Chapter 269: Circumference
"Your Highness's meaning, the lower officials don't understand, the matters related to the test questions should be prepared by the Ministry of Rites, if the world hears any rumors, it should be handled without informing them, after all, the imperial examination is the most rigorous, and I hope His Highness will be cautious." Xu Ziqiao stepped back and bowed.
Seeing that Xu Ziqiao was in such a hurry to avoid this matter, King Xiang just smiled. The answer is that he sent someone to send me there, doesn't he know that Xu Ziqiao is pretending to be stupid with him? But after all, this is in the middle of the palace, the wall has ears, and his brothers are all one by one, I wish he had been caught sooner.
"It seems that this king is mistaken, it should be from those people in his hands, and there are more rumors, Lord Xu, you reminded me, this matter should indeed be checked with the Ministry of Rites, otherwise if you really respond to this rumor and hire a group of useless people, then the country of this hundred years is really in danger!" After King Xiang finished speaking, he didn't stay long, and entered the palace with his hands in his hands, and not a word of what he said was not hammered in Xu Ziqiao's heart.
This His Royal Highness is really blatant enough today, although it is still said that it is still being restrained, but Xu Ziqiao can almost conclude that he must have leaked this answer, and even wanted to recruit a group of 'useless people' to chaos the court.
Seeing that it was almost here, when he went to court, Xu Ziqiao couldn't bother anymore, and hurriedly lowered his head and walked into the palace quickly.
As everyone knows, these things that happened outside the palace today have already been seen by the ubiquitous Qianyuan's eyeliner.
Qianyuan, who knew about this, was also very cold, he was very suspicious because of some things, and he thought that now this evidence has almost been implemented, not to mention that he is the lord of a country, where did he come from so many cumbersome procedures to convict a person, but he really loves King Xiang's dead mother too much.
Therefore, Qianyuan is not directly convicted now, but directly beats Qianyuan in the court.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is one thing that I have been busy enough for, and now the time is almost up, so I want to talk to you Aiqing about this matter." Qianyuan sat on the dragon chair, condescending, and his tone was full of majesty.
"Your Majesty, please speak." The audience brushed one by one.
Qianyuan shook his head, "This matter is very bad, some time ago when the imperial examination was held, due to the negligence of the Ministry of Rites, the questions of the examination were leaked by people with intentions, and some people even circulated the answers among the students, but this matter was still seen through in time, so that the situation could be controlled without causing very serious consequences." I don't know what Aiqing thinks about this matter? ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was dumbfounded, but in fact, this topic is known to everyone, which is not a secret, some time ago King Xiang was furious in the palace because of this matter, and it has been widely circulated.
At this time, the surprise was just a false appearance made by everyone in order to cater to Qianyuan so that he would not look so embarrassed.
"Yinli, I don't know what you think about this matter? I vaguely remember that you also wanted to participate in the imperial examination to prove your strength, and you were even in the third yuan at that time, and now I want to know what you think about this matter. Qianyuan squinted his eyes, and in the midst of everyone's sighs and discussions, he directly named King Xiang's name.
Xiang Wangdao, who was named, was not in a hurry, he felt the eyes of several brothers gathering, and then he just pursed his lips and stood aside.
"My father is not mistaken, his son was also a third yuan in Lianzhong back then, and the matter of the imperial examination is nothing more than to discover those talented idle people among the people, so that they can serve the country and your father, so that the country can prosper. But for some reason, in recent years, this kind of thing has happened repeatedly in the test questions, until this time there was a leak of most of the answers, and the son thought that since this matter was the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites, it must be that some of them were bribed or had bad intentions, and should be investigated and dealt with in time, and the Ministry of Rites should be punished to set an example. If it weren't for the fact that everyone present understood what kind of person he was, I am afraid that he would still be deceived by his sanctimonious appearance.
Qian Yuan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Yinli is right, so I have already punished them in this matter, and I have already found out the person who leaked the test questions, but unfortunately he committed suicide in fear of sin, but the person who can urge him to do this kind of thing should also be a hidden danger, since Yinli has a lot of opinions on this matter, then I will leave this matter to you to investigate, remember that within two months, I will know who is behind the plot!"
As soon as these words came out, several other princes were already smiling in their hearts. This good show started from King Xiang, although some of them also saw the wind and steered, but this matter was plugged in, in the final analysis, it was all King Xiang's mastermind.
Laughing and laughing, but today's question still makes other people feel more mustard in their hearts, since this matter has been entrusted to him by His Majesty, it proves that His Majesty is still partial.
Lin Huiru went to sleep again after making breakfast for Xu Ziqiao, and then slept until noon, and then made lunch again after getting up.
Xu Ziqiao had just returned home, and Lin Huiru had also prepared a steaming meal.
"By the way, I'm afraid that King Xiang's side has begun to suspect me. On the way to the court today, he repeatedly came to pick thorns, and I avoided them all tactfully, I don't know if he changed his opinion. But the most terrible thing is that this matter has been handed over to him under the rain, and I believe that this matter will not be unknown to the underground, and I am afraid that this will hurt the hearts of many people. Xu Ziqiao didn't forget to tell Lin Huiru what he saw and heard today, because now he and Lin Huiru are newcomers, not to mention that now Lin Huiru is still taking care of him at home, and he has no time to go out and have fun with others, he is afraid that Lin Huiru will be bored at home, so he chatted with her about some things to relieve boredom.
Lin Huiru was so surprised when she heard the news that she even broke her chopsticks, she understood that Xu Ziqiao also wanted her to pay more attention to what she said, after all, from the perspective of wind comments, Xiangwang Keke is a ruthless master, in case the hand reaches their side, they still have to prepare in advance.
"Since he dares to take the initiative so much, he must be holding it firm, and this matter will not have any impact on him, and this is a smooth east wind that His Majesty has given him, it seems that the rumors that His Majesty favored him turned out to be true." Lin Huiru took a sip of soup and said with squinted eyes.
