Chapter 246 Trial
While waiting for Qin Chi to take a medicinal bath.
Song Jin went to see Dr. Jing privately.
Asked about Qin Chi''s body.
Then he mentioned the rumors in Qinjiagou that Qin Chi was about to die soon.
Dr. Jing noticed Song Jin''s worry and comforted him: "Madam, the young master''s weakness has been almost cured. As long as he doesn''t mess around and takes medicine on time, it won''t be a problem to live to his seventies or eighties."
"Are you telling the truth?"
The surprise on Song Jin''s face was not concealed.
Doctor Jing nodded, "But the young master won''t let me mention this matter to outsiders."
"Then am I causing trouble for you?" Song Jin finally felt relieved when she heard that Qin Chi was fine. After all, this was something she had been thinking about for a long time.
Doctor Jing said happily: "Madam is not an outsider."
After hearing this, Song Jin said with a smile: "That''s a very good reason. If my husband-in-law asks, I will use this reason to shut his mouth."
"Hahaha…"
Settled down.
Song Jin occasionally paid attention to the affairs of the Yang family and the Yuan family, but his biggest focus was on Qin Chi''s body.
After Song Jin''s careful care.
Qin Chizhou had been working hard for nearly a month, but for the first time in this winter season, he didn''t get sick.
Until the eighth day of February, people were still very energetic.
Song Jin personally sent Qin Chi to Gongyuan.
The carriage almost had an accident on the way.
A bullock cart rushed out of the alley.
The big bull pulling the cart was unknowingly stimulated, and he rushed madly towards the carriage of Qin Chi and Song Jin. It was the secret guard disguised as a passerby who took action in time to control the mad bull.
An accident was avoided.
The carriage passed the scene of the accident.
Song Jin lifted the car curtain and looked back. When she lowered the curtain, the smile on her face disappeared. But in order to avoid affecting Qin Chi''s mentality of taking the exam, she said nothing.
Qin Chi held Song Jin''s hand, "Madam, do you suspect someone is coming for me?"
"It''s not doubtful, it''s confirmed."
Song Jin didn''t believe this was a coincidence.
The imperial court always attached great importance to the imperial examination. The streets are frequently patrolled by officers and soldiers, and roads in some important places have been closed.
Candidates need to get the test card today, and then go to Sunchon Gongyuan on the next day under the guidance of the master who will take the test. Candidates can only enter the examination room after their identity has been verified.
After Qin Chi arrived in the capital, he never left home.
Today is the first time to go out.
He didn''t expect that someone would still be following him despite being so low-key.
Song Jin looked at Qin Chi complicatedly.
How much is this person hated in the Imperial College?
"Madam, can you please stop looking at me like that? It makes me feel bad." Qin Chi said half-jokingly.
Song Jin looked away in embarrassment, "You can take the exam in peace. Uncle Li and I will investigate the outside matters."
"Well, I feel relieved to have a wife."
Qin Chi''s tone was natural, which made Song Jin''s ears itch slightly.
Until the person is sent to the location.
Qin Chi got off the carriage.
There were officers and soldiers blocking the road, and even the carriage could not pass.
Qin Chi identified the candidate and the officers and soldiers let him go. Not long after he entered, he saw an acquaintance who was waving to him.
"Brother Qi''an!" Lu Yanji shouted.
Next to Lu Yanji, stood Qin Mingsong, who was a very talented person.
Lu Yanji came to the capital last year. Qin Chi wanted to stay in Yi County to spend the New Year with his family.
Qin Mingsong asked: "When did Dalang arrive? I went to see you on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and the concierge said you haven''t arrived in the capital yet."
"The roads are difficult in winter, so we were delayed for a few days." Qin Chi explained simply, and then he started to ask, "Have you received your examination license? I haven''t received it yet."
"Then go quickly." Lu Yanji urged.
Two people have already received it. Seeing this, Qin Chi went to line up first.
More than 10,000 candidates gathered together, and many candidates felt uncertain. You should know that there are not many places admitted for each general examination, usually only about 300.
After verifying his true identity.
Then go through a strict body search.
It''s really very strict.
In such a cold weather, candidates have to work in pairs, enter a temporary shed, then take off their clothes and hand them over to an officer or soldier for inspection.
Another officer and soldier wanted to check whether there were any writing on the candidate''s body, even the armpits and inner thighs.
After the previous exams, Qin Chi was relatively calm. After entering the venue, you will find your own room.
I''m very lucky, it''s not a bad name.
After he finished cleaning the room, it didn''t take long for the pens, inks, paper and inkstones to be laid out.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The exam also started.
First, a government official came over holding a wooden sign. The first test is about policy theory and test poems.
Qin Chi raised his head and quickly copied down the test questions on the wooden sign, and then read them carefully after he finished copying them.
The content of the comprehensive examination is similar to that of the provincial examination. It still tests the Four Books and Five Classics, policy questions and poems, but it is more difficult and the requirements are stricter.
The examination questions will be reviewed and approved by the emperor himself.
to ensure fairness and authority.
After each exam, the test papers are sealed and numbered by the examiner, and then marked by another group of examiners to ensure fairness.
It''s ugly time, Qin Chi is immersed in the exam.
Song Jin was still awake outside.
The owner of the oxcart is an old farmer who has been detained by the secret guards. No matter how he is interrogated, it is an accident that he will be killed. Even if Lao Li used torture, he could not make the other party relent.
Song Jin put his hands in his sleeves.
She watched the whole process quietly, saying nothing. In fact, everyone almost forgot about her existence.
"Uncle Li, there is no need for further interrogation."
Song Jin suddenly spoke.
This silenced the room.
There was a brazier in the interrogation room, which was very bright even at night. The expressions on everyone''s faces are clearly illuminated.
Old Li Tou was surprised, "Madam, there must be someone behind him. I don''t believe we can''t pry his mouth open."
"Okay, he would rather die than say anything. Either it was an accident, or he was threatened and couldn''t say anything. Is there anything more important than his life?" Song Jin seemed to speak carelessly, but paid attention to the old man''s reaction.
Old Li Tou cooperated: "I am familiar with this person. I will send someone to look for him at his house. If there is no one there, he is probably under control. If there is someone, I will catch him. He dares to harm my young master, ha..."
The old man finally showed anxiety on his face.
Song Jin could guess from the old man''s reaction that the only person who could make him die rather than speak out was his relatives.
During the day, the identity of the old man has been found out, and people have been sent out of the city to find his family. It''s just that the time is unlucky, it''s midnight when I get back, and the city gate must have been closed.
We''ll find out tomorrow.
Song Jin turned around and left the temporary interrogation room.
Lao Litou did not continue the trial.
Only one person is left here to watch.
Song Jin went back to the dormitory and took a quick nap.
When he woke up the next day, Lao Li Tou had already found out the truth. The secret guard brought back the old man''s family, and the old man finally revealed the person who instigated them.
Old Li Tou said: "This family is a tenant of Mrs. Yuan''s dowry farm. The day before yesterday, a nanny came to his house and asked him to do this. If he doesn''t do it, his family will be kicked out of the farm."
"How stupid."
Song Jin cursed in a low voice.
Old Li Tou said again: "This matter has nothing to do with Mrs. Yuan."
Therefore, Mrs. Yuan is really stupid.
Persimmons are specially selected to be soft for pinching.
In Mrs. Yuan''s eyes, Qin Chi is undoubtedly a soft persimmon.
