Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

Li Tao almost cried out.

Chang Hai quickly gave him a look.

How can such a thing be said?

Or in other words, anyone who dares to speak out must have some support behind him.

Chang Hai told him not to act rashly.

Li Tao spoke only after the group of people next door left.

His heart was still full of youthful vigor and indignation.

"How can it be fair to others if they get the test questions in advance?"

Chang Hai said: "How can you be sure that what these people said is true? Maybe they are just bragging here."

"Then why did you stop me?"

Chang Hai shook his head: "If he is fake, it's useless for us to stop him. If he is real, then it's even more useless for us to stop him."

Li Tao immediately understood what he meant, and he felt a little dejected.

“Am I going to compete with these people in the future?”

Chang Hai pondered for a moment, "We have to find a way to tell Yi Xiu about this."

Wang Jia stopped him, "Why bother telling Yixiu? This is a man's business outside. Yixiu is now the queen, so she must be busy with more things. These court affairs should not be used to bother him."

"That's true, mother. In that case, I won't tell Yixiu."

He said this just to appease Wang Jia. In fact, they didn't know what kind of person Yixiu was. During his contact with Yixiu, Chang Hai knew Yixiu's ambitions, and they were not just in the man's backyard.

Although he may not necessarily care about such things, we still have to find a way to let him know.

Chang Hai originally planned to tell Yi Xiu the next day, but he didn't expect that Li Tao would have a fever that night.

I guess it was because I spent nine days in the examination hall.

The whole family was busy all night, and everything was in chaos.

Since Chang Hai has decided to live a good life with Shen Qinfang, Li Tao will be his child in the future.

After so much running around, it was two days before his high fever subsided.

Chang Hai then hurried to General Fucha's mansion.

After Yixiu entered the palace, it became less easy for them to communicate than before when they were in the palace.

So he could only ask for help from General Fucha.

Li Rongbao smiled bitterly.

"So this is the matter. Someone has already reported it to the emperor. Now the whole court knows about it."

Chang Hai asked: "What is going on?"

"Someone reported the other day that someone had leaked the exam questions in advance."

Li Rongbao sighed slightly and continued, "When this incident came out, there was an uproar in the court. The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. Now the entire capital is paying attention to the progress of this imperial examination fraud case."

"Have you found any clues?"

Li Rongbao shook his head. "There is no conclusion yet, but the court has sent capable officials to investigate. This matter is probably not simple. If someone really dared to cheat in the examination, there must be great interests involved."

Chang Hai said: "This matter concerns the future and fate of many students. If it is not handled properly, it will inevitably cause public outrage."

Li Rongbao: "Yes, the imperial examination is an important way for the country to select talents, and cheating must not be tolerated. However, behind this..."

Li Rongbao's face was filled with worry.

"There are rumors that Prince Xun did it."

Chang Hai immediately thought of Yunli and the man he saw in the teahouse that day.

"Jinghua..."

Chang Hai hesitated.

"Jinghua is fine. This kind of thing won't bother her. Don't worry, father-in-law. I will take good care of her."

After hearing what Li Rongbao said, Chang Hai did not continue speaking.

This matter really shouldn't involve Jinghua.

Chang Hai asked: "Will this matter involve Yixiu?"

Li Rongbao shook his head: "This is the emperor Gan Yifan's business, it has nothing to do with Yixiu."

Chang Hai went back with a lot on his mind.

-----------------

At the same time, this incident also caused a stir in the palace.

When Yixiu heard the news about cheating in the imperial examination, she was filled with worries.

But what she was worried about was not the cheating in the imperial examination itself, but the rumors related to Yunli.

Yixiu said to several palace maids, "Now that the cheating in the imperial examination has caused a lot of controversy, how do you think we should deal with it?"

Huichun said: "Your Majesty, this matter should be left to the Emperor to decide, and we should not interfere too much."

Yixiu sighed softly.

"This is the truth..."

She was halfway through her words when she heard footsteps.

Yixiu continued speaking.

"I don't mean to interfere in state affairs, but this matter is of great importance. I want to share the emperor's worries. I heard that the emperor has not slept well in the past two days."

Yixiu sighed again, "But what can I do to help in the court? Jianqiu, tell the kitchen to prepare some ingredients, and I will make a bowl of soup for the emperor."

"It's good that the Queen has this intention. You really don't need to worry about this matter."

Yinzhen strode in.

Ever since the cheating in the imperial examination was exposed, he had difficulty sleeping. After all, he had just ascended the throne, and this was his first imperial examination after ascending the throne.

Such a thing had never happened during the 50 years that the emperor was on the throne.

If someone were to make a comparison and give some guidance, they might say that he is not suitable to be the emperor.

If he has been in power for a few years now and has all the military power firmly in his hands, then he would not be afraid of anything even if someone says something bad about him. In the current situation, Kangxi may take back his throne at any time.

He doesn't want to make any mistakes.

Yixiu looked at Yinzhen.

Does Yinzhen really not need her care?

If she didn't need to take care of this matter, why would he come to her Jingren Palace when he was so busy?

The reason why he asked me not to intervene was probably because of the several tests he had done on me in the past few days.

He was a little embarrassed at this moment.

He was waiting for him to offer to help.

Yixiu saw through Yinzhen's thoughts, but did not respond.

"Since Your Majesty has said so, I feel more at ease. Your Majesty, please be busy during this period. I will take good care of the harem and not let Your Majesty worry."

Yinzhen didn't expect her to say what he said, but he couldn't change his words.

"With you here, I can be at ease."

-----------------

In every corner of the capital, students were also discussing the matter.

They were filled with anger towards the cheaters, but also hoped that the court would give them an explanation.

Some radicals had heard that this matter was related to Yunli and began to work privately.

They wanted the candidates to sign a petition together to severely punish Yunli.

Some more cautious students are taking a wait-and-see attitude towards this, as they are worried that this move will bring them unnecessary trouble.

In a simple inn, several students sat together, debating whether to join in the joint petition.

"If the cheating in the imperial examination is really related to Prince Xun, then we must seek justice for ourselves."

"But we have no solid evidence. If we submit a petition based on hearsay alone, what if we anger the powerful? Wouldn't we be asking for trouble?"

"What are you afraid of? With so many of us writing to the emperor together, the imperial court cannot ignore our demands."

"Prince Xun is the emperor's brother. Will the emperor really pay attention to us?"
