The matter of marking the papers is naturally the job of Master Wei and others. After that, Sun Sichao will participate in the rankings.

After you have obtained a juren, you must also encapsulate, copy and check the test papers. These are one of the effective means to prevent cheating.

If someone reports others' fraud, the test paper will be retrieved again for investigation and evidence collection.

In fact, when it comes to cheating, leaking questions is often the safest way. A little smarter can also leak them without knowing them, and there is no need to pass them on small notes. A number can reveal the question. Generally, the person who is leaked will keep it strictly confidential, and such a fraud will happen simply.

Therefore, those who set questions will be strictly monitored and monitored after they set questions. If there is really fraud, the person will inevitably fall into the ground.

After the list of juren in various places in the capital is released, they will be sent to the Beijing Ministry of Rites to report and register. There are also some procedures to investigate whether there is fraud in various places. The method is simple, which is to randomly check the list and debug the papers to be reviewed in Beijing. If you find that there are any scheming in the test papers, things will be very serious.

The cost of fraud is too great. Therefore, there must be fraud in the imperial examinations of all dynasties, but they will be strictly controlled within a small range and cannot affect fairness and justice on a large scale. The wisdom of the ruler is here to know what is an important matter to ensure the basic stability of the country and to ensure the basic channels for the people to rise.

Major cases of imperial examination fraud in all dynasties will always occur once or twice in hundreds of years, and the consequences will inevitably be extremely serious.

Early in the morning that day, a group of people suddenly ran over outside the door, there were as many as a hundred people as idle on the street, half-grown boys, and even beggars on the roadside.

Xu Jie was still in a daze on the bed, and he heard the gongs and drums outside the door, and there were firecrackers.

Xu Kang at the door rushed to Xu Jie's door and shouted: "Young Master, it's amazing!!!"

Xu Jie sat up and frowned and asked, "Why is it so amazing?"

"Duke Jie Yuan! Top ranking on the list. Xu Jie and Xu Wenyuan, Qingshan Xu, there are 100 people who have reported the good news." Xu Kang shouted very excitedly.

Xu Jie was not so excited, but just asked again: "Are you going to release the results today?"

Xu Kang did not answer this sentence, but said, "Young Master, get up quickly, it's very lively outside the door."

Xu Jie turned over and Yun Xiaolian walked in with a wooden basin. Perhaps Xu Jie was the last one to get up in this house, and he was lazy, that's it.

Yang Sanpang also sat at the door, laughing happily at the lively crowd, and also said to himself: "Ershou, this scholar will become Master Jie Yuan in the future."

Jie Yuan is the first place in the juren. Ershu replied: "If you don't practice well, you should take the Jinshi exam to become an official. In the future, he will feel better if he has any pain in his literary soreness."

Not long after Xu Jie arrived at the door, looking at the people who reported the good news, Xu Jie understood and ordered Yun Shuhuan to turn around and prepare silver and copper coins.

These gongs, drums, firecrackers, and those who come to report good news are just waiting for Duke Jie Yuan to reward money. They cannot get up early without profit. This is beneficial to report good news.

Give more gongs and drums, and more firecrackers. Others accompanying each other have more or less. As long as they are present, there are only a few copper coins. Even beggars will jingle in the bowl.

This is all the joy.

People in the house also come to congratulate Xu Jie, the mother and daughter of the Wu family, Xu Hu, and even Master Zhong.

After some busyness, this morning has passed.

A post from the county school asked Xu Jie to attend the Lu Ming Banquet tomorrow night. After the big exam, there must be a big banquet and a wish to thank the teacher.

The deer sings, the deer sings, and eats wild apples. It comes from the Book of Songs and Cao Cao's "Short Songs" and this sentence is also found in later generations. There were also unparalleled national scholars, named "Yuyou", whose surname is Tu.

Xu Jie also arranged for Xu Hu to go back to Qingshan County to report the good news. However, Xu Hu's report the good news was not as fast as others. Before Xu Hu arrived home, there were already people who reported the good news to come to Xujia Town first. Naturally, the challenge was a good start, and there were some rewards. Xu Zhong was more generous than Xu Jie, and the rewards were all made of silver, not copper coins.

The Ministry of Rites in the capital, as well as the Censorate, went straight to the county magistrate's office with official documents. Then he transferred the examination papers to the capital for investigation, and the first thing he had to do was Xu Wenyuan, Duke Jie Yuan. I don't know if it was arranged by Xie Fang.

Xie Fang did not think about how to help Xu Jie get a Jinshi through the back door. Instead, he was the first to check Xu Jie's test paper, which was a bit intriguing. Sun Sichao also felt confused and strange when he saw this official document.

When Xu Jie was able to win the first name Jie Yuan, he naturally had a handwritten name from Sun Sichao's selfishness and also supported by Master Wei, so Xu Jie was ranked first in the first Jie Yuan in this case. Fortunately, Xu Jie himself was also successful and sent the first test paper to the capital for investigation. Sun Sichao was not afraid of any problems and omissions.

If there is really something dirty, it is not that simple. Sun Sichao must be as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, thinking about how to quickly forge a test paper, how to cover up this matter, how to entertain the capital's tolerance first, and delay the time.

People are always smart. I think that when I come to other counties, this kind of thing should still happen, only a few. Thousand taels, tens of thousands of taels, and hundreds of thousands of taels. Money can always make the devil push the mill. Such things cannot be really eliminated.

Sun Sichao naturally had no guilt at all. He gave him the test papers to whoever he wanted. After three or five copies, the police rushed back and handed over the job. Perhaps the few policemen who walked this trip to Dajiang would curse and curse on the way. Sun Sichao was so happy that they did not necessarily want to see these test papers. These soldiers were willing to see Sun Sichao trying every means to delay time, so that he could get some benefits and make a lot of money.

Those who attended the Luming Banquet were newly promoted scholars, scholars from the county school, officials from the government office, and officials from the county offices in various places.

The atmosphere was full of joy, and the juren thanked many gentlemen for their teachings. Many gentlemen encouraged them to continue their efforts and wished them to go to high school in spring.

There is no need to take any poetry and articles during the meal, just drinking, listening to music and entertainment. The official banquet is rare to be so relaxed.

Xu Jie also worshiped many gentlemen in courtesy and manners, especially thanked Master Wei for his kindness and teachings. Master Wei really taught Xu Jie many useful things and would take the Spring Examination exam soon, so these things naturally benefited Xu Jie a lot.

After the Lu Ming Banquet, Xu Jie visited some people and was also visited by some people. Then he had a few banquets. After several days, he returned to the green mountains and was waiting for Xu Jie to go back to celebrate.

After the juren, Xujia Town no longer needed to pay taxes, and the grain produced in the fields no longer needed to be paid to the county government. If such benefits were placed a few years ago, the entire town would have been happy to celebrate. Now, it is not much of a benefit.

However, in Xujia Town, the population of Xu's surname will increase rapidly. There are hundreds of miles nearby, but I don't know how many Xu's surnames are going to Xujia Town to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. Generally speaking, they will not be rejected. This is the reason for the prosperity of the family.

The importance of surnames to Chinese people is self-evident. It is natural for people with the same surname to join in to keep warm.

The old lady was very happy and was named first, which allowed her to see the hope of Xu Jie's success in the Jinshi. It was as if Xu Jie's success in the Jinshi was not difficult.

Visits from all over the place, gifts from neighboring villages and towns, local geniuses and sects, and sects in the martial arts world, also make this Xujia Town very lively.

Xu Jie accompanied the old lady to have lunch, but she was also uneasy. She frequently put down her chopsticks to meet the guests. After hearing three or five words of congratulations and titles on the list, she accepted some gifts and turned to go for dinner.

Xu Zhong stopped eating and was entertaining all the people who arrived. He kept asking the kitchen to prepare wine and banquets, and was very busy.

When Xu Jie was about to have dinner, Yun Shuhuan hurried into the inner courtyard again.

Xu Jie's face darkened and he said, "Boy Yun, go out and reply, and say that I will go out to see the guests after I finish eating."

Yun Shuhuan did not do as he did, but said, "Young Master, Xie Zhongcheng from the capital has sent someone. He also brought a letter, and I asked the man to pass the letter to me to the young master, but he refused and insisted on the young master to personally."

Xu Jie stood up when he heard this. He thought that Xie Fang was sending someone to come to celebrate, but when he thought of this, he had to put down his chopsticks and go out.

The person who sent the letter in the hall recognized Xu Jie and went forward to congratulate him first, and then took out the letter.

Xu Jie took it apart and frowned.

The content of the letter: If you see the letter, Wen Yuan is safe and good. September 18th, the Dajiang exam was transferred to the Censorate. There is a case in which Wen Yuan was in the first case. I intend to present the saint Yan and I ordered me to summon you to the capital. The saint Chen must not be negligent. The report should be reported immediately. The military system should be done more and more. The final accounts should be prepared. There should be detailed discussions. Do not lack opportunities. This is the thought of the sacred man. I will be careful. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The sacred man will be given a good sentence. The 21st of September, Xie Fang will be given a good sentence.

In ancient times, including Xu Jie's own test papers, there were actually no punctuation marks. The matter of breaking sentences depends entirely on the experience of those who read books and letters, or the person who writes letters, for the sake of others' easy reading, often leaves a little blank in the breaking sentences. Xu Jie has long been used to such writings. Even if these words are crowded together, it is normal, and Xu Jie can read them clearly and clearly.

Xie Fang transferred Xu Jie's exam to Beijing, and knew that Xu Jie had always been able to talk about what Ce asked about it. He had to look at Xu Jie's exam paper just to see if Xu Jie asked whether it was excellent. If it was excellent, Xie Fang would not help Xu Jie cheat in the imperial examination, but would help Xu Jie show his face in front of the emperor. He also helped Xu Jie prepare for his political future.

A juren's test paper came to the emperor. The emperor wanted to see Xu Jie, ask Xu Jie about military reform, and ask Xu Jie about the budget and final accounts of the imperial court. Xie Fang repeatedly reminded Xu Jie to prepare more, have a draft, and be cautious.

Xu Jie didn't even know that his test paper was sent to the capital. He only realized that Xie Fang had such good intentions behind him, and he felt warm in his heart.

Xie Fang's arrangements and actions are both reasonable and reasonable, and can really help Xu Jie. It is still too hard to be really good at taking Jiang. I don't know how clever the means of cheating in exams are.

"Boy Yun, please come and welcome me. I will pack my luggage and set off to Beijing tomorrow." Xu Jie ordered and returned to the inner courtyard.

Yun Shuhuan was a little surprised. He thought he would have to stay at home for a few more days, but he didn't expect to set out to Beijing tomorrow.

However, Xu Jie entered the inner courtyard and sat down to have dinner with the old lady. He said, "Grandma, grandson is going to set out into the capital tomorrow. Grandma should take care of her and she will definitely be able to stay in the grandson's list."

When the old lady heard this, she was happy and sad, and asked, "Let's leave tomorrow? I'm a little anxious."

Xu Jieyang took the letter in his hand and said with a smile: "I have a letter from the capital. His Majesty the Emperor wants to summon his grandson, so he left so early."

The old lady was stunned when she heard this: "Your Majesty the Emperor? The Emperor's Saint?"

Xu Jie nodded and said, "Yes, the emperor, the emperor wants to see his grandson."

The old lady seemed to think she had heard it wrong, but she was overjoyed at this moment, and her face was full of joy: "Jie'er is promising, and His Majesty the Emperor has seen it. He is promising, and he will become a high-ranking official in the future. I have been a child and I have been promising for more than ten years. I finally have promising. Good, very good. Your grandfather, father and uncle should also smile in the dark. If grandma dies, she will be in peace."

Xu Jie said these words of show-off were naturally for the happiness of the old man. When he heard the old man say he died, he hurriedly said: "Grandma must take care of her. She is still watching her grandson and having a wife and have children. You can't say these unlucky words."

The old lady waved her hands and smiled, "If you don't say bad things, Jie'er wants to marry and have a child, and grandma wants to meet her."

While talking, the old lady's hands were still stroking Xu Jie's body, calling Xu Jie to have dinner.

The hasty entry into Beijing is still stirring up the storm.

Something big happened in the capital.

Xie Fang, the Censorate, suddenly held the imperial edict in his hand and brought a response of officials of all sizes into the Privy Council.

Li Qiming was a little surprised at Xie Fang who came suddenly and received Xie Fang in the lobby of the Privy Council.

Seeing Xie Fang bringing so many people to the door, Li Qiming frowned and asked, "Xie Zhongcheng suddenly visited, what's the matter?"

Xie Fang also knew that Li Qiming saw the imperial edict in his hand, so he did not read it. He just put the imperial edict in front of Li Qiming's case, then bowed and said, "Li Shumi is forgiven. He is really an emperor's servant. He had no choice but to mobilize the troops to disturb him. He also asked Li Shumi to look at the imperial edict. It was really a heavy task for the subordinate to bring so many people to visit. He also asked Li Shumi to take care of it."

The content of the imperial edict is very simple, which is to ask Xie Fang to go to the Privy Council to check the accounts and books for the past ten years. The Privy Council is in charge of the imperial guards in the world, and the annual food and wages for the exchange are astronomical figures.

When Li Qiming saw the content of the imperial edict, he felt nervous. He was not worried about the accounts, but he couldn't help but think a lot about the emperor's motivation for doing so.

"Since the imperial edict is here, Xie Zhongcheng will do it himself. If you need to cooperate with the yamen, please give instructions to the officials in the yamen. I still have official duties, so I will not accompany you." After saying that, Li Qiming put down the imperial edict, waved his sleeves lightly, and walked out of the yamen.

Not long after, seven or eight people gathered in Li Qiming's mansion, and even King Xia Han of Guangyang arrived.

Li Qiming spoke to everyone about what happened in the Privy Council today.

Then he heard a man named Ye say with a nervous look on his face: "Sir Li, what should I do? Xie Fang must be determined to go against us. If the reason is found in the account book, how can I afford it?"

Li Qiming looked at the man after hearing this, and said, "Look at your promising prospects. What problems can be caused by the account book? Even if the problem is found, the fire will not burn you. There are so many officials below, who can't be charged with the crime? Just find out the problem and change it. What else can Xie Fang do if he misses the excuse? I am looking for you to discuss. What is worried about is not the matter of the accounts, but why did Your Majesty suddenly ask Xie Fang to check the accounts at this time? Have you ever thought about the reason?"

When the man named Ye heard Li Qiming's words, he relaxed and replied: "Li Shumi, it is normal for the Censorate to be the supervisor. In previous years, the Censorate always had to go through the motions. The officials thought that as long as Xie Fang could not control us, it would be impossible."

Li Qiming glanced at him again and scolded: "Ye Zhang, you are really stupid and stupid. Can this year be compared with previous years? Recently, Your Majesty's thoughts have become more and more unpredictable, and there must be problems. Just like you are like you, you will not know how to die in the future."

Ye Zhang was a third-rank Privy Councilor under Li Qiming, who is the civil servant in the Privy Council. This civil servant was also a noble and military general, and he didn't know how to operate it as a civil servant. He was mainly responsible for all the official documents in the Privy Councilor's yamen, and also had some of the power to sign and authorize.

Ye Zhang still didn't understand Li Qiming's scolding. There was a word called political sense, and Li Qiming was extremely sensitive. Ye Zhang was really a thousand miles away.

There was another keen person, Xia Han, who was beside him. After thinking for a while, he said nervously: "Uncle, Father... Father will never take his uncle..."

Xia Han was not clear about it, but Ye Zhang was shocked. Li Qiming was also shocked.

The seven or eight people present suddenly stopped talking, but looked at each other countless times.

Li Qiming had already gotten up and paced left and right, paced for a long time, suddenly stopped, nodded and said, "Your Majesty... Maybe you really want to take action against me."

On the spot, there was an uproar. Who is Li Qiming? The queen's brother, the uncle of King Xia Han of Guangyang, was also the most meritorious minister of the war that year. The emperor wanted to attack Li Qiming? No matter how he heard this, he felt that it was untrue.

Xia Han quickly overturned his previous words, shook his head and replied, "Uncle, don't think about it randomly, this should not be the case."

Xia Han was a little panicked. It was Li Qiming who ascended the throne. How could Li Qiming have something to happen? Xia Han turned his head and thought, but he felt that he could not scare himself. OK, how could the old emperor deal with the merits of the court?

Unexpectedly, Li Qiming said again: "Nine out of ten! We can't sit still and wait for death, so we should make plans early."

Xia Han couldn't imagine this, but said again: "Uncle, don't scare himself."

Li Qiming suddenly waved his hand and said, "Prince, don't be surprised. Even so, my uncle has a solution."

Li Qiming was very confident. He had been in power for decades, hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, and all the noble generals rely on Li Qiming to advance step by step. How could Li Qiming be the one who can control it?
