In the evening, the old master of the Taiqing Palace was still routinely reviewing the folds, at this time Emperor Xiyuan was still dealing with government affairs not because he was diligent, but because he had been getting up late on the day of the early dynasty recently, and recently not only the government affairs had made him physically tired, but the Jin Dan, which he was constantly taking every day, was also dragging down his body a little bit. 35xs

At this time, a little eunuch walked into the hall, knelt down and kowtowed, then got up and tiptoed to Xiao Jian, first bowed and bowed, and then whispered to Xiao Jian. During the emperor's handling of government affairs, the little eunuch did not dare to disturb the emperor's thoughts.

Xiao Jian waved his hand to let the little eunuch retreat, walked to Emperor Xiyuan's side, and bowed down to report, "Your Majesty, the servants of the Ministry ask to see and say that there is an important event to report!" ”

When Emperor Xiyuan heard this, he put down his hand and glanced at Xiao Jian before saying, "Xuan"

Gong Jing still had a fluke mentality on the way here, and now standing outside the hall and seeing the emperor sitting in front of the imperial case looking at him majestically, he suddenly felt that his legs and feet were weak, and he walked into the hall with a staggering step and bowed, "Weichen knocks on the emperor." ”

Emperor Xiyuan saw that he looked lost and depressed, and he had doubts and a bad premonition, Gong Jing is now the person in charge of the scientific examination.

Emperor Xiyuan was a little anxious in his heart, so he went straight to the point and asked, "What is the matter with Aiqing's visit?" ”

"Your Majesty, Wechen met a madman screaming on the way back today, repeating that he had known the exam questions in advance, but he could have missed high school, Wechen felt weird, and went to ask curiously,

That juzi said that he had bought three exam questions for reference, and one of them was exactly the same as the subject exam questions, but he didn't review the exam questions, so he was unwilling to go crazy and scream, and Wei Chen was shocked when he heard it, how could this be exactly the same? Weichen immediately asked people to take him away, don't let him go viral. Flash Dance

Your Majesty, this exam question was extracted and compiled by Weichen and Jiao Shilang from everywhere, and it was impossible for such a situation to happen, so Weichen suspected that there must be something wrong with this matter, and hurriedly came to report to the emperor. Weichen has written all the relevant things on the date of the proposed topic on the fold, and asked the emperor to take a look. ”

Emperor Xiyuan's face was full of gloom, and he carefully looked at the recital written by Gong Jing, and after reading it, he was furious and threw it at Gong Jing, and roared angrily at the hall, "Come on, take Jiao Zhiqing to me and take the prison of Dali Temple, Gong Jing will be sent back to the house to be imprisoned, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave the house." ”

Gong Jing was already trembling with fright at the moment, and when he heard the emperor's punishment of him, he was immediately relieved, and the fact that he was not imprisoned together showed that the emperor had no intention of killing him.

Emperor Xiyuan left the Taiqing Palace to have dinner, he held chopsticks and just didn't speak, his mind was full of things about the fraud in the imperial examination, the imperial examination is related to all students in the world, the fraud in the imperial examination and the reputation of the imperial court are hindered, it is not an idle matter, it cannot be dealt with hastily, otherwise there is a risk of losing trust to the people, and if you believe it, you will not be able to do it, this is already a matter of the imperial court discipline, Emperor Xiyuan thought of this and quickly ate a few bites of it and got up, and ordered, "Xuan three princes and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu to meet!" ”

After a stick of incense, Emperor Xiyuan announced that the four people had arrived at the Taiqing Palace.

Emperor Xiyuan has informed a few people of this matter, at this time Ouchi only heard heavy breathing and no one spoke, Emperor Xiyuan broke the silence, he asked the Ministry of Rites Shangshu in a majestic voice: "Aiqing, tell me first, how to deal with this matter?" ”

The Ministry of Rites knelt down and pleaded guilty, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, this time the imperial examination has made this mistake, and the minister is guilty of poor supervision and negligence, but the Ministry of Rites is responsible for presiding over the scientific examination, and the minister should avoid suspicion!" ”

Emperor Xi Yuan listened to the slight bow, he would ask the Ministry of Rites Shangshu just want him to be interested in himself and not to meddle in this matter, seeing that he could understand that his attitude towards him was also a lot kinder, and said with a smile: "Aiqing doesn't have to be responsible, this matter needs to be investigated." ”

Emperor Xiyuan looked at the eldest prince and asked from big to small according to his usual style, "Han'er, tell me your opinion on this matter first!" ”

The eldest prince has already figured out what to say, and he has been in a relationship with the Ministry of Rites recently, and this matter must not involve him.

The eldest prince stepped forward and walked and saluted, "Father, the imperial examination is the first important ceremony of our dynasty, and no one will dare to engage in favoritism.

The eldest prince attributed this matter to the younger generation, which means personal behavior. reminded the emperor from the perspective of the prosperous era, which can be regarded as grasping the emperor's sore spot.

Emperor Xiyuan's complexion changed, the literary prosperity is flaunting his own merits, maybe he really can't make too much movement, Emperor Xiyuan was a little moved, and said leisurely, "Well~ What the emperor said is good!" ”

The eldest prince was relieved to hear the emperor's appreciation, knowing that his father had listened to it, he secretly glanced at the book of the Ministry of Rites again, and saw that he also pretended to look at him inadvertently, and the two looked at each other for less than a breath, and the eldest prince immediately turned his head quietly, and the eldest prince had already read his gratitude from that short moment, and his heart was even more proud.

Emperor Xiyuan looked at the second prince next, "Xiao'er"

The second prince secretly hated in his heart, the eldest brother was itching to his father's itch, he opened the bow and did not turn back, he had already laid a net, how could he be silently stillborn at this moment.

The second prince stepped forward and saluted, his face was cautious, and he said, "Father, since the exam questions have been passed out, they are actually used in public for profit, and there must be many people who know it now, I am afraid that it has already been made public, and they will talk about it by word of mouth, and they are afraid that people will cover their ears when they hear it, isn't it ridiculous?"

Those who know the exam questions in advance will feel the injustice of the imperial court after passing the exam? They will be indignant and lose their trust in the imperial court.

Therefore, this matter must be given to the scholars of the world to give an explanation, to prove that the court is fair and fair, and to punish those who dare to engage in favoritism and malpractice, which is to ignore the law and discipline, and this matter must be investigated with great fanfare, so as to set the record straight and show the importance of the court.

Otherwise, it will chill the hearts of thousands of readers, who are a huge group, and the pen in their hands is a thousand weights, and please ask my father to make a clear decision! ”

The words of the second prince can be described as sharp, and he actually laughed at the eldest prince for covering his ears and stealing the bell, and the slap was already slapped on the eldest prince's face.

The second prince borrowed his strength to refute the eldest prince from the emplacement of stains in the literary boom. Since it is a prosperous era of literature, how can it be stained? If you want to let you judge whether it is a literary flourish, what you said is not counted, the prince.

After listening to the words of the second prince, everyone had different thoughts, and Emperor Xiyuan was even more sad and depressed.

The eldest prince's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and his heart was full of anger.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu was full of sorrow, and he was afraid of being affected.

Xiao Jian was expressionless, only thinking that he was a spectator.

His Royal Highness King Qin's face was extremely serious, and his brows were still tightly furrowed, looking worried.

But he smiled in his heart, the two brothers defended and attacked, this scene was wonderful, I really wanted to move a stool out like Yu Fei said, and then talk about the melon seeds.

In this tense and dreary atmosphere, there was silence for a long time, and Emperor Xiyuan said sullenly, "Yu'er said it." ”

Xia Yiyu knew that he was definitely going to make a statement, so he stepped forward and said solemnly, "Father, this matter must be strictly investigated, otherwise it will be difficult to block Youyou's mouth!" Find out about this matter and win the trust of the people! ”
