Chapter 232 Qin Chi's Counterattack

Yuan Shipeng came over without bringing the exam basket.

His examination basket was carried by his attendant.

When Yuan Shipeng saw Qin Chi standing in line, he almost exploded with anger.

He angrily pulled the follower away from the crowd.

In a deserted alley nearby.

Yuan Shipeng asked with a grim face: "Didn't you say that he was dying? Does he look like a dying man now? I think you look more like a dead person."

"Sir!"

The attendant's face turned pale. "Everyone in the village said he was dying."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Shipeng kicked him in the chest.

The follower fell backwards suddenly, his back hit the wall, and then fell to the ground along the wall. He didn't hold the exam basket tightly in his hand, and it fell to the ground.

I don't care about the pain in my body at this moment.

The attendant knelt at Yuan Shipeng's feet in great fear and explained in panic: "I don't know either. The information I found out is that he has been sick since childhood. The doctor said he will not live to adulthood! He is twenty years old this year, and many people have seen that he is seriously ill..."

"Asshole!"

Yuan Shipeng wouldn't listen to his explanation.

He raised his foot and kicked the follower to vent his anger.

The attendant did not dare to dodge and was kicked until his head was bleeding and his nose and face were swollen. Yuan Shipeng did not stop and continued to beat him to death.

The Yuan family's housekeeper and a servant who were guarding the alley entrance heard the screams from inside, but there was no expression on their faces, as if these were all common occurrences.

Suddenly, a carriage lost control.

It was heading towards the alley entrance, scaring the Yuan family's housekeeper and servants so much that they fled in panic.

Yuan Shipeng was also alarmed, stopped beating people, and strode out of the alley to check the situation.

Just at this moment, a thin boy took the opportunity to run to the examination basket in the alley, pretended to fall, and replaced the hollow brush on the ground with another one.

Hide the original one in your sleeve.

He ran as fast as he could and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The commotion here also attracted the attention of nearby officers and soldiers. The person who lost control of the carriage apologized repeatedly. Fortunately, no one was injured. After a scolding, the coachman drove the carriage away.

Movement in the alley.

The Yuan family didn't even have time to cover up, so naturally no one would come to check.

"Master, it's almost your turn to enter."

A servant came hurriedly to report.

Yuan Shipeng straightened his clothes and glared at the beaten follower on the ground with hatred, "You bastard, wait until I finish my exams, and then I'll come and deal with you."

Then he said to the housekeeper beside him in a sinister tone: "Lock him up and don't allow him to receive medical treatment. A servant who pretends to obey but actually disobeys has ruined my plan. He deserves death."

After saying this, he strode towards the long queue.

Another follower picked up the examination basket and other things on the ground and hurriedly caught up with Yuan Shipeng.

Not far away.

Song Jin watched all this.

Also standing by were Old Li and Qin Qi.

Song Jin looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them. He asked Old Li quietly, "Did your young master arrange this?"

"It was your husband who did it." Old Li said happily.

"clever!"

Song Jin thought he was watching a play.

I really thought Qin Chi was going to swallow his anger.

Oh! She was overthinking! The replaced exam pen must have some hidden secrets.

Students taking part in the provincial examinations need to bring their own writing materials.

Students who take the provincial examination need to bring their own examination supplies, such as brushes, inkstones, paperweights, and water drops. In order to prevent candidates from bringing along cheating supplies, the inkstones are required to be thin, the water drops are required to be made of porcelain, and the brush holders are required to be hollow.

If the brush is found to have problems.

That would be interesting.

Song Jin stood on the periphery and looked at Qin Chi.

Realizing that Qin Chi was also looking at him, Song Jin smiled brightly at him, and the corners of Qin Chi's mouth gradually curled up, with a strong smile on his brows and eyes.

"No! I didn't cheat!"

"This money is not mine!"

At the entrance of the examination room, there was suddenly a commotion.

Yuan Shipeng was picked up by officers and soldiers and was about to be dragged out.

He kept yelling, "I didn't cheat, really! That pen is not mine!"

"My grandfather is a Shangshu, I didn't cheat!"

"You damned lowlifes, why don't you investigate and prove my innocence? Why did you arrest me?"

Even after being captured, Yuan Shipeng remained arrogant and would bring up the name of his grandfather who was a minister from time to time.

"Young Master? Sir, my young master doesn't cheat!"

The Yuan family's housekeeper hurried over and said loudly.

He wanted to step forward to stop them, but was stopped outside by the soldiers.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

No matter how Yuan Shipeng shouted.

It was a fact that something was wrong with his examination basket before he entered the examination room. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he would not be able to take the exam.

Among the crowd of onlookers.

Suddenly someone shouted, "I know who that student is. He's the grandson of Minister Yuan of the Ministry of Works! I got closer and heard him yelling."

"Wow, it's him!"

"His name is Yuan Shipeng. He used to bully his classmates when he was in school. This guy is really bold. He dared to protest his injustice after openly cheating."

"What's there to be afraid of with the Shangshu backing you up?"

"This damned official's son..."

The people outside were very excited after hearing this.

The examiner was impartial and checked the brush in his hand. He found that it was indeed engraved with densely packed small characters. The evidence was irrefutable, so he ordered the soldiers to take Yuan Shipeng away and put him in jail.

Wait until after the provincial examination to review it.

Then, admission order was quickly restored.

A person keeps calculating and calculating, and ends up calculating himself.

After this incident, Yuan Shipeng’s future was ruined.

However, Song Jin had no sympathy for Yuan Shipeng at all.

A person like him who has no bottom line, even if he becomes an official through the imperial examination, will not be a good official who works for the people. Qin Chi's action today might be a good deed.

Song Jin thought so and subconsciously looked at Qin Chi.

She found that Qin Chi was still looking at her.

This made her heart skip a beat, and she silently opened her lips and asked, "What's the matter?"

The smile on Qin Chi's face grew even bigger.

This look and demeanor made Song Jin's heart itch, and he really wanted to ask him what he meant. "What are you doing with those glances?"

Meng Qingrui winked and pushed Qin Chi, "There's a gap in front, move forward quickly."

Qin Chi glanced at Meng Qingrui.

He took two steps forward and followed closely the student in front.

Song Jin stood outside and watched Qin Chi pass the inspection and enter the examination room carrying an examination basket.

He stood there for another half a quarter of an hour.

Then Meng Qingrui and the other two went in.

Song Jin then turned around and was about to leave.

When leaving, he saw Qin Mingsong standing not far away with a young man in gorgeous clothes. The two seemed to be talking about something and looked very familiar.

Qin Mingsong had also gone out with them earlier.

But after arriving here, I don’t know where to go.

"That's the young master's uncle." Old Li glanced at Qin Mingsong, then looked at the young man next to him, "The one next to him is the son of the salt transport envoy."

Song Jin said thoughtfully: "Let's go back."

No need to wait for Qin Mingsong.

The group took the bus back first.

Of course, someone was arranged to guard outside the examination room to prevent any of the four people from leaving the examination room early due to an accident.
