"Brother Meng, I just said that you can't be unknown on the list. See, this time someone is really behind the scenes. Fortunately, Huang Mingjian gave us another chance." Ye Yuchen always felt that Meng Even if Tianwen's knowledge is not the number one scholar, it is impossible to lose his reputation.

"Yes, so these days we should study hard and strive for a good result in the only chance to retake the exam this time." Meng Tianwen said happily.He was indeed very excited and very happy. He originally thought that he had lost his name this time, and that he would be able to go to Beijing for the exam again after three years. He did not expect that the second exam would come early, and he had to go all out.

Not everyone was very happy about the good news.A small number of candidates frowned. Although their test papers were not swapped, their rankings were indeed obtained through bribery. They were lucky not to be exposed and had the opportunity to take the re-examination. However, they knew that they lacked self-awareness. Under fair circumstances, they are very likely to lose their names.

Like them, there was Mrs. Ye who was unhappy about the news. She felt that Ye Yuchen was able to be on the list, even though it was the last one, because so many capable people were transferred to the test papers.But if the exam is retaken, maybe her grandson will never have the chance to be a Jinshi.Thinking about it this way, the old lady really hated that candidate named Zhou Bowen. If he hadn't done such a thing, her grandson's appointment as an official would be a certainty.

On this night, many candidates came out to drink together, because they were so happy to be able to retake the exam.

Ye Yuchen and Meng Tianwen drank a lot of wine, and they were going to take a walk back.

As I was walking, I suddenly heard someone shouting: "Killed, killed, killed..."

As soon as the two heard the sound, they immediately ran over to the source of the sound.

They saw a man swinging a dagger at Zhou Bowen, and Zhou Bowen was covering his chest. It was obvious that he had been stabbed just now and his chest was bleeding.

The two leaped lightly and immediately subdued the assassin.

The knife in the assassin's hand fell to the ground, and he burst into tears suddenly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was controlled by a ghost." This person is Bai Lian, who is also a candidate for this exam. Examiner, so I got a ranking.His bribery was found out, and he was ordered not to take the scientific examination in this life, and even his three generations in the future could not take the examination.And all this is the result of Zhou Bowen's insistence on drumming.So he lost his mind for a while, and took a dagger to assassinate Zhou Bowen.

There was an uproar in the street, someone had already gone to the yamen to arrest Bai Lian, and Meng Tianwen and Ye Yuchen immediately sent Zhou Bowen to the nearest clinic.

Bai Lian's knife almost stabbed Zhou Bowen's heart. At this moment, his face was pale and his situation was extremely dangerous.

Ye Yuchen couldn't watch Zhou Bowen die in vain, so he immediately went to Zheng's house to bring Ah Chun, hoping that Ah Chun could help.If a talent like Zhou Bowen died because of this, it would be a loss for Dongyue Kingdom.

After hearing Ye Yuchen's simple description, Ah Chun immediately picked up the medicine box and hurriedly followed Ye Yuchen to the medical center.After Ah Chun checked Zhou Bowen's pulse, he immediately asked him to take the Xuming Pill, and then asked the doctors in the hospital to cooperate with him in treating Zhou Bowen.After a whole night of treatment, Zhou Bowen's little life was finally saved.However, it is not that simple to make him fully recover.

"Thank you." Li Yaohui said, he is Zhou Bowen's fellow villager, and he also has a part to play in uncovering the cheating in the examination room.

"Brother Li is so polite. No matter who has an accident tonight, we will rescue him, not to mention that he is Zhou Bowen. It is because of him that we candidates can retake the exam this time." Ye Yuchen said.

"Yes, he is really upright and brave. If he becomes an official, he must be a good official who pleads for the people." Li Yaohui said.

Meng Tianwen and Ye Yuchen nodded in agreement.

After the emperor and Prince Rui learned of this, they were greatly shocked and angry, and they must severely punish the assassin.Prince Rui was afraid that Zhou Bowen would be thwarted by other people, so he sent someone to protect him secretly, and asked the imperial doctor to see if he needed any medicinal materials, he could directly use the palace medicine to treat him.

"Uncle Nine Emperors, you have mentioned this Ye Yuchen to me more than once, it seems that he is really a hero."

Prince Rui nodded and said: "He is indeed a good seedling. That Meng Tianwen is also very good. Although he is the nephew of Prime Minister Neng Meng, he did not live with the Meng family, and his relationship with their family is not very good. , does the emperor know why?"

"I do have such doubts." The emperor continued, "Both Prime Minister Meng's brothers are officials in the court. However, his younger brother is an official outside, and through his own efforts, he was promoted to the magistrate little by little. Position. According to Prime Minister Meng's mind, it is impossible not to help his younger brother, recruit him to the capital, and consolidate the power of their Meng family. However, the two brothers have had very little contact over the years. The reason for this is still up to the Nine Emperors Uncle told."

Prince Rui smiled slightly and said: "You probably don't know that Meng Tianwen is the son of a favorite."

The emperor was indeed shocked.He said: "But I remember seeing Mrs. Meng Er when I was a child, she was dressed as a woman."

"It's just a lie. Back then, when Meng Shuze fell in love with a favorite, he had to marry him. How could the elders of the Meng family and Meng Shukai agree? But even if Meng Shuze broke off his relationship with the family, he still wanted to marry the favorite, and then he asked himself to be dispatched. When you are an official, you will rarely go back to the capital." Prince Rui said.

"Hehe, it turns out that such an interesting thing happened more than ten years ago. I have seen Meng Shuze's assessment, and he is a usable talent. I originally planned to promote him again and recruit him back to work in the capital." The emperor After a pause, he asked again, "Back then Prime Minister Meng lost such a capable and capable younger brother, shouldn't Grand Master Li be so happy?"

"In the first year, Li Junwei was really happy, but soon he couldn't be happy because the matter of his younger brother Li Junfeng gave him a headache." Prince Rui said.

"Well, I've heard of this. Li Junwei's younger brother went crazy because of a maid." The emperor sighed, and said, "It's really a pity. It should be that lovers end up getting married, but the Li family wanted to expand With my own power, I forced my younger brother to marry a woman he didn't love, which caused this pair of fateful mandarin ducks to be separated from each other, the maid died, and his younger brother also went crazy."

Speaking of Li Junfeng, the emperor suddenly remembered something, and said to Prince Rui: "Uncle Nine Emperors, do I know where the pattern of the plum blossom and jade hairpin you gave me back then is?"

"Where is it?" Prince Rui has not been able to give Yuchai a clear order to implement it, and he is really a bit ashamed to see Taoist Priest Xuanxuzi.

"It's the Li family." The emperor said again, "I have sent people to inquire about the story of Yuchai. Li Junwei and Li Junfeng's mother is a person who loves plum blossoms, so the Li family planted a lot of plum blossoms, and Li Junfeng likes to draw plum blossoms, and the paintings are realistic. His mother took a picture from the plum blossom pattern drawn by her son, made two jade hairpins, and gave them to the two sons respectively, so that they would wear them for their daughter-in-law in the future. Li Junwei's wife went to the palace to visit the Queen Mother and When it was Li Minghui's time, I saw that it was exactly the same plum blossom and jade hairpin."

"Oh, I remembered it when you said that. When I saw this drawing, I felt very familiar. I told Taoist Xuan Xuzi that this jade hairpin should be in the hands of a noble lady in the capital. I didn't expect it to be Mrs. Li. But why did Taoist Xuan Xuzi find the owner of Yuchai?" Prince Rui was puzzled.

"Uncle Nine Emperors, didn't you say that Taoist Master Xuan Xuzi has also arrived in the capital? Don't you know if you go and ask yourself?"

"En." Prince Rui nodded.

In Zheng's house, when Ah Chun saw the two grandfathers, he was really happy.

"Originally, when you arrived in the capital, we also arrived in the capital. It's just that something happened in Qingcheng Mountain on the way, and we had to go back to deal with it, so it was long overdue." Taoist Xuanxuzi said.

"How are you two these days?" Xuanjizi asked.

"My husband and I are fine." Ah Chun said happily, "And my mother-in-law has accepted me."

"That's good." Both grandpas were happy for him.

"Ah Chun, we heard that you met a madman pestering you on the street two days ago, isn't that true?" Xuan Xuzi asked. He had just learned the whereabouts of Plum Blossom Jade Chai from Prince Rui. , It can already be concluded that Li Junfeng is Ah Chun's biological father.

At this moment, Ah Chun's smiling face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a sad one, and then asked: "Grandpa, he is actually my real father, right?"

"You...you know all about it?" Both Xuanxuzi and Xuanjizi were shocked, and they only confirmed this conclusion not long ago.

"Blood dissolves in water, I can feel it." Ah Chun's eyes slowly turned red, "I've heard about him and my mother. He is not a heartless person, and he did not abandon my mother."

"Grandpa knows, he loves your mother." Xuanji said, thinking of his poor daughter again. "Don't cry, your mother knows in heaven, she will die in peace."

Suddenly, Ah Chun jumped from Xuanjizi's arms to the Taoist Priest Xuanxuzi's arms, crying and begging: "Grandpa, please go and beg Prince Rui. Let him release my father. Taishi Li's rebellion has nothing to do with my father."

"Don't worry! I've already told Prince Rui about this matter. It's just that he belongs to the Li family after all, and the Li family is now a street rat. I'll put him in a safe place. If you want to see him, I'll take you to meet him." Him." Taoist Priest Xuan Xuzi said.

"I...I want to see him right now." Ah Chun desperately wanted to see him.

"Okay, let's go now."

So a group of four went to a hut on the outskirts of the capital.

At this moment, Li Junfeng was lying on a bed and fell asleep. Taoist Priest Xuan Xuzi walked over and touched his two acupoints, and he slowly opened his eyes.His eyes were still dull, but when he saw Ah Chun, he immediately got up from the bed and hugged him and shouted: "Miss, don't disappear again."

Ah Chun was deeply moved, tears streaming down her face, she hugged him instead, feeling: "Father, father..."
