokes a little bit, and a conspiracy is born like this.

The seven of them were bribed and bewitched to induce everyone to jointly fight against the appointment of the imperial court, trying to implicate Yue Shan and arouse the emperor's suspicion of him.

The people who bought them did not hide their identities. There were three of them, they were the junior stewards of Cui, Wang, and Zheng's family, but those three people disappeared after the incident.

The five surnames and the seven Wang family, the Cui family, the Wang family, and the Zheng family all acted together, so it is no wonder that these people know the way.It is estimated that they thought that they would be able to climb up to the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs from now on, and they would be prosperous from then on.

It is not at all surprising that the family behind it is the ghost Yueshan, and it is they who can figure it out with their toes.It's just that they didn't expect them to be so arrogant and openly come to buy people.

The most annoying thing is that there is nothing I can do.

Let those seven idiots identify the Cui family, the Zheng family, and the Wang family?It's useless, there is no evidence at all, people will say that you are biting and slandering.

As for the three stewards, they were already hiding now, and it would be very difficult to find them.

Besides, so what if the three stewards are found?There is no video and no written records, so why do you say that someone else did it?

The five surnames and seven wangs are too powerful, and the methods to deal with ordinary people do not apply to them.Unless there is solid evidence, they can only get away with it.

But Yue Shan wasn't disappointed either, he had guessed this kind of result from the beginning, so there was nothing to be disappointed about.It's enough to write down this hatred, and find an opportunity to get back in revenge.

And now he is worried about another thing: "Have you asked who told Guo Lin the truth about Guo Wenchang?"
