Chapter 17

As soon as these words came out, all four were shocked.

Who doesn't know that the crown prince is close to his mother's family and relies heavily on the family, but this exam is ordered by His Majesty, and everything is carried out under the eyes of everyone, how can there be such blatant favoritism and fraud?

The emperor signaled the crown prince to stop talking, his face darkened, and he said, "You say that the chief examiner colluded with the family, do you have evidence?"

Gu Qingzhou said: "The clerical students didn't bring them with them. They are all in the student room. Your Majesty can send someone to pick them up immediately."

The emperor raised his chin, and someone came over immediately. Gu Qingzhou said the position, and continued: "Half a month ago, the student had a bet with Fang's son. Fang Zhuo insulted the scholar. The student made an agreement with him that whoever ranks last will be from the Lanyuan Academy." Kowtow to the south city gate, the people present at the Lan Yuan can prove it," he saw Qiao Yu and Yuan Zanbi, "Qiao Xiang and that lord were there at that time."

The emperor looked at the two of them and said, "Is it related to you?"

Qiao Yu said: "Going back to Your Majesty, the minister and Master Yuan came to see Master Yuan's younger brother together, but unfortunately they bumped into Gu Qingzhou and Fang Zhuo arguing, there was indeed a bet, and the two of them even asked the minister to testify, but the minister did not agree."

Yuan Zan wrote succinctly: "There is indeed such a thing."

His gaze has been on Qiao Yu and never left.

"Huo Sibai used to be Mr. Fang Hechi's cleaner, and the students still have Mr. Huo's handwriting when he was a cleaner." Gu Qingzhou said.

Huo Sibai's face turned red and turned pale, and everyone's eyes fell on him, as if cut by a knife, he knelt down and said, "I dare not!"

But the emperor said: "Have you really been a cleaner of Fanghechi?"

Huo Sibai said: "I have indeed done it, but I never colluded with the Fang family. I don't know why this scholar wants to slander the old minister's innocence!"

The attendant took the letter and handed it to Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu tore open the envelope, spread it out in the wind, and after confirming that nothing had spilled on it, he said, "The source of the letter paper is unknown, I'd better read it to His Majesty."

The emperor said: "Read."

Qiao Yu finished reading the document word for word, which was respectful and fully agreed to what Fang Hechi had done.

Huo Sibai knelt on the ground, buried his head deeply, "I really don't have any."

The emperor said, "Let's see if it's your handwriting."

Huo Sibai grabbed the letter paper as if grasping the last straw, quickly scanned two lines, his expression turned pale, "Your Majesty, this must be a forgery, minister..."

Gu Qingzhou interrupted: "Then how does Lord Huo explain the 300 taels of gold received by the adult's wife?"

The emperor said coldly: "Go and investigate."

Huo Sibai said in a hoarse voice: "I may have lax management of the family, but I really don't know it, and it is true that I did not collude with the Fang family."

The emperor said coldly: "Take them all back, check slowly, I will see if there is anyone else who is lawless and commits crimes."

Gu Qingzhou, who has been watching for a long time, said: "The student has nothing to do. He knows that he can't bear torture. There are many variables in the prison. The student would rather die than betray. The student has never thought of going back alive today. If he can serve as a soldier in the world If the child finds a clear path, the student will die in a proper place even if he is doomed." As soon as the words fell, Gu Qingzhou spit out a mouthful of black blood, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Eunuch He said loudly: "Quickly pass on to the imperial physician, pass on to the imperial physician!"

Bai You, the commander of the front office, stepped forward and shook his head at the emperor.

He said that he wanted to show his ambition by death, so he swallowed the poison in advance.

Now there is really no evidence of death, Huo Sibai wants to cry but has no tears.

Xie Jujin came to his senses at this moment, this is probably another game.

Just like the last product competition, perhaps the emperor and Qiao Yu will act together.

Xie Jujin secretly sighed.

The man is dead, and the next thing His Majesty will do is to be furious and demand a thorough investigation to make this exam fairer, even favoring scholars.Yuan Zan pen thought.

He looked at Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu was holding the document and looking down at it. His eyelashes were long and dense, and he couldn't see the inner expression clearly.

Sure enough, the emperor stared blankly at the corpse for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, very good."

All the courtiers knelt down and said in unison: "Your Majesty, please appease your anger."

"What are you angry about?" the emperor said, "It is my blessing and the country's fortune to have such a group of courtiers in Wei State who are cunning and thoughtful. If someone doubts it, they will coerce and lure them. If they fail to differentiate, they will be killed."

Qiao Yu said: "Your Majesty, this matter is due to the negligence of the ministers, please forgive me!"

The emperor laughed back angrily, "If I don't come today, will this person die in vain? The news of cleaning up the examination room, shutting up the candidates, and reaching my ears is still respectful in the examination room, isn't it? The common man's sword technique, which makes people die silently, as if there is no such person at all, is your method!"

The emperor took a deep breath, pushed away the eunuch who was about to help him, and said coldly: "Yuanqing, the ranking is unfair, so I chose the exam according to your opinion. If even the examiner can be bribed, What do you say?"

Yuan Zan wrote: "Go back to Your Majesty, then change the topic, select another examiner, and thoroughly investigate who is behind the scenes."

The emperor nodded, "What if I want you to do this?"

Yuan Zan wrote: "I will do my best."

"Okay, okay, after half a month, I want to see the results of your all-out efforts." The emperor said, he lowered his eyes, and the two sons who were entrusted with important tasks were kneeling beside him, and the other son had nothing to do with him, and he might be complacent Kneeling on the ground, "A thorough investigation," he pointed at Qiao Yu as if casually, making the courtiers who thought this was a bureau to be more sure of their inner thoughts, "You investigate."

Qiao Yu nodded and said, "Yes."

"Huo Sibai," the emperor paused.

Huo Sibai knelt on the ground, his face ashen.

"Send it to the Ministry of Criminal Justice first."

Huo Sibai tremblingly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

The atmosphere was extremely tense, the emperor looked at the dignified prince, and said with a sneer, "If I think it's unfair in the future, what will you do?"

The prince was shocked and said: "Father, my son absolutely dare not have such rebellious thoughts."

The emperor waved his hands impatiently, and didn't want to hear these same explanations at all, so he just said to Yuan Zan: "Yuanqing is in charge of the exam, and you can handle everything according to your own discretion."

Yuan Zan wrote: "Yes."

The emperor glanced at the officials again, sneered, and then turned away.

Seeing the emperor and his party leaving in a mighty manner, everyone got up from the ground.

The smell of blood in the hall was too heavy, and obviously only one person died, but it was so heavy that he suffocated.

Qiao Yu said: "After this incident, the exam will probably be much fairer. No matter how dissatisfied the aristocratic family is, they still have to worry about His Majesty's thoughts."

Yuan Zan wrote: "Yes."

He looked calm and his tone was calm.

Qiao Yu sensed something was wrong with him, "What's wrong with you?"

Yuan Zanbi was thoughtful, "I was just thinking, this is indeed a good method. If there is such a big disturbance, at least no one will dare to do something this year." His voice was very soft, "Your Majesty probably thought of it, even if he came I don't know when I see this scene, I will naturally be very angry, even if he doesn't care who the person who died is."

Yuan Zanbi's eyes are dark and bright, they are a pair of eyes that make people calm down, at this moment Qiao Yu looked at her, only feeling cold in her heart.

Qiao Yu's face gradually turned cold, "I seem to understand what you mean."

Yuan Zanbi said: "Don't dare." He tried his best to restrain his urge to blink.

Qiao Yu said coldly: "Why don't you dare? You want to say that I did it, or that I ordered others to do it. Scholars do everything possible to climb up. Isn't it worthwhile to die for the future of a bunch of people? Who would refuse such a chance to make money without losing money, and who could refuse?"

"I guess you're thinking, I was the one who wanted to enter the Orchid Court, and I was the one who talked to Gu Qingzhou, and then tried every means to persuade the emperor to go to the examination room, until Gu Qingzhou died and the emperor ordered a thorough investigation. No matter what Huo Sibai has He didn't collude with the Fang family, those things are beyond his grasp, am I right?" Qiao Yu's voice was so low that only the two of them could hear him, but he spoke extremely fast, "Who can Finding those evidences, or rather, who could forge those evidences? That's a pretty big deal, isn't it."

Qiao Yu's face was frighteningly pale, as if as long as Yuan Zanbi nodded, the last bit of human-like things on him would disappear.

It's too perfect, it's so natural, it's so perfect that it seems that Qiao Yu played a very skillful chess game and played everyone on the chessboard.

In Yuan Zan's mind, he is probably complacent!

only……

Qiao Yu's face turned pale with anger, and Yuan Zanbi was about to speak when a young eunuch walked up to the two of them and said, "Qiao Xiang, Master Yuan."

Qiao Yu said coldly, "What's the matter?"

"Qiao Xiang, Your Highness the Third Prince invites you to go to his residence to have a talk." The little eunuch did not understand what happened between the two adults, and replied cautiously.

Qiao Yu wanted to flick his sleeves, but he stopped talking, and said, "Okay, the truth is known."

Yuan Zanbi slowly let out a sigh of relief as he watched his leaving back.
