Qin Shaoqing's eyes suddenly lit up.
Naturally, he was very concerned about that girl.
If he hadn't admitted the wrong person, he would not have any more entanglements with Jiang Tian.
"Your Majesty, where is that girl?"
Xuanyuan Ye looked at his expression and realized that he was sincerely looking forward to it, so he felt a little better.
If Qin Shaoqing was interested in Jiang Tian, one was his good brother since childhood, and the other was someone he held close to his heart... He didn't want to get to that point.
Speaking of this girl, Xuanyuan Ye's eyes darkened slightly. ?.?????.???
He did not tell her identity immediately, but looked at Qin Shaoqing with an inquiring look: "Are you on good terms with the young master of the Ministry of Industry?"
Qin Shaoqing was confused for a moment by his question.
But he still nodded calmly: "Yes, our two mansions are next to each other. I have known him since I was a child."
Xuanyuan Ye carefully observed his expression and realized that he was not lying, so he spoke slowly.
"Did you know that she has been disguising herself as a man since she was a child and recently took part in the imperial examination?"
Qin Shaoqing's expression was blank.
He didn't even understand what Xuanyuan Ye said for a moment.
A woman disguised as a man?
Seeing that he really didn't know, Xuanyuan Ye didn't hide it from him.
Originally, finding his sweetheart for Qin Shaoqing was just a piece of cake, and Xuanyuan Ye had no intention of pursuing it in depth.
Qin Shaoqing has excellent painting skills. He can always find that person by looking at that portrait.
But his subordinates told him that the person who was 90% similar to that portrait was actually Liu Hanyan, the son of the Minister of Industry.
He couldn't ignore it.
The imperial examination was held not long ago, and Liu Hanyan was the number one scholar in the new subject. Xuanyuan Ye had seen his articles.
To be honest, his writing skills are only better than those of his predecessors.
But there are particularities to who is the number one scholar. Xuanyuan Ye selected him as the number one scholar for the sake of the power of the court.
Who would have thought that the Liu family would be so bold as to let their daughter pretend to be a young master, raise her for more than ten years, and even take part in the imperial examination.
The imperial examination procedures were complicated and strict. If Liu Hanyan was a girl, someone would definitely have cheated for her.
Xuanyuan Ye could not tolerate sand in his eyes.
What he hates most is that others form cliques for personal gain.
The humiliation he suffered when he was a child, and the sight of the common people not having enough food to eat because of those aristocratic families and starving the fields, made Xuanyuan Ye hate this kind of behavior to the bone.
Originally, he wanted to find Qin Shaoqing's sweetheart, but it also involved the inside story of the imperial examination, and Xuanyuan Ye couldn't ignore it.
When he told Qin Shaoqing everything he had investigated recently, Qin Shaoqing was speechless for a long time.
He had only seen this kind of cheating behavior in story books. Who would have thought that he would actually encounter it in reality.
A terrible guess emerged in his mind.
Qin Shaoqing couldn't help but ask: "So the woman the emperor found is Liu Hanyan?"
Xuanyuan Ye nodded.
He didn't say too many words.
But Qin Shaoqing's heart suddenly went cold.
He has been extremely smart since he was a child, taking one step and thinking ten steps ahead. If not for this, Xuanyuan Ye would not trust him and place him as an undercover agent in the Southern Kingdom.
Whatever Xuanyuan Ye can think of, he can naturally think of.
The woman who made his heart beat wildly had undoubtedly broken the law.
Then his temptation is irrelevant at this moment.
A woman was able to evade various searches, successfully participated in the scientific examination, and won the first prize.
It is estimated that there are countless people who have handled it and how many people have turned a blind eye.
"Your Majesty, what happens next?"
Qin Shaoqing's tone returned to calmness at this time.
To be honest, he just accidentally saw that woman and became interested in her.
I have never been in contact with her and do not understand her temperament. The unforgettable feeling will dissipate as time goes by.
As the young minister of Dali Temple, this case is what he is most concerned about.
Seeing that he immediately returned to normal, Xuanyuan Ye appreciated him a little more in his heart.
As expected of the person he has always fancied, he has always been able to discern right and wrong, big and small.
"How can it be so easy for a woman to be the number one scholar? I have been guarding against their collusion every day, but I still can't prevent it. In that case, when I return to the court, I will clean it up again. Today they dare to collude to promote a woman to enter the palace examination, and tomorrow They dared to annex the food funds for disaster relief, leaving people dead everywhere. Shaoqing, you will be very busy by then."
"I will do my duty wherever I go."
Qin Shaoqing handed over his hand.
The investigation of a woman involved a major case, and Xuanyuan Ye's thoughts about going hunting had faded to the point where he almost lost it.
Fortunately, he brought many warriors with him and arranged for them to accompany the ministers to hunt every day, which they enjoyed.
And Xuanyuan Ye finally got free time, so naturally he had to spend time with Jiang Tian.
If he wanted to see her in the palace, he would have to hide from people during the night.
Now I can see it all the time.
Xuanyuan Ye sometimes asked himself why he didn't get tired of seeing her every day, and why he felt so lost when he couldn't see her.
He asked himself about the affairs of the court and never failed, but he couldn't control his own heart.
"What is the emperor thinking about?"
Jiang Tian is baking with him.
In fact, the two people's childhoods have something in common.
Xuanyuan Ye relied on him to survive when he was at his lowest, but Jiang Tian couldn't afford it
