As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar!
“Bold!”
Zhang Sheng's face instantly turned as gloomy as the bottom of a pot, and Cui Zhehan's face was also quite ugly!
The students on that list didn't cause any trouble, but it was this unknown young man who ruined things.
Cui Xun kept his eyes on Wu Huaiyuan, really worried that he would take his test paper back.
That's bad!
Qi Lianli was extremely surprised. Was this person really not the helper the princess had found?
A student suddenly spoke up: "The last person on the list is Qian Xiaolai from Anyang County. I saw him when I looked at the list just now. Qian Xiaolai is not here now."
"I know Qian Xiaolai. He is the son of a wealthy businessman. He rarely goes to the academy. I have never seen him take part in the academy's exams, so I have no idea what his level is." Another slightly plump student in blue clothes said.
"Since he's the son of a wealthy businessman, it's very possible that he bribed the examiner to help him cheat!"
After hearing these words, Zhang Sheng, Du Huaian, and Cui Zhehan's faces turned pale!
"This is slander! Someone, arrest these people!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Seeing that the situation was not good, a student immediately scolded his classmates in righteous words.
"If Qian Xiaolai cheated, would the students of Anping County still be able to hold their heads high?"
After saying this, he quickly walked to the front row and said respectfully, "Sir, I am Jing Lanzhi from Anping County. Please help us. The students of Anping County will never cheat in the imperial examination. Please agree to Mr. Lin's proposal and clear Qian Xiaolai's name and clear the name of all the students in Anping County!"
"How can a failed scholar be qualified to read the examination papers of a juren?" Zhang Sheng could not set this precedent for them. Once the precedent was set, the development of the situation would be beyond his control!
Qi Lianli said, "If you want to see it, it's not impossible."
"Master Qi, this is absolutely unacceptable. The students who made it to the list are now Juren, and Xiucai have no right to see it."
"It doesn't matter, as long as the students on the list agree."
"This..." Zhang Sheng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Qi Lianli whispered, "The last one on the list will naturally outdo the students who failed. Are you still afraid that they will continue to make trouble?"
Zhang Sheng thought it made sense, but wouldn’t the truth be revealed if the students on the list looked at the test papers of the students at the bottom of the list?
Seeing that he was about to open his mouth to refute, Qi Lianli quickly ordered:
"Lin Yu! Go and get Qian Xiaolai right away!" Qi Lianli took the opportunity to slip the note to Lin Yu and whispered in his ear, "Give it to Master Su!"
"Yes! I'll go find him right away!"
Lin Yu led his men through the crowd in the direction of Su Xingyi!
Only after the group walked away did Su Xingyi open the note and take a look at it.
