Chapter 305: Being taken away when the fighting spirit was high

"Oh my god, I got it! I got it!"

The villagers cheered each other excitedly.

Originally, Li Zhiyuan's success in passing the imperial examination had little to do with them.

But because of Mrs. Zhao's disturbance, the villagers became unusually united. Not only did they wish Li Zhiyuan would become a juren, they even hoped that he would immediately become the top scorer in the imperial examination. So as to make Qinghe Village jealous.

Mrs. Zhao’s face turned pale. No way? Is it because her old eyes are blurry that she saw it wrong?

Phew, it was all in vain!

Li Zhiyuan was also surprised: "How could it be..."

Mrs. Li said excitedly, "What do you mean you can't? You must have seen it wrong! Zhiyuan, you passed the exam! You are a juren! You can become an official!"

"Yes, I read it wrong!" Li Zhiyuan's eyes were red: "I knew it! I knew it! I answered so well! When I picked up the pen, my thoughts flowed like a spring, and I wrote as if inspired by God..."

"My article is so beautifully written and so good, how could it not be accepted!"

Li Zimo: "Dad, congratulations!"

Li Jiaojiao also breathed a sigh of relief. Although she didn't want Li Zhiyuan to be in a nebulous state, the current situation could indeed slap Zhao Pozi and Ye Caiping in the face.

You know what, it’s so cool to have one twist after another!

The villagers said: "Master Xiucai, no, it should be Master Juren, congratulations!"

"Congratulations!"

Several yamen runners were watching from the side with confused faces. What was going on?

Li Zhiyuan stepped forward with excitement and pride: "Ladies and gentlemen, may I know which rank I got in the imperial examination?"

One of the yamen runners finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Fuck you, this candidate! I said you passed the imperial examination? Did I say you came to announce the good news?"

Li Zhiyuan and all the villagers were frozen.

What, you’re not here to announce the good news? Then... Li Zhiyuan didn’t win?

Zhang Shuiniang was unwilling to accept the result: "How is it possible..."

"Get lost! What do you want to do with this!" The yamen runner rudely waved Zhang Shuiniang away and stared at Li Zhiyuan: "Are you Li Zhiyuan? Li Zimo and Li Jiaojiao?"

As he spoke, he looked around at the three of them.

Li Jiaojiao frowned, having a bad feeling in her heart.

Li Zhiyuan's face turned pale: "Yes. May I ask why you are here..."

The leading yamen runner snorted coldly: "Come here, tie them up and take them back to the yamen!"

As soon as he finished speaking, six or seven yamen runners rushed in from behind, kicked Li Jiaojiao and the other two to their knees, and then put shackles on them all!

"Oh my god!" When the villagers saw this, they all took a few steps back in fear: "This is, this is shackles! Only prisoners wear them!"

Li Jiaojiao's mind went blank.

She found out, her plan to steal the questions was exposed!

How could...

Li Zimo also realized it, his face turned pale and his body trembled.

Li Zhiyuan was still shouting: "Let us go! What are you doing?"

"I, Li Zhiyuan, am a scholar!"

"Shut up!" The yamen runner was merciless and gave him a big slap.

"you--"

Another big cunt!

"I--"

Another big pussy! All the teeth fell out.

Only then did he become completely honest.

The leading yamen runner shouted coldly: "Take him away!"

The three of them were dragged away by a group of yamen runners.

Mrs. Li burst into tears and grabbed the last yamen runner tightly:

"What happened? Why did you take my son and grandson away? You have to give us an explanation, why—"

The yamen runner frowned, "Humph, what else is going on! Of course they cheated in the imperial examination! Not only in this provincial examination, but also in the last imperial examination. They all cheated. Otherwise, how could Li Zimo's nonsense essay be the first place?"

After saying that, he pushed Mrs. Li away and walked away.

It was not until the yamen runners took the three men away and disappeared that the villagers recovered from their shock.

Cheating?

“Hahahaha!” Mrs. Zhao also reacted and rolled on the ground laughing: “I’m dying of laughter! Oh my god!”

"It turns out that the first place they boasted about every day was obtained by cheating."

"And the promise just now... Oh my God! What is this Li Jiaojiao swearing here that she will definitely pass the exam in three years! And she will also get the first place in the exam."

"No wonder she is so confident and speaks so freely. It turns out that her confidence is due to cheating."

The villagers cursed Li Zhiyuan a hundred times in their hearts, feeling ashamed, and turned around and dispersed.

Mrs. Li and Zhang Shuiniang sat on the ground in a daze, almost going dumbfounded.

Mrs. Zhao laughed so hard that her stomach almost burst. She climbed up using her hands and feet and ran out while laughing.

Mrs. Zhao walked quickly towards Qinghe Village.

In all the villages he passed by, he would go in and chat with people he knew, saying that Li Zhiyuan and his gang had cheated in the provincial examination and had been arrested by the government.

Li Zimo also got the first place by cheating.

After a circle, several nearby villages knew about it and were shocked.

…

Ye Caiping had just returned from the Hu La Tang workshop and had just sat down in the main hall when she saw Mrs. Zhao running over:

"Pick the apples, pick the apples!"

Old Lady Ye came out of the room: "What happened again?"

"Li Zhiyuan and his gang were arrested by the yamen runners! It turns out they cheated in the provincial examination!"

"What? There's such a good thing!" Old Mrs. Ye clapped her hands happily, "Quick, go tell the old family."

After saying that, he took Mrs. Zhao and went out together.

As soon as the two of them left, they saw Jin'er and Huan'er coming back together.

Ye Jin'er: "Mom, why are Grandma and Grandma Zhao smiling so happily?"

Ye Caiping said, "Li Zhiyuan has been arrested and thrown into prison. Come on, let's get ready for dinner. If nothing unexpected happens, the court will open for trial after dinner. Let's go quickly so we can get a good seat."

Sister Ye Jiner's eyes lit up: "Okay."

After the Ye family finished their lunch, they got on a horse-drawn carriage and went out in a grand procession.

Except for Ye Yong who went to work and Xiuxiu who was pregnant, all of Ye Da's family came along. Even Mrs. Zhao jumped into the car.

The horse-drawn carriage could not accommodate so many people, so Ye Da's family drove an ox-drawn cart.

Ye Erquan got the job and left early in the morning, so the second room didn't go.

Because the case was serious, it was directly tried by Prefect Qin.

When Ye Caiping and her family arrived at the prefectural government office, the lobby was already tightly surrounded by a group of people, 80% of whom were scholars.

Ye Daquan was shocked and said, "He was only arrested for an hour, how come so many people knew about it?"

Mrs. Zhao patted her chest and said, "I'll tell everyone I see!"

The corners of Ye Caiping's mouth twitched slightly.

There are quite a few scholars in the surrounding area, and today is the day when the exam results are announced. If such a serious case happens, it will spread like wildfire.

Moreover, when Li Zhiyuan and others were escorted back to the yamen, it alarmed many people, so they all gathered to watch.

Ye Caiping clenched her wrists: "What a mistake. It's too late! If we had known, we should have brought lunch with us and eaten it on the way."

At this time, a voice sounded: "Madam Ye."

Ye Caiping turned around and asked happily, "It's the Dragon Boat Festival. Is your master here?"

"Yes." Duanwu nodded with a smile: "The master asked me to invite Madam Ye and the others over."

"Where are you going?"

"please."

Ye Caiping smiled and said, "Okay. Dad, Mom, and Big Brother, let's go."
