Chapter 164: Shen Bo

Fraud in the imperial examination has occurred in all dynasties, and it is really a major case, and it must not involve the officials of the current dynasty, corruption and bribery, forming a party for personal gain, in a word, there are many benefits, so the emperor did not mention anything to read the original paper, but let people take the Gongshi apricot list in the examination to the palace, and then the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the thirteen chief and deputy examiners who presided over the examination were shouted out of the list, because it was newly unveiled, so not only the apricot list was still very fresh, even the examiners were still very hot, and the newly released Hui Yuanlang had not been a few days.

There are a total of one hundred and ninety-seven people on the apricot list, and Pu Yangxu pointed to the list and asked: "All those who have an in-law relationship with the people on the list, step forward." ”

Everyone never thought that the emperor really wanted to thoroughly investigate whether there was fraud in this meeting, instead of dealing with Shen Bo's matter first. To tell the truth, it is understandable that there were cases of fraud in the imperial examinations in previous years, and after this new policy, even the alternate officials have not waited for the vacancy.

More than half of the examiners stepped forward, while the eight officials of the Ministry of Rites did not move.

Then Pu Yangxu asked them one by one to point out the people on the list, and asked people to make a good record, among which there was naturally no Shen Bo's name, he took the exam this time, Shen He took the initiative to find an excuse not to be the chief examiner of this term because he knew, but Jiang Ke mixed up with a chief examiner, after all, he was innocent and had nothing to worry about.

"Now let the Ministry of Rites move all the examination papers of the tribute students to the main hall, and I will personally watch you open the seal and read the papers," Pu Yangxu finished instructing, and added, "There are also records for the examination papers." ”

It is not who comes to argue a few words to check their own test papers, all marking records must be approved by at least five or more examiners, which means that five examiners need to agree to read a candidate's test paper at the same time and give him a note, and then the official of the Ministry of Rites will file the candidate's test paper to paste this approval on the file book.

In this way, when you check it later, it is clear at a glance and the evidence is conclusive.

Probably knew that the file was to be checked for a long time, so the Ministry of Rites was fully staffed, and as soon as he received the order, he immediately opened the warehouse and transported it to the Vertical Arch Palace.

As soon as he came back, he encountered such an errand, Shu Tai's thin face was full of bitterness, and his bitter expression echoed Chen Luo, who finally had the opportunity to go down the high ranks and direct the lieutenants to place this stack of test papers in an orderly manner in the hall.

"Two people supervise each other, each group is responsible for ten examination papers, and I have to know within an hour whether all Gongsheng's examination papers are the same as the original and transcription, and whether all Gongsheng's original handwriting is my own handwriting."

Soon it was time to unwrap the volume, and Pu Yangxu gave an order, and everyone moved.

"Submit the exam papers of the rest of your life and Shen Bo, and I will personally check them with the ministers." Pu Yangxu sat back on the dragon chair, nodded his hand on his knee, and his eyes swept to see Chen Luo, who didn't know why he was busy working below, and his eyebrows were almost invisibly raised.

Twenty people were selected from the civil and military officials to check the papers with the people from the Ministry of Rites, and the rest were idle and waited, this time I heard the emperor mention the rest of his life and Shen Bo, and they all came to the spirit in an instant, and they didn't look at the sky, and they didn't doze off, and even Zhao Xiang, who was tired and a little weak, straightened up.

Chen Luo had a layer of sweat on his back, and he was stunned whether he didn't see someone turning over Shen Bo and Yu Sheng's papers at the first time, or the emperor opened his mouth, and someone hurriedly responded: "Wei Chen found the exam paper for the rest of his life, the original volume-"

"Weichen also found a transcript, which is Shen Bo's transcript."

"The original scroll is also available!"

"The transcript of the rest of my life is here, here ......"

Then several voices sounded at the same time, Chen Luo quickly walked to the nearest official, took a roll of paper, and quickly walked to the next target.

Fortunately, the transcripts were all unsealed white paper, and the original scroll was covered in white paper, and only the names of Yu Sheng and Shen Bo were written on the side seams.

He only needs to swap the original scroll - Chen Luo was stunned as soon as he stepped on the high level, the original scroll was pasted with white paper, how did Shen Tingnian let him change it?

Unless the emperor is blind, he can't see it!

The emperor is naturally not blind, he saw Chen Luo's abnormality in his eyes, and even slightly hooked his lips to reveal an unacceptable smile.

Four test papers were placed in the tray underneath the golden cloth towel, which instantly became the center of attention.

Pu Yangxu slowly tore open the original volume of the rest of his life, and after removing the white paper, he revealed the elegant and handsome font of the rest of his life, he only swept it over, put it back on the tray, and then tore open Shen Bo's original volume, which also removed the white paper, and the font that was exposed - tsk, if the font of the rest of his life is Feibai, then Shen Bo's font is probably the flying claw body, and the chicken paws are better than his when they are pressed on the paper.

I didn't even have the desire to glance at it, Pu Yangxu also threw the test paper back to the tray, and then went to turn over the transcript of the rest of his life, Shen Bo's transcript, during this period, Chen Luo kept holding the tray, staring at the two original papers that were opened, and his hand that was about to move had to be put on it several times.

But when Pu Yangxu finished the review, he still didn't have a chance to act, it should be said that he didn't have the guts...... In the end, Pu Yangxu couldn't stand it anymore, he suddenly stood up and smashed the transcript of Shen Bo in his hand back on the tray, and shouted in his mouth: "Come on, go and pass Shen Bo." ”

This anger came strangely, and the force used was so great that he knocked over the tray, so naturally Chen Luo was so frightened that he knelt down and exhaled: "The emperor is angry......

There was an instant silence below, and then they all knelt down and buried their heads and said, "The emperor is angry!" ”

Chen Luo wiped the sweat on her forehead, at this time, she still didn't understand that what Shen Tingnian wanted to do was not something that could be done by him at all, she wanted the emperor to help her from the beginning.

He finally returned to his place with one heart, took the opportunity to pick up the overturned tray and scattered test papers, and then changed the original papers, and put the two test papers handed to him by Shen Tingnian in the tray, he moved slowly and panicked, and Pu Yangxu, who was standing and watching his movements, paced back and forth, still staging an angry scene, and scolded in his mouth: "How can this be reasonable, are they all blind, dare to fool me?" It's too comfortable......"

Everyone thought that he was scolding the cheating officials and Shen Bo, who dared to steal the fame of others, and they were speculating in their hearts, was this true? The rest of my life will be too miserable.

"Rumor Shen Bo's Audience—"

"Chuan Shen Bo—"

"Chuan Shen Bo—"

"Biography—Shen—Wave—"

As soon as Shen Bo, who had been waiting at the gate of the palace for a long time, came in, he felt that his name was echoing throughout the palace, and he silently recited the words that Shen Tingnian sent someone to explain to her, and thought in a disturbed manner, how could the voice of the lieutenant be so long-won't the qi be broken?

"Grass people Shen Bo see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live."

Shen Bo was wearing a navy blue robe and a scholar's hat, and his figure was barely average, because he was too thin, tall and thin, and there was no flesh on his face, and his facial features looked very narrow, but not too ugly.

Pu Yangxu, who was sitting upright, looked like he had just suppressed his anger, but Shen Bo's flying claw body through the whole article instantly appeared in his mind, the words are like his person, the words are like his person, how can he be 108,000 miles different from your sister, he snorted and didn't scream, and asked directly: "I ask you, are you guilty?" ”

Shen Bo's thoughts and thoughts didn't really concentrate until this moment, he straightened his back and looked at Pu Yangxu above the main hall, he saw Pu Yangxu in a dragon robe for the first time, much stranger than the man he saw at the Zhan Ge'er Moon Banquet before, it was probably the distance between the monarch and the minister, and his eyes were difficult to stay and dispersed, "The grass people don't know." ”

"Then do you think you have the talent to be a leader?"

"Nope."

After answering this question, Shen Bo didn't wait for Pu Yangxu to ask again, and took the initiative to confess, "The grass people were really shocked when they saw their names on the apricot list, and they were so frightened that they immediately went to someone to ask if this list was wrong......

"Looks like you're frightened."

Pu Yangxu laughed meaninglessly, and then just about to say something, Shen Bo, who was kneeling at the bottom, took the lead again: "Back to the emperor, the grass people didn't lie, on the first day of the list, the grass people went to the Tribute Academy to find the chief examiner and asked them to check the papers, whether they were the wrong person, but as soon as they heard the names of the grass people, they all gathered around to congratulate them, and they didn't pay attention to the grass people's requests at all......

"Shen Bo, this is above the court, you speak-"

"The emperor is my brother-in-law, can't I tell the truth anymore?" Shen Bo immediately snatched the words of the Ministry of Rites official who suddenly spoke out.

Everyone: I can't afford to provoke it, you say...... Say it!

"Ahem." Pu Yangxu coughed lightly, and said solemnly and majestically, "In this way, you passively became a Huiyuanlang without knowing it, and you also took the initiative to go to the examiner to ask for a check, right?" ”

"Yes." Shen Bo admitted frankly, and also said generously, "This Huiyuanlang grass people don't want it, and ask the emperor to re-select talents and give the grass people a clean slate." ”

In turn, he was wronged...... If Shen Bo cheated and stole fame, their chief examiner was a derelict supervisor, if Shen Bo didn't know, then the chief examiner who assessed him for this Hui Yuanlang was deliberately blinding the Holy Hearing, and I am afraid that this crime will be lost.

I thought that the play that would be staged was Shen Bo's argument, he was slandered for the rest of his life, he didn't steal fame, he didn't cheat, but he didn't, this play is better.

"Your Majesty, Weichen asked to inspect Shen Bo and the rest of his life's test papers." Gong Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites walked out of the column with everyone's attention, as the supreme official of the Ministry of Rites, he always had to stand up for his subordinates, how could he let the dirty water splash up.

Pu Yangxu nodded to this old Shangshu, and said gently: "I was going to show everyone to see it, so let's let Gong Shangshu see it first, and then pass it on to others to see." ”

The newly replaced original scroll Pu Yangxu himself actually didn't read it, if he went to watch it a second time, it would make people suspicious, after all, he never looked at things a second time, no way, he was a little too superior since he was a child, so that people who were familiar with him knew his habits.
