Jiang Cheng didn't know that when he was laughing, Ganlu beside him had retreated far away.

Ganlu said disdainfully: "You are a bit vulgar."

She stretched out her hand.

"Give me another five taels."

She felt that the money could barely heal the hurt.

Jiang Cheng touched his increasingly weak pockets and asked a soul-searching question:

"Are you a killer organization? Not bandits?"

"On the side, I kill people all the time, and I'm a part-time bandit. It's not shameful to make money."

"Honestly, if you pay me some money, I'll help you kill them all..."

She gestured with her hands under her neck.

It’s a practical solution, but: “I don’t have the money.”

Very well, the plan was aborted.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Who knows? We'll just deal with it as it happens."

The Spring Examination lasted for three days. As the chief examiner, Jiang Cheng should have gone to the Imperial Examination Hall in person and sat in the examination room according to the rules.

But that day, the people from the Ministry of Rites turned the Imperial Examination Hall upside down, but they could not find any trace of Jiang Cheng in the hall.

Yang Kang was still waiting to find someone to slander him.

"Why can't we find him? Can such a big person disappear out of thin air?"

Yang Kang's mouth was burning with anxiety.

A few days ago, I wanted to find someone to scam Jiang Cheng, but Jiang Cheng was sick during those days. He said he was not feeling well and didn't even go out.

Yang Kang didn't find an opportunity for a while and could only wait until he arrived at the examination room.

As the chief examiner, he always has to be present in person.

Who knew he wouldn't be here again today.

How can Jiang Cheng continue to sing if he is not in this play?

So he quickly assigned someone to go out and look for it.

The Imperial Examination Hall was in chaos.

Not far outside the Imperial Examination Hall, a fortune-telling stall was quietly set up.

A table, a chair, a door curtain in front blocking the face, and a sign on the right that reads "Sai Banxian".

"Fortune telling, fortune telling, five cents a divination, you can't ask for nothing."

"It's a future and a marriage."

This is the only way to go to Gongyuan.

At daybreak, many candidates who were going to Beijing to take the imperial examinations gathered here. The noise of setting up stalls attracted many people's attention.

But most people just ignore it.

A small number of people will stop and watch.

A short, fat, squat man came over.

He also looks like a candidate.

He sat down on the stool: "Are you really that accurate?"

"I told you not to ask for money."

The fat man rubbed his hands and said, "Then give me five cents."

The person who was crossing his legs under the curtain finally moved.

He changed his lazy sitting posture and picked up the cup in front of him with his hands.

I heard a crackling sound and someone was mumbling something.

The fat man was a little confused when he heard the voice: "Master, are you telling fortunes with that voice? Why does it sound like you are rolling dice to me?"

The figure under the curtain paused for a moment, then returned to normal: "How dare you question me? I curse you to be unable to poop."

The fat man was frightened by the harsh words.

"No, no, Great Immortal, please continue to calculate whether I can pass the exam."

"Since you sincerely admit your mistake, I will forgive you."

Gu under the curtain slammed hard on the table with overwhelming force.

The people inside kept shaking their heads: "Not good, not good."

The fat man's heart skipped a beat.

It stands to reason that setting up a stall in this place is a special time.

When people want to have their fortune told, of course they just want to hear some auspicious words to cheer themselves up.

If someone is more sensible, of course they would say only good things. It was the first time that Fatty heard someone say something bad directly.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"What's wrong?"

The person behind the curtain shook his head and sighed.

"I calculated that you would have a disaster when you were over a hundred years old."

The fat man blew his beard and glared, and immediately wanted to overturn the table.

"What happened? Someone dug up my grave?"

What kind of person are you? You speak so illogically, no wonder you have no business.

Jiang Cheng looked at him and sneered.

"No, the evidence of your cheating was taken for exhibition."

The fat man was stunned.

How did he know?

Before he could react, two people rushed out from nowhere and tied his hands behind his back.

"Wait. This is a misunderstanding. I didn't cheat!"

As a result, the two men didn't listen to what he said at all and searched him immediately.

Two people held the fat man up in the air and shook him.

It's like carrying a sack.

With a "paji" sound, a small book not even as big as a palm fell out of the fat man's arms.

The candidates who were just passing by stopped to watch.

Jiang Cheng walked out from behind the curtain and picked up the items dropped by the fat man.

When I opened it, I saw that it was filled with handwritten text.

Jiang Cheng waved his hand and said, "Take him away."

The two soldiers carried the fat man away.

"This is the fourth person to be arrested today."

757 was speechless: [How did you fall for such an obvious scam? ]

Jiang Cheng shook his head and looked at the evidence he had found:

"This is called a targeted strategy of finding someone. Because I cheated, I felt uneasy inside, and tried to hear some auspicious words to alleviate my anxiety."

"Gamblers' weaknesses have always been obvious."

The dog was sneaking around, touching here and there, looking around as if he was afraid that others didn't know that he had hidden something.

The four words "stealing and cheating" express it vividly.

Yang Kang was already furious in the Imperial Examination Hall.

"What did you say? Our people were sent to Dali Temple by Jiangcheng?"

Xu Wen, a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue, replied tremblingly.

"Yes, sir, Jiang Cheng is really weird. He has already captured people before they even entered the tribute hall."

Yang Kang was so angry.

Jiang Cheng walked in with his men outside the door.

And gave Yang Kang a kind smile.

"Hey, sir Yang, have you had breakfast?"

Yang Kang was so frightened by the sudden appearance of Jiang Cheng that his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, the doctor from the Ministry of Revenue helped him up.

"No... not yet... hehe."

It is said that you should not talk about people behind their backs, but now you have revealed the real culprit.

Jiang Cheng said as if he didn't see anything:

"I recommend you to eat the dumplings at the west end of the city. They have thin skin and big fillings, and they leave a lingering fragrance in your mouth."

Beads of sweat appeared on Yang Kang's forehead.

How does he know that the people I’m looking for are from the west of the city?

Did he do this accidentally or on purpose?

"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Yang Kang didn't dare to stay any longer, even though he was the Minister of Revenue and could only watch from the side.

But what is more important now is to deal with the four people from Dali Temple.

Jiang Cheng had no intention of keeping him.

He bowed and escorted the person out of the examination hall.

With Yang Kang's withdrawal, Jiang Cheng was no longer constrained in the Imperial Examination Hall.

He dealt with some hidden dangers left by Yang Kang in a swift and decisive manner.

It even scared other people so much that they dared not act rashly.

For fear of any accidents, Jiang Cheng stayed in the Imperial Examination Hall for three consecutive days.

When the exam was over, it was already midnight when Jiang Cheng returned home.

The curfew in the Dayu Dynasty was around 10 o'clock in modern times, and there was no one on the streets.

The wind blew and the clouds blocked the moonlight.

The sound of swords and knives cut through Jiang Cheng's eardrums, and the sound of sharp blades breaking through the air tore through the silence of the night.

Jiang Cheng turned around and saw a man in black stabbing towards his eyes with a sword.
