"Let's go to Xiamen." Ding Yunyi, who was waiting impatiently for the imperial court to impeach Zhang Kentang and Zhang Kentang to impeach him, stood up and said... Several guests, please come in. Yes.
Whether you want to eat or stay in a hotel, Ding Yunyi and the others have everything ready here. We have good horse materials, and I guarantee that we will not treat our guests badly."
Not far into Xiamen City, a waiter in an inn greeted Ding Yunyi and his party enthusiastically. Ding Yunyi saw that this inn was quite popular and full of customers, so the service must be good. He turned around and said to Duan San'er: "Duan San'er
Ah, just stay here. Tell the innkeeper to take good care of the horses, and prepare a table of food first. It doesn't have to be luxurious, just be full."
The shopkeeper said in a long voice: "Okay. Guests, please come in. The shopkeeper, Chapter 456: Prison Visit, has a distinguished guest coming."
Ding Yunyi came in and saw that the business of the inn was really good. It was almost full. Ding Yunyi was very happy when he saw such a prosperous business scene. He was led to a seat by the waiter and sat down. Duan Saner and others also settled their horses and came back.
Already.
It is said that restaurants and teahouses are information distribution centers, and Ding Yunyi also hopes to hear the voices of some people here, so Ding Yunyi's "incognito private visit" is not in vain. It would be great if the lawsuit can be ended by the way. In this regard, Ding Yunyi is great
interested in.
As expected, the people lived up to Ding Yunyi's expectations. As soon as the food was served, Ding Yunyi's attention was drawn as he approached the table.
"Who's miserable? It's Song Xicheng who's miserable. He went from the third place to the worst. He was also imprisoned. No one can endure it. Not to mention Song Xicheng, if it were me, there would be a big fuss."
"That's it. How could Yuan Guangyi do this as a student and a thrifty student? But I heard that Mr. Yuan couldn't make the decision in this matter. Didn't he say that Mr. Yuan went to Zhang Fushuai to argue with him at that time? He was livid.
They came back with expressions on their faces. What did they say? How can we know?"
While Ding Yunyi was eating, he heard someone nearby mentioning Zhang Kentang. He couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and listen carefully. Chapter 456: Visiting the prisoner was wondering, what happened? They said it was quite serious. Why didn't he know?
Woolen cloth.
Duan San'er is a discerning person. He immediately saw that the adults were very interested in this matter, and pretended to be curious and asked: "Sir, what are you talking about? We are merchants from other places. We are free.
I'm bored, so I should listen to the book, it seems very interesting."
The person sitting next to him smiled and said: "Interesting, it's extremely ridiculous. In the many years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, have you ever heard of candidates storming the Gongyuan and beating the examiners? No."
Ding Yunyi was startled, what kind of thing is this?
Duan San'er shook his head and said: "This is really strange. The little greedy man has been hooked, and I hope some masters will talk about it."
The person sitting next to me laughed and said, "I'm just going to tell you, you can just treat it as a joke."
This incident in Fujian happened after the Autumn War last year. There was an uproar in Xiamen City, and the city was full of turmoil. The person who took the lead in the trouble was Song Xicheng's father. Song Xicheng's family had some property, but none of his ancestors had been an official for several generations. Song Xicheng's father
I wanted my son to change his family, but Song Xicheng was also very successful. He was very good at reading and traveled around the world. He was quite famous.
Song Xicheng's father wanted to realize his dream of changing his family in his son. Although his son was very ambitious and confident in the imperial examination, his father was not confident and thought that his son was still a little short of it. It was not very safe to be promoted to Jieyuan, so he spent a lot of money everywhere.
He relied on his connections to find ways to smooth things over for him. Of course, Song Xicheng, who was doing all this, had no idea at all.
It's a pity that Song Xicheng's father thought wrong. The governor of Fujian, Zhang Kentang, was very incorruptible, and he was also very strict with his subordinates on this point. So Song's father either didn't find the right way to spend his money, or he couldn't spend it.
After all the trouble, I encountered an unscrupulous businessman - a dealer who resold fake test questions. He spent a lot of money to buy the fake test questions and forced the children to prepare according to the scope of the fake test questions. The consequences can be imagined.
On the day the results were released, Song Xicheng saw that he was ranked third. Although he was not satisfied, he didn't say anything. After all, this was a provincial examination, and he still had a chance to get a good ranking in the general examination.
It's a pity that he was willing, but his father quit. The Jie Yuan in the original dream became the third one. Who did it? He went straight to the examiner Yuan Guangyi to settle the account. Who let the person who resold the fake examination questions say that he was Yuan Guangyi?
Where's my brother-in-law.
No matter which dynasty, when the results are released, some are always happy and some are sad. Of course, some people don't look for the reasons within themselves. They either complain that the questions are too biased or suspect that someone has cheated. Father Song's making such a fuss is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.
Plus a hair dryer.
Yuan Guangyi was dealing with some trivial matters in the Gongyuan. When he heard the commotion outside, he came out to see what was going on. When he came out, he saw that all the cards in the Gongyuan had been smashed. The leader was none other than Father Song.
This Father Song is really powerful. He pointed at Yuan Guangyi and scolded him. He scolded Yuan Guangyi, and it was simply a slander. The pent-up anger of those scholars who had been influenced by scriptures and received the training of poetry and etiquette was completely aroused.
One person took action, and a second one followed him. If not for the fact that Governor Zhang Kentang arrived with troops and dispersed the candidates, Yuan Guangyi would have been killed and eaten by the candidates.
Afterwards, Zhang Kentang inquired about the matter and after finding out the truth, Song Xicheng was arrested and punished. Song Xicheng refused to accept it and once again made trouble to avenge his father. Later, neither Song Xicheng nor the father ran away. Song Xicheng was not only expelled from the third place but also removed from the list.
, and even accompanied my father to go to jail... Duan San asked the store owner to prepare a few guest rooms. I was very tired from walking all the way, and the store owner wants to rest."
Duan Saner immediately went to make arrangements. When he followed the mayor into the guest room, he said: "I have found out that Song Xicheng is being held in Xiamen Prison. Does the shopkeeper want to go and have a look?"
Ding Yunyi smiled and said to Duan San'er: "Duan San, okay. It's right to try to figure out what the shopkeeper is thinking. Then go to the prison to see Song Xicheng first, and then go to Yuan Guangyi's place to visit."
Prison visits are also a science. When Ding Yunyi and Duan Saner came to the Xiamen Prison and told the prison boss that they wanted to see Song Xicheng, they were kicked out by the prison boss before they could finish their words.
"I really agree with what I said. The king of hell is easy to meet, but the kid is difficult to deal with." Ding Yunyi shook his head and said to Duan San'er: "Go in and give the prison boss some money, otherwise we want to see Song Xicheng. There is probably no chance."
Duan San'er nodded in agreement and said to himself, "The cell leader really doesn't want to live anymore. According to the Ming Dynasty law, even death row prisoners still have the right to be visited before they die. When this matter is over, the cell leader will have to cry.
You can’t call me mother.”
Money is what makes the world go round. The prison boss accepted Duan San'er's silver and naturally let it go with a noble hand. He was weighing a piece of broken silver in his hand, and he was so excited, "I didn't expect that short man to have someone come to visit. It's really strange."
The cell leader muttered to himself, suddenly remembered something, explained a few words to his men and left in a hurry.
Under the guidance of the jailer, Ding Yunyi and Duan Saner came to a single room. The smell in the prison made Ding Yunyi almost vomit. Looking at the lifeless prison, Ding Yunyi did not see where the person he wanted to see was.
"Song Ai, someone came to see you, why don't you get up? You're pretending to be dead." The jailer said angrily, and kicked the cell door a few times as he spoke.
"It's strange. It's really strange. Someone would come to see me. Aren't you afraid of getting some bad luck?"
Ding Yunyi searched for the sound and looked inside. After a long time, he saw a person standing up from inside. After seeing clearly, Ding Yunyi couldn't help but laugh. There was no other reason. The person inside was obviously a child. Could it be that he was Song Xicheng?
"Hey, I have such a good face, little brother. I have never met anyone with such a good face in my life. Even if I die, I will be satisfied." The man suddenly said.
Ding Yunyi couldn't help it anymore and asked with a smile: "Are you Song Xicheng? Why do you look like a child and sound like a fortune teller? It's really interesting."
Song Xicheng also laughed and said: "Interesting? Who is not a child? It's just that the process is a little slower for me. Don't be in a hurry. I will still grow taller slowly."
The jailer seemed to be very familiar with Song Xicheng's attitude and said with a smile: "You are the only one who still wants to grow taller? I think unless I return to your mother's belly and practice again, there is no hope for this life."
Song Xicheng rolled his eyes and said: "I don't think I need to go back to practice. It will be just in time for your funeral. You eat tofu every day and use spinach as a dipping sauce. It won't be long before you have to run errands for the Lord of Hell."
"Hmph. I'm too lazy to argue with you. Wouldn't it be much better to just go back and eat tofu and spinach." The jailer spat and left angrily.
Ding Yunyi was touched after listening to the words of the child-like prisoner. If the person inside was really Song Xicheng, then it seemed that the rumors about him were true. This boy must have been well educated, otherwise he would not have known that spinach and tofu would have an antagonistic effect.
Unfavorable chemical reactions in the human body.
Song Xicheng walked away from the jailer angrily, turned to look at the two people who came to visit him, and asked: "I am not related to the two of you, so why did I come to visit Ding Yunyi? It is really hard to guess. If you are interested, can you give it to Song?"
Just prepare some meat dishes and a small pot of wine."
When Duan San'er saw the headmaster nodding, he immediately said: "The shopkeeper is waiting here. The restaurant is not far from here. I will come back as soon as I go."
Ding Yunyi coughed and said, "I am a merchant from the south. I accidentally heard someone talking about you in the inn. I thought it was very interesting, so I came over to take a look. I hope you don't think I'm disturbing you."
Now that they were close, Ding Yunyi saw that although Song Xicheng looked like a child, he had a beard on his face and was as young as thirty years old.
"No, no, I'm bored here and have faded away. It's nice to have someone to talk to, but I don't think you are like a businessman. Businessmen pursue profits. How can you spend your leisure time on useless things? I'm a liar.
me."
Ding Yunyi suddenly felt that Song Xicheng was interesting, and asked: "Since sir said I don't look like a businessman, what do you think I look like?"
Song Xicheng laughed and said: "Brother is a happy person. For the sake of treating me to a meal, I will give him a free face. Whether I am right or wrong, I will just laugh it off."
"I would like to hear what you have to say, sir." Ding Yunyi deliberately walked closer to let Song Xicheng take a closer look.
"I just said, my little brother has a good face. He has an aura of nobility. He is a noble person. He doesn't have any philistine spirit of a businessman. How can he be a businessman?" Song Xicheng paused, and then
He said: "My face is bitter at first and then sweet. After I reach the age of eighteen, my fortune will gradually increase, and I will become rich and powerful." Song Xicheng's physiognomy was good, but that was all. He could see the person in front of him.
He looked wealthy and noble, but he never imagined who the person in front of him was.
Ding Yunyi was slightly surprised. Didn't you say that fortune-tellers are just two-pronged people? This Song Xicheng really has a lot of trouble. "Sir, do you want me to save you when you say this?"
Ding Yunyi suddenly felt that this Song Xicheng was not flattering Ding Yunyi in disguise. After saying that, he thought it was unlikely. Song Xicheng didn't know that he was Wu Liebo. Why was he flattering me? Is he trying to fool me into eating or drinking?
Song Xicheng did not speak, but took a long breath and said: "It tastes so good. These are my favorite dishes. Thank you very much, brother."
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Saner walked in, holding a bunch of keys in his hand.
"Shopkeeper, Ding Yunyi left a bottle of wine for the jailer, and he turned down the key to the cell door. Shopkeeper, did you... Ding Yunyi nodded and said, "Open the cell door. I'll have a few drinks with Mr. Song."
When Song Xicheng saw the mayor and Duan San'er coming in, he grabbed the wine bottle and took a big sip, smacking his lips and saying, "Good wine, just to my taste."
"We meet each other everywhere in life, and we are destined to meet each other. I would like to toast you sir." Ding Yunyi felt that Song Xicheng's temperament was very cute, and such a person is lovable.
Song Xicheng took a sip of wine and said, "Brother, you want to know the ins and outs of that matter, right? I didn't want to tell you at first. It hurts today. Since I want to know, then Song will tell me."
Song Xicheng put down his wine glass and said, "Song is in jail today, but I feel that he is not unjust at all."
Seeing that the person opposite was stunned, he smiled and said: "Look at me, do you think I can be an official? To be an official, you must at least have official prestige. If I sit in the lobby like this, I'm afraid I won't even be able to control the audience."
Ah. It’s all my fault that my father is so obsessed with government affairs that he didn’t bother even though he sent himself and his son in.”
When Ding Yunyi saw Song Xicheng taking the initiative to bring up this matter, he asked, "It's said outside that Mr. Song used money to gain access to his husband. I don't know if it's true or not?"
Song Xicheng nodded and said: "I also found out about this later. My father was so smart that he couldn't even look at the direction of the wind. What kind of person is Zhang Fushuai? How incorruptible? So this investigation
The exam is different from the past. It is impossible to cheat like before. Unfortunately, my father suddenly lost his mind and wanted to be an official. He actually believed that the test questions would be leaked. The leaker was Yuan Guangyi, who had always been well-known. He spent thousands of dollars on it.
Is it possible to buy the test questions with two taels of silver? That’s fine, I didn’t take it to heart at all. Although I felt disappointed when I came third in the provincial examination, it was completely acceptable. I didn’t come first in Wen. But my dad was too much.
I was so confused that I actually went to Mr. Tixue to argue. The failed candidates took the opportunity to cause trouble, causing us and my husband to go to jail. To put it bluntly, I don’t blame anyone, just my dad. I have nothing to do when I’m full.” (Welcome to come.)
