In the study room of Jiao's Mansion, Jiao Fang, who was waiting for good news at home for a day off, looked at Li An who was bowing his head in front of him, and couldn't help but ask again: "What did you say?" ”

At this moment, Ang Lee, who is usually conceited and has won the trust of his master, is eager to change someone to report such a first-class bad news. But Jiao Fang's eyes were staring at him, and he had nowhere to hide, so he had to bite the bullet and whispered: "If you go back to the master, follow the young master to see the list of Ping Er and come back and say that there is no young master's name on the list." ”

Jiao Fang leaned heavily on the wide Taishi chair all of a sudden, and the initial incredulity suddenly turned into boundless frustration, and then into an indescribable anger. If he wasn't young for a long time, he just had to wait for Ma Wensheng's old guy to return to the west, why did he have to rack his brains and use all kinds of means to fight people down in order to replace him? But although that effort ultimately failed, the emperor's retention of his Zhishi and the gift of his son Jiao Huangzhong still made up for his regret that he was not a scholar. But now, Zhang Yuanzhen and Yang Tinghe, the two main examiners, dare to let Jiao Huangzhong try to get off the list again!

"Damn, Zhang Yuanzhen, Jiangxi, and Yang Tinghe! Someone must have colluded with them, it must be! ”

Rarely, he cursed the two examiners in front of the servants, and after a long while, Jiao Fang took a deep breath and stopped venting, but asked astringently: "What about the eldest young master?" ”

Li An saw that Jiao Fang only vented for a while after all, and then stopped, and felt relieved, and at this time he hurriedly said: "Back to the master, Ping Er said that the eldest young master was going to come back after seeing the apricot list, but he was pulled to the restaurant by a few literary friends to say that he was distracted, so he sent Ping Er back first, but with the coachman Lao Zheng following, it should not be hindered." ”

"It's not the first time, I think he should be able to afford to put it down, and he should be called Fang Chang." Knowing that his son had not lost his manners, Jiao Fang was a little relieved, and immediately said with a calm face, "However, it is really unbelievable that this Gongyuan reading paper finally read such a result, you must know that the three articles in his current course are all stable, how can he not fall off the list!" You go and inquire about it, especially the servants who served in it when you read it, and see who knows what is going on. Don't skimp on money, I just need to find out! ”

Jiao Fang finished speaking, but when he saw Li Anyu standing still, he couldn't help frowning. However, before he could open his mouth to question, Li An lowered his voice and said something.

"Master, there is a small thing that I only heard about this morning, I thought it didn't matter, but who expected the eldest young master to fall off the list unexpectedly, so the small one felt that it might be related." After a slight pause, seeing Jiao Fang's impatient face, he hurriedly took two steps forward, bowed down against Jiao Fang's side and said, "It is said that in the days when Gongyuan read the papers, many people waited at the entrance of Gongyuan Street to find out the results. The name of the eldest young master somehow ranked first, and some people even poked out the fact that the eldest young master had received a book from the emperor, and it was boiling for a while. ”

As soon as these words came out, Jiao Fang was shocked. He knew a lot about the process of reading the papers, and of course he would not send people to guard the gate of the Gongyuan like those who participated in the examination for the first time. But he didn't expect that because of this, he didn't notice such a seemingly small thing. He had just scolded Zhang Yuanzhen and Yang Tinghe, and he suddenly realized the reason why the two examiners deposed their sons - you must know that just six years ago, because of a rumor, how many people were implicated with one rod!

This plan is not something that someone is bored to open a gambling show, this decision is that someone is making waves behind the scenes, and intends to make Jiao Huang off the list! But even so, Zhang Yuanzhen, Yang Ting, and Heping boasted of being fair and selfless, but at the critical moment, he only knew that Mingzhe was protecting himself, how could he not know that such things would be reported to the heavens and let Jinyiwei or Dongchang investigate thoroughly!

Zhang Yuanzhen is already decrepit, and most of the people who make decisions are Yang Tinghe ...... He has no friendship with Yang Tinghe, could it be that someone has already asked Yang Tinghe before? This is not impossible, there are many people in the court who hate him Jiao Fang, and Ma Wensheng is not a fool, maybe he has already noticed the source of those sinister turmoil in the past, so he arranged this ...... "Master, the eldest young master is back!" ”

Jiao Fang was suspicious, and suddenly there was a rumor outside. As soon as he looked up, he saw Jiao Huangzhong enter the room with a blue face, and hurriedly glanced at Li An. After the people went out, he looked at his son's angry look, then lowered his face and said: "How many times have I told you, it doesn't matter how angry you are at home, no matter what you experience outside, don't hang it on your face!" If you don't make the list, you will make a comeback! ”

"Dad, I'm not young anymore, I know all this!" Jiao Huangzhong endured it outside today, but in the end, he couldn't help but speak ill of it, and he couldn't help it for the first time in front of his father at this time, "Even those few articles that are far inferior to mine are on the list in one fell swoop, how can they just depose me?" Dad, aren't you good with Li Gong, let Dongchang check it out......"

"Enough!"

Although Jiao Fang himself thought so, he was a little annoyed when Jiao Huangzhong actually said such a thing, and after interrupting, he shouted in a deep voice: "These are not your business, of course your father will go to find out what is going on." But after all, your article is not leaky enough, otherwise Yang Tinghe would not dare to do it so explicitly. Go ahead, go back to Wenwen and read the article, don't worry about these things that shouldn't be your business! ”

The scorched center was very angry, but he was used to obeying in front of his father, so he had to withdraw from the study with a full stomach. But after returning to his yard, thinking of being ridiculed by others for unexpectedly falling off the list, thinking that the ugly monster dared to sneer at himself, he couldn't suppress the evil fire in his heart, and he couldn't even listen to his wife's comfort, so he suddenly stood up and brushed his sleeves away. Asked the little guy to order a car to wait at the back door, and he went straight out of the door.

"Go to the Jiangxi Hall outside the Xuanwu Gate!"

Hearing that her son was out again, although Jiao Fang was unhappy, she finally thought that Jiao Huangzhong had suffered another setback, and she didn't pay much attention to it for a while. After thinking about it, he finally thought of Li Rong's head, and after hurriedly writing a letter, he called the housekeeper Li An over, and after he took the letter, he said: "Send it to Gonggong Li, remember to be secretive." ”

One of the apricot lists will be hung in front of Gongyuan Street, and one will be presented to the Imperial Palace. For such important matters, the celebrant eunuch naturally sent it directly to the imperial front, and the eunuch Li Rong, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, knew that Jiao Huangzhong had fallen off the list again before Jiao Fang. In the palace, like the imperial court, there are more southerners than northerners, so he and Jiao Fang naturally have a natural closeness. Jiao Fang has to rely on him to inquire about the affairs of the inner court, and he also has to rely on Jiao Fang to influence the outer court, plus both of them have a big enemy, Ma Wensheng, and the alliance is unbreakable.

That night, when the letter sent by Jiao Fang arrived, Li Rong immediately stood up. He also participated in dealing with Ma Wensheng last time, if it was really the old guy's handiwork that fell off the list this time, he would have to guard against it. Thinking of this, he immediately ordered someone to come in, put on his red Kirin complement crewneck shirt and went straight to Wang Yue. As soon as he entered the door, he found that Chen Kuan was also at Wang Yue's place, and he laughed for a while.

"Yo, it turns out that you are actually in one place, this is going to be a meeting?"

Chen Kuan had been discussing with Wang Yue about the dark miasma of those eunuchs in the East Palace, and when he saw Li Rong coming in, he immediately stopped talking and hurriedly stood up. His qualifications are not as good as Li Rong Xiao Jing, and he doesn't like to get involved in these things, seeing that Li Rong seems to have something to discuss with Wang Yue, he smiled and said: "Gonggong Li said that he was laughing, didn't I come to Lao Wang Kankan to spend some time idle and bored?" It's not early, tomorrow you have to get up early to accompany the court, you continue, I'll go back to sleep! ”

Seeing Chen Kuan smiling, yawning and going out without looking back, Li Rong secretly praised people's intellect, and waited for the little eunuch who stayed outside to close the door, and then he sat in front of Wang Yue. After a few gossips, he turned the conversation to the current science and technology meeting. He didn't mention Jiao Huangzhong's failure at all, but just told the gambling scene at the gate of the Gongyuan before.

"There is such a thing!" Wang Yue's surname was the most impatient, and when he heard this, he was suddenly shocked and angry, "What are the people of Beizhen Fusi doing, everyone is there to watch and let it go!" The grand ceremony of the imperial court, where can they let those cats and dogs take it for fun! Gonggong Li rest assured, I will let those fans go back to investigate, as well as Jinyi Wei Ye Guang, it is time to reprimand and reprimand, otherwise there is no rule and system, then it will be repaid! ”

Li Rong knew that Wang Yue was an artillery fight, and he would blow up at one point, so he was secretly fortunate in his heart at this time, so he had to persuade him a few words on the side, and finally made Wang Yue promise not to trouble Jinyiwei for the time being. When he came out, he suddenly said to Wang Yue, who was sent out: "Gonggong Xiao also has a nephew who took the exam, but he also failed the list, so you don't need to tell him about this for the time being." When the discovery comes out, he must be happy to think about it. ”

"It's okay, wait until I check it first!" Wang Yue didn't doubt him, and immediately nodded, seeing that Li Rong was leaving, he suddenly remembered another thing, hurriedly walked a few steps to stop Li Rong, and said, "These few Zhang Yu, who is the superintendent of the department, walked around, as if he was saying that the herb cultivation in the Tai Hospital was about to be finished, and he planned to take the opportunity to ask the emperor to reward him for his meritorious deeds." If you want me to say that this is all nonsense, everyone knows the posture of the Tai Hospital, redundant officials and redundant personnel, and they have been eliminated and added again and again, where are there still a few decent doctors! ”

"The emperor loves medicine, and Liu Wentai is the best at flattery, so you and I don't have much to do with this matter at the moment. It is not up to them to decide whether the cultivation is completed or not, and it is not that there are no ministers who understand materia medica. ”

Li Rongsheng was afraid that this Wang Cannon would have extraneous branches, so two words of advice were not enough, so he turned around and shook Wang Yue's hand, and said with a sincere face: "Old Wang, you have always been the target of public criticism in Dongchang, instead of paying attention to these, it is better to think about how to deal with those who are staring at your position!" ”

ps: The third more is delivered as promised! There are still 130 votes left, and the possible surname of the reversal is almost equal to zero, but this month's monthly ticket has exceeded 800, almost catching up with the number of monthly tickets in February. Thank you for your support, I hope you will help me continue to catch up, no matter what the chase is, it is my victory!
