Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Storm

The white ash with the thickness of the child's arm illuminates the yard. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info babbling and singing, which added a bit of softness to the scene.

It was a banquet, with more than a dozen tables, including the juzi of the new department, the local gentry, the scholars and politicians of Jinling City, the people of the Gongyuan and two examiners from the capital.

Fang Haoze and the top ten of the ten new department members sat at the main table. There were thirteen people sitting around this big table, except for the ten lifters, who were Liu Biao, the provincial academic administrator, Du Xiuming, the chief examiner, and Heng Ziping, the deputy examiner.

The banquet was held in the flower theater building of Jinling City, and the famous Dan who was just popular was invited to sing the song, which cost a lot of money this night, but naturally the rich gentry paid for it.

Opposite the main table is a stage and flanked by a large pond. It's a summer night, and the breeze is blowing, which is quite pleasant.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors. In the new imperial examination, Wu Feichen, who is in the fourth position, said to Liu Biao with a wine glass: "The student has studied hard for ten years, and he has not given up on Xuezheng, and finally won the promotion, I want to toast the adults first." ”

Wu Feichen is a tribute student of the Gongyuan, and he manages the Gongyuan Academy, to a certain extent, Wu Feichen can be regarded as Liu Biao's proud protégé.

If you want to say that this tribute student is not something that ordinary people can do, you have to be the best in the show to enter, and you have to go through various children's examinations and other passes, which can be regarded as a very orthodox imperial examination student.

"Well, Feichen is too modest, you are an outstanding student of the Gongyuan, and being able to raise people is also the result of your hard work. Liu Biao picked up the glass, lightly touched it on the table, and took the glass of wine.

"Most of the people in Jinke's house are classmates in the Gongyuan, but Xie Yuangong is the only one, but he is an eye-eye, I don't know where Xie Yuangong studied hard before?"

That Wu Feichen toasted, and did not stop, looked at Fang Haoze with his eyes, and suddenly asked.

It turned out that Wu Feichen didn't know where to find out that Fang Haoze took this year's exam, and he actually took the path of Nasu being imprisoned. The previous talent was famous, and he still donated money, so he despised a lot in his heart.

In the Daxin world, Nasu's imprisonment has always been among the rich or powerful, and the most orthodox scholars dislike it.

In particular, Fang Haoze, in this capacity, fell for the Xie Yuan of Jinke, which made Wu Feichen even more jealous. The boss in his heart was not convinced, always thinking that if Fang Haoze didn't win Xie Yuan, he would no longer be fourth, but would be in the top three.

So taking advantage of the banquet, Wu Feichen wanted to make trouble for the other party, so he asked out with bad intentions.

As soon as his question came out, Liu Biao and the other students in the Gongyuan Academy at the banquet couldn't help but look at Fang Haoze, and their eyes were also full of inquiry. Among them, many people also deeply doubt Fang Haoze's level.

Facing the eyes on all sides, Fang Haoze smiled frankly: "This person who doesn't know me in the same year should be normal." I've been studying hard all these years, and I haven't had the opportunity to enter the Tribute Academy, which is a pity. ”

"So that this same year knows that in order not to waste a few years, this time he is still in prison and comes to participate in the autumn festival, I hope you will not laugh. Fang Haoze also heard the student's sarcasm, but said the matter generously.

"Oh, that's the case, then it's no wonder that we, the Gongyuan students, have never seen it before. Wu Feichen said in a strange tone.

Fang Haoze didn't want to entangle with the villain, snorted lightly, and didn't continue to speak. He is a fourth-order cultivator, and he has essentially transformed into a mortal, this Wu Feichen is like an ant to him, and it is really difficult to be entangled with this person.

"Xie Yuangong is a great talent, I heard that Lord Du and the examiners of this province are full of praise for your article, I don't know if I am lucky enough to take a look. Wu Feichen said unrelentingly.

"At this time, you don't have to be so aggressive when you drink, everyone is the same year, and we will enter Beijing together in the coming year, and harmony is the main thing. Du Xiuming, who was above the wine table, saw that Fang Haoze was being criticized, so he opened his mouth to defend it.

"Lord Du is really protective of Xie Yuan. Heng Ziping, who was sitting next to him, said unwillingly at this time.

"What advice does Master Heng have?" Du Xiuming asked directly at Heng Ziping. He had long suspected that the other party had come here from Bai Yujing, and had bad intentions towards Fang Haoze during the scientific expedition, and even arranged a conspiracy.

"I don't have anything to say, aren't the current topics all raised by the examinees. Following the words of these people, I will say in passing that you defend Xie Yuan, which is also a fact. Heng Ziping replied.

"Two adults, drink wine, listen to music, and taste venison. Liu Biao hurriedly came out to be a peacemaker at this time.

"It turns out that the rumors in the market are not wrong, Xie Yuangong is really lucky, and he somehow went through the door of the examiner. Wu Feichen originally wanted to make trouble to the other party, but at this time, seeing that the two examiners were arguing, he muttered in a small voice.

Fang Haoze had already cultivated to the fourth order, and Wu Feichen's words were not small, so he naturally heard them. He raised his eyebrows, palpitated in his heart, couldn't help his temper in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to refute.

Before he could speak, Heng Ziping above spoke in a gloomy voice: "No, the rumors in the market are exaggerated, and they must reach Shangfeng's ears soon." Lord Du this time, it may not be good. ”

Fang Haoze saw at this time that Heng Ziping and Na Wu Feichen were singing and harmonizing, and they were playing a trick on themselves. So he slowly stood up: "All the princes here, the rumors stop at the wise, not to mention that the three adults have a high level of knowledge. Even if you are the same year, you are all dragons among people, and on occasions like the Deer Ming Banquet, you still don't know if the so-called dazzling is too unwise. ”

At this time, Fang Haoze knew that since the imperial examination, the deputy examiner Heng Ziping had been at odds with him, and there must be someone standing behind him. can mobilize the court officials to deal with himself, and if he can't make a plan, he thinks of spreading rumors in the market, and he doesn't have to think about it to know that it must be the big prince.

"If you are not convinced by my article, you can come up with another question on the spot, and we will do it, which is not a bad conversation. As soon as Fang Haoze's momentum was released, a confident emotion was released, which made everyone present look sideways.

"There's no need to ask questions on the spot, and I'm afraid you won't have time to show it. ”

At this time, Heng Ziping suddenly spoke, and then clapped his hands again: "Someone in the court sent me a secret report today, and it has been confirmed that Wuzhou Xie Yuan made peace with the chief examiner Du Xiuming, played tricks, and sought to cheat in the imperial examination." ”

As soon as he clapped his hands, a group of soldiers came from nowhere, passed through the tables of the gentry and the people of the tribute court, all the way to the main table, and surrounded the main table.

A sinister Heng Ziping, he deliberately chose to make trouble at the Luming banquet, even if it was just a rumor in the market, after the attention of the gentry and the new lifters present, more than half of the rumors will be confirmed.

Being able to mobilize soldiers is not within the scope of a deputy director of the Ministry of Rites. Even Li Jinyu, the governor of Wuzhou, did not have the right to use soldiers lightly.

Fang Haoze's eyes swept over the surrounding circle of soldiers, and he was more and more sure that behind this Heng Ziping, it was the eldest prince who was standing.

"Okay, good, I didn't expect today's Luming banquet, Heng Ziping, you gave me such a surprise. Du Xiuming laughed angrily and stood up from his seat. "What do you want to do when you recruit so many soldiers?

"That's not it, it's just that you and Xin Xie Yuan are going to be sent to Wuzhou Prison, waiting for someone from above to torture them, and you can't indulge in fraud cases. Heng Ziping's face was smug. "Left and right soldiers, take these two down for me!"
