Chapter 167 Fraudulent Means

Zhang Penghong has been working in Jiangnan for a long time and has also tried several cases in Jiangnan. He is well aware of the situation in Jiangnan. Jiangnan is not only rich, but also has many factions in the officialdom. All the people have set up large numbers of people in Jiangnan. This is the case with the prince who has formed a party, the prince who has not formed a party, the prince who has Iron Hat and the relatives of the royal family. The members have more or less backgrounds behind them.

Hearing that the case was very complicated and there were many officials involved in the case, he felt upset. If the Fourteenth Master returned to the capital, he would be worried that he would not be able to bear it. He knew that Yinzhen could not stay in Yangzhou for a long time, so he said goodbye to Yinzhen and hurriedly summoned the Governor of Liangjiang, Governor of Liangjiang, Zhang Boxing, the Governor of Jiangsu, and Liang Shixun, the Governor of Anhui. [The latest updates are all available in the search.]

Zhang Penghong not only had the highest official title, but also was the minister of Shangshu and the presiding trial of the Jiangnan scientific examination case ordered by Kangxi. The three of Gali were naturally the main ones. As soon as the three arrived, Zhang Penghong said, "The provincial examination and the imperial examination were all selected by the state. Jiangnan's literary style was simple and talented. The court has always attached great importance to it. The fraud case in Jiangnan's provincial examination has seriously damaged the prestige of the imperial court in Jiangnan. It is a rare case in the imperial examination for 50 years. After hearing the report, the emperor was extremely angry and anxious. He tried to calm the anger and soothe the people's hearts. He was especially aimed at Yangzhou to try this case, in order to close the case from rigorously to quickly.

It has been two months since the scientific investigation case broke out. Since I have arrived in Yangzhou, I should not delay any further. There are many people involved in this case. Can all the criminals involved be discharged to Yangzhou?"

Gali bowed and replied, "When returning to Zhangzhongtang, all the criminals have been detained in Yangzhou Prefecture School and Prison."

Zhang Penghong nodded slightly before pondering: "The incident happened because among the students on the list, the children of the salt merchants and the wealthy officials and nobles reached 40, accounting for 20%. I think, do you have any objections to the re-examination first?"

When they heard that the re-examination was about to be held, the three of them were stunned. It seemed that Zhang Zhongtang was going to make a big move and thoroughly investigate the case. Jiangsu Governor Zhang Boxing and Zhang Penghong had always had a good relationship, and he was also most disgusted. He hated these fraudulent and personal actions and said first: "What Zhang Zhongtang said is very, no re-examination is not enough to calm the public's anger, not enough to demonstrate the fairness of the court, and not enough to intimidate those dirty officials."

Liang Shixun hesitated for a moment before he hesitating and said, "Zhang Zhongtang, if this happens, it will be a time to delay."

"If you don't have to re-examination, how many students have committed corruption? How can you thoroughly investigate this case?" Zhang Penghong said slowly: "The fraud of students is the source of this case. Re-examination and strict investigation. More than 40 life members who are suspected of fraud are Jiangning, Zhenjiang, Suzhou, Yangzhou, Tongzhou, and several prefectures, Kuma and Clippers reported, and it will not be delayed. A single member of the crowd gathers together in Yangzhou for five days. If the outdated one, the fame and reputation will be eliminated, and the crimes and responsibilities will be corrected. The recommended local officials will be investigated together."

Seeing that Zhang Penghong was determined to re-examination, the time limit was tight and the punishment was severe, the three of them stopped talking and stood up and bowed, "Respect Zhang Zhongtang Jun Order."

With the issuance of this order, Yangzhou became lively immediately. Fast horses and fast ships rushed out frequently. The scholars, gentry and people in Yangzhou applauded, while the wealthy salt merchants and the families of officials were full of worries.

Yangzhou, Fuxue.

The chief examiner, deputy examiner of Jiangnan Science Examination, suspected of participating in fraud, all officials of all major and large were detained here, waiting for the trial of the case. Although it was called detention, the treatment was quite relaxed, the food was good, and I couldn't help but be able to leave the school. Although the officials were uneasy, they were not panic.

However, as soon as Zhang Penghong arrived in Yangzhou, the situation changed. The brigade of Goshha and the yamen runners entered the palace school and locked the officials in separate rooms. One by one, they were called out to ask questions. The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the officials who had a ghost were even more anxious all day long.

Zhang Penghui not only detained a group of officials involved in the case separately, but even the servants who followed these officials to Yangzhou strictly controlled the family members and servants who were not allowed to go out or spread news. The atmosphere in the entire Yangzhou city immediately became solemn.

Yangzhou City, Fuchun Garden.

After Yinzhen explained the matters clearly, he became idle, so he called Ding Erjian and Wu Mingjun over. After the two of them met, he asked with a smile: "You two have also passed the county, government, college, and provincial examinations all the way. You should have heard of the fraud in the imperial examinations, can you be familiar with the inside story?"

Ding Erjian bowed and said, "Return to the prince, the fraud in the imperial examination field has a long history. Our dynasty has established the most detailed and the punishment is the strictest. However, various frauds cannot be banned. Instead, they are endless and more intense. The methods are varied, such as asking for personal gain, buying with gambles, secretly passing the joints, carrying them into the examination, passing them in the field, replacing Qian with a gun, impersonating the exam, impersonating the exam, hiding the exam, cutting and changing the exam paper, writing and revising the exam, leaking the exam questions, plagiarizing the exam, and making trouble. There are countless."

After hearing Ding Erjian reported so many fraudulent methods in one breath, Yinzhen couldn't help but gasp. College entrance examination fraud is really a slim comparison with the fraud in the science exam. These fraudulent methods are summarized in a very concise and concise way. You will know what's going on at the first glance. He pondered a little, and then asked: "What do you think about the fraud case in Jiangnan Provincial Examination in this subject?"

Ding Erjian said: "There have always been cheating in the field, but it is just a big or small. Today, they are too brave and do it too obvious. Wu Mi, Cheng Guangkui, Xu Zongshi, Yu Jizu, Ma Shilong and others are just people who are very knowledgeable about literature and writing. They are actually in high school, which naturally arouses public anger. Judging from the situation of these people, it is very likely that they will bribe the examiner, and then change the test papers and write and revise them."

Wu Mingjun pondered, "Prince, students believe that the fraud case in this subject is very likely to be a huge case. The scoring procedures for the provincial examination are very strict. If you want to pass the list, you can only change the test papers and write and rewrite the test papers. It is even more difficult to bribe the examiner. The chief examiner, the house officer, the internal supervisor, and the internal manager must be in charge of the work. In addition to the chief examiner, most of the other officials are temporarily transferred from the two provinces and prefectures and counties. Some of these local officials are moved by money, some are entrusted by others, and some are suppressed by the superiors. All the situations are extremely complicated. If you want to make a decision in the first trial, you must have thunderous means."

When Yinzhen heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Wu Mingjun. This person didn't talk much and seemed dull, but he could hit the pros and cons by saying something. It was a character.

The more than 40-year-olds suspected of fraud were all rich salt merchants, and the officials were prominent children, all living in the prefectures of various prefectures. When they received the fast horse and the fast ships reported that although they were frightened and nervous, no one dared to resist the order, they all arrived in Yangzhou on time.

On the morning of August 1st of November, the re-examination was held at Yangzhou Prefecture School.

Zhang Penghong personally gave the questions. In order to prevent fraud, the examination room was tightly guarded and soldiers were closely monitored by the surroundings. The candidates were all rich and arrogant and casual on weekdays. They had never experienced such a scene of solemn death. They were all worried and could not write. After the exam one day, eight people handed in the blank papers. After the exam, only twelve passed the exam.

As soon as the result came out, the officials in the examination room couldn't help but look at each other. Liang Shixun stood up and bowed, "Zhang Zhongtang, it seems that this re-examination is quite unfair. In this severe atmosphere, these students have tens of talents and can only show three points."

Zhang Pengheng glanced at him and then slowly said, "The so-called qualified ones are just smooth writing and can express their meaning. There are only three or four people. If Lord Liang has any opinions, he can take a look at the fall script one by one. There are many typos and yelling people." Speaking of this, he raised his voice and said angrily: "It is a slight silly thing to say, it is also a compliment to them. Such articles can also be listed. I have to admire you - bold."

When he heard that Zhang Penghong even had swear words, the officials were immediately silent. Liang Shixun also sat back embarrassedly. When Yinzhen came out, he had a lot of pink on his face and looked pale. He had the most noble status and sat upright alone in the last case. Seeing this, he picked up a pen and wrote a note and sent it to Zhang Penghong.

After Zhang Penghong looked at it, he said to the twelve qualified students: "You are the youngest, and you are twenty-eight. You should have already started a family. Write down the names of your own houses, the birth dates and ages of your children, and check them."

When they heard Zhang Penghong's words, they were stunned and dazed. Both of them were gunmen. Although they were very clear about the situation of the person they replaced, they did not expect that they would investigate in this way. The names of women from wealthy families would generally not be told to others. Only their very close family members knew it, and they rarely called names on weekdays.

When the officials saw this situation, they all understood it. Many officials lowered their heads and laughed secretly. The Fourteenth Master was really crazy and even came up with such an incredible way to investigate the impostor.

Gary, the governor of Liangjiang, was very embarrassed and only twelve qualified people. There were still two of them who were impostors. He slapped the show and shouted, "Come on, take these two impostors forward."

Immediately, four yamen runners rushed forward, and they took two lost gunmen to the hall and knelt down.

Gali asked angrily, "The county examination, government examination, college examination, and provincial examination all the way, all five people have to be guaranteed. They have to be recommended by the magistrate. They must be named after entering the venue. After the exam, they must fill in their resumes. How did you two come by impersonating the name? From the actual tricks."

As a result, the explanation of the two impostors made a group of officials lose their voices. Both of them came from the county, government, college, and provincial examinations, and were all the way. They were one-stop service. The two were average in their studies, and they had their own family management points every time they were exams, and the treatment was very generous. The two were devoted and willing to be gunmen.
