Chapter 313 I Didn’t Cheat
Chapter 313 I Didn’t Cheat
"what?"
Huo Changming opened his clear and stupid eyes, still confused.
He pointed at himself and stuttered, "Kui...Kui Shou?"
"No... no, not at all..."
The young man took a step back suddenly. If one didn't know, one would think that this list was some kind of monster.
Everyone wants to say it, but no one believes you are.
Then he said, "I didn't cheat."
Be a real man, if you can pass the test, take it, if you can't, take it again, what's the point of cheating!
And Huo Changming knew that the leader must be Li Xingsang...
He looked at the young master, his hands nervously grasping his robe, "Xingsang... it's not me."
He had never thought about passing the exam, nor did he want to gain fame and honor for his family. Huo Changming had no ambition to do that!
He wanted his own good friend more than this crappy leader.
But he was worried that Xingsang would think that he was doing whatever it took to pass the exam and enter the military camp.
Li Xingsang patted his classmate's shoulder and said in a soothing tone, "I know you won't do such a thing."
The young master smiled and said, "Don't be anxious. Listen to what the prince says first."
Hu Yan: "You can't even hear the hidden meaning between the prince and me, how can you think of cheating?"
Besides, even if Huo Changming cheated, isn't Xie Yunshan a better choice than Xu Baiwen, whom he doesn't even know?
Just swapping the papers.
Xie Yunshan was responsible for guarding the Autumn Examination, and even the test papers of the examinees were guarded by his men in black armor.
Huo Changming came over, "Uncle Hu, what...what sound?"
Hu Yan held the folding fan against his forehead and remained speechless.
"Snapped!"
He knocked the boy's head with the folding fan in his hand, and said angrily, "I have been tutoring you since you were young, and you can't even remember the four words 'hidden meaning'?!"
The memories of being dominated in his childhood came to his mind, and the young master returned to Xingsang feeling aggrieved.
He said stubbornly: "I...I just didn't hear it clearly."
So, what was it that he didn't understand?
Li Xingsang pulled at his robe and whispered in Huo Changming's ear: "Last time, the prince told you that you had to take part in the autumn examination before you could enter the military camp..."
"The prince asked you to participate, but he didn't say you must win a place."
In other words, Huo Changming can actually join the military camp now!
Here, Jiang Jichen and the others were talking about Xu Baiwen, when they heard Huo Changming yell.
Him: “Really?!!”
The little girl was so frightened that she trembled and the cake slipped out of her hand, rolling and rolling until it rolled to the middle.
Jiang An blinked his eyes and took another piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth as usual.
Huo Lang glared at his son and said in a rough voice, "What is this? Is it real or fake? Keep your voice down!"
The lady was scared!
After scolding his son, he turned around and said, "Your Majesty, please continue."
Listen to this impolite tone.
Jiang Jichen moved his lips, feeling powerless in his heart. Forget it...
"The gate of Songhu Villa does not need to be closed. The black armor will take turns to guard the examination papers in the middle hall for three days."
"Release all officials except Xu Baiwen in three days and review them again."
"This matter is handed over to Xie Yunshan..."
General Xie, who was grinning, immediately shut up.
"As for the trial of Xu Baiwen, it will be handed over to the government office. I will not be involved..."
"Your Highness..." the young general said in a faint voice.
He held up four fingers. "I only had four days off!"
Let someone else grab it, ball!
Xie Yunshan pointed at Hu Yan and said, "He's quite free, you can assign him to the position~"
The old fox lowered his eyes to look at the finger and raised his eyebrows.
"I have some trivial matters in the army. General, do you want my help?"
"Not many, just a hundred or so..."
Xie Yunshan straightened his expression and looked at Jiang Jichen, "Your Majesty, I suddenly feel like I can do it again!"
"Master, I'm leaving now!"
Are you kidding? He has to review hundreds of memorials.
The little girl who stole the cakes looked left and right, stood on tiptoe and raised her paws.
Her eyes sparkled. "So, how are you?"
"What am I doing~"
Jiang Jichen patted her head and said, "Go play with your classmates."
Jiang An pouted, "Okay."
Jiang An took her classmates to her newly opened Baoju shop as soon as she said she would have fun.
There were all kinds of horses there, even one or two rare good horses!
In the evening, the prince successfully harvested another dirty girl~
The old father picked up his daughter with a gloomy face and took her to wash her.
He directly ordered that the little girl was not allowed to leave the house for the next two days!
The little girl who was carried by her father smiled awkwardly. Her dark face made her teeth look quite white.
In the next three days, Xie Yunshan led his men to blockade Songhu Villa.
A notice was posted outside the door, saying that all students' test papers had been sealed because the examiner had cheated.
Everyone passing by could see the grand scene of the black-armored guarding the central hall through the wide-open vermilion gate.
After dinner, the people all expressed their admiration that Prince Zhenguo was truly fair and selfless!
At the same time, the trial in the government office was also going on.
The evidence had been in the Zhenguo Palace long ago, and the trial was just a show with the help of the governor Wen Shoushi.
Three days later, Xu Baiwen was taken out of the government office. His hands and feet were shackled, and his inner clothes were changed into prison clothes. In just three days, he looked emaciated.
As an official, Xu Baiwen cheated in the Autumn Examination. The local government had no right to punish him, and the Zhenguo Palace did not want to be involved either.
Therefore, this matter has to be brought to the Dali Temple in Kyoto for retrial.
The common people who got the news early in the morning gathered at the gate of the government office with angry expressions. Considering the escorting bailiffs, they did not throw stones at the bastard, but tried to drown him with spit!
Huo Lang, who was fortunate enough to witness this grand spectacle, swallowed his saliva.
If the young lady and the prince had not intercepted the list in time, I'm afraid that the Huo family would also be spat on!
Thinking of this, General Huo became angrier and angrier, and called for a bailiff who was involved in escorting him to the capital.
He reluctantly took out two taels of silver from his own private money and stuffed them into the yamen runner's pocket, saying viciously: "You don't have to give him food on the road, as long as he doesn't die!"
The yamen runner took the silver with a smile and assured: "Don't worry, General, I won't even give him water to drink!"
Before Xu Baiwen was escorted out of Chongzhou City, the other officials were released.
They did not participate in the cheating, so they were innocent. After changing into their official robes, they went directly to Songhu Villa to review the test papers of the candidates.
Looking at hundreds of test papers, the officials wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, a wry smile...
Two days later, Heijia walked out of Songhu Villa again with the big list.
This time, the number of soldiers is more than twice as much as before!
They all held swords and had sharp eyes.
Hei Jia was still thinking about the thief he hadn't caught last time.
In this regard, the little girl in the restaurant box touched her nose and suddenly felt a little guilty.
With a "clatter", the big notice was posted.
Candidates were crowded together, looking for their names in the long list.
The name at the top of the list is Li Xingsang...
For a moment, everyone in Songhu Villa was shouting this name.
Those who know him want to share the good news with others; those who don’t know him want to see how talented this leader is.
"Xing-san!"
Huo Changming was squeezed into a mess by the crowd. He ran back in a hurry with sweat on his forehead.
The young boy's eyes sparkled, "You are the leader!"
"Xingsang is the leader!!"
"Oh hoo... hoo!"
"..."
There were constant atavistic cheers in the box. Huo Changming strode over and lifted the man up.
Li Xingsang was startled and slapped the fool on the head, "Put me down!"
Even though he said that, he had a smile on his face...
"Don't just look at me, go check out the big list and pay attention to your own ranking!"
After Li Xingsang's reminder, everyone seemed to wake up from their dream and scratched their heads with silly smiles.
