Shen Wan stayed at Pingyang Hou Mansion for half an hour before leaving.
Shen Wei sent Shen Wan out of the house, and while walking on the road, Shen Wan noticed that Shen Wei was hesitant to speak.
Shen Wan said, "You have something to tell me?"
Shen Wei shook her head, "No, no..."
They were all hesitant and still said no.
Shen Wan said, "Is there anything else you shouldn't say to me?"
Shen Wei twisted her embroidered handkerchief. Seeing her hesitation, Shen Wan found it difficult to speak and guessed, "But it has something to do with the crown prince of Wei Guogong?"
If it was about the fourth room, Shen Wei wouldn't be so coy.
Shen Wei's ears turned red and she didn't know how to tell Shen Wan that the Duke of Wei wanted to marry her as soon as possible. Her parents trusted her eldest sister and believed in her words. No matter how many times Mrs. Duke Wei came, she never dared to let go. If she is allowed to leave the cabinet in the spring of next year, her parents will not be able to move around, and the Crown Prince of Wei will come looking for her, and she really can't resist it.
She is now afraid of meeting the prince of Wei Guogong.
Shen Wei looked at Shen Wan and whispered, "This winter, smallpox is raging in Kyoto. Can I tell the Crown Prince of Wei?"
Shen Wan thought Shen Wei was going to say something to her, but that was it.
Without her consent, none of the four families dared to tell the Duke of Wei about the smallpox outbreak in Kyoto this winter.
Shen Wan said, "It's okay to tell the crown prince of Wei Guogong, just don't let him know that it's related to me."
Shen Wei nodded hurriedly, "I will definitely not cause trouble to eldest sister."
Shen Wei knew a little bit about the affairs in the court. She even heard her father say that King Ling would participate in the fight for the heir sooner or later. He also praised King Ling for his intelligence, saying that King Ling has not been an official in the court and has not received any errands. The eldest prince and Even if King Jin wants to target him, he has no way to target him. The Meizhou earthquake and the Xizhou Dam must have been dreamed by the eldest sister. If the eldest prince and King Jin know that the eldest sister has this ability, they will definitely do something to harm the eldest sister.
Her parents strictly ordered her not to reveal a word, but she really had no choice. Now that her eldest sister had agreed, her parents had nothing to say.
Shen Wei saw Shen Wan to the gate and watched as Shen Wan got into the carriage and the servant drove the carriage away.
In the carriage, Shen Wan was thinking about smallpox. There were already many people sick in winter. Smallpox broke out again in the previous life this winter, and many people died. She could not stop the smallpox outbreak, but she and Xie Jingyan could make preparations in advance. Be prepared. Once someone is infected with smallpox, isolate them in time, and they will not ravage the entire Kyoto like in the previous life. Because there are many people infected with smallpox, and it snows, medicinal materials cannot be transported into Beijing. Not to mention smallpox, many People only suffered from typhoid fever, but they all died in the winter because they could not buy medicinal materials.
I have to find a time to talk to my eldest cousin and transport some medicinal materials to Beijing in advance. I must not repeat the mistake of lack of medicine in my previous life.
In addition to medicinal materials, there is also charcoal fire...
Shen Wan was thinking about this. Yin Shuang saw that she was thinking about something and didn't dare to disturb her. He opened the curtain and looked outside. There were many stalls selling lanterns and many students on the street.
Yin Shuang was not surprised that there were many more lantern sellers. The Emperor's birthday was coming soon, and on the Longevity Festival, a lantern party would be held outside the palace, but why were there so many students?
Yinshuang couldn't hold back and asked Shen Wan. Shen Wan looked outside the carriage and saw several people dressed as students.
Shen Wan thought about the Chunwei fraud case. The emperor asked the eighth prince to write an account of the aftermath, but the eighth prince didn't know how to do it and came to Xie Jingyan for help. The sudden increase in so many students in Kyoto must be related to this matter.
Returning to Mo Yuxuan, Shen Wan asked Xie Jingyan. Sure enough, it was because of the Chunwei fraud that the emperor wanted to reopen Enke to select talents for the court. However, most of the students had already left Beijing at that time, and may have even returned home. It was not easy for them to rush to Beijing again just after returning home, so they simply changed the spring palace to autumn palace.
When students go to Beijing to take the exam, they usually arrive a month or even earlier in consideration of the acclimatization situation. In addition, the Longevity Festival is approaching, and the emperor will find out the fraud in the imperial examination and give the students a chance to take the exam again. The emperor's grace is great. , the students are grateful, otherwise they will have to wait another three years. There are not many three years in life that can be wasted. If you can go to Beijing a few days in advance to participate in the Longevity Festival, you must come in advance.
Xie Jingyan pulled Shen Wan into his arms and said, "Why do you ask this?"
Shen Wan said, "Even if I see a lot of students on the street, I ask you, I don't know who will be the examiner for this year's imperial examination. I guess there won't be any more fraud, right?"
As soon as Shen Wan asked, there was a knock on the door, and Shen Wan quickly got up from Xie Jingyan's arms.
Chen Feng walked in and said, "Your Majesty, the eldest prince and the King of Jin are vying to be the examiners of the imperial examination."
Shen Wan was so worried, and then the matter began to turn into fraud again.
Fraud in imperial examinations was repeatedly banned.
As long as there is benefit, some people will dare to take risks.
Mrs. Chen, the chief examiner in Chunwei, was a member of the Jin Dynasty. That's why the imperial examination fraud occurred. The emperor should not leave it to someone from the Jin Dynasty's party to take responsibility.
Thinking like this, the maid Chun'er came in and said, "Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince is here."
Well, the Eighth Prince is right outside the study.
He was used to going directly to the study to find Xie Jingyan, but thinking of the embarrassment before, he didn't dare to go in casually, especially when Liu Huang's sister-in-law was also in the study. He was ordered not to come to Prince Ling's Mansion to look for him, so he could only wait patiently outside the study.
"Let him in."
After receiving permission, the Eighth Prince entered.
As soon as he entered, he probably didn't see anyone yet, so he shouted, "Brother Six, help!"
Xie Jingyan glanced at him and said, "You are the prince, who dares to take your life?"
"Father," the eighth prince said with a bitter look on his face.
Xie Jingyan looked at him and frowned, "What's going on?"
The Eighth Prince felt bitter in his heart, "A few months ago, my father asked me to write a pamphlet about imperial examination fraud. Today, my father called me and asked me questions. I don't even remember what I wrote in the pamphlet. I I couldn't answer it clearly. I was hesitant and annoyed my father. I couldn't hold it back and said that I didn't write it. Then my father said who wrote it to me and asked someone to come into the palace to answer it for me. I couldn't answer it. Come up, I still have to get slapped..."
I have never seen my father being so deceitful. He clearly knew that he didn't have the ability, but still handed this problem to him, clearly asking him to find Sixth Brother.
He knew that Sixth Brother had written the book for him, but he still pretended not to know and asked him to come and ask Sixth Brother to enter the palace. How could his father bully him like this? !
However, the Eighth Prince's biggest complaint is his mother and concubine, who always brings food to his father. She rarely shows up in front of his father, and his father has not been able to put his ideas on his head. It has been several months. It's not over yet.
The Eighth Prince looked at Xie Jingyan with a pleading look on his face, "Sixth Brother, please do a good job and help me this time."
Xie Jingyan said nothing, and the Eighth Prince asked Shen Wan again, "Sixth Emperor's sister-in-law..."
