Looking at the backs of the uncle and nephew, Sun Shangshu said indifferently: "There are a few thorns in the yard. I heard that Mr. Xu has cultivated into a golden body of Buddhism. Are you interested in trying it?"

Xu Qi'an left without looking back.

As Xu Pingzhi walked out of the office of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he scolded: "Shangshu, son of a bitch, wants you to carry the thorns to plead guilty, even if I draw a knife and cut him, I won't agree."

"How did Second Uncle come so quickly?" Xu Qi'an asked.

"You came too late. After I received the news, I immediately went home to appease your aunt and Lingyue, but it was completely useless." Second Uncle Xu said with a headache:

"I just know how to cry and cry, oh, Ning Yan, what should I do about this?"

Although Xu Pingzhi is a vulgar martial artist, he is aware of the "festivals" between the Imperial College and Yunlu Academy.On the way here, I tried my best to analyze a wave, and felt that Erlang's imprisonment was most likely related to this matter.

"This matter is very complicated, second uncle, you go back first, I still have things to do."

Xu Qi'an didn't want to waste time, so he got on the filly and ran away along the street.

Wei Yuan's words emerged in his mind:

The first step is to prevent the Ministry of Criminal Justice from being tortured into a trick. Chen Fuyin of the government government is a slippery official, and he has both sides. Once this matter is confirmed, he probably doesn't want to offend Sun Shangshu.

"Sun Shangshu hated me deeply. The imperial examination fraud case just gave him a chance to take revenge. Even, this is what he promoted. No matter how bad it is, he is also one of the participants. It is almost impossible for him to treat Erlang kindly. "

The filly was sweating and panting, and finally stopped in a yard in the outer city.

"Taoist, Taoist, Jianghu emergency"

Xu Qi'an pushed open the courtyard door, went straight to the inner room, and saw Priest Jin Lian lying peacefully on the bed, as if asleep.

Again, he went to the cat again and was in a hurry. Seeing this scene, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

Having had the back kick of the little mare's love and the purpose of asking for others, Xu Qi'an did not use physical means to wake up Daoist Jinlian, and sat at the table and waited silently. Within 3 minutes, a slender shadow appeared at the door.

"what's up."

Daoist Jin Lian squatted on the threshold, with a gentle and calm voice, as if he was used to talking like this.

"My cousin Xu New Year was involved in the imperial examination fraud case"

Xu Qi'an briefly described the ins and outs of the matter, and then said: "Master Daoist, I need your help."

The amber pupils of the orange cat stared faintly, shaking the air, and said:

"I don't know enough about Dafeng's officialdom to give you effective advice. You shouldn't be looking for me on this matter. Wei Yuan is a master of political fighting. If political fighting is divided into grades, Wei Yuan is the second rank."

Xu Qi'an, who was originally very anxious, couldn't help but continue when he heard this topic: "It's only a second grade? Then who is a first grade?"

The orange cat laughed and said: "Naturally, it is Emperor Yuan Jing. In terms of the emperor's mind, Yuan Jing has already reached the pinnacle. Both Wei Yuan and Wang Zhenwen are expected to be a leader in political struggle, but they have different ideas and different political views.

"Emperor Yuan Jing deliberately placed two fierce tigers on the court hall, and he really sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight."

Makes sense, wait a minute, didn't you say that you don't know much about the court situation?Xu Qi'an cursed in his heart, but asked:

"Does the Taoist think that there is something beyond rank in political struggle?"

"Of course there is," Daoist Jin Lian raised his paw, licked it, and said, "The highest state of political struggle is to subdue everything by force, and no one dares to disobey every word. Every founding emperor is like this."

Daoist seems to be gradually affected by the habits of cats. Sure enough, in any living thing, the body controls the brain. The hormones secreted by the body determine what you do. If it is full, it will be donated to female pilgrims, so the question is, does Taoist priest Jin Lian like female cats or female cats?

At this time, the orange cat sighed, lowered its paws, and said quietly:

"You seem to enjoy hovering on the edge of life and death."

And repeated horizontal jumps?This sentence flashed through Xu Qi'an's mind subconsciously, and then quickly changed the topic back, saying, "Master Daoist, I want to ask you for a favor."

Along the canal outside the capital, to the south, ten miles from the outskirts of the city, there is a lake with vast mist, surrounded by green hills on both sides, and lotus flowers in the lake, the scenery is extremely beautiful.

There are also farmhouses, teahouses and restaurants by the lake.

Because this place is in the outskirts of Beijing, it can be reached by boat, which is fast and convenient, so every spring, there are countless young princes and rich families who take a boat trip to the lake, which is very lively.

An exquisite embroidered boat is moored on the shore. Wang Simu is dressed up today. She is wearing a popular wide-sleeved light gauze skirt. The color of the pattern is the same as the background color.

The makeup is exquisite, the hair is combed in a beautiful bun, and the black hair is dotted with gold hairpins and jade hairpins, which is completely in accordance with the standards of dating.

But an hour passed, and the family swam back and forth on the lake, and Ms. Wang's boat was still parked where she was, and she was in a very unhappy mood.

"Miss, forget it, let's go back." The servant girl persuaded in a low voice: "Xu Huiyuan won't come."

"Is it because your news hasn't been delivered?" Wang Simu refused to accept this reality, and gave the maid a light look, trying to blame Xu New Year.

"How dare you, it must have been delivered." The servant girl said aggrievedly.

Wang Simu sat blankly for a long time, unable to hide his disappointment in his bright eyes, and said softly: "Forget it, let's go back."

"Hey." The servant girl responded briskly, left the cabin with small steps, and went to the stern to inform the boatman to return.

The boatmen pulled the anchor up from the water, rowed the oars together, and the boat moved slowly along the canal back to the capital.

After returning to the capital pier, Wang Simu got into the carriage waiting on the side of the road, and ordered: "Lan'er, you go to Xu's mansion right now, just say I'm going to play with Miss Lingyue.

"I'll wait here for half an hour before leaving."

"Miss, why is that?" The servant girl frowned.

"Even if he doesn't mean anything to me, I have to know it clearly." Ms. Wang was very aggressive.

Chunwei Huiyuan Xu New Year, was arrested by the Ministry of Criminal Justice for suspected fraud and put in prison.

This major case, which was destined to shake the entire capital, spread from the government office and the Ministry of Punishment, and then passed through the six departments, quietly spreading to the entire officialdom in the capital.

After a few more days of fermentation and dissemination, the whole people will know it.

During the lunch break, acquainted officials and officials gathered in restaurants, teahouses and other places to discuss the imperial examination fraud case.

"I knew that if the students of Yunlu Academy won the Hui Yuan, the princes of the court would agree? Isn't it here?"

"You only know one thing and don't know the other. This matter is definitely not that simple. Then Xu Qi'an is Xu Qi'an's cousin, and Xu Qi'an is the top poet of the Great Feng Dynasty. I don't believe that such masterpieces as "The Road is Difficult" are not tricky. of."

"Bullshit, is there only one Xu Qi'an who can write poetry in this world? We scholars can't have a flash of inspiration and a clever hand?"

"Okay, there's no point in arguing about this. Xu Huiyuan is set this time, no matter whether he cheated or not, his future will be ruined. I remember that in the 12th year of Yuanjing, there was a fraud case involving three students. The case was investigated for two years. In the end, he was released, but his reputation was ruined and his studies were ruined."

"A similar case happened in Yuanjing in 20 years, but that time the evidence was solid, and the students and examiners involved in the case were beheaded by His Majesty."

"If this case is confirmed, as a student of Xu Xinian's Yunlu Academy, if you think about it, there is no possibility of a turnaround. Do you think Wei Gong will take action?"

"It's very possible that Xu Qi'an is Wei Gong's confidant, and he will definitely ask Wei Gong to take action."
