Revenge of Rebirth: Intrigue

Chapter 589 The Right Person

Qi Qin sighed and said: "Actually, Du Wen doesn't like reading at all, and he hates literati very much. He didn't make trouble with literati in the town before, but everyone couldn't resist. I know why he suddenly wants to take the imperial examination."

At this time, the food was served, and the conversation was about the same, Mu Huaxian let Qi Qin relax and eat, and talk about other things after dinner.

Tang Yi looked sideways at Mu Huaxian with dissatisfaction.

Mu Huaxian smiled, put the vegetables into his bowl, and said softly, "My lord, please eat."

Tang Yi just laughed and ate with satisfaction.

Mu Huaxian shook his head amusedly, both helpless and happy at his occasional jealousy.

Qi Qin glanced at the two of them, didn't swallow a mouthful of food, and coughed from choking.

He turned around to finish coughing, and then said: "This should be Prince Liang, right? I heard that there are currently two princes in Daliang, namely Prince Jing and Prince Liang, and Prince Liang has an engagement with the princess."

Mu Huaxian glanced at Tang Yi, and said with a smile: "What you've heard, it's too troublesome to distinguish between the two of them. It's better to say that the most outstanding person in the capital is Prince Liang."

Tang Yi looked at her sideways, raised his hand and patted her head lovingly, his heart was as sweet as eating honey.

Qi Qin looked at the two people as if there was no one else around, and felt that the delicious food on the table in front of him had turned into unpalatable food, and wished he could finish eating immediately and leave quickly.

After eating, Mu Huaxian continued to ask him some things about himself.

It turned out that Qi Qin had loved poetry and books since he was a child, and he was a famous talent among them.It's just that his family was poor and he had only one blind mother, so he had to make a living by selling calligraphy and painting and helping others write, while saving money to go to Beijing for the exam.

Later, when Du Wen asked him to help answer the questions, he gave him a relatively generous reward, so that he had enough money to settle his mother and take the exam.

During the conversation, Mu Huaxian found out that he is an upright person who hates evil like a vengeful.

His mother was ordered to goug out his eyes by a stupid official many years ago, and there were many twists and turns. In short, he decided since he was a child that he must gain fame and become a good official who eliminates harm for the people.

Isn't this kind of character and one of the best literary talents what Mu Huaxian and Tang Yi are looking for?

As long as he can perform well in the palace examination, even if he can't enter the top three, it is enough to be a good official.

As for Du Wen's bribery of the examiner, after discussion, they decided to keep calm for the time being, and after the exam was over, Tang Yi would present Du Wen's rural exam paper to the emperor, and let Qi Qin personally recite it in front of the emperor. content to serve as evidence.

At that time, I am afraid that many people will be involved.

Mu Huaxian gave Qi Qin some money, but he felt humiliated. She said to him: "The money is not given to you for free. After you finish the exam, you must draw a good picture for me."

Qi Qin naturally understood what she meant, and was almost moved to tears.

Before leaving, Mu Huaxian specifically reminded him that he must live in a better inn, so that Du Wen would not dare to make trouble with him.

Soon, the day of the test will come.

The fact that Tang Yi was the chief examiner of the examination was not disclosed in advance.This is also a request made by Tang Yi. In this way, some people can be prevented from coming to offer bribes, and the suspicion of accepting bribes can also be avoided.
