"Okay."
Zhao Jun nodded, handed the bedding to Shi Yu, and asked him to take it back, then said: "Let's go together."
As he said that, he headed towards the southwest of the city.
Potai Temple is located on the other side of Chenzhou Gate in the southeast of the outer city, but Zhao Jun did not go there because he knew that there were no so-called clan daughters there. It would be a waste of time to go there, so he might as well do something useful.
On the way, Song Cai and his companions were talking about the imperial examination, some were excited and some were sad.
Since they had just finished their poetry exam, Song Cai asked Zhao Jun, "This year's poetry exam was about the same difficulty as previous years. Unfortunately, I prepared a poem with a flat rhyme, but I didn't expect it to have a flat rhyme this year. I wonder how you did this time, Brother Zhao?"
"It's okay."
Zhao Jun asked with a smile, "How are you doing?"
Song Cai said proudly, "There's a group of geese down the mountain, and they're chasing them into the river. I jumped in and caught some to cure my hunger. What do you think, brother?"
“Awesome.”
Zhao Jun gave a thumbs up speechlessly.
Although the content is a bit outrageous, it actually fits the standard pattern of this year, and it can be considered a talent.
However, he also knew that if there was nothing to copy, if he took over, what he produced would probably not be much better than Song Cai's, so there was nothing to despise.
If we really follow the regular rules, at least half of the Tang and Song poems will not meet the standards. It is difficult to achieve both excellence and completion within the specified time.
The group came to Qingfeng Tower chatting and laughing.
Ordered a table full of dishes.
As they were talking, they heard the sound of dense footsteps downstairs.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw rows of Imperial City Guards rushing towards them from downstairs. Each one of them was fully armed, and some even carried bows and crossbows.
"What's going on?"
"What are the Imperial City Division planning to do? They just secured the exam hall."
"Could it be that someone abused their power for personal gain and committed a major crime?"
Several people were surprised.
Since the imperial examination, cheating cases have occurred one after another. Now, the Imperial City Bureau has arrested people just after the imperial examination, and they may be involved in a cheating case.
But what they didn't expect was that the people from the Imperial City Bureau did not go to catch the candidates who had just finished the exam on the street, but came all the way to the residence of Li Dewen, the judicial officer of Kaifeng Prefecture.
Qingfeng Tower is located in the east of Laoya Lane, and Li Dewen's residence is near the west entrance of the lane, which is quite far away. Everyone turned their heads to look.
A large number of soldiers from the Imperial City Division were seen using ladders to charge into Li Dewen's mansion. Then the gate opened and countless soldiers rushed in, followed by all kinds of screams.
There were countless people from Bianliang watching below, and many of them were applauding. This was because Li Dewen was arrogant and domineering, and had always oppressed the good people. People on the whole street had a very bad impression of him, so raiding this man's house was really applauded.
Moments later, a large number of Kaifeng Prefecture yamen runners rushed over. The Imperial City Commander, leading the troops, raised his crossbows and shouted, "Li Dewen's corruption has been exposed. We are under the orders of the government and the prefect to arrest him. Any disobedience will be treated as treason and will be executed without mercy!"
Many Kaifeng Prefecture officials looked at each other in bewilderment. Someone shouted, "The Imperial City Administration is using a chicken feather as a token of authority. This is not an order from the emperor at all. Go and rescue the soldier!"
“Kill!”
There were just a few idiots who were fooled into rushing forward.
In an instant, bows and crossbows were fired, killing several people.
Only then did everyone realize that the Imperial City Bureau was serious about this, and they quickly scattered.
For a time, the capital was shaken and there was unrest throughout the government and the country.
