stunner training system

Wang Ke is the richest man in the capital. Although scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants are the cheapest, the ancestors of this dynasty also made regulations that merchants are not allowed to wear silk, and there are regulations on building construction, etc.But it is undeniable that merchants are the richest.

Even if the imperial court stipulated that merchants could not wear silk, but nowadays, there are countless merchants who wear silk, no matter how cautious they are, they only wear linen clothes on the outside, and silk clothes on the inside.

Compared with the peasants who plan food all day long in the fields and may not be able to get enough food and clothing, compared with the scholars who squeezed through the imperial examinations with thousands of people, the money from merchants came quickly and a lot, and it was very attractive.

Wang Ke, the richest man in Beijing, has a bright light on his head, telling everyone that this is the biggest fat sheep among businessmen, but no one dares to move this fat sheep. "County magistrate who breaks the family" and "Ling Yin who destroys the family". Those who break are merchants, and those who destroy are also merchants. Whoever makes them rich has no one to protect them. The money is touching, and then they will be targeted. What happened later was a familiar routine.

Therefore, the merchants who have achieved Wang Ke's status all have people standing behind them, but unlike others, standing behind Wang Ke is Dong Liang, the eunuch who is in charge of the imperial horse supervisor.

This Dong Liang and Wei Eunuch took care of His Majesty's daily life since childhood, and they had a good friendship. Later, when His Majesty ascended the throne, this Wei Feng served Lin Mo by his side, while Dong Liang was in charge of the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

Lin Mo and Su Changfeng discussed the matter of shipping, but this is a matter for merchants after all, and Su Changfeng and Lin Mo only proposed a solution, and the specific operation still needs to be carried out by shrewd and capable merchants.

Wei Feng knew that Dong Liang had a person like Wang Ke, who was well-known in Beijing for his filial piety every year, so he entrusted Dong Liang with this matter.

In addition, Dong Liang's godson is in charge of the affairs of the canal, so it is convenient to get a boat, and at the same time, he also wants to bring along the old brothers.

Wei Feng is not a person who fights for power, and Dong Liang is always close to him. The two get along very affectionately, and they also greeted Dong Liang in advance for this errand.

Dong Liang's image of Wang Ke is that he has offered a lot of tribute every year, but he is quite polite and has never asked for anything from himself. He is honest and responsible, and probably only asks for Dong Liang's protection. of leisure.

It’s just that Wei Feng suddenly asked him to ask for someone, which surprised Dong Liang. Later, Wei Feng kept secretive. Dong Liang thought about the recent fight between Su Shangshu and Cui Shangshu, but nothing else happened, and he didn’t know Wei Feng’s To make a plan, I just heard Wei Feng say that it was the intention of His Majesty and Su Shoufu, so I stopped thinking about inquiring.Anyway, Zuo Zuo is just a merchant, and Zuo Zuo can't get in the way of anything.

Wei Feng got Wang Ke over from Dong Liang, just to see Wang Ke.

===========================

Although Wang Ke has the name of the richest man, he is kind and charitable, and he can be regarded as a good family.It's just that a few days ago, his unfilial son injured someone in Prince Ning's mansion, and Wang Ke was worrying about it.

Although King Ning is now just an unemployed prince and has no real power in his hands, Wang Ke himself is not a powerful man, but a merchant who entrusted himself to the eunuch party. Let's talk about it.

Now his son was fighting with people from Prince Ning's Mansion, and he heard that another person was injured, so Wang Ke was anxious to get well somehow.

Although Dong Liang is the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor, he is a high-ranking eunuch, but he will not fight against Prince Ning's mansion just because he is a businessman... The people of Prince Ning's mansion who only hoped for his own son to be injured are not important people, right? .

Wang Ke thought, Prince Ning's Mansion usually sent stewards to manage the property in the mansion, and after so many days, there was no one from Prince Ning's Mansion to send them over, so he finally let go of his tight heart.It's just that seeing his own son Wang Shun is still a little unhappy.

Seeing Wang Shun coming in, looking like a libertine, with a smell of alcohol on his body, Wang Ke couldn't help feeling angry, "Walking around the streets all day, eating flower wine with a group of cronies, where did you come from today? Come on!!! You say you don’t take the imperial examination and concentrate on doing business. Originally, you were allowed to take part in the imperial examination when you became a member of the clan, but you didn’t know anything about it, and you said you wanted to be a merchant. The merchant and others got into a fight. What does it look like!!!"

Speaking of which, Wang Ke casually threw the snuff bottle in his hand. Anyway, this thing is not worth a lot of money, it just looks fresh in color, and Wang Ke doesn't feel bad about these.

Seeing that Wang Ke was in a panic, Wang Shun didn't say anything, turned his body sideways, and directly avoided the snuff bottle that was thrown, which almost fell on another person.

This person is indeed Eunuch Sun, one of Eunuch Dong's subordinates. He originally came to see Wang Ke according to Eunuch Dong's wishes, but Wang Ke threw a snuff bottle over as soon as he entered the door.

Eunuch Sun looked at the snuff bottle that fell to pieces on the ground, and said with a smile: "Old Wang, you have really strong hands! You really don't accept old age!"

Seeing Eunuch Sun come in, Wang Ke got up quickly and cast a blank stare at his son, thinking that his son didn't tell him about it.Then he went directly to Eunuch Sun, led him to the upper seat, and said, "Eunuch, why do you have the time to come to the door today? My little bastard didn't tell me that Eunuch is coming. You really neglected Eunuch."

Eunuch Sun smiled but said nothing else, he just said that he came here at the order of Eunuch Dong, looking for Wang Ke to go to Biefu.

Wang Ke was at a loss. Although he was entrusted by Eunuch Dong, Eunuch Dong never summoned him. Even if he gave a gift, he personally sent it to the housekeeper of Eunuch Dong's mansion. People like Eunuch Dong saw him Faceless.

Eunuch Sun meant that Eunuch Dong was going to see him. Hearing this, Wang Ke felt a little worried. Maybe someone from Prince Ning’s mansion found Eunuch Dong. Thinking of this, Wang Ke gave his son a hard time. He rolled his eyes, and then cautiously asked Eunuch Sun, "Eunuch Dong is a very busy person, why do you think of Xiaomin? Could it be that something went wrong at home?"

Hearing this, Eunuch Sun laughed and said, "How do the people below know what Eunuch Dong thinks? But it should be a good thing, Eunuch Dong seems to be in a good mood."

Wang Ke often sent money to Eunuch Sun, so Eunuch Sun had a good impression of Wang Ke. Anyway, it was not a big deal, and Eunuch Dong seemed to be in a good mood, so Eunuch Sun was happy to be human.

Hearing this, Wang Ke settled down a little, thinking that if Eunuch Dong held him accountable, Eunuch Sun would naturally not be so amiable.Then he followed Eunuch Sun and planned to see Eunuch Dong.

Before leaving, he gave his son a supercilious look, telling him to keep the house safe and not cause trouble. Seeing Wang Shun's weak response, he followed Eunuch Sun out.

It's just that no matter how prepared Wang Shun was, he was still taken aback when he heard that.

"Eunuch means that His Majesty wants to ship by sea, so he plans to send the ship quietly first???"

Even knowing that Wang Keding would be surprised, Eunuch Wei was so frightened by his voice that he almost knocked over the teacup.

Eunuch Wei put the teacup away, and said to Wang Ke, "It is indeed what you think."

Wang Ke was ecstatic in his heart, no matter how calm he was now, his face was filled with joy because of this news.

"This is a great thing!" Wang Ke murmured to himself, feeling a little crazy.

Shipping has been the most profitable business since ancient times. Foreigners highly admire the porcelain and tea from the Great Xia Dynasty, and even the cotton cloth here can get a good price there.

Seeing Wang Ke's heartbeat, Wei Feng and Dong Ming looked at each other and smiled.

Eunuch Wei is dealing with shipping matters, but Su Changfeng is much busier.

It was almost mid-February, and the examination held by the Ministry of Rites was about to kick off. Although this was a matter of the Ministry of Rites, as the chief assistant, Su Changfeng also handled some things.

The chief examiner for this exam is Cheng Min Zhenzhen, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites.Although he felt that he would not go far in the officialdom, Su Changfeng still admired Cheng Min Zhenzhen. After all, there were fewer and fewer officials who did not form a party and did not seek personal gain.

The Imperial Examination in the Great Xia Dynasty was divided into three sessions, the first was the provincial examination, then the general examination, and then the palace examination. The provincial examination was to determine the eligibility of candidates, the general examination was to determine the qualifications of Jinshi, and when the palace examination was held, the ranking could be determined, which is us The familiar No. [-] pick came second.

The examinations of the Great Xia Dynasty are generally held on the ninth, [-]th, and [-]th day of February, because it is spring, and it is also called Chunwei.

It's just that something big happened in Chunwei this year.

"Wei Banban, come here and read this note." Snap, this note fell in front of Wei Banban, Wei Feng accepted it although he was a little puzzled, Wei Banban calmed down, and said loudly: "The country is open!" The imperial examinations are used to seek talents, but today there are unprovoked villains who sell them in the market, and the Jinke will take the examination, and the scholars will answer the questions before they enter the venue."

Hearing this, Su Changfeng already understood that there was probably a problem with Chun Wei this time, and this book was played by a household department to the chief of the matter.

Su Changfeng sighed, although he admired Cheng Min Zhenzhen, but he absolutely had no intention of getting involved.Moreover, this incident does not know who is behind the action.

"Shi Jian and Xu Jiang, Juren of Yuyao County, meditate on Qi, and their souls are overwhelmed by the sky. They may be proud of this topic first, or ask others about it, or use their topic as a policy article to be widely circulated."

Shen Siqi?Lin Mo was taken aback when he heard the name, and opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he remained silent, letting Eunuch Wei continue to read.

Shen Siqi?Shen Siqi from Yuyao County?That must be him!Lin Mo frowned, but didn't know what to do.Damn, he is the counselor the author got for King Ning. King Ning’s golden finger as the hero is him. He is not only loyal but also a civil servant but proficient in military affairs. He is a rare general. Beat back.

"Cheng Minzheng, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, pretends to be a writer, and he is willing to be a marketer. There are rumors about the minister's speech. Those who read the scrolls in the court, I hope you will review it again to show justice! Listen to it!"

After reading the memorial, Eunuch Wei stepped aside respectfully.Lin Mo frowned and said: "The imperial examination is the way for the country to select scholars, and we must not let others seek it for personal gain!"

"Let Su Changfeng and the Ministry of Rites investigate this case. If there is something dirty, they will definitely not let it go."

And that Shen Siqi, damn it, the book didn't say that he was involved in the imperial examination fraud case, and he was going to be left to the pig's feet, what if he was convicted now? ?

===================================

Wei Feng looked at Lin Mo in front of him, practicing calligraphy with his wrist hanging.I watched Lin Mo grow from a babbling child to a handsome young man now.

Wei Feng can be sure that he knows Lin Mo very well.

Seeing Lin Mo put the pen on the pen stand, looking at the calligraphy he had practiced, Wei Feng hurried over and said: "His Royal Highness has been diligent in practicing calligraphy recently, and it can be said that he has made great progress. The servant looks at this calligraphy like the last time His Majesty bestowed it on you." What is the preface of the Lanting painting called..."

Lin Mo rolled his eyes at him, "That's Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" copied by my father, my writing can barely be said to be a bit strong, you old slave, to compare it with the writing of a saint, is simply humiliating the saint. "

Wei Feng laughed and said: "Your Highness, you know that I don't know a lot of big characters, I just look at His Highness's handwriting."

Lin Mo didn't make a sound, looked at it for a while and said, "Burn this calligraphy!"

"Burn, what a pity, Your Highness, what a beautiful word..." Seeing Lin Mo staring at him, Wei Feng couldn't say what he said, so he quickly responded.When Lin Mo turned his head and stopped looking at him, Wei Feng muttered to himself, His Highness has been so imposing and majestic recently, is this the appearance of the Son of Heaven?

Lin Mo asked Wei Feng to lay out another sheet of paper, intending to continue practicing calligraphy.

After Wei Feng laid out the paper, he began to grind the ink. Lin Mo thought about it, and made the first stroke, asking, "How about the recent fraud case?"

Wei Feng was still in the future and thought about why Lin Mo asked this matter, so he told what he knew. After all, it was an imperial examination fraud case, and it was spread all over the capital. Naturally, Wei Feng knew a little bit about it. What I love most is the bustle of civil servants, especially this kind of dog-eat-dog bustle. Even if Lin Mo doesn't give orders, Wei Feng will listen carefully. There is something wrong with hearing about it, and there may be some inaccuracies. Besides, the list has not yet been released. It is not clear whether the selected candidates will be selected. The Zhu Juan has been retrieved and I plan to read it again. The date of release of the list has also been postponed to On the second day of March, Your Majesty is so wise, I am afraid that the case will be cleared up in these two days."

In addition to the matter of offering sacrifices to the Ministry of Rites, the imperial examination is also within the scope of their powers. It's just that Guo Youzhi, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, is a student of Cui Wanzhi, the second assistant of the cabinet, so this matter is worth considering.

Fearing that it would not subside so quickly, Lin Mo thought to himself that the people behind the scenes would not give up unless they dragged Cheng Minzhen into the water.

"How is Master Cheng?"

Wei Feng responded, "Master Cheng went to the Taoist Memorial, saying that he has a clear conscience, and hopes to find out as soon as possible and return his innocence."

Lin Mo smiled, "Master Cheng still has that temperament."

Wei Feng murmured to himself, naturally he still has the temperament of being soft and hard. If you say that Mr. Cheng even read his own book, although it didn't affect him in the end, Wei Feng didn't like him very much, and he was investigated. , for Wei Feng, that is a great thing.

But in front of Lin Mo, Wei Feng wouldn't say that kind of thing, touched Lin Mo's bad head, saw that the meaning in Lin Mo's words seemed to protect Mr. Cheng, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Cheng is a lucky man, and he will definitely clear up his grievances. "

To clear up the grievances?Lin Mo secretly sighed, this is not necessarily the case, what he is afraid of is that he will get a bad name and end up losing his official position.You must know that Cheng Minzhen was killed by this fraud case in the original book, and this matter is nothing more than a soft and subtle mention in the background of the heroine.If you are not careful, I am afraid you will not find this matter.

Lin Mo put down his pen and told Wei Feng to put away what he had written. Lin Mo was wearing a sky-blue brocade robe, and he brought Wei Feng dressed as a servant with him, and there were a few warriors by his side. Wei Feng was worried. He was specially transferred here, and leisurely left the palace gate.

Then ran directly to Zhang Hanlin's house.

Zhang Hanlin's family has a son. Although he is only fifteen now, he has a promising future.

Lin Mo knew clearly that this guy was not as kind and deceitful as he appeared on the surface. In the future, he would pass the second-class exam, [-]th, and be awarded the imperial scholar. The Lord's Household Minister successfully controlled the money bags of the world.

After seeing Zhang Zong, Lin Mo only said one sentence, "Do you want to save Shen Siqi?"

Zhang Zong, who saw Lin Mo coming in to salute, was shocked when he heard this, "Your Majesty's words are serious, is there really a way to save Senior Brother Shen?"

Lin Mo approached Zhang Zong because Lin Mo knew that Zhang Zong was Shen Siqi's fellow student. Zhang Zong once went to Kuaiji to study and worshiped Wen Ziya, a great scholar of mind learning, as his teacher, and Shen Siqi was also under his school. It's just this relationship. , Lin Mo only found out after reading the original work.

After all, one is from the Duke's family, and one is from a poor family. Now, no one will link these two people together.

Lin Mo looked at the excited flush on Zhang Zong's face and said, "It's only natural."

The blush on Zhang Zong's face receded slightly, and he said with some doubts, "How does Your Majesty know the name of Senior Brother Shen, and why is he planning to save Senior Brother Shen?"

"There is a reason why I saved you, Senior Brother Shen, but you don't need to know the reason." Lin Mo walked up to Zhang Zong and said, "It's just that if I don't care about you, Senior Brother Shen, I'm afraid you will be doomed."

Nonsense, Shen Siqi didn't have this experience, I'm afraid he was falsely accused, in this case, he must be saved, otherwise, what if the plot is twisted? ?

One must know that Shen Siqi and Zhang Zong still have roles in the future, although one is in prison now, and the other has not yet taken the imperial examination.

Zhang Zong's face turned bitter, and he knew what Lin Mo said. Although the government was clear, Zhang Zong also knew that this fraud case was clearly aimed at Pei Gong by Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, and the actions involved this time were not important. The most important thing is that Cheng Minzhen, who is behind Juzi, and the big bosses of the imperial court, naturally cannot win a small shrimp like Zhang Zong.

Thinking of Shen Siqi, who is still detained in Shuntian Mansion, Zhang Zong thought to himself that the current situation could not be worse than this. Thinking of this, Zhang Zong said in a deep voice: "I would like to listen to your majesty's orders, and I hope your majesty will help you as I said before." My brother."

Lin Mo looked at the nervous young man with a smile and said, "It's natural, come here with your ears!"

================================================== ===========================

Some people went too far this time.

The capital city in February is naturally cold, but for the candidates who have passed the examination and are waiting for the results to be released, the chill in the capital is nothing to fear. They are anxiously waiting for the results to be released.

The winner straddles the horse to parade through the streets, sees the beautiful scenery of the capital, enjoys the envy of his fellow villagers, and even builds a Jinshi memorial archway for him in his hometown, and will remember this glory forever.

The loser is naturally frustrated. Some people plan to fight again while they are young, and some leave frustrated and become a small official in a remote village.

It's just that this year's Spring Festival is extremely unpredictable. First, the Shuntian Mansion took away the three candidates from the General Audit Hall, and then the Ministry of Rites issued a notice saying that the list will be released on the second day of March.

This posture is clearly due to a change in the imperial examinations. Among the exams, some elders of the family who are officials in the court said, "It is said that Cheng Minzhen, the chief examiner, leaked the exam questions. Those who were arrested This son is Cheng Minzhen's private vent."

As soon as this remark came out, it was really like a pot exploded between the two.

Cheng Minzhen is a well-known Confucian in the south, and he is highly respected among the scholars in the south. Even Shen Siqi, who was arrested in the Shuntian Mansion, is also a well-known talent in Kuaiji. Not so and so.

Regarding this fraudulent case in the imperial examination, many candidates were arguing about it. Some people believed that they really did it, while others believed that Cheng Gong had always been upright.

Many opinions were discussed, especially those who thought they had failed the rankings were even more active. Although there were rumors of not talking about state affairs in the Great Zhou Dynasty.But for these unofficial candidates, this state affairs is what they like to talk about most.

In the midst of all this attention,

The investigation of this fraud by the Ministry of Rites soon piled up on Lin Mo's desk.

"A few days ago, I impeached Cheng Minzhen, a scholar of the Zhonghua University. I leaked the title privately. The Ministry of Rites moved the text, and the officials read it again. The number of the Zhongzheng list can be verified by the comments of the same examiner. And Shen Siqi is the point of the minister."

Lin Mo handed the copy of the Minister of Rites to Su Changfeng who was standing beside him, and said, "Su Qing, what do you think?"

Su Changfeng looked carefully at what was said in the memorial, and said, "If Cheng Minzhen intentionally leaked the test questions, why didn't one of the three be chosen? If he said it was unintentional, who was the one who leaked the test questions this time? I also don't know very clearly. "

Lin Mo said: "Then what does Su Changfeng think next?"

"Nowadays there is a lot of discussion in the court, and even the officials in the workshop are equally noisy. I thought that I could ask Jin Yiwei to investigate secretly, clear up this matter, and restore the integrity of the entire court and the public."

Seeing that Lin Mo was still in deep thought, Su Changfeng quickly said, "Although Cheng Minzhen is guilty of negligence in this matter, there should be nothing to discuss about it. Naturally, the Ministry of Household Affairs has given the matter no problem, but this matter is already in the hands of the government and the opposition. There is a lot of discussion in the middle, if not, please ask Cheng Minzhen to defend himself outside the Meridian Gate, discuss Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Rites for interrogation, and privately use Jinyiwei to investigate. Since this matter has already caused chaos in the government and the public, it is better to make it big. To set the record straight, and to prevent unprovoked villains from taking advantage of this to cause trouble."

Lin Mo looked at Su Changfeng carefully and said: "According to what Su Changfeng said, this matter cannot be suppressed. Since this is the case, it is better to divert it. It's just that the Minister of Rites was also implicated, and it was still Dali Temple and The Ministry of Criminal Justice will interrogate, and as for Cheng Minzhen, let him defend himself at the Meridian Gate." Speaking of this, Lin Mo sighed, "It's a pity Cheng Minzhen..."

The capital is huge, but the news spread quickly, and soon Lin Mo's will was known to everyone.

"Joint trial?" Guo Youzhi said, "How could Your Majesty let the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple have a joint trial, and allow Cheng Minzhen to defend himself? Did he clear his name?"

"What are you panicking about? He got out of this fraudulent case. He is also a grasshopper after autumn. He is not far away. As for your job as Shangshu, you are naturally sure."

Guo Youzhi is the left servant of the Ministry of Industry. Apart from the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, this is Guo Shilang. It just so happens that the Minister of the Ministry of Industry resigned because of his old age, so the position of Minister of Industry was vacated.

Guo Youzhi went through countless avenues before he got a word in the cabinet. The reason is that the cabinet belongs to him, but before he can dream of being promoted, what Lin Mo said, inside and outside the meaning, turned out to belong to Cheng Minzhen, the Ministry of Rites the servant.

Guo Youzhi was full of reluctance, but Cheng Minzhen had no leisure other than being a bit noble.Even if Guo Youzhi wanted to attack him, he could find no fault.

When Guo Youzhi was in distress, he listened to humanity. Cheng Minzhen admired the candidates very much, and even called out the names of the candidates during the examination papers.Fu Si knew that his opportunity had come, so he quietly informed the Ministry of Household Affairs of the incident, and abruptly set off the biggest scandal during Lin Mo's reign.

It's just that the instigator of this fraudulent case flatteringly said to the person sitting on the chair: "What you said is true, of course, Cheng Minzhen will not end well."

I saw a handsome and handsome figure sitting on the chair, obviously wearing a suit of commoner clothes, but it did not conceal his demeanor at all, he was truly unparalleled.But at this time, he said lazily, "Lin Mo's intention is naturally to put this matter in full view, to seek justice, so as to stop Youyou's mouth, but those who fail the ranking in Beijing are like crucian carp crossing the river. If they start making a fuss..."

Guo Youzhi chuckled and said, "Sir, what you said is natural. If you think about it, Cheng Minzhen will definitely not escape."

Secretly spit, really is a worldly fool.

The man smiled, but didn't answer. He just looked at Guo Youzhi's overjoyed face with a hint of disgust in his eyes.Guo Youzhi was originally a disciple of Cui Shangshu, but the person sitting in front of Guo Youzhi was not a disciple of Cui Shangshu.

Dressed as a Confucian scholar, he seems to be a commoner with no official position.Just a scholar, how could he run to the servant's mansion, and even the servant still respects him so much? ?

====================================================================== =================

In the [-]th year of the Jianyuan period of the former dynasty, the Imperial Academy of Kyoto was first established. It was initially called Beiping Junxue, and was later renamed Guozijian by Taizu.After more than [-] years, it is still unfailing. Although there are no students who entered the prison in the previous dynasty, they can go to work in other places without taking the imperial examination, but Guozijian is still a holy place in the minds of scholars.

When the Guozijian was in its heyday, it was huge in scale, stretching for ten miles, brightly lit, and the grand occasion was unprecedented. Envoys from home and abroad rushed to invite him into the prison, and they were all proud of being in the prison. Today, although it is a little weak, no one will Those who are in prison are underestimated.

Family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs are naturally the objects of concern of these Guozijian students, let alone the imperial examinations that involve the advancement of scholars from all over the world.

"I heard that the Minister of Rites published a Dao zhezi, saying that none of the three people mentioned by the Ministry of Household Affairs were included in Cheng Gong's collection, and one of them was selected by the Minister of Rites."

"If Cheng Gong sells the test questions for personal gain, how come none of the three are selected by him?"

"Could it be a blindfold? Cheng Gong leaked the test questions privately, but those three people are so talented? So they are not used?"

"One of them was taken by the Minister of Rites, and his literary talent, not to mention the others, should not be so unbearable."

"Since Cheng Gong didn't show favoritism, why do people who are running around like dogs say that Cheng Gong leaked the test questions privately!" "I'm afraid someone in the court is secretly plotting..."

……

Although it was only a few days, this remark was widely spread in Guozijian, Gongyuan and other places.Everyone talks about Cheng Gong, and there is a lot of regret, lamenting that the traitors in the government are in power, making the upright people bow down, the world is like this, what can we do?

Even teahouses and painting houses also have gossip, but they are not as confident as those scholars discussing. Occasionally discussing this matter, they will understand with their eyes, and then talk about the relegation of celebrities in the past. Layman Dongpo, Yu Qianyu made an analogy with the public.

"Absurd! It's absurd!" Zhang Cai, the left servant of the Ministry of Officials, said in a big voice, "not to mention that Cheng Minzhen was wronged this time, and he was also guilty of negligence, but people today compare him to Yu Gong. Could it be that the court is fatuous and used Loyal ministers suffer!"

Yuan Wai Lang Zeng Ming said: "Your Excellency knows about this, but do you know the attitude of the elders?"

As soon as Zhang Cai heard this, she put away the angry expression on her face and said: "Zeng Ming, you and I have the friendship of fellow countrymen and the friendship of friends. Even in this official department, you and I get along well. Here, I would like to advise you not to get involved in this fraudulent case. If you speak for Cheng Minzhen, you will be a thorn in the side of some people. If you belittle Cheng Minzhen, you will be entangled by a group of people. If you want to live a clean life, don’t worry about these things something happened..."

Seeing Zeng Ming nodding his head in agreement, Zhang Cai thought to herself: Who told Cheng Minzhen to support the ban on opening the sea, and finally got into trouble. Is this sea so easy to open?

This is killing chickens and monkeys...

Zhang Cai was admonishing his subordinates, and Lin Mo was also talking to Su Changfeng, but the person being reprimanded was indeed Lin Mo who was superior.

Su Changfeng looked at Lin Mo who was standing in front of him pretty and alive, with a guilty conscience, he couldn't help laughing, but he didn't show it on his face, it was exactly the same as when he skipped his homework when he was a child.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Zong went to the Imperial College to spread rumors? Should he be punished for slandering the court?" Su Changfeng looked at Lin Mo, who had a serious expression, at a loss, his eyes flickered, and he looked guilty. .

Guozijian has always been a place for the imperial court to cultivate talents. Although it is now in decline, the imperial court still attaches great importance to Guozijian.At the foot of the Son of Heaven, disciples of saints actually spread rumors here, if it wasn't for Su Changfeng seeing something wrong, he hurriedly checked it out, or he didn't know that the person behind the scenes was actually the master of the world.

Hearing this, Lin Mo turned his head and looked at the carpet covering the floor, as if he was being scolded honestly.It's just that Su Changfeng clearly saw his black and white eyeballs turning back and forth, clearly wanting to say something, Su Changfeng looked at Lin Mo in front of him dumbfounded, and thought to himself, such a talented person like His Majesty loves to do something The behavior that makes people laugh and cry really makes people think.

Lin Mo turned his head back, and then asked, "Excuse me, what I asked Zhang Zong to say was verified by the Minister of Rites?"

"This..." Before Su Changfeng could speak, Lin Mo continued.

"None of the three candidates involved were selected by Cheng Minzhen! Is it true? Two of the three did not enter the list, and the one who entered the list was also selected by Cheng Minzhen's subordinate officials, or not?" Lin Mo lengthened the ending, The originally lowered head was also lifted up, looking extremely proud.

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Su Changfeng really wanted to hit Lin Mo's proud little head directly. "Of course, what His Majesty said is true!"

But Su Changfeng still said: "Although what your majesty said is true, but your majesty only spread out all the things that are beneficial to Cheng Minzhen in this fraud case, but did not say that two of them had visited Cheng Minzhen." Zhen, didn't you say that the Juzi Shutong ever went to buy questions? That's biased!"

Lin Mo raised his head and smiled, seeing Su Changfeng looking at him helplessly, he said, "I want to keep Cheng Gong and those three candidates."

Su Changfeng said: "Even if His Majesty wants to help them out of trouble, it is really inappropriate to spread rumors in the Imperial College."

Seeing Lin Mo bowing his head with a humbly repentant look, Su Changfeng continued: "Besides, can you find out the source of Cheng Minzhen's involvement in this case?"

source?Lin Mo raised his head and looked at Su Changfeng. Wasn't it because Cheng Minzhen was noble and offended someone who shouldn't be offended?How is there any other reason?

"Last month, Cheng Minzhen submitted a memorial, talking about opening the sea, in order to fill the national treasury, but the cabinet didn't approve it, so even I put the memorial aside. Maybe your majesty didn't notice that memorial?"

Open the sea?Lin Mo was taken aback. He didn't expect Cheng Minzhen to have such an idea. No wonder there was this fraudulent case. Lin Mo's words, like a meteor passing by, connected everything together. No wonder this storm came like this. It seems that the root cause It's on the sea!

The sea is naturally to be opened. After all, it is Su Changfeng's credit in the original book. If the sea ban still cannot be opened, the plot may change. Thinking of the last time, I read the original book by myself, but found that Su Changfeng didn't meet the heroine at first sight. Sincerely, it has already made the plot a bit messy, and even slightly affected the subsequent plot. Fortunately, Su Changfeng is a supporting role, and the space for temporarily changing the plot is not too large.

"Then why not..." As soon as Lin Mo heard this, he wanted to go forward to persuade Su Changfeng to help Cheng Minzhen.After all, Cheng Minzhen was accompanied by an important supporting actor Su Changfeng interrupted Lin Mo, "Your Majesty knows what your Majesty is going to say. Although Cheng Minzhen's selling the question was wronged, it was because of him that he leaked the question. Don't take it lightly!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo was a little anxious. If Cheng Minzhen was convicted, then Shen Siqi, as one of the three implicated, would definitely be punished too!They are candidates, and they have no official position to take away. The most likely thing is to take away their fame!

"Then what about the three cases involved? Could it be that they will be punished together with Cheng Gong?"

Su Changfeng looked at Lin Mo and said, "Whether Wuwei is involved or not, if they get close to Cheng Minzhen, they will have to bear the price of being close to Cheng Minzhen."

Lin Mo gritted his teeth and said, "Su Changfeng, can I ask for a future for one of the candidates!"

Su Changfeng raised his eyebrows and said, "Shen Siqi?"

Lin Mo said in a deep voice, Su Changfeng said: "I am very curious, why Your Majesty pays so much attention to this person! Not many people know that Zhang Zong is Shen Siqi's junior, but His Majesty knows, Shen Siqi also It's just a gesture, so His Majesty doesn't need to take care of him like this?"

Lin Mo looked at Su Changfeng, although he knew that Su Changfeng was a smart person in the book, "I was delighted when I saw his articles, he is a talent for governing the country."

Su Changfeng did not answer the question. The articles for the examination are usually reviewed by the officials of the Ministry of Rites. Usually, the names are blurred and copied in a uniform style. If it is not someone close to him, he will not be able to tell who these articles are. did.

His Majesty's remarks are obviously refusals.

Su Changfeng frowned: "Your Majesty must protect him?"

Lin Mo responded, "This is nature."

Seeing Lin Mo looking straight at him with a determined look on his face, Su Changfeng knew that Lin Mo had made up his mind. This child has always been stubborn, and if he said he wanted to protect that child, he would definitely protect him. Now Zhang Zong has been allowed to spread rumors in the Guozijian.

If not, I'm afraid there will be more troubles. Thinking of Su Changfeng's headache here, I still spoil him too much.

"I will find a way to keep his fame! Your Majesty must not mess around like this time."

Lin Mo replied happily: "It's natural." As long as the plot is not spoiled, he can't be bothered to take care of so many things.
