Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

"Yu Xun is playing the victim, but this is a good play directed by his father."

"Ok?"

Jin Jin was a little confused.

"Yu Jin was afraid that I still resented the unpleasant experience we had in Xingnong Yamen, so he took this opportunity to create an image of Yu Xun as a man of high moral character and close to me. This way, even though I would hate Yu Jin, I would have a doubly favorable impression of Yu Xun."

Jin Jin was even more confused: "But the master has already made an alliance with Yu Xun. If the master still hates Yu Jin, why would he make an alliance with his son? Can't Yu Jin understand this?"

“Many times, people’s emotions and rationality cannot be unified.

Director Yu Jin planned this scene because he had calculated Yu Xun's personality and knew that Yu Xun would never agree to cheat.

Yu Xun suffered this punishment not only for me to see, so that he could gain the favor of me, Marquis Zhaoping, but also for those who wanted Yu Xun to cheat.

The Yu family has done their best. As a father, he has already severely beaten his son. His son refuses to give in. What else can he do? "

“But in addition to inducement, there is also coercion!

What if those people use Yu's family to threaten Yu Xun?"

Cheng Wan raised the corners of his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes: "Isn't there me? I already know that someone wants to bribe Yu Xun to cheat and harm me, so how could I not pay attention to the Yu family's movements?"

Jin Jin was silent for a moment.

"Yu Xun said that Yu Jin was biased and was not a good father. I saw that Yu Jin was brave enough to do everything he could for Yu Xun. If this was successful, Yu Xun could continue his imperial examinations and gain the closeness of the Marquis."

Cheng Wan lowered his eyes, his brows calm and indifferent, and continued: "Since the Yu family father and son have no intention of harming me, I am willing to cooperate with the Yu family to finish this play this time."

Jin Jin didn't say anything else.

After a long time, Jin Jin's voice rang in Cheng Wan's mind: "Master, humans are really complicated in their own ways."

……

“My Lord, Lord Yu first said that Master Yu was not here, and refused to come to Cheng Mansion on behalf of Master Yu.

Afterwards, a servant from the Yu family suddenly ran over in a hurry and asked Lord Yu to agree to invite a doctor for Young Master Yu.

Seeing that he could no longer hide the truth, Lord Yu told me the truth that Young Master Yu was at home, and with a grim look on his face, he ordered his servants to take me to see Young Master Yu.

Lord..."

Chen Changtong looked hesitant.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Wan didn't look up and continued to copy the "Imperial Edict" silently.

Chen Changtong frowned: "My Lord, I always feel that Lord Yu is deliberately waiting for me to come, and the timing of the servant's appearance is also very deliberate, as if it was arranged in advance."

Cheng Wan said "hmm" with a calm expression, "Before you left, did the Yu family hire a doctor for Mr. Yu?"

"Yes, I came back only after the doctor finished examining Master Yu. Master Yu was indeed punished with a stick."

"Let those who are targeting the Yu family start acting in the open. The more aboveboard, the better.

Also, recall the person who is watching the other three. "

Chen Changtong was shocked: "My Lord, recall the people who are watching Young Master Jiang and his two companions. What if Young Master Jiang and his two companions come into contact with those people and do what they want, and we don't know about it? What should we do?"

"I know what I'm doing, just do as I say."

Chen Changtong opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when he met Cheng Wan's calm eyes, the words on his lips could not come out.

"Yes, sir, I will give the order right away."

Cheng Wan's eyes warmed up a little, and he smiled at Chen Changtong: "Thank you for your hard work. I will reward you together after I finish the exam."

Upon hearing Cheng Wan's words, Chen Changtong felt that all his fatigue was swept away.

He can still work for the Zhaoping Marquisate for another hundred years!

Cheng Wan looked at Chen Changtong who seemed to be suddenly excited, and remained silent.

Simple, too simple.

It's obvious that he has never experienced the harsh conditions of the modern workplace.

I am so touched by the boss's little concern that I would like to die for him.

"My Lord, I'll take my leave first!"

Chen Changtong went out with a high spirit to do things for Cheng Wan.

Cheng Wan touched his chest and said, "Jinjin, when I see my mother, remember to remind me to tell her to give Chen Changtong a bonus."

Very good, my conscience no longer hurts.

......

The contents of the prefectural examination and the county examination are similar, and both consist of five examinations. However, unlike the county examination which is organized by each county and the chief examiner is the county magistrate, the prefectural examination is organized by each county and the chief examiner is the county governor.

In the ten days or half a month before the provincial examination, candidates from all over Anling County flocked to Shuoyang City.

Suddenly, Shuoyang City was bustling with activity.

Cheng Wan's Suiyilou has been crowded with customers these days.

It can be foreseen that when the provincial examination comes, all the students who are taking the imperial examinations in Liangzhou will come to Shuoyang, which will be a grand occasion.

On April 21st, the provincial examination began.

It was already daybreak, and Cheng Wan, Jiang Shidu and three others were carrying their examination boxes and waiting in line to enter the examination room.

There were always various eyes on Cheng Wan nearby.

Many people here saw Cheng Wan for the first time, but they had all heard of Cheng Wan.

After all, she was the first female official and the first female marquis in the world, and the news spread widely.

Cheng Wan didn't care about any of the looks. She only cared about one thing at this moment.

"Sir, Zhang Fanghai brought a note with him and tried to cheat in the exam!"

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Everyone looked at Cheng Wan in astonishment, not understanding what was going on.

Also, who is Zhang Fanghai?

Zhang Fanghai was being examined by the yamen runners. He was already nervous and guilty, and his heart was beating like a drum. His face was pale and he was so frightened that even his teeth were chattering.

"I...I didn't! Marquis Zhaoping is...spitting blood on me!"

Cheng Wan pushed Jiang Shidu, who was standing in front of her and looked stupid, away and approached Zhang Fanghai: "If you didn't bring any slips of paper to cheat, then why are you trembling? What are you afraid of?" Cheng Wan's lips curled up, her eyes cold: "Zhang Fanghai, the cold sweat on your forehead is about to drip down."

Zhang Fanghai instinctively raised his arm and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead with his sleeve, saying stubbornly: "I... I am... I am mad at you! Marquis Zhaoping, you and I have been together and protected each other, how can you slander me like this!"

"It is because you and I have a mutual guarantee that I must report you before entering the examination room. Otherwise, if you cheat in the examination room, wouldn't you drag the four of us into it?"

When Cheng Wan said this, Jiang Shidu and the other two looked serious and looked at Zhang Fanghai with suspicion in their eyes.

"Zhao..."

"Sir, we will know if Zhang Fanghai tried to smuggle the note into the examination room after searching!"

Cheng Wan interrupted Zhang Fanghai's arguing, bowed slightly to the adult in charge of maintaining order outside the examination room, and spoke in a firm voice.

Slipping a note into the examination room is a very serious matter.

No one dares to take it lightly.

"Search! Check everything you've already searched!

Candidates other than this team of five will continue to queue up to enter the examination room."
