Li Mingqing saw the nervous look on Chen Mo's face, knew that he had lost his temper, and smiled reluctantly: "Hey, it seems that I can't pass the exam this year, brother, what way do you have, can you find a bowl of rice for your eldest brother?" Speaking easily, Chen Moke heard the sound in the words, and said tentatively: "Big brother, you are so talented, you will definitely be able to be admitted, what do you have to say to the younger brother, as long as the eldest brother believes in the younger brother?" ”

Li Mingqing sighed and said, "Brother Xian, do you know who is the main invigilator of this scientific examination?" ”

Chen Mo pretended to be confused and said: "How do I know who it is, does it have anything to do with the eldest brother who is the main invigilator?" ”

Li Mingqing said: "How can it be okay? Coincidentally, this time the examiner and the virtuous brother have the same name and surname, if I hadn't seen the style of being an official in the virtuous brother, the eldest brother still thought that the examiner would be the virtuous brother? ”

Chen Mo smiled and said, "How is it possible? As he spoke, he suddenly felt thirsty, so he took a cup and poured tea to drink.

Li Mingqing also smiled: "That's right, if the virtuous brother is really the examiner, with my talent, I won't be a champion." After speaking, he sighed and said: "Brother Xian, do you know that this examiner is simply not a human being, and he has been studying hard for ten years, and he is counting on the first place, but what has the examiner done now?" He actually took out the exam questions and sold them privately, which is not ......"

When Chen Mo heard this, all the tea in his mouth squirted out, and some of the tea was still choked in his throat. Li Mingqing wanted to continue, and when he saw Chen Mo like this, he hurriedly stopped and said, "Brother Xian, what's wrong with you?" ”

Chen Mo settled down and said: "It's nothing, it's just that I choked my throat by drinking tea, hey, big brother, how much silver is the exam question worth?" ”

Li Mingqing thought that Chen Mo was moved, and said with a smile: "The three exam questions have a total of six hundred taels of silver, why do you want to buy it?" ”

Chen Mo also defended: "Yes, eldest brother, the younger brother also wants to try his luck? ”

Li Mingqing smiled: "I'm afraid you don't have a chance." Did you see the vendor downstairs, they were the last batch to sell exam questions, you go and take a look, maybe you can ......" Before the words were finished, Chen Mo hurriedly rushed down.

After a while, Chen Mo walked back with a melancholy face, holding a bag in his hand, and he could see that he had bought it.

Li Mingqing saw Chen Mo's expression, and said strangely: "Brother Xian, what are you worried about when you buy the exam questions?" ”

Chen Mo has been thinking about it since he bought it, and it is clear that someone is framing him. Hearing Li Mingqing's question, of course he couldn't say what he was thinking, so he said: "It's really weird, that peddler asked me for 1,000 taels of silver, and I lost too much." ”

Li Mingqing said with a smile: "It's nothing, it is estimated that the more you go to the back, the more expensive it is, and the scarcity is expensive." ”

Chen Mo handed the bag to Li Mingqing and said: "Big brother, the younger brother has no fame and is not qualified to take the exam, so let the eldest brother use this exam question." ”

Li Mingqing suddenly sank his face, pushed the exam questions back, and said excitedly: "Brother Xian, do you think that the eldest brother can't afford this exam question, I don't care to do such a thing, the scientific examination is for the purpose of selecting talents, not for the exam." I don't want to be in the company of mediocre people. ”

Chen Mo had no choice but to carry the exam questions in his arms. Li Mingqing smiled at this time: "That's right, but it seems that you can sell it to others." How about we go down and have a drink? ”

Of course, Chen Mo did not refuse.

At the wine table, Li Mingqing only cared about his own sadness, stuffed his head and drunk, and occasionally chanted a few poems to reprimand. Chen Mo was drinking on the side and thinking about his own thoughts, thinking about it over and over again, how to think of a foolproof strategy. The two of them have their hearts in mind, of course this wine is not happy.

Chen Mo saw that Li Mingqing was already drunk, and hurriedly helped him up and returned to Li Mingqing's room, at this time Li Mingqing was still singing, sarcastically mocking the examiner in his heart, Chen Mo felt uncomfortable when he heard these words, and secretly made up his mind in his heart. Chen Mo is not a good bird, his heart is not very generous, in his life motto, that is, revenge will be avenged.

left Li Mingqing's residence and went straight to the mansion of Cui Hao, the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army. At this time, it was just late, and the doorman saw Chen Mo come to the door unscrupulously and stopped: "Who are you?" This is also where you come from. ”

Chen Mo had seen a lot of this scene, so he casually threw a silver ingot over, and said, "You go and report it, just say that a person surnamed Leng came to him, and that's it." Mending couldn't get so much in a month's salary, so he changed his smile and said, "Childe, wait a minute, the slave will go and report." After saying that, he took the silver in his arms and hurried away.

Lin Qianxing was playing with the children leisurely in the backyard, and when he heard the doorman's report, he hurriedly called someone to invite him, and at the same time he was busy tidying up his clothes and walked to the front hall.

Chen Mo has been looking around since he entered the door. After coming to the hall, Cui Hao hurriedly greeted him and said, "Oh, Lord Leng, you are a rare guest, you have made the walls of the humble house shine as soon as you come." ”

Chen Mo smiled and arched his hand: "Master Cui, I have nothing to do but come to the Three Treasures Palace." ”

Lin Qianxing said with a smile: "Lord Leng, now he is a celebrity in front of the emperor, if there is anything that needs Cui's help, just say it." Have a seat. After speaking, he ordered someone to serve tea.

Chen Mo accompanied Cui Hao and sat on the upper seat, and the tea was delivered at this time. Chen Mo Zhengse said: "Master Cui, I won't detour when time is pressing, I have something important to discuss here, can it be convenient?" ”

Lin Qianxing waved his hand, and all the subordinates retreated, and then said, "If your lord has anything, just say it." ”

Chen Mo said in a serious and low voice: "I really don't hide it, I came here for the scientific examination, I bought a copy of the exam questions, and now someone dares to leak the exam questions, and they are openly buying and selling, which is really treating the great Han's Qianqiu as a child's play, and the scientific examination as their own cash cow......"

When Lin Qianxing heard this, he was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Lord Leng, you are not the chief examiner, how did this exam question leak out?" Have you reported to the emperor? ”

Chen Mo had calmed down at the moment, picked up the teacup and said: "I haven't told the emperor yet, because I don't know if this exam question is true or fake, and you also know that the exam question can only be opened when the exam starts, just now I bought a test question at the Jixiang Inn, so I can't be sure whether this exam question is real or fake yet." ”

Lin Qianxing also calmed down and said, "It's okay to be fake, so what if it's true?" ”

Chen Mo took a sip of tea and said: "It's very simple, that is, I die, the other three deputy examiners have a backstage, and when they push the responsibility on me, they will be fine." However, as for you, adult, it's hard to say? ”

Lin Qianxing was stunned and said nervously: "You are the examiner, and I am not, does it have anything to do with me?" ”

Chen Mo smiled: "Haha, do you want to be an adult, you are helping me, I have a different body, can you be a whole body?" What's more, you don't have a backer, you don't know how many people envy your position now, if that's the case, those people don't die to the whole adult, you ah, we look at the good side, lose the official position, I'm afraid the bad will go with me, don't you say? ”

Lin Qianxing is a military general, forty-eight years old, has always been cautious and careful, loyal to the royal family, deeply respected by the emperor, by the time of Emperor Dewu, has climbed to the current position of the deputy capital of the Imperial Forest Army from the second grade. Cui Hao was sweating profusely when he heard this, and said tremblingly: "My lord, what should I do, I'm old and young, I can't have an accident, my lord, do you have any ideas?" ”

Chen Mo put down the teacup and said, "I have an idea, I don't know if you are willing to accept it." ”

Lin Qianxing said anxiously as if grasping a life-saving straw: "My lord, say it, what do you say?" ”

Chen Mo smiled and said, "You handed over 5,000 soldiers and horses to me, as for what you don't care?" What about you, then write a sick note to me, tomorrow you don't go to the tribute hospital, recuperate at home, once something happens to you, it has nothing to do with you, if nothing happens, everything goes well, the credit also has an adult's share, I don't know what the adult thinks? ”

As soon as Lin Qianxing heard that Chen Mo's idea was only beneficial to him, there was no harm, and he said suspiciously: "My lord, that's it."
