Chapter 514 Form change!
It was a candle that had been burning for half, with some wax oil flowing around the base of the candlestick, but it made Wang Kang feel enlightened!
The tribute court has been closed and it is difficult for outsiders to enter, but it is not really the case!
Some clerks can come in!
For example, those who deliver meals to the invigilators, and those who can really enter the examination room are also those who deliver candles!
The candles used by candidates are provided by the tribute school and are not distributed temporarily.
Instead, it is sent every night because some candidates will also answer the answer at night, but they are not sure how much they can use. So many candidates use a lot.
In order to avoid waste and ensure the need, every evening, a dedicated person will distribute two candles to each candidate!
Of course, if the candidates are not in use enough, they can also apply for additional...
That's it,
This must be the case!
The mao is on this candle, and the answer is hidden inside the candle, wrapped in it, and delivered to the hands when distributing candles to the candidates!
At night, the invigilator will not pay attention. It is normal to light the candle at this time. When the candle is burning, take out the answer.
After cheating, deal with it and the candle burns as usual...
Everything was quite natural, and the cheating was completed without realizing it!
That's it,
Quite simple!
Just under the eyes of everyone, but it was typical dark under the light, no one would pay attention to it, no one would think of it,
Brilliant, extremely brilliant!
"Have you used up your candle?" Wang Kang asked to a candidate beside him.
"No,"
"show me,"
Wang Kang took the candle of the candidate and looked carefully.
This candle is larger than the candles commonly found in previous lives, and the color is also relatively turbid, not a solid color.
At this time, the candles are made of animal oil or vegetable oil. The process is not perfect, not round, and very rough.
Even so, it's already good.
In ancient times, candles were also considered a rare item. Ordinary households used ordinary kerosene lamps.
During the examination, the candles were not provided for a long time, but kerosene lamps were used.
However, kerosene lamps cannot be illuminated and are prone to fire, and accidental fires occur.
So I used candles instead!
This kind of candle will have a odor when it burns, but this way, it meets the conditions for cheating!
Wang Kang held the candle and straightened his thoughts bit by bit, and the entire cheating process was clearly revealed!
The test questions were leaked and a special person gave the answers. In this way, they were sent to the candidates.
The transmission process is the easiest to discover, but this method is also the easiest.
In this way, it becomes the most perfect cheating method!
Even so, it is not easy to complete!
The largest production and production of candles is the Ministry of Industry of the Court, which sells and uses for your own use...
During the scientific examination, all the candles also come from this, and because of the large amount, they are still available exclusively!
In other words, during this period, the Ministry of Industry's wax making workshop specially provided the imperial examination. When making wax, there were already people who put the answers in and formed them during the production!
You also need to separate these candles containing answers and go to the candidate's hands when giving wax.
During this process, many joints need to be opened. If there is a problem with one link, all previous efforts may be wasted, and there is a risk of exposure!
Precision, every link is very precise!
Thinking carefully is terrifying, and the magical powers are vast!
Seeing Wang Kang standing up and not speaking, Wu Zhirong asked curiously: "What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"
“I thought of it,”
This sound also pulled Wang Kang's thoughts back.
"What came to mind?"
"I thought about how they cheated,"
"ah,"
Wu Zhirong asked in surprise: "What is it?"
Wang Kang did not say it, but asked back: "Who is responsible for the distribution of candles for candidates?"
"In previous years, there were dedicated people responsible for it, which was the logistics support. If you ask me what you do, you are the chief officer."
Wang Kang was speechless for a moment. It was true that he was the chief official, but it was impossible to cover everything. Who would have thought that the problem would appear here in advance?
"You mean..."
At this time, Wu Zhirong also reacted, looked at the candle in Wang Kang's hand, and suddenly realized.
“Yes, that’s it,”
Wu Zhirong was so excited that he couldn't control himself.
Wang Kang hurriedly held it down and whispered: "Don't make a sound for the time being,"
Wu Zhirong also understood what Wang Kang meant, took a deep breath and said, "Are you going to dig them all out?"
"right,"
Wang Kang had this idea. Since he had already known all the processes, he could find the responsible officials through this line!
The least doubtful person is,
By this time it was clear.
The two agreed that Wang Kang returned the candle to the candidate, pretended to be fine, and returned to the class room.
This is a place dedicated to the invigilator offices,
Yan Liqun smiled and said, "It turns out that he is young and strong. He has been patrolling and has been circling the entire examination room."
Fang Xiaolian smiled and said, "These candidates will probably scold you to death."
"Don't mention it, the test area is full of the odor of burning candles. The candle made by our Ministry of Industry is not good either,"
"It's great if you have candles, it's also a big expense!"
Wang Kang pretended to be unintentional and asked: "Who is responsible for the distribution of this candle?"
"Oh, it's Mr. Han,"
Mr. Han?
It turned out to be him?
The right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, Han Qinhuan, and Wang Kang had a good impression of him. He was in his forties. At this age, he was quite good at sitting in this position.
Unlike the Left Minister Cao Shangzheng, Han Qinzhan is the second-in-command in the Ministry of Rites.
It's the right one,
He is not as rigid as a ritual official of the Ministry of Rites. He is very polite to his subordinates and even minor officials, but he has strong ability to do things.
Yan Liqun, the Minister of Rites, also took it as a successor to train him. After all, he is already old.
Han Qindian was also very good to Wang Kang, and he gave advice from time to time.
This made Wang Kang even more surprised.
Since he is responsible for the distribution of candles, the ghosts in this must not be able to avoid him.
This person not only has problems, but also has big problems!
This was really unexpected.
And in this way, there are still many officials in this examination area, and even among the leaders of the people, who are in charge, who are like Han Qinhuan!
Wu Zhirong obviously thought of this problem, and looked at Wang Kang without a trace.
Next, Wang Kang still acted as usual. He has always been in the open and the enemy is in the dark.
At this moment, this form has changed,
He sorted out everything and became a secret, and he was in the dark, like a poisonous snake, digging out all the people involved along this line!
He had a premonition that this might be an earthquake in the officialdom of Zhao State.
But he must reveal it!
In the end, Shen Yuanchong was brought down. The battle between the old and new nobles was no longer just the new policy that Emperor Zhao wanted to implement.
For his Fuyang family, it is also urgent!
Since you have stepped into the vortex, it is impossible to quit. You can only defeat your enemies!
This is politics!
The day passed like this, the sky was getting darker, and it was time to distribute candles every day...
