Mu Shaojun looked around and was still trapped in the gloating atmosphere caused by the dismal appearance of the officials, and when no one paid attention to the two of them, he whispered.

"The concubine Hugh wants to hide it from me, and I will go to the concubine's room at night to talk in detail, and it is inconvenient to speak now. ”

Zeng Xian had a hint of trepidation in his eyes, and nodded calmly.

I didn't understand the meaning of Mu's fairy tale at all.

Could it be that the other party knows the purpose of his participation in the scientific expedition this time?

Not to mention Zeng Xian muttering to himself there, pondering Mu Tong's inexplicable words.

said that Liu Xun had planned to unite with other officials to set up a void in the Gongyuan, but he was dismantled by a Keju competition.

But he, Liu Xun, was still enjoying it and couldn't extricate himself.

A lot of the gambling money in the hands of the horse Zeng Xian was contributed by him.

Every time he said to himself categorically: After watching this game, he will trouble Na Mu's child tomorrow.

The result becomes, day after day, tomorrow and so much more.

As a result, the day of the finals is coming, but the time for the imperial examination is also coming.

Alas, he Liu Xun is destined to have no chance to leak secrets.

It's not that he has to earn those thousands of taels of silver, it's not worth earning thousands of taels for the risk of killing an official, he purely wants to see that this young monarch is unhappy and wants to see him unlucky.

But since there is no chance, he Liu Xun will not be bored.

After finishing today's game and enjoying today's delicious meal, Mu Tong went back to the room slowly.

After a round of freshening up, changing out of a wine-smelling shirt, Mu Tong took advantage of the night to appear outside the door of the horse Zeng Xian's room.

"Knock knock. ”

Mu Tong knocked on the door of the concubine, and the concubine, who had long been restless because of Mu Tong's inexplicable words, heard the long-awaited knock on the door, and immediately got up and opened the door, and let the sneaky Mu Tong in.

"I've seen the horse. ”

"Young gentleman is polite, please take a seat. ”

"Please, Master Pony. ”

The two sat down, and the horse politely poured tea for each of them, which suppressed their uneasiness, and asked lightly: "Shaojun came this time, I don't know what to learn?"

Mu Tong picked up the tea in front of him, took a sip gently, and then looked at the other party meaningfully and said, "Master Ma is asking knowingly." ”

"Could it be that Master Ma didn't bring some special tasks to participate in the scientific expedition this time? I know that Master Ma was temporarily sent on the morning of the day he arrived in the Tribute Academy. Don't tell me it's a coincidence. So I want to ask the master of the horse, but do you need to cooperate with this young gentleman? I think in the past few days, the master of the horse has taken the opportunity of the gambling game to gain a lot, right?"

Listening to Mu Tong's hidden words, the horse felt a pang in his heart, and then endured the impulse in his heart, pretended to be crazy and stupid and looked at the young man in front of him and said: "Xia Guan has indeed made a small profit by gambling in the past few days, but it is impossible to say that the gain is not small. ”

Mu Tong listened to the cover up of the horse Zeng Xian, and was immediately dissatisfied.

"Master Pony, when I was an outsider, no. actually played sloppy with me, looking left and right. I'm talking about gambling money? I'm talking about the details of those people that the horse master has figured out by relying on the gambling plate these days. Don't you still want to hide it?"

was spotted by Mu Tong for his actions, and the concubine Zeng Xian was taken aback, and looked at the other party in surprise: "How do you know! What do you want to do!"

Mu Tong picked up the teacup in front of the colt and handed it to him, signaling her to calm down.

"Master Pony, calm down, calm down. Don't let anyone else hear. ”

When watching the concubine Zeng Xian drink the tea like a cow chewing a peony to cover up his panic, Mu Tong made his intentions clear.

"It's good to admit that you're here with a mission. In fact, Mu Tong also has a mission. ”

"What? You've got a mission, too?"

The pony was amazed!

How could Zeng Xian, who had this Mu Tong with a mission, not know that he was not temporarily assigned to accept the task?

Didn't he take the risk because the person who had planned to carry out the mission made a mistake?

Why does this Mu Tong also have a mission? No, it should be said that this Mu Tong is also his own person? Why doesn't he know.

Mu Tong looked at each other with a Zhizhu in his hand, picked up the teacup with a smile, looked confident, and said: "Of course, the horse is His Majesty's son-in-law, and I won't hide it from you." Your Majesty has given me a secret decree to secretly investigate those who want to sabotage the scientific expedition. I think that the horse has also been ordered by His Majesty, and I want us to investigate it together. It seems that His Majesty has underestimated my Mu Tong, thinking that I am young and unreliable, and even sent Ma Ye to investigate secretly. ”

Hearing that Mu Tong's so-called task was actually this, Zeng Xian almost wanted to smash the other party's face with a teacup.

Nima's, scared the old man half to death, you actually told the old man this!

It made the old man think that he was exposed.

Since you think that the old man's purpose is this, it is better for the old man to plan it.

Zeng Xian thought so, so he naturally did it.

"That's right, the old man also thinks that His Majesty is too careful. But Your Majesty has a will, and we have done the functions of our subordinates. It's not that the old man can't trust Shaojun. ”

"Hey~ What do you say, you and I are all doing things for Your Majesty. It's just that although I held a Keju contest to try to lower their guards, but except for Liu Xun Lao'er, the official really didn't see who had a problem, but even Liu Xun Lao'er was just a little dissatisfied with the official, and did not show other flaws. ”

"Huh? this ...... Although Xia Guan has secretly observed them through the gambling game in the past few days, he has not seen any problems. If there is a problem, it is only that Lord Liu loses more silver, but Lord Liu's family is solid, and this bit of silver is not a big amount. But the gambling servant I think is more likely. Although he made a silver tael in the first game. But later, the money he won from the official was directly used as a gambling book, a dozen taels, and half a year's salary, he directly ordered tomorrow's finals. Xia Guan felt that his move was a bit inconsistent with the mentality of other subordinates. ”

"Ahh Hearing what Master Ma said, I also think there is something wrong with him. Could it be that this official really misunderstood Liu Xun'er?"

"Hehe, I think so. Lord Liu estimates that he is a little old-fashioned, and he feels that adults are young and can't accept adults in high positions. ”

Looking at Zeng Xian, who exonerated Liu Xun, Mu Tong felt a little weird in his heart.

"Oh, do you remember what the gambling servant was called?"

"Oh, I remember, there is no need to turn over the ledger, the old man remembers that his name is Niu Qiang. Very easy to remember name. ”

"Niu Qiang, right? The official asked Zhang Cong to keep an eye on him. Thank you, Master Pony. I took my leave first. ”

"Shaojun won't sit for a while longer?"

"No, it's business. The horse master stays. ”

"Then the young gentleman walks slowly, and the old man won't send more. ”

Zeng Xian looked at Mu Tong who was far away, and smiled secretly in his heart: Phew, what is the Huangkou child, it's really confusing. It seems that this mission will start with Liu Xun.

However, Zeng Xian didn't see it at all, and Mu Tong, who was still polite and respectful to him, was covered with frost the moment he turned around.

Acting, Mu Tong really didn't fear anyone. It can be said that he has been living in his own drama since he was five years old.

How could he not see the strangeness of the colt, if at the beginning he was just going to find the colt to find out the tone of Mo Wenxuan's old fox. Now he's got a windfall.

Hehe, this imperial examination tribute institute is really a place of right and wrong.
