The Eldest Daughter is Beautiful and Saucy

Chapter 310

"Wen Zhenkang, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, belongs to Li Mao, Prime Minister of the Left. You should know that! But Chu Zhongxing, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, is also a member of Li Mao... I'm afraid you don't know!" Bai Qingyan signaled Bai Jinxiu to sit on the stone bench , "Since Li Mao's hand reached out to me and kept giving him an arm, how does he know it hurts, how does he know he's afraid?"

She put the wet handkerchief in the black lacquer tray in Chuntao's hand, and continued: "They did it themselves, no matter how capable others are, they are just pushing the boat along with the current and adding fuel to the flames."

"Chu Zhongxing, Minister of the Household Department, is also Li Mao's person?!" Bai Jinxiu was greatly surprised.

"Back then, the second prince conspired against him, and after his death, all his contacts belonged to King Liang, so Jinxiu...don't be fooled by King Liang's cowardly appearance." Bai Qingyan poured a cup of tea for Bai Jinxiu, and pushed her to Bai Jinxiu. In front of him, "I've already thought about it, if I'm afraid that whack-a-mouse will hurt the jade vase, I can't break Li Mao's arm! Even if it makes a big fuss, the grades will be voided... But there are benefits to making a big fuss, Qin Lang and Chang Yuan Cousin is a real talent, and he is not afraid of retaking the exam!"

Bai Jinxiu lowered her eyes and nodded after thinking about it: "Elder Sister is right!"

"Where's Qin Lang?" Bai Qingyan asked.

"I heard that Wudemen failed in the rankings and made troubles, so I was called to Wudemen by my friends." After Bai Jinxiu finished speaking, she stood up and saluted Bai Qing, "I'll send someone to call Qin Lang back. He should work hard at home and work hard when he retakes the exam!"

She nodded to Bai Jinxiu.

As soon as Bai Jinxiu left, Lu Ping came.

Some of Lupin's servants sent out to scout for news came back with new news.

It is said that Lu Xiang came out again after entering the palace, not in such a hurry as when he went there. Lu Xiang's two sons also came out of Dali Temple and went back to the mansion.

As expected, Lu Xiang is the most wise and protective person in the imperial court, he is as slick as a loach, just after hearing the news...he went to the palace to plead guilty, Chen Taifu was afraid that he had seen Lu Xiang's actions and guessed why Lu Xiang entered the palace, so he also hurried there The emperor apologized.

Once these two plead guilty in front of the emperor, the emperor will know how serious the trend of bribery is now. The more angry the emperor is... the more dangerous Wen Zhenkang is.

Prime Minister Zuo is probably fidgeting right now!

She squinted her eyes and clasped the stone table with her fingers. Now that the news of the imperial examination fraud is spreading like a raging fire outside, Wen Zhenkang's family members don't know how to worry.

It was Wen Zhenkang's first time to be the chief examiner, so he dared to accept the gift in such a blatant and blatant manner. I wonder if it was also because of the left prime minister Li Mao?

If Prime Minister Li Mao was really involved, and someone instructed Wen Zhenkang's family members to intercede with Prime Minister Zuo, Prime Minister Zuo might be restless and even panicked. Even if Li Mao wasn't involved, it would still be a headache. !

Thinking of this, Bai Qingyan asked Chuntao to call Tong Nanny over.

What Bai Qingyan meant was to start from the inner courtyard, now that Wen Zhenkang's wife must be concerned about it, it would cause chaos, so it is the most appropriate place to start.

Nanny Tong understood as soon as she heard it: "Young lady, don't worry about this matter, this old slave will definitely handle it well."

After this palace examination, the gold list was originally posted on the third day of April, but because nearly a hundred students knelt outside the Wude Gate, knocking on the drum and begging the emperor for justice, there was no gold list on the third day of April, and some of them were fraud cases in the imperial examinations. The imperial decree to try together and solve the case within three days.

The prince has a headache, this is an errand that offends others, this time there are noble officials who participated in the spring, which family did not give gifts?

However, the emperor's father meant that he would be severely punished. Except for the two grandsons of Lu Xiang's mansion and the grandson of Chen Taifu, whose policy and theory were indeed of a high standard, all others who offered bribes would be severely punished and would not be hired for life.

Someone came to Dali Temple minister Lu Jin's sect, but Lu Jin closed the door to thank the guests and refused to accept any gifts. Lu Jin, who was in the limelight, could only ignore it unless he didn't want the black hat.

The crown prince is not as tough as Lu Jin. He had dealt with several honorable families before, but he couldn't bear it later. He called his staff to discuss, and wanted to discuss a way that would not offend others.

What Qin Shangzhi meant was that the state-owned state law family has family rules, and the prince is the heir apparent, so he should stand upright, and private affairs should not be tolerated in front of the state law, so that the emperor can see the prince's useful side.

But Mr. Fang said, let the prince reprimand them one by one after seeing them, and those who cry beg will be answered first. When the sentence is turned back, they can be sentenced with Lu Jin and then go to the emperor to intercede. Then...these nobles The eunuch family is the heart of the prince.

But Qin Shangzhi is deeply ashamed. After all, the current prince is no longer the original Qi Wang. He is now the crown prince and the foundation of the country.

But after thinking about it, the prince felt that Mr. Fang had a good idea, and he didn't make Qin Shangzhi so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

It is true that the prince of the country wants to win the hearts of the people, but the method of winning the hearts of the people is definitely not like this. It is so evil to corrupt the foundation of the country through bribery... How can the crown prince tolerate it? If these rotten ministers stay in the court, what future does Jin have?

The polo match originally held by the Three Princes on the sixth day of April, but also due to the impact of the fraud case in the examination room, the honorable family came less than expected.

People who are involved in bribery are naturally not in the mood. Those who are not involved in bribery are noble officials, and there are candidates in their families. Naturally, they must be detained at home to study hard to prevent the emperor from making them retake the exam.

The third prince held this polo match originally to select noble daughters for his son, to see which noble daughter could catch his son's eyes, so that he could ask the princess to inquire and find a sweetheart for his son, so For the third prince...as long as the noble ladies from each family come.

On the polo field, all three or five gathered together to discuss this case of imperial examination fraud.

Bai Jinxiu sat for a while, and heard someone say that Wen Zhenkang's wife went to Zuo Xiang's mansion in the dark, and she heard that she waited for a long time before she came out, so she excused herself and went back to Bai's house to talk to Bai Qing about it.

"Wen Zhenkang's wife, who was remarried after divorce... The women got together and talked about unrefined romantic affairs, but I think... since Wen Zhenkang's wife Shi stayed in Zuoxiang's mansion for a long time, and he must have bargained with Zuoxiang, and he may have something in his hands that can hold Li Mao."

Bai Jinxiu moved closer to Bai Qing and said in a low voice, "I will try to get something from Wen Zhenkang's wife."

"No matter what kind of handle Wen Zhenkang's wife has in their hands, Wen Zhenkang's life will not be saved." Bai Qingyan pursed her lips and looked at Bai Jinxiu with a smile, "If you can get it, of course it is Best, don’t force yourself if you can’t get it.”

"Don't worry, Eldest Sister!" Bai Jinxiu nodded, and she saw Tong Nanny coming in from the outside with the curtain closed.

On the twenty-seventh, little ancestors! Vote quickly! It will be invalid in three days!
