Chapter 623
Give me an honest answer, if there is any concealment or deception, you can think about the consequences. "

Gao Wendong's eyes were so frightened that tears flowed involuntarily. He tremblingly looked at the prime minister who was kneeling with his back facing him. Seeing that he had no intention of protecting himself, he was so frightened that he dared not speak. He was afraid of crying out loud. .

Ma Maocai's situation is not much better than his, but fortunately his voice is still there!In a low voice like a mosquito buzzing:

"Grass people.. are spent money"

Huangfu Jinyu was not used to their faults, and shouted in a stern voice:
"Why don't you hurry up and recruit them! Do you really want to be served by torture?"

"No, no, no." Ma Maocai shivered in fright, and shouted hoarsely:

"Caomin was bought with money. It cost 8 taels of silver to buy. Huh. The emperor spared the emperor's life. The grass people just wanted to buy a petty official. The grass people, the emperor, spare the life..." The incoherent and frantic pleading made all the ministers Even more contemptuous!
Ji Guanglian couldn't get used to this kind of people who speculate and get something for nothing, he reprimanded in a cold voice:
"Don't make your majesty go crazy! Just answer carefully when I ask you a question! I bought the test paper for 8 taels of silver, and which minister in the court bought it from?"

Seeing that Ma Mao just opened his mouth, the prince interrupted unwillingly and said:
"Master Ji's question is strange. Who did he buy the money from? How can Master Fu be sure to be a minister in the court! Could it be that he deliberately framed other ministers!

It is not known who bought or... picked up this kind of young people? !Mr. Ji, pay attention to your wording!snort! "

It can be said that Ji Guanglian has new and old grudges towards the prince, not to mention that he is not afraid of him because he is reasonable, so he retorted on the spot:

"His Royal Highness! Whether the subject has wronged him or not, we will know when he answers! Why is Your Royal Highness so angry? Even if you are anxious to seek justice for the scholars of the world, you should restrain your temper! What's more, the test paper is written by the emperor himself. , Only a few important ministers know! How can the outside world know the questions and answers of the test paper?!"

"You..." Huangfu didn't expect that this Ji Buren would dare to embarrass him in court. It's not enough for his son to die. Do you really want your grandson to die too?

Ji Guanglian ignored him and looked at Ma Maocai again, repeating:

"Don't tell the truth! Don't think that lying to the emperor will end well. If you really need to be tortured to serve you, you will not say it?"

"It's the prime minister! It's him who said that as long as Caomin gives him money, no one will know about it! Caomin really thought that there would be no problem, so he took out the money. The emperor didn't know that Caomin was a capital crime, Your Majesty! The emperor spares the emperor!" He said with tears and snot He started to bang his head.

Seeing that his name was finally spit out, Wang Angxiong's face turned ashen!
The atmosphere in the hall froze again, all eyes were on the man kneeling at the front, the man who had been famous in the court for most of his life!Can he still stand up today? !
Huangfu Xuanhong still didn't say a word, just looked at Wang Angxiong calmly, according to his decades of experience in dealing with the other party, the other party is not so easy to admit defeat!
really!

Wang Angxiong pursed his lips tightly, looked at Ma Maocai and others viciously, and said word by word:

"It's common for young people to talk indiscriminately when they are afraid of death, but they must also know that they will lose their heads if they say the wrong thing." Fu looked up at the emperor and bowed calmly, saying:
"Your Majesty! I will guarantee Xiangshang's head!." Wang Angxiong hesitated for a moment when he said Xiangshang's head, but for the current plan, this is the only way to make others believe him and make a way out!
Besides, it is impossible for others to have evidence. He believes in the person he sent out. After thinking about it, he continued: "I have never received anyone's money, let alone leaked a word of the test questions. You are wronged! You are wronged! You are wronged!" After speaking, he knelt down and touched his head to the ground.

All the adults were at a loss for a while, whether it was the prime minister's sophistry or he was really wronged!They were all guaranteed with the heads on the neck. Some ministers quietly rubbed their necks and hissed.
Huangfu Xuanhong looked at his prime minister's performance with cold eyes, and he even bet his head on the performance Hehe, now he can only put all his hopes on the second child, hoping that he will not let him down, otherwise he will try to win again It will be extremely difficult to defeat the Wang family.
Seeing that Huangfu Jinyu would not give up until the last moment, she almost laughed out of anger!If he is a loyal minister, will there be peace in the world?

"The prime minister is really loyal to the father, and he will not hesitate to risk his life to correct his innocence! Then the king will investigate the matter to see if it is Yin Mao or Mao!"

The prime minister's eyelids twitched when he heard the words, and he didn't respond when he looked at his nose, nose, nose, and heart, what a mistake to say!
Huangfu Jinyu sneered in his heart, and said impartially:

"Since the prime minister does not admit that he took money from Ma Maocai, how much money did you spend to buy the test papers, Gao Wendong?"

Gao Wendong was a little hesitant when he asked him, but Ma Maocai said it all, let's say it himself!
"I, Cao Min Cao Min, spent 10 taels of silver to the prime minister."

Huangfu Jinyu no longer asked the prime minister, but continued to his father:
"Father, since the Prime Minister said he was wronged, and the two of them identified the Prime Minister, one of them must be a liar. I request my father, Rong Erchen, to summon other witnesses!"

The prime minister's eyelids twitched, and now he seemed to have reached a dead end, and there was no way to escape, so it was up to the prince for the current plan.
Seeing his uncle winking at him for help, Huangfu Qianqian hurried forward and said without even caring about etiquette:
"Father! The second brother is just fooling around. Where is the Dangjin Luan Palace? Caishikou? My son objects to sending some irrelevant people here!"

Huangfu Xuanhong became more and more disappointed with the prince, and now he was so anxious that he didn't even bother to salute his father!Wang family?
snort!A foreign relative has grown up for so many years, doesn't his own crown prince only think about whether he will reduce his power if he doesn't talk to his father? !
"Prince! Now the matter involves the prime minister! It involves the entire imperial examination and the world's scholars! I have already said at the beginning that I will investigate this matter in court! Didn't the prince hear what I said?" Although the tone was peaceful, But the crown prince would not be so stupid as to think that his father was not angry with him!
Should I take a risk to help my uncle or keep myself first? Let's talk about it first!Only when you get better can you get your uncle out, right?
Want to know what to do in the end!He took a step back honestly and said:

"My son doesn't dare!"

The little eunuch watched the play very well, and almost forgot to summon witnesses to play!Seeing the chief eunuch An Houlu winking at himself, he hurriedly stepped forward and sang:
