Chapter 40: Approach

At this time, another booklet was presented, and the eunuchs beside the emperor hurriedly went down to pick up the booklet and presented it to the emperor with both hands.

[Heh, the Nine Emperors, the Nine Emperors, the time is just right...] The Five Princes only had time to hear these words of the Prince, and they could no longer hear what the Prince was thinking, and the Nine Emperors after handing over the book to the eunuch couldn't hear anything? The fifth prince immediately realized that these two should have fallen into memories.

But no matter whether he can hear his heart or not, the fifth prince is not worried about the prince, because he has the memory of his previous life, he knows that the prince must be fine, and even if something happens, it will not happen at this time!

The ministers in the court here were anxiously waiting for the result, but an unexpected reversal appeared.

The emperor's face softened and softened, his anger gradually dissipated, and he said to the prince: "Get up, prince." ”

Everyone was surprised, what is written in this booklet? It can make the angry emperor calm his anger before he has read all the contents of the booklet.

"Prince, prince, I didn't expect you to still have this heart, but it is inappropriate to collect silver taels by virtue of the imperial examination, and there is no need to be like this in the future." After a pause, the emperor said: "After retiring from the dynasty, the prince and others came to the imperial study. ”

"Thank you, Emperor Mingjian!" Prince Yubi kowtowed heavily, facing the account book in front of him.

It turned out that although the prince took a large amount of bribes, but the silver he received did not enter the prince's pocket, this booklet just submitted can prove that those huge sums of money were used in the construction of the people in some areas of the Qi country, from curing diseases and doing good deeds, to paving roads and bridges, and reclaiming wasteland... Wait a minute.

The booklet that was presented was a more detailed record of the flow of money and its purpose than the other book.

From this point of view, he is indeed not a real corruption and bribery, no matter how corruption and bribery are said, they must be used on themselves, and the money they are greedy for must enter their own pockets to be regarded as corruption and bribery! And the prince used all this money for the people of Qi State, in other words, there is really no need to admit it.

And the Nine Emperor Princes, who had just returned to the Qi Kingdom, although they also accepted the affairs related to the imperial examination, how to find these evidences in a short period of time is really debatable.

But the fact is that a few days ago, the crown prince suddenly summoned the Nine Emperor Princes and said that he had something important to discuss, so he immediately handed over the booklet to him, and said that he would want it in the next few days, and remember to carry it.

And the Nine Emperor Princes, who opened the booklet to check it, found that what he was about to do coincided with the crown prince! No wonder this prince didn't have the slightest worry, it turned out that he had already found a way out, so those silver taels that he couldn't find were really used here? But he always felt that things would not be so simple! This kind of thing doesn't look like the prince did it!

The Imperial Study

"Prince, although I didn't punish you in the main hall, but you got so much silver taels, and you don't take the majesty of the imperial examination seriously!"

"Father, although the imperial examination is very strict, there are still all kinds of bribery every year, and it is impossible to catch them, so it is better to give them a chance, so it will be clear!"

"You are clear, but in this way, the imperial examination will be unfair!"

"Enlighten the Emperor, no, because we will prepare a separate set of test papers for those who pay bribes!" The Nine Emperor Princes hurriedly stepped forward to explain.

"Oh~ So, this year..."

"And so it is..."

"Then I'll just wait and see..."

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

"You don't have to laugh, I'm a pure man" Lin Nanyan heard that someone had seen through her identity as a woman, and Lin Nanyan's first reaction was to deny it! He also pretended to be a man and patted Yima Pingchuan's chest.

"First of all, although you have a man's face, you have overlooked some very important details, such as the Adam's apple that a boy should have, and the ear piercing that a girl can have! And your whole body is full of grace..."

……

Until Duan Xinran got up and left, it was revealed that she was really still in a trance, you must know that she pretended to be a man since she was a child, but she was never discovered! She hasn't ever cared about these small problems, but now she has met a really powerful person...

Ming Ge watched Duan Xinran and the others drift away, and hurriedly spoke: "Miss... Oh, no, Childe, do you know who you're savingβ€”"

β€œβ€¦ Who? ”

"The Four Princesses of Qi Kingdom - Duan Xinran!"

"What! She is the fourth princess of Qi Kingdom! Lin Nanyan was stunned, but when she thought about such a beautiful lady, she could feel the extraordinary temperament as soon as she came into contact with her, but she never thought that this person would be a princess. After all, who would have thought that a random "hero saving beauty" on the street would save the princess!

……

With the packaged potpourri cake, Duan Xinran came to the Five Princes' Mansion.

"Xiao Yu, this is the pastry that the imperial sister brought you, you used to love it very much!"

"Thank you, Sister Huang!"

"Hmm... Xiao Yu, Sister Huang wants you to help me check someone. ”

"Who is it?"

"His name is Yan Yin. Signed up for the imperial examination. ”

[It's a pity that she is surrounded by her father's people, she can't secretly investigate under her father's nose, and if her investigation of this person is discovered by her father, it will definitely not be a good thing! ] 】

After all, Lin Nanyan is a woman disguised as a man to participate in the imperial examination, if she is investigated by her father, this is the crime of bullying the king, so this investigation can only be handed over to the person she trusts the most. ”

Duan Xinran was also full of expectations for this Yan Yin's true identity! She always felt that the fate between the two of them was more than that...

"How could the imperial sister suddenly be so interested in a person who is taking the imperial examination, what the hell happened?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I met a bully on the street and was saved by this guy..."

"What! Bully? Sister Huang, do you have something to do? When the fifth prince learned about it, he immediately cared.

"Well, it's okay, I'm protected by secret guards all the time, what danger can there be."

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

As for why Lin Nanyan doesn't seem to be investigating matters related to her grandmother's death, in fact, it is because she found that if she only wanted to investigate her grandmother's death, she would be even more clueless, so now she decided to investigate in another capacity! Step by step, but what she didn't expect was that it was unfavorable to be a teacher, and the woman dressed as a man was discovered by others all of a sudden, so it seems that she can still participate in this imperial examination?

She didn't want to get many excellent results, and besides, she couldn't get them, she mainly wanted to take this opportunity to see if she could enter the prince's command. As for why it is under the command of the crown prince, it is much simpler, and now the battle in Shangjing City is nothing more than for that position, and the prince is the closest person to that position... I don't know why, but in the dark, she always feels that it will be easier to get closer to the truth when she enters the prince's command!
