"Brother An, let's go to the government office."
"Go back, you can't leave now!"
The officers and soldiers of the city defense battalion did not recognize Su Xingyi and his son, and stopped them and refused to let them go!
"We are not the students' family, we are ordinary people who came to join in the fun. There is an urgent matter in the palace, so please be flexible."
"No! Even if you're here to join in the fun today, you can't leave until the situation is clear!"
Just as Su Ning'an was about to use force, he saw Si Chujin, Ling Xiao and others riding towards him on horses.
"Uncle, our family is here to pick us up."
When the officers and soldiers of the patrol camp saw that the person coming was Si Chujin, they quickly let the father and son go.
Si Chujin dismounted and whispered, "Where are you and your son going?"
Su Xingyi quickly stepped forward and said, "Let's go, help and save them!"
Si Chujin asked: "Who to save?"
Su Xingyi whispered in Si Chujin's ear, "Master Qi's wife and daughter have been kidnapped."
"No need to go, the mother and daughter are in the carriage."
Soon, Mrs. Qi and Miss Qi got off the carriage.
Si Chujin and Su Xingyi took the two of them to a best position where Qi Lianli could see the mother and daughter at a glance, barely avoiding the sight of the Cui family.
Mrs. Qi saw from afar that although Qi Lianli had a calm expression, his hands hanging by his sides were tugging at his robe.
She knew he was anxious at the moment.
"Mom, Dad hasn't seen us yet."
When Miss Qi saw the scene before her and thought about the kidnapping just now, she instantly understood what was going on.
"Don't worry, your father will find us soon."
About half a cup of tea later, Qi Lianli looked over.
A gentle smile instantly appeared on his face.
Master Su is too fast!
In less than a quarter of an hour, his wife and daughter were rescued!
Huh? No! The time is wrong.
It must have been arranged by the princess in advance!
In short, he can perform beyond his normal level in the next scene!
Half an incense stick later, Lin Yu and others came back with a young man dressed in gorgeous clothes, with fair skin, slightly plump and wealthy.
"Sir, this is Qian Xiaolai!"
Qian Xiaolai was extremely panicked at this time.
What is this?
As soon as he left the inn and was about to go home, he was arrested.
Qian Xiaolai approached and bowed to Qi Lianli and the others. "Greetings, Your Excellency, examiners. I am Qian Xiaolai from Anping County. I wonder what brings me back?"
Qi Lianli said, "This scholar Lin beside you suspects you of cheating in the imperial examination!"
"It's unfair! How could a student do such a thing?! The invigilation for this provincial exam was so strict that even if a student wanted to cheat, they wouldn't have the guts to do it..."
The key point is that he only took the exam to satisfy his family members, and his success was entirely due to luck!
But if someone suspects you of cheating in the imperial examination, you absolutely cannot admit it!
"Please, sir, clear my name."
Qi Lianli said, "You can prove your innocence and use your test paper to convince Mr. Lin and let him know where he is inferior to you. Do you agree to take out the test paper and display it publicly for everyone to see?"
Qian Xiaolai took out the test paper from his school bag and said, "I do!"
"Okay! Go find Qian Xiaolai's test paper."
Soon, Qian Xiaolai's test paper was brought over, and Qi Lianli read out Qian Xiaolai's test paper in front of everyone.
When the failed students heard Qian Xiaolai's essay and compared it with their own, they found that it was indeed better than theirs.
The more Lin Boyuan listened, the more ashamed he looked. There was indeed a big difference between his writing and Qian Xiaolai's.
Wu Huaiyuan and the other nine students on the list felt a surge of emotion when listening to Qian Xiaolai's article.
If Qian Xiaolai, who is of such a high level, can make it onto the list, wouldn’t it be easier for their articles to make it onto the list?
"How is it? Mr. Lin, do you know where you are lacking now?"
Lin Boyuan was convinced at this time, and quickly bowed and apologized to Qi Lianli, Zhang Sheng and others, and also bowed and apologized to Qian Xiaolai.
Qian Xiaozi proved his innocence and did not take advantage of the situation.
He knew very well that the imperial examination could change a person's destiny, so it was understandable that Lin Xiu had some doubts.
"Sir, I have proven my innocence. Can I go now?"
Qi Lianli said, "Of course you can." Then he looked at the students and said, "I don't need to say much. It doesn't matter if you failed the exam this year. You can try again next year. Don't block the door anymore. Please disperse."
The students who failed the exam knew that their level was not as good as Qian Xiaolai, who was at the bottom of the list, so they had no intention of taking back the test papers and turned around to leave.
"Wait a minute!"
When Cui Xun saw Wu Huaiyuan speak, his heart rose to his throat.
Qi Lianli asked, "Why? Are you still not convinced, student?"
"Sir, I, Wu Huaiyuan from Xishui County, am certain that my essay for this provincial examination is far superior to Qian Xiaolai's. If he can even place at the bottom of the list, there's no reason for me not to be on the list!"
Wu Huaiyuan?
It turns out he is Wu Huaiyuan!
Zhang Sheng and Du Huaian looked at each other and said, "Oh no!"
This time I hit a wall.
what to do?
Never let him see the test paper, otherwise the matter will be exposed.
Wu Huaiyuan held his test paper in both hands and handed it to Qi Lianli. "Please, sir, I want to take my test paper back. Please read out the comments in public so that the students can be convinced!"
"How dare you!" Zhang Sheng stopped him. "You can't even rank 301st. You can imagine how poor your level is. Don't humiliate yourself. Get out of here right away, or I'll treat you as a sorcerer!"
Wu Huaiyuan looked at Zhang Sheng and said, "I just want to use the test paper to get my own test paper back. Isn't this the imperial decree? I am only acting according to the emperor's will and asking you to comment on it in person. If I still don't accept it, I can take my test paper to the Ministry of Rites to appeal."
