Quan Shufang saw that Li Rizhi suddenly came, and he was very surprised and said, "Brother Li, why are you here? What is the result of the re-examination?"

Li Ri knew, "There hasn't been a result yet, how can it be so fast! Brother Quan, did you see Zhao Jian? He didn't even attend the re-examination that day. This is a pity. Did something happen to him? "

Quan Shufang was shocked when he heard this and said, "Brother Zhao didn't go to the re-examination? How is this possible!"

They all came to Chang'an from Zhengzhou to work hard. What was they studying hard for is to pass the science exam and enter the career of officialdom from then on, and they will be prosperous and prosperous, and glorious, but they won't take half of the exam. Why is this? This is really hard to understand!

Li Rizhiqi said, "Brother Quan, don't you live in the same room with him? Why don't you know why he didn't go?"

Quan Shufang was excited and shook his head and said, "That day, Brother Zhao said that he was very good at the exam and probably could pass, so he had to borrow money from his relatives' house. First, he was to pay me back the money, and second, he would have to pay some expenses after he passed the imperial examination, so he went to his relatives' house in Liyang. However, after he left, he never came back. That day we went to Furonglou for a drink, but he didn't come, but I didn't expect that he didn't go to the re-examination either. Something must have happened!"

"Can it be that something happened to happen on the way to Liyang County and encountered a robbery?" Fu Guibao shouted.

Cheng Zike said, "Is the road so unsafe now? This is the Jingji area. How far is Liyang from Chang'an? If you get fast, you can go back and forth that day!"

Li Rizhi frowned and thought for a while, saying, "No matter what, Brother Zhao did not participate in the re-examination. In addition to an accident, he suddenly had an acute illness or was seriously injured. If it weren't for such a serious matter, it was almost impossible for him to delay the re-examination. We have to find him, so why not go to Liyang!"

Quan Shufang thought for a while and nodded, "No, I should go to Liyang. I have a horse too. Let's go together!"

Everyone left the Taoist temple and rushed to Liyang. On the way, Li Rizhi asked, "Brother Quan, when are you planning to return to Zhengzhou?"

Quan Shufang said, "I won't go back for the time being. I want to find a job in Chang'an, and then wait until I finish the exam. Otherwise, I will go home and then go back to the subject. It will take a lot of time on the road alone, so I simply don't go back and stay in Chang'an. Anyway, I'm quite used to living in the Taoist temple!"

Quan Shufang is much easier to get along with than when he was in Zhengzhou. When he was in Zhengzhou, he was a famous student in Zhengzhou, so he was inevitably a little arrogant. However, after coming to Chang'an, he realized that the world was so great that a famous scholar like him was really nothing here.

After being hit, people naturally become more mature, so they no longer looked like they were when they first came out of Zhengzhou. They were willing to talk to others and were willing to help others.

Li Ri knew, “Have Brother Quan found a job?”

"Not yet. It's not easy to find a satisfactory job in Chang'an. I searched for two days and found that it was either low money or not enough for life, or it was unstable and some fragmentary jobs. So I was very worried. I found that after studying for more than ten years, I was not as comfortable as a monk in the temple!" Quan Shufang said with a deep impression on himself.

Li Ri knew, "If Brother Quan does not abandon you, I can introduce you to the county government office in Chang'an County to help. Although you cannot be a formal clerk, the money you earn is enough to live and you can gain a lot of experience. You can also review your homework in your spare time so that you can welcome the next scientific exam!"

Quan Shufang's eyes lit up when he heard this. He said, "That's great. Thank you Brother Li for your help. I'm so grateful!"

Li Rizhi smiled and said, "Brother Quan is welcome!"

When he was dealing with the business affairs with Ji Datong some time ago, he asked if he could go to the yamen to help. He thought that if he failed the exam, then he would be a clerk in Chang'an County. He had this idea at that time.

Ji Datong said this was simple, just talk to the county magistrate Peng Ji. Chang'an County manages half of Chang'an City, a county with hundreds of thousands of people. There is always a shortage of people in the yamen. It is not impossible to have a position with a position, it is all a waste, but there is no problem with the non-staff clerk who receives a salary.

Li Rizhi felt that he could pass the exam, so the good thing he would make a living in Chang'an County Government is to give it to Quanshu, which is also a match for everyone. This opportunity is extremely precious to Quanshu, so I am sincerely grateful.

They ran on the road and arrived in Liyang County soon after. The town was not big. After entering the city, they wanted to find someone named Zhao, but Li Rizhi was caught.

Li Ri knew, "If Zhao Jian happened in Liyang, then we can go to the county government to inquire. If we can't inquire, then it's not too late to find a way to find a wealthy family named Zhao, so there is no need to look for it immediately!"

When Quan Shufang heard this, he was very impressed. He did not expect that Li Rizhi could pass the Ministry of Rites but could not pass it. This means that Li Rizhi was not based on luck, but he was better than himself!

Everyone immediately went to the county government again and asked the toll guard the gate. It was so easy to inquire. They only gave the toll a little money, and the toll said everything they did, and they said it very in detail.

After hearing this, Li Rizhi was shocked. Although he guessed that Zhao Jian might have an accident, he did not expect that he was dead. This was the worst result among all the results. If a person dies, there will be nothing left. Why can’t he even get a Jinshi exam? He can’t even go back to his home!

Li Rizhi said anxiously, "This officer, are you sure that the man is called Zhao Jian? Is he a scholar from Zhengzhou?"

The toll nodded first, then shook his head, and said, "It's certain that you call Zhao Jian. This is recognized by Zhao Tiegen. He is a relative of his family. I don't know if he came from Zhengzhou. Anyway, he went to Chang'an to take the scientific examination. Judging from what Zhao Tiegen said, Zhao Jian did a good job in the exam and probably won!"

This is basically Zhao Jian. Li Rizhi quickly asked Zhao Tiegen's address and rushed over with Fu Guibao and the others.

When he arrived at the Zhao family, the servant opened the door. After inquiring, he realized that Zhao Tiegen had gone to Beijing to sue and sued him higher than his level, but the servant didn't know which yamen they went to, because their master Zhao Tiegen didn't know, so he went to Beijing to sue.

Zhao Jian's body was still in the side yard. Li Rizhi revealed his identity and was a fellow villager of Zhao Jian. He wanted to see the remains. The servants believed him. After all, no one pretended to be a fellow villager in order to take a look at the corpse and lead them to see Zhao Jian's body that had been put in the coffin.

After opening the coffin, Li Rizhi looked at Zhao Jian inside and saw that Zhao Jian had a wound on his face, but his expression was normal. He turned around and the servant of the Zhao family said, "Have you asked someone to sort out his appearance specifically for Mr. Zhao?"

Generally speaking, people will be very painful when they are dying, and their expressions and body will be distorted. Before putting them in the coffin, in order to show respect for the deceased, special people will be invited to organize the corpse so that the expressions should be as normal as possible, and the posture of the body is also normal. If the expressions and postures of the corpse can be made, just like normal people when they sleep, that is the best.

The servant nodded and said, "When Mr. Li said, I have found someone to sort it out. However, there is a special record of autopsy in the county government. Otherwise, the yamen would not let us carry the body of the nephew back!"

Li Rizhi said, thinking, "Then I can't check the records for the time being. I have to wait until I find Zhao Tiegen."

All Shu Fang's tears fell down on the side. After all, he lived with Zhao Jian for a long time. Seeing Zhao Jian dead and lying in the coffin, how could he not be sad?

Fu Guibao and Cheng Zizai both came to watch, and even Chen Yingying came to see it. Fu Guibao said, "Brother Zhao's face is injured. This is because he was beaten to death!"

The servant sighed. If Zhao Jian had not been beaten to death or died on the roadside, then his master would not have been so angry. He risked offending the county magistrate and went to Chang'an to sue him.

Li Rizhi knew that the autopsy could not be examined now, and he would not allow the servant to move the body. If it were Zhao Tiegen here, it would be better to say that in order to avenge Zhao Jian, the body would of course be carefully examined again, but the servant was afraid of the trouble, so he would not let him move the body at all.

Li Ri knew, "What is your master's appearance? We plan to go back to Chang'an to find him. It's easy to find him if you know his appearance."

The servant hurriedly invited them back to the main hall, showed them the portrait of Zhang Zhao Tiegen, and then told them the mark of his carriage. Li Rizhi wrote them down one by one, then said goodbye and went out, and returned to Chang'an.

On the way, Fu Guibao said, "I didn't expect Brother Zhao to be killed. He was a scholar who entered the re-examination. He was killed during the examination. Is this going to alarm the emperor?"

If Zhao Jian did not pass the re-examination, then his murder may not alarm too many people. He will only treat it as an ordinary case. Zhao Jian passed the re-examination and was already half a Jinshi, so his identity would be different. His murder will definitely be taken seriously, and it will also be reported to the emperor by the Shangshu Province.

Li Rizhi didn't know what would happen, he said, "No matter what, we have to avenge Brother Zhao, and this is also the right thing for friends!"

Everyone nodded together and rushed back to Chang'an. After entering the city, they immediately rushed to the Chang'an County Yamen. Li Ri knew about other places, but he was too familiar with the Chang'an County Yamen. He had to come here every day some time ago and followed Ji Datong to handle the affairs of the market.

Li Rizhi entered the county yard and found a clerk he knew. He wanted to ask the clerk to help him find out where Zhao Tiegen went to complain. There were so many yamen in Chang'an City, so he couldn't look for them one by one!

The clerk was very willing to help, and he said, "If the Zhao Tiegen you mentioned was confused, then he might go to the Ministry of Justice. If he was not confused, he would ask someone for information first, and then he would go to Yongzhou Prefecture. Of course, even if he was confused and went to the Ministry of Justice, he would have to be driven out, so he would still be in Yongzhou Prefecture now!"

After hearing this, Li Rizhi said, "I probably will be in Yongzhou Prefecture, but I can't get in there, so I want to ask my brother to take me to see!"

The clerk smiled and said, "That's true, then I'll accompany you!"

This clerk is also good at being a good person. He knew that Peng Ji was good to Li Rizhi, and Li Rizhi was very likely to be a scholar who passed the imperial examination today. He was very good at getting promoted. He was much faster than others. Ordinary officials could not catch up with him, so Li Rizhi was not a difficult task to do, so he happily agreed.

The Yongzhou Prefecture Yamen is not far from the Chang'an County Yamen. It took a short while to go out. The clerks in the two Yamen are familiar with each other. After all, there are too many opportunities to deal with, and it is impossible to be familiar with them.

The clerk found an acquaintance of his and asked for it. After hearing this, the acquaintance said, "The surname of Zhao is Zhao Tiegen. He has sued him from Liyang, right? Wait for a while, I'll check it out for you!"

An acquaintance entered the yamen and came out after a while, saying, "There is indeed a matter. Our yamen has accepted the case. However, this is a sue for the superiors and he wants to be thirty. You understand the temper of our chief minister!"

In principle, the people who sued the people at the top of the level of sue will definitely not be allowed. At least it was not allowed before Wu Zetian began to eliminate the differences on a large scale. However, there were no strict regulations. It was said that if the people sued the people, what kind of punishment they would have to be given, has not been formulated at this time.

For Yongzhou Prefecture, in this case, it is usually a big thirty board, but if the complaint is true, then you can not fight these thirty boards, that is, you have to wait until the case is almost tried before you decide whether to fight or not. In the early Tang Dynasty, this way of dealing with complaints at the level was relatively humane.

But this chief minister is not good. He has a very bad temper. He doesn't beat the board afterwards. He beat the board in advance. No matter whether there is any reason or not, whoever dares to sue the top level will hit the top thirty first.

The clerk naturally knew the temper of the chief clerk. He grinned and asked, "Have you beaten?"

"I'll fight!"

"How was the fight?"

"After the thirty-four boards, I will just carry them to the clinic. If you want to find him, you have to go to the clinic!"
