One Piece: BABY5's Love in the World

Chapter 158 Experience the boarding battle

Although the token fell into Feng Ye's hand in just a flash, and Feng Ye left directly holding the token without giving the people present a chance to see it clearly, it does not mean that everyone did not know that What does something represent?

Several people were shocked. Just throwing a token at random can command a second-grade governor. How much power does it take to do this?

Although this boy is nineteen, he looks like he is just seventeen or eighteen years old. How can he have such great power...

Because they didn't see clearly what the token was, the Zhang family and his son could only guess Ji Junyue's identity with shock. However, Yan Hua suddenly thought of Zhang Xianli's strange words and deeds just now. As soon as he turned his eyes, his eyes fell on on Zhang Xianli, who looked calm.

Everyone was shocked and full of speculation because of the token, but Zhang Xianli was not surprised or surprised, unless he knew the identity of the kid opposite him early on.

Thinking of this, Yan Hua leaned over and asked softly: "Do you know the guy opposite?"

Zhang Xianli shook his head without any psychological burden and said in a low voice: "It's just like an old friend I know."

"Just brag. If you are just like an old friend and can drive a governor when faced with him, why don't you react at all with shock?"

Yan Hua didn't believe it at all. Even though he was usually a playboy, he had a clear conscience and would never let his guard down at the critical moment. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to pass the exam with his own ability.

Zhang Xianli knew that his reaction just now had aroused suspicion, but he would never admit it to death, so with a calm expression of a handsome young man, he said something that made Yan Hua roll his eyes.

"This is not because Young Master Ji looks like my old friend. My old friend's identity is unusual, so it is logical that Young Master Ji's identity is extraordinary."

Well, this reason is so wonderful that people cannot refute it. It’s not that I can’t refute it because I’m convinced, but I’m speechless because of this weird statement.

Weisheng Liyao frowned slightly when he thought of his previous guess. Although he couldn't see the token very clearly just now, he threw out a token that was enough to drive the governor, which made him unable to suppress his heart. Jumping wildly, because the results of the facts are becoming more and more obvious...

That handsome young master opposite is most likely the one...

Thinking of this, Weisheng Liyao's expression also became a little weird. Although the slightly stiff and uneasy expression was not obvious, it also made his whole look somewhat unspeakably twisted.

Ji Junyue glanced at Weisheng Liyao calmly. Seeing his expression, her heart moved and she made a guess.

This humble Li Yao can calmly exchange a few words with her back and forth, no matter what his true emotions are inside, just because he can hold it together on the outside, he is a talent.

Nowadays, her behavior and Zhang Xianli's words and deeds are enough to be guessed by the calmness and wit shown by Li Yao, a young man.

Just when the people in the wing here were having different thoughts because of Ji Junyue's actions, Feng Ye had already gone to the governor's mansion with the token of a first-grade general.

Because he knew that Ji Junyue didn't have much time to waste here, Feng Ye didn't follow any normal procedures and went directly to the mansion to find a servant and asked the governor Lu Rulin about his whereabouts. He appeared in the study like a ghost.

Lu Rulin, who was checking the reports from various cities and counties, saw a person suddenly appear in the room. Even though he was calm and used to seeing each other in big scenes, he was startled.

Subconsciously, he opened his mouth to shout to catch the assassin, but he didn't expect that the young man in the dark blue brocade robe raised his hand, and a first-class general's token made of dark iron came into Lu Rulin's eyes, making the words he was about to blurt out abrupt. Got stuck in the neck.

"I am delivering the order on the orders of General Ji."

The cold and sharp voice was like a sheathed sword. Although it was not sharp, it made people's hearts tremble.

Lu Rulin was stunned, General Ji?

He stared blankly at the Black Iron Token in the young man's hand. The token was definitely real, and as the young man turned his palm, a majestic word "Ji" behind the token was revealed in his eyes.

season……

Before Lu Rulin's mind could flash the answer, his heart was already beating wildly uncontrollably. The next moment, an afterthought of realization suddenly popped into his mind, making him turn pale with fright.

No...it's not...

Lu Rulin had a sad face. Although he didn't want to admit what he knew in his heart, looking at the young man opposite him who clearly had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks but an imposing manner, he had to walk out from the desk uneasily and bowed to the young man.

"Your Majesty Lu Rulin has met General Ji."

Since the other party uses the identity of the general, he naturally has to follow him. He can't just call the queen directly...

Feng Ye looked at Lu Rulin expressionlessly, took out the dozen copied test papers from his arms and handed them to him.

"The general has an order to quickly investigate the matter of the Qiu Wei election. All involved persons, regardless of official position or origin, will be dealt with according to the law. The general will leave early tomorrow morning. I hope to see the results before leaving."

Lu Rulin quickly took the dozens of papers and saw that they were actually examination papers!

I didn't quite understand it at first, but after hearing the young man's words, my heart sank, and a wry smile flashed across my eyes. Every imperial examination would inevitably involve secret dealings. In the past, it was nothing, as long as those people could suppress it, but this time Fortunately, he was met by the Queen.

Now that I have come to him and brought the test papers of those who passed the exam, there is one person who is obviously not the person who passed the exam. I know without checking that someone must have committed fraud and was discovered by the Queen...

Fortunately, in order to save time, Feng Ye directly told Lu Rulin what he found, which also saved him a lot of energy.

After reading the examination papers, Lu Rulin could tell without checking that it must be Zhao Minyou who did it to pave the way for his prospective son-in-law.

The literary talent of the scholar named Zhang Xitai is indeed better than that of Yang Xuan, who won the imperial examination. Without reading the two examination papers, you can tell the difference by comparing them together.

There is no reason why Yang Xuan won the exam, but Zhang Xitai, who did better than Yang Xuan, failed. This is obviously because someone secretly changed the places where they won the exam.

After the matter became clear, Lu Rulin did not dare to delay and immediately led a team of troops to go directly to Zhao Minyou's residence to capture the person.

He is from the Duke of Ping's government, and those from different parties are political enemies. Naturally, he does not need to be polite to Zhao Minyou and Feng Zhixue, which is good news, otherwise he really doesn't know what to do.

Although he had never met Ji Yue, he had heard about her deeds. This person was not an ordinary noblewoman. In addition to being a queen, she was also a general with military power.

And he is still a person who can control the country with the emperor. If he dares to be half-hearted about such a troublesome person, I am afraid that she will kill him on the spot, and it will be in vain.

Is it possible that Lord Pingguo can go to meet a queen who holds the same power as the emperor because of him?

Therefore, Lu Rulin was extremely glad that the person the queen wanted to kill today was not from his own party. He did it quickly and neatly. He led his troops directly into Zhao Minyou's mansion and arrested him. Not only Zhao Minyou, but also the supervisory censor. Feng Zhixue and Juren Yang Xuan.

When Lu Rulin arrested people, he did not hide it at all in order to cut through the mess quickly. Therefore, when the three people were brought back to the Yamen prison by the governor's soldiers, the matter had already been spread on the street.

Lu Rulin did not go to the lobby to hear the matter publicly in accordance with normal procedures. After all, the queen was leaving early tomorrow morning. If normal procedures were followed, the result would not be available in one night.

Therefore, Lu Rulin had the three of them arrested directly in prison and interrogated in private.

Feng Zhixue and the other three were arrested inexplicably. Yang Xuan was better off. After all, he was just a civil servant. But unlike Zhao Minyou, Feng Zhixue was an official of the imperial court, and he was suddenly arrested and thrown into prison.

Although the reason is private bribery and fraud, it still requires a three-party trial and an honest trial. There is no way to directly convict...

Therefore, as soon as the three of them saw Lu Rulin appear, Yang Xuan was fine, but Feng Zhixue and Zhao Minyou glared and yelled.

"Lu Rulin, you want to avenge your private revenge! You actually want to accuse us unjustly without any evidence. Do you really think you can convict us of this?!"

Although they had indeed done this, they didn't have proof yet, and they were not stupid. How could they admit it themselves? Even if the evidence was conclusive, they would never admit it. They didn't believe that Lu Rulin would dare to kill them without reporting it.

As long as Lu Rulin reports it, the King of Qing and Duke Wen will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it!

However, according to common sense, the two people's abacus was good. If Lu Rulin wanted to treat them, it would not be easy, and the final result would be loud thunder but little rain.

But it happened that the person who really wanted to punish the two of them was not Lu Rulin, but the current queen, and a queen with real power.

Lu Rulin originally thought that these two people were unlucky enough, but now he saw that they were still looking like they didn't know how to live or die, and he immediately felt happy.

"You are on the verge of death and you still don't repent. How can I arrest you when you have no proof? I have read the examination papers of those who passed the exam. Yang Xuan's grades are obviously not as good as Zhang Xitai's, but he has become a candidate. Both of them have He is one of the invigilators, so he has something to do with it, not to mention that Yang Xuan is also Mr. Zhao’s prospective son-in-law, he is really a good father-in-law, he has even paved the road for others."

Lu Rulin's gloating face immediately made Feng Zhixue and Zhao Minyou blush, but their hearts twitched. Physical evidence is actually easy to find. You only need to compare the test papers of those who passed the exam with Zhang Xitai's test papers to find something is wrong. .

Thinking of this, Zhao Minyou glanced at Feng Zhixue with some complaints. If Feng Zhixue hadn't seen Zhang Xitai's promising literary talents and wanted to win over the Qing king's faction, and insisted on leaving his examination papers for the Qing king to read, he would have given them away long ago. If the examination papers were destroyed and all traces were destroyed, there would be no physical evidence as it is now!

When Feng Zhixue saw that Zhao Minyou was obviously complaining about him, he glared back not to be outdone. Is this the time for internal strife? ! Instead of complaining to each other, it’s better to find a solution!

Zhao Minyou understood Feng Zhixue's meaning and knew that the most important thing now was not to start internal strife, but to find a way to suppress this matter.

Thinking of this, Zhao Minyou suddenly changed his face. He no longer had the tit-for-tat confrontation at the beginning. Instead, he looked at Lu Rulin standing outside the cell door in a flattering manner and said with a smile.

"Mr. Lu, although we are not in the same party, after all, being officials in the same dynasty can be regarded as colleagues. And now that the emperor is in charge, the masters we are loyal to have put aside their past grudges and cooperated. Shouldn't we subordinates also follow suit? Why hurt us?" To keep each other harmonious.”

Feng Zhixue also smiled quickly and said: "Yes, Mr. Lu, that Zhang Xitai is just a commoner, a boy from the village, with no background. Why should Mr. Lu embarrass his colleagues for such a useless person? If things get too big, If our two factions fight, it will only benefit others, right?"

There is no need to say who this bystander is, everyone present can understand.

When Feng Ye, who had been standing behind Lu Rulin as an invisible person, heard this, the corners of his lips curved up coldly, and he looked at Zhao Minyou and Feng Zhixue as if he were looking at a dead person.

The chill spreading unconsciously around his body made Lu Rulin, who was standing in front of him, feel a chill down his back. He shuddered unconsciously and suddenly remembered that there was someone from the Empress standing behind him...

Thinking of this, the eyes looking at Feng Zhixue and Zhao Minyou changed from sympathy to numbness towards the dying people.

This matter is obviously because the Empress wants to make the decision for Zhang Xitai. With such a big backer and no background, they can all die.

What's more, to talk about the Emperor in front of the Queen's people and not say anything, but also to hint at joining forces to deal with the Emperor, this is obviously because he is too slow to die...

"You two adults should admit it. Now the evidence is conclusive. You secretly collected bribes and secretly changed the number of candidates. You should be executed according to the law."

Upon hearing that Lu Rulin actually wanted to kill them, Feng Zhixue and Zhao Minyou immediately became furious: "How dare you!"

Yang Xuan, who had been pretending to be an ostrich next to him, turned pale and turned pale. He didn't care much and said quickly.

"Sir, spare your life! This is what Mr. Zhao wanted to do himself. I had no knowledge of this beforehand, sir. Please see me clearly. At most, I have committed the crime of not reporting what I knew, and the crime is not punishable by death, my lord..."

Zhao Minyou didn't expect that he was still insisting, but in the end he was stabbed by one of his own people. Yang Xuan's words completely confirmed that he and Feng Zhixue were accused of privately accepting bribes to replace Juren. This was considered a witness!

With all the personal and material evidence available, even if they did report to the court, the King of Qing and the Duke of Ping would be unable to save them...

"You... what are you talking nonsense about? Don't slander me!" Zhao Minyou was trembling with anger, pointing at Yang Xuan with one finger, and his vicious eyes widened as if he wanted to eat him.

Feng Zhixue was also anxious. If Yang Xuan didn't change his words, they would be in danger!

"You bastard! How could you falsely accuse us just to get rid of the charges? It's obviously you who took advantage of being Mr. Zhao's prospective son-in-law and took the opportunity to secretly change the test papers!"

Feng Zhixue was just a conditioned reflex in anger, but after he said the words, he felt that the reason was extremely feasible, and he directly insisted that Yang Xuan had slandered them.

Zhao Minyou is also a man with brains, not to mention that in the face of life and death, let alone a prospective uncle, it is hard to say that he can betray his wife and daughter, he said quickly.

"Lord Lu, you have to be careful. It's obvious that this ambitious man secretly changed the test papers when I wasn't paying attention. Even if I'm guilty, it's just a crime of lax supervision. This kid is the heinous one!"

Yang Xuan was stunned by the shameless behavior of the two people, and then his face turned red with anger. He couldn't care less about his dignity, and he immediately jumped up and pointed at the two people and cursed.

"You are so shameless! It was clearly because of my low status that you, Zhao Minyou, changed the test papers on your own initiative and made me a candidate. I didn't know anything about it beforehand. If I had known about it, I would never have agreed to what you did!"

How could Zhao Minyou and Feng Zhixue let Yang Xuan say such remarks that would drag them to death, and they quickly cursed.

Feng Ye didn't have time to listen to the three people's bickering, so he said coldly: "Now that the certification evidence is in place, Mr. Lu will just announce the verdict. I will wait to report to the master."

When Lu Rulin heard Feng Ye speak, he didn't dare to delay. Anyway, as he said, the witnesses and material evidence were all in place, so there was no reason to delay any longer. Besides, he didn't want to offend the queen for someone from another party. , so he quickly said to the guard not far behind him.

"Feng Zhixue and Zhao Minyou secretly changed their imperial examination results, accepted bribes, and despised the imperial power. They deserve death. Now that the witnesses and physical evidence are available, they are sentenced to death, their property is confiscated, and they are immediately sent to Caishikou for execution!"

Then Lu Rulin looked at Yang Xuan, whose face was pale, and said hesitantly.

"As for the scholar Yang Xuan, he did not report the knowledge, but he wanted to repent temporarily and become a witness. The death penalty can be avoided and the life penalty is difficult to forgive. From now on, he will be disqualified from the imperial examination and will never participate in the scientific examination. He is ordered to slap twenty big boards to serve as a warning to others."
