Chapter 78 Opening the Imperial Examination

After the ministers returned home, some of them were so angry that they found assassins to kill Ouyang Rui, or they asked the good-looking men in the family to seduce the eldest princess.

No matter what method they use, they just don't want to make it easy for Ouyang Rui!

Unexpectedly, that insidious and cunning villain Ouyang Rui would capture those assassins who were sent there alive.

Then he took the tokens and confession looted from the assassin, and weeping, he went into the palace to complain to the eldest princess.

He said that he only had the eldest princess in his heart, and he only wanted to help the eldest princess carry out the New Deal.

Unexpectedly, his innocent heart would arouse the jealousy of the despicable villain, who wanted to put him to death and begged the eldest princess to make the decision for him.

Because of the large number of people involved in the case, the ministers of the DPRK and China felt that the law does not blame everyone. No matter how much the eldest princess loved Ouyang Rui, she would not attack half of the officials in the DPRK and China because of a little Ouyang Rui.

Now that the officials of the DPRK and China are not picked up by Huang Qing, if more than half of the officials are really dismissed, many departments will not be able to function normally, so the ministers of the DPRK and China who participated in the assassination are very confident in their hearts.

Even after deciding that the eldest princess would never do anything to them, Ouyang Rui could only endure his uselessness and behave like a man with his tail between his legs.

It's a pity that they really misjudged this time. How could Ming Yuejiao spoil them? No matter how short of people there were in the court, those who broke the law would still be killed.

Seeing the token and confession, Ming Yuejiao acted resolutely, and immediately appointed He Jingzhan as supervisor to handle the matter.

Those officials who appointed the assassins were brought down by He Jingzhan before they came to court.

In an instant, he was like a downcast dog begging for mercy and repenting on his knees crying bitterly.

Ming Yuejiao pretended to be unbearable. Seeing this, the arrested officials immediately expressed their loyalty and begged the eldest princess to give them a chance to make a contribution.

Seeing their sincerity, Ming Yuejiao couldn't bear to blame too much, so she dispatched these officials and all their literate children to various places as teachers.

He also promised that the more talents sent to the imperial court, the more chances they would have to return to Shengjing, and the officials would be reinstated.

It was just a random drawing of a big cake, and the eyes of these officials who were arrested instantly lit up. They expressed their gratitude to Dade and said that they and their clansmen would teach and educate people well, and would never disappoint the eldest princess' expectations.

After the morning court, Ming Yuejiao said happily to Ouyang Rui who was waiting in the Princess Palace early in the morning.

"Your method is really useful. I was worried about where to find my master, but I didn't expect you to send so many at once."

"As long as I can help Jiaojiao, that's fine, but I'm afraid I'll be a thorn in the side of others even more in the future, and Jiaojiao wants to protect me!" Ouyang Rui said half-jokingly.

"Don't worry, I will definitely protect you."

Hearing Ming Yuejiao's assurance, Ouyang Rui couldn't help feeling happy.

Just wanted to take this opportunity to say a few embarrassing words of love to Ming Yuejiao, so as to express my love.

Unexpectedly, He Jingzhan, who is so unpleasant, rushed in and said loudly.

"Princess, I have sent all those officials who committed crimes home, and sent people to supervise their departure from Beijing. I will never let them take any more needles and threads."

After speaking, he gave Ouyang Rui a provocative look.

"You did a good job in this matter, thank you for your hard work!" Ming Yue said with a smile.

"It's not hard, as long as I can do things for the eldest princess, I don't think it's hard." He Jingzhan said with a smirk.

Seeing He Jingzhan's air of wanting to kneel down and help Jiaojiao lick her feet, Ouyang Rui only felt his eyes burn.

Deliberately ignoring He Jingzhan's gentle voice, he asked Mingyuejiao, "Jiaojiao, you are tired early after work! Sit down quickly, I have prepared some food, you just have to try it."

He Jingzhan looked at Ouyang Rui with disdain, and snorted coldly in his heart, "Being a woman really insults a man's status."

Afterwards, he helped Mingyuejiao pour tea and water, and rubbed her shoulders and back.

Ming Yuejiao comfortably enjoyed the service of Ouyang Rui and He Jingzhan.

He closed his eyes and said calmly, "I am going to start the imperial examination to select talents, Ouyang Rui, help me do this."

Ouyang Rui paused while feeding the pastry and said, "Jiaojiao plans to reuse the poor disciples?"

"That's right!" Ming Yuejiao opened her eyes and looked at Ouyang Rui and replied.

"It's just that we haven't experienced the war for a long time. I'm afraid the disciples from the poor family are not as good as the children from the aristocratic family." Ouyang Rui said after some consideration.

"This Gong also understands in his heart, so this year, he will take the test of people's livelihood, current affairs, ideology and morality, and geography. After they pass the test, they will study culture while serving as officials."

"The assessment is set up every year, and those who perform well will have the right to compete for higher official positions. On the contrary, those who perform poorly will have to be demoted!"

"Then this year's family's children may not be able to pass the exam." Ouyang Rui chuckled.

"What does it matter? My Palace has always been fair. If you want to be an official in the imperial family, you don't need to take an exam. You just need to go to the countryside to teach for seven years!"

"This condition is really harsh!" He Jingzhan said as he patted Ming Yuejiao's shoulder lightly.

Hearing this, Ming Yuejiao showed a slight smile on her face, "It's just a matter of willing to fight and suffer!"

After things were arranged properly, Ming Yuejiao remembered the Ming Yunzhou locked in the Dragon Palace.

After all, it is the object of my mission, no matter what, I have to take good care of it.

Arriving at the Sleepy Dragon Hall, Ming Yuejiao pushed open the door, and saw Ming Yunzhou sitting in the hall slumped in a very decadent state, his clothes were also crumpled, and his long hair was casually scattered behind his back.

But I haven't seen him for a month, and my brother has become so downcast.

The whole person seemed to have lost his soul. Mingyuejiao had been standing at the door for a while, but he didn't even look up.

Suddenly, a slightly old voice came from behind, "Your Majesty, the old slave has brought the food."

Ming Yuejiao turned around and saw Eunuch Zhang carrying a food box, inside which was a bowl of squishy cabbage and a bowl of porridge with only a few grains of rice visible.

The living conditions were indeed very difficult.

Eunuch Zhang looked at Ming Yuejiao standing at the door in disbelief, knelt on the ground in fear and kowtowed in salute.

"This old slave pays homage to the Eldest Princess, the Eldest Princess is here to see Your Majesty!"

"Well! Get up! We haven't seen each other for a month, how come Eunuch Zhang is so old?" Ming Yuejiao asked.

"Thank you, Eldest Princess, for your concern. People in the palace always like to praise the high and trample the low. It doesn't matter if the old slave suffers a little bit, but the poor majesty will suffer with the old slave."

"Eunuch Zhang, don't feel guilty, it was His Majesty who got you down."

Ming Yunzhou, who heard Mingyuejiao's voice, finally got a little brighter in his eyes, stood up from the ground with both hands and feet, and ran to Mingyuejiao in a stumbling manner.

Aggrieved Bala said, "Prince sister, you finally know to come to see me."
