After fidgeting in the side hall for an hour, a little eunuch walked in quickly: "County Lord, Your Majesty is invited." ”

She followed her to the dormitory, and the smell of medicine in the hall lasted for a long time, and Emperor Wu An's face was still a little pale, which showed that his body was still very weak.

Even if he is seriously ill and weak, it will not damage his prestige at all, "Pingle came to find me, but what is the matter?!" ”

She took out the list written by Lin Zhengyue, and said respectfully: "Hanlin Bachelor Lin Zhengyue has a secret recital. ”

Gonggong Liu, who was on the side, hurriedly stepped forward, took the fold away from her hand, and presented it to Emperor Wu'an for inspection.

Emperor Wu An opened it and looked at it, and his originally pale face became even more ugly, "Ahem, this group of people is actually blatantly cheating, it's really too presumptuous!" ”

Xiao Han was full of worry: "Your Majesty is angry, these people are bold, and it is not a pity to die." But the most important thing at the moment is that Your Majesty should take care of the dragon's body, and don't break your body for the sake of these people's popularity. ”

Emperor Wu An calmed down for a while before he spoke: "How does Pingle think I should deal with this matter?" ”

Xiao Han naturally couldn't answer: "Pingle doesn't dare to say anything, presumably Your Majesty has already made a decision in his heart." ”

Emperor Wu An seemed to have to say one, two, three, "You don't have to be afraid, let you really say, no matter what you say, I will not blame you, I just want to hear your opinion." ”

Speaking of which, Xiao Han had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain his thoughts and thoughts: "In Pingle's view, the matter of fraud can be big or small, and in the big picture, it is cheating in the imperial examination, destroying the fairness of the examination, and blinding the Holy Hearing, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the crime of raiding the family and destroying the clan." But Pingle felt that their fraud was real and did not deserve sympathy, but the crime was not death, and it could be dealt with separately according to the severity of the situation. ”

After listening to her thoughts, Emperor Wu An sighed: "What you said is also right, and it is not right, 'benevolent government' is good." But if the punishment is too light, the law has no deterrent effect. In this list, the people who will give the heaviest gifts, 'look carefully', there must be other things behind them, and then deal with them according to the law..."

She thought that since the emperor's uncle said these words to her, he must have planned to hand over this matter to her. Who knows, then Emperor Wu An added: "Since this matter was played by Lin Zhengyue, he will take the lead, plus the Yushitai and Dali Temple will be tried together, and the 'stolen goods' sent will also be handed over and charged into the treasury." ”

"Whoa."

Now that the decree has been given, even if she has doubts in her heart, she can only answer it.

After leaving Yong'an Palace, she returned directly to Huanxi Building, and then ordered Ziluo to send a message to the dark guard to carefully investigate the people with relatively large official positions, including the camp they belonged to.

On the other side, Emperor Wu'an's holy decree had also been issued, and after Lin Zhengyue received the holy decree, she was really relieved and understood that her original choice was right.

He didn't tell the Lord of Pingle either, but took out another list that he had transcribed in advance.

There is an emperor staring, plus the list and the bribes are there, and the people on the list are all in prison. After the results of the investigation came out, she wrote a letter and handed over the results to Lin Zhengyue.

After this incident, after the end of the Spring Festival, presumably Lin Zhengyue will be promoted.

The turmoil before the spring festival was another vibration to the court, and even faintly affected the students.

All the students on the list were disqualified from the exams and sent to prison, awaiting the final verdict.

More than half of the top of the list are the children of the nobles, and most of the rest are also wealthy families.

After all, they came to participate in the Spring Festival to fight for an official position and change their own or even their family's background.

Until the beginning of the spring season, this turmoil has not completely subsided, but all this has nothing to do with the East Palace. Regarding this matter, Donggong has a completely unconventional attitude.

Before the passage of Emperor Wu'an, many officials were dismissed, and a number of officials were dismissed in this 'imperial examination bribery case', and there were many vacancies in the court, so this time the Spring Festival will admit many students to make up for the vacant official positions.

However, before the end of the Spring Festival, Emperor Wu An transferred the vacant official positions within the three products, and directly issued the holy decree to the Ministry of Officials. As for officials below the third rank and above the fifth grade, they will be promoted by the officials according to their political achievements.

After several actions, the forces of the DPRK and China have undergone a reshuffle, and the family has suffered a lot of impacts, and the position of Prime Minister Zhang Cheng and his party in the DPRK and China has become more stable, and the military attache faction headed by Zhen Guogong has not suffered any losses, and the DPRK and China have formed a 'three-legged' situation.

Because of this, many officials began to set their sights on the prince of the East Palace and the crown prince of the dynasty for various purposes.

Xiao Han, who was in charge of managing all the affairs of the East Palace, was the first to discover the problem, and various posts asking for a meeting flew to the East Palace like snowflakes.

After getting these posts, she went directly to Xiao Qi and asked for his opinion. But Xiao Qi didn't seem to be in high spirits, so in the end, she picked five, and then handed the list to Xiao Qi and asked him to take the time to visit on his own.

After becoming Zhan, she found that she came to ask for his opinion on all kinds of things, and she became very busy.

Even if she still serves as a companion, once the affairs are too busy, she has to deal with the matter at hand first, which causes her to sometimes ignore Xiao Qi's feelings.

After waiting for a long time, she realized that Xiao Yan's attitude towards her was not as close as before.

It was also from the beginning of her position that he began to deliberately avoid himself.

Originally, she wanted to find a chance to talk to him, but Xiao Qi always avoided her intentionally or unintentionally, which caused her to never find a suitable opportunity.

After the end of the spring festival, the list of candidates for the examination was announced, and a total of more than 200 people were admitted, and these more than 200 people will continue to participate in the next palace examination.

The Hui Yuan who will test this time is the eldest grandson of the Feng family, a veteran family in the capital, Feng Qianshan, who is only 16 years old this year.

The Feng family is a century-old family, a scholarly family, and the family has produced three prime ministers, five queens, and countless members of the dynasty.

However, because of the lack of heirs, and most of the descendants are mediocre, it has begun to decline in recent decades, and has fallen out of the four major families and has become a second-rate family.

Feng Qianshan, the eldest grandson of the Feng family, was born with high hopes from the Feng family.

And he lived up to expectations, taking the children's examination at the age of eight and winning the championship in one fell swoop.

At the age of ten, he took the hospital examination and still topped the list.

When he was thirteen years old, he took the township examination and was said to be ranked third because he was unwell.

Participating in the exam this time and returning to the top of the list again is enough to prove his strength!

Before the start of the exam, many people expected Feng Qianshan to come out on top, and sure enough, he was right.

However, whether Feng Qianshan can be the top student in high school and revitalize the Feng family depends on the final palace test!

As for the people selected by Xiao Han and Xiao Yan, except for one or two who were unsuccessful, most of them entered the palace examination without danger.

During this palace test, Emperor Wu'an summoned Xiao Qi to observe together.

And Xiao Han did not appear in front of people, but secretly watched in the side hall, and her eyes were first on Feng Qianshan, who would take the test.

She was a little far away and couldn't see his specific appearance clearly, but her tall posture and quiet temperament left a good impression on her.

When answering the questions, he writes like a god and looks confident, which is very different from other students.

Originally, Xiao Han wanted to observe the state of all the students, but he was unconsciously attracted by Feng Qianshan.

When she came back to her senses, she was a little embarrassed, for the first time since she was reborn, she had stared at a man for a long time.

She had to admit that for her, Feng Qianshan was particularly attractive.

Among the rest of the students, there are not no handsome and brilliant people, but in her eyes, they are not as good as Feng Qianshan, who has a focused expression.

"Who is Sister Han looking at?!" Unprepared, Xiao Yan's displeased voice came from behind him.

Xiao Han hurriedly stood up and cleared his throat before saying, "Your Highness doesn't accompany Your Majesty, why do you come to the side hall?" ”

Xiao Yan himself also wanted to know why he came over, he had long known that Xiao Han was staying in the side hall.

As a result, his whole person's attention became inattentive, and his eyes were aimed at the door of the side hall from time to time.

I happened to see Xiao Han staring straight at this side with her eyes, and after observing carefully for a while, she found that the person she had been staring at was Feng Qianshan, the Huiyuan this time.

Xiao Qi was unspeakably unhappy in his heart, looking at Feng Qianshan's eyes, he was extremely picky, feeling that he was not as good as him anywhere, and he didn't understand why Xiao Han's eyes were on him at all.

After observing for a while, he found that Xiao Han had no intention of restraining, he finally couldn't sit still, and found an excuse to come to the side hall, wanting to remind her to pay attention to it, not to keep staring at Feng Qianshan.

As soon as he appeared, Xiao Han's eyes really moved away from the surname Feng, which made his expression soften a lot, and he felt that Xiao Han really valued him the most!

In order not to continue to let Xiao Han focus on Feng Qianshan, he directly pulled Xiao Han away. On the contrary, Xiao Han resisted a little: "Your Highness, the palace test is not over yet, if you leave the flower, Your Majesty will be unhappy!" She had to persuade, trying to make Xiao Qi change her mind and continue to go back to the hall to try where to sit, even if it was good to be a 'mascot' quietly.

It's a pity that Xiao Qi didn't stop her at all, and pulled her forward, and didn't stop until she reached the Imperial Garden.

Xiao Han said helplessly: "Your Highness, tell me, what's wrong with you?!" Do you know that your sudden departure from the table like this will make the emperor's uncle have a bad impression of you! ”

Xiao Yan had an indifferent expression: "Anyway, my father doesn't like me at all, I don't care what my impression is." ”

Listening to these words, it seemed that there was a feeling of breaking the jar, which made Xiao Han very surprised.

Although the prince was also very negative before, under her guidance, he has improved, why do you look at it today, it seems to have gone backwards!

Thinking of his inexplicable estrangement before, Xiao Han felt that now was an opportunity, an opportunity for him to speak his heart!

This time, she pulled him to a pavilion by the lake in the Imperial Garden, and said in a solemn tone: "Your Highness, tell me honestly, what are you estranged from me recently, and what are you worried about?!" ”

Hearing her question, his eyes flickered, and his tone became erratic: "Sister Han, what are you talking about, I don't understand." "It's a decision to play stupid and not admit it.

But Xiao Han was also iron-hearted, and he didn't intend to let him go at all, and said with a serious expression: "Your Highness, don't pretend to be stupid, you deliberately avoided me during this time, and the palace people in the entire East Palace saw it in their eyes." Your attitude changed so suddenly, as Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi, I want to know the reason, this is not too much, right? ”

Hearing that she was using her official position to pressure herself, his expression turned cold. Xiao Han was already paying attention to him, so naturally he didn't miss the change in his expression, and vaguely understood that the problem was there.

She sighed and said: "Your Highness, no matter how good Your Majesty is to me, it is also for you, and it will be you who will succeed you in the future, and this will never change in any way, so what are you afraid of?!" ”

yes, what is he afraid of? Xiao Yan couldn't say it, but he felt that things were not as simple as she said, and he had always understood that his father didn't love him at all.

Although it is difficult to talk about feelings in the royal family, his father always cares only about the imperial aunt and her daughter. If the imperial aunt was a man, he had no doubt that his father, the emperor, would directly pass the throne to her.

For the daughter of the imperial aunt, he can feel that his father likes it from the bottom of his heart, otherwise there are some things that only the prince can do, but the father wants to take the imperial aunt's daughter.

He had vaguely guessed his father's thoughts, so for Xiao Han, his mood was extremely complicated.

It's just that if he asks him to treat her as an enemy, he can't do it, not only that, but just thinking about her leaving his side makes him feel a little hard to breathe.

He didn't know what kind of feelings it was, but he knew he cared about her. What's more, he doesn't care about the throne in the first place, Xiao Han is surnamed Xiao, why is he not at ease? !

Even if she is in power in the future, it may not be a bad thing for him.

Thinking about the problem, his face improved a lot, and his tone became much softer: "I may have been scared before, but now I am not afraid. I just want you to know that I care about you more than you think. So, never betray me, okay? ”

Although I don't know why he suddenly wanted to open it, but this is a good thing for her, as for his last question, she didn't have the idea of betraying him, she said with a serious face: "Your Highness, I don't know what you're worried about, but this is the last time the minister tells you, the minister will never betray you." ”

At this time, the other palace people also hurried over, and when the leader Jinhe saw the prince, he said anxiously: "Your Highness, why did you come here?" The palace test is over, and Your Majesty is looking for you! ”

After seeing Xiao Han on the side, he hurriedly saluted: "The slave greets the county lord of Pingle, and the county lord will also go over together, Your Majesty is also looking for you, the county lord!" ”

Knowing that this topic was not suitable to continue, the two of them looked at each other and hurried back.
