"There are also secret reports that Zhang Juer was pregnant that year, saying that she went to Tianzhu to give birth to a child. Some people also said that Xiao Chen, Xiaohou, was not clear with Yang Feng'er, a nobleman in the palace, and even with Huan'er, the former female official of Kunning Palace. It's not clear whether she was innocent or not, but she later helped her husband get away with it... How can we investigate this kind of thing? I'm scared when I hear it!" Wang Jian said.
"There is something even worse." Li Wentao said, "A boy who had been a minister of the Jiangnan Qing Dynasty actually reported that there was some unspeakable and dishonorable secret between Prince Zhongcheng and the uncle Duanmu Nanfeng! He said He has a nose and eyes, but I was so frightened that I broke out in a cold sweat. I couldn’t even listen to it or refute it..."
The main thing is that people report with real names, so the Metropolitan Procuratorate must accept it. Even if you don’t dare to listen, you have to listen. If you can’t record it, you have to record it. In the future, you have to give people an explanation... They can show their identity regardless of their feelings. Strict confidentiality, let us all procuratorate stab Lou Ziang!
"No matter what, everyone must stay calm." Zhao Yu said.
"Okay, my Lord Zhao, have we calmed down when they made such a fuss?" Shen Wenzhi grinned, "Today is not a bad day, they will come again tomorrow, saying they will keep coming as long as there is no result... Who can bear this? Come on?"
"That's the second thing. The main reason is that the cases they reported cannot be investigated! Just like how can we investigate the affairs in the palace?" Wang Jian scratched his head.
"There is also no way to investigate the affairs of those princes. Whether we can find out is another matter. The main reason is that it is too alarming and involves too many things." Li Wentao said.
"Master Zhao, there is something you don't know whether to say or not?" Shen Wen hesitated.
"Tell me." Zhao Yu said.
"These people came here strangely. My subordinates suspect that they were sent by Chen Shangshu and Ma Shangshu." Shen Wen whispered, "Of course, my subordinates have no evidence, they just feel like this."
"Yes, Mr. Zhao, if there was no one behind them to support them, they would not dare to come to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and cause such nonsense!" Li Wentao said.
"Let's go check them out and they'll send someone to us
They are causing trouble, and if this continues, it will not end well for everyone. "Wang Jian said.
"Oh? What do you think?" Zhao Yu said.
"What the rest of us want to do is that we, Mr. Zhao, go to Chen Shangshu and the others in person. We all need to step back and shake hands to make peace. Otherwise, if there is a stalemate, it will be detrimental to both of us." Shen Wendao.
"Hmm... what you guys said makes sense." Zhao Yu nodded in agreement, "Before, I was a bit restrained, but now it seems that it is pointless to continue fighting like this, so I will listen to you and find them now. Say and go.”
"Mr. Zhao, you need this temper...don't start arguing with them again, it's better not to go." Shen Wen said worriedly.
"Haha, you think I can only be tough?" Zhao Yu said with a smile, "Only when a man is able to bend and stretch can he be both strong and soft. This is how you are as a person, and this is how you should do things. I am new here, and you don't understand it yet. I, after getting along with you for a long time, will naturally know."
Zhao Yu kept his word, and as expected, he personally visited Chen Wenqi and the others that night. Chen Wenqi and the others were very enthusiastic when they saw Zhao Yu. They treated each other warmly, drank tea and chatted in a very harmonious manner.
Early the next morning, the young officials came again. This time they did not report, but withdrew their previous reports. The reasons were also varied and varied.
But Shen Wen and others don't care. As long as you are willing to withdraw the lawsuit, who cares what your reasons are?
Forget it this time, but don’t do it again next time, otherwise we will definitely report it to your commander and punish you heavily! Everyone couldn't even say they didn't dare, and they became like birds and beasts in an instant.
This little farce was resolved in a relatively peaceful way. The two sides had a draw, and they all had an explanation for their subordinates. The opening scene was over, but the fun had just begun...
On February 15th, the three trials ended perfectly...
It cannot be said to be perfect, as several cases of cheating were discovered during the period. Although the candidates all changed into new clothes when entering the venue, entrainment was still inevitable.
The methods are even more varied, for example, some people hide cheat sheets in their hair, stick them in lunch boxes, roll them up in pen holders, some even stuff notes into bamboo tubes, stuff them directly into chrysanthemums...
However, this happens every year in the examinations. Examiners see it frequently and are used to it.
After many rounds of examinations, the list was announced, and a total of 300 tributes were selected. Since they still need to pass the palace examination, the rankings are currently in no particular order, but the first and second place winners will be selected from these 300 people. produced in.
Lin Qi, Jiang Chenghe, Murong Lin, and Lu Wenqian were all on the list, and Li Qiu was also on the list. This was all expected...
Lin Qizhong was successful, but he was a little depressed because he knew in advance some of the test questions on the Four Books and Five Classics, such as "Ji Juchuan, use you to make a boat", "Stop at the Perfect Good", "Women and Hui Yu" And it’s been done!
That day when I went to the young prince Li Qiu, he asked him why he "received teachings day and night to supplement his virtue." 'Isn't the next sentence 'If it's gold, use you to make it a steel; if it's a huge river, use you to make a boat'?
And the answer to the question of "Guanyin has no family history" is "to stop at perfection". Sister Ling'er asked him again what Yan Huizilu said, isn't it just "women and Hui Yu"?
It just felt a little strange at the time, but now that I think about it, wasn't this a hint to him?
So the question is, how did the young prince Li Qiu and sister Ling'er know the test questions in advance?
Brother Xiao and Brother Fat must also know. The question is how did they know?
Liu Qiheng didn't seem to know beforehand...
No, if I don't ask this question clearly, I will always feel awkward.
When I came to Xiao Chen's room, I saw Xiao Chen and Fatty Ling'er were there. I just happened to catch them all in one fell swoop, so I locked the door first.
"Oh, our Jinshi Master is here! Congratulations!" Fatty said with a smile, "Why are you so straight-faced? Why did you write something wrong on the list?"
"This is called deepness." Ling'er said with a smile, "Jinshi, are you okay? If you win the first prize later and see the third-level official, even your brother will have to kneel down and worship him."
"What's wrong, Lin Qi, is something wrong?" Xiao Chen felt something was wrong with his face. "I have something to ask you three!" Lin Qi said, "You all must answer me honestly!"
"Oh, this guy just got a Jinshi and he talks to your brother and sister like that? Isn't it a little too early for you to swell?" Fatty asked curiously, "Are you too happy that you got a Jinshi and went crazy? Come over here, Fatty, and give me some help Take your pulse!”
"I'm not crazy, there's no need!" Lin Qi said loudly, "Fat brother, let me ask you, do you know the test questions in advance?"
"Oh, this is really crazy, otherwise how could you say crazy things?" The fat man blinked his eyes and said, "Where do I know the test questions you will test? Could it be possible to steal them from the record-keeping hall of the Ministry of Etiquette? Hahaha..."
Sister Linger, what about you? "Lin Qi came to Ling'er again.
