"Ha, I don't even have the courage to name a name. Do you deserve to say that my case is in doubt?"

Unlike the past low-key and forbearance, even though the other party had chosen to avoid it this time, Chen Yichen did not think about exposing it.

The reason is very simple. Today, it was confirmed that the cheating of the Duke of Cheng Guofu’s private school must be made clear, and this matter has nothing to do with him.

Otherwise, the rumors of fraud in the imperial examination will always be with me!

"Chen Yichen, don't bully people too much. Do you really think I dare not talk to you?"

Xu Donghai was also a little angry at the moment when facing Chen Yichen's aggressiveness.

After all, he is also the nephew of Xu Qi, the Minister of War in Nanjing. He may be timid when facing Duke Cheng's legitimate son, while Chen Yichen is just a maid who is in the genealogy. He wants to suppress him and dare not speak, but he is almost intrigued.

And so many candidates are watching. If Xu Donghai is cowardly today, how can he stay in Yingtian Wentian in the future? Do you still want the name of a child prodigy?

"It's too much to deceive others?"

Chen Yichen sneered and continued to reply: "Xu Donghai, you have done something like slandering me more than once, have you?"

"I didn't bother with you before, but today you alluded to the invigilator that it has exceeded the limit of verbal disputes. So I pointed it out bluntly, is this also called bullying you?"

"If this is also called being too bullied, then what if I bully you? In terms of achievements, literary talent, poetry, which one can compare to me?"

Chen Yichen threw out one sentence and showed confidence and momentum, which made many candidates on the scene feel the pressure.

It is worthy of being the winner of the Winter Solstice Poetry Festival, with two consecutive cases and overwhelming men of talented people. It is really overwhelming!

Xu Donghai was shocked by Chen Yichen's momentum at the first time. When he reacted, he planned to refute, but found that he had no idea what to say.

Just as Chen Yichen said, the imperial examination achievements, the literary talent shown, and the famous poetry are inferior to the other party.

In the past, Chen Yichen didn’t take these things and it would be fine if he showed off his singularity in front of him. If he really used it to bully it, it seemed that it was irrefutable.

Looking at Xu Donghai and opening his mouth, unable to say a word for response for a long time, Chen Yichen finally left only a contemptuous look, and then returned to Xu Jin card.

Today I am here to take the exam for the scholar, not a joke with this young boy.

"Is this the power of the case leader? I really didn't feel Chen Yichen was so imposing before."

"Actually, Xu Donghai is also a famous prodigy at a young age. However, what he met Chen Yichen, how could he compare with him?"

"Xu Donghai really got kicked to the iron plate. The clan of the Duke of Chengguo's mansion was arrested for fraud. Chen Yichen has no evidence yet to show that he was involved. It's too early to question the case."

"Yes, at least you have to check it out."

Maybe Chen Yichen was too conspicuous and calm, and the sound of attack that had already started was now halting.

After all, even an official prodigy like Xu Donghai was so overwhelmed by Chen Yichen that he couldn't speak. Who is he considered? How could he compare with him?

After the examination square was quiet, the invigilator looked at Chen Yichen, and the suspicion in his eyes was much less, but there was a hint of recognition.

With his years of experience in invigilating the exam, he can face what Chen Yichen is as calm as he is, either his psychological quality is so strong that he is not surprised by everything, or he is afraid of being questioned.

No matter which one it is, it shows that this young man is unusual and a talented person.

After a lot of noise, the body search was still ongoing. This time it was Zhu Qingyu, who was standing in front of Shen Yichen.

At this time, Zhu Qingyu's face was bloodless, and he grabbed the test basket tightly in his hand, and he didn't want to let go. His actions almost made it clear that everyone was cheating.

Sure enough, when the inspector seized the test basket from Zhu Qingyu, he found bamboo strips with characters carved.

At the same time, Zhu Qingyu's exposure means that among the four people in the trial of the Duke of Chengguo's mansion, three of them have been confirmed to be cheated, leaving only Chen Yichen, which is still to be searched for inspection.

"The cheating of the Duke Chenggong Mansion's private school is proven. It seems that Chen Yichen is difficult to avoid it."

"I didn't really believe that Chen Yichen would cheat, but now this situation really makes people feel suspicious."

"It depends on whether there is any problem with Chen Yichen's basketball test. If the head of the case is cheated, a major case may occur."

"Yes, if the capital of the case is down, he will not be able to suppress Duke Cheng."

Now the candidates in the college entrance examination have almost set their sights on Chen Yichen. If he is also found to have problems in the basketball exam, the impact may be greater than that of the previous students of the Duke of Chengguo’s Mansion.

After all, Shen Yichen dares not say that he is famous all over the world. At least he is no problem with being famous in Yingtian Mansion. He has won two consecutive cases, and there are countless officials involved.

Zhu Yong, Duke Chengguo, is now a high-ranking minister, but it does not mean that he has the ability to control the government. Since the abolition of the prime minister, there has been no legal powerful minister who covers the sky with one hand.

At that time, even Duke Cheng Guozhu Yong himself would probably have to be involved in this imperial examination scandal.

Chen Yichen faced everyone's eyes and walked to the military service for inspection. He was extremely open-minded and was not afraid of any body search.

Taking off his clothes, the military servicemen also took out the items in the exam basket one by one, focusing on checking the woven bamboo strips to see if there was anything unusual.

Even in order to ensure that no handles are left, the outer curtain invigilator took the initiative to come forward to check Chen Yichen's items together. Unlike the previous Zhu clan relatives, Chen Yichen's bamboo strips were the same color. , there is no looseness.

I carefully verified the light again and saw no carved font on any bamboo strip.

As for other aspects, Chen Yichen is more normal, and the suspicion of fraud can be basically ruled out.

Since the problem cannot be found, it will naturally be allowed to pass. The examiner of the outer curtain nodded and signaled that Chen Yichen could put on his clothes to show that he was innocent.

This situation was beyond the expectations of many people at the scene. After all, three people have been found in the private school of Duke Cheng’s Mansion. According to inertial thinking, Chen Yichen’s possibility of fraud is very high.

Facts have proved that Chen Yichen did not participate in it, and the achievements he achieved depended on his own talent and knowledge.

"Chen Yichen is fine. Did the Chengguo Duke's House School cheat and leak him?"

"Normal, have you forgotten that Chen Yichen is a maid who is in the genealogy? Seriously, he is not considered a relative of the Zhu clan."

"It seems that Chen Yichen is really talented and knowledgeable. So today's college entrance examination, will the first person in Yingtian Mansion who is one of the three yuan in small and medium-sized enterprises appear?"

As the candidates were discussing the exam, Chen Yichen walked across the dragon gate with the exam basket and walked into the Xiajiang examination shed. He was preparing to go to Duzhi Building to meet with Sun Tixue, the chief examiner of the college examination today.

But when Chen Yichen stepped into the examination room, a military officer stood in front of him and said, "Young Master Chen, please wait for a moment."

"Why?"

Chen Yichen's expression was a little serious. No matter how noisy the candidates outside clamored, it would not have much impact on him.

Now in military service, he doubted whether the investigation and punishment of fraud involved himself. If this affects the normal progress of the hospital examination, the consequences would be serious.

"The examiner, Lord Sun, has an order to ask Mr. Chen to wait for Longmen and take the exam."

Take the exam?

When Chen Yichen suddenly heard this strange noun, he had some doubts in his mind, but he quickly realized it.

The so-called sitting test in the hall is like its name, which means bringing the candidates to the lobby and sitting in the exam, which is equivalent to putting them under the examiner's nose.

The incident was rumored to be a fraud in the imperial examination of the Duke of Chengguo Mansion, and almost everyone knew about Yingtian Mansion. In addition, the search before the exam, three of the four people who passed the trial were found to be cheated. , the only one who is left to be innocent.

However, this level of "innocence" is obviously not enough to block the world's wide mouths.

According to the traditional unspoken rules of the imperial examination, Chen Yichen, as the head of the palace, is likely to win the title of a scholar in the college entrance examination. Even if the article is well written, the probability of the head of the case is much higher than that of other candidates.

Even the influence brought by the three-way small and medium-sized enterprises will inevitably push the speculation on fraud in the imperial examination to a peak again.

How to avoid leaving a message to others?

The best way is to take the exam, so that Chen Yichen can answer the questions in front of the examiner, which will completely eliminate the possibility of fraud.

At the same time, there is another advantage in taking the exam, that is, you have the opportunity to take the exam in the same class. After all, you hand in the paper directly to the examiner, so it is difficult for him not to fall in love with him in advance.

Of course, there are also disadvantages, just like taking exams in later generations, where the invigilator sits in front of you and watches and writes. Even if you don’t have the idea of ​​cheating, the psychological pressure of being stared at will be unnatural.

Therefore, those who can write good articles by taking the exam are those with real talents and knowledge, and there is no criticism for winning the lieutenant general!

It seems that Sun Tixue also knew about the search, and he was helping me clear my name...

Just as Chen Yichen thought, the fraud of the Duke Cheng’s Mansion outside the door had already reached the ears of several examiners from the inner curtain.

So Sun Ding came up with a way to take the exam to help Chen Yichen get the first and block those remarks.

However, in addition, Sun Ding did this to avoid suspicion. After all, he and Chen Yichen master Lin Zhen are friends, and many people know that. Moreover, Chen Yichen was also cared about at the Winter Solstice Poetry Conference, and those who are interested should arrange it. It's easy to order a story.

The way of taking the exam in the classroom is a killing two birds with one stone, which helped Chen Yichen and himself.

While Shen Yichen was waiting, many candidates followed up with body search and entered the dragon gate, and several people were also left to take the exam.

Among the things Chen Yichen knew were Xu Donghai from Zhaowen Academy, Luo Zheng from Jiangning County, and Qin Xusheng, the leader of Shangyuan County. These people are old rivals and have been through the exams all the way.

There is another person named Meng Fan who has also heard of Chen Yichen.

This person is extraordinary. Strictly speaking, he cannot be regarded as a native of the Ming Dynasty. He is a descendant of the chieftain who surrendered at the Battle of Luchuan in the southwest of Zhengtong in the sixth year. He was placed in Yingtian Prefecture.

But unlike those pure chieftain descendants who were not educated, Meng Fan had the Han surname and was proficient in Sinology. He passed the Tongsheng exam in seven years.

But after all, he is a descendant of the border chieftain, and his aura is always a bit out of place with others, so he has always been alone.
