After the death of the beautiful and powerful villain, the male and female protagonists become BE

The contents of the memorial were made public by the emperor in the early dynasty. He was also in trouble and wanted to ask the civil and military officials of the dynasty for their opinions.

The civil and military officials who have always been dissatisfied with me and hated you have a rare unity of opinion on this matter. They all said that they would kill the girl named Gao Yun to set the record straight.

The emperor frowned slightly as he listened to the officials' well-founded analysis. It wasn't that he didn't want to kill Gao Yun, but he was curious about how talented Gao Yun was, which made him feel so regretful in Jiangnan.

Li Xiaoji looked at the excitement of the crowd, and then looked at the embarrassment on the emperor's face, and suddenly sneered. The sound was so abrupt that it caused all the civil and military officials to fall silent.

Some people were puzzled and asked why Li Xiaoji was laughing. Could it be that the words of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were funny?

Li Xiaoji nodded and said: "It's really funny. Looking at your ferocious faces, those who don't know would think you are criticizing some heinous sinners!"

Hearing that Li Xiaoji meant to defend Gao Yun, someone jumped out and mocked him for being a person with missing hair and always sympathizing with "his own people".

The connotative words of this man made all the officials couldn't help but laugh. The man who was not afraid of the power of nine thousand years old looked at Li Xiaoji wantonly, and his eyes moved down viciously.

However, Li Xiaoji was not annoyed at all. He stood up and raised his voice: "Master Qi is right, I am just a man without roots. How dare I compare with all of you real men?"

"But whether it's a real man or a fake man, a three-year-old child can still be polite to a woman. How come you adults can't even be as good as a three-year-old child, so you want to kill a little girl?"

"Although I am not a manly man, I also know that the world is difficult and I should not embarrass myself with a little girl. Why does Master Qi insist on having trouble with a little girl despite being upright?"

At this point, Li Xiaoji turned around, looked around, and sneered: "Does the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty think that they are upright and want to make things difficult for a female class?"

"Or are you afraid that this weak woman's intelligence will threaten your status? Are you afraid that this little girl's talent will make your nephews and nephews so incompetent?"

"If that's the case, it's no wonder that you adults are so angry. Red flowers need green leaves to complement them. Who would like their nephew to be reduced to a green leaf? But you must not suppress talented people and make excuses based on their gender."

"Hahahaha, if a man's true self is so jealous of talents, wouldn't I, a man without roots, be a true heroic man?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Gao Yun disguised herself as a man and deceived the emperor. She must be punished for her crime. I can't tolerate your sophistry here!" Mr. Qi turned blue with anger at Li Xiaoji's words and roared.

But Li Xiaoji laughed even more happily and said: "What Master Qi said is strange. Why did Gao Yun deceive the emperor? Does the law ever state that women are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination? Once they participate, they will be punished for their crime?"

"But only men can participate in the imperial examination. She, a little girl, got into it. She was unruly and disrupted the whole order!" Mr. Qi subconsciously retorted.

"That is to say, the law does not state that women are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, so how can Gao Yun's participation in the imperial examination be considered as a crime of deceiving the emperor?" Li Xiaoji said slightly provocatively, as if he had caught something.

Master Qi's chest tightened and he added: "She disguised herself as a man and blended in among men. Her behavior is dirty and her heart is hateful. She is committing a crime!"

Li Xiaoji raised his eyebrows and said with a raised tone, "Oh, what's wrong with the little girl having some other hobbies? Doesn't Mr. Qi's son also like to wear women's clothes?"

"Are you just going to allow your son to wear women's clothes and not allow other girls to wear men's clothes? Tsk, tsk, Lord Qi, that's not how human beings are. We can't have double standards, right?"

"You..." Mr. Qi didn't expect that such secrets would also be known to Li Xiaoji. Looking at the surprised looks of everyone on him, he fainted in anger.

Master Qi was sent to rest outside the palace. The emperor looked at Li Xiaoji helplessly and reminded him: "Li Qing, if you have something to say, don't talk about something that is not there. If you make my ministers angry, who will do it for me?" work?"

Li Xiaoji nodded and said something for Gao Yun, saying frankly that the imperial examination has always been rigorous and all scholars behave like gentlemen. Even if Gao Yun disguised herself as a man and got into it, her reputation would not be compromised.

He dared to guarantee this because he believed that Gao Yun, as a citizen of the Liu Kingdom, would never act dissolutely and harm the national customs of the Liu Kingdom. He also believed that all the students of the Liu Kingdom would have good conduct and would never do anything to be indifferent to others.

Even Gao Yun is now in jail, but Jiangnan's officialdom is clean and upright, and people follow the rules and follow the example, so no one will make things difficult for her. She must be innocent and unquestionable.

As soon as these words came out, everyone twitched their mouths. In the future, if anyone questions Gao Yun's innocence and tries to use this point to attack her, they will be questioning the character of all the students in Liu Kingdom and will definitely arouse public outrage.

After all, if Gao Yun is not innocent, then all the students will have bad conduct and be dissolute, which is an unacceptable humiliation for any scholar.

They can do some things in private, but you just can't make it public or question it publicly, otherwise they will bite you to death.

Scholars are difficult to offend, especially those who are young and energetic. It is better to do less than to do more.

No one dares to use the imperial examination fraud case of the year before last to prove that not every scholar's character is worthy of trust. The Lu Dingyu incident has just been suppressed, and if it comes up again, wouldn't it be openly against His Majesty?

Therefore, Li Xiaoji's fallacy successfully silenced everyone, but his heart shifted from condemning Gao Yun to being angry at the nine-thousand-year-old Wu Huan.

Except for the sixth prince, all other adult princes have the power to discuss affairs in court. The second prince watched the whole process and decided to side with Li Xiaoji and show his goodwill to him.

As soon as the second prince stood up, the other princes also reacted and took sides with Li Xiaoji. They didn't care about Gao Yun's life or death, they only cared about gaining the favor of Nine Thousand Years Old.

As soon as the princes stood in line, the forces behind them had no choice but to express their stance, and the direction of the wind suddenly turned.

In the end, the emperor pardoned Gao Yun's crime. Not only that, he also retained her status as a civil servant and gave her the opportunity to study in Beijing and prove herself to the world.

But this will not happen next time. If another woman imitates Gao Yun's behavior, the whole family will be punished.

When the news reached the Gao family, the orphans and widowers were filled with gratitude. The Gao family breathed a sigh of relief. They were not only grateful for Gao Yun, but for the fact that they were not affected.

As for the person who exposed Gao Yun's identity, he had already been dealt with by the clan rules. Gao Yun acted boldly and kept it secret from the clan for so long, but the whistleblower was even more hateful.

After all, Gao Yun's behavior may affect the whole clan at any time. The whistleblower only needs to report it to the clan elders and deal with Gao Yun privately according to the clan rules, so that everything can be suppressed, the trouble can be solved and the clan can be saved at the same time.

However, even though this person was evil, he was still so stupid that he reported Gao Yun in public, which made the Gao family passive. Fortunately, Gao Yun shouldered the blame, and the prefect and other officials took pity on her talent.

Otherwise, what awaits the Gao family will be the fate of the Manchus being convicted. There will be no eggs left in the nest. The whistleblower brought down Gao Yun, but also cut off his own path.

Therefore, the furious Gao clan elder directly killed the whistleblower, in order to warn the clan members about the meaning of "a family scandal must not be publicized" and the meaning of "both prosperity and loss".

After learning that it was Li Xiaoji who turned the situation around, Gao Yun, who was only fourteen years old, couldn't help but be surprised. Nine thousand years old would actually choose to protect her?

But when I think of some of the things Jiu Qiansui has done in the past, I don't think it's strange anymore. He opposes what the civil and military officials support, and supports what the civil and military officials oppose. In short, he just wants to confront it.

The civil and military officials couldn't tolerate her who was taking the imperial exams disguised as a man. Nine thousand years old forced them to tolerate her. The more aggrieved they were, the happier he was.
