Pan Gongzi's words were full of praise, "Brother Ling has a brilliant mind at a young age, and he is talented, and he will become a great weapon in the future!" ”

I stroked my chest and sighed: "It's hard to say if he can't make a big deal, don't let me worry about him, I've thanked him." ”

Pan Gongzi said a few words of gentle persuasion, saying that he had done a good job in Dali Temple, and would never let Xiaoshu suffer and be wronged, Fang turned his words and said another thing: "The case that will be tested has been beneficial to the prince, and I don't want to have branches outside the festival." ”

"What's the situation?"

"Also yesterday, the Ministry of Rites reported to His Majesty that Master Xie was in the middle of the matter, saying that Zhang Qiang, who was the thirteenth in the first class in the list of this examination, was originally a child of a gentleman with blunt qualifications and no learning skills, but he was also on the list, and he was suspected of favoritism." Pan Gongzi shook his fan and said meaningfully, "And this Zhang Qiang is not an outsider, it is the fifth son of the family of Master Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites." ”

I reacted immediately: "In other words, he is the younger brother of Zhang Wei and the crown princess, and the brother-in-law of His Royal Highness the crown prince?" ”

"Exactly."

Sure enough, it is a sensitive identity: "So is this Zhang Qiang talented?" ”

His Majesty also felt that this son had a special identity, and he heard that he was the son of Zhang Shangshu, so he simply summoned Zhang Qiang to the imperial study to ask in person. After asking a few words, the son stammered and showed timidity. ”

Could it be that it is really a straw bale, "Maybe it is to meet Tianyan and be too nervous?" ”

"It's possible, and Your Majesty is not surprised. At that time, he was in love with the scene, and simply gave him a pair, and the upper link was: a group of geese flew south. ”

This is easy to understand, the structure is simple, and it is not difficult to get right, "Zhang Qiang can come up." ”

Pan Gongzi had a strange look on his face: "This son said: Two roast ducks go north." ”

"Poof!" The tea I had just swallowed spurted out again, "...... Roast duck? ”

His Majesty was so angry that he blew his beard on the spot, and Zhang Shangshu on the side was so frightened that his face turned white, kicked on the butt of this unsuccessful kid, and asked him why Zhengyan was roast duck, and whether he was not full for lunch.

As a result, the kid still covered his buttocks and argued: The goose meat is coarse, and it is suitable for steaming and eating; The duck meat is fat, suitable for roasting and fragrant. Steamed goose is not to roast duck. ”

I couldn't help but stroke my palms and laughed: "If this son doesn't take the imperial examination, he is a good material to be a cook!" Laughing suddenly, "What is the result?" ”

As a result, Zhang Qiang tried to cheat, and he sat down by himself, His Majesty was furious, and scolded Zhang Shangshu on the spot, making him suspend his post and reflect. And because of the status of the client's close relatives, he was ordered not to intervene in the case of fraud in the imperial examination. ”

Pan Gongzi's expression was silent: "Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not been exempted from responsibility, and was summoned by His Majesty to reprimand, saying that he presided over the imperial examination well, and that there were frequent injustices and frauds, and ordered His Royal Highness to be grounded in the East Palace to think about it, and he could not come out without an edict." Now I can't even see him. ”

I heard cold sweat on my back: because of a straw bag Zhang Qiang, his entire Zhang family, and even the Ministry of Rites were excluded from the imperial examination fraud case, and the Ministry of Rites and Jinyi Wei were not easy to balance each other, and the balance of Dali Temple's impartiality was suddenly broken, and the two princes once again occupied a favorable position.

And what's worse is that the fat man has lost trust with his emperor's father, which is even worse for him, "Then how does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince plan to deal with it?" ”

Pan Gongzi sighed and made a helpless statement: "For today's plan, I can only rely on the impartiality of Lord Qingwen of Dali Temple." ”

I had nothing to say for a while, but I always felt in my heart that it was not a safe strategy to put my net worth and life on others.

The two of us were silent for a while, and I suddenly remembered another incident: "After we came back from Yangzhou, did Pan Gongzi pay attention to the whereabouts of the cloud rumor?" ”

Pan Gongzi was stunned by my question: "A clean person who is mixed with the dust, why do I pay attention to her?" After thinking about it again, she said, "Her backers are nothing more than Ping'an Hou and the Lake Bandits, and now they are all Fa-correct, she ...... Presumably it won't mix well. ”

I frowned and said, "I saw her last night." Yu Xiaorao, who forced the national eunuch Feng Sheng to hang himself, is a cloud rumor! ”

Pan Gongzi's fan knocked on the table, and his tone was a little incredible: "Cloud rumors? Does she still have the ability to come to Jinling to stir up the situation? ”

When it comes to the cloud rumors I saw last night, or purple smoke, there is always an indescribable awkwardness and weirdness in my heart.

Last night, I saw that familiar face with my own eyes, but Qin Lang said that Ziyan is not a cloud rumor.

Now that I think about it, the cloud rumors in Yangzhou City, with a weak willow supporting the wind, a pitiful posture, making good use of their beauty to mediate between men, that posture of a white lotus and a green tea, it is not like pretending.

And the purple smoke in Jinling City, with strong martial arts and strange skills, used the poisoned and crazy "female ghosts" in Jinling City to assassinate several household members in a row, and was obviously a well-trained killer.

These two people, except for the identical faces, it is really difficult for people to connect them.

Whether the cloud rumor and the purple smoke are the same person is really incomprehensible.

When Mr. Pan saw that I was convincing, he immediately promised to send someone to investigate. I sent him out the door, only to see the little crab crouching in the doorway with his knees crossed, drawing circles on the ground with an unhappy expression.

"What's wrong?" Little Crab has been with me for half a year, and is very close to my Leng family, after the accident of Xiaoshu, he has become more and more concerned, and brings back the rumors and news in the market to me every day.

"These three aunts and six wives in the streets and alleys are really boring! Ignorance! Vicious! The little crab raised its face, its eyes were red, and it looked like it wanted to cry.

I was surprised: the little crab's pleasing appearance has always been loved by middle-aged and elderly women, and it has only been half a year in our workshop, and the godmother has recognized three. "What did they say about you?"

"They're not talking about me, they're talking about you, boss!" The little crab's mouth was deflated, "And Brother Xiaoshu." ”

My heart trembled: "Don't be taboo, I'll listen to it." ”

"It is rumored in the market that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is nepotistic and not meritocracy, and no matter the brother-in-law in the court or the opposition, he must be promoted, and he can be described as the best brother-in-law in the world."

No wonder the little crab is angry, this rumor is really ugly.

The so-called brother-in-law of the prince "in the court" naturally refers to Zhang Qiang, the younger brother of the crown princess Miss Zhang; And "in the wild", there have long been rumors in Jinling City, saying that the girl and I are the fat man's confidante among the people, so the brother-in-law "in the wild" is undoubtedly Leng Xiaoshu.

These words are well-founded, just like the persimmon thrown at the statue of Confucius, which ruined the image and reputation of the crown prince.

Public opinion, again a damn public opinion tactic...... I clenched my fist hard, felt the slight pain of my fingernails piercing my palm, and reached out to pull the little crab up, "Come back with me, who will show me to be cowardly at the gate?" ”

The little crab was still indignant: "They ruined you so ugly, and you endured it like this?" ”

The girl sneered and deliberately raised her voice: "Since ancient times, rumors have stopped at the wise, and chats have stopped at hehe, for people who are full of feces, don't you leave quickly, do you still want to leave the smell?" ”

There has been no progress in Xiaoshu's case, so I have to put it aside for a while, and think about Zhang Qiang's case distractedly.

The reason why Zhang Qiang was on the list...... It's obvious: in his capacity as the secretary of his father's Ministry of Rites, it is not too easy for him to try to find a gunman.

While thinking about it, I picked up the information of the candidates for the examination from the information brought to me by Pan Gongzi to search, and it didn't take much effort to find Zhang Qiang's name, with his age, place of origin and other personal information written on the back, as well as a description of his appearance: five feet tall, chubby body, and a hairy black mole on the wing of his nose.

Hairy moles ...... I suddenly remembered the classic images in the film and television works of my previous life, and I always felt that the guy with such a mole on his face had a heart that loved to help people introduce people. Finally, in the column of Zhang Qiang's seat number, it was written: Wu ten.

It was such a coincidence that he was in the same row of prisons as Xiaoshu......

My mind moved, and I remembered someone.

For my visit, Master Mo of Dali Temple was a little surprised, but when I smiled and offered two packs of snacks from Lianhuju, saying that this is my Shangguan Kui Wood Wolf, specially explained that I sent it to Master Mo, he actually showed a girlish shy and twisted smile on his face.

I felt a chill down my back.

"I said it looks familiar, it turned out to be a handsome little brother who came with Kui Timber Wolf before." Master Mo's peach blossom eyes rippled, opened the dim sum paper package and let me let it go, so he took a piece and put it in his mouth, "Oh, it's so sweet, it's rare for Lord Kui Timber Wolf to think about me well." ”

My stomach churned, but I could only force myself to laugh and say: "My adult said, I was in a hurry that day, and I didn't care more about Lord Mo, so let me come and ask Lord Mo if his neck is better." ”

Master Mo smiled brighter and brighter: "Thanks to his thoughts, it is already much better." ”

"My lord also asked me to ask Lord Mo by the way, when I took the exam, can I still have some impression of the candidates sitting in the Wushi prison house?"

"Wu Shi ......" Master Mo raised his hand to support his forehead and made a thoughtful gesture, and then slapped his palm, "Oh! If it were other candidates, I really couldn't remember, but this No. 10 was unusual. ”

"Remember, sir?"

"The little son of Zhang Shangshu's family in the Ministry of Rites, how can he not remember?" Master Mo glanced at me with disgust, "I met once by chance before, is this little boy born...... The pearl is round and jade, but it is easy to recognize. ”

Hearing him say that he recognized it, I was a little surprised: "Are you sure, the one who went to the exam that day was the little son of the Zhang family himself?" ”

"Then can there be a fake?" Seeing that I didn't believe it, Master Mo deliberately stretched out his finger and pointed a little on the side of his nose, "The sign on the face of the little boy of the Zhang family, others can't learn it." ”

In this way, Zhang Qiang actually took the test by herself.

I was looking down and thinking, but I heard Master Mo ask, "I see that you are deeply appreciated by Kui Mu Wolf, and you must often follow him...... Did he mention me? ”
