Chapter 857 Women disguised as men
Xiao Xi's face darkened, he looked at the Hanlin scholar and said, "You think so too?"

The Hanlin scholar looked at the two articles in his hand, and thought that the writing was more promising, but in fact they were both good. It was really embarrassing for him to choose the first and the second.

He sighed and said: "Chen Xin's policy theory and insights are more realistic and not based on fantasy. This should be Chen Xin first."

Xiao Xi's face was completely gloomy, and he strode forward and snatched Chen Xin's test paper and read it carefully. He wanted to see how Chen Xin was better than him, and he couldn't compare to him once or twice.

Everyone was amazed when they saw Xiao Xi's actions, and they didn't know why he had such a big reaction.

Shi Zheng now understood that Xiao Xi wrote this paper for him, and now that everyone praised Chen Xin, it naturally made him feel ashamed.

Shi Zheng was afraid that Master Xiao Xi's temper would flare up, so he poked out the twists and turns, and immediately ran forward and said: "It's because I don't have enough talent. If I lose this time, I will bother you."

Xiao Xi listened to Shi Zheng saying that he was not capable enough, and was about to scold him back. He had always thought highly of himself, and he had never met an opponent before Chen Xin. no.

But Shi Zheng whispered: "Young Master Xiao, you don't want others to know what you have done, do you?"

Xiao Xi frowned. He didn't intend to help Shi Zheng cover up the fraud, but he was not convinced that someone said that Chen Xin should be at the top of the list, so he deliberately handed in his own strategy to compete. He thought he could win, but he didn't. Thinking that he has lost now, if people find out that he is secretly compared with Chen Xin, the Xiao family's face will not be needed.

He snorted coldly and threw Chen Xin's policy question to Shi Zheng, and was about to leave, but Li Xiruo stood in front of him, pointed at the official and said to the servant of the Ministry of Rites: "My lord, I just saw that man sneaking around, It seems to be hiding something in the sleeve, I wonder if it is cheating for others."

The official looked at Xiao Xi unconsciously, then knelt down to complain, the Minister of Rites noticed his eyes, and asked the people around him to search him.

Before the official had time to deal with the stolen goods, he was caught by someone. The Minister of Rituals looked at the policy question that was submitted, and it was nonsense, which was far from Chen Xin's. He slapped the wooden table angrily: "Presumptuous, at this time There are still people who cheat, and they really don’t know how to repent.”

Shi Zheng looked at Xiao Xi in a panic, hoping that he could say something to save him, but Xiao Xi gave him a disgusted look. He looked down on Shi Zheng's behavior at all. If he didn't hate Chen Xin, he would not have chosen Join forces with him.

The Minister of Rites opened the paper and looked at Shi Zheng: "Who wrote your policy question for you, tell me!"

Shi Zheng pulled Xiao Xi's sleeve in fear: "Young Master Xiao, you asked me to do all of this, you have to explain it to these adults."

Everyone was in an uproar, Xiao Xi threw Shi Zheng away, looked at the Gongsheng students in the courtyard looking at him, and immediately kicked Shi Zheng: "I don't know you at all, if you want to escape the guilt, you should find a decent one." reason."

The servant of the Ministry of Rites pointed to the official: "Who asked you to change the paper?"

Seeing that the man himself was in danger, how could he hide it for Xiao Xi: "It is Mr. Xiao, he is not convinced by Chen Xin, so he asked me to submit his proposal secretly, just to compete with Chen Xin."

Ye Chongling frowned when he heard that, he had heard that Xiao Xi was proud of his talents, but he did not expect his temper to be so capricious.

Liu Yusheng listened and sneered: "Since Mr. Xiao wants to compete, he should follow the path of integrity. What are you doing in such a sneaky way, don't be afraid that you won't be ashamed if you lose."

Xiao Xi turned around and looked at Liu Yusheng with a gloomy expression. The other Gongsheng students couldn't help but snicker. Xiao Xi felt quite humiliated, so he had to divert the trouble, pointing to Shi Zheng on the ground and saying, "Your Excellency, there is no need to investigate. Shi Zheng, he teamed up with two scribes to give and receive privately, in an attempt to deceive the Holy Majesty and all the adults, and even the fire in the Gongyuan was related to them."

Shi Zheng was shocked, he didn't expect Xiao Xi not to help him out of the siege, but he even revealed everything. He was about to defend himself, but the servant of the Ministry of Rites didn't have such patience: "Come here, take Shi Take it for me."

Seeing that Shi Zheng was taken down, Chen Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief. The successive frauds were all related to him, and he was wondering if it was because he committed the Tai Sui. Fortunately, everything was finally settled. up.

Seeing Chen Xin's grievance, the Minister of Rites stepped forward to congratulate him and said, "I will tell His Majesty about this, and Chen Gongsheng can prepare for the imperial examination with peace of mind."

Chen Xin smiled: "My lord, please worry about it."

The servant of the Ministry of Rites led the people down, and the other Gongsheng who were around dispersed after watching the commotion, but Xiao Xi, who should hide his face and run away, and felt ashamed of it, stood where he was, showing no sign of leaving.

The three of Chen Xin and the others ignored him, and just walked towards the door. Seeing that he was being ignored, Xiao Xi hurriedly stopped him, and said to Chen Dao with an arrogant expression, "Even if you win me by chance this time, I won't lose you in the palace examination." I will definitely win back this tone and become the champion.”

Chen Xin just forced a smile: "Then take the lead in congratulating Young Master Xiao."

Xiao Xi knew that Shi Zheng was the one who changed his papers, but he still chose to help him. Based on this alone, he couldn't get along with Xiao Xi in harmony.

Feeling Chen Xin's contempt, Xiao Xi felt unhappy, and put down his harsh words: "The number one position will always belong to me."

He walked out with his servants, and Liu Yusheng dismissed him from behind and said, "If he didn't have the father of the founding county magistrate, how could he be so proud? If the Minister of Rites hadn't looked at his family background just now, he would be so proud." If he makes such a fuss, no matter what, he has to hit some boards first."

Chen Xin smiled coldly: "Most of the children of these aristocratic families are like this, but people who are as talented as Xiao Xi and have a family background are rare, so his temper is also tolerated by the world."

Chen Xin has long been used to it, complaining less and doing more practical things. Only when he becomes a master can he have the opportunity to step on them.

In the evening, Lin Shang came after hearing the news and brought two top-quality flower carvings to Chen Dao: "Congratulations, brother Chen, for seeing the sun through the clouds, this is a celebration."

He poured the wine into several cups and said to Chen Dao: I heard that the emperor is looking for someone to re-evaluate the rankings, but brother Chen is expected to be on the top of the list, become the member of the club, and squeeze out Xiao Xi. "

Lin Shang laughed loudly as he said: "I feel refreshed when I think about it. That kid is used to being arrogant and thinks that no one can match his talent and learning. He has met his opponent. And he lost to Brother Chen twice, waiting for the emperor to let him go." Brother Chen has become the top member of the list, that kid must be jumping in anger at the house."

Chen Xin just smiled. Seeing Lin Shang handing the wine to Li Xiruo and smiling at Li Xiruo, he felt a little uncomfortable, and asked Lin Shangdao: "What happened to Shi Zheng? Xiao Xi said that the Gongyuan was on fire. It's also related to him, but I don't think Shi Zheng's family background can raise such courage."

"Speaking of this, it's strange. Shi Zheng didn't know much about the fire in the Gongyuan, he only knew that there was someone else. However, when the Ministry of Punishment interrogated the two scribes, the clerk insisted that the fire in the Gongyuan was their own fault. But the capital crime of beheading, they are all willing to take it on themselves, which is enough to prove the power of the people behind it."

Lin Shang looked at Chen Xin, secretly reminding him that many people behind him were watching his every move.

Chen Xin swallowed the wine. There were only two or three people who were powerful and had enemies with him. Even if the clerks didn’t mention it, he could guess it. He was just surprised at their boldness. , dare to do anything.

Lin Shang drank too much wine, and his mind began to lose consciousness. He looked at Li Xiruo and said, "Miss Li, this capital city is far away, why on earth did you come here with Chen Xin?"

Li Xiruo frowned: "I didn't follow, I just met by chance."

Chen Xin's heart skipped a beat, but then slowly sank.

Fu Wanying, who was staying by the side all the time, listened to Lin Shang's address, but Li Xiruo's acquiescence was like being struck by lightning. She looked at Li Xiruo with trembling lips: "Girl?"

Ever since Li Xiruo helped her in that court case, she secretly promised Li Xiruo. She knew that Li Xiruo was just a hunter, with no money and no future, but after so many years, she She was the first person who didn't see anything strange in her eyes when she looked at her. She thought that by staying by her side, she would find a chance to marry her, but who knew that she was actually a daughter.

Fu Wanying lost her bowl and chopsticks, she thought about the worst situation, but she never expected that Li Xiruo would disguise herself as a man, and the shame of being cheated all over Fu Wanying's body in an instant. His various courtesies turned out to be to a woman, and he couldn't help feeling ashamed and angry.

Her deliberate devotion on the boat, and her flattery later on, maybe Li Xiruo laughed at her in her heart, but she still pretended to be a man, pretending to be at ease.

Only then did Fu Wanying understand why Chen Xin liked Li Xiruo. She always thought that the two of them being together was a joke, but now it seemed that she was the joke.

Liu Yusheng sat beside her, watched her wooden chopsticks fall to the ground and bent over to pick them up for her, but seeing her staring at Li Xiruo with red eyes, Liu Yusheng only reacted that Li Xiruo was calm and breezy just now. It's so easy to admit that she is a daughter, but in Fu Wanying's eyes, she has always been a handsome man.

He put the wooden chopsticks on the table, and whispered to Fu Wanying: "We didn't tell you before, and we didn't find a suitable opportunity. I thought you would find out by yourself after a long time, but who knows that it has been delayed until now."

If Li Xiruo didn't say anything, Chen Xin would be happy to watch her men's clothes to avoid some people's obsessed eyes, and it would be even more difficult for him to take the initiative to tell others Li Xiruo's identity, but he didn't expect that Fu Wanying consciously gave her heart in it, but now she is born to be played feeling.

She couldn't sit on the table any longer, she got up and went back to the room, Liu Yusheng didn't know how to comfort her, but Chen Xin and the other three didn't notice this matter, they just thought it was Fu Wanying who was tired and went to rest.
