Abstract: Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $R_p$ be the set of rational numbers whose denominator is coprime to $p$. Let $P_n(x)$ be the Legendre polynomials. In this paper we mainly show that for $m,n,tin{R}_p$ with $mote0pmodp$, ${\displaystyle }$align &P_{[frac p6]}(t) e -Big(frac 3pBig)sum_{x=0}^{p-1}Big(frac{x^3-3x+2t}pBig)pmod p, &Big(sum_{x=0}^{p-1}Big(frac{x^3+mx+n}pBig)Big)^2equiv Big(frac{-3m}pBig) sum_{k=0}^{[p/6]}�inom{2k}k�inom{3k}k�inom{6k}{3k} Big(frac{4m^3+27n^2}{12^3cdot 4m^3}Big)^kpmod p,${\displaystyle }$ where $(fracap)$ is the Legendre symbol and $[x]$ is the greatest integer function. As an application we solve some conjectures of Z.W. Sun and the author concerning $$, where $m$ is an integer not divisible by $p$.
