The old gentleman was wearing ragged clothes and was thin, with a dark complexion. It was obvious that he had not rested for several days.
He looked at Sun Hao kneeling in the hall, with strong hatred in his eyes.
"Sir, I am a teacher in Linyuan Town. Seven days ago, Sun Hao's boy came to me and asked me to help with some questions. I met him but didn't take it seriously. I thought he was a friend of some student, and he
He also promised a reward and I would give him the answer two days later, but I didn’t want to..."
The old gentleman gritted his teeth, still a little scared of the scene at that time.
"But I didn't expect him to take out a knife and want to kill me. Fortunately, he was caught by my students, and the old man escaped. After several twists and turns, he found out his name, and then he came to report to the official and begged the county boss to severely punish the murderer.
!”
"Ho!"
This Sun Hao is really full of crimes and commits all kinds of evil. He looks human, but in his heart he is an out-and-out devil.
"Framing a classmate, leaking test questions, and hiring a murderer to kill someone is enough to sentence you to death!"
Lin Yusheng decided to convict, but Sun Hao still wanted to denounce it. Mr. Wei and Dean Qiu walked in from behind, and what he wanted to say was blocked in his mouth.
"Send people to the surrounding counties to check whether there are any dead gentlemen."
Mr. Wei ignored Lin Yusheng's excitement and ordered in a deep voice.
Now that he has seen Sun Hao's virtue clearly, he is afraid that more than two people have been killed.
"yes."
When Sun Hao saw that the situation was over and all the crimes he had committed were confessed, he collapsed on the ground, his face ashen.
He is finished!
Sun Hao was taken to the prison, and the surrounding students dispersed. Shen Yanqing and Xu Ziwen were about to leave, but Mr. Wei stayed behind.
There is one more important thing.
"These are the test questions found in the bookstore. Please review them."
Mr. Wei came, and Lin Yusheng was mostly convinced that the most serious thing about this incident was not the frame-up, but the leak of the test questions.
Autumn is approaching, and if the students all know the topic in advance, this will be a big mistake.
Do we want all Yuelin Academy to give up the exam and wait another three years?
No one wants to see such a result.
Mr. Wei took it and after reading the question, his cold face softened. He stroked his beard and handed the paper back to Lin Yusheng.
"This is a question from last year's exam and it will not have any impact on the students."
"That's good, that's good."
Lin Yusheng breathed a sigh of relief as the thorny problem was solved, and Dean Qiu also felt relieved.
Fortunately, Sun Hao's plan failed, otherwise it would have harmed everyone.
Shen Yan knew early in the morning that Sun Hao could not get the real test questions. No one knew whether the questions were real until the test came. He just wanted to take the opportunity to put himself in jail and miss the test.
But Sun Hao forgot about Mr. Wei, saw clearly the fact that he cheated early, and came forward to clear Shen Yan's name.
Once he is convicted of murder, the only thing waiting for him is the death penalty.
Sun family.
Upon hearing the news that Sun Hao was in jail, Sun's mother almost fainted.
"Master, you have to rescue Hao'er!" Sun's mother cried with tears streaming down her face and held on to Sun Yuanbai's sleeve.
Sun Yuanbai's face turned dark, and his hands were trembling with anger.
"This idiot! He couldn't handle anything well, and he even got caught."
In his heart, he hated him for failing to live up to expectations. If he had been left to handle it early in the morning, there would be no such problems.
Now he has to clean up the mess.
"Go and talk to Lin Yusheng and ask him to release Hao'er. He will definitely listen to you." Sun's mother ignited hope in her heart. Lin Yusheng usually sold the Sun family's thin noodles because of his relationship with the prime minister. As long as Sun Yuanbai said
If there is love, he will definitely let Sun Hao go.
"Stupid! Sun Hao was taught bad things by you!"
Sun Yuanbai was so angry that his head was smoking. Lin Yusheng would be profitable if he gave him face. Now the evidence of Sun Hao's murder was conclusive, and Mr. Wei was involved in the case.
Who is Mr. Wei? At that time, he was the imperial tutor, the emperor's master, and even the prime minister was shorter than him.
In this situation, how dare he let Lin Yusheng release Sun Hao.
"Then what should I do? Do you want me to watch Hao'er die?"
Grandma's tears fell again. She felt heartbroken when she thought of her son being beheaded.
"Shut up!"
Sun Yuanbai had a headache from her crying, couldn't he be worried? No matter how stupid Sun Hao was, he was his only son, how could he let it go.
"Go and get all the banknotes from home. I'm going to Fucheng."
He could find someone to take the blame for the murder, but Sun Hao also lost his reputation because of it. The road to the imperial examination was completely blocked. From now on, he could only work anonymously as a shopkeeper in this small town.
Suddenly most of the family's assets were empty. Sun Yuanbao felt a heartache and felt a little resentful of his nephew.
"Brother, after spending so much money to save Hao'er, when will Linglong Pavilion make it back? If you ask me, we'd better capture Madam Jiang from Jinxiu Pavilion. As long as we have a profitable business like fragrant pearl prescriptions, there's no need to worry about making money.
Get your money back?”
Sun Yuanbao's words were correct. Sun Yuanbai didn't want to provoke the Xu family, but the Xu family's younger son harmed his son first, so why should he give face to the Xu family.
"Okay, remember to do it cleanly and don't leave any clues."
"Don't worry, brother, Madam Jiang is a country woman. She doesn't have a close relationship with Xu Zilan. If you catch her, you won't attract any attention."
Sun Yuanbao had already figured out Jiang Miao's background. She was a child bride of a poor student and was probably not valued by her husband's family. When she handed over the fragrant recipe and promised to take her as a concubine, would she take the bait?
"Um."
Jiang Miao sneezed. She didn't know that someone was already plotting against her. She was making instant noodles at the moment.
The provincial examination takes three days, and students have to prepare their own food. Eating is a big problem. Although the weather is getting cooler now, the dry food they bring will still go rancid if left for three days. Many students who are weak cannot last three days.
So she stopped Mrs. Zhang's idea of making steamed buns for Shen Yanqing. They would go rancid within two days, and she was afraid that Shen Yanqing would eat them and ruin his stomach.
Jiang Miao thought of instant noodles, which are a must-have for home and travel. Even if there were no preservatives in ancient times, three days would be more than enough.
Moreover, there are noodles, soup, and the dried meat she made, which kept him in high spirits during the exam and made him feel confident writing.
Jiang Miao put her own hopes into it. No one in the Shen family wanted Shen Yanqing to win the imperial examination more than she did. This was related to her freedom.
county government office,
When the crisis was over, Shen Yanqing and Xu Ziwen followed Dean Qiu and Mr. Wei out of the Yamen. Mr. Wei patted him on the shoulder before leaving.
"Take the exam well!"
Dean Qiu also looked pleased, and Shen Yanqing nodded slightly, knowing in his heart what Mr. Wei meant by wanting to take the exam for him.
Even if there is no mention of apprenticeship, he will go all out.
