Cannon Fodder is King [Quick Transmigration]

Xie Jianze was right.

In mid-October, the Xuchang Paddock assassination case came to an end. Although the assassinated men in black were wiped out and no one was left alive, the Sanfa Division found the waist of the dead Zhao Song imperial army on the body of the man in black. card, so the assassination case was closed on the grounds that the remnants of the previous dynasty made trouble.

The officials in charge of guarding the paddock, such as the head of the palace, the commander of the capital, the commander of the deputy capital, and the marquis of Duyu, had more than [-] officials, large or small, because of dereliction of duty or dismissal, or ransacking their homes, or exiled.

Most of these officials are of noble origin, and even if they are not, they are inextricably related to him. Among them, Yu Qian, the commander, is the son of Duke Shen, who is also one of the six founders of the country. His title was cut.

For this reason, the eldest prince's party has been in a hurry these days.

This is probably the only thing that can comfort Emperor Tianming and the third prince Qin Shi.

The next day, Li Zhe, the imperial censor of Zuoqian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, stated: "The foundation of the prince's country is also, I wish to think deeply and foresight, so as to secure the feelings of the world."

Li Zhe is a member of the eldest prince Qin Yu, how could Qin Yu not think of what Xie Jianze could think of, it seems that he is determined to deal with Meng Zezhi well.

To this, Emperor Tianming only replied: "I understand what Aiqing means, but the crown prince's feet are lame to save me, and the day will show his heart. What's more, although the crown prince is lame, he is still a legitimate son. There is no reason for Wan not to abandon the legitimate son and replace the concubine son."

For this reason, that afternoon, the great eunuch He Mu arrived with the imperial decree of Emperor Tianming.

One hundred taels of gold, ten thousand taels of silver, one hot spring village, hundreds of brocades of various colors, and some miscellaneous things, which are even more valuable.

Emperor Tianming has always been generous in acting.

After announcing the decree, the eunuch He Mu helped Meng Zezhi up with his own hands: "No one in the court knows that His Majesty loves you the most, so His Highness doesn't need to take those rumors outside his heart."

Meng Zezhi's face was moved: "If you are lonely, why should you be with me if you have trouble?"

As he said that, he took a purse from the grand lady Huihui and stuffed it into He Mu's hand: "This is just a small thought, please have tea with me."

He Mu didn't evade: "Then thank you, His Royal Highness. Now that the decree has been announced, our family wants to go back."

"Okay." Meng Zezhi tilted his head: "Huihui, send He Banban for Gu."

"Yes."

As soon as He Mu left, Meng Zezhi changed his face on the spot. He casually grabbed a jade ruyi and sneered: "King Yan (Elder Prince Qin Yu), heh."

Then he seemed to have thought of something, with a gloomy face, he gritted his teeth: "Also, Prince Rui (Third Prince Qin Shi)."

After finishing speaking, with a bang, he casually threw Yu Ruyi back into the tray, and said in a cold voice: "Mangui, go and ask the official department to bring Mr. Xu Minglang over, and say that I have something important to discuss with him. "

"Yes."

The court ladies and eunuchs on the side watched their hearts, kept silent, pretending that they hadn't heard anything, but they didn't know what they were thinking.

Two days later, the Ministry of Officials told Xu Minglang that he had participated in the Destiny for 20 years in the dynasty, and Mou Ping, a newly promoted provincial examination candidate in Zhili (all the prefectures around the capital), took part in the scientific examination under the guise of his identity, and he was actually the son of a prostitute.

He also brought out Mouping's fellow villager, Zong Youde, to testify.

According to the Daqian law, the four categories of people who advocate (prostitutes), you (players), scribes (executioners), and Zao (military servants) and their descendants are not allowed to take part in the imperial examination.

As for fake nationality, it refers to fake native place.In the dry system, there are restrictions on the number of students (scholars) who take the exam and the number of admissions for the imperial examinations, and the admissions are lenient and strict.Therefore, to take the exam, scholars must return to their place of origin to take the exam, and they are not allowed to go to the exam with Vietnamese nationality.However, in order to take advantage of speculation, some scholars went to areas with less competitive pressure to apply for the exam, which is called counterfeiting.

Mou Ping's ancestral home was from the Chief Minister of Henan Province, and his biological mother was a prostitute from a local Jiaofangsi (official brothel). Originally, he was not eligible to take part in the provincial examination.

You must know that in the Qian Dynasty, Juren already had the qualifications to be an official.

Emperor Tianming was furious, and immediately issued an order to arrest Mou Ping and bring him to justice, deprive him of his meritorious service, and order the three courts to interrogate him.

According to the law, scholars with merits enjoy privileges such as exempting from canes.

Mou Ping, who could not bear the torture, confessed quickly, but it turned out that his biological mother had a romantic relationship with Xie Qingyun, the left servant of the Ministry of War, and Mouping was also Xie Qingyun's son.The father and son met each other three years ago, but because Xie Qingyun's wife was a tigress, Xie Qingyun didn't dare to bring Mouping home, but kept him outside.

It was Xie Qingyun who helped change his household registration.

The case should be cleared up to this point, but Wen Sijing, the Minister of Dali Temple, discovered a strange thing.

Before Mu Ping got to know Xie Qingyun, he was just a gangster on the street. He didn't know a single word, and he did a lot of sneaky things on weekdays. Examinations, government examinations, hospital examinations, and township examinations, you can win the exam.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing for those scholars who have studied hard for more than [-] years and failed to pass the exam.

Under his investigation, it was found that Mu Ping's Zhu Mojuan had too many typos in the rural examination, and the sentences in the articles were not fluent at all.

The so-called Zhu Mojuan, because each person's handwriting has obvious differences, in order to prevent the same examiners involved in marking the examination papers from identifying the examinee's handwriting through handwriting and give special care, the imperial court specially formulated the Zhujuan Mojuan system.

This system stipulates that candidates enter the venue to answer the papers with ink pens. After the exam is over, they hand it over to a special examiner who checks the test papers including the draft paper one by one, and then transfers all the test papers to the transcript officer. The transcript officer will re-copy all the test papers with a cinnabar pen, and all the officials who mark the papers can see are the candidates' vermilion papers.

Moreover, according to the regulations of the examination room, the examination papers of candidates must be neat and clean, and there must be no typos or alterations. Once found, the admission qualification will be lost directly.If there are too many typos, at least they will not be allowed to take the imperial examination within ten years, and at worst they will be directly dismissed.

Just ask, how could such a test paper be selected.

In the 20th year of Destiny's destiny, a total of [-] students from the Zhili Township Examination were selected for high school, and Wen Sijing, the Minister of Dali Temple, immediately organized staff to review all the test papers of these people.After investigation, a total of nine test papers had the same problems as Mouping.

A fraudulent imperial examination case turned into an imperial examination fraud case in an instant.

All of a sudden, the chief examiner who presided over the Zhili rural examination, two deputy chief examiners, and seventeen fellow examiners were all sent to prison.

Half a month later, the case came to light.

Another way of cheating in the imperial examination is involved here, that is, scholars who take the exam can write some words that can be used as marks in the exam room in advance on a slip of paper, and hand it to the same examiner who participated in the marking.

Because the style of the Qian Dynasty imperial examination is eight-legged essays, and each paragraph of the eight-legged essays will use some function words at the beginning and end of each paragraph, such as 'Qifu', 'Just', 'Yi', etc. What is written on the note is Such meaningless but essential words.In this way, the same examiner can take this note, find this test paper, and secretly manipulate it, which can be said to be absolutely safe.

And the identities of the nine cheating candidates are also unusual, most of them are from noble backgrounds or official children.

To this end, each of them bribed the examiner at least 5000 taels of silver.

Emperor Tianming was furious.

The chief examiner was executed immediately, and his wife's family property was confiscated; two deputy examiners were hanged immediately, and his wife's family property was confiscated;

Wen Sijing, Minister of Dali Temple, was a member of Meng Zezhi.

Xie Qingyun, the left servant of the Ministry of War, was born in the mansion of Lord Xinguo, one of the six founders of the country, and a staunch supporter of the eldest prince Qin Yu.

One of the deputy examiners, Ji Shandao, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, is the father-in-law of the third prince Qin Shi.

The sixth prince of the founding of the country folded in two at once, and that night, all the porcelain in the residence of the eldest prince Qin Yu was changed.

Ji Shandao was born in a poor family, and had worked as a priest of the Imperial Academy for several years. Although his official position was not high, he was superior in being noble.

Emperor Tianming has always protected the third prince, Qin Shi, very well. In order not to attract attention, he even pointed out that the family background of the prince and concubine he gave him was much lower than that of other princes.

The predecessor originally did not want to disclose this case, not only because of the same examiners and the parents and brothers of the fraudulent examinees, there were people who supported him or supported him, the most important thing was that the chief examiner and the household secretary Gao Dengbing's wife and brother were Qiu Mingyuan, the current commander of the guard Ma Junsi.

The Dianqian Division, the Guards Horse Army Division, and the Guards Infantry Division are collectively known as the Sanya, which governs the squadrons in front of the Dian, directly and the Imperial Guards throughout the country.

The predecessor didn't want to offend Qiu Mingyuan because of this, and even used it as a bargaining chip to attract Gao Dengbing and Qiu Mingyuan's dream.

Meng Zezhi didn't have so many worries.

He is not afraid that Emperor Tianming won't be fooled. After all, an insignificant Zuo Shilang from the Ministry of Rites (the father-in-law of the third prince Qin Shi) is exchanged for a chance to attack Xungui (the sixth prince of the founding of the country, the eldest prince's party), so why not do it? .

It's just that in the eyes of outsiders, killing one thousand enemies will hurt eight hundred. Meng Ze knew that this move was really a little emotional.

They all thought that Meng Zezhi did this in order to get revenge on the third prince Qin Shi who hurt him and the eldest prince Qin Yu who made a big fuss about his lameness.

"Qin Hao." Qin Shi punched the bed with a fist, and said in a hateful voice, "You and I are at odds."

Because of this incident, the good reputation he had accumulated with great difficulty was completely ruined. Who made Ji Shandao his father-in-law?

At this moment, Emperor Tianming didn't care about comforting Qin Shi, he frowned: "The prince seems to be a little reckless and irritable recently."

Just because he limped a leg and was stimulated by Qin Yu, his heart changed drastically?

It's unlikely, the prince is not so fragile.

Just as he was thinking, the eunuch He Mu hurried in and whispered something in his ear.

Emperor Tianming immediately frowned: "What?"

Qin Shi came to his senses: "Father, what's wrong?"

Emperor Tianming sighed: "There is news from Longwei that the Xie family is secretly investigating your affairs."

This is probably the prince's handwriting.

That's right, when he was assassinated that day, he was in a hurry and helped Qin Shi up first.The prince has always been thoughtful, so he must have seen something.

This can also explain why the prince has been emotionally disturbed recently.

The Emperor Tianming's finger tapping on the table suddenly stopped, and he calmed down. He thought he knew what to do next.
