Although the three provincial examinations were over, the papers were not finished and the Guibank was not released. Suddenly, the big case of scholars setting fire to Yiwen Bookstore was released. The most hotly discussed in the streets and alleys of Jinling was naturally the hottest issue. ←, however, the five cities of the military personnel, Yingtian Mansion, and three yamen runners from two counties in Yuanjiangning were all dispatched. The streets were covered with people wearing these public clothes, so ordinary people naturally went out less if they could go out. Even at noon, there were few ordinary pedestrians in Dazhong Street and Sanshan Street, which were once lively and bustling, and only teams of soldiers and servants were seen passing by.

Because the streets are full of people with similar clothes, even if they may not know each other, they often look at each other and smile and will not ask questions after meeting each other. After all, the people who set fire fired out shadow graphics based on the witness's identification. Although these scholars may not be able to tie the chicken, they always have a high opinion of themselves and will not be able to get rid of the fish. Therefore, no one will ask questions even if they are single officers, soldiers or officers.

At this moment, a low-sized sergeant passed by several groups of people, raised his hand to greet them calmly, and turned into a dark alley. After walking forward for a while, he looked left and right, and knocked on a small inconspicuous door rhythmically. When the door was pushed open silently, he immediately flashed in. After greeting the man guarding the door, he hurried to the door door with him, then lifted the curtains and entered the room one after another.

"I made an excuse to my superiors and came back. Don't show up these days, and the outside is very tight. Fortunately, because the one who surrendered on the spot was a scholar, and the other two were considered scholars, otherwise it would be difficult."

"Don't worry, we all dressed up at that time. Even if the shadow graphics were drawn a little similar, others would come to the door to follow the map and could not find us."

"After all, we show a Suzhou accent, and the ones we are mainly investigating are naturally those Suzhou scholars. Who doesn't know that Susu students are the best at making trouble!"

"Of course. Thanks to your Xiaosi in Dongcheng Bingmas, you can know any changes as soon as possible."

Xiaobei, who was sneaking quietly in the room, couldn't help but widen his eyes. Although she was anxious to chase people before, Yan's mother pulled her, one chased her first, and the other changed her outfit and followed the mark. When she climbed over the wall and entered the yard, the two of them were covered in black scarves, dressed up like a strong man in the world. She glanced at Yan's mother in confusion, and saw that she signaled her to continue listening, she suppressed the impulse in her heart and continued to hold her breath and listened.

The people in the room obviously did not expect someone to sneak in outside in the blink of an eye, and the three of them continued to talk softly. The low-soldier who entered the door informed the various movements in the Dongcheng Military and Ma Si, including the previous search of the Xin'an Guild Hall. When he said that someone came forward to protect Jiang Wenming, Pan Erye, deputy commander of the Dongcheng Military and Ma Si, did not only release the people, but also repaid the favors, and someone burst into laughter.

"When did Pan Er change his temper? Although he is not as profitable as Yingxiong, he is not that soft. After all, he was a scholar who was born in the Zhejiang Army for a while, and until now, many people have impressed him. Wait, I remember that among the scholars who came to Huizhou to participate in the provincial examination this time, there seems to be a man named Wang Fulin, who is the nephew of Wang Daokun, the Minister of War, or the son-in-law of Huining Dao?"

Xiaobei was wondering when he was outside. It is true that Wang Fulin is famous in Nanjing these days, but that is just a scholar. How could these people in the house be so clear now?

"Wang Fulin? Just a teenage scholar, it should be just that Wang Daokun deliberately created momentum for his nephew. However, Wang Daokun is still in love and righteousness. After the tribe passed away, he also launched a public memorial service in Huizhou gentry and wrote a lot of poems himself, but he shouldn't be with Xu Jie's favorite disciple Zhang Juzheng! Who killed Hu Butang? Isn't it Xu Jie! Zhang Juzheng was Xu Jie's favorite disciple. Did he once persuade him in a few words? He was not as good as Gao Gong. At least Gao Gong was dead in the tribe. He agreed to recover his official position, but what about Zhang Juzheng? We old subordinates of the Zhejiang Army at that time, we will soon be demolished and cut off the bridges and cut off the bridges across the river!"

After hearing this, Xiaobei already understood that she had not recognized the wrong person. The one she saw just now was indeed one of her father's personal soldiers back then. If it weren't for her sturdy figure, she wouldn't have recognized this person because of the traces of time. She wouldn't have chased her all the way here because of the concern in her heart.

"Speaking of this, the ministry is already very considerate with us old ministry. Some of them were given silver and dismissed early. If you want to find a job like this, you will take various ways to settle them in various garrisons, including the Five Cities of Nanjing Military Affairs, and some were transferred to Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou. But Qi Jiguang is good. Even if he was promoted by Zhang Juzheng, if it weren't for the ministry protecting him and using him well, he would have the opportunity to stand out like this? After the ministry died, he didn't even dare to give up a fart, and he didn't even have a tribute. It's amazing to flatter Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng. No wonder he could be his general steadily!"

"Forget it, don't be so harsh. This time we seized the opportunity to set off that fire. If Feng Bao's godson could really make a big fuss and fight with these scholars from Southern Zhili, we will see how Feng Bao ended! As a garrison eunuch, Meng Fang specially opened a bookstore before this autumn examination to cheat the students' money, and even threatened to blackmail it. She was simply bold! The scholars in the southeast were all talking and talking, and now they are sovereignty. I don't believe that the two empress dowagers in the capital were really trusting the people around me. Without Feng Bao, how could Zhang Juzheng's position be stable?"

Just as the three of them were indignant, a low voice suddenly came from outside the door: "If you are not in your position, don't you do anything about your affairs, don't you care too much?"

When they thought they were conspiring in the safest place, they were suddenly drunk. At that moment, the three of them almost didn't jump up. But with the sound of talking, the paper window suddenly broke open, and then they were several smoking paper tubes thrown in. Faced with such a strange scene, they all subconsciously closed their breath and rushed towards the exit with all their might. However, they failed to take a few steps, and the three of them fell down without any distinction. They were shocked and thought of something, only the stubborn man suddenly took a deep breath, and then suddenly widened their eyes.

"Soft Ma Yan? Could it be that the brother of the former Zhejiang Army?"

"Hmph. Otherwise, the officers and soldiers will be here now!" Xiaobei deliberately suppressed his voice to a low and let his mother continue to hold the window for him, and then said word by word. "Hu Butang has already received a gift, although he may not be able to keep his eyes closed. But after all, he will no longer be stigmatized, but if you are discovered by someone, will you continue to pour a basin of dirty water on him?"

If the question from the stubborn man at the beginning only made the other two feel relieved, then when they heard the scolding, the three of them could say that they all breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, the stubborn man quickly explained: "The brother outside. We appreciate your kindness, and we are not so angry that we are so desolate behind Budou, so..."

"What's that? The ministry has been carrying the wrongs for a day or two. Why didn't you make a fuss when you were wronged and imprisoned? Why didn't you make a fuss when you committed suicide in prison? Why didn't you make a fuss before the court cleared last year? It's not that I underestimated the military robes, it's okay to fight, but it's absolutely not good! How did you think of this kind of thing that uses scholars to make trouble and fan the flames!"

Yan's mother was guarding the window, but she was still holding two paper tubes in her hand. When she heard Xiaobei's words clearly, she couldn't help but feel moved. She quickly turned her head to look at the second lady. The wet nurse who escorted Xiaobei out of Huizhou was her cousin. After she died of illness in her early years, she entrusted her to Mrs. Su. No matter what kind of relationship she was in love, she took good care of Xiaobei. Unexpectedly, the stubborn girl who was in the past became like this now. Whether it was because of the incident that caused her deceased father, or because she was influenced by Wang Fulin, Mrs. Su could finally feel at ease.

The three people in the room were caught off guard by these questions. After a while of hesitation and silence, someone said softly: "Xiao Si, you came up with this idea? You said that you heard what Meng Fang did in the Dongcheng Military and Ma Si, and said that his Yiwen Bookstore made a lot of money from many scholars..."

"Yes, Xiao Si, you said early on that the questions given by the examiner this time are quite a bit. Whether it is the so-called ban or the top-secret collection of essays, they must have been idle, so I have to find a student to make trouble. For what you said, I found a scholar from Fengyang Mansion who was born in a poor family a few days ago. As expected, he felt bad after this provincial examination, so he took the initiative to set off the first fire and stayed on the scene, giving us a chance to escape!"

"Xiao Si, we are brothers at least. You won't really cheat us, right?"

Seeing that the two brothers' spearheads were all pointed at their heads, the stubborn man immediately turned red and opened his mouth and cursed: "Who are you? Why are you pretending to be the robes of the past to provoke us brothers!"

"This is strange. It's the Ruo Mayan you recognized yourself. I think I am a brother of the Zhejiang Army, but now I say I am trying to pretend. At that time, Hu Butang had many staff members. If they were there, it would not be surprising to think of such tricks to drive away the wolf. But only you three cobblers actually planned to plot against thousands of scholars, garrison eunuchs, and even Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao. Don't you think you are overestimating your ability? Not to mention anything else, how did that hero Shao of Danyang die? I think you all know it!"

Seeing that the two brothers were indeed staring at him, the sturdy man felt cold in his heart. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Help!"

But as soon as he said this, a figure outside the door suddenly rushed into the room without saying a word, and he grabbed it hard to his mouth. This time it was very bad. His right face immediately swollen and his whole body fainted. When the other two were stunned in the face of this scene, they were stunned and could not say a word.

"Think about it yourself. If these things are exposed, what will happen!"

Xiaobei just recognized that the squat man was once one of the personal soldiers whom his father Hu Zongxian was escorted to the capital. So he wanted to ask about the past of this person in the capital, but he didn't expect that he felt something was wrong when he listened to it. He learned the ideas that Wang Fulin mentioned before and would actually involve such a thing. At this moment, even she herself was already worried and didn't know what to do, but she could only hold on and hold on. After saying this, she turned around and walked out: "In short, you guys will end up with the rest!"
