The imperial physician's medical skills cannot be faked. Even though the examinee suddenly had an attack, he was able to quickly control the examinee's condition...

When the prince arrived carrying the little princess, the candidates regained consciousness.

The prince asked the examinees one by one about their conditions before and after the onset of the disease...

The head of the Examination Yuan and the officials of the Ministry of Rites couldn't help shrinking their necks after hearing this, feeling guilty...

The prince's actions seem to have made him suspicious of them...

"Since your illness started, has anyone ever asked you what happened?"

The prince asked the examinees calmly.

The chief examiner and the Ministry of Rites officials kept wiping the sweat from their foreheads.

They really didn't ask about it. This trick is so obvious, is there any need to ask about it?

All they asked about was the candidate's family background...

Several candidates who were ill answered truthfully. Except for the imperial physician who asked about the cause of the illness, no other adults asked...

Having the courage to answer truthfully is also a kind of courage.

After all, answering truthfully reflects that the examiners and officials of the Ministry of Rites are not careful enough and are negligent in their work...

If the prince had not punished these people, and the candidates had failed the imperial examination, they might not have been harassed and retaliated against by these people in future imperial examinations...

Even if they pass the imperial examination, if these people are still in office, it would be easy for them to make things difficult for a newcomer...

However, several candidates answered truthfully. Although they looked weak, their expressions did not fluctuate much and their attitudes were very firm.

The prince could not help but nod slightly and asked if they could take the exam normally...

The examinees were overjoyed, struggled to stand up, and kowtowed to the prince and the little princess...

The prince asked his guards to help the people up and send them to the examination seats one by one.

The head of the Examination Yuan and the officials of the Ministry of Rites stepped forward with embarrassed expressions to explain:

"Your Highness, we are worried that the candidates will be reluctant. If they insist on taking the exam, except for unexpected events..."

The prince smiled, his eyes seemed to see through people's hearts, "Oh? Do you think I need to teach you how to deal with such a small matter?"

The chief examiner and the Ministry of Rites officials were choked and speechless.

“Even if you are afraid to take responsibility and are worried that the candidates’ families will cause trouble, you can send someone to invite the candidates’ families to come before the exam and have the three parties sign and seal.

Even if the candidate's home is far away and cannot be invited, at least the candidate's opinion can be sought...

I studied so hard, I shouldn't have asked any questions, but you guys make such arbitrary judgments...

Otherwise, your words and actions are no different from being an accomplice to the person who framed you…”

Even though they knew the truth, when the crown prince pointed it out, the examiner and officials from the Ministry of Rites were still horrified and fell to their knees.

The prince held Jun Baozhu in his arms and walked towards the examination area without saying a word.

Jun Baozhu was in the prince's arms, and couldn't help complaining in her heart:

[Humph! This face is really annoying! ]

[If the prince didn't come, how would you treat these candidates? ]

[If you turn a blind eye, you will miss the exam time...]

[Why are you afraid of taking responsibility? You obviously have your own little tricks. If the mastermind succeeds, he will be grateful to you for helping him, right? ]

[In the beginning, most of you were poor students who entered the government. Look at what you are doing now, and what you look like?! ]

【snort! 】

The kneeling chief examiner and the official from the Ministry of Rites were shaking with fear and knocking their foreheads to the ground.

My heart was touched and I was really scared.

The prince didn't even turn his head, but touched Jun Baozhu's head in his arms as a sign of approval.

Based on the clues provided by Jun Baozhu and the identification of the candidates, the candidate suspected of poisoning was immediately taken into custody.

The candidates who poisoned others felt guilty, and some wanted to destroy the evidence on the spot...

But how could they be a match for the Prince's guards?

They were caught red-handed. One of the suspects had poison hidden in his teeth and collapsed on the spot due to lack of emergency treatment...

It is really shocking that someone could prepare to this extent to frame other candidates.

What is even more frustrating is that these suspects have been found to have evidence and have been confessed, but according to preliminary investigations...

Not only were they not good at writing, they were not even qualified to be shortlisted. In other words, the candidates who were poisoned and framed were not a direct threat to them at all...

If so, most of the candidates in the field will be their targets.

Based on the information revealed by the system, Jun Baozhu cursed the candidates who were involved in the behind-the-scenes conspiracy in her heart...

There is a high probability that these candidates were bribed and used as scapegoats to carry out the crime.

The mastermind behind this is the most advantageous competitor after the candidates who were poisoned...

Unfortunately, one of the scapegoats has already taken poison, and the lives of the remaining candidates and their families must have been threatened...

Otherwise, they wouldn't gamble their future and reputation and take such risks.

The prince instructed the guards to bring the suspected candidate down for interrogation...

The Fire Phoenix shook its feathers and made a sound at this moment.
