The Splendid Medical Concubine: The Journey of a Concubine

Chapter 428 Extra 19 Complaint

Gu Jue took Shen Qianchen to sit down at a table next to him and ordered the waiter to serve tea, snacks and fruits.

While they were eating, they leisurely watched Lao Yu rolling on the ground screaming and screaming. His face was already bruised and purple, and his forehead was swollen.

There were seven or eight other drinkers in the lobby, all sitting there watching the fun, and no one went to report to the official.

Shen Qianchen slowly drank a cup of tea and asked the waiter to bring a pot of sherbet. At this time, there was a loud noise outside the tavern.

A young man in his twenties, wearing a sapphire blue robe with a crane and a ganoderma pattern, appeared menacingly outside the gate of Li's Tavern with a dozen big men. These dozen guards were all tall and fierce, and they looked fierce. There is an attitude that those who come are not good and those who are good will not come.

The bearded man who went to move the reinforcements was also there. He pointed at Gu Jue's nose and said in a mocking tone: "Second Young Master Wei, that's him!"

Second Young Master Wei sneered and ordered to his subordinates: "Get them for me!"

The four secret guards surrounding Lao Yu stopped and looked at Mr. Wei Er and his party.

A glimmer of hope flashed on Lao Yu's face when he finally breathed, and he glared at Gu Jue fiercely, feeling that he had to teach this kid who didn't know the heights of the world a lesson today.

Seeing that the matter was getting serious, the drinkers who were watching the excitement did not dare to stay. They did not even dare to go through the main entrance for fear of confronting Mr. Wei Er and his gang.

After a while, only Gu Jue and others were left in the lobby of the tavern, as well as Mr. Wei Er and his gang who were blocking the entrance. The shopkeeper and the waiter were so frightened that they hid behind the counter and sighed to themselves: It’s really a fight between gods, brats. Disaster.

Gu Jue smiled faintly and didn't bother to say a word. He just raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

The four secret guards dressed as bodyguards immediately understood and rushed towards Mr. Wei Ergong and his gang.

Young Master Wei and the bearded man were standing outside the tavern, but before they went in, the leading guard shouted angrily and swung his fist at one of the secret guards with narrow eyes, intending to knock out one of his teeth with one fist as a demonstration. .

However, just as he swung out his right fist, the narrow-eyed secret guard pinched his wrist. The opponent gently pulled and twisted it, and with a "click", everyone heard the sound of broken bones. .

The next moment, a burst of shrill screams almost lifted the roof, but the four secret guards remained unmoved and took action one after another, all aimed at the vital points of the dozen or so guards.

In less than half a cup of tea, the dozen or so guards brought by Mr. Wei fell to the ground, rolling around and wailing while holding their wounds.

Lao Yu was also dumbfounded. He sat on the ground and backed away repeatedly until his back hit the wall. He had no way to retreat, and his expression was in shock.

Young Master Wei also realized that the other party was not a good person. He turned around and wanted to escape, but was blocked by the narrow-eyed secret guard.

"Where do you want to go?" the secret guard said with a smile.

The second Young Master Wei's face was extremely ugly, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead. He took one step back and almost tripped over the threshold.

"Chang Ling," Gu Jue took a sip of sherbet, twirled the white porcelain cup between his fingers, and said lightly, "send them to Jingzhao Mansion and sue them for selling fake questions."

The secret guard known as Changling responded with his fists clasped.

Lao Yu: "!!"

Second Young Master Wei: "!!"

Bearded man: "!!"

This group of people couldn't believe their ears, they were all speechless, almost wondering if the young man in front of them was crazy.

That's right, his brain must be broken. Candidates who buy questions will be disqualified from the exam. Not only will they not pass the exam this year, they will never even think about taking the imperial examination in this life!

Lao Yu bit the tip of his tongue, and the pain told him that this was not a dream.

He couldn't help but express what everyone was thinking: "Yin Jiuxia, are you crazy?!"

When Shen Qianchen heard this, he laughed out loud. Gu Jue has always been "crazy", otherwise why would he have taken the provincial examination at the age of fourteen, joined the army at the age of fifteen, and now he has ascended to the throne of emperor!

He always followed his own will, and the things he did were never based on ordinary people's consciousness.

The secret guard Chang Ling took two steps forward, kicked a guard on the ground hard, and threatened: "Don't get up yet!"

The dozen or so guards got up from the ground in embarrassment. Each one of them was decorated with colors, and their faces were all colorful.

At this moment, Mr. Wei almost hated Lao Yu, and he didn't know how on earth this idiot found such a tough guy as a buyer.

But now it was useless to beat Lao Yu. Mr. Wei could only admit his coward and said with a polite smile: "Mr. Yin, we did not sell fake questions. It's just that the Ministry of Rites suddenly changed the exam questions. It should be for officials." I mean home, things happened too suddenly..."

"So, are the test questions you sold me before true?" Gu Jue interrupted him.

Second Young Master Wei quickly nodded in agreement.

Lao Yu felt a little weird. He had explained to this person named Yin before about changing the test questions, but the other person just didn't accept the reason. Why did it seem to be loosening up now? The change in attitude was too sudden.

Gu Jue said to Jingfeng, "Write it down. He recognized it himself."

"Take everyone to Jingzhao Mansion immediately!"

"How dare you!" Mr. Wei's eyes widened in disbelief and he shouted to Gu Jue, "Do you know who I am?! My father is the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. You have offended me today. Don't even think about it. Live a good life and you will regret it.”

Gu Jue didn't bother to talk nonsense with this kind of person. This Wei Er was not qualified!

He gave the order and several carriages were prepared outside the tavern. Lao Yu, Mr. Wei and the people he brought were all escorted onto the carriages.

The group of people went straight to Jingzhao Mansion, leaving only a mess in the lobby of the tavern. The shopkeeper and the waiter looked at each other, feeling that what just happened was more exciting than the playbook.

Shen Qianchen was laughing all the time. She was laughing when she came out of Li's Tavern. She was also laughing after she got on the carriage with Gu Jue. When the carriage arrived at Jingzhao Mansion and she was helped out of the carriage by Gu Jue, she was still laughing.

The shallow pear dimples dotted her delicate little face, adding a touch of intelligence and beauty to her.

It’s so interesting! She covered her mouth while watching Gu Jue continue to laugh, enjoying herself.

The one who went to sound the drum of grievance was Jingfeng.

As soon as the grievance drum sounded, many passers-by immediately gathered outside the gate of Jingzhao Mansion and gathered curiously, wanting to see what was going on.

The response from the Jingzhao Mansion was also very fast. The drums of injustice were only beaten three or four times, and several government officials took Gu Jue, Wei Ergong and the rest to the court.

The atmosphere in the courtroom was always majestic and solemn, making people feel solemn.

At this moment, Jingzhao Yin was not here, and it was Zhang Huahuan, the general judge of Jingzhao Mansion, who appeared in the high hall.

Zhang Huahuan glanced around the courtroom, intending to ask why the visitor beat the drum to sound far away, but before he could say anything, he saw a familiar figure among the people in the hall, and the hall froze in mid-air.

"Second Young Master Wei!"

Zhang Huahuan recognized that Wei Ergong was the son of Wei Shangshu and blurted out in surprise.

The government officials at the scene were also very discerning, knowing that this matter involved noble people, but this was Jingzhao Mansion, and the case could not be closed, so the team leader ordered a row of government officials to stand at the gate, forming an airtight wall. The human wall blocked the curious eyes of the people outside.

The squad leader Fu'er said a few words to Zhang Huahuan. Only then did Zhang Huahuan know who the accuser was and looked at Gu Jue again.

Seeing Gu Jue's extraordinary demeanor and guessing that he had a great reputation, Zhang Huahuan did not let him kneel down. After clearing his throat, he pretended to ask: "Who are you and why do you beat the drum to complain?"

Gu Jue smiled and said: "Bingzhou Yin Jiuxia sued Wei Jingze, the second son of the Minister of Civil Affairs, for selling examination questions!"

"..." When Zhang Huahuan heard this, his jaw almost dropped. He never expected that this would be a case involving test fraud. His mind was spinning very fast. If Mr. Wei really sells exam questions, does Wei Jing know where his exam questions come from? !

Just thinking about it made Zhang Huahuan feel like his head was as big as a bucket.

If this case were to be tried seriously, the implications would be huge. I don’t know how many people would be beheaded!

Zhang Huahuan immediately weighed the pros and cons in his heart, sounded the alarm, and sternly scolded: "You are so bold, Yin Jiuxia, how dare you wrongly accuse the Second Young Master Wei!"

Gu Jue raised his eyebrows: "You didn't ask me the whole story, and you didn't ask if there was any certified physical evidence, so you just said that I wronged him. What's the point?!"

"Then what evidence do you have to prove that Mr. Wei sold you the exam questions?" Zhang Huahuan asked with a sneer.

Even if Zhang Huahuan hasn't tried yet, he can guess that as the second master of Wei, it is impossible to sell the test questions directly. The person selling the questions must be his subordinates. Now they are just pulling out the carrots and bringing out the mud. Yin Jiuxia doesn't know why. The ground was traced to Mr. Wei Er!

Mr. Wei, who was standing aside, showed a confident smile.

Before going to Jingzhao Mansion, he was still a little panicked, but now he calmed down again when he saw Zhang Huahuan defending him in this way. Yes, since ancient times, officials have protected each other. Even if the Minister of the Ministry of Justice came to try the case in person today, Lao Yu would not dare to identify him as the mastermind in public, and no one could punish him!

Second Master Wei gently stroked his sleeves and said to Gu Jue in a voice that only a few people around him could hear: "Brother, those who know the current affairs are heroes. If you continue to make trouble, it will not do you any good!"

"You should be smarter now and admit your mistake to me. I will give you a copy of Enke's exam paper for next year. It will be good for you and me!"

"If you continue to make trouble, I will sue you for false accusations, and what awaits you will be jail time!"

Second Young Master Wei's voice was cold, and he did not hide the threat in his words.

After a pause, he added: "Don't forget, you also bought the test papers. If you really make a fuss, you won't have to take the imperial examination again in your life! Think it over for yourself, and don't let yourself regret it for the rest of your life based on your temporary motivation." !”

Gu Jue didn't say anything, but Jingfeng beside Gu Jue shouted at the top of his voice: "You sold fake exam papers to my young master, and now you want to threaten us, what's the law of heaven!"

Jingfeng's voice was very loud and could be heard clearly from the court. Even the people outside heard it and there was an uproar and discussions:

"I just heard that someone was selling exam papers? Did I hear that right?"

"You heard it right! You heard it right! That's exactly what you said!"

"Didn't the first trial just end today? Is there a case of fraud?"

“…”

The people outside were talking very lively.

So more people heard the news and flocked to the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, especially the literati students who heard the news. Because they heard about the case of examination fraud here, they swarmed in and looked excited.

Outside Jingzhao Mansion, onlookers gathered on three levels inside and three outside, a sea of ​​people.

Mr. Wei's face suddenly darkened, and his original calmness no longer existed.

He felt like he was going crazy, and secretly cursed Lao Yu again for selling the paper to such a tough guy. Does this Yin Jiuxia want to die together? !

"Yin Jiuxia!" Young Master Wei gritted his teeth and took a step closer to Gu Jue. He wanted to say that if you don't have a toast, you will have to drink a fine wine. He thought that if the other party didn't understand the situation again, he would let Zhang Tongpuan take him down.

He didn't believe that he couldn't handle a mere outsider!

However, as soon as he took a step, Jingfeng took action, or in other words, kicked out, and kicked Mr. Wei Er **** the shin bone.

Jingfeng had followed Gu Jue for many years and was a martial artist, but the second young master Wei was just a young master with no power to restrain a chicken. He had no time to dodge and screamed like a pig being killed.

Seeing this, Zhang Huahuan, who was above him, was also angry. He rang the exclamation wood again and angrily shouted: "How dare you, this is a court, and you dare to make noise in the court!"

"Come here, let me capture them all!"

Zhang Huahuan felt that he was simply dozing off, so someone handed him a pillow. Now he could naturally take down Yin Jiuxia and his gang, and then send someone to contact Wei Shangshu.

But as soon as he finished speaking, another figure wearing a black gauze hat and embroidered peacock scarlet robe appeared outside the lobby. It was a man in his forties with a goatee.

"Presumptuous!" the visitor shouted in shock.

Zhang Huahuan, who was sitting in the hall, thought the other party was talking about Gu Jue, and hurriedly said: "Master Hong, the reason for this case..."

However, before Zhang Huahuan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jing Zhaoyin:

"Zhang Huahuan, you've had enough!"

Jing Zhaoyin quickly crossed the threshold and entered the court, carrying his robe.

Because he was a little tired today and had just taken a nap in the back hall, he was unable to come as soon as the drum of injustice sounded. At this moment, he was so regretful that his intestines were turning green. He regretted that he should not have let Zhang Huahuan, the general judge, come first. The case is pending.

But who would have thought that the mighty emperor would appear in the court of Jingzhao Mansion in this way!

Jing Zhaoyin felt that he wouldn't even dare to write a script like this.

While he was thinking, he quickly walked up to Gu Jue, bowed his head and bowed politely: "See you, Your Majesty!"

Jing Zhaoyin is a third-grade civil servant and is qualified to attend the morning court. Of course he recognizes Gu Jue.

“…”

“…”

“…”

For a moment, time around him seemed to have stopped.

Everyone, including Zhang Huahuan, Second Master Wei, and Lao Yu, were dumbfounded and couldn't believe their ears. Some even pinched themselves secretly.

Zhang Huahuan stammered: "He...isn't he Yin Jiuxia?"

When the words "Yin Jiuxia" came out of his mouth, Zhang Huahuan suddenly realized that the queen mother of the current dynasty was named Yin. Now Gu Jue is the ninth among the brothers, and Gu Jue's name seems to be Jiuxia. Gu Jue's status was so noble that even before he ascended the throne, few people were qualified to call him by his name, so most people were not impressed by his name.

The young man in front of me turned out to be the new emperor Gu Jue!

Zhang Huahuan felt as if all his strength had been taken away from him, he was weak and his face was ashen.

He staggered to his feet, stumbled down from the hall, and knelt down in front of Gu Jue with a plop. He simply didn't dare to think about what he had just said to the new emperor.

"..." Young Master Wei was also dumbfounded and still can't believe this fact until now.

The person in front of me who calls himself "Yin Jiuxia" is actually the current Emperor of Qi? !

How is this possible!

However, it is absolutely impossible for Jing Zhaoyin to admit his mistake even to the emperor.

Young Master Wei's face turned pale to the naked eye.

Gu Jue stroked his sleeves gracefully, nodded and said, "I won't have to take the imperial examination in my whole life? That's right, then I won't take the exam."

With that said, he turned to Shen Qianchen and said, "Your royal wife is gone."

Shen Qianchen pursed his lips and smiled, jokingly saying: "Then think carefully about how you can compensate me!"

Gu Jue nodded cooperatively.

"..." Young Master Wei seemed to be mute and couldn't utter a single word. His back was soaked with cold sweat, and there was only one voice left whirling in his head: It's over, it's all over!
