When Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu got off the carriage, the government office was already surrounded, they were slightly taken aback, Zhao Ning squeezed in front of them with Shun Xin, protected them and said: "Come in, Brother Wen and the others have arrived, now In the hall."

"Why are there so many people?"

Zhao Ning sneered and said, "We didn't know about this until we got out of the examination room. Otherwise, the trouble would be even bigger, and the inside would be surrounded by students from all over the place. Everyone is waiting for Zhou Zhifu to give us an explanation."

The candidates left the test the day before yesterday and slept for half a day and one night. They woke up the next day and were about to find out about their answers to their peers, but they got such an explosive news that shocked them on the spot.

Wen Sheng, Qiao Xu and others are not unknown people. Their fame may not be as famous as Gu Jing Yunsheng, but they are not much worse.

Classmates, fellow countrymen, and the same year of the college exam, these are all contacts. When they learned that they were framed and could not be used as reference, the candidates who had just come out of the exam room were instantly angry. This kind of thing must not be tolerated, because jealousy hurts others , especially Chang Kuan's death is particularly distressing.

Therefore, everyone came to help out early in the morning. This was not only about a fair and just struggle, but also a struggle between poor students and the second generation of officials.

Outside the crowd was full of anger and enthusiasm, but behind the government office, the atmosphere was condensed, and the depression before the storm was brewing.

Zhou Yi sighed, and said in a low voice to Ou Tongjuan: "Brother Ou, it's hard to disobey public opinion if it's not for justice and not for help. It is said that Wen Sheng has obtained complete evidence. You have to be mentally prepared."

Ou Tongpan's already unattractive face was even uglier, but he still forced a smile, nodded slightly to Zhou Zhifu and said, "Thank you for reminding me, sir."

Zhou Yi nodded, turned and left, as if he didn't see Ou Dunyi who was behind Ou Tongjuan.

Ou Tongpan stood there for a long time, until Zhou Yi's back completely disappeared before turning around and saying, "Let's go."

"Second Uncle," Ou Dunyi gritted his teeth, knelt down with trembling legs, and begged, "Second Uncle, save me, this matter was all instigated by Yuan Fang, all my classmates can testify..."

Ou Tongjuan looked at him coldly, "If it can be pushed to Yuan Fang, will I still let you get involved? Now you'd better pray that they torture the witnesses, or the witnesses change their statements, otherwise..."

"Second Uncle, you can't do this, I am the most promising child of the Ou family to pass the entrance examination and become an official..."

"That's right, but you're not the only child of the Ou family." Ou Tongpan looked at him seriously and said, "You still have cousins, brothers, you have to think about them."

Ou Dunyi's face turned pale.

"If no one is dead, you can be exiled for up to five hundred miles and sentenced to five years in prison. You can make a comeback when the rumors pass, but now that one person has died, those candidates are the most likely to be instigated..." Ou Tong did not finish his sentence, meaning But it was obvious that if the evidence was conclusive, Ou Tong would not be able to keep him.

At that time, Ou Dunyi can only be asked to extract the Ou family as much as possible, and to disregard the relationship between the Ou family and this matter.

The two uncles and nephews went to court with sullen faces, while Ou Tongpan was listening, but Ou Dunyi had to stand in the hall.

At this time, Dr. Wu and the bound Xu Wu were kneeling in front of the hall, and there were twenty-four candidates standing behind them, with Gu Jingyun, Wen Sheng and Qiao Xu standing in the lead.

Ou Dunyi gave Gu Jingyun a hard look. He already knew that the cause of this incident was that Gu Jingyun's wife sued someone for sabotaging the rural examination and murdering the candidates for the rural examination.

Otherwise, no one will find out if this matter is not spread, and he will be fine.

So if you want to ask Ou Dunyi who he hates the most at this time, the first is Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu, and the second is Yuan Fang.

The plaintiff and the defendant are all present, as are the witnesses.

Zhou Zhifu went to court, and the trial began as soon as the gavel was tapped.

His eyes swept down the hall, and he couldn't help but see cold sweat behind his back. This case has developed to the point where he can no longer decide how he wants to be judged.

Gu Jingyun and the others have obtained the evidence, and all the evidence points to Ou Dunyi.

Ou Dunyi could only grit his teeth and say that they were extorting a confession, but they didn't do anything to Dr. Wu. Xu Wu didn't have any trauma except for marks from the rope.

Dr. Wu was afraid that the scholars would really target the Wu family for retaliation, so naturally he did not dare to retract the confession. Instead, he provided a lot of evidence, such as, "Because they are all prescriptions for scholars, the young ones will inevitably have doubts, go to the doctor At that time, I was more distracted, only to find that the reason why they had diarrhea was because they ate an osmanthus cake provided by the inn."

"The sweet-scented osmanthus cake is a specialty snack in the inn. It is not only good, but also cheap. Candidates who live in the inn can't afford supper at night will order a portion. If you can't finish eating at night, you can continue to eat it in the morning. The snack is not easy. It’s bad, it’s fine if you keep it for two days. But the osmanthus cake is mixed with some medicine that can cause diarrhea, which is covered by the strong scent of osmanthus, and they often eat it, so they have diarrhea.” Doctor Wu is a doctor, and the doctor’s last Good at observing words and expressions, the book boy asked him to prescribe medicines for several scholars one after another, but they all lived in the same inn, and he knew that the person who gave them the medicines was the people in the inn.

In order to prevent Ou Dunyi from murdering people, he also left a lot of evidence, for example, "Once the book boy went to the young one to prescribe medicine for Mr. Wen, and the young one saw that the jade hanging around his waist was very good, and it didn't seem like he could use it. He asked one more question, he said it was rewarded by his master, so the younger one went around begging for it, and now the jade is here..."

Then he said: "We have cooperated too many times, the younger one reckoned that the son should trust the younger one, so the younger one excused that it was too dangerous for the book boy to come to the younger one, so he asked them to write a note and hand it to me if they had any instructions in the future. This way we can avoid too much contact, and that young master agrees, and now I have two notes written by him in my hand."

"How can you be sure that they will see you for medical treatment?" Zhifu Zhou asked curiously.

"The small clinic is near the inn where the examinees are staying. Generally, they look for a doctor nearby. I just need to sit and wait for them to come to me before other doctors." Dr. Wu said: " If the place is far away, I will wait nearby in advance according to the date he said. When someone comes out, I will carry the medical box and go forward, and then report the name of the medical center. Most people will invite me to come, so I have never missed it. "

Not only human evidence, but physical evidence.

If Dr. Wu did not retract his confession, Xu Wu, who was afraid of being beaten, naturally did not dare to retract his confession, so he gritted his teeth and said everything.

It turned out that he not only hit people, but even threw things from upstairs to hit people.

Zhou Zhifu took a look at the pale Ou Dunyi, and ordered someone to go to the inn to arrest the chef, especially the chef who made the sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

Ou Dunyi listened with a gloomy expression, turned his head to glance at the crowd, and accurately saw Yuan Fang who was watching in the crowd.

Meeting his eyes, Yuan Fang's heart skipped a beat, her intuition was not good, and sure enough, Ou Dunyi, who had been standing upright, lifted up her robe, knelt down, kowtowed and said, "My lord, the student pleads guilty, these things were indeed instigated by the student, but the student also Bewitched by others, please forgive me."

Yuan Fang's complexion changed, he clenched his fists tightly, and he sneered in his heart. He had already prepared that he would frame him, and he was also prepared.

"Oh?" Zhou Zhifu leaned forward slightly, "Who is it?"

Ou Dunyi turned around, pointed at Yuan Fang in the crowd, and said, "It's him, the student's classmate Yuan Fang."

A circle immediately opened up around Yuan Fang, and everyone looked at him curiously.

The corners of Gu Jingyun's mouth curled up slightly, and Baolu said that Yuan Fang was the culprit, but judging from the evidence they found, they couldn't identify Yuan Fang at all.

But not being able to ask about his sin doesn't mean they can't do anything.

The future is long, if the enemy is confirmed, naturally he is not afraid of him running away.

"He taught me all the methods here, and he also told me that those who are powerless and have slightly better grades than me can't refer to it, so it's easier for me to get a good grade in the exam. That's why I've been scheming."

Yuan Fang smiled wryly, stepped forward to salute with a face full of grievances and distress, and said, "My lord, how dare a student behave like this."

He turned his head and said to Ou Dunyi: "Brother Ou, I really regretted it at the beginning. If I didn't mention these strange tales, maybe you wouldn't have entered the barrier. In the end, you did such evil things, which caused so many people in the same year to lose their lives. For reference, Brother Chang died in Huangquan."

After finishing speaking, he bowed to the prefect of Zhou in the hall with a face full of shame: "My lord, I used to study abroad before Xiaqiu Wei, and I am particularly interested in strange stories and stories, and because I am a scholar, I especially like to collect strange stories about scholars. Among them are demons and goblins who seduce the students rushing to take the exams, so that they cannot take the exams in time, and there are goblins who are reluctant to give up the scholars to get the honors in the exams, fearing that they will abandon her after the exams, so they drug him, or make him accidentally miss the imperial exams. There are all kinds of weird things. It was just a small story to amuse boredom, but who knew Dun Yi would take it seriously."

Only then did Wen Sheng fix his eyes on Yuan Fang's face, his eyes were cold, why did he collect these stories by such a coincidence?

And let Odun Yi learn from it.

The others were not fools either, and looked at Yuan Fang one after another.

Yuan Fang was not annoyed, and continued: "Students love these miscellaneous notes, so I have sorted out a lot of them myself, and this is only a small part. After the incident, I also guessed that my method of these miscellaneous notes made Dunyi think wrongly. But if you believe that it is I who gave him the idea, I will not admit it, my miscellaneous notes contain everything, and the most of them are repaying kindness, if you don't believe me, you can ask my book boy to go home and get them."

Yuan Fang's frankness and frankness made everyone's doubts go away a lot.

Even Wen Sheng's eyes became gentler.

But Ou Dunyi raised his head with a "huh", stared at him fiercely and said, "Yuan Fang, you didn't tell me other stories, you just told me these few stories."

Yuan Fang shook her head sadly and disappointed, "Brother Ou, you, how could you accuse me so badly? My classmates all know that I love miscellaneous notes. I often tell them strange stories. They have heard everything you have heard, you, you How can people misunderstand me by taking it out of context?"

Among the crowd, a scholar who was studying with Ou Dunyi and Yuan Fang hurriedly said: "Brother Yuan is right, he does often tell me strange tales, and sometimes he tells ghost stories to scare us. Have we heard ghosts?" You have to learn from the ghosts in the story to kill people? It’s obvious that Ou Dunyi’s intentions are not correct, and he’s thinking crookedly, how can you blame Brother Yuan?”
