lustful

Several people watched it for several days in a row, and Huo Aoye developed panda eyes, and his whole body was haggard a lot. There was also a touch of melancholy in the eyes that were originally lively, and it seemed that he had less of a dandy temperament and more A little moving calm and gentle.

After reading everything, he finally remembered the congratulatory poem he wrote to the prince a few days ago.

In fact, he knew in his heart that the prince was terminally ill, no amount of gorgeous congratulatory poems could save the prince's life, and in this world, the thing that would make the prince happy the most was probably to reverse the case for Qin Luan and Xiao Feng.

If, before March [-]rd of this year, the truth can be sent to the prince, and Qin Luan and Xiao Feng's case can be overturned, then it will be better.

Huo Yunshan stared at the desk for a long time, Xiaobai patted him from behind: "What are you thinking?"

Huo Yunshan came back to his senses and looked at Xiaobai: "I'm in a bad mood."

Xiaobai glanced at Huo Yunshan knowingly, and he, who was originally cheerful, also fell silent.

They have been looking at the files these days. The adults who presided over the trial were not actually investigating Kangping's case at the beginning, and Kangping's case was actually not serious.

Because of the cheating in the imperial examination that year, the capital almost turned upside down.

That year, the prime minister presided over the imperial examination, but half a month before the exam, the whole capital was selling exam questions!

Of course, this is not a big deal, because every year in Chunwei, someone sells exam questions, and they are basically fake.

But this year is quite special, as if someone intentionally scattered the questions all over the sky, there are test questions sold at low prices everywhere, and even the turnip buyers in the street hold a test question in their hands.

The most frightening thing is that this question is true.

His Majesty the old and sickly emperor was furious, and the prime minister was publicly reprimanded in the court, and ordered to choose someone to preside over the imperial examination.

"The person who presided over the imperial examination was the crown prince." Huo Yunshan smiled wryly.

"Isn't the prince sick?" Xiaobai said, the prince of the East Palace has been sick for as long as he can remember, and then he seemed to be getting sicker and sicker, his body couldn't stand the cold in the capital, and he was sent to the south to recuperate.

Huo Yunshan nodded the same: "The prince is indeed sick. I just turned 16 that year, and my cousin took me to the border customs to see him, but he was not in the capital. I heard that the prince came back to the capital to preside over the scientific examination. Those who were going to clean up the imperial court ended up..."

Xiaobai sighed: "In the end, there were still people who cheated. Several people were caught in the examination room, and many others were found out later."

Huo Yunshan pointed to the pile of files in front of him: "You are a member of the royal family, so maybe you don't know that some of us rich and powerful children also need to go for the imperial examination."

The titles of the imperial court are not without reduction. Except for the hereditary marquises like Yin Zishu's champion and Huo Yunshan's Yunzhonghou, there are many people whose titles are reduced every generation. The things you own can't be kept for many generations.Even if it can be guaranteed, the eldest son has the title, and the other sons can only earn a future by themselves.

Moreover, even for Huo Yunshan, if he continues to be a dude like this, he will only gain a false name, and with the harvest from the fief and the imperial salary, he will gradually leave the center of power.

For example, Huo Yunshan's and Yin Zishu's mothers are both princesses, and their fathers have the same title, but their status is simply worlds apart.

"A lot of dignitaries in the capital who are about to decline also need to pursue official careers, and many people also rely on the imperial examinations to get their fame and careers." Huo Yunshan said, "The status of the people in that pile of files is not low. They bought them when the prime minister presided over the imperial examinations. Question, the crown prince took the exam, and they thought of other ways, none of them are easy to mess with, and there is no one in the entire capital who is not related to relatives."

The fraud case happened, and there were too many entanglements. The students in the capital were in a turmoil, and the presiding officials threw Kang Ping out to fight the wind.

Huo Yunshan overturned the case suddenly and violently: "I don't believe I can't find evidence!"

Eleven pushed Zhan Fei in and looked at Huo Yunshan in astonishment.

Xiaobai leaned over shyly and tidied up the book case: "Wait, don't worry."

Huo Yunshan suddenly gritted his teeth: "How can I not be in a hurry, the prince is already terminally ill, if Qin Luan and Xiao Feng cannot be rehabilitated before his birthday, then I don't know if he can wait until the next birthday."

Zhan Fei said seriously: "Back then, Kang Ping was pushed out, so there are so many people in the world, what is the purpose of pushing him out?"

Huo Yunshan and Xiaobai's faces turned pale.

What is the purpose?

First of all, Kang Ping’s plagiarism is too obvious, topical, written like a dog, and the title of the article is the same. Once he is thrown out, people will think of him first when they think of technological fraud that year, and others will be dismissed. Forget it, it just gives the common people something to talk about, and at the same time, it also allows those relatives and nepotism to get away with a light sentence as soon as possible.

Secondly, because of Qin Luan and Xiao Feng, they belong to the prince!

Zhanfei didn't know this.

Even if Huo Yunshan didn't pay attention, he wouldn't understand, but Xiaobai was a little clearer.

After the death of his father, he succeeded to the throne and became the king of Shu. His mother refused to let him read, and refused to find a master for him. If it wasn't for the Xiangguo of Shu who secretly taught him, later his mother became a monk and didn't care about world affairs. Then he would be a real fool.

One of the reasons why Queen Shu did this was because he was too smart, afraid that he would follow in the footsteps of his father and become obsessed with calligraphy and go crazy.

On the other hand, it was to save his life.

Apart from the crown prince, the emperor's closest relative is Xiaobai. Although Xiaobai is sealed in the remote and remote Shu, surrounded by mountains, it is not a special place, and the child lost his father when he was young, so he is fine in the court. Status and fame, but they can't hold back his blood relatives.

The emperor is old and sick, and the prince is in such a body, it is inevitable that Xiaobai will not be targeted.

Apart from the crown prince, King Ling is the one with the highest voice in the court.

King Ling is a distant relative, but he has controlled the government for many years and almost dominated the court with one hand.

Back then, Prime Minister Xie belonged to King Ling!

The prince took over the position of Prime Minister Xie and became the chief examiner of the imperial examination. At this time, he dug out the fraudsters who were trying to insert into the imperial court.

"So they caught Kang Ping backhanded! Actually, they wanted to get rid of Qin Luan and Xiao Feng!" Huo Yunshan clenched his fists tightly, he didn't even know anything!

The prince, Xue Tingjia, has never had much influence. Both Qin Luan and Xiao Feng are talents who passed the imperial examination. Because they were at odds with King Ling's henchmen, they had never had a bright future, so they were assigned by His Majesty to Wangyun Mountain to follow the prince and become a guest of the prince. .

Stayed for two years before coming back.

"No wonder General Yin told me not to investigate before he left. He was afraid that I would be silenced after he left!" Xiaobai muttered.

Huo Yunshan clenched his fists: "No, I must investigate. Since Qin Luan believes in Kang Ping and Xiao Feng believes in Kang Ping, why should I not trust Qin Luan!"

Xiaobai nodded: "I'm going to the presiding judge's house now!"
