Bao Yimo grabbed someone from the corridor at random and said sharply: "Who came in this room just now?" What she caught was the green yarn girl who had given Luo a walk earlier.

Hua Niang was taken aback and laughed coquettishly

"Sister Bao, we are a flower building here, and it is natural that you are guests who can enter the private room, you shouldn't be confused about drinking too much, right?" Bao Yimo pushed the door open with one hand, and it was empty.

"What about people?"

"Since it's not in there, it's gone," Seeing that Bao Yimo's face was really ugly, Hua Niang was worried in her heart, and asked hesitantly: "Sister Bao, what's wrong?" Bao Yimo let go of her, closed his eyes and took two steps back: "It's nothing, you go and do something." She couldn't tell if it was a delusion or something real.

I just hope that everything is that she thinks too much. After a few horizontal jumps, Luo Yi stopped at the edge of the imperial city and gasped twice, feeling scared for a while.

It's a good thing he ran fast, otherwise he would have been caught now! When the time comes, let alone complete the tasks assigned by His Royal Highness, whether you have the life to go back and restore your life is another matter.

Holding the East Palace waist card, Luo Yi took advantage of the darkness to return to the East Palace, and the light in the study was still on. He stood outside the door: "Your Highness? Qi Changrong opened the door from the inside, and was not surprised to see him come back: "Check it out?" ”

"Fortunately, in addition to finding out the identity information of those people, my subordinates also unexpectedly learned a piece of news today." The two walked into the study, Qi Changrong sat behind the bookcase, and took the roster in Luo Yi's hand, which recorded all the news about those people.

Qi Changrong flipped over, and Luo Yi said: "These people are from the north and south, and there is nothing wrong with them on the surface, but when the subordinates send people to verify, either they find no such person, or their parents are dead." "One or two can be said to be a coincidence, but all people are like this, and there must be something greasy among them.

Qi Changrong raised his eyebrows: "Is the person you sent reliable?" ”

"It's all brothers in the Dark Guard, absolutely reliable." Qi Changrong was relieved. The Qi royal family has a secret pavilion, which is only used to train royal guards, and the secret guards inside are only under the orders of the emperor, and only the successive emperors and princes know.

She believed that the emperor was suspicious, and no matter how much her father trusted Jiang Bowen, he would not tell him about the existence of the secret pavilion.

Her lips twitched, and her eyes showed a sharp hint of sarcasm. The emperor trusts, but that's it.

"Tell me, what did you find today?" Luo Yi immediately said vividly: "During the day, they did not want to make progress, sat around drinking and having fun, and their subordinates were suspicious, so they secretly monitored, and at the end of the day, they saw them sneaking out of the back door of the inn. Qi Changrong: "Where did they go?" ”

"Tianxiang Building." Qi Changrong was slightly surprised, and his tone was slightly raised: "Brothel? Inexplicably, Luo Yi's expression paused slightly, he wiped the cold sweat that did not exist on his forehead, and coughed: "At first, the subordinates thought they were going for recreation, but after they followed, they found that what they did was more hateful than pastime!" Speaking of the back, there was a bit of undisguised resentment in his voice.

Qi Changrong looked at him suspiciously, and motioned for him to continue. Luo Yi took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "They are talking about the exam questions of the trading fair!" This was surprising, both as Qi Changrong expected it and as she expected.

She knew that someone would operate in the dark, but she didn't expect such an important matter to be carried out in Tianxianglou.

"The subordinates saw them talking to the boss of Tianxiang Building, and they also mentioned an 'adult'." Qi Changrong was thoughtful, bent his fingers slightly, and his fingertips tapped lightly on the tabletop, making a rhythmic sound.

It is conceivable that the 'adult' in their mouth is the most critical person. Luo Yi smacked his lips, and said with regret: "It's a pity that the boss of Tianxianglou is too sharp, and his subordinates were almost discovered after only listening to one sentence, so they didn't hear who the so-called 'adult' was." In order not to alarm more people, he had to evacuate first.

Qi Changrong pondered: "You go to check the boss and behind-the-scenes owner of Tianxiang Building." She paused: "Come here, there is another matter you need to tell the ground team in person, so that they can do it immediately without delay." "The three dark guards in her hands are the Luo team, the earth team, and the sky team.

Among the three Dark Guards, the Celestial Team is the strongest, and its whereabouts are also the most secretive.

Luo Yi had never dealt with the dark guards of the Heavenly Team, and the only one who could be contacted was the Earth Team. After listening to Qi Changrong's words, Luo Yi took two steps forward and bowed his head slightly.

Early the next morning, news spread as if it had grown wings. The Ministry of Rites was robbed, and the exam questions were stolen!

Boom – The whole of Kyoto was in an uproar, and everyone was in danger. In particular, I wanted to cry without tears when I had been preparing for the exam for a long time, for fear that the March exam would be postponed or cancelled.

As the main person in charge of the examination, Wang Zheyan was anxious and worried in the face of the many questions that came one after another, as well as the gossip that spread among the people that was becoming more and more widespread.

"What can I do about this, it's the first time that such a ridiculous thing has happened during the tenure of this official!" The people of the Ministry of Rites were panicked, and no one could answer his questions.

Seeing that the exam is coming, the test questions were leaked at the last moment, and no one can escape the blame.

Yang Yishu was shocked to hear this, and he was so frightened that even the bamboo slips in his hand fell to the ground. The paper can't hold the fire, and no one dares to hide it, after learning about it, Emperor Jin An was furious.

In the imperial study, Emperor Jin An was so angry that he kept standing still, and after decades of reign, this was the first time he had lost his temper like this.

And the man who knelt on the ground in front of him. Qi Changrong, Jiang Bowen, Yang Yishu, Wang Zheyan......

"You shit, what do I want you to do?! The triennial exam can mess me up, what heavy responsibility do I dare to give you in the future? ”

"Especially the crown prince, I have high hopes for you, and I will not hesitate to put you in charge of this matter, and you have given me such an unbearable reply, which is infuriating!" Emperor Jin An's face was gloomy and angry, and he couldn't wait to eat them all to relieve the hatred in his heart.

Qi Changrong, who was named, pursed his lips and looked aggrieved: "Although the minister is at fault in this matter, it happened suddenly and by accident. You also know that Erchen has always only paid lip service, and everything is handled by the people below, and with the assistance of Jiang Taishi and Yang Taifu, who knew that there would be such a big mess. Emperor Jin An smiled angrily: "So you are still reasonable?" Qi Changrong lowered his eyes and continued to be aggrieved: "Don't dare, Erchen is just not angry in his heart." As she spoke, she glared at Jiang Bowen and Yang Yishu who were kneeling on the left and right with hatred, looking terrifying.

Not angry? What else could she not be angry about? The reason is self-evident. Hearing her words, Emperor Jin An, who was dizzy, finally got a trace of clarity, so he had to suppress the anger rising in his heart, and looked at Jiang Bowen who was speechless with a deep face, with cold anger flashing in his eyes.

"Master, what do you want to say about this? The prince has entrusted you with this important matter, but you have allowed such a moth to be made? "Emperor Jin An still has a trace of sanity, and the prince has always been steady, so people can't find faults.

The reason why there are such big loopholes this time must be because I believe in Jiang Bowen and others too much, so I will relax for a while.

If you want to be held responsible, Jiang Bowen will bear the brunt. Jiang Bowen knew that his defense was useless, so he hurriedly bowed his head and kowtowed, admitting his mistake: "If the minister is at fault, please punish Your Majesty." Yang Yishu also hurriedly followed and kowtowed: "The minister is also at fault, and he is willing to take responsibility with the Taishi." "Your Majesty is angry in his heart, no matter what he says, it will only add fuel to the fire, not only will it not have any effect, but it will also make the fire in his heart burn more and more.

There is no right or wrong in anger. Seeing that the two leading figures in the court did not make any excuses, and obediently admitted their mistakes, Wang Zheyan hesitated, and was about to follow, when he saw Emperor Jin An looking at him sharply and warned him: "You shut up for me, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, you deserve to be punished even more!" Wang Zheyan: The palace people who were waiting in the ...... imperial study did not dare to breathe.

After Huang Jin went back to his desk, he pointed to a pile of folds in front of him, and said coldly: "This is the ...... of the dereliction of duty of the Shangshu of the Ginseng Wang, which led to the theft of the test questions."

"This is a ...... that is not strict with the Imperial Majesty of Shen Yang"

"This is a ...... that Taishi Jiang didn't report if he knew about it" One fold after another was thrown on the ground, and when he saw the back, the only thing that made Emperor Jin An feel relieved was that those courtiers finally had a little look at it and didn't move the prince.

"Ladies and gentlemen, can you admit to these charges?" There are no arguments, and it is rare for the three of them to speak in unison.

"The ministers are guilty." Emperor Jin An was imposing, and looked at them slightly with squinted eyes. finally clapped his head and said: "No matter where the exam questions leak, you must catch the culprit, otherwise you will be severely punished." After speaking, Emperor Jin An didn't bother to look at them again, waved his hand and drove people away.

Qi Changrong wiped his face, got up and left angrily. Yang Yishu and Jiang Bowen glanced at each other, and they both raised their feet to chase after them.

"Your Royal Highness......" Without waiting for them to speak, Qi Chang turned around suddenly, and crackled with accusations: "Master Taifu, you are too disappointed by Lone, because Lone believes in you, so you become the shopkeeper, are you worthy of Lone's trust?" Yang Yishu had a hard time arguing, and said with reason: "Your Highness, the minister didn't know that there would be thieves who could steal the test questions from the Tribute Academy." Jiang Bowen's tone was calm: "Your Highness, rest assured, within a few days, the minister will definitely find out this matter clearly, in order to offset it with merit." Qi Changrong said coldly: "Don't talk big, don't come to the East Palace to see Gu until you find out the truth and catch the culprit!" Several people broke up unhappily after talking.

Jiang Bowen's face was instantly gloomy, and anger was churning in his eyes. Only Wang Zheyan avoided the edge, and after Jiang Yang and the two of them walked away, they secretly ran towards the East Palace.

He had doubts in his heart, and his mind kept circling the 'big deal' that Qi Changrong had said. He even had a crazy idea, maybe this matter was directed and acted by the prince of the East Palace!

It's just that there is no definite evidence to prove it. Qi Changrong slowed down and walked to the remote palace road, and after a while, a familiar panting sound came from behind him.
