Chapter 41 Conspiracy!

"My lord, Xiaosheng, my surname is Chen Mingde." The examinee spoke, but he didn't dare to look Zhao Wujiang directly.

"Who prepared the cheat sheet for you?"

Zhao Wujiang had seen the cheat sheet, it was different from other cheating examinees, it was a small piece of paper, which contained the answers to the time affairs policy questions.

As the final exam question of Ming Jing, only a few people know the topic of the exam. It is impossible for ordinary people to bet on the content of Shiwu Ce's exam. Obviously, there is someone behind the cheating candidate named Chen De.

"My lord, what rank are you?" Chen De asked.

Zhao Wujiang heard the meaning of it, in the end the official position was too high for him to know.

It doesn't matter how old you are, even if the king of heaven comes. He sneered, and said in a deep voice: "I give you two choices,

One: Say who is behind it.

Two: I'll take you into the interrogation room. "

Chen De's expression changed, he clasped his fists and said, "My lord, please back away from the left and right sides."

Zhao Wujiang took a deep look at him, and waved his hands to order the personnel of the Criminal Department and the cheating candidates to go down.

Only Zhao Wujiang, Minister of Rites and Chen De remained in the interrogation room of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

"Go ahead."

Chen De struggled, took a long breath, and said slowly: "The test questions are obtained from the adults."

As soon as the words fell, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites roared: "Fart! No one would do such a thing!"

He belongs to the sect of Zhangsun Wuji Zhu Suiliang, and usually respects Zhu Suiliang a lot.

"I only know that the exam questions come from the adults, and I don't know anything else." Chen De continued.

"Do you know what crime it is to frame the prime minister?" Zhao Wujiang narrowed his eyes, carefully studying Chen De's expression.

Chen De lowered his head: "Xiaosheng dare not talk nonsense."

"Master Zhao, can you listen to me?"

Minister of the Ministry of Rites was a little anxious, afraid that Zhao Wujiang would listen to it. He knew that Zhao Wujiang was sent by the emperor, and he would not care how high the people involved were.

Zhao Wujiang understood what the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was going to do, he just said indifferently: "Master Shangshu, I know what to say to the emperor, and I won't add any details."

"Lord Zhao, I'll hold a banquet at the Ministry of Rites. Let's talk about it in detail, okay?" the Minister of Rites said sincerely.

"Do you have anything else to explain?" Zhao Wujiang looked at Chen De with a serious expression.

"My lord, I have already told my lord what Xiaosheng knows, and I don't know much about the rest."

Zhao Wujiang decided to listen to what the Minister of Rites had to say, and then analyze it based on his own findings.

He left with the Minister of Rites, and before leaving, he summoned a small official from the Ministry of Punishment to take Chen De down.

Looking at Zhao Wujiang's handsome back when he left, Chen De's eyes changed, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smug smile.

……

Shang Shusheng, Ministry of Rites.

"Master Zhao, please." The Minister of Rites personally filled a glass of wine for Zhao Wujiang.

"Master Shangshu doesn't have to be like this."

"My lord Zhao, all my lords are devoted to the monarch and the country, so he will not do such a thing."

The Minister of Rites drank a cup by himself, and said earnestly.

Zhao Wujiang shook his head and smiled: "Designating power, cultivating talents and being loyal to the emperor are not in conflict with the country."

"Maybe. This officer means maybe, it is indeed possible, but it is really not necessary.

If the lords want talents, he can recommend them by himself. He is one of the prime ministers of the court, and he has this power. Why bother to take the risk of doing favoritism and cheating? "

It does make sense, Zhao Wujiang could tell that the Minister of Rites respected Zhu Suiliang very much.

"Have you ever thought about it, Mr. Shangshu, the people you recommend will be directly branded as your own faction, while the people who pass the imperial examination will have no traces, or in other words, there will be no obvious traces."

Minister of Rites was short of breath, and wanted to refute Zhao Wujiang, he opened his mouth, not knowing how to refute.

He let out a long breath and asked, "Did Mr. Zhao confirm that you are involved in malpractice for personal gain?"

"I'm just putting forward my own opinion reasonably." Zhao Wujiang rubbed his fingers together, and said with a smile: "It's just that at present, there are people who testify that the person who raised the issue behind the scenes is the Lord Zhu."

witness?

Zhao Wujiang suddenly realized something, and he fell into deep thought.

It went well, it went too well, if it was really Zhu Suiliang who dared to leak the exam questions, then he must have made perfect preparations, the examinee could not know that it was him behind him, at most he knew it was some adult.

It is impossible for Zhu Suiliang to hand out the exam questions himself, so he must have someone to prepare for it.

But will the servants tell the candidates that Zhu Suiliang is behind it?
Obviously not, so how did Chen De know?
Minister of Rites looked at Zhao Wujiang who fell into silence, shook his head with a wry smile, and began to think for himself.

Zhao Wujiang slowly closed his eyes, and activated the skill "Memory Recall".

He "returned" to the examination room of the Mingjing Department at that time.

Zhao Wujiang saw himself patrolling the examination room with his hands behind his back, and when he passed by Chen De, he found the cheat sheet in the middle of his cuff.

Zhao Wujiang kept observing Chen De's expression, there was nothing abnormal, and the memory scene was still moving forward.

"Zhao Wujiang" suppressed Chen De, and yelled: "I invigilate the exam, you want to cheat too?"

Afterwards, Chen De was framed, and he kept shouting about being wronged.

With a bang, the inkstone was knocked over.

Zhao Wujiang looked over suddenly, it was an examinee in the corner, then he looked back and saw that he was also attracted by the voice in the memory scene.

He ran to "Chen De" and saw that Chen De's expression was frozen and he stopped talking.

A code, what the hell is a code? Zhao Wujiang suddenly realized, he wondered what was the purpose of the code.

Should I keep silent and wait for rescue?
No, no, Chen De confided!
Yes, confided!
The purpose of those who practice favoritism is nothing more than to increase the number of people on their side, so if they are caught cheating, will they come to rescue?
Obviously not, they will abandon him, because it is impossible for candidates to know the true identity of the mastermind behind the scenes.

So, he was lying, Chen De was lying.

As for why you lie, why is the purpose, the purpose of the code.

If he is caught and can't become a person on his side, then change the plan and let him frame people from the hostile faction to make use of the remaining energy.

Zhao Wujiang took a deep breath and leaned back on the chair.

Afterwards, he entered the state of recalling memory again, returning to the memory scene of interrogating Chen De.

He observed Chen De's expression, there was no problem with Chen De's performance, until finally, when "Zhao Wujiang" turned his back and left the interrogation room, he saw Chen De's smug smile.

Sure enough, Chen De was framing Zhu Suiliang!
Zhao Wujiang looked terrified. Suddenly, he looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Rites who was thinking of himself, and asked:
"Master Shangshu, in which prison are the cheating candidates being imprisoned?"

"Of course it's a prison outside the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

Zhao Wujiang's eyes widened upon hearing this.

"Oops, those students are in danger!"

"You, Mr. Zhao, what are you talking about?"

The Minister of Rites was taken aback.

"go!"

Zhao Wujiang pulled up the Minister of Rites and ran to the Ministry of Punishment.
