The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Zhu Houzhao was as surprised as if he had discovered a new world: "So Master Cheng is Taoist Liu Nuan, and Lao Gao has always been in contact with Master Cheng?"

Oh!

The prince is such a bastard!

The whole capital heard it!

Cheng Minzheng jumped and pulled him down, and then covered his mouth.

Zhu Houzhao was delighted: "I am also here to tip off the emperor. When I take the exam, I will be beaten by my father if I can't get the answer. Liu Jin will always find a way to get the answer for me. Lao Gao, I am so close to you, so I will naturally help you. My father just said that the chief examiners of this year's exam are Master Li and Master Cheng. Now that Master Cheng is here, it's even better. You can ask him for the answer directly."

Yan Chengjin and Cheng Minzheng looked very cute.

Cheng Minzheng also knew how serious the situation would be, and hurriedly said: "I didn't hear anything, goodbye!"

Yan Chengjin naturally kept Zhu Houzhao and gave him a good education.

"Your Highness, please swear to the heavens with your reputation that you will not tell anyone about your meeting with Lord Cheng, a hundred times!"

Zhu Houzhao was unhappy: "I will not tell anyone. I remember all the truths of the saints. A man without loyalty cannot stand in the world. I am a reasonable person!"

Yan Chengjin sneered: "When I first came, Your Highness promised me that he would keep my father's identity a secret, but he announced it to the world. How can I trust Your Highness? If Your Highness is unwilling, I will not have any contact with Your Highness in the future."

Zhu Houzhao knew that Yan Chengjin, this bastard, could really do it.

He had been locked up in the East Palace for so long, and Yan Chengjin didn't think of a way to send him a message.

I was immediately embarrassed. Apart from Lao Gao, it was difficult to meet someone with the same IQ in the world.

So, Zhu Houzhao raised his hand and swore to the heavens.

The next day, a piece of news spread in the capital, and no one knew who leaked it. Taoist Liu Nuan was Cheng Minzheng.

The gate of Cheng's house was surrounded by crowds of people.

There is a story in Fox House that a candidate went to Beijing to take the exam, but unfortunately fell into a fox den, which created a rare and wonderful relationship that made the candidates linger and intoxicated.

Cheng Minzheng was not only the Taoist of Liunuan, but also the examiner of the Spring Examination, so more people visited him all of a sudden.

At this time in Cheng's house, Cheng Minzheng cried and said, "My reputation! It has not been fully established yet, but it was ruined by the prince. I have restrained myself for so many days and didn't say anything, but the prince announced it to the world overnight..."

Cheng Minzheng wanted to slap Zhu Houzhao to death.

Now the gate of Cheng's house has been sealed, the dog hole has been blocked, and the servants are always on guard against someone climbing over the wall.

After all, the wall of Cheng's house is too short compared to Yan's house.

When Yan Chengjin heard that Cheng Minzheng's reputation had been exposed, he cried out in his heart that Zhu Houzhao, this dog thing, really can't be trusted.

Fortunately, he was asked to swear a hundred different versions of the poisonous oath.

Otherwise, he would be the one exposed today.

Today, the capital is very lively. The true identity of Taoist Liu Nuan seems to be the news that can make the capital bloom.

The most adorable one is the Poetry and Literature School. They said they would defeat the other two schools, but the founder turned against them?

Wang Yue was also very happy when the news that Cheng Minzheng was Taoist Liu Nuan was exposed.

At this moment, he couldn't wait to come to Yan's house, but he didn't expect Yan Chengjin to know it in advance.

Wang Yue said, "I heard that Cheng Minzheng became the examiner of the Spring Examination. My dear nephew, you should be careful."

Yan Chengjin was cautious: "Why did Lord Wang say that?"

"Cheng Minzheng thinks highly of himself and thinks that no one in the world can match him. When I was an official, he was still playing in the mud! However, I want to remind you that this person likes to ask questions that are very different from others. You must be more careful."

Wang Yue really guessed it right. The first three questions of the policy essay of the imperial examination were asked by Emperor Hongzhi and the chief examiner in order. The third question asked by Cheng Minzheng was very different from others and was very difficult.

Yan Chengjin always felt that Wang Yue and Cheng Minzheng had a grudge. When Cheng Minzheng was mentioned, he was always indignant.

"Do Lord Wang and Lord Cheng have a grudge?"

Wang Yue sighed. When he was in the Chenghua Dynasty, he was on good terms with the eunuchs. Cheng Minzheng was arrogant and looked down on him.

Not greeting him every time you meet him is not giving him face, and it creates a feud.

Wang Yue and Cheng Minzheng are not very popular.

No wonder everyone threw stones at Cheng Minzheng when he was in trouble.

The news that Cheng Minzheng was Taoist Liu Nuan has not subsided yet, and the capital is boiling again. Today is the day of the Spring Examination, and there are many scholars in Confucian robes and silk scarves on the street.

Early in the morning, the sky is clear, and there is not a cloud in a thousand miles.

Yan Chengjin got up early, carefully selected writing tools, and went to Shuntianfu Gongyuan. As the champion of North Zhili, he should have attracted much attention.

The situation of this year's Spring Examination is a little different. Everyone went to Tang Bohu, a great talent from Jiangnan.

Tang Bohu is the champion of South Zhili. Since ancient times, the champions of South Zhili have attracted more attention than those of North Zhili.

After all, the champions of South Zhili are often South Zhili.

In his previous life, Tang Bohu was an internet celebrity with many fans.

Yan Chengjin sincerely thanked Tang Jieyuan, whom he had never met, for silently burning himself and illuminating him. He walked to the Imperial Examination Hall in a low-key manner and lined up for a body search, which was not much different from the provincial examination.

Li Dongyang and Cheng Minzheng stood at the door, and the candidates saluted them.

When it was Yan Chengjin's turn, Li Dongyang and Cheng Minzheng glanced at him at the same time.

Yan Chengjin nodded, gave a look and left.

The dormitory in the Gongyuan was very smelly, not as good as the dormitory in the previous life. The desks, desks and chairs inside had been corroded over the years and were damaged to varying degrees. Good tables and bad tables were assigned based on character.

Yan Chengjin was a good person and was assigned a bookcase with only one leg missing.

"Examiner sir! The junior students are asking for a different desk and chair."

Cheng Minzheng generously gave him his writing desk: "For this candidate, you should use my desk first."

How dare Yan Chengjin want Cheng Minzheng: "The students only want Mr. Li's bookcase. I think it will be better if I use Mr. Li's bookcase."

In the imperial examination fraud case, even the answer sheets that Cheng Minzheng touched were killed. Who dares to take his?

The last time Li Guang was exposed, Yan Chengjin was reluctant in every possible way.

In Li Dongyang's heart, this student's conduct was not upright. At least he was timid and afraid of getting into trouble. He didn't dare to stand up when the road was rough, and he had many troubles.

Let's just say that right now, Brother Cheng has already given you the bookcase, but you insist on wanting it from me.

Isn't this young master's disease?

He has never been pampered by playboys.

Of course Li Dongyang was unwilling: "I don't have any ideas in my mind, and I won't be able to pass the exam no matter who I choose!"

Yan Chengjin feels uncomfortable. I didn't expect you to be like this Li Dongyang. I won't help you sue the eunuch in the future...

Cheng Minzheng thought in his heart that his nephew must not want others to know about their relationship. Calmness was his usual style.

Not only did he not blame him, he actually appreciated it, which was also a good thing for him.

"I think what this candidate said makes sense. Isn't it the duty of our examiners to select the most important talents for the imperial court? How can we avoid it because of such trivial matters? Brother Bin, let's give him another one. "Cheng Minzheng said.

Li Dongyang saw that Cheng Minzheng was trying to persuade him, as if not giving it would make him appear narrow-minded, so he reluctantly gave Yan Chengjin his desk.

The Spring Examination in the twelfth year of Hongzhi's reign has officially begun!

Everything in the Gongyuan was very peaceful, which made Yan Chengjin wonder whether there would be an imperial examination fraud case this time.

There is no difference between the test questions and the questions you have placed in advance.

After finishing the first two questions, Yan Chengjin didn't even look at the questions and skipped the third question, because the third question was asked by Cheng Minzheng.

The pitfalls are extremely strange, and every answer will be answered.

In the previous life, Emperor Hongzhi destroyed all the examination papers that Cheng Minzheng had touched without explanation.

This question is also extremely abnormal.

Just four words, but it stumped all the candidates in Ming Dynasty.

The third question is for the test.

It is the "Four Sons' Accomplishments"!
