After the three yuan and the third, the ministers angered the ceremony and the music collapsed

Chapter 21 Posts from the Minister of Rites
Gu Hongyuan walked out of the ceremony team, and said anxiously: "What, tell me, where is Jiang Zhao?"

It's no wonder that Gu Hongyuan was so anxious. When he saw Jiang Zhao's article during the test that day, he wanted to see who the person who wrote such a strange article was.

But at that time, Jiang Zhao slipped away too fast and missed seeing her.

When the list was announced this morning, Gu Hongyuan thought he could see Jiang Zhao, but Jiang Zhao never showed up.

How can this not make Gu Hongyuan anxious?
So today when the golden flower post was given away, he personally followed the ceremony team to deliver the golden flower post to Jiang Zhao. Unexpectedly, the officials of the official department called several times but no one came to receive the golden flower post.

Gu Hongyuan was anxious.

He was anxious whether Jiang Zhao was recruited by those aristocratic families, or was murdered by the children of the aristocratic families.

Over the years, this kind of thing has happened endlessly.

As the saying goes, talented people come from poor families.

Although the children from poor families are poor, they are more eager to obtain fame and fame than the children from aristocratic families, and they work harder when studying.

But there is only one at the top of the list, and the powerful family has powerful hands and eyes, and they will always use various means to prevent poor families from participating in the palace examination.

Some were willing to be recruited by the aristocratic family, and some wanted to fight, but were murdered by the children of the aristocratic family.

Now that the poor family has managed to produce a Jiang Zhao, it is absolutely impossible to let the aristocratic family succeed.

Si Mubai didn't know Gu Hongyuan, but judging by his clothes, he was probably not a petty official.

Seeing that the anxiety in his expression did not seem to be fake, he cupped his hands and said, "My lord, after the test that day, Brother Jiang Zhao and I went to the restaurant to drink and relax together."

"Unexpectedly, on the way back, I met a man who failed to pawn his wife and beat his wife. Brother Jiang Zhao was always jealous of evil, so he stepped forward to fight for the woman's injustice, and went to the capital to report to the officials."

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Yin of Jingdu thinks that pawning a wife is nothing more than a family matter, so he doesn't want to take over the case. Brother Jiang Zhao is young and energetic, and he contradicts Mr. Yin in a fit of anger."

"I was thrown into prison by Lord Fu Yin and sentenced to exile for three thousand miles."

Si Mubai told Gu Hongyuan the whole story, without any embellishment.

He knew that if he added oil and vinegar, Gu Hongyuan would find out as soon as he checked, and Jiang Zhao would be harmed instead.

Listening to Si Mubai's narration, Gu Hongyuan's expression did not change at all from the beginning to the end.

Just ask, "Is what you said true?"

Now it's just Si Mubai's one-sided opinion. As the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he can sit in this position, so naturally he won't trust anyone easily.

Si Mubai didn't expect Gu Hongyuan to fully believe in himself, but he just hoped that Gu Hongyuan could follow him to the prison in Kyoto Prefecture to take a look.

So he replied: "Whether what Wan Sheng said is true or not, you only need to follow Wan Sheng to the prison in Kyoto Prefecture to find out."

Seeing Si Mubai's appearance like this, Gu Hongyuan was convinced.

If you deceive him, it is absolutely impossible to go to the capital with him, isn't that a self-inflicted trap?

Moreover, the pawning of his wife was indeed illegal according to the laws of Tianyu. Jiang Zhao went to report to the officials, but was thrown into prison, and even exiled for three thousand miles.

Even if Jiang Zhao is just a commoner, he shouldn't be exiled for three thousand miles, and he can be sent home after a lesson at most.

Unless it is a heinous murderer, or an official who has made a big mistake, he will be exiled for three thousand.

But Jiang Zhao still has fame and fame, even if Chen Lianghan didn't know that Jiang Zhao would pass the Huiyuan exam, even if he was a Huiyuan, he had no right to deal with it.

Thinking of this, Gu Hongyuan said: "This officer is convenient for you to take a trip to the capital. If what you said is true, this officer will definitely make the decision for Jiang Zhao."

"But if you lie to me, I will beat you fifty times."

Si Mubai was not angry, he just bowed his hands and said yes, what he said was true.

Gu Hongyuan went to Kyoto with him.

In Kyoto Prefecture.

Chen Lianghan is dealing with various cases, large and small, in Huaijing City.

It has to be said that Chen Lianghan was able to sit in this position because of his skills.

Although usually insatiable greed, but in the face of cases where there is no money to be made, he is more concerned and has won a lot of good reputation for himself.

Therefore, the vision of heaven and earth in Jiang Zhao's poem "Qin Ji Le" last time did not have much influence on him.

Suddenly the subordinates outside the door came down to report: "My lord, Mr. Gu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is here."

Hearing the report from his subordinates, Chen Lianghan was puzzled. He has always been in the capital and the official department, so why did the official minister suddenly come here today?

However, doubts turned into doubts, Chen Lianghan still got up and prepared to greet him. After all, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials was a second-rank official position, which was more than a star and a half higher than his fourth-rank official position.

When Chen Lianghan came to the living room, he saw Gu Hongyuan sitting on the seat drinking tea, and Si Mubai in white was standing beside him.

Chen Lianghan murmured in his heart, how could this kid, Si Mubai, be here, he still came with the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

He suddenly felt something was wrong, and immediately gave his confidant a look. That confidant had been with him for many years, and he understood what he meant with just a look, and went to work.

Gu Hongyuan, who was sitting in his seat, saw Chen Lianghan walking in. The expression on Chen Lianghan's face changed instantly, with a slightly obsequious smile, he stepped forward and said with a smile:
"Master Gu came to this capital in person today, but he made the capital flourish and flourish."

But Gu Hongyuan didn't agree with him, and said coldly: "This Kyoto Prefecture is His Majesty's Kyoto Prefecture, when did it become yours?"

Along the way, he talked with Si Mubai, and found that Si Mubai was a good young man with good conduct and self-motivation.

Gu Hongyuan has been an official for many years, so he still has the ability to know people.

Therefore, I have already believed most of what Si Mubai said in the inn before.

What's more, this Chen Lianghan's actions have deceived the people, but he can't deceive him. He usually plunders the people's fat and anointment, and whoever gives more money will win the lawsuit.

Therefore, Gu Hongyuan didn't give him a good face.

When Gu Hongyuan said this, Chen Lianghan said a little embarrassingly: "It's an official slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, I hope Mr. Gu will not take the blame."

Gu Hongyuan snorted coldly, and said, "I'm not here to blame you, but because of Jiang Zhao."

"I heard that Jiang Zhao is a juror, but he came to report to the officials to complain about a woman's pawning of his wife, but you put him in prison and sentenced him to exile for three thousand miles. Is there such a thing?"

After hearing Gu Hongyuan's words, Chen Lianghan glanced at Si Mubai, and instantly understood their purpose.

This is to bring the Minister of the Ministry of Officials to find a place for Jiang Zhao, but I didn't expect that Si Mubai could invite the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

At the same time, he scolded Jing Huarong, the eldest son of the Duke of Zhen's mansion, in his heart.

Then Jiang Zhao didn't say anything about his background. If he knew that Jiang Zhao had Gu Hongyuan as his backer, he wouldn't dare to exile Jiang Zhao even if he had eight hundred guts.
