The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 449 Please arrest someone
"Don't! Don't make troubles on this cusp!" Zhu Pang wondered if Gu Chengyu would spend all his family wealth and bribe those officials, right?

Gu Chengyu put down his pen, and gave him an annoyed look, this guy had already forgotten the purpose of his visit.

"Is that why you came to ask?" After washing his hands in the copper basin, he went back to the desk and looked at the calligraphy he had practiced early in the morning.

I saw that the font was a little more scattered than before, but it was a little more sharp.It seems that he is not exempt, and his mind is easily influenced. If he wants to be honored or humiliated, he still needs to hone it.

"Let me tell you, are you still in the mood to practice calligraphy at this moment?" Zhu Pang was so impressed with Gu Chengyu that his sword was hanging above his head, but he was not in a hurry.

"It's useless to be anxious. Can you and I control this matter? Tell me! What news are you here this time?"

Gu Chengyu was very grateful for Zhu Pang's attention to this matter. Didn't Zhu Pang inquire about these things because of him?In the past, he would not care about these.

Zhu Pang frowned, with a sad face, "How can there be any news? Dali Temple hasn't found anything yet, and the evidence has already been checked. My father said, Master Wan and the others may not escape this time." Robbery, the evidence is very sufficient, even the places where the bandits went, and the gold and silver intercepted every time are written in detail."

Gu Chengyu was a little surprised. Could it be that the eldest prince kicked his own account book over?Otherwise why so detailed?Sometimes the real and the fake are blended together to make people believe it is true. Wherever it is, most of it may be true.

However, these are a headache for Hu Maoshen, who only cares about the imperial examination fraud case.

"Is there any progress in the trial of fraud?" Gu Chengyu asked casually, knowing that Zhu Pang's father could not say everything in the house.

"I didn't hear what my father said, only that I haven't confessed yet. However, my father said, and within two or three days, I'm afraid there will be a result. Those two can't survive for so long, after all, they are old."

Gu Chengyu nodded. He had already given most of the evidence to Hu Maoshen, and the rest only needed to be followed.

If he hasn't checked it out in two days, it will be too useless, and he will not be able to hold the position of Zuo Fudu Censor, and he will not be valued by the emperor.

Kuang Zhaoying went to the imperial study room before going to court. He planned to put the top [-] candidates in the prison and search the candidates' houses.However, he considered that some of them were descendants of aristocratic families, so he could not mention them at the court meeting, otherwise it would cause public outrage.

There are quite a few descendants of aristocratic families participating in the examination, as well as many descendants of officials and eunuchs, some of whom are direct descendants.If those colleagues knew that he proposed it, they might have to peel his skin.

In fact, some candidates are arrested and just go through the motions, and they will release them after staying for two hours.Some even get rid of suspicion during the search and inspection, which depends on the background of the candidates.

No matter how much Kuang Zhaoying wanted to achieve political achievements, it was impossible for him to offend those aristocratic families.Besides, the sons of the aristocratic family have strict teachings and will never cheat.Because once discovered, the family will be affected, and the family does not allow them to do so.

"Your Majesty! Lord Kuang, please see me!" De'an put on the bright yellow dragon robe for the emperor, and was about to tie the robe, when the voice of the eunuch on duty came from outside.

The emperor frowned, the morning court is about to come, what can't be said at the court meeting?I didn't want to miss it, but after thinking about it, I changed my mind again. Could it be that there have been new developments in the fraud case and bandit case?
"Xuan!" De'an hurriedly arranged the clothes for the emperor, and then stood aside respectfully.

"Minister Kuang Zhaoying respectfully invites the emperor to be safe!" Kuang Zhaoying fell to the ground as soon as he entered the imperial study.

"Come on! But the case has progressed?" The emperor took a sip of tea and refreshed himself.Recently, the spirit has become worse and worse, and the last medicine pill failed again, but this time, with the money, the medicinal materials can be gathered together.

Thinking of this, his mood immediately improved a little, and he became more sympathetic to Kuang Zhaoying who came to disturb him early in the morning.

"Your Majesty! Wan Xuenian and Song Shujing refused to plead guilty, and I think I should start from other places. Since they don't admit to fraud, the person who bribed must be a candidate for this exam."

As Kuang Zhaoying said, he glanced at the emperor's reaction from the corner of his eye, and seeing the emperor nodded, he went on to say: "But I don't know the year of the monkey if they want to identify them. So I asked the emperor to rank the top one in this test." Hundreds of candidates will be held in the prison first, and will be released after the inspection by the officials, and please grant the emperor's permission!"

When the emperor heard this, he immediately frowned, "One hundred? No way! These are all my disciples, and I can't let them feel cold."

Although he is the emperor, he still has to consider the intricate family relationship in the capital.There are many children from aristocratic families who participated in this test. If he is caught in a prison, then his Hall of Supreme Harmony will be blown up by these ministers.

The officials will not let him go, even he dares to participate in those old stubborn.

Kuang Zhaoying scolded his mother in his heart, he knew the emperor was an old fox.The emperor said it nicely, but he was actually afraid of those aristocratic families making trouble?
However, I also know that there are too many people, and it is impossible for the emperor to agree.He thought about it, since he got the test questions, or cheated in the test room, the ranking must be in the front.

"If your majesty thinks one hundred is too many, then grab the top twenty. Maybe the people who bribed are among these people, and there must be a lot of them! The other humble ministers will check slowly. As long as you find a few, you are not afraid of two people." My lord does not confess."

If they found a few, it would be useless for Wan Xuenian and the others to carry them to their death. The rest is not afraid that they will not recruit them, it's just to make those people happy for a few more days!
The emperor hesitated for a while, "De'an, bring me the list of rankings in this test."

"Yes! The slave will go now." The list has already been submitted, but the emperor did not need to look at the test results in previous years.Only this time the situation is special, so the emperor will come to the list yesterday.

I was busy with government affairs yesterday, so I haven't had time to read it yet.The emperor took the list and read it from top to bottom.

The No.1 member's name is Gu Chengyu, and Min Feng is the second.Um?The emperor looked intently, and only one of the top five was a son of an aristocratic family.

The name of No.1 is still familiar, but looking at the candidate's birthplace and resume, is it him?
"Is Gu Chengyu the one who assisted Jiang Shilang in developing the experimental field back then?" Seeing his hometown, the emperor finally knew why the name was so familiar.

"Back to the emperor, it is this person." De'an hurriedly stepped forward to reply.

Although he is illiterate, he has a good memory!Gu Chengyu's name, a few years ago, the emperor mentioned it twice, and he deeply remembered it.If De'an had no merits, he would not be able to take the position of chief executive.

The emperor didn't like the eunuchs around him to be literate, lest the eunuchs peek at the memorial and interfere in the government affairs.
