What should I do if the master has changed?

"Zhuangyuanlang, do you have anything else to say?" The man in black official uniform looked at the young man in front of him.The young man was the champion of the new department hand-picked a few days ago. As a result, he had just had a good time for a few days. Before he could go home to announce the good news, he was found to be involved in the fraud case and was locked up at his place for interrogation.

"What?" Gu Xingze's voice was hoarse, his eyes were half closed, and he no longer had the strength to refute him.When he first came in, he was lucky and longed for this chance.But who can come in and get out of this prison of the Ministry of Justice casually?He himself knows best whether he has participated in the fraud. It is obvious that someone wants to punish him.

"Say that I did participate in the fraud case, and the Gu family's reputation will be ruined." He reluctantly looked up at the official and said weakly.

"Then it's better to let me die here. When the time comes, my lord, you say I confess." Gu Xingze lowered his head weakly again, and suddenly fell asleep.In the dream, the words of parents and teachers are still in my ears, you must be open and honest, and you must not lose your integrity.He was a child prodigy and a genius since he was a child. He was admitted as a scholar at the age of ten, and a candidate for Juren at the age of fifteen. Now he is in his early twenties. He came to the capital to take the exam. He was the top student in high school, but he was involved in a fraud case.

The man looked at Gu Xingze, he had seen a lot of people with integrity, some had integrity before they came in, and they were all recruited before they were tortured.Some would not say a word against their will even if they were beaten to death.But those people were not like the young man in front of him, because he was too young and too weak.Gu Xingze, who was born in a scholarly family, has never suffered much except for studying.

You can't be beaten to death. Now many people are counting on being beaten to death to leave a lasting name in history. A group of old men can't even line up. How could it be the turn of a young boy like him?

Gu Xingze had already fainted, and was temporarily put back in prison without torture.In fact, how could the punishment in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice be so easy to endure, it's just that someone instructed not to destroy this talent.

On the second day in the court hall, the emperor, who was just in his early twenties, sat on the dragon chair, listening to the noise of the ministers below.His face was expressionless, as if he was watching them play a monkey show, he found it quite interesting, and deliberately let them quarrel for a while.

"In this fraud case, except for the new champion Gu Xingze, everyone else visited Prime Minister Cao before the exam, and they all regarded themselves as the prime minister's disciples. The one who confessed, Mr. Qian, is also from the same hometown as the prime minister. I am afraid that this matter is inseparable from the prime minister. I hope His Majesty will investigate clearly." A censor came out and said, pointing the finger at Cao Yin, the current prime minister.

Prime Minister Cao Yin was nearly fifty years old, with a beard, and looked like a handsome middle-aged man. He looked quite gentle, but he was not polite when he spoke.

"Master Zhang said that Mr. Qian and I are from the same hometown, so I colluded with him. The other person involved in the incident is also from the same town as Mr. Zhang. Presumably this matter has something to do with Mr. Zhang?" the prime minister said. He pointed the finger at the censor again.Although everyone knows that Yu Shi is not sure what to say, but he shouldn't do such a fraudulent thing.

However, this censor's sentence made all the officials in the same hometown as the person involved in the case uneasy. If this logic is followed, at least half of the current imperial court can be involved.Some of them are indeed related to the fraud case, and they hate this censor even more at the moment.

Zhang Yushi stood back resentfully, while others stood up and expressed their opinions one after another.The adults below were throwing the ball around, and they had been arguing for a long time without any results.The emperor couldn't help yawning, with tears in his eyes, and looked sleepily at the people below.

"What's the result of the discussion, all the lovers?" the emperor asked with great interest.

"I feel that the officials in charge of the examination and the cheating students caught in this fraud case should be dealt with as soon as possible, so as to imitate others. However, the champion of the new department has been known as a child prodigy since he was a child. He passed the examination at the age of 15. His Majesty also read it. The article he wrote is indeed the number one scholar, there is really no need to participate in fraud." Cao Yin said to the emperor.

"En." The emperor nodded wearily, wondering if he had listened to Cao Yin's words, but half a month later, the decision to deal with the fraud case had been made.Several officials in charge of the imperial examination who were the masterminds were all executed after autumn, and the candidates who cheated were judged according to the seriousness of the situation.

However, Gu Xingze, the champion who was implicated and imprisoned this time, was proved not to have participated in the fraud, but was involved innocently.Emperor Rende still let him be the number one scholar, and arranged for him to be an official, and reported after three months of rest.

Lying on the bed, Gu Xingze, who has been cleaned and put on good medicine, still feels a little dazed until now, not because he entered the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and came out again, but because he feels that all this is not real. Although he has this body and everything Everything is normal, but he still feels that something is wrong.

Shangguan Yunqi's intuition is very accurate, but it is a pity that he is now in the illusion of Fusang, using the identity of the number one scholar Gu Xingze, so naturally he can't remember who he is.

He tried hard to think about it, but his body was not as strong as his brain. He had suffered too much these days and had little rest, so he fell asleep immediately.

After three months of recuperation, the new top scholar named Gu Xingze, Shangguan Yunqi, went to report. He was assigned to work in the Ministry of Officials. Although his official position was not high, the Ministry of Officials was in charge of personnel, and the department dealing with officials was naturally rich.As for Gu Xingze, he was in the department in charge of official evaluation, and every time an evaluation was performed, countless officials rushed to give money. This was a good position that no one else would envy.

Before reporting to the Ministry of Officials, Gu Xingze still wanted to visit the prime minister and thank him, but then he thought, if he had a close relationship with the prime minister at this time, it was inevitable that some people would think that he was in collusion with the prime minister.In the officialdom, the most fearful thing is to form a party. Entering the officialdom is not as simple as when you were studying. There are too many things to pay attention to.

But it was not appropriate to not express it, so Gu Xingze specially prepared some special gifts from his hometown to give to Prime Minister Cao. They were all brought by his family when they came. The most special one was the calligraphy and painting of Dai Yi, a master of calligraphy who had paid for it.Dai Yi and Gu Xingze are old friends. He has a large collection of Dai Yi's calligraphy and paintings. It is well known that Prime Minister Cao likes calligraphy and painting. This gift should be considered to suit his appetite.

When a new official takes office, Gu Xingze will do his own thing honestly in the Ministry of Officials.Although he is the number one scholar, he has a good temper since he was a child. From the inside out, he looks like a frail scholar.And his boss also took good care of him and took him to learn how to handle official duties.It wasn't until I took Gu Xingze out for a social meeting that I accidentally said that I was told by the prime minister to take care of him more.

Gu Xingze did not expect the prime minister to take such good care of him. At this time, more than half a year has passed since the fraud case, and it seems that the disturbance has completely dissipated.The officials involved had already been executed, and the students who cheated had no hope of ever taking the exam to become an official again. Only Gu Xingze was left fully recovered from his injuries, with only a few scars left on his body.

The boss and the prime minister have a very close relationship, which is easy to infer. Although the boss and Cao Yin are not from the same hometown, his mother and Cao Yin are from the same hometown, and the two families have some twists and turns.Gu Xingze followed his boss, and gradually came into contact with the prime minister, and became close friends.

Two years later, Gu Xingze took over the position of the boss, and the boss was also promoted. At this moment, Gu Xingze was able to go to the morning court and see the emperor.

Shangguan Yunqi still felt something was wrong, he had lived here for nearly three years, but everything that happened was always somewhat unreal, making him always suspect that something was wrong.But in the illusion, he couldn't really find himself and wake up.

The emperor, who was two years older, still sat on the dragon chair with a bored expression, listening to their quarrel.Gu Xingze was very surprised to see the usual dog-like adults behave like this in court.He restrained his expression, sat in his seat, and suddenly heard Cao Yin's words, he raised his head, and his eyes happened to meet the emperor's.

The emperor had a good appearance, but unfortunately he didn't look like a good person.Gu Xingze lowered his head and listened carefully to what Cao Yin said.

It turned out that the floods in the south this year destroyed a lot of land, and the people were displaced and became refugees. Among the refugees, the active ones gathered the peasants who could not afford to eat, and prepared to rebel.

The rebellion is not because of the imperial court. Today's imperial court has not reached the fields where the sun sets, and it also has resettlement policies for refugees.In fact, what most people think is to scare the imperial court and come to recruit security, so as to gain a future.

Even if everyone is well aware of this, how to deal with the rebels is still a difficult problem.

The adults nominated candidates one after another, some were their own cronies, and some nominated more famous military generals. Only Cao Yin nominated Gu Xingze who had just been promoted to the position.

Gu Xingze was a literati, and everyone felt that things like putting down a rebellion should be done by generals, even Gu Xingze.But Gu Xingze is young after all, young people have spirit, and the prime minister is not recommending him to fight, but recommending him to be a consultant. To do such an adventurous thing.

"It's feasible." After listening to Cao Yin's recommendation, the emperor on the dragon chair took another look at Gu Xingze below, and agreed to let him go, and in the later arrangement, Gu Xingze did indeed go.

Not only did Gu Xingze go, but he also met the emperor who traveled in micro-clothes.

"Your Majesty." Looking at the emperor carefully for the first time, Gu Xingze couldn't help but take a second look. Before, he didn't think the emperor was a good person, but now he feels very familiar, and has an inexplicable sense of closeness to him, but he is also a little afraid .

"I came out secretly this time, those old men must be going crazy." The emperor smiled slightly, Gu Xingze somehow wanted to laugh too.
