41: I'm the same as you
Jiang Rongzheng knelt up straight, and didn't respond like Fang Cai, but just looked at Zhao Qi's expression first, and it was really very ugly, his heart moved slightly, and he finally sighed and replied: "I just dredged up the relationship and bought the exam questions, and my son's fame came from cheating." ”
Zhao Liang was annoyed, and the teacup in his hand was about to fall, but his hand had touched the edge of the cup but still stopped. It's been too long, he's not been so angry for a long time, and he's almost lost his honor and did such a thing.
Rong Jiang took in his coherent small movements, and he didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Bodhisattva, who seemed to be good-tempered, would also want to smash people like this, so he hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and quickly calmed his expression, and said to Jiang Rongzheng: "The court opened Enke for the purpose of selecting talents, and you are doing things on this, no matter what the purpose is, it is too much." ”
"I don't know," Jiang Rongzheng said helplessly, his voice was tired, "But do Your Highness and the Marquis think that the Enke scientific examination in Jiangbei is very clean?" In the past, officials were not free from corruption and fraud, but they never made a big fuss, and they were cautious, and most of those scholars had no background, so naturally no one dared to pursue them. ”
"And what about this time?" Zhao Liang sat upright and glanced at him, and asked coldly.
Jiang Rongzheng looked pained: "My son is Suixian is a well-known 'dumb overlord', he eats, drinks and has fun all day long and never reads, His Royal Highness thinks that if he is in high school, will those scholars pursue this list that is released." ”
Zhao Liang and Rong Jiang glanced at each other, and it was obvious that both of them were taken aback. They never expected that Jiang Rongzheng would pay attention to the ** style of Jiangbei officials in order for the imperial court to pay attention to it, and he actually lost his own son.
What does cheating mean? Besides, if a high school champion like his son is not killed, it will not be enough to calm the anger in the hearts of students all over the world. When Jiang Rongzheng took this step, he had already sent his son to the guillotine-
Zhao Liang was shocked by him for a while, stood up and walked two steps in front of him, bent down and helped him up with his own hands, and when he stood upright, Zhao Liang took two steps back and bowed to him: "Jiang Gong is righteous, I am ashamed." ”
Jiang Rongzheng hurriedly waved his hand and hurriedly went to help Zhao Liang, muttering "I can't help it". Rong Jiang watched from the sidelines, unable to say what he felt in his heart, but felt that Rong Huai's rescue of Jiang Rongzheng back then was probably the most right thing to do in this life.
She took two steps forward, which was also a salute, but it was a common etiquette in the army, and then she stood up straight to Jiang Rongzheng, and said to him with a smile: "Before coming down with His Highness, I was still thinking that if you really have been in the same league with Jiangbei officials, I will definitely slash you, so that you will not be ruined by my uncle's reputation alive," Jiang Rongzheng just wanted to speak, she continued, "But in the future, my uncle should be proud of what happened back then." ”
Jiang Rongzheng is not a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing, and he was a little at a loss when he was praised by a prince and a marquis, so he just shook his head and sighed: "If my son has a life, it will be his blessing to be able to exchange the happiness of the people of Jiangbei." ”
After some polite greetings, Zhao Liang didn't want to mention more about his son, but asked everyone to return to their seats, and then asked Jiang Rongzheng again: "So after the scholars checked the list, they found that most of the people on the list were the children of Jiangbei officials, so they started to make trouble, and even went to Beijing to petition, right?" ”
"That's the case, the hearts of the scholars can't be cold, and although Jiangbei is chaotic, there are still a few adults who know right from wrong," Jiang Rongzheng told Zhao Liang in detail about the situation that day, and then added, "On that day, the Shun'an prefect directly reported to the governor, and on the second day, he received the order to detain the son of the Shunning prefect first," but seeing that Zhao Liang had doubts on his face, Fang mentioned again, "He is the first in the second class." ”
Zhao Liang knew it in his chest, but he didn't want this governor of Jiangbei to be so bold, knowing that the governor of Shun'an Zhang was deliberately suppressing it because of his different positions, but he still didn't care about Cao Bin's face, and directly ordered to take people.
After careful calculation, the Shunning prefect asked his son to cheat, which was nothing more than relying on Cao Bin's momentum in the capital, like sending his son to the capital to serve in one fell swoop, even if he couldn't enter the Hanlin Academy, taking a step back, it was to be put in Chixian County to be a county order, and he would be promoted in the future, which was also a matter of honoring his ancestors.
It's a pity that although the wishful thinking is good, I don't want to have Jiang Rongzheng's design this time, which caused the scholars' years of resentment to erupt, and his son also became cannon fodder together.
The three of them talked with Jiang Rongzheng for a while, and probably knew which Jiangbei officials were involved in the fraud this time, so they went back to the inn from Jiang's mansion.
Along the way, Rong Jiang couldn't stop thinking in his heart, Zhao Liang turned his face to look at her from time to time, probably because her facial expression was too rich, so he finally couldn't hold back, and said beside her: "What do you want to ask, you say it directly." ”
The embarrassment on Rong Jiang's face flashed, and he really asked unceremoniously: "Among the Jiangbei officials involved in fraud this time, the most important ones are the Shunning Prefect and the Anshun Prefect, but how does His Highness plan to deal with it?" One is Cao Bin's person, and the other is His Majesty's person. Although Lord Zhang was ordered to take Lord Qin's son, His Royal Highness thought about it carefully, did the Han family give His Majesty a gift? ”
What she said is actually what Zhao Liang is embarrassed about, if it is just a Cao Bin, it doesn't matter how heavy it is, but behind Cao Bin is the queen and the prince, once it hurts their faces, one Zhao Heng really loves the queen, and he must use the topic to play, and the other is that the prince's maternal uncle's subordinates do such a thing, and the people in Jiangbei and the students of the world don't know how to look at the prince. And another Zhizhou Xie Zizhang is even more difficult to move, and the one who can't get it is Zhao Heng's face.
Seeing that he was silent, Rong Jiang did not give him time to think deeply, and continued the question just now: "If there is fraud in Jiangbei, there must be corruption in the capital." According to Jiang Rongzheng, there are bribe-takers in Guozijian and Hanlin Academy," she stopped moving, and Zhao Liang stopped with her, wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at her, and listened to her continue, "A Jiang Rongzheng can still do this, let alone a feudal official in charge of a government and a state." The capital - what about His Highness. ”
Rong Jiang felt that this matter was too complicated, she had always prided herself on being smart, but this case seemed to be a dead knot, no matter how she dealt with it, it would be twisted into a mess, and Zhao Liang and the prince, even including herself, were very likely to be involved in the end and couldn't get out.
She suddenly felt that Zhao Heng's intentions were really sinister, and the Jiangbei case was really not as difficult to investigate as she thought so far, but what about the simplicity? What if they got the clue so easily? Finding out these clues, but not acting rashly, is even more of a headache than not being able to find clues.
She was worried, but Zhao Liang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, asked her with a smile: "Do you remember what you told me when you were going to cook Feng Jia that day?" Rong Jiang looked up at him, as if he didn't understand what he was talking about for a while, Zhao Liang raised his hand to touch the top of her head, and when he touched her soft hair, he froze, then withdrew his hand and said as if to cover up, "You said that the Rong family may be all you rely on in the future, and you will never allow anyone to bully the Rong family." I, the same as you - the Zhao family's rivers and mountains are what I have to protect all my life, and I will never allow anyone to leave a stain on this splendid mountain and river. ”
