After dressing as the hero's wife

After Ji Yuanchuan showed his identity badge to the guards guarding the door, he explained his purpose.

The guard knew that the young man in front of him was the master of Qingming Academy, so he didn't make things difficult for him, and readily agreed to pass it on to him.

It's just that the waiting time for the transmission was extremely long. Ji Yuanchuan watched helplessly as the sun set to the west, and then the guards hung the lit lanterns under the eaves.

Soon the line of guards at the door dispersed, and a few new faces came out.

He didn't know how long he waited, maybe an hour, maybe two hours, and finally someone came to tell him that he could go in.

Ji Yuanchuan didn't see those invigilators after he entered, maybe he didn't have time to correct the exam papers.What he saw was an old clerk.

The old clerk had a long gray beard on his chin, maybe his eyes were not very good, so he looked at people with squinted eyes.

"You are here to protect the examinee who cheated today? What is his name?" The old clerk rummaged through the desk, and quickly said loudly, "Is it Gu Changsheng?"

Ji Yuanchuan was displeased when he heard this, but he didn't show it. He just said: "Yes, sir. My student is young and energetic, and he doesn't understand many things. Maybe he lost his words. Please forgive me, sir. Take this kid to heart! As his wife, I apologize for him..."

The old clerk was still a little dissatisfied with being temporarily arrested to work, but seeing that the people in front of him spoke nicely, he became more patient.Coupled with the fact that this person is the head teacher of Qingming Academy, he was happy to sell some face.The few people above may look down on this person's identity, but there are still children in his family who are going to study at Qingming Academy.

"I won't tell you too much, this matter is nothing, but Gu Changsheng's cheating in the examination room has both human evidence and physical evidence.

If he had admitted it at the time, nothing would happen, at most he would be disqualified from the exam, and he would not be able to take the exam again after three years, but wouldn't he be able to take the exam again after six years?

It would be even better if he met the saint Kai Enke, but he refused to admit it, and said that someone framed him, which is nonsense.

Those few examiners who came down from the top, those are not gold and jade, they will demean themselves to frame him..."

After talking a lot, Ji Yuanchuan listened carefully and understood the meaning of this man's words.

All in all, it is just one sentence, if you plead guilty, you will be released, if you don't plead guilty, you will be imprisoned for pleading guilty.

Until then the head of the mountain didn't come, Ji Yuanchuan already knew that it was impossible for the head of the mountain to come today, no matter what the reason was, Ji Yuanchuan was inevitably a little disappointed with the head of the mountain.

Since the person behind him wanted to cut off Gu Changsheng's imperial examination path, he probably had prepared everything early. Even if he wanted to clear up Gu Changsheng's grievances, he was probably powerless.

But he didn't want to change anything, he was satisfied if he could rescue Gu Changsheng, let's talk about the rest later!

"My lord, can you go down and dissuade Gu Changsheng for a while, so as to end this matter, so as not to take up your time and prevent you from resting?"

The old document had long guessed the thoughts of those people above, and if it was really an important matter, he might not have fallen into his hands at all, so he agreed to Ji Yuanchuan's request.

After Ji Yuanchuan thanked him, a green-robed guard led him around several times, and finally stopped in front of a hut.

The hut looked like it hadn't been repaired for a long time. There was no padlock on the outside, but a rope was used to wrap the door bolt several times. There were several layers of spider webs on the door. Not only was there no light from inside, but there was no sound.

It looked like a haunted house.

Ji Yuanchuan asked the guide in disbelief: "You locked him up here?"

The guard curled his lips in disdain, and said casually: "That's not bad, the wind won't blow and the rain won't catch me, where does a cheating candidate want to stay?"

Ji Yuanchuan's heart stopped, and he knew it would be useless to talk to him, so he stopped talking, stepped forward and untied the rope.

"Gu Changsheng, are you inside? I came to rescue you out, Gu Changsheng, are you inside? I'm Ji Yuanchuan..."

But until the rope was completely untied, there was still no sound from inside.

Did something happen?

Ji Yuanchuan hurriedly opened the door, only to see darkness.He walked back again, snatched the lantern from the officer behind him, and said, "Borrow it!"

Before the other party could respond, he had already walked towards the hut with the lantern in hand.

The guard was a little angry, but he still didn't say anything.

The light flooded into the hut like a tide, and Ji Yuanchuan could see the situation inside the hut clearly.

In the room full of sundries, there was a thick layer of dust everywhere, and Gu Changsheng was not seen at a glance.

"Gu Changsheng Gu Changsheng..."

What about people?Where did people go?

Just when Ji Yuanchuan was in a hurry to search everywhere, a weak and uncertain voice sounded behind him.

"Master...is that you?"

Ji Yuanchuan paused, then immediately turned his head and looked towards the source of the sound.

nobody!Nothing but dusty debris.

But he clearly heard the voice!

Unless it was behind those sundries, Ji Yuanchuan walked around the pile of sundries and saw a curled up blurry figure.

He quickly stepped forward with the lantern in his hand, and the yellowish light illuminated Gu Changsheng's dirty little face and tired eyes.

"Master..."

Ji Yuanchuan put down the lantern in his hand, squatted down and looked at him.

"I'm here, you can go out soon, don't be afraid!"

Gu Changsheng stared blankly at the man in front of him who brought him light, and regardless of his already numb legs, he suddenly threw himself into Ji Yuanchuan's arms and hugged him tightly.

Ji Yuanchuan hugged the person in his arms subconsciously, stroked his head, and comforted him softly: "It's all right, you're safe, we can go out soon, don't be afraid."

Gu Changsheng buried his face deeply in Ji Yuanchuan's neck, his voice was hoarse and slow: "Master... I didn't cheat... I really didn't..."

The neck was gradually stained with dampness, Ji Yuanchuan felt distressed and blamed himself.

I'm sorry, I can't do anything for you, I can only watch you suffer.

Ji Yuanchuan hugged the trembling body in his arms even harder: "I know you didn't, and with your strength, you don't need to cheat at all, I believe in you, even if no one believes in you, I will believe in you, you didn't cheat. "

"I knew... Master would definitely believe me..."

……

It took a lot of trouble, and when Ji Yuanchuan was able to take Gu Changsheng away, it was past midnight, and the curfew had already been set, and he couldn't leave even if he wanted to.

It was cold at night, and after time-consuming and labor-intensive inquiries, Ji Yuanchuan finally succeeded in renting a room from an officer at a high price for one night, and the officer happily squeezed away with his colleagues with the money.

Xu Shi was frightened and troubled during the day, Gu Changsheng fell asleep early, and Ji Yuanchuan carried him into the room and placed him properly on the couch.

Looking at the black night, Ji Yuanchuan didn't feel sleepy at all, and slowly watched the east gradually brighten and become transparent.

Gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Gu Changsheng's eyes, he seemed to be thinking a lot, but at the same time he seemed to be thinking about nothing, and finally everything was chaotic and disorderly merged into a theme that gradually took shape in his heart.

Even if he refused to face it again, he had to admit that, just like in the novel, Gu Changsheng still had to walk the extremely dangerous road in the end.

He had hoped that Gu Changsheng could walk more easily countless times, but it still didn't help.
