The thief's actions are utterly despicable!

They want to ruin this hard-won opportunity, to destroy the great cause of enabling everyone to read and write, to understand right and wrong, and to know honor and shame!

Sun Boheng's words were resounding, already binding his own life and the lives of all the examiners to His Majesty's reform chariot.

As the Junior Supervisor of the Six Departments, he was already among the top officials in the court. He was not a staunch supporter of the emperor and often weighed the pros and cons.

But at this moment a huge blunder occurred, and no matter the reason, the examiner cannot escape blame.

For the sake of his career, and even more so for his life and his family, he had no other choice.

We have no choice but to stand up for His Majesty at all costs and stabilize the situation.

"Although I do not know what methods the thieves used, the court will definitely investigate to the end."

At that time, we will give a clear and transparent explanation to students and people all over the world.

Until the truth comes to light, all of us examiners will remain inside the examination hall, not venturing out, awaiting a thorough investigation by the imperial court!

The unrest has been temporarily suppressed.

Sun Boheng immediately ordered that more yamen runners be deployed to guard the notice wall and the gates of the examination hall.

At the same time, immediately gather all the examiners who participated in grading the papers, and do not allow any of them to leave.

Several constables carried the pale-faced Li Jingyao, staggering towards the gate of the examination hall.

Sun Boheng glanced at him, unable to hide his disdain.

Spending one's entire life confined to the prestigious Hanlin Academy, one becomes pedantic and dull, utterly incapable when faced with momentous events.

Ha, you think you can compete with Prime Minister Pei? You're not worthy at all.

His gaze swept away in an instant, and Sun Boheng walked at the very front with his head held high and chest out.

He doesn't seem like a sinner who has committed a grave mistake, but rather like a victorious general returning home.

Deep down, I felt helpless; I had done all I could.

What happens next is no longer within his control.
