After wearing the book, he was favored by the villains in line

Lou Rongrong didn't expect that Nan Zhihan would lead her around the Leng Mansion, and finally stopped outside the courtyard where the gentlemen lived.

Because the gentlemen liked to be quiet, no one passed by outside the courtyard, so it was very quiet.

Lou Rongrong didn't think that Nan Zhihan brought her here on purpose to pick a quiet place, so she just stared at Nan Zhihan.

Nan Zhihan smiled awkwardly, waved towards a big locust tree outside the courtyard wall, and said:

"Jing Niang, come out, this is the fluff I told you about."

As the voice fell, a slender figure appeared behind the locust tree. It was a little girl in blue clothes with a delicate face. She looked two or three years older than Nan Zhihan. Her eyes were red and clear and ignorant like a deer. There is a bit of vigilance and distrust of strangers.

Nan Zhihan called her a few times, and after hesitating for a long time, she came out from behind the locust tree, came to Lou Rongrong, and saluted politely:

"Meet Princess Tianlu."

Lou Rongrong didn't recognize anyone, she still looked at Nan Zhihan, waiting for her introduction.

Nan Zhihan hesitated and said:

"This is Jing Niang, her father...is Officer Lin Jian from Yushitai, one of the officials in charge of the family record during the provincial examination."

As soon as these words came out, Lou Rongrong immediately understood Nan Zhihan's real purpose.

In the past two days, the cheating in the imperial examination has already caused a lot of trouble in the capital.

In order to know which exam papers had been exchanged, the imperial court posted the papers of all those who won the exams. Except for those who knocked on Deng Wengu, more exam papers stood up and said their own. Answer sheets were also switched.

Although there are some people who fish in troubled waters and want to take advantage of it, but the momentum is so huge that it is not easy to be good.

Because of the fact that the cheating was originally due to the fact that the answer sheet did not correspond to the name and place of origin of the examinee, the most suspected person was the official who was in charge of sealing the envoy and envoys, and the second was to put forward the ambiguous name in the file according to the evaluated answer sheet. The reference officer and editor of the original volume.

But to achieve the final effect of fraud, officials at various joints are suspected of accepting bribes to help with fraud.

Those candidates who found out that they replaced others' answer sheets and got on the list were sent to prison. Not only the students who were replaced were angry, but also all the students in the world who devoted themselves to studying and hoped to be named on the gold list one day, under the influence of the general trend , the third division had no choice but to put all officials suspected of participating in fraud into prison.

At this time, the big prisons in the capital are like the inns of various families during the provincial examination. They are full of people who are full of worries about the future. What the officials among them thought about was whether they could keep their official careers, or the big round head around their necks.

What's funny is that some of the candidates who replaced others on the list and were sent to prison also complained, saying that they did not participate in the fraud at all, and their answer sheets were replaced because they didn't know what happened.

It's a pity that the third department is already very busy at this time. Even if they want to investigate carefully, the condemnation of the students all over the world makes them dare not act lightly. They can only follow the public opinion and investigate the officials who are in charge of the examination. , It means to calm down the anger of the people.

At such a time of panic, the family members of the officials who were sent to the prison naturally tried their best to prove their family's innocence and get them out of the prison.

And this Jing Niang, whose father, as a family record officer, belongs to the kind who would be the first to be beheaded, so naturally he was even more anxious.

Lou Rongrong could imagine with her toes that the other party must have come to find Nan Zhihan whose father is the envoy of the Dali Temple in the third division, and Nan Zhihan had no choice but to let Jingniang come to find her.

She looked at Nan Zhihan with a half-smile, but the other party had a ghost in his heart, so he didn't dare to look at her directly, subconsciously lowered his head, and said to Lou Rongrong:

"Jingniang's father is a good official, and he will never accept bribes for personal gain, let alone participate in fraud, Rongrong, please, help Jingniang, you are the righteous sister of the regent king, and you have saved your majesty, if it is you If so, it can be done.”

Lou Rongrong asked curiously:

"Since Jing Niang is so pitiful, why don't you help her? Your father is the Minister of Dali Temple. His Majesty ordered the three divisions to interrogate and investigate the case of imperial examination fraud. Your father is one of the chief envoys of the three divisions. You can go directly to your father. Wouldn't it be easier than coming to find me?"

Nan Zhihan gritted her teeth and said:

"I wanted to find my father, but my sister said... just because my father is the Minister of Dali Temple, the chief envoy of the third department, and presided over the case of fraudulent imperial examinations, so I can't show favoritism. Otherwise, Jing Niang and her father are innocent. Everyone will be punished for this, and it will also harm my father and us."

Lou Rongrong asked:

"Then you asked me to find my elder brother and His Majesty. Could it be that they can be selfish? Not to mention the majesty of the emperor, if you want to give justice to the scholars in the world, just talk about my brother. Your father can't be selfish. Could it be that my brother is selfish? Is it legal and reasonable? Have you ever thought about it, you are afraid of your father being implicated, so am I not afraid of my brother being implicated?"

Nan Zhihan opened her mouth to argue, but in the end she was silenced.

Seeing this, Jingniang gritted her teeth, and slowly knelt down in front of Lou Rongrong, her voice was soft and hoarse, obviously she had cried many times:

"Don't blame Zhihan, it's Jingniang who is impatient and chaotic. She wants to try every method she can think of. She has begged everyone who can. I beg the princess to have pity on me. My father is not in good health and can't bear the cold. Jing Mother went to see him once, because the other officials in the prison are older than him, they don't care about his life, and in just a few days, he has become so thin that he is out of shape."

As she spoke, her crying came out subconsciously, and she stretched her neck hard, trying to suppress her crying:

"It's fine if all the adults investigate according to the order. My father must be innocent, but what Jingniang is most afraid of is that they can't find anything, so they use my father as a scapegoat. He...he is innocent and proud, he shouldn't Suffer this injustice."

Nan Zhihan on the side chimed in and said:

"Jingniang lost her mother when she was young, and her father never remarried, and raised her alone. The salary of the admonishment officer was not much, and Jingniang's grandmother was seriously ill, so most of the monthly salary was used to give The old man has been cured, and her father is afraid that Jingniang will not have enough to eat, so he eats less than Jingniang on weekdays, so he has been in poor health."

Jing Niang tried to stop her in panic from the very beginning, not wanting Nan Zhihan to tell Lou Rongrong about her family background.

But Nan Zhihan insisted on continuing:

"She is still hiding the fact that her grandmother and father have been imprisoned. Uncle Liu is in a difficult situation in prison. Jingniang doesn't even have money to pay the jailer, so she is begging everywhere by herself."

"Rongrong, please, I'm really not afraid of getting angry, so I'm pushing this matter to you. I really can't think of a way. You can make people like Xiao Yu'er who are playful like Xiao Yu'er be admitted to the Leng family. Family learning will definitely solve Jingniang's predicament at this time."
