The palace test came and ended quickly, this time the question was asked about Xuanling's frontier policy, which was considered a medium distance, Chen Daoxuan had studied it before, so for him, as long as he played normally.

When the list came down, it was not surprising that he became the champion of this imperial examination, and he was also the first three-yuan and first talent in the history since the founding of Xuanling.

But before he could share the good news with Bai Ting, he learned that Bai Ting and Bao Qi were both put in prison because they took the opportunity of the palace test to provoke the emperor and contradict the saint!

It wasn't until he really inquired deeply that he learned that Bai Ting and Bao Qi were outspoken and admonished, and the content of the admonition attracted the attention of the auditor, and they were directly determined that the two were suspected of bullying the monarch and were sent to prison.

Although the palace examination countermeasures have relatively strict stylistic regulations, the court scholars who tried to point out Chen Shizheng's lack of can always overcome these restrictions and find a breakthrough in speaking out. It's just that I didn't expect such a thing to happen to my friend.

To say that the biggest threat to Xuanling today is not the constant wars on the border, nor some perennial natural and man-made disasters, but the dominance of Zhu Xiu, the Taibao above the imperial court, who has forced other officials to a dead end.

During Zhu Xiu's reign, those admonitions involving criticism of current affairs were intercepted or used to persecute those who admonished them, and all the people in the Manchu Dynasty were panicked, and the emperor was cut off from contact with the officials below, and became blind.

So this time, someone thought of the ancient method of admonishing in the palace test, because this is the place where Zhu Xiu's hand is relatively short, and it is also a great opportunity to directly admonish the emperor.

But obviously they still underestimated Zhu Xiu's ability, but they didn't expect that the reviewers had already become Zhu Xiu's minions.

Not only did the content of the admonition not let the emperor Lao'er see it, but he also put himself in, you must know that this has entered the prison of Xuanling Yingtianfu, and it is difficult to get out alive!

Chen Daoxuan paced in the courtyard alone, sighing constantly, "Why are you two so stupid? We are ordinary people, how can we afford to provoke these big people in the officialdom, now it's okay, what can we do?"

He really wanted to rescue his two best friends, but although he is now a champion, he is still just a name, and he doesn't have any titles, so he will take himself after acting rashly.

Just when Chen Daoxuan was thinking hard about meditation countermeasures, a man in black suddenly fell from the sky, although he couldn't see his face clearly, Chen Daoxuan still recognized the embroidered spring knife in the hand of the man in black at a glance.

"Jinyiwei!" frightened him and hurriedly retreated!

Jinyiwei has always traveled for the purpose of killing, and a person will be scared when he comes to the door of Jinyiwei.

He knew that if it was really Jinyiwei who came and went to his life, he would not be able to escape the fate of death as an ordinary person no matter what, so he still mustered up the courage to ask: "Who are you and why did you break into this courtyard?

Just when he thought that today was more auspicious, the man did not say a word, left a letter and leaped up from the courtyard, and disappeared without a trace, coming and going in a hurry, coming and going without a trace, making him confused.

When he opened the letter and understood the contents of the letter, he slowly closed his eyes, pondered for a long time, and when he opened it again, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he said to himself: "Qin Yu, I'm sorry for you. ”

——

The southeast corner of Tianfu should be strong, and the tiger head is strong.

The prison of Xuanling is a double door and double wall, the wall is built high, and the raccoon sweat is painted on it, which resembles a tiger beast, so it is called "tiger head prison".

The prison was dark and damp, with no light all day, and the air was filled with a disgusting stench.

A man with a disheveled hair was dragged into the prison by two jailers, the man was ragged and covered with horrific wounds. The originally handsome and handsome face may have endured this unimaginable pain, and it has lost its former brilliance, and it is as white as white paper. This person is none other than Bai Ting.

In another cell, a man in the same situation saw Bai Ting and shouted, "Brother Bai, how are you? It's okay! Wake up, Brother Bai!"

Bai Ting, who was in a coma, slowly opened his eyes, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "It's not dead yet, why are you so happy?"

Bao Qi breathed a long sigh of relief, and scolded with a smile: "Sure enough, a literati like you is not good at the body, so what is the matter, so you will fall into a coma, you look at your Uncle Bao is still alive and well!"

Bai Ting fell to the ground and squinted at Bao Qi with disdain, smiling contemptuously.

However, Bao Qi didn't say anything wrong, Bao Qi was tortured before him, although he was going to die or live when he came back, but at least he didn't pass out like him, and now he is alive again.

But this incident hurt him, if he hadn't been involved in him, Bao Qi wouldn't have to suffer this prison.

Bai Ting did not come purely for the imperial examination from the beginning, he had already been entrusted by others to risk his life to advise the emperor long before entering Beijing.

That's why he's still alive, and these people have used all kinds of criminal laws against them in order to force them to tell the people behind them.

In fact, he couldn't say that he was instructing, but when Bai Ting knew about this request, he readily agreed, and he didn't even think much about it.

Bai Ting struggled to stand up, looked at Bao Qi in the opposite cell and asked in a low voice, "Hey, do you regret it?"

Bao Qi didn't look at him this time, he leaned against the iron door of the cell, turned his back to the white pavilion, and smiled soothingly, "I regret dying, I would have known that I wouldn't have waded into this troubled water." ”

Bai Ting never thought of inviting Bao Qi to participate in this plan, but once Bao Qi happened to see a secret letter, and then insisted on participating.

At first, Bai Ting felt incredible, because in Bai Ting's impression, Bao Qi was a selfish and shrewd person to the extreme, and he would never do something like this with his head on his waist, but after a long time of contact, he discovered the other side of Bao Qi.

Bao Qi looked down at his legs, which were a pair of very shocking legs, with minced flesh sticking to white bones, and white particles mixed in the flesh, which were coarse salt.

There was a burning sensation in his leg all the time, but he ignored it or was numb.

When he Bao Qi was just an adult, there was no longer an elder and brother in the family, he had always been alone, and he couldn't say that he was lonely, but loneliness was indeed what he had always enjoyed.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is a scoundrel and has no words, but in his heart he has always been a child who will never grow up, and he wants to be loved but no one will ever understand him.

He hates the feeling of being pitied, and he doesn't want to see the eyes that pity him, which will make him think of his true self all the time, the self that will cry inexplicably in the middle of the night, and will continue to sink when he is alone.

So he became fierce, like a mad dog that bites people when he sees them, so that everyone does not dare to approach him, everyone fears him, everyone hates him, and this is the meaning of his existence.

The only thought may be the eldest lady of the Qin family, her eyes are the cleanest he has ever seen.

As for why he insisted on wading through this troubled water, it was purely because he felt that he was tired of being alive, and every day like this, even if he got fame, the result would not change, and the days would still be like this, and he would always be alone.

He raised his bare feet, and suddenly laughed miserably, and his voice was terrible, like a ghost echoing in the prison, "In my dream, the monk of Buddhism is participating in meditation, and three thousand people come to Feier in a dream, and when I look down, I see a barefoot man." ”

Bai Ting was unhappy, slammed his fist on the ground, and said indignantly: "The good boy is going to fight with my poets, come on!"

Bao Qi casually picked up the chain in his hand, knocked on the prison door, and made a bang, "Come! I'll play a song for you!"

Bai Ting thought slightly, and said loudly: "Changxiao Liang Fu Yin, when will you see Yangchun? Rather shy white hair shines on clear water, and thinks about the economy at the right time...... You don't see, the Gaoyang drunkard is drafting, and the Changyi Shandong Longzhun Gong ...... The madman is still like this, not to mention that the strong man is the leader of the group! I want to climb the dragon to see the master, and Lei Gong slammed the drum to the sky. There are many jade girls who throw pots next to the emperor, laugh and turn on the electric light at three o'clock, and the wind and rain are obscure. The nine doors are impassable, and those who deduct the gate with their foreheads are angry. The day does not shine according to my sincerity, and the country has nothing to worry about...... The wise can roll up the foolish, and the world sees me lightly. The three heroes of Nanshan are ranked together, and the two peaches are killed. Wu Chu made the army without drama, and Yafzhan was in vain......"

A poem, written in one go, tragic and magnificent like thunder, resounding throughout the prison!

"What kind of broken poem?" A long poem that would have been famous for eternity if it had been circulated, but unexpectedly, Bao Qi scolded directly!

Bai Ting was so angry that he almost didn't vomit blood, and Bao Qi continued: "That is, it is just the best in ancient and modern times, and it still lacks the ability to fly on land. ”

Bai Ting blew his beard and glared and replied, "I almost buried you!"

Bao Qi laughed, "Jing is talking nonsense, what kind of mountain immortal do you think you are?"

The matter of Baiting looking for immortals has been heard of in the rivers and lakes, but it is a pity that immortals are so difficult to find, and the lack of fate is all vain.

Bao Qi suddenly raised a hand, the chains in his hand clanged, his back to Bai Ting, his voice was majestic, sad and indignant, "Brother Bai, if you want snow in the evening, can you drink a cup?"

Bai Ting sat still, raised his empty hand, and replied loudly: "Eliminate eternal sorrow with you!"
