At the end of the application period, the first day of testing came to an end, and it will continue tomorrow.

Xiao Rui met the chief examiner, Qiu Zhigang, and set off back to the palace.

Jia Xu and Guo Jia stared at the situation of the Wenhui Examination, and they also came back at this time. According to them, in order to target Zhou Mingfa, the right servant, Xiao Jing strictly played his role as an accompanying prisoner, and closely watched the withdrawal inspection when entering the Tribute Court. Anyone who dares to carry a cheat sheet with the intention of cheating will be directly disqualified and honored.

Many candidates who were lucky enough to do so were dragged out by the Imperial Army after they were discovered.

"There will be three subjects in the exam. This is the day, and the body search of the Gongyuan Court is only the first hurdle. Even if it is strict, it can only find out some cheating candidates. Other cheating candidates have various methods, how can they be searched?" Xiao Rui laughed.

Jia Xu nodded, and said: "It's hard for these candidates. They have tried their best to cheat, and they have come up one after another. Unfortunately, this time they will inevitably be implicated in the fraud case, and the bamboo basket will be empty."

"No hurry! When the fraud case is revealed after the rankings are released, hand this butcher knife to Xiao Jing. He will not be stingy with swinging the knife." Xiao Rui said with a smile: "This time, in order to confirm the fraud case, We hid the examination question book and didn't disclose it until five days ago, just to prevent the news from leaking out, and now, even if Zhou Mingfa heard the wind, he has nothing to do."

Guo Jia also said with a smile: "The source of the fraud case was found out, and it was leaked from Zhou Mingfa's son Zhou Xingchen. Even Xiao Yiheng will be powerless to recover."

The three of you said what you said to me, Zhou Mingfa's crime is a certainty, and there is no chance to get rid of the crime!

Chapter 257: Xiao Qingqing's Overheard

After dinner, the night is dark.

Xiao Rui asked Li Yuanfang to call Lu Xian, saw his respectful and cautious appearance, and was satisfied with his calm temperament, so he asked: "Lu Xian, since you can take part in the martial arts examination, you must have something special. It's a pity to fail this time, but if you have outstanding abilities, I can give you a place to perform and stay by my side in the future, are you willing? However, you have to let me see your ability."

Lu Xian was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "The villain is willing, and it is an honor for the villain to be appreciated by His Highness King Xian. Although the villain is not good at kung fu, he likes to jump up and down since he was a child. In addition to his short stature, he has developed an agile skill. Please Your Highness give the villain a chance to show off!"

Xiao Rui nodded, knocked on the wooden table, and said with a sudden smile: "How about this, you go to Chu Wang's mansion, go to Chu Wang's study, and bring out something for this king, do you have the guts? If you can do it, This king believes in your skill."

Lu Xian was stunned, thinking about the gains and losses in his heart, he didn't dare to hesitate for too long, nodded and said: "I understand."

Xiao Rui smiled and asked Li Yuanfang to send him out.

When Li Yuanfang came back, Xiao Rui smiled and said: "After the imperial examination, I will leave the capital. Wu Zhanfa and Wei Guangdi will stay in Huben Pavilion. Li Kui is too reckless and his appearance is too recognizable, so I will stay in the capital to protect Mr. Wenhe." .And you are by my side, so you can't do everything yourself, just lacking a person who has the courage and scheming, and has a clean background, so he can be reused."

Li Yuanfang agreed: "What Your Highness said is absolutely true."

Xiao Rui sighed in his heart, now the Advent Point is only 60/100, even if he completes the two tasks assigned by the system, he can only add [-] points to the Advent Point, which is still ten points away from the Advent Point.

It would be great if I could come down again before leaving the capital!

Half an hour later, Lu Xian came back and stole a treasure from Chu Wang Xiao Yiheng's study.

It was a seal, Xiao Yiheng's personal seal, which was used to practice calligraphy and seal calligraphy and painting on weekdays. It was not very useful, but Lu Xian's ability to steal it showed his skill.

"Very good! You have proved yourself. When you came to Chu Palace, did you see any powerful people in secret?" Xiao Rui asked casually.

Lu Xian said respectfully: "There is a middle-aged man who is extremely perceptive. I was not familiar with the environment when I first entered the Chu Palace, so I was almost discovered by this man."

"Your Highness, it should be Liu Feixue, the fifth-rank expert next to King Chu." Li Yuanfang said.

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "You will stay in Xianwang's mansion from now on, are you willing?"

"This is the honor of the villain. Thank you for your trust. The villain is willing to follow His Highness, no matter what you order." Lu Xian was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down to pay his allegiance.

"Okay!" Xiao Rui smiled, gave Li Yuanfang a look, and asked him to take Lu Xian down.

.......

In Ruyang Prince's Mansion, Xiao Qingqing is embroidering.

Her embroidery level is getting higher and higher. A mandarin duck is a mandarin duck. I believe that after being seen by someone, she will no longer make fun of it as a big goose.It's a pity that he will leave Beijing in a few days. Although he only left for a year, Xiao Qingqing is still worried, especially when Xiao Rui came to Ruyang Palace last time, she overheard the conversation between Xiao Rui and her father , Since then, she has been secretly vigilant...

Tonight, another mysterious person sneaked into the mansion. She never knew about it before, and she discovered it after careful observation during this period of time.

She is waiting.

After burning a stick of incense, her personal maid Tweety came back in a hurry, panting.

Xiao Qingqing quickly asked: "Did you find out?"

Tweety nodded, and said: "I found it, it's Mr. Ouyang, the doorman next to the master, and he brought two people. He arranged to live in the guest room. I dare not approach, so I don't know what those two people look like .”

"Has my father seen those two people?" Xiao Qingqing asked.

Cui'er shook her head and said, "No, but Mr. Ouyang went to see the master and sent out the guards and maids. It seems that there is something important to discuss."

Xiao Qingqing bit her lip and said, "Go and prepare refreshments for me, I want to send them to my father, hurry up!"

"Yes..." Cui'er didn't dare to neglect, she just breathed a sigh of relief and trotted out.

When the tea was ready, Xiao Qingqing went to find King Ruyang with it in person.

Near King Ruyang's study, patrolling guards found Xiao Qingqing, but were stopped.

"Princess, the prince has an order. He is dealing with important matters, so no one will see him." The guard smiled sarcastically, but they knew the temper of their princess, so they wouldn't let him see him?Swing the whip up to see who dares to stop it.

"Oh, is that so? That's fine." Xiao Qingqing didn't get angry, just smiled and turned around to leave.

The guards looked at each other, and a thought rose in their hearts, did my lady take the wrong medicine?Or did you forget to take your medicine?Is this still my fiery young lady?

The guards continued to patrol in a daze, Xiao Qingqing turned around and came back, touching the backyard house.

She approached the study quietly, overhearing the conversation inside.

"Don't worry, my lord. The villain understands that he is no longer what he used to be. He must plan some changes. If he is not sure, he will never act rashly."

Xiao Qingqing knew that this was Mr. Ouyang, her father's retainer. She had only met him a few times and was not familiar with him. She only remembered that he was a peaceful middle-aged man.

"Nine times out of ten? It was also out of ten last time, and it failed, and it even aroused his doubts and temptations." King Ruyang sighed, and said, "Why are you so impatient? In the process of fighting for the crown prince, whoever loses? Winning is fleeting, it is better to let other people do it."

"My lord, that one doesn't want him to lose, but wants him to die."

King Ruyang sneered and said: "A man is taller than the sky, and his life is thinner than paper. Ouyang, for Qingqing's sake, I can't do anything this time either! I won't be able to do it in the future!"

There was a sudden silence in the house.

Xiao Qingqing heard her own name, for herself?So who is his father trying to kill?

At this moment, Xiao Qingqing's heart suddenly picked up, as if it missed a beat, and her whole body was shaking, so that the tray in her hand shook, and a stack of snacks fell to the ground.

Snapped…

"Who!"

Suddenly, King Ruyang's shout came from the room, followed by the sound of breaking the door. A mysterious man wrapped in black came out holding a sword. When Xiao Qingqing reacted, the sword had already rested on Xiao Qingqing's shoulder. .

"Stop!" King Ruyang, who came out later, saw that it was his own daughter, and immediately called to stop.

King Ruyang came out, followed by that Mr. Ouyang, plus this man in black, it turned out that there were three people in the room.
