Chapter 194 The fog is heavy
The room had suddenly become quiet, and people didn't even dare to make too much noise to breathe, so quiet that it was almost audible when a pin dropped. What a big deal is the fraud in the scientific expedition, the anger of the ghost king can be imagined, people shrank their necks, quietly waiting for the thunderous anger of the ghost king.
It's just that to everyone's surprise, although the ghost king was angry, he didn't get angry, but lowered his head and pondered.
Yun Yuhong does have a big temper and has no patience, but that doesn't mean that she is brainless, but on the contrary, she has always been calm in major matters, and never let her anger control her emotions and influence her judgment.
Yun Yuhong turned a few corners in her mind about the pros and cons of the matter, and thought of a few plans, but they were all vetoed by herself. Sometimes she makes a big fuss, and even puts her face on her face to death, such as in the face of some villains, she makes things bigger can have a deterrent effect, which can reduce a lot of unnecessary troubles in the future. But sometimes you have to be able to make a big fuss, just like this scientific expedition fraud. After experiencing the chaos of war, Mo Yun had just calmed down. Now it is not said that there is a hundred wastes to be revived, but the treasury is short of silver and grain, and it is still a problem for the people to eat well, development is more important than everything, this time can not be chaotic, what Moyun needs now is stability.
Yun Yuhong flipped through the test paper in her hand, if she didn't guess wrong, most of the fraud this time was the children of the nobles, but these people are flourishing and have a complicated relationship, once it is really investigated, it can be said that it is widely implicated. And Bai Ziyu now wants to open trade, many of which still need these people to contribute, after all, when it comes to doing business, it is necessary to have capital, connections, and consumer needs, and ordinary people can't do this, so if this matter is big, it will not be beneficial to the country and the people, so it must not be dealt with.
Of course, Yun Yuhong also knows that such a thing cannot be connived at, it is okay to be light, but it cannot really be let go, otherwise the nobles of the family will only be more arrogant in the future, and the laws and regulations of the country cannot be tarnished. Therefore, this matter must be dealt with to a certain degree.
Yun Yuhong didn't come up with a good solution, but she knew that she couldn't act rashly. Lightly said to the ten examiners of the Hanlin Academy: "I don't know too well what happened, a few adults, please be wronged, go to the backyard to live for a few days, don't go out of the house these days, and when the matter is clarified, I will make amends to a few adults." ”
The legs of the dozen or so people were trembling, when would the ghost king be so polite, didn't he want to salute first and then soldier, there was a big move waiting for them in the back, but in a situation like this, is there room for them to say no? A group of soldiers came in and helped the ministers out.
There were only four people left in the room: Yun Yuhong, Scholar Zhou, Scholar Qin and Mrs. Yi, and Scholar Qin asked, "Ghost King, what should we do next?" ”
Yun Yuhong smiled, "What else can I do, find out what else I can do." However, until there is definite evidence and clarity of what happened, this should not be publicized beforehand. We asked someone to pick out the problematic exam papers, and the other exams that were not problematic were reviewed by three adults. We have to investigate the fraud case, but we must continue to do the scientific examination and grading. The country needs talents, and this cannot be delayed. ”
Scholar Qin gave Yun Yuhong a thumbs up in his heart, this woman is worthy of being the king of ghosts, she is calm in her work, she lifts weights lightly, and she has ideas and courage. Generally, if someone else is replaced, either shouting loudly and recklessly about the consequences, or going to the court to write to the court, everything is waiting for the emperor to decide. Only this ghost king is very decent, not as irritable and irritable as the legend, but calm and wise.
Scholar Zhou is calm on the surface, but inside he is like cooking oil. The matter was revealed, and the ghost king would not let them go, but fortunately, this incident did not pass through his hands, otherwise the consequences would be really unimaginable. It's just that many children in the family are involved in this matter, including the youngest son who has given high hopes, and it's all over. This matter is very dangerous, how can you send the news out?
Scholar Zhou was anxious, but Yun Yuhong was very calm, so he asked people to go to the army to find more than 50 literate soldiers, pick out the problematic papers according to the rules just discovered, and put them in front of Yun Yuhong, while the others were reviewed by Scholar Zhou, Scholar Qin and Mrs. Yi. Yun Yuhong wrote another letter, sent someone to hand it over to Bai Ziyu, and wrote an excerpt to send someone to Qianzong. Soon, the Qianzong sent someone to reply, and everything was handled by Yun Yuhong.
In the early morning of the second day, nearly 1,000 test papers were finally sorted out, and there were about 200 questions in total, which were piled up like a small mountain in front of the Yunyuhong case. And the three adults who read the test papers for a day and a night were also dizzy and in good spirits. Yun Yuhong stretched her waist and asked the officers and soldiers in the army to go back, and also let the three adults go to the side room to rest.
According to the regulations of the Moyun scientific examination, before the admission ranking is not determined, all the examiners and subordinates participating in the imperial examination must not enter or leave, to put it bluntly, in order to prevent fraud, the news and people in the examination room cannot come out, and the people and letters outside the examination room cannot enter the examination room, and everyone's entry and exit are strictly checked by the guards.
Therefore, when Yun Yuhong was about to rest but saw Bai Ziyu, she was also very surprised.
Bai Ziyu is still dressed in white and gentle, but if you look closely, Yun Yuhong can still know from the red silk in his eyes that he was afraid that he had no sleep last night.
Yun Yuhong told Bai Ziyu in detail about yesterday's events and her own thoughts, Bai Ziyu nodded and said: "The princess is very thoughtful, this matter really can't make a big fuss, yesterday, I went to the palace to talk with the emperor for a long time, we also want to focus on the people's livelihood first, these clowns will have a chance to clean up in the future." ”
Yun Yuhong smiled lightly: "So you came here early in the morning to tell me about this decision?" ”
Bai Ziyu was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "No, I haven't seen the princess for a few days, and I miss you a little." So I deliberately asked the emperor for this errand. ”
Yun Yuhong's smile became even sweeter, "Aren't you and your father still worried about my errands?" Go back and tell your father that if he doesn't feel at ease, he can find an overseer to watch over me. ”
Bai Ziyu took Yun Yuhong's hand, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Did I say that my father and I were not at ease?" I'm afraid someone wants to find an overseer to accompany them. ”
Yun Yuhong gently approached Bai Ziyu's arms and said softly: "I know you are busy, I also have something to do, I don't ask you to accompany me, but you have to pay attention to your body, don't be too tired." ”
Bai Ziyu patted Yun Yuhong's back, and the two wanted to stand together, enjoying the rare warmth and beauty.
After Bai Ziyu left, Yun Yuhong didn't want to sleep, so she ordered someone to go to the backyard to bring the ten ministers of the Hanlin Academy, and the problematic volume has been found, probably who she has in her heart, she is very curious, who is behind the scenes, can have such a wide range of contacts, and can come up with such a method.
Just waited for a quarter of an hour, and the guards who were sent to lead people ran over in a panic, shouting: "Ghost King, something has happened, something has happened."
As soon as Yun Yuhong heard it, she knew that something was wrong, so she ran to the backyard. The door to the guest room in the backyard had been opened, and there was a smell of blood coming from inside, and more than a dozen corpses were lying in pools of blood, as if they had been dead for a long time.
Yun Yuhong had a bad premonition in her heart, and hurriedly called the soldiers and some secret guards in the army, and asked them to immediately bring someone to arrest all the people in the cheating test paper and bring them to her, and everyone immediately acted separately. Yun Yuhong had time to walk into the house to see the corpses of a few people.
The corpses were all knife wounds, and the injuries were in the neck, all of which were killed by a knife, which was very neat. Judging from the knife marks, at least two people did it. A few people didn't close their eyes, but their eyes weren't full of fear before death, and there was disbelief. It can be seen that these two people are known to them, or they are accomplices. It's just that they didn't expect that these two people were here to kill people.
Yun Yuhong didn't stay long, but returned to the hall to wait, and soon, some cheating candidates were brought in, and these people obviously knew what they had committed as soon as they entered the examination room, and they were all so frightened that their faces turned pale and shouted for mercy.
Yun Yuhong looked at them lightly and asked, "Do you really want me to spare my life?" Then don't scream and answer my questions obediently. ”
These people were busy nodding their heads, and now, they were not thinking about what the high-ranking officials had to do and the horses that they had to ride, but as long as they could survive.
Yun Yuhong then asked, "Who told you how to cheat?" ”
These people were silent, they could not speak, or they did not know what to say, and they were told to their fathers and brothers, to the people closest to them.
Seeing that they didn't speak, Yun Yuhong said lightly: "There will always be people who say it, it doesn't matter if you don't say it, but whether you can survive or not is in my hands." You've figured it out. ”
One of them couldn't stand the pressure and shouted, "Don't, don't kill me, I said, it was my father who told me, and he said that he listened to Yu Shangshu." ”
Yu Shangshu, it turned out that he still had a foot in this matter, but, I don't know what benefits Yu Shangshu got from it, Yun Yuhong asked a few more words, but these people have limited knowledge and can't say anything anymore. Yun Yuhong could only send someone to invite a few more fathers to interrogate. It's just that people come and don't know anything about things, and only say that they can go to high school by listening to others, so they let the children try. The others kept their mouths shut.
Yun Yuhong knew that something was wrong with this, the news leaked so quickly, and this place was heavily guarded but people could come in and commit murder, this person was by no means simple, Scholar Zhou had always been with her, there was no chance, Yu Shangshu was the most suspicious, but could he have such a means? At least those ten lives are not something that simple people can do. But she reached a consensus with He Qianzong and Bai Ziyu - the big thing is small, she didn't go deeper and ask in detail, of course, she couldn't get any empirical evidence except for the confession. So the case is naturally deadlocked, and it can only be suspended.
