Chapter 290: Let people bear the guilt
In the imperial study, after listening to the cries of the Liu family's father and son, Emperor Jingfeng was furious, his rare emotions were out of control, and he kicked Liu Jingnan to the ground: "Idiot! How dare you! ”
"Not to mention the gambling debt of 6,000 taels of silver, he actually came up with such a bad idea to collect money, this is a imperial examination! Leaking such a thing as a test question can be used by you to advertise! Don't you want your head? ”
Emperor Jingfeng kicked him and was still angry, and beat Liu Jingnan to the ground, wishing that he could kick him to death: "One and another, count it yourself, how many times has this been in trouble!" I want me to wipe your ass for you when you come back, I knew that I should have taken the opportunity to beat you to death on the day of the court fight! Save yourself from poking out such a big basket today! ”
Liu Jingnan had never seen Emperor Jingfeng like this, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to hide because of his identity, so he could only beg for mercy next to his father.
Liu Qingli knelt on the ground and trembled to pull the corner of Emperor Jingfeng's clothes: "Your Majesty is angry......"
"And you!"
Emperor Jingfeng turned around and pulled out the corner of his clothes suddenly, looked at Liu Qingli's wrinkled old face, resisted the urge to kick him, and roared: "You have been mediocre and have no achievements in this life, and the only credit is to give birth to a daughter like Jing Yao." ”
"With this alone, I have promoted you all the way to the position of Marquis of Xuanyang, you have status, you have wealth, and I have given you so much, not to mention worrying about me, can't you even make me worry!"
Liu Qingli trembled and knelt on the ground: "Old, the old minister knows his mistakes...... Your Majesty is angry......"
"Wrongdoing? You know what a is wrong! Let's not say that you have repeatedly taught you, let's just say that this time, if it wasn't for my Flying Fish Guard who found out about you, you would have taken the initiative to ask me for guilt? I'm afraid that I would have been counting the money behind closed doors a long time ago! ”
The bold fool is simply invincible in the world, and Emperor Jingfeng can't figure out how the father and son of the Liu family are stupid even if he wants to break his head, so he gritted his teeth and said: "This is the imperial examination, the imperial examination!" The whole country has attracted attention, and the imperial court only holds it once in three years, and the fraud in the imperial examination is to kill the head! Do you dare to think about collecting money on this, and your head is caught by the door! ”
Liu Jingnan's face was full of tears, and his voice was crying: "Gambling house...... It's urging over there, I'm afraid that I won't be able to repay the debt, and if it falls into the hands of others, I will have to affect His Royal Highness in the end...... What's more, we just made up a name, not really cheating in the imperial examination......"
"Dare to mention Che'er!"
Emperor Jingfeng was furious, and he kicked him in the chest again: "If something happens back, you have to use Che'er as a shield, and other people's uncles are all supporting their nephews, Che'er is good, and he will take the blame for you in turn." Why is he so unlucky to have such an uncle as you! ”
"Is it really leaked, what is the difference between the exam questions? Listen to the ears of people who don't know the truth, aren't they all cheating in the imperial examination? The group of scholars outside is making a lot of trouble, no matter what, I don't believe that there is no fraud in this test, if your affairs are poked out at this time, you guess they will think that you really missed the question, or fake missed the question! ”
The Liu family's father and son did not leak the exam questions in the first place, if this exam could end smoothly, maybe they could really collect thousands of taels of money unknowingly.
However, the gap between the proportion of the north and the south in this year's examination is too large, which has caused widespread dissatisfaction among the scholars in the north, and if the scholars know that the Liu family father and son "leaked the exam questions", they will definitely be excited, thinking that the Liu family father and son are the culprits, and they must see their heads on the ground.
Thinking of this, the fire in Emperor Jingfeng's chest became more and more uncontrollable: "My Flying Fish Guard can find you, maybe others will find out in two days, and it is impossible to hide it." Anyway, that group of candidates is not satisfied with this result, so I might as well make a mistake, declare that you are the people who cheated in the imperial examination, and take advantage of the situation to deal with you and gag their mouths, so that everyone can be happy! ”
The father and son of the Liu family were so frightened that the six gods had no owner, and they moved over with a rolling belt, hugged Emperor Jingfeng's legs and cried and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty!" Fraud in the imperial examination is to kill the head, we didn't leak the exam questions! If we die, the Second Highness will have no maternal support at all! ”
Emperor Jingfeng was so angry that he kicked one away: "Then you say, what should I do!" The northern scholars can't hold it down, and you have many enemies in the court, and the missing things will definitely be poked out by others sooner or later. At that time, if the ministers and all the scholars will put pressure on me to condemn you, I will admit it even if I don't admit it! ”
Liu Jingnan sobbed, rolled his eyes, and said cautiously: "Didn't you listen to Feiyuwei just now...... What kind of Gu Yunji from the Hanlin Academy, is he also suspected of fraud in the imperial examination? It just so happened that we used his name to promote our books, and he was also involved in us. ”
"Or-let's take advantage of the situation to blame Gu Yunji for missing questions and fraud, and let him bear this crime? Anyway, he's just a junior official, and I don't think anyone will be held accountable......"
"It's all this time, and you're still thinking about making others take the blame! You really don't have any remorse! ”
Emperor Jingfeng's eyes bulged widely, and he grabbed Liu Jingnan's neck, with a hideous expression: "Also, do you think Gu Yunji is just a junior official of Hanlin?" His surname is Gu, the Gu of the Songjiang Gu family! Xu Chengyu is his teacher, and the entire Xu family is his wife's family, as well as Cheng Yan, the champion of the last palace examination, the Su family of Dingguo Gong, and the king of Pingyang County...... are all related to him. ”
"Let's just say that Gu Yuanhui, the secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and the minister of the cabinet, is Gu Yunji's cousin, do you think that if these things are pushed on his nephew's head, he will willingly admit it?"
Liu Jingnan was pinched by him, his face turned red, and he was almost out of breath: "But ...... A nephew is a nephew...... No matter what, it's not as important as a son......"
Emperor Jingfeng's blood instantly cooled down and let go.
Liu Jingnan made a pun, saying that Gu Yunji was just Gu Yuanhui's cousin, and Gu Yuanhui could not fight for his life to save him; is also saying that their Liu family is the mother family of the second prince after all, and abolishing the Liu family is equivalent to cutting off the second prince's greatest help in the future - the mother family can be wasted and can be delayed, but it can't be without, otherwise it will be like the former eldest prince.
He was reminding Emperor Jingfeng to think about his son.
Emperor Jingfeng is the emperor, and he is the honor of the Ninety-Five, as long as he wants to protect his son, the ten Songjiang Gu clans together can't block his way, and one Gu Yunji is nothing.
Thinking like this, Emperor Jingfeng's eyes were deep, and his heart gradually became biased.
At this time, a flying fish guard came in outside: "Your Majesty, Gu Yunji of the Imperial Prison has provided a conspirator to come out." ”
Emperor Jingfeng's eyes narrowed, and his cold eyes raised slightly: "Who is it?" ”
Feiyu Wei was silent for a moment, and said: "The son of Fang Shu, the head of the cabinet, and the editor of Hanlin Fang Zigui." ”
