On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle

When Magistrate Li saw these confessions in the evening, he almost collapsed from anger.

This Yang Ji is really hateful. He actually came up with such despicable means to hinder other people's future.

This is like roasting him over the fire!

The selection of talents for the imperial examination is a national strategy. If such a mistake happened at this time, and if the students reported it to the capital, then he, as the chief examiner, would be in big trouble.

What's more, his current position is a hot commodity and everyone wants to take a bite.

But he couldn't defeat the Yang family. County Magistrate Yang had some in-law relationship with the Fourth Prince's family. If he confronted him now, would he be retaliated by the Fourth Prince?

Li Zhifu paced back and forth anxiously. After a long while, he looked at his trusted aide and said, "Sir, this matter does not involve human lives. How about asking the Yang family to compensate them with some money?"

Lin Chengen disagreed and said, "Sir, why do you have to wade into this muddy water? This was done by Yang Ji. Sir, you are standing up for him. Do you want to anger all the students in the city?"

"You just need to handle this matter impartially. As for the Yang family, you can just send someone to inform them. You can't use your own future to make up for Yang Ji's mistakes, right?"

"As for the Fourth Prince that you are worried about, if you do nothing now, will the Fourth Prince treat you as one of his own and not attack you?"

"Think about it, sir. The petitions for relief relief submitted a few days ago were all suppressed by the higher-ups."

Magistrate Li suddenly realized, yes.

He used to be from the lineage of the crown prince, but later the crown prince was suppressed, and those of them who were branded have been targeted by the fourth prince.

Anyway, there is no room for easing the tension between the two sides, so why should he care?

He took a deep breath, his eyes gradually firmed: "Cheng'en, you are right. I had too many concerns before, and I was distracted for a moment! So..."

The two of them got together and discussed how to deal with the matter afterwards.

Magistrate Li was originally glad that no one was killed in this incident, but he was too happy too early.

When the college entrance examination was over, a total of five people were carried out of the examination room. Two of them were breathing weakly and obviously could not hold on.

Prefect Li learned from Doctor Zheng that these five people started suffering from diarrhea before entering the examination room.

After taking some medicine and fasting for a few days, the diarrhea symptoms gradually eased. Feeling that there was no problem, they took part in the college entrance examination.

On the first day of the college entrance examination, nothing unusual happened to the few people. Until the second day, they drank some raw water, and the temperature in the examination room was too high.

The five people suffered from diarrhea and dehydration. They stayed in the examination room for two days. When they left the examination room, they were already unconscious.

Fortunately, Magistrate Li had been paying attention to the condition of the students in the examination room. When he heard that someone in the examination room had started to suffer from diarrhea again, he immediately asked someone to invite a doctor from the city.

Thanks to the treatment of three doctors, the condition of three of them has improved slightly and they have regained consciousness.

The condition of one of them deteriorated extremely quickly, and before he could be given medicine, he had already stopped breathing.

There is still one person with a weak pulse and the situation is very urgent.

The three doctors no longer had any confidence in being able to save this man, so they asked Doctor Zheng to report the matter to the prefect.

When Magistrate Li heard that someone had died, his mood plummeted to the bottom.

Yang Ji's death was not a pity, but this was under his rule. If something like this happened, he was really worried that it would ignite the anger of the students.

He said anxiously, "Is there no other solution? Just tell me what herbs you need."

Doctor Zheng suggested: "Sir, do you remember Madam Song? She is the one who treated diarrhea with me last time. Her acupuncture skills are very powerful. Maybe you can ask her to try it."

Magistrate Li immediately recalled the woman who had helped him point out the unclean water source last time. Without bothering to ask in detail, he immediately ordered Changqing to invite the person over.

After the people left, the furious Li Zhifu immediately ordered people to arrest Yang Ji.

Originally, he thought that arresting someone outside the examination room would be too conspicuous, and he planned to wait until he returned to his residence before doing it.

He has changed his attention now!

Humph, if you make him uncomfortable, you won’t have an easy life!

---

Today's college entrance examination was over, and Song Xile and his men were waiting outside the examination room early, waiting for Yun You and the others to come out.

When the time came, the door of the examination room was slowly opened, and students came out in twos and threes, carrying their examination baskets.

Song Xile looked in the crowd for a long time but didn't see the person coming. Just when she was wondering, she saw Yang Ji standing in front of Yun You and talking to him arrogantly.

Qian Feng, who was standing aside, was obviously angered by Yang Ji's words. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush forward, but was startled by the police who suddenly rushed out.

He withdrew his hand somewhat awkwardly, still thinking about how to explain.

The officers didn't even look at him, tied up Yang Ji and walked towards the government office.

Yang Ji was suddenly caught and was a little confused for a moment. When he came to his senses, he started cursing in a bluffing manner.

"You damned slave dog, why don't you open your dog eyes and take a good look at who your grandfather is? How dare you arrest me?"

"Do you know who my father is? How dare you treat me like this? Let me go!"

However, the officers turned a deaf ear to his threats and continued to escort Yang Ji towards the government office with expressionless faces.

The students around were attracted by Yang Ji's shouting and cursing, and they all looked at him sideways and talked about it.

"Why was this man arrested?"

"What else can I do? I must have been caught cheating."

"It's what they deserve. People like this should be punished."

“…”

Qian Feng was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him, "This, this, this..."

Chen Yunyou looked at this scene and had some vague guesses in his mind.

At this time, Song Xile came over.

The college entrance examination lasted three days, and the students had to stay in the small examination room for eating, sleeping, and everything else. Song Xile was still a little worried that her husband's body would not be able to cope with it.

Seeing that although he looked a little tired, his complexion was fine, I felt relieved.

Chang'an on the side was not as indifferent as Song Xile. He happily rushed to his young master, took the examination basket from his hand, and kept saying flattering words.

Old Song also stepped forward and patted his son-in-law on the shoulder. "Let's go. You must be tired after three days of exams. If you have anything to say, talk about it when you get home."

As the group was turning around to leave, they met Chang Qing who was returning.

He had just walked halfway when he suddenly remembered that Madam Song's husband was also going to take part in this college entrance examination, and he was afraid that he might still be near the examination room.

He immediately turned back and saw Song Xile and his group in the crowd.

Chang Qing ran to Song Xile and panted, "Madam Song, our master wants to see you. Please follow me."

Song Xile pointed at himself in confusion, "I wonder why you called me?"

Chang Qing deliberately lowered his voice and said, "The student in the field has fainted due to diarrhea. The situation is critical. Madam Song, please help."

Human life is at stake. Song Xile was about to follow Chang Qing, but then he thought of the others, so he turned back and said, "You go back and rest first. I'll go take a look first."

"I'll go with you." After saying that, Chen Yunyou asked Qian Feng and his group to go back first, and he followed.

Seeing Old Song trying to catch up, Qian Feng took the initiative to suggest, "Let's go and take a look too."

Old Song originally wanted to come to pick up his son-in-law, but he didn't pick him up. How could he go back by himself? So he nodded, and the three of them followed him.
