Chapter 131 Confirmation
So, the master and the apprentice followed Gao Wen and the two yamen servants out of the house, and behind them followed a group of mothers-in-law and big mothers, which was so large.

There are many good people in the world, especially in ancient times when there was a lack of entertainment.Seeing so many people coming, passers-by thought there was big news to watch and joined in.In just a few steps, the size of the team has doubled, and there is a tendency to gradually expand.

Originally, Daying deployed his men at various street corners to surround Gao Wen's house.Seeing Gao Wen coming out, the policeman was shocked and rushed to meet him, trying to block the criminal's way.But before he got close, he was immediately pushed aside by a wave of people, and his body was covered in the smell of makeup, powder and perfume.

After finally waiting for the crowd to pass, they saw the big eagle and the little eagle, so they had to report urgently with a sullen face: "Master Yun, no, the thief wants to escape, and the subordinates really can't get close to him."

Daying shook his head: "Don't worry, you won't be able to get away. Give me an order, and the people in the other directions will withdraw and follow."

After walking down a street, because there were too many people, I gradually became unable to walk.

Someone was shouting: "Look quickly, this is Gao Wen, the first case in the imperial examination in our government, Mr. Gao, maybe he is the future No. [-] scholar. Mr. Gao, are you polite here?"

After speaking, he saluted Gao Wen, who naturally bowed his hands politely.

Another scholar clasped his hands on the second floor of the nearby restaurant and shouted: "Gao Erzhi, I have seen your papers at the Xuezheng of the Gongyuan before. It is really every word and every word. I am not as good as you. I can be in the same class as you in Chinese. I am honored to be here."

Gao Wen returned the gift, laughed and said, "So it's brother Tongnian, I also congratulate you as a high school scholar. Why, you've received the good news, are you drinking here to celebrate?"

"Exactly." That person also just received the good news, but he was registered as a student in the Gongyuan Academy, and he was here for a drink with a few friends.When I read Gao Wen's first name paper in the Gongyuan earlier, I was really shocked.When these people saw real people, they became interested, so they immediately picked up a jug of wine and shouted: "Brother Erzhi, this is going to the Gongyuan. It's time to take a look. Once you go, you will know that your article is now out of date." How popular is it? I am afraid that the cultural context of my Pingliang Prefecture will grow in your hands. Come, come, have a sip of Zhuangxing wine first."

As he spoke, he threw down the jug.

Gao Wen grabbed it, took a bite, and threw it aside, "Thank you, Brother Nian."

A woman hurriedly picked up the jug, fed the ten-year-old son next to her, and shouted: "Boy, this is the future No. If you eat this wine, you will get that wonderful pen."

Everyone laughed.

Gao Wen has been suffering for the past few months, but today can be regarded as the cloud opening to see the moonlight, and he is so proud that he almost floats in mid-air.

Everything is inferior, only reading is high, the ancients do not deceive me!

This is the case even for Liang Ma Kua Jie, who has won the top prize in high school with the title of Jinshi.

Big Eagle and Little Eagle followed behind, dumbfounded.At this time, they already had some confidence in their hearts. Maybe the serious criminal Gao Wen is really a scholar, and he won the first place in the Pingliang Court Examination this year.At this time, if he stepped forward to take someone out, it would be a huge disturbance.

For a moment, everyone's expressions were heavy.

After walking for a long time, when Gao Wen entered the Tribute Court, and when the onlookers dispersed, the six criminal judges looked at each other, and there was nothing to do.

After a long time, a policeman asked Daying: "Master Yun, what should we do next?"

Kitty Ying turned her nose up angrily: "It's fake, it's fake, it must be the trick of that Gao Wen thief!"

Daying: "Let's go, let's look at the list."

The Gongyuan and the county government are on the same street, and the list is already crowded with scholars looking at the list.

The people in the middle have already received the good news, so they don't use it.Others who didn't read the newspaper still didn't give up and came to see what happened.For a moment, his ears were full of sighs.

Daying and the others squeezed forward, so there was no need to look for it.I saw a big red "Zhong" in the middle of the list, and the circle next to the red was the top three in the exam.Then came the second lap, four to fifteen.Then came the third lap, No.16 to 30.The last lap is when No.[-] arrives.Densely packed, like archery targets.

The word Gao Wen is suddenly the first one in the innermost circle.

"Impossible, impossible!" The eyes of Xiaoying and all the arresters were about to fall to the ground.

Daying grabbed a boy student, "This gentleman, dare to ask if this Gao Wen is from Hancheng?" He was still not sure, there are many people with the same name and surname in the world.The criminal Gao Wenming is from the Hancheng family of Xi'an Prefecture, how could he come to Pingliang to take part in the imperial examination and get the first place.Am I mistaken for the wrong person?
"Bold, who are you, how dare you touch me, let go." The scholar fell in the first place, feeling upset, and threw away the eagle.Contemptuously patted Daying's place where he lived just now, "You can call Gao Erzhi's name, he is a rising star in our Pingliang Prefecture's scholars, and he is likely to be the leader of our school in the future. Why, He is from Hancheng, so he can't come to Pingliang to take the exam? What do you mean by saying that, are you here to find bad luck for us Pingliang people?"

Daying thumped in his heart, thinking to himself: It seems that this Gao Wen is that Gao Wen, I have to ask.

He smiled apologetically and said, "No, that's not what it means. Mr. Gao and I are already acquainted. He is originally from Hancheng. Even if he wants to take the exam, he has to take the exam in Xi'an. Why did you come to Pingliang Mansion?"

"Oh, so that's the case, but I found out about this matter." The scholar sneered: "Gao Erzhi's ancestor was originally in Pingliang Zhuanglang, but later his family suffered a disaster, so he fled to Hancheng However, I own [-] mu of land in Pingliang, and I have a land deed. According to the "Law of the Ming Dynasty", if you have more than [-] mu of ancestral property, you can return to your hometown and settle down. , Gao Erzhi changed back to his hometown, that is not forgetting his origin, isn’t it right? You are from Hancheng, hehe, people in Xi’an Prefecture don’t know talents, it must be that Erzhi has been angry with you a lot, that’s why he got angry Next time I will refer to my place of origin.”

"I also know you Shilin people in Xi'an Prefecture. All of you have eyes higher than the top. It seems that there are no scholars in Shaanxi except Xi'an. People in other places are all idiots. Bah, you are blinded by Gao Erzhi's article. I can't see the benefits. By the way, it must be that you literati look down on each other and are jealous."

As soon as he started to say this, other scholars gathered around one after another, talking about what you said.This scholar thought that he was angry with the scholars in Xi'an Prefecture when he was studying abroad before.But you can study over there, so you can't look down on scholars like us in remote places!

So, after talking for a long time, all the scholars opened the map cannon and began to curse Xi'an scholars.

Literati swearing at mothers is full of tricks and eloquence, Daying Xiaoying and others dare not say more, otherwise I, a Xi'an native, will become a public enemy, and everyone will punish me, so I have to quietly back out.

After squeezed out of the crowd, Daying frowned: "It seems that Gao Wen is Gao Wen, and he won the first place in the Pingliang Mansion Court Examination. I don't know how things turned out like this, but no matter what the officials say, I'm going to be in big trouble, and I'm afraid this errand will lead to setbacks."

Xiaoying said: "Master, my disciples don't understand what you said. He Gao Wen killed people and robbed military funds, which is a crime of violating the laws of the country and beheading. No matter who he is, he is a thief. We are the government, and it is only right and proper for the government to take thieves. From the point of view of the apprentice, there is no need to talk nonsense with him, as soon as he comes out of the Gongyuan, he will directly arrest people and send him back to Xi'an Zhengjing. That's right, he is a scholar, but can he still surpass the national law and the "Law of the Ming Dynasty"?"

One of the arresters said: "Xiaoying, you put it lightly. I suffered under that thief surnamed Gao and lost a tooth. I want him to be brought to justice more than you. But if you arrest people, then That's the bad."

Kitty Hawk was puzzled: "How to say?"

The catcher: "He is a famous scholar. According to the "Law of the Ming Dynasty", if you have a case, you can only use a post to pass it to the Yamen for questioning, and you can't be detained. Moreover, if you go to court, you can't kneel and you can't use torture. Even if you ask the question, if someone is not happy, you can still keep silent, and you have nothing to do with him.”

Kitty Hawk was dumbfounded: "How is this possible, what a strange thing!"

The policeman: "Why is that impossible, Xiaoying? You only know how to arrest criminals in your daily life, but you have never read the "Law of the Ming Dynasty" seriously, and you have never handled a case against a scholar. Naturally, you don't know about this matter. If you don't kneel, you don't need to be punished. That's all. At the most powerful time, scholars with fame and reputation go to the court, and the local academic and political officials get the support of the scholars. Without his nodding, the officials can't ask random questions, and can't detain the prisoner. Even if the prisoner has solid evidence, when the final verdict If you learn from the politicians to die and refuse to remove the prisoner's name, you can't be sentenced."

"Ah, this, this, this, isn't this messing around?" Xiaoying was even more horrified: "Master, is this all true?"

Daying nodded and sighed: "It's all true. Scholars are born to be superior to others. If they win the exam in the future, they will be officials and elders. There is another saying that goes like this: I am the Son of Heaven and the scholar-bureaucrats. Rule the world. Those who rule the world belong to the people of the world. Scholars are scholar-bureaucrats, and the world belongs to them and the emperor. What can you do?"

"Could it be possible not to arrest people?" Xiaoying said angrily: "Could it be possible that we just ran for nothing?"

Daying: "No, since we're here, we still have to bring Gao Wen back to Xi'an, but we can't use force. When Gao Wen comes out, let's follow the procedures. If it doesn't work, we should report to the government and the school officials, and invite them Order Gao Wen to be handed over to us, and take him to Xi'an to be punished and inspected by the Procuratorate."

While talking, a policeman shouted: "Master Yun, Gao Wen has come out."

"Master Yun, what should we do?"
