Gao Yang was somewhat stunned, staring at the resentful and angry face in front of him, and dared not speak for a moment.
Yang Qiguang continued to mock, "What, I hit the nail on the head, and now you have nothing to say? From now on, you don't need to show off these things in front of me, it's meaningless."
After saying that, he was about to walk into the line.
Gao Yang grabbed him, somewhat confused as to why he would say such a thing. Seeing the impatience on the other's face, he still said, "Qi Guang, I didn't mean to brag. I was really worried about you when you weren't home the other day."
Since you don't want to hear those words, I won't say them.
I'm so happy you could come to the autumn examination; I hope we can both make the list.
After saying that, he seemed to remember something, and after scanning the crowd around him, he said in surprise, "I just heard Liu Wenge's name. He seems to be in this exam room as well."
"Don't be afraid of him. Once we're in the exam hall, everyone will be in their own cubicles. Even if he wanted to bully you, he wouldn't have a chance."
In the past, whenever Yang Qiguang saw Liu Wenge, he would be terrified, like a mouse seeing a cat. He didn't want to be influenced by that kind of person on such an important day as the Autumn Examination.
Yang Qiguang tensed up instantly, staring intently at Gao Yang, his legs trembling involuntarily.
He didn't understand what Gao Yang meant, but he became increasingly uneasy.
Did Gao Yang discover something, and was he just warning him not to act rashly?
If someone suddenly reports him for taking an exam for someone else, will he be taken away immediately?
When the time comes, beheading will be the only outcome for him.
The more I think about it, the more scared I get.
But Gao Yang remained in the queue as if nothing had happened. After looking for a while without seeing Liu Wenge, he couldn't help but feel strange. "This is really strange. I just saw Liu Wenge. How could she have disappeared like this?"
The people were clearly there when roll call was taken, but they seemed to have disappeared when they lined up to enter the dorm.
And the people around him... for a moment he was unsure whether he was seeing things or if those people had really changed.
He didn't pay much attention to the people around him at the time, only glancing at them briefly, so he wasn't sure if they had changed.
But Liu Wenge truly saw and heard the proctor call that name.
He can forget everything else, but he would never forget this person.
He felt as if his memory was becoming confused.
Yang Qiguang trembled with fear. Seeing Gao Yang frowning and looking around, he couldn't help but panic as well.
Seeing that most of the scholars in front of him had already entered the examination hall, he had a sudden idea and immediately said to the invigilators beside him, "Sir, he, he brought cheat sheets, he wants to cheat."
After saying that, he was about to walk towards the group.
Once he's inside the examination cell, Gao Yang can't say anything even if he has doubts. Plus, with the cheating scandal, the invigilators will definitely check Gao Yang again, which will definitely waste a lot of time.
It's best to let the other person enter before the exam, so they won't have time to suspect anything amiss in the exam room.
He was able to get away with it successfully.
The lead proctor frowned and said, "Wait, don't leave yet."
Yang Qiguang was startled and clenched his fists in unease, but dared not disobey. He just stood there, frozen in place, as if the blood in his body had frozen.
Chen Wancai, however, looked at the people who had already been subdued by the Imperial Guards.
Gao Yang was completely incredulous and his mind went blank. He stared at Yang Qiguang as if he had seen a ghost, but he still quickly explained, "Sir, I didn't have any cheat sheets, and I didn't intend to cheat."
"If you do not believe me, you may come and search."
Chen Fangcai only instructed the Imperial Guards to search Gaoyang.
Yang Qiguang's face grew even paler, and he regretted his earlier ramblings.
After Gao Yang was thoroughly searched and it was confirmed that he had no cheat sheets, Yang Qiguang panicked instantly, and his legs began to tremble involuntarily.
Chen Fangcai merely glanced at him, frowning slightly, casually flipping through the roster in his hand, and said irritably, "What's your name? Why are you slandering him for no reason?"
Gao Yang also looked at him, his eyes full of doubt.
He couldn't understand why his best friend would accuse him of cheating.
Looking at the list of names with their portraits drawn, Yang Qiguang felt flustered and trembled like a leaf, not daring to say a word.
Chen Fangcai merely frowned and coldly demanded, "What's your name? If you don't tell me, I'll kick you out of the exam room for disrupting the exam order."
Gao Yang looked at Yang Qiguang with a puzzled expression. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Yang Qiguang stammer, "Liu, Liu Wenge."
After saying that, he quickly lowered his head.
Upon hearing this, Gao Yang's eyes widened instantly, staring intently at Yang Qiguang, his eyes filled with disbelief.
When Chen Fangcai flipped to Liu Wenge's name list, he frowned. He looked at the man in the portrait who was obviously much fatter than the person in front of him, but pretended not to see it. He said with dissatisfaction, "Liu Wenge, I ask you why you slandered this candidate?"
Seeing that the other party had ignored his identity, Yang Qiguang breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his head, not daring to look at Gao Yang, and hesitated before saying, "I... I might have misjudged."
After saying that, he was about to walk into the examination room.
Gao Yang suddenly exclaimed, "He... he's not Liu Wen..."
Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was covered, and the rest of his words were swallowed up.
Chen Fangcai glanced at Gao Yang and shouted sternly, "This person brought cheat sheets into the examination room with the intention of cheating. Take him away and permanently disqualify him from participating in the autumn examination."
Upon hearing this, Yang Qiguang paused in his steps. Seeing that Gao Yang was about to be dragged away, he hurriedly looked at Lord Chen and stammered, "M-Lord, I, I just misread it. He, he didn't have a cheat sheet, and he didn't cheat."
He was afraid that his act of taking the exam for someone else would be exposed, but he didn't want Gao Yang to never have the opportunity to participate in the autumn examinations again.
Chen Fangcai glanced at him coldly and said in a low voice with dissatisfaction, "If you don't want to take the exam, I'll take you away with me."
Yang Qiguang was taken aback and quickly lowered his head, not daring to speak again.
Gao Yang stared at Chen Fangcai with resentment, unable to believe that these people who were openly cheating on the exam were acting as if they hadn't seen it.
No wonder these ordinary students couldn't pass the exam no matter how many times they took it; it turns out that someone had already bought the spots on the list.
He hadn't believed the rumors before, but now he had no choice but to.
With such blatant cheating, what fairness is there left for these ordinary students?
Why should these high and mighty people make things difficult for ordinary people like them who already have such a hard time living?
The imperial examination was clearly meant to give ordinary people a chance to reach the heavens, so why would these people deprive them of their only opportunity?
The more he thought about it, the more indignant he became. He didn't know where the strength came from, but he shoved aside the imperial guards and shouted, "Someone took the exam for someone else! Someone cheated! Guards! These people cheated..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was knocked to the ground.
