After rebirth, he was pampered by the disabled prince.

Chapter 53 This night is destined to be sleepless

Although he was arrested and taken into Dali Temple today, this matter is not new. He was working for Xiao Yan, so even if the matter couldn't be turned around, he should still tell him. But Xiao Yan thought that he could no longer stand up, so he gave up on him.

The main reason for this is because Xiao Yan knows very well that he is just Tang Hongyu's second best choice, so once Tang Hongyu loses its use value, he will immediately discard it.

Tang Hongyu thought of Mu Xinghe's evaluation of Xiao Yan, and suddenly shifted his focus to the sentence "You can give up on anyone except yourself, including your own mother." But didn't Princess Xian have a difficult delivery on the day she gave birth to him, and she almost didn't keep his size?

"Could it be that Princess Xian is not dead!" Tang Hongyu was startled by his guess, and then thought of the old events when the emperor was still a prince, and then thought of the time when Prince Xian suppressed the rebellion...

No, he couldn't let himself continue to think wildly. He felt that the world was probably really going to change.

He stood up and shouted, "I want to see Your Majesty. I have evidence to present to Your Majesty."

Tang Hongyu met the emperor as he wished, and he presented the fake letter, "Your Majesty, this is the letter that Wei Chen received before the imperial examination. Wei Chen checked that this letter was a counterfeit, and also carefully checked the imperial examination matter. Wei Chen did not I found out but didn’t report it, so I’m guilty!”

The emperor took a look at the letter and saw that the person signing it was the uncle of the third prince. This man was a high official in the imperial court, so the emperor naturally recognized his handwriting.

The letter stated that if you write the word "Guangming" in the test paper, you will be admitted, and I hope he will be merciful. As the chief registrar, in addition to editing the examination questions, he is also the examiner of this imperial examination. He needs to judge each one after handing in the papers.

The emperor shouted angrily and threw the letter away, "You are guilty. Even if you didn't know it at first and couldn't find anything out, you couldn't refute it. After the examination, you should know how to do it when you see the word "Guangming" on the test paper." In response, you have always concealed it and refused to retaliate! Now if you come to retaliate, who are you making wedding clothes for? "

Tang Hongyu could not argue, all because the letter to him at that time did not write the word "Guangming", but "Yingzheng". He had approved several test papers with the word "Guangming".

No matter how the writing was written, those with Yingzheng were derogated by him. By the time he knew that the real code was "light", it was already too late.

It’s not that he hasn’t verified the authenticity of this letter. He knew it was true, so he did so. If he can rely on this imperial examination to defeat the third prince in one fell swoop, his efforts will be rewarded.

Moreover, his dismissal test paper can also be used as his life-saving medicine.

But he never thought that he was smart but was mistaken. Now even if he comes up with a real letter and tells the emperor that he was framed first, it will have no effect.

Because the word "yingzheng" in that letter was written with a special pen and ink, and when time goes by, it will dissipate and appear as the word "bright". Moreover, the uncle of the third prince will admit that this matter was indeed written by him.

No matter what Tang Hongyu did, he could not escape from the comments on the test paper and the testimony of the third prince's uncle.

Tang Hongyu kowtowed, tears streaming down his face, and said with deep affection, "Wei Chen is guilty. Wei Chen got two pieces of news, one is Yingzheng and the other is Guangming. Wei Chen knows that this letter is fake, so the two Guangmings The words must not be true, so I thought I was smart and dismissed Ying Zheng, but I never thought that I had fallen into someone else's trap. I am unworthy of Your Majesty's kindness. I... deserve to die!"

The emperor had already seen the test papers. Tang Hongyu had crossed out all the test papers with Ying Zheng, whether good or bad, but he only gave a circle to the test papers with Guang Zheng if they were really well written.

Of course, the emperor did not believe that Tang Hongyu would participate in imperial examination fraud. But his clever move really angered the emperor.

"You really deserve to die!!"

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, calmed down, and then said, "I will give you a chance to make up for your past mistakes."

"But according to your majesty's orders, I will not hesitate to die even if I am so heartbroken."

On the other side, Mu Xinghe left Dali Temple, first went to get the letter that the third prince's uncle had given to Tang Hongyu, then copied a copy and gave it to Mu Chao, "Send it to the third prince's house."

What she copied was exactly the same as the third prince's uncle's handwriting in terms of handwriting and writing habits. Her own handwriting was not very good, but she was very talented at imitating other people's handwriting.

Coupled with the hard training in her previous life, she never let go of this skill when she returned to the past, so imitating an article now is completely within her grasp.

When the third prince returned to the study at night, he found the letter that Mu Xinghe had handed over. When he saw the content in the letter, he was shocked to the extreme and angry to the extreme.

His hand reached out to the Ministry of Rites imperial examination, but he never thought of pulling Tang Hongyu on board. No wonder, there were no problems in the previous two imperial examinations, but this time it was discovered.

"He, how dare he!!"

The third prince almost rushed to Dali Temple to question his uncle. Fortunately, his staff stopped him. He said, "Your Highness, don't worry. Whether this letter is written by Mr. Wang has not yet been determined."

"How could it not be him? The handwriting can be imitated, but how can others know about his little writing habits?"

"If this is written by Mr. Wang, then His Highness cannot go to him at this time. He has betrayed His Highness, and his words can no longer be believed."

"What do you mean, sir?"

"Why did this letter appear here? Didn't His Highness have any guess at all?"

"This is a letter to Tang Hongyu. Since he betrayed me, this letter must be in Tang Hongyu's hands."

"Master Tang is in prison. It doesn't matter whether he has participated in fraud, but what is important is that he knows that he was used as a gun. Once this letter is exposed, Master Wang is your highness's uncle. Regardless of whether this is for Anyone who has given instructions from His Highness will be implicated. And now, this letter appears in His Highness's study. Isn't this Mr. Tang's surrender to His Highness?"

The third prince thought for a while, "So now, the most important thing is to find out who his real master is. I will go find the mother and concubine right away."

This night, I was destined to have no sleep.

Whether they were candidates who wrote "Yingzheng" or "Guangming", they were all arrested and questioned one by one.

All the guards were dispatched tonight to investigate one by one, and all the places involved were sealed.

The eldest princess's birthday banquet has arrived as scheduled. Although people have been panicking because of the imperial examination fraud in the past few days, the eldest princess's birthday banquet has been prepared for a long time, and it cannot be canceled because of this incident.

Besides, she didn't do anything grand, she just invited some relatives and friends over.

Lin Feishang rested at home for several days. Although the morning sickness still existed, it was much better than before. In addition, the eldest princess invited her, so she got up early to dress up.

The same goes for Mu Xinghe, who got up early and dressed neatly in the county lord's official uniform.
