Chapter Twenty-Four: The Banquet Occasionally Emerges


During the few days they stayed at the Yuelai Inn, they would hear people say that some of the nearby scholars had committed suicide because they failed to pass the examination.

None of them knew any wealthy families.

The scholars had taken the scientific examination several times in a row.

The burden is heavier, and some can only take part in the last scientific examination.

Scholars all have the habit of writing test papers silently.

After transcribing the papers, they looked it up with people they knew, and they all said that the answers were very consistent with the questions.

If nothing else, they would all be able to pass the exam.

But now, they have suffered.

Such a blow severely damaged their nerves and made them unable to think straight.

In the study, Yin and Yin sat opposite each other, their brows furrowed.

Kangxi kept giving orders here.

The people of Longwei always came from the mountains and forests, never walked on the road, and lived in government inns.

Therefore, They don't quite know what the real situation is.

"Sisi, the shopkeeper is here."

Qing Yan went out with Yin Genjueluo, saying that he wanted to order a special dish, so he directly asked the shopkeepers of Linglong Pavilion to come over.

"Slave, please give my regards to the uncle and fourth master."

The shopkeepers quickly saluted after entering.

"Let's start knocking."

Yin waved his hand and said, "Have you been transporting noodles to Yangzhou recently?

How is the road condition?"

Qing Yan sat next to Yin, lowering his head and looking at his sleeves, as if studying the Su embroidery on them.

The shopkeeper Yu Guang couldn't get the order from his master, so he had to follow the original agreement and tell the truth.

"Fourth Master, the situation is very bad.

In order to send things out, we basically send a large amount of silver as facilitation payment at the checkpoint.

The guards all requested to move at night, and there must be no carriage approaching during the day.

Linglong The pavilion invited the governor several times to banquets, and they always came from Yue Lai.

After the banquet of the highest standard in the inn was cleared, Linglong Pavilion lost at least tens of thousands of taels of silver during the two months of Long Live Lord's southern tour.

"Linglong Pavilion has a total of three shopkeepers, and these three are from Yangzhou based on their distance.

The recent shopkeeper Yang also sighed repeatedly.

"What about you, Shopkeeper Yang?

We just met a few days ago."

Yin had an impression of Shopkeeper Yang.

When they left Yangzhou City and settled in the first place, they went to his Linglong Pavilion.

"Yes, the master summoned me, and the servant rushed over quickly.

Entering Shandong, the situation became more and more serious."

Shopkeeper Yang also sighed.

Shandong is the hometown of Confucius.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is a place of worship for scholars.

The scholars here are constantly being designed by the examiners, which is unbearable.

"Did you attack at night all the way here?"

Qing Yan understood.

It was all superficial.

No one was with him during the day, but he did it at night.

Shopkeeper Yang nodded directly and said: "On the day when the results were released, the scholars gathered in Gongyuan.

It was the government officials who sent officials to drive away the scholars.

Some of them were injured.

Yangzhou was in a similar situation.

Mr.

Cao did not give up his promise at that time.

In Long Live Lord After the southern tour is over, I will give them an answer personally.”

The Qingyan rolls up a small handkerchief, but the scholars will hold on to it.

"Why did you say it so nicely?

The scholars carried the God of Wealth over there and kept it at the entrance of the Gongyuan.

Several examiners left early, so the scholars didn't block the door."

Shopkeeper Wang, who was second from Yangzhou, said directly.

The God of Wealth is placed at the entrance of Gongyuan Poof Several sounds of tea being sprayed were heard.

Except for Qing Yan, the remaining people were stunned.

This was blatant dissatisfaction.

"You're right.

The scholars who made the most fuss seemed to have hanged themselves."

Shopkeeper Yang tried his best to think back.

In an instant, everyone understood that someone in the capital had suppressed the news.

Otherwise, Kangxi had been observing the movements in the southern examination hall, so why was there no news at all?

As evening approached, they sent away the shopkeepers.

Yin leaned on the chair tiredly and looked outside with dull eyes.

These examiners in the officialdom were all personally selected by Kangxi, and some of them came from poor families. .

They have been on official career for many years and have long forgotten their former ambitions.

"Si Si, do you think those people committed suicide?"

Qing Yan has been trying to figure this out.

They can't bribe Zuo.

If they can figure it out, they must send slaves who know Zuo to investigate.

"Elu, go to the scholar's house in person and look at the scholars on the list.

How many of them have not been buried yet."

Yin pointed at the list on the table and explained.

The trouble caused by the scholars whose grades were substituted was another Shan said.

Those people on the list were all substituted.

News soon came from the sticky post, saying that if the paper appeared in the provincial examination, it should be good. of results.

Yin kept looking at the piece of paper, but there was still no follow-up from Kangxi.

The silently written file kept coming back, and Yin was worried that Suo'etu and others would not give up.

"Xiao Guai, you ask Bayan to take people to move the scholar's place of residence.

Even the shopkeeper will take a long vacation and they must not be allowed to work again."

Yin silently considered whether it was time to rearrange the layout.

Qingyan listened to Yin's arrangement and took action quickly.

It was not easy to train these shopkeepers.

If there was any injury, Qingyan would feel distressed.

Bayan stood at the door, listened to Su Lan whispering a few words next to him, and rushed outside directly.

Yin tapped his eyebrows with his right hand, hoping in his heart that Bayan was not late.

"My dear, you have to be prepared to change the shopkeeper at any time."

Yin felt unsure.

Ruruo, Suo'etu seized this opportunity and directly used the scientific examination to bribe the shopkeeper.

Yuelai Inn is considered a torment.

An opening was opened.

What "Probably not.

We all helped, and there could still be problems."

Qingyan believed in his own people, but what Yin said didn't make sense.

"Being on guard against others is essential," Yin said directly.

Qing Yan was playing with her handkerchief, thinking about who could take over.

Suddenly, she found that the other shopkeepers would silently train a deputy, but this person was the only one who was not trained.

For a moment, she fell silent.

This Yuelai Inn has a very special status.

It is a transfer station for imported goods, which are extremely profitable.

"Si Si, can you investigate?"

Qing Yan thought about it, but he lost confidence in his heart.

Yin pinched her cheek.

Recently, he found several people in Yuelai Inn.

These were servants of the imperial officials in the capital.

They lived in Yuelai Inn and were very familiar with the shopkeeper.

"What did you find?"

Qing Yan asked.

After the twins were born, he found that he always gave her a few words to let her do everything she wanted, which was obviously different from the way she had always done everything.

"Observe the few people who left Yuelai Inn at the end."

Yin gave a hint.

Those people had all appeared in front of her, so she probably didn't pay attention.

Qing Yan had a confused look on her face, just someone passing by in a flash.

When she came over, she was only thinking about eating, and no one below noticed.

This is what she deserves to be beaten
