At noon, a group of scholars walked along the street and talked, but the people on the street only glanced at it and withdrew their gaze, and did not gather around as before.

After the Golden Palace passed the horse parade street, the new branch has passed, and everyone's freshness has also passed, not to mention that there are more new things in the capital now.

“... Is it confirmed in the medical case that this is the case? The first emperor was not sick?"

“... Qin Tangong asked the Tai Hospital to consult the medical case..."

“... The result?"

“... Of course, some said it was due to illness, and some said it was not sick...."

“... Mr. Qingxia's evidence..."

“... This is not very clear, it is said that there are many witnesses, and the imperial court has sent people to find the people mentioned above. ”

“... It turns out that Mr. Qingxia died because of this...."

The restaurant and tea shop on the street were full of whispers, and there was another rapid sound of horses' hooves, and the crowd on the street dodged in panic, and a team of black-clothed saber men and horses galloped past with heavy faces, and the separated crowd gathered again and pointed at the galloping people and horses.

“.... It's from the Ministry of Punishment..."

“... Song Yuan has been busy again these days..."

The marching soldiers entered a guild hall, leaving behind the hustle and bustle of the street, and were greeted by a different kind of hustle and bustle.

“..... The day of the pilgrimage exam is set, and this time it is really set..."

“.... It's just a formality, it used to be, and it is even more so now..."

“.... are all paying attention to this matter, and we don't have the mind to know..."

After the new branch jinshi, he was assigned as an official, and it was supposed to be carried out that month, but first Xue Qing sued Qin Tangong in the Golden Palace, in order to avoid further problems and postponement of the court examination, it was easy for Xue Zhuangyuan to calm down and start to travel normally, and prepare for the court exam, but someone hanged himself at Wang Xiangye's house to sue Qin Tangong, and then Mr. Qingxia's death was also pointed out because of the investigation of Qin Tangong..... The court is in chaos again.

"Everyone, everyone, Xue Zhuangyuan is here. ”

A shout sounded in the noise, and the people sitting in the hall suddenly quieted down, and a young man walked in, it was Xue Qing, and everyone got up and the hall was noisy again.

Xue Qing returned the salute one by one, and said loudly: "I have already asked clearly, the official court examination is scheduled in three days, and I am sure that there will be no mistakes." ”

Although there has been more or less news, but after Xue Qing said it, everyone's hearts settled, strange, in terms of family lineage, sources, and age, this young man is not as good as many of them.

Therefore, it is convincing to be talented.

"Rest well, everyone. The young man in the hall continued, his expression calm and his eyes clear, "Don't be disturbed by other things, get good grades and good rankings." ”

The court exam is basically not much different from the ranking of the palace exam, it is just a formality, of course, there is no need not to accept this kind of auspicious words, but the so-called other things....

"Xue Zhuangyuan, when you accused Qin Tangong in the palace, you said that there was no evidence, but you know. A scholar stood up and said, "Is Mr. Qingxia really killed because of the murder of the prince of Qintan?"

This question is really naked, undoubtedly to Xue Qing to express his position whether he recognizes Qin Tangong and killed the king, the lobby quieted down, looked at Xue Qing, and many people frowned.

"Let's not talk about it. An older scholar said, "Xue Zhuangyuan can be easier, the Hanlin Academy is bound to enter." "Off the hook.

Xue Qing is the champion no matter how he takes the exam, he is going to enter the Hanlin Academy, and he directly becomes a six-grade view of politics, and his future is worry-free, although he offended Qin Tangong in the Golden Palace, the scholar Jin Gui is asking for the teacher's life, plus Wang Xiangye Chen Xiangye and other humanistic officials must protect each other, Qin Tangong can't ruin his future, but the crime of killing the monarch is different, in the future, if the crime is not established, Qin Tangong can directly treat Xue Qing for slander and humiliation of the monarch, then no one can protect him, and the future is over.

Although Xue Qing was dissatisfied with this gentleman's trial at the beginning, it was enough for everyone to be convinced that Drunken Xianlou would do nine articles by himself after the test, it was a real talent, and it was undeniably questionable, plus the Golden Palace gave up his future to seek justice for Mr., such a talented and virtuous young man still hopes that he can have a great future.

Everyone in the hall understood this meaning, and the one who asked at the beginning stopped talking, Xue Qing smiled and said, "I haven't prepared for the exam these days, and I don't hide it from everyone that I am also busy with the crime of killing the monarch in Qin Tan." ”

Unexpectedly, he wanted to take the initiative to say it, and some scholars couldn't help but call out again Young Master Xue tried to stop it.

Xue Qing waved his hand and said: "How can I care about this, if there is no justice, what is the use of the future, I do know that Mr. Qingxia is investigating the affairs of Qin Tangong, but I don't know what to investigate, and Mr. never talks to me, but Fu Bo is an old servant who has followed Mr. for decades, since he said this, I must inquire clearly." ”

Everyone nodded, this kind of thinking is reasonable and understandable.

Xue Qing gave them his hand: "I learned that I came to tell you about the date of the imperial examination, I still have some things to do, so I will go first." ”

The sentient beings thanked and stood up to salute, watched Xue Qing leave, and watched the young man ride away in a hurry, sighing with a sigh, originally the young champion should be relaxed and infinite, but this Xue Qing is so hard and uncertain.

"The heavens will descend on the great task. A jinshi said in a deep voice, "It's a blessing for me to be in the same department as such talents." ”

The beings in the hall nodded in harmony, and there was a lively discussion again.

.....

.....

The slender and waxy wine is poured into the glass, rippling and fragrant.

Xue Qing sniffed, and a hand reached out to carry the wine glass away.

Mr. Si Brown drank the wine and looked down on the boy lying in the rocking chair with his back hand, the young man was wearing a homely robe, no belt, loose, with his legs crossed, and half of his shoes hanging on his feet...

"Tut-tut. Mr. Si Brown smacked his lips, "It's hard work, it's not easy, it's admirable Xue Zhuangyuan." ”

Xue Qing half-squinted his eyes and stretched out his hand to pour another glass of wine, and said lazily: "Sir, why did you come back, didn't you let you stare outside?"

Mr. Si Brown said angrily: "Let me spy at night, let me keep an eye on the movement of people and horses during the day, and let people not rest? Even mules can't be used like this, right?"

Xue Qing said: "Sir, it's not just time to catch up with the critical juncture. ”

Mr. Si Brown circled around the rocking chair and saw the picture books scattered on the small table next to him, and immediately felt ashamed: "How many times have you said that you are not allowed to flip through my books?" Grabbing and waving Xue Qing's head, "Why are you idle?"

Xue Qing raised his hand to protect his head and said, "Aren't I prepared!"

Mr. Si Brown was stunned and said, "What are you preparing?"

Xue Qing said: "Prepare to be the emperor or run away." ”

.....

.....

The bamboo chair creaked in the room, Xue Qing was picked up and thrown aside, and Mr. Si Brown sat on the chair with an annoyed expression.

Xue Qing spread his hands in front of his eyes.

"I'm not wrong, I've done everything I should have done, sir, you count on your fingers, how much I've done. ”

"Let me study, I study, let me take the imperial examination, let me go to the underground palace, let me go to Beijing, let me enter Beijing, let the examination make trouble. ”

"Now that they have everything they want, the rest is theirs. ”

She did everything she asked her to do, and she did a lot of things that she didn't let her do, Mr. Si Brown frowned and said, "What's the matter with running away?"

Xue Qing said: "Of course, it is dangerous to be the emperor to cut off people's wealth, people must sacrifice their lives to fight, there are wins and losses, if you win and become the emperor, if you lose, you will wait for death, of course you will run." ”

Mr. Si Brown got up from the rocking chair and raised his hand to hit her on the head: "Cut off people's money, cut off people's money, that's your way, your way, you still run, run, and don't give up your life to fight." ”

Xue Qing hugged his head and avoided, and said, "She, she, so let Mr. you keep an eye on the outside, lest one of us accidentally lose our lives, you can go quickly, I don't know how many actions I have to do when I see the dagger." ”

That's the same, it seems that he is still talking to each other now, but in fact, he has begun to close the net in private, Mr. Si Brown threw his sleeves and walked out, then came back to his senses and glared and said: "You also lose your life, what do you care about me." ”

Xue Qing said: "Sir, do you know that the teacher and student are the tenth clan outside the nine clans, and they will also be connected." ”

Mr. Si Brown didn't stare but was happy: "I'm not your husband now, we are cooperating." ”

Xue Qing said with a smile: "Cooperation, that's the same party." Stretch out your hand, "Share the joys and sorrows, share the joys and sorrows." ”

Mr. Sibrown snorted and shook his sleeves and walked out.

Xue Qing shook his head, lay back on the rocking chair again, poured wine, squinted, and drank slowly, now she really doesn't need to do anything, and they don't want her to do anything anymore when they think about Chen Sheng.

It's rare to have a leisure.

Do you want to go to the Drunken Immortal Building to listen to a song and watch a dance? Xue Qing took the picture book thrown on the table and covered his face and fell asleep.

......

......

The court meeting lasted for a long time, but the little emperor didn't sleep like before, because the noise was too fierce, he could only look at the court, and there were more unfamiliar faces in the court, but unlike that time, there were many young people, almost all of them were older, and what they said was ten years ago, when he was not born yet, and he couldn't understand it.

The little emperor was writhing on the dragon chair, anyway, they were arguing very seriously and no one paid attention to them, and Chen Sheng, the prince of Qintan, was not there, and the eunuchs around him also seemed to be preoccupied and did not stop him.

I don't know what they are worried about, it has been so many years, and the little emperor shook his legs slightly.

Chen Sheng walked into a duty room with his hands in his hands.

"Lord Wang, there's something to trouble you. He said.

There were seven or eight people sitting in Wang Lieyang's room, looking at Chen Sheng who walked in with a surprised expression, the two Xiangye only met in the court, and never saw each other in private, this room Chen Sheng This is the first time to come in.

Wang Lieyang waved his hand, everyone retreated, and the door was taken up.

"Wen Chang, it's been so many years, do you really want to take it out again?" Wang Lieyang said first.

Chen Sheng sat down beside him and said, "It's been so many years, it's time to take it out." He sighed lightly, "Brother Silin, we are all old, and we can't wait." ”

Wang Lieyang held a few cases and knocked lightly, and said, "What are you for?"

Chen Sheng said: "Of course, it is for the first emperor. ”

Wang Lieyang smiled and said, "Why wasn't it for the first emperor before?"

Chen Shengdao: "Before, it was also for the first emperor, for the orthodoxy of the emperor of Jiangshan Sheji, but now that the imperial road is stable, it is time to be upright." He smiled again, "Brother Silin, at this time, the time and place are favorable, if you miss it, you won't have a chance." ”

Wang Lieyang examined him for a moment, poured tea, and said, "How many soldiers and horses do you want to mobilize?"

Chen Sheng said: "You have the final say on how many soldiers and horses are mobilized, what I ask you to help with is to suppress the transfer of Qin Tangong's men and horses, you help me stabilize it outside, and I don't need you to come forward inside." ”

Wang Lieyang pushed the tea over, sighed lightly, and said, "I'm afraid it's going to be messy." ”

Chen Sheng said: "It's better to have a chaotic time than a chaotic life." He took the tea and drank it all without the slightest hesitation, and his expression was slightly stunned, "This is still the emperor's favorite tea back then." ”

Wang Lieyang said: "Yes, the first emperor entertained and gave people what he liked, in fact, I was not used to drinking at first, and I couldn't quit if I drank too much." ”

Chen Sheng silently drank tea and seemed to reminisce.

Wang Lieyang looked at him and said, "Chen Sheng, are you really sure that the first emperor and the successive emperors were all done by him?"

Chen Sheng looked up at him and said, "Yes, I believe, no doubt." ”

Wang Lieyang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait to see your evidence." ”

Chen Sheng put down the teacup, nodded, turned around and walked out.

.....

.....

The people who were waiting outside poured in.

"Xiangye, do you really want to help him?" one of them asked in a low voice, "Now Xiangye, you are very important, whoever you help, who will have the upper hand." ”

Wang Lieyang said: "Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, it's not suitable now, Chen Sheng is iron-hearted, and in the past few years, he has obtained so many human and physical evidence, the two of them must distinguish one winner and one to stay." ”

Several people in the room frowned: "Chen Sheng stayed in the court, it seems that there is nothing gratifying for us." "One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and he is still a civil servant.

Wang Lieyang poured tea, looked at the crisp tea, and said, "Courtiers, what do we like or not?" "Look up at everyone," the emperor doesn't like it. ”

The emperor did not like it.

The first emperor is the emperor's father, Qin Tan Gong is the emperor's uncle, the queen mother is Qin Tan Gong's sister, Qin Tan Gong was convicted of killing the king, the emperor should avenge his father, but will the emperor be grateful to Chen Sheng for this?

Not necessarily.

Therefore, after getting rid of Qin Tangong, Chen Sheng will temporarily gain fame and fortune in the court, but it will not be long-term, as the little emperor grows up day by day.

Everyone looked at each other and understood, and a smile appeared on their faces.

.....

.....

"Xiangye, Wang Xiangye still refuses to contribute. ”

Walking on the road of the palace, Shi Qingtang followed and whispered.

"If you tell him that the emperor is still there, maybe he will not hesitate. ”

Chen Sheng shook his head with his hands in front of him: "It is indeed true that he will not hesitate to go to Qin Tangong's side, because it will not benefit him, if he is really a person who is upright for the first emperor, where can he still use me to beg him now, so much evidence has been laid out, and he is still indifferent." ”

Shi Qingtang sighed, and said solemnly: "We don't expect him to contribute, just don't do anything wrong." ”

Chen Sheng nodded and said, "Tell Fang Qi that the soldiers and horses can be mobilized." ”

Shi Qingtang responded, stopped and walked backwards, and then went in the other direction.

There are more and more people running around the imperial city, and more and more people and horses are driving out of the capital in all directions, spreading like a web under the boundless sky.

Under the distant clear sky, the northwest of the Mid-Autumn Festival is golden.

There was a cold light in the golden yellow like a meteor, and it was one feathered arrow after another, piercing the target's red heart with a whistle that broke through the air.

"Guo Zi'an!

A rough and hoarse voice rang out, and then there was a shouting and cheering all around.

On the other side of the target, a black horse galloped forward, approached, reined in the horse, and the black and red face of the young man was exposed under the armor, and a smile spread on his face, and he raised the heavy crossbow in his hand.
