Chapter 548: He must be interrogated!
Unlike Gu Chan and all the other contestants present, Yanli immediately started writing after a brief moment of thinking. She even laughed proudly while writing. Come.
Gu Chan glanced at her and felt something was wrong on the spot.
What level is this woman like? How many people in Jiangnan City don’t know? It is simply impossible to say that she can still be so talented in literature and face such difficult topics easily.
“It seems that there is something wrong with this mistake in the first scene!”
After watching it for a while, Gu Chan began to speculate secretly in her heart.
However, she didn’t say much, but continued to think. She translated all the poems she had learned in modern times and thought about them to see if there were any poems that could match the blank space in front of her. The picture scroll corresponds.
On the other side, in a room behind the high pavilion.
At this time, the old academician was standing in front of more than a dozen academicians and yelling, "What did you do? In such a big event, the first test question was wrong. If the lord hadn't come to our rescue just now, wouldn't it be wrong? What a big joke? You guys are so disappointing."
"But we put all the test papers in the box and locked them up, and checked them many times. There was nothing wrong at all. ! ”
"Yes! We even sent people to guard it. How could something go wrong?"
"This is very wrong. I'm afraid someone changed it for me!"
More than a dozen All the academicians complained with aggrieved expressions.
The old academician was stunned on the spot, his eyes widened, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
The next second, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Go and get the remaining five test questions and check them again. You must not make any mistakes again."
"But according to regulations, after the opening of the poetry meeting today, we can no longer touch the test questions. The test questions have been handed over to the custody of the county magistrate!"
"Yes! The poetry meeting has already started until now. Why haven't I seen Xu Ziguang from Xu County?" After this reminder, the old academician came back to his senses and said.
Then he quickly dismissed a dozen academicians and asked them to maintain order on the scene, and then he rushed towards the warehouse where the test questions were stored alone.
Soon the old academician came outside the warehouse where the test questions were stored.
At this time, Xu Ziguang was lying on a deck chair at the door of the warehouse, drinking wine and eating grapes. There were more than 20 officials standing around the warehouse, all of them with swords across their waists. The warehouse was tightly guarded everywhere.
The old academician stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "Mr. Xu, why are you lying here instead of going to the high pavilion in front to watch the game?"
"I have no interest at all in dancing and writing. Why don't you lie down here and have a drink to feel comfortable?" Xu Ziguang said with disdain.
He has always been a carefree man. Recently, he has neither curry favor with Yan Xishan nor Gu Chan. On the contrary, he is very happy and carefree. After all, ever since he became the county magistrate, he has never He was devoted to the second prince. In the past, because he couldn't stand the actions of the second prince's party, he had repeatedly submitted memorials to impeach Yan Xishan and others.
So he, who is neither a second prince nor a princeling, does not want to deal with Gu Chan and others at all, and just wants to be alone.
The old academician knew this very well and knew that this person was the biggest thorn in the south of the Yangtze River. He did not dare to be presumptuous, but said very respectfully, "Master Xu, please let me Go into the warehouse. I want to check the test questions that were deposited last night to see if there are any. "No, since the questions have been given, for the sake of fairness, no one is allowed to go in and touch the test questions in the next three days. After that, I will go in and pick up the test questions in person before each test. Send someone to deliver it to you," Xu Ziguang said with his legs crossed.
"Master Xu, you are too overbearing! As the manager of Jiangnan Academy, are you still afraid that I will secretly change the test questions?" the old academician said unhappily.
Xu Ziguang ignored him and waved directly at him, signaling him to leave.
The veteran academician threw up his sleeves and left in a huff, not daring to stay here any longer for fear of irritating Xu Ziguang and getting beaten!
"Bah! You old thing, you want to secretly change the test questions to please Gu Chan, right? I won't accept your trick, so what about the lord? If you don't like it, I will still file a memorial to impeach him." Xu Ziguang said He spat on the ground, stared at the old academician's leaving back, and cursed.
After he finished cursing, he drank some wine and hummed a tune, completely fearless.
After half a stick of incense, the old academician returned to the pavilion with a stiff face and sat down next to Gu Chan.
Gu Chan thought about it for so long, but still couldn't figure out the reason. She also threw the paper and pen on the small table next to her. When the old academician came back with a stiff face, she couldn't help but smile and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Lord, I feel that this matter Something's wrong. I just called over a dozen academicians from behind to ask questions. They all said that last night's test questions were verified to be in good condition before being put into the warehouse for storage. As a result, just after the first session started today, the test questions were taken out. It’s just wrong, it shouldn’t be!” the old academician said with a grimace.
"Then you didn't check the remaining test questions?" Gu Chan asked.
"I'm going! But the county magistrate Mr. Xu refused to let me enter the warehouse to check the test questions. According to the regulations of our Jiangnan Poetry Association, after the questions are completed, they must be handed over to the local county magistrate for supervision. If he doesn't let me I can't do anything if I go in to check." The old academician complained to Gu Chan.
Gu Chan raised her lips and smiled when she heard this, and felt that this matter was really interesting.
She had been curious before. Ever since the prince ordered Zuo Wangfeng to lead an army to Jiangnan, all the two princes here were jumping up and down like dogs in a hurry, but she had never I saw the county magistrate Xu Ziguang coming to the Yushi Mansion to discuss matters.
And after she became the lord, Xu Ziguang never bowed or bowed to her.
This really made her suddenly become interested in the Jiangnan County Magistrate.
Seeing that it was still early before the time limit for handing in the paper, Gu Chan said playfully, "Well, you wait here, I will go over and take a look."
"Stop it! Don't you still have to answer the questions? Do you want to write poetry? It takes up so much of your time!" the old academician quickly advised.
Yan Xishan also shouted, "Lord! I advise you not to provoke him. This Xu Ziguang is a stubborn person. All the officials, businessmen and wealthy people in our Jiangnan area know that you are going to provoke him. , he might just go to Kyoto to impeach you."
"Is this person so interesting?" Gu Chan laughed.
"Hey! Forget it, his grandfather was a former Jiangnan general who made great military exploits for the Tiancang Kingdom. We neither dare to touch him nor provoke him. We are so annoyed." Yan Xishan also complained.
Gu Chan was so happy. She really didn't expect that there was such an interesting thing hidden beside her.
What else is there to say? You must interrogate him!
