Quickly travel through the white moonlight and go crazy

Chapter 13 A Good Wife Helps Me Qingyunzhi 13
In order to win the reputation of being a virtuous person, Li Yanshu, who was the number one scholar, went with them to sit in the government office to protest, even though he was very unhappy in his heart.

The scientific examination is required to be fair and impartial.

The impassioned students attracted a large crowd of onlookers.

A carriage stopped outside the crowd, and a hand as rough as dead wood half-opened the curtain.

"My lord, everything is going as planned."

The people in the carriage said nothing.

He just raised his hand slightly to indicate that he could go.

Above the court, the ministers were also quarreling.

Officials of all sizes who participated in this scientific expedition knelt on the ground, including Shen Chen.

At that time, the Minister of Rites, who was the chief examiner, was ill, and Shen Chen, the deputy examiner, was forced to take over.

She remembered that the articles she selected were from aristocratic families and distinguished students.

Moreover, it was agreed with all the ministers that the number one scholar would be from a branch of the Wang family.

The educational resources of aristocratic families and distinguished families are definitely better than those of poor families. They have been taught by great Confucians since they were young.

The family also has talents.

It’s just that this world is Daxuan’s world.

The emperor would not let aristocratic families ride on his head.

The ministers involved identified her in unison, saying that everything was arranged according to her orders.

After identifying him, Shen Chen hadn't spoken yet.

The minister took off his official hat, put it solemnly on the ground, and kowtowed to Qin Xuan.

"Your Majesty, you were forced to do so."

"If your Majesty does not believe it, I am willing to die to learn from it."

After saying that, he ran towards the pillar wrapped with dragon patterns.

Blood splattered on the spot.

Shen Chen looked at the messy ministers expressionlessly.

It was directed at her again.

In other words, it was coming towards Qin Xuan behind her.

Really good calculation.

This is a blatant conspiracy.

Now all the evidence points to her, and I am afraid that the news that she is the culprit of this scientific examination fraud case has spread throughout the capital.

Those people wanted to use public opinion to force Qin Xuan to bow his head.

This case involved all three forces in the court.

Shen Chen is Qin Xuan's confidant, and what Shen Chen means is what His Majesty means.

Even if all the evidence points to Shen Chen, many people can see that this is a frame-up.

Shen Chen had no reason to do this.

Or maybe His Majesty has no reason to do this at all.

Even if His Majesty wanted to weaken the power of the family, there was no need for such childish and mindless methods.

If Qin Xuan didn't deal with her, he would probably be heartbroken.

Regardless of whether it was true or false at this time, things have already happened.

None of the people on the list today are distinguished.

His Majesty's attitude is the truth of the matter.

Your Majesty has looked down on the aristocratic family for a long time.

If the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, will they be the next ones?

The human heart is complicated.

Human thoughts are also complex.

But if His Majesty really wants to appease the public's anger and comfort the nobles' hearts.

Shen Chen was dealt with in a confused manner.

Officials from poor families will also have uneasy feelings.

Shen Chen today is who they will be tomorrow.

His Majesty, whom they respected and trusted, could not protect them at all.

No matter how much they do, they will still be trusted by His Majesty.

The noble family wanted them to die, but they didn't even have the ability to resist.

Some officials are not afraid of death.

But they are willing to die for the country and the country, rather than die for an unfounded frame-up.

The person who designed this situation has a vicious heart.

No matter what Qin Xuan chooses, it will be wrong.

Seeing Qin Xuan's delay in making any move, the Minister of Rites also took off his official hat and looked at Qin Xuan with a sad and angry look.

"The veteran has served as the chief examiner of the scientific examination for many years and is well aware of the difficulties faced by the students." "If no one gives them justice, who will sincerely dedicate themselves to Daxuan in the future."

"Please, Your Majesty, don't destroy the hearts of students all over the world."

Qin Xuan's narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and his red lips parted slightly: "Are you threatening me?"

Shen Chen sat there on his knees, watching the dramas unfolding in front of him.

It was brilliant.

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, she would have wanted to applaud.

Anyone who hangs out in the court is not an old fox.

Who can't tell who is the real mastermind behind this?

The people present didn't care about Shen Chen's life or death at all. What they cared about was the emperor's choice.

The aristocratic family transferred the conflict to the poor family and nobles, and to the emperor's right-hand man.

They had already broken up with Qin Xuan, but without evidence, if Qin Xuan still wanted to be his wise king, he couldn't do anything to them.

The Minister of Civil Affairs looked at the messy court and stood up.

"Your Majesty, please give me three days, and I will definitely find out the truth."

The Minister of Rites said sarcastically: "The evidence is conclusive, with both witnesses and material evidence. Does the Minister of Personnel want to find out the truth or to protect Shen Chen?"

"It's already autumn, and the students taking the scientific examination are still sitting in front of the official school. It's freezing cold. They are the pillars of the future country. If we don't give them an explanation, they won't get up."

"What's more, the people are still watching."

Qin Xuan did not immediately convict Shen Chen, but the second official involved also stood up. He glanced at the Minister of Rites with a grimace, and then resolutely rushed towards the pillar again.

When rushing to Shen Chen.

Shen Chen stretched out his foot expressionlessly.

The official tripped and fell to the ground, covering his swollen face and screaming.

The officials collectively remonstrated, forcing Qin Xuan to make a decision quickly.

Otherwise, a lot of people in this court would probably die.

Everything you do leaves evidence.

They wanted to make a final conclusion immediately, without giving Qin Xuan time to check the evidence.

Shen Chen's face showed no trace of panic at being wronged. She smiled slightly and said, "Why are you so anxious, Mr. Shi?"

"Presumptuous!" The Minister of Rites glared angrily.

Shen Chen straightened his clothes and glanced at him.

Sometimes, the fights between these ministers are very simple and unpretentious.

They don't need any particularly careful planning.

Throwing dirty water is unnecessary.

Power oppresses.

Public opinion coerces.

Many people will be frightened and fall into their trap, like an antelope under the tiger's mouth, completely losing the ability to resist.

The Minister of Rites then spoke: "Shen Chen, you can plead guilty."

Shen Chen looked at him without any fear: "You have a clear conscience, why do you plead guilty?"

"Bold." The Minister of Rites said: "I ask your Majesty to torture Shen Chen to find out the truth."

He looked at Shen Chen with cruel eyes.

The Minister of Rites looked at Shen Chen, who was still facing death, with a trace of regret in his eyes.

He is a courageous young man.

Unfortunately.

Those who do not know the current affairs are distinguished.

It doesn't matter if he is a good and honest official, or if he is loyal to the little emperor.

He still couldn't protect her.

All the officials of the aristocratic family were sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, as if the matter had nothing to do with them.

There was a quarrel between the Ministry of Personnel and the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

The Ministry of Personnel requested a re-investigation of the case, while officials from the Ministry of Rites demanded that Shen Chen be executed immediately to quell public dissatisfaction.

Shen Chen, who was in the center of the whirlpool, watched them quarrel quietly.

Seeing the officials of the family strategizing, they looked like they had a chance to win.

She walked up to the first post where blood was flowing all over the ground but no one paid attention to the official.

He knelt down and felt his breath.

Not quite dead yet.

Pulling his hair, he took out a curved silver needle from the bracelet he wore, straightened it, and pierced the official's body.

Stopped the blood that was still flowing out.

He took out a few more silver needles and stuck them into several of his acupuncture points.
