Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back

Yun Zhenzhen just stood in front of the door. Her voice was not loud, but it clearly penetrated everyone's ears.

The yamen runners present had seen many nobles, but this was the first time they felt a sense of oppression in her words.

He unconsciously weighed the brocade bag in his hand. It was heavy and should be something like a seal. This thing is a symbol of status.

The yamen runner was in a state of confusion, but in the end he didn't dare to delay any longer and ran inside with the things.

At this time, the candidates entered the venue in batches, and the examiners were still checking the cubicles in the backyard. The governor was the chief examiner and only needed to sit in the chair and make plans.

At this moment, a yamen runner hurried in and bowed, "Your Excellency, there is a woman outside the examination hall who said she has something important to see you about. This is her token, please take a look."

The lawyer at the side immediately walked over and presented the things.

Inside an exquisite purse was a seal wrapped in yellow cloth. The governor carefully took the thing out and opened it. He saw the words "Ruyi Anren Seal" written in large characters on it.

Could it be that the person outside is Ruyi'an?

The governor was a little surprised.

Although Ruyi'anren's official rank was two levels lower than hers, she was promoted from the seventh rank to the sixth rank in just half a year. You know, many people cannot reach this position in their entire lives.

Ruyi'an is a talented person with a promising future. It is necessary to make friends with her.

Thinking of this, the governor stood up and walked out the door.

As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw Yun Zhenzhen standing at the fence at the door.

Yun Zhenzhen, who was standing by, also saw the Governor and immediately knelt down to salute: "I am Yun Zhenzhen, your humble servant, and I pay my respects to you, Your Excellency the Governor!"

"This is not the first time we have met, so there is no need for you to be so polite, Ms. Ruyi." The governor helped her up in the air and then walked forward.

"I'm here at a critical juncture in the exam. You asked someone to let me see you, but what's the important matter?"

"I beg your Excellency to forgive me for coming uninvited. However, this matter is extremely important. I beg you to uphold justice for the student." Yun Zhenzhen still bowed her head respectfully, but her voice was resounding: "Wang Ye, that student is from Yunding County. He achieved a good result of third place in the first exam. Unless there are any unexpected events, he will also be on the list for the second exam. Therefore, there is no point in cheating. Even if he didn't make the list due to a mistake, there is no exam yet. How can he predict the future? Cheating is very risky. He clearly has a bright future. There is really no need to resort to such a desperate measure. It is obvious that someone is trying to frame him."

The servant who had been following behind him saw this and immediately knelt forward: "Please, sir, please help my young master. He has always been a top student since he was young. He would definitely not cheat. He also has his own pride. I hope you can clear our name..."

At this moment, the governor was still confused and had no idea what was going on.

He turned and looked at the legal advisor behind him. The legal advisor nodded sensibly. He then went to the backyard to ask the relevant personnel. He quickly understood the whole story. Then he returned to the governor and told him the whole story.

After hearing what he said, the governor's eyes narrowed slightly.

Wang Ye... This name sounded very familiar to him. He should be a relatively outstanding student in Xingyang Academy. Moreover, his father was a famous wealthy businessman nearby and had done a lot of good things for the court.

Considering that he got third place in the first exam, and the evaluation of him by everyone in the academy in the past, I think the result should be true.

Moreover, this incident had already happened during the exam, and Ruyi Anren personally came forward to request a thorough investigation, so he could not ignore it.

The governor turned to look at the advisor and asked, "How long until today's exam starts?"

The master replied respectfully, "There is still a quarter of an hour until the official exam."

"That's plenty of time." Yun Zhenzhen immediately analyzed the details. "As long as we find that so-called cheat sheet and compare it with Wang Ye's, if the handwriting is different, then he must have been framed. Then compare it with the other people in the exam room. If we can find an identical copy, then the truth will be even clearer."

The governor nodded thoughtfully.

now.

Inside the examination room, all candidates have taken their seats, waiting for the test papers to be distributed.

At this moment, the examiners handed out blank papers, one for each person.

This process was not included last time. When I asked previous candidates, I had not heard of this step either. This made the candidates present very confused.

"Don't panic, everyone. This is just a small test from us," one of the examiners said softly. "Everyone here will definitely pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi in the future. Some may even take first place in the imperial examination. Before you reach that position, I hope you can leave behind your calligraphy for us to treasure. Each of you can write a few words on a piece of paper. Anything is fine."

“I hope everyone can write with both hands at the same time, which will also make it easier for us to frame it.”

Upon hearing this, all the candidates instantly became alert.

After they pass the imperial examination and become Jinshi, this piece of paper might be displayed in front of everyone and viewed by scholars all over the world. This would be an honor for everyone present.

Even if not, it is a blessing to be able to obtain the collection of you gentlemen.

Thinking of sitting here, some people picked up their brushes and couldn't wait to write the first word on the paper.

A few words were written in an instant, and all the papers were collected in an orderly manner and quickly delivered to the governor.

The other examiners were all gathered in the room, including Yun Zhenzhen. Everyone spread out their papers and compared them with the cheat sheet.

The cheat sheet was written on a palm-sized piece of paper. It was filled with densely packed words and the handwriting was a bit sloppy. It was obvious that the person who wrote it was a little panicked at the time.

Even so, one can still see her beauty, after all, she is someone who can pass the college entrance examination.

After everyone had memorized the original handwriting, they began to check the handwriting submitted by the candidates one by one. The governor compared Wang Ye's handwriting with that on the cheat sheet. It was obvious that they were not written by the same person.

If that's the case, then most of his suspicion can be eliminated.

After a while, when most of the obviously different handwritings were eliminated, only the last four with somewhat similar handwritings remained.

The governor looked at Yun Zhenzhen and said, "Why do you think the handwriting on these pages is similar to the one on the cheat sheet? We can't really tell the difference, but it's obvious that this person wrote with his left hand."
