In the blind date banquet of the nine princesses, the spring of the twenty-first year of Qiyuan came as scheduled. The eldest princess of Langya is excited, every spring, young talents from various state capitals will gather in the capital, which means that the peak period of marrying girls every three years is coming. The eldest princess of Langya sharpened her knife and waited to grab people at the Qionglin banquet.

Zheng Maoxiu, as one of the propositions of this time, was arranged in the palace with the other three Confucians after hitting the question, just to prevent them from leaking the question. It wasn't until the end of the palace examination that the rankings were decided, and the four great Confucians returned home.

"Grandfather, grandfather!" Jiang Yaoguang and Zheng Yu greeted one after the other.

Zheng Maoxiu, who got out of the sedan chair, held one in one hand, "Why did you run out?" ”

Zheng Yu looked up and behaved, "My sister and I miss our grandfather." ”

Zheng Maoxiu smiled, "That's good! ”

All the way to the lobby, the little girl was chattering non-stop, reciting her Xinhui's poems for a while, and saying that her rabbit had run away...... It seems that I want to tell everything about this month.

Zheng Mao listened with a good temper.

When the eldest princess of Langya saw her husband's ruddy complexion, she relieved herself and said to the chattering Zheng, "The peach blossom cake is ready." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Yu let go of Zheng Maoxiu's hand and rushed over.

After the eldest princess of Langya handed her a piece, she asked her husband with great interest, "I heard that the new champion is very handsome!" ”

The Ninth Princess, who was sitting on the side, rolled her eyes, scooped Jiang Yaoguang over, and rubbed her head.

Jiang Yaoguang was not angry, and looked at her gloatingly, the next wave of blind date banquets is coming, are you ready?

Understanding her eyes, the Ninth Princess hated to poke her head.

Zheng Maoxiu stroked his beautiful beard, "Longzhang Fengzi, His Majesty originally wanted to appoint him as a flower explorer, but his article was old, Shen Bo is beautiful, and he can't bear to give in." As he spoke, he also chanted a subtle quatrain.

Zheng Xizhe and Yin nodded again and again when they heard this, and Zheng Xizhe also tasted it with Zheng Maoxiu.

For the rest of the people, the cultural literacy is not enough, for example, Jiang Yaoguang thinks that this sentence sounds good, but she can't say what is good.

The eldest princess of Langya was impatient with this, and said angrily, "Can you two stop a little, we have to discuss and go to the study later." ”

Zheng Maoxiu was amused, and Zheng Xizhe also stopped talking.

The eldest princess of Langya asked a few more names, and before the exam started, she searched for the young people in this session who were unmarried, thoughtful, with a decent family background and the right age.

It's hard to believe that Zheng Maoxiu only read their articles, and he may not have memorized them all, but his appearance is a little blurry.

The eldest princess of Langya was disappointed and complained, "I told you to pay attention, why don't you care." ”

Now the ninth princess had to speak, "There are so many people, how can my uncle remember it." What is my aunt anxious about, my uncle is the chief examiner, these people who have been lifted, I have to come to the door to thank you, and when the time comes, you can take a good look at each other. ”

The eldest princess of Langya was blind, "What do you mean by me looking at each other, you want to look at each other, I look good, I have one hand, it's you who don't like it, and that one doesn't like it." "It's okay not to say it, as soon as she says that the eldest princess of Langya can't stop the car, a basket of words is waiting for her.

The ninth princess listened to it and had nothing to love.

Jiang Yaoguang glanced at her sympathetically, the strong woman who urged her to marry was a woman who couldn't be messed with at all. I didn't see Zheng Maoxiu and Zheng Xizhe both bowing their heads and drinking tea to avoid their edges.

The Ninth Princess secretly pushed Jiang Yaoguang's back.

Jiang Yaoguang, who was pushed out, threw herself into the arms of the eldest princess of Langya, raised her head curiously and asked, "I heard that His Majesty will hold a Qionglin banquet, it's fun?" ”

The Qionglin banquet can also be called a blind date banquet, and the ministers can take the school hairy son-in-law in an open and honest manner.

As soon as he heard the fun, Zheng Yu also came over, "Banquet, I'm going too, I want to see the trick!" ”

As soon as her granddaughter and granddaughter interrupted her, the eldest princess of Langya forgot to count the nine princesses, began to popularize science for them, and promised to take them to play when the time came.

But in the end, the two didn't go to the Chengqionglin banquet.

Guy Yin, a student from Jinan, Ding Mian, stopped the official sedan chair of Dali Temple, known as the Qingtian, and exposed the second-class jinshi Xu Manmai test questions.

Fraud in the imperial examination has been severely cracked down on in all dynasties, especially in the public to expose, not to mention that Tie Kuo himself is a poor student, relying on the imperial examination to advance, how can he tolerate this kind of thing.

This is not destined to be good!

At that moment, Tie Kuo took Ding Mian to Dali Temple, and sent someone to get Xu Man. Na Xu Man arrived at the government office, but he was recruited after a few rounds.

He was originally the son of a salt merchant, his family was rich, and he was worthy of being promoted at the age of twenty-six, and he was also worthy of a young talent, but it was difficult to go further.

The Xu family finally raised a son who could read, how could he be willing to stop at lifting people. can be a big salt merchant, which is not inextricably linked with officialdom. Xu's father took a thick silver ticket to send his son to Beijing, and he came with the intention of smashing out a jinshi.

But when he entered Beijing, he found that it was too difficult to find a way, and silver alone was not enough, just when the Xu family was discouraged, someone came to the door and said that he had an exam question in his hand, and the price was 100,000 taels, half of which was paid in advance, and the other half was paid after the matter was completed. The other party was a eunuch who claimed to be surnamed Cui, but he refused to reveal his specific identity, and Xu's father decided to spend money on the question after thinking about it again and again.

"The other half of the silver was handed over?" Tie Kuo hurriedly asked.

Xu Man was drenched in cold sweat, and the two trembled, "On the second day of Zhang Bang, he came." As he spoke, he glanced at Ding Mian, who was standing next to him, and finally figured out how he was exposed. After he was in high school that day, he chatted with the little girl in excitement, and when he saw movement behind the tree, he realized that it was a cat and didn't care. Now that I think about it, which is a cat, it is clearly Ding Mian's kid. This bastard himself is just a fellow jinshi, and he must have a grudge against him.

Tie Kuo couldn't help but choke his wrists, so that people brought the painter up, and ordered Xu Man to describe the appearance of the other party, the other party may have made disguise modifications, but it is always the same way. Eunuch, this is inseparable from the palace. These eunuchs castrated, the best gold and silver, what they dare not stretch out their hands.

After getting the portrait and taking the confession, Tie Kuo entered the palace to face the saint.

The emperor's anger can be imagined, while holding the portrait to find someone, he sent someone to thoroughly check the records of the palace people's entry and exit.

The people here haven't found out yet, and there is another accident among the students.

The students exposed each other, and there was no shortage of people who were famous and Sun Shan felt that who was obviously much worse than me, and they were actually hit, so they must have cheated.

There are 3,000 people, plus the top three, there are more than 200 people who can be named on the gold list, and there are still a lot of people who don't get in. The group gathered and demanded that the subject be abolished and reopened.

The students on the list are naturally unwilling, the imperial examination is five points to learn five points of luck, this time lucky, next time may not be. The two sides had to quarrel, and the quarrel was so angry that they didn't know who started the fight, and when the soldiers and horses of the five cities arrived, three people were killed and forty-seven people were injured.

The commander-in-chief made Chu Yuan's head big when he heard it, since ancient times, literati have been the most difficult, and they are still a group of literati, not to mention that this stall has been staring at the capital for the entire Great Zhou.

After collecting the corpse, sending the injured to the hospital, and detaining the person who took the lead in making trouble, Chu Yuan hurriedly ran to the palace.

Jiang Yaoguang, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at the mess on the ground through the window, and the bloody breath in the air loomed. It's just that I went to visit the family of Beizhuang and returned, and I didn't want to bump into such a bloody scene.

Jiang Shaoqin drove his horse in front of the window and glanced at Danmei.

Dan frowned, and quickly lowered the curtains, Jiang Yao's bare hands were too fast, and she let her lift them without noticing for a while.

Dan Mei handed her a cup of warm tea, Jiang Yaoguang took a sip, and the chill in her heart gradually dissipated, but her face was still a little pale.

When he arrived at the eldest princess's mansion, before getting off the carriage, Jiang Yaoguang first adjusted his mood and felt that he couldn't see anything unusual before coming out.

Jiang Shaoqin saw that her expression was as usual, rubbed her face, didn't say anything, and hugged her out of the carriage.

The four brothers and sisters went together to think about the eldest princess of Langya, and presented the socks and forehead wipes made by the lord of Shuyang for his parents, and the craftsmanship of the lord of Shuyang could only do these two things.

After receiving her daughter's filial piety, the eldest princess of Langya was overjoyed, inquired about the situation of the two, remembered something again, and said to Jiang Shaoqin, "In another forty days, your father and aunt will be filial piety, and the courtyard should be cleaned out." ”

Jiang Shaoqin replied, "A-Niang sent Mama Gong back." ”

The eldest princess of Langya nodded, "It's good for her to think about it." "I'm happy again," but I'm going to come back," but I was immediately unhappy again, and I hugged Jiang Yaoguang and said reluctantly, "When you leave, what will my grandmother do?" ”

Jiang Yaoguang put his arm around her waist and said, "I can come to see you and my grandfather often, the yard will continue to be kept for me, and I will come to live from time to time." ”

"Why don't you say that you won't leave, I don't want to coax me." The eldest princess of Langya pinched her face and complained.

Jiang Yaoguang grinned and didn't speak.

For several days in a row, Jiang Yaoguang was tired of being by the eldest princess's side, and planned to take advantage of this time to accompany her. The wind was surging outside, and she couldn't help but listen to her ears.

There was a lot of noise in the court, and all the officials related to the imperial examination were trembling, for fear of getting into trouble.

It was Zheng Maoxiu, as the chief examiner and the proposer, who was also taken to Dali Temple by Tie Kuo for interrogation, although he was put back immediately, the eldest princess of Langya was still very angry. But against such a person, he is for the public, but he is not close to people, if you trouble him for this, those 'righteous people' can spray you in the face. If you don't see it, the emperor sometimes has no latte.

Jiang Yaoguang comforted for a while before smoothing out the anger of the eldest princess of Langya. But she never expected the news to come a few days later, saying that her grandfather had confessed! It was his negligence that gave the people around him a chance.

Suddenly, Jiang Yaoguang was stunned. When I came back to my senses, my first reaction was that my grandfather was taking the blame for others, and he was busy going to see the eldest princess of Langya.

The eldest princess of Langya has already stood up, and at this moment, her face is cloudy and can rain.
