After being reborn as Wang Baochuan's sister, she decided not to persuade her

Chapter 66 Thorough investigation of the examination room (third update)

"Okay, Zhao Qiankun." The Emperor called out to the outside of the hall, and soon, the leader of the Imperial Guard, who was dressed in armor, majestic and nine feet tall, entered the hall.

"Immediately lead your troops to the Chen Mansion to conduct a thorough investigation. Check all the account books and items in the treasury to see what else he is hiding from me."

"I obey the order!" Zhao Qiankun clasped his fists and went out wearing full armor.

"Ruan Qingzhu, if you have any other evidence, just ask." The emperor's face was gloomy and dark, even more frightening than before. There was a sneer on his lips, "I want to see how many more people there are in this court."

Worms."

Amidst the different expressions of the ministers, Ruan Qingzhu said slowly, "I guessed the candidates on the list and used many methods to communicate with Chen Shangshu. I have a photographic memory, and all the test papers I handled at that time were omitted.

I remember one or two, I didn’t understand it at the time, but now that I’ve looked at the list and thought about it, many things have become much clearer.”

"For example, there must be three sentences starting with 'ugh' in the test papers of that armor and the top candidates behind him. I guess that this is their secret code. Your Majesty will know as long as he finds their test papers and compares them."

.”

After hearing what he said, everyone present was shocked, and no one expected that he could point this out.

"Does Mr. Ruan want to convict someone based on just these few modal words?" Master Sun just now said dissatisfied.

Ruan Qingzhu replied, "It's not groundless. What most people pursue when writing articles is that it is best not to repeat words in an article. There are many modal particles, and this is not the only one. Of course, it is better not to repeat as much as possible, not to mention this

Nervous Qiu Wei pursues perfection and exquisite diction, which is impossible for ordinary candidates to write like this."

Mr. Sun lost his voice.

Everyone present stopped talking.

Some of them broke out in cold sweat. They had been doing this kind of thing secretly for a long time and became more and more rampant. Who would have thought that one day they would suddenly be exposed to the public? They were simply caught off guard!

The most important thing is that Wang Yun has been silent. Even when His Majesty ordered Zhao Qiankun to lead troops to search the Chen Mansion, he has not said a word. This made them even more uneasy. In the past, they had Wang Yun as their backing, so they were naturally confident.

But now, Wang Yun seems to have suddenly changed his temper, as if he is not on their side at all!

Everyone was terrified, but those Qingliu who had been suppressed by them in the past straightened their backs and began to support Ruan Qingzhu.

The emperor looked at the reaction of everyone in the court with a cold face, sneered and said, "This matter is of great importance. Dear friends, please stay in Tai Chi Hall for now."

"Ruan Qingzhu, I order you to lead the troops to thoroughly investigate this matter. Xu Wan, the minister of Dali Temple, will assist you. The Imperial Guards in the capital will be mobilized at your disposal. You will lead your people to interrogate the candidates on this list, and be sure to find out all those involved in this matter.

people."

"Remember, you must not be selfish. If I find something fishy, ​​be careful of your head."

Ruan Qingzhu knelt down respectfully and thanked, "I accept your order!"

"Prime Minister Zuo, come with me." The emperor stood up from the dragon throne, and Wang Yun followed him.

As soon as the two people left, many people in the hall immediately knelt and collapsed on the glass-like ground of the hall.

*

The situation in the court hall was treacherous. When the news came out, the whole of Chang'an exploded. The streets, alleys, and restaurants were full of people discussing the matter.

"Look, let me tell you, there must be something fishy about Qiu Wei's ranking this time. How can someone like Master Zhusong be just in the middle of the pack!"

"The dust has not yet settled, so don't jump to conclusions so quickly, okay? You didn't know what was going on in the hall at that time, how could you know that it was like this? What will you do if the investigation finally turns out to be unjust?"

"Although I don't know why the investigation suddenly started, but with all due respect, didn't this cheating in the exam start long ago? Why is it that a thorough investigation is suddenly started now, and who is the mastermind behind it?"

…

Wei Mansion.

Liu Guanjia said, "Madam, you are really a clairvoyant and can predict events like a god! I just heard about this incident. Fortunately, you gave the order early. At this moment, they have already started running around asking for help."

"Well, earlier when we were not in need, we bullied our young master, now he has come to the Wei Mansion for help. Madam, don't worry, I will ignore them and will never have anything to do with them, so as not to get dirty by the time."

Wang Yinchuan nodded and said, "You did the right thing."

Butler Liu was even happier after receiving the compliment. Now he knew that the lady was really smart. That day, the lady was willing to use the dowry to support the young master's army. He admired her at that time. Now, he is simply in awe.

Wang Yinchuan said, "I'm going to the prime minister's house in a while. Could you please Uncle Liu to prepare a carriage for me?"

"Okay!" Butler Liu was admiring Wang Yinchuan at this moment. He accepted the order and went out immediately.

Wang Yinchuan walked to the desk, wrote a few lines, rolled them together, and blew a whistle. Soon, a white dove flew in from the window with fluttering wings and landed on the desk.

Wang Yinchuan stuffed the paper roll into the barely noticeable bamboo tube on its feet, and at the same time twisted a few grains of rice from the table to feed the fat pigeon.

"Okay, don't eat it. If you eat it again, it won't be able to fly." She patted the pigeon, "Hurry and deliver it to Wei Ting and tell him to be more careful. Do you understand?"

The pigeon called "Cuckoo" twice, as if it really understood the human language. It flapped its wings a few times and flew into the sky. Soon the pigeon disappeared.

Butler Liu quickly prepared the carriage. Wang Yinchuan briefly freshened up and then took the carriage all the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wang Yun has not returned from the court yet.

Wang Baochuan was sobbing. Mrs. Wang was at a loss and didn't know how to persuade her.

As soon as Wang Yinchuan entered the door, he saw Wang Baochuan's crying face, "Why are you crying?"

As soon as she spoke, Wang Baochuan immediately threw herself into her arms.

Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Didn't Qiu Wei release the results today? She started crying before she saw Xue Pinggui's name."

Wang Yinchuan lowered his head and asked, "That's it?"

Wang Baochuan nodded in her arms, like an abandoned puppy. As soon as Mrs. Wang mentioned this matter, tears fell down again, like a broken pearl.

"Okay, don't cry. He didn't make the exam. Why are you crying? It's Xue Pinggui who should feel the pain." Wang Yinchuan took her out of his arms and said, "If he fails to pass the exam and loses his future, what will you do?

If you marry him, shouldn't he be the one who should suffer the most?"

"If you don't marry him, you can still live in the Prime Minister's Mansion, live off your parents' food, and live your wealthy life. How wonderful."

Before she finished speaking, Wang Baochuan frowned, his little face scrunched up, and he stamped his feet angrily, "Second sister, don't make me happy anymore!"
