Chapter 134: The mastermind behind the scenes surfaced
"Jiang Guogong, you don't have to be confused, such a thing is very likely to happen, Gonggong Gao is cautious to serve the emperor, so when the emperor is formulating the topic, he will also serve the pen and ink on the side, so naturally you can see what the emperor's topic is? As long as you memorize this question and leak it the day before the test starts, you can make a good profit. ”
"Then why do you want anyone to commit theft in my house? Isn't that redundant? Jiang Guogong wondered.
"Grandpa Guo, if not, how can you implicate the leakage of exam questions? It stands to reason that although you once presided over the scientific examination, after all, you were born as a military general, and these literary examinations can completely allow the Zhongshu Province and the Yushitai to arrange someone to invigilate the examination, but it is not accidental that you were chosen. Chu Lixue said the key point.
That's right, there are a lot of people in Beichen who are rich and rich, and several imperial historians are also knowledgeable, if you want to say that the invigilator of the scientific examination is also the most suitable candidate, but he was chosen, a military general? It's a bit bizarre indeed.
"Princess, what can they do if they leak the test questions? Take it out and sell it? Will anyone believe it? ”
"Of course I believe it, just before the scientific examination, there were people who sold the test questions of the scientific examination in some teahouses in Cloud City, and the person who sold these test questions was a Taoist priest. The other party deliberately avoided my Deyue Building and the Medicinal Diet Workshop, which means that they are afraid that they will be discovered in the Deyue Building and the Medicinal Diet Workshop. ”
"But there are a lot of students from Yuncheng who are rushing to take the exam, how can they guarantee that the news will not be spread to Deyue Tower?" Shangguan Tianyu wondered.
Since those students can buy the test questions for the scientific examination in other restaurants, won't they take them to other places and sell them again for profit? The answer is yes, naturally no, every student after buying the exam questions, they hope that others do not have them, in this way, he will be more likely to be able to go to high school, will he share the test questions with other students? Definitely not, because people are selfish and greedy.
"Naturally, the news will not reach Deyue Tower, and those students would like to hide the test questions they bought from being known. It was also half a month ago that a guest who went to Xin Yaxuan to listen to music drank too much and only found out about it. ”
"Oh? They actually did it so secretly, if it weren't for the guest who drank too much, I'm afraid the clue would be even more difficult to find, but that guest ......"
"Don't worry, I've asked that guest to follow secretly, he is the Yuncheng people, the son of the owner of Tianxianglou, and Tianxianglou is the birthplace of selling exam questions in the first place." Chu Lixue said lightly.
"You mean, the person who sold the test questions was based in Tianxiang Building?" Jiang Guogong suddenly realized.
"That's right, I think the boss of Xianglou also made a lot of profits in it."
"No, didn't his son also participate in the scientific expedition? If he made a profit from it and sold the test questions to others, then wouldn't his son be blamed if he couldn't win the top prize? Shangguan Tianyu said softly.
"The son of the owner of Tianxianglou has a good knowledge, if he learns with real talent, he should also be able to become a jinshi, if he gets the test questions, there is no problem in entering the top three."
"And how many places did he win?" Shangguan Tianyu said in a deep voice.
"It's strange that there is no name for him in the top three, he only won the jinshi." Chu Lixue said in a deep voice.
"There is still such a thing, isn't his Tianxiang Building the key point of the leakage of the subject exam questions? Could it be that he didn't buy a copy of the test questions to look at? Jiang Guogong wondered.
"No, Yan Jin, the son of the owner of Tianxianglou, is a very high person in his bones, and he disdains to do such a thing, so when he knew that his father provided the fake Taoist priest to sell the exam questions with his head bowed, he came to Xin Yaxuan to drink and complain." Chuli Snow Road.
"I see, it's really thanks to his son who has a backbone, otherwise it wouldn't be easy for us to find this clue." Shangguan Tianyu said happily.
It's been so long, it's hard to find some clues, but it's really not easy, right now, I know that one of them is Gao Gonggong, and the other one can't be found, and the fake Taoist priest, they have never seen it, if they go to shout for Jiang Guogong in front of the emperor like this, they can't convince everyone.
"But we don't know who the person who connected with Gonggong Gao is, and besides, there are thousands of eunuchs in the palace, I don't know who he is, it's difficult to dig out so many palaces." Chu Lixue frowned.
How much Jiang Tian trusts his friend, he must have hoped that his father can successfully clear his grievances, but two months have passed, and Jiang Guogong is still in prison.
"Hey, don't you come to see my dad fakely." A displeased female voice sounded at the door. You don't need to look at it to know that if you are so arrogant, you will come to see Jiang Guogong in prison, who else will there be besides Jiang Yuerong? However, this Jiang Yuerong is quite filial, at least she knows that coming to see her father is much better than her mother.
"Yuerong, why are you here?" Jiang Guogong wondered.
"Dad, what are they here for? Are they here to force you to confess? Jiang Yuerong angrily pointed at Chu Lixue and shouted.
Although she said that it was you, but she dared to point to only Chu Lixue, putting aside the identity of Chu Lixue Chen's princess, the other party was just a second-grade county lord, she was a dignified first-grade princess, but King Chen and King Dingnan were both first-class princes, and the identities of the two people could not be shaken even by the queen mother and the emperor, so she naturally would not offend those two people by death.
"Princess Xingyang, don't slander this concubine." Chu Lixue looked at Jiang Yuerong with a light smile and said.
They have come to see Jiang Guogong several times, but they have never seen Jiang Yuerong coming, and they have not heard the cell boss mention it, thinking about it this way, they thought that Jiang Yuerong was very filial just now, but now they don't think so, not to mention that Jiang Guogong's words just now also showed that Jiang Yuerong came to see him for the first time after he was imprisoned.
It's very simple, Jiang Guogong said Yuerong, why are you here, which shows that Jiang Guogong also wonders why she came, it seems that she came to the prison because she was instructed.
"Princess Xingyang, Jiang Guogong has been in prison for so long, I'm afraid it's the first time that you, a daughter, have come to visit him, right? And also, by whom did you come this time? Let me guess, Queen? It can't be her, your mother? What's more, she shouldn't want Jiang Guogong to know about her ugly things, ah, I thought about it, Queen Mother, your stepmother, she should want to know how far this matter has gotten the most, right? ”
Hearing this, Jiang Yuerong jumped to her feet anxiously, "You...... You are talking nonsense, even if my stepmother wants to know the extent of the development of things, she still cares about my father, what do you mean by that? Do you want to say that my stepmother framed my father? ”
"I didn't say that, Xingyang, you said it yourself, it seems that my direction is right, thank you so much!" Chu Lixue patted Jiang Yuerong's shoulder and said.
After finishing speaking, he took the lead in leaving the prison, and King Chen and King Dingnan saw that Chu Lixue had left, so they had to arch their hands towards Jiang Guogong and quickly chased after them.
Jiang Yuerong looked at the backs of the three of them leaving, and stomped her feet angrily, "Men in this world are the same, when they see a beautiful woman, they immediately catch up, and the world is as black as a crow." ”
Seeing this, Jiang Guogong secretly said in his heart, could it be that Yue Rong likes one of the two of them? If this is the case, King Dingnan is a good choice, King Dingnan has not yet married a wife, and there are no side concubines and concubines in the house, if it is naturally a good choice to marry such a man, then if Yuerong likes King Chen, it will be troublesome, Princess Chen is not a simple role, and King Chen's mind is also on Princess Chen, Yuerong will not be happy. However, it seems that neither of them has a good impression of Yuerong, I'm afraid that Luohua is intentionally ruthless.
"Dad, you stay here for a few more days, I told my stepmother, she will think of letting you out." Jiang Yuerong said with a smile.
Outside the prison, Chu Lixue was standing at the door waiting for King Chen and Shangguan Tianyu, seeing that they had already followed, Chu Lixue got into the carriage by herself, many things are not suitable for talking outside, it is easy to be listened to by the wall, but in the carriage is different, the coachman is his own person, even if he hears something, he will not say it, and it is also suitable for them to talk.
"What did you just say to Jiang Yuerong? Why didn't I understand a word? Shangguan Tianyu couldn't wait.
"This matter is obviously caused by the Queen Mother, but why did she deal with Jiang Guogong? How can you say that it is also her sister's husband, and he is a military general who holds military power, military power, is it to take away the military power in the hands of Jiang Guogong? Chu Lixue frowned slightly.
Why didn't she think of it? Jiang Guogong was imprisoned, the military power was confiscated, and then the military power was handed over to King Jing to take over the control, it seems that the Empress Dowager Bai has begun to slowly disintegrate with the help of King Chen.
Although Chu Lixue muttered to herself, King Chen and Shangguan Tianyu also heard it very clearly, Empress Dowager Bai designed to frame Jiang Guogong for military power, so who will she do next? Is it Shangguan Tianyu or her Chu Lixue?
"Lixue, do you really think that Empress Dowager Bai has already started to act?"
"Well, Shangguan, you have to be careful, don't let her design it."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll take care of it."
"You two really think that this incident was designed by the Empress Dowager Bai? How do I feel like she doesn't have the skills? Also, what did she let Jiang Yuerong go to prison for today? Is it just to see the tragic situation of Jiang Guogong, or do you want to see what we have already found? ”
"I choose the latter." Chu Lixue said lightly.
"I choose the latter, too." Shangguan Tianyu said with a smile.
"Then let's do the next thing, come, get closer." King Chen smiled evilly and beckoned.
