"Cheating?"
Yu Shinan also looked shocked at this time.
Cheating in the imperial examination is a serious crime.
If the circumstances are serious, even if Yu Shinan is the chief examiner, it will be a big deal.
Mr. Liu, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, actually said that Zhao Chen caught scholars here and cheated.
Is there a trace or...
"Deputy Chief Examination Zhao, what happened?" Yu Shinan looked at Zhao Chen.
Wei Zheng and others also woke up at this moment, with a hint of worry on their faces.
"Mr. Yu, Deputy Chief Examiner Zhao insisted on saying that this scholar cheated, and this cheating method was the examiners who bought clothes to keep warm for the scholars." Before Zhao Chen could speak, Lord Liu, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, said first.
Snatch back the clothes from Zhao Chen and hold them in front of Yu Shinan.
"Does Vice Chief Examiner Zhao suspect that we were rushing and providing cheating methods to scholars?" an examiner said angrily.
He is one of the people who went out to the examination room to buy clothes today.
"Deputy Chief Zhao is such a powerful official power, this is obviously a frame-up."
"I wonder if Deputy Chief Zhao, what's wrong with this clothing? Why don't we take it apart carefully and see what is there to cheat on it?"
"Yes, let's take apart, we have a clear conscience. However, Deputy Chief Examination Zhao. If there is no means of cheating here, please ask Deputy Chief Examination Zhao to apologize to us personally and to apologize to the scholars in the examination room."
Several examiners expressed dissatisfaction with Zhao Chen, and even showed a righteous attitude.
They believed it very naturally that Zhao Chen could not find anything.
Because even they didn't know at first that there were such magical cheating methods.
A person who can come up with such a method is simply a genius.
Yu Shinan took the clothes handed over by Lord Liu, and the examiners next to him came over and were looking for something on the clothes carefully.
But after searching for a quarter of an hour, no abnormalities were found.
"Everyone, it's already late at night, let's go back and rest first. Deputy Chief Examination is the first time that Deputy Chief Examination is participating in the autumn examination. I lack experience. I am waiting for Zhao Chen to apologize to you." Yu Shinan stood up and bowed to the examiners and said.
Yu Shinan is like this, so he doesn't want this to cause too much trouble.
This year's autumn examination, the emperor personally instructed him to end it safely.
Now that such a mess has occurred, the key is that they have not found any evidence.
If it gets bigger, no one can explain to the emperor.
But obviously several examiners were unwilling to do so, so they were waiting to completely slander Zhao Chen this time.
How could I miss such a good opportunity?
"This is not possible. Lord Yu, this matter is of great importance and cannot be solved by your apology. The official must report to Your Majesty and let Your Majesty make a decision in person." Lord Liu said coldly, not giving Yu Shinan face at all.
.
Yu Shinan also understood at this moment that these people were clearly going to fight Zhao Chenyu to death.
Moreover, there may be something wrong with this clothing.
But, where is the problem?
"Zhao Chen, what did you see just now?" Wei Zheng walked to Zhao Chen and asked in a low voice.
Wei Zheng wanted to help Zhao Chen.
But in this situation, Wei Zheng didn't know how to start.
"Deputy Chief Tester Zhao, what else do you have to say?" Lord Liu looked at Zhao Chen, and a hint of joking flashed in his eyes.
He was wondering whether Zhao Chen could not understand why the handwriting on the clothes disappeared so quickly.
"Whatever you want me to say is just some tricks to play with. Do you even think of it as a treasure?" Zhao Chen said casually, taking the clothes from Yu Shinan.
"Do you think that if you leave handwriting on this clothing with cuttlefish juice, you can hide the truth?" Zhao Chen took the clothing and walked to a candlelight.
Place the corners of the clothes on the candlelight and roast them.
"Zhao Chen wants to destroy the evidence, stop him." Lord Liu was stunned at that time.
Only then did he realize that Zhao Chen actually knew the wonderful use of this cuttlefish sauce.
Then what they did was completely controlled by Zhao Chen?
Lord Liu no longer cared about how Zhao Chen knew this method at this moment. The most important thing at the moment was to stop Zhao Chen.
Otherwise, after the handwriting on the clothes really appears, they will be completely finished.
Several other examiners who participated in buying clothes were also full of panic at this moment.
Without any care, several people rushed towards Zhao Chen.
Before the handwriting on the clothes appears, stop Zhao Chen.
But I don't want to...
"Get back!"
Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu suddenly jumped out from nowhere.
The two kicked one by one and kicked the two officials who rushed towards Zhao Chen to the ground.
The remaining three examiners were so nervous that they were not brave enough to move forward.
What scared them even more was that Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu were holding more than a dozen pieces of clothes they bought from outside today.
It seems that nothing has been missed.
"Mr. Liu, you want to see what this is for yourself?" Zhao Chen took the roasted clothes and held them in front of Mr. Liu.
At one corner of the clothes, there are dense black ink writing.
"This...this...this is not my business, I don't know anything." Lord Liu's expression changed drastically, and he struggled to say a few words.
"Let me see!" Yu Shinan took the clothes and saw the cheating handwriting neatly printed on it.
At that time, his beard and hair were all open and he shouted, "You can wait until your heart is punished."
The clothes smacked on Lord Liu's face.
All the other examiners behind him were disgusted.
"Mr. Yu, the officials of the lower ranks are not aware of this matter." Mr. Liu quickly defended Yu Shinan.
Anyway, he did not personally participate in this matter from beginning to end.
Even if Yu Shinan suspected it, he could not be blamed.
"You don't have the final say whether you know or not. I looked at it and all the answers were exactly the same."
"In other words, the purpose of you is not this imperial examination, but us examiners, right?" Zhao Chen said with a smile, looking at Lord Liu in front of him with a joking look.
"What?" Wei Zheng's face turned dark when he heard this.
It turns out that these people cheated, they were all the examiners here.
Wei Zheng even realized in an instant that this was the method of the aristocratic family.
In order to get rid of Zhao Chen, he even did not hesitate to take care of some of his officials.
This is really a big deal!
"Okay, very good. Everyone comes with me to meet His Majesty. The examination room is closed and no one is allowed to enter and exit." Yu Shinan's face darkened and he shouted coldly.
...
Li Shimin sat in the backyard lobby, and he was not asleep at this moment.
Zhao Chen told him that he would not go outside, just wait here.
Li Shimin was also full of doubts at this moment.
"Auxiliary, what are you talking about that boy Zhao Chen selling in the gourd? He knew someone cheated, but he would just arrest him directly. He insisted that I wait here." Li Shimin was a little confused and looked at him.
Changsun Wuji next to him.
Changsun Wuji had no sleepiness at all.
Cheating in the imperial examination is a serious crime.
In order to get rid of Zhao Chen, aren’t you afraid of implicating him?
Or are they really fearless?
