Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Because there were too many people gathered outside the Imperial Examination Hall today and some people were causing a commotion, a stampede occurred at the scene and wailing ensued. Jiang Zhiqin and Jiang Can were also in the crowd. Fortunately, they were agile and were not pushed down by the crowd, but others were miserable.

He even saw his mother, second sister, and eldest sister-in-law being instantly dispersed by the crowd.

Jiang Zhiqin knew martial arts, and he said to Jiang Can, "Hurry up and save them." Then he squeezed towards his mother.

Although Jiang Can is young, he is very agile and caught Jiang Rumeng, "Second Miss."

Jiang Rumeng almost fell down. If she was tripped by someone, she would not be able to get up. She asked, "Where's my sister-in-law?"

Zhang Yumo was also separated from them. The maid beside her was no longer with her and was pushed in the opposite direction. She did not dare to stop because if she stopped she might be pushed and trampled. With so many people around her, she was afraid that her stomach would be stepped on and burst.

At this time, there were still people making a fuss, and there were not many officers and soldiers, so they couldn't control it even if they wanted to. They were all pushed into the Imperial Examination Hall, and the people in the Imperial Examination Hall were blocked and dared not come out.

Seeing that Zhang Yumo was about to be drowned by the crowd, she felt someone behind her pushing her hard. If there had not been someone in front of her, she would have given up long ago.

At this time, soldiers also arrived at the scene to maintain order, but it was too chaotic and the soldiers were of no use. They shouted, "Stop pushing and move back."

It would have been fine if he didn't make a sound. As soon as he made a sound, he was pushed to the side and Zhang Yumo was also tripped.

At this time, Jiang Jinyan, Xiao Yu and the Cheng brothers all arrived at the scene. Seeing the chaos at the entrance of the Imperial Examination Hall, they knew that if they continued to squeeze in, someone might die.

Xiao Yu said, "Brother Jiang, this kind of gathering to cause trouble is probably intentional."

Jiang Jinyan also saw it, and he said to the Cheng brothers, "You are people who have been to the battlefield. It is up to you to shock people. Listen to my instructions later."

He quickly found the officers and soldiers who were leading the team to maintain order and said, "Put away your swords. Stop running. Stand still and don't push each other. Anyone who takes the initiative to cause trouble will be arrested."

The officers and soldiers saw that he was dressed like a scholar and asked, "Who are you? Why should we listen to you?"

Jiang Jinyan took out the token that represented his identity, and the officers and soldiers saluted respectfully, "I pay my respects to Marquis Wu'an."

Jiang Jinyan didn't waste time talking to him. "Tell your men to guard several positions and don't let anyone go. Especially keep an eye out for suspicious people... If anyone dares to deliberately cause trouble, arrest them directly."

After giving the instructions, Jiang Jinyan said to the Cheng brothers, "Brother Cheng, let's split our forces into three groups."

Jiang Jinyan used his lightness skills to pass by the crowd and arrived accurately in front of the Dengwen Drum. Then, the drum was struck, one after another, as if shaking the sky.

As the drum was struck, the chaotic scene instantly stopped and no one dared to move. The consequence of beating the drum was to directly alert the emperor, which meant that one would only dare to beat the drum if there was a serious injustice. Beating the drum randomly could result in the death penalty.

Whoever dares to move again will be the instigator of this riot.

The Cheng brothers were sharp-eyed and saw that someone was indeed deliberately making trouble. They also accurately identified the two people. When the people around them saw this, they dared not make any more trouble. Seeing their imposing manner, they thought they were officials.

At this time, officers and soldiers began to slowly evacuate the crowd.

Jiang Jinyan put down his drumstick and saw Zhang Yumo lying on the ground in the crowd. With anxiety in his eyes, he used his Qinggong skills to come to her side, pulled her up and held her in his arms.

Zhang Yumo saw him and said, "Husband."

Jiang Jinyan said, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, I was just stepped on a few times. Luckily, when the drum was struck, no one dared to move, so I wasn't stepped on badly."

Jiang Jinyan looked around and indeed found a few suspicious people. He calmly winked at the Cheng brothers.

At this time, officers and soldiers were evacuating the crowd outside, and the situation inside became much more relaxed.

Many people were trampled in this accident, and some were even seriously injured. There was no life-threatening situation for the time being, but everyone was covered in bruises, especially the women and young ladies, who did not know how to protect themselves and were more seriously injured.

At this time, people from the Wucheng Bingmasi also arrived at the scene.

When Jiang Jinyan asked about the cause of the accident, he found out that someone had been caught cheating. If this was true, it would be a big deal.

Thanks to the protection of Jiang Zhiqin and Jiang Can, Jiang Rumeng and Feng Jingyuan were not injured.

The two saw that Zhang Yumo's fingers were slightly bruised and asked with concern, "Mo'er, is your injury serious? Are you hurt?"

"Mom, I'm fine. Someone just happened to step on my finger. I'll be fine in a few days."

She pulled Jiang Jinyan aside again, "When I was in the crowd just now, I could walk and didn't feel it was so crowded, but the person behind me seemed to be pushing my back desperately, as if he wanted to push me down on purpose. If I hadn't followed the person in front of me closely, I would have been pushed down by that person, and I might have been stepped on by others a long time ago."

Jiang Jinyan took her hand and held it in his palm. "I see. Do you still remember the appearance of the person who deliberately pushed you?"

"I thought it was strange at the time so I paid some attention and turned around to ask everyone to stop pushing and walk slowly. There was a person behind me with a black scar on his neck, like a mole. There were so many people there that I wasn't sure if he was the one who pushed me."

Jiang Jinyan asked Zhang Yumo to follow them and went to find Yang Sishi. He did not tell him about the situation to avoid alerting the enemy. He only asked him to register all the people present and not let anyone go.

There are too many people now and it is very time-consuming and laborious to do this.

Although Yang Zheng did not understand Marquis Wu'an's intention, he was the eldest brother of the Crown Princess. Now the Crown Prince was assisting in the administration of state affairs, and this matter would sooner or later come before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He had to get it done no matter how difficult it was. "Marquis Wu'an, don't worry. Leave this matter to our Five Cities Military Division. I will definitely get it done."

Jiang Jinyan is not only a marquis, but also the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, a higher official position than Yang Zheng. Besides, the public security of Shengjing City is under his jurisdiction. If such a serious stampede occurs and it is brought to the attention of the prince, he will also have something to report.

Therefore, Yang Zheng was particularly cautious and proactive in handling this matter. After all, a new emperor appoints new ministers, and he once worked with the prince, so he was considered to be familiar with him.

The current prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture is Zhang Anyu. While the crown prince was away at war, it was Zhang Anyu who handled the official business of Jingzhao Prefecture. Lord Zhang even flattered the crown prince in front of the crown princess, so Yang Zheng thought that there was a reason why Lord Zhang was promoted so quickly.

Jiang Jinyan also handed over the two people caught by the Cheng brothers to Yang Zheng.

The two were also dressed as scholars, and they kept shouting, "Why are you holding us back?"

Jiang Jinyan deliberately said, "Because someone accused you of stepping on him, we are taking you back to the government office. If this is true, you have to compensate the other party."

The two almost laughed out of anger, "With so many people here, who can prove that we stepped on him? I also said that I was stepped on and injured, so who will pay for it?"

"This is perfect. You can also identify the person who stepped on you. If it is true, the government will seek justice and compensation for you."

Yang Zhengdao, "Take them away." He didn't expect that Wu'an Hou would catch the two suspects so quickly. He is indeed a talented man with a sharp brain, unlike him, a rough man who only knows how to catch people.

Yang Zheng also learned to be smart. He brought all the suspicious persons back to the yamen for further decision.

Jiang Jinyan, Xiao Yu and the Cheng brothers were all students, and they all took the exam and did very well. Since someone said that the cause was cheating by the candidates, it was inconvenient for them to stay here. After explaining the situation to Yang Zheng, they quietly left.
