Chapter 99: Cheating in the Boudoir



Feng Wu covered himself tightly and followed Mu Zimin to the mountain behind the military camp.

After listening to Mu Zimin's advice, the wounded soldiers also began to build sheds.

Because it was an experiment, only three acres of land were planted.

There are enough people, so it's not too busy for long.

It was built in half a day.

And here at the General's Mansion.

"This Lingxuan is really smart and brave. She actually risked her life to block the poisonous arrow for the prince. It's really her good fortune." After hearing about Chu Lingxuan's story, General Mu stroked his chin and said.

[That must be her good fortune. If you think about it from another angle, the prince is destined to be a nobody. Even if Chu Lingxuan is a soul from another world, even if she has 5,000 years of history and culture, it is useless. She can't help but become a useless person.]

[If Chu Lingxuan followed Brother Mo Ran, the consequences would be disastrous...]

[Chu Lingxuan bet on the wrong treasure, which is a happy event for our Mu family. It proves that even God is helping our Mu family. ]

After hearing Mu Yan's thoughts, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Chu Lingxuan was sent away, the threat to their Mu family would be reduced.

The only way now is to worship Yun Mo Ran as a god, and things will get better and better for the Mu family in the future.

Luo Shi also nodded to Chu Lingxuan's fate and said, "Before I left, I also let Chu Lingxuan stay in the prince's residence. I hope the prince will treat her well and bring Lingxuan back to the capital after he sets off for the capital."

"After all, the prince promised to take her as a concubine, and he also kissed Lingxuan. If the prince is irresponsible, it would be really unfair to Lingxuan."

Mu Zishi said in a comforting tone, "If the prince says he wants to take a concubine, then Chu Lingxuan, the prince's concubine, will not be able to escape."

"Lingxuan is truly an orphan. Given her current background, marrying the prince as a concubine is indeed a good destination for her." Luo said.

"I heard from the eldest prince that His Majesty wants to appoint one of the top three candidates in the imperial examination as his consort."

General Mu said, looking at Mu Zishi, "Although marrying a prince consort feels a bit like currying favor with the powerful, but no matter what, if he is the top scorer in the imperial examination, not only will his career be bright, but his lifelong affairs will also be solved."

What made General Mu angry was that the Lantern Festival was clearly a good opportunity.

But this young and inexperienced Mu Zishi did not seize the opportunity.

If not, there would be no chance of winning when choosing a prince consort.

These two people have never met each other, how can this idiot Mu Zishi win?

"Dad, I've asked the teacher for my eldest brother. Those participating in the Spring Boudoir this year are all talented young men, and each of them is as handsome as Pan An." Mu Zisheng said.

Mu Zishi: “…” No one will think you are dumb if you don’t speak.

"Come on, you're such a fool, you're not even handsome, who would like you?" General Mu was worried, "If you pass the exam, you should dress nicely and be more eye-catching that day."

[In the Spring Boudoir Examination, if the prince's men had not cheated, then my eldest brother would have been the top scorer.]

General Mu: The prince's men? Fraud?

This cheating is a big deal!

And it also concerns his son's future!

[The biggest traitor in the boudoir fraud is the prime minister's son, who is also the crown prince's confidant. The crown prince protected the top three and third place winners in the boudoir fraud... These three were all arranged by the crown prince.]

General Mu: If my daughter hadn’t told me, I really wouldn’t have known that the prince was making such a fuss behind my back!

[Dad, you really don't like your own son at all. My eldest brother is as handsome as Pan An. He is just bookish, not stupid. My eldest sister-in-law likes my eldest brother's fresh temperament, okay? ]

General Mu heard this and glanced at Mu Zishi.

Mu Zishi held the teacup and drank tea leisurely.

After his daughter said this, the son indeed looked much more pleasing to the eye.

But how to deal with the cheating?

If he didn't intervene, his son would definitely not be able to make it into the top three.

[I heard that the eldest prince was involved in setting the questions for this spring exam. If the eldest prince were to change the rules of the spring exam, this cheating could definitely be avoided.]

General Mu’s eyes lit up!

Then find the eldest prince!

[This year's Spring Boudoir Examination happened to be held in the Border Examination Hall. I remember there was a place that could prevent whispering and looking around. The seats were all equipped with toilets, so that candidates could not leave their seats and could not cheat by getting answers outside.]

[And it is also required that the person who sets the questions should be kept in seclusion, and not allowed to come out to see anyone until the Spring Boudoir Examination is over. This way, no one will know the answer.]

General Mu feels that listening to your words is worth ten years of reading!

My daughter is God!

You know all this!

There is indeed such a venue at the border.

But that was used to detain spies from enemy countries.

I didn’t expect to use it in the Spring Boudoir Examination.

Without saying anything, General Mu handed Yan'er to Luo's arms and said, "Wan Niang, I'm going out to do something and will be back soon."

Luo knew it well, and hurriedly said to General Mu, "It's cold outside, go quickly and come back soon!"

This concerns the future and happiness of my eldest son!

It must be done as soon as possible!

I am so lucky to hear my daughter's voice.

After General Mu put on his cloak, he went to the Imperial College.

When General Mu found the eldest prince and told him some things about the reform of the Spring Boudoir Examination, the eldest prince thought it was feasible.

After all, there had been some cases of cheating in the imperial examinations in previous years, but there was no evidence.

After hearing General Mu's suggestion, the eldest prince applauded, "The general is truly a man of both civil and military abilities!"

"This is a brave and strategic reform, and it is indeed a good thing! It can avoid cheating and allow candidates to take the exam as soon as possible. It kills two birds with one stone. It should be promoted."

The eldest prince immediately agreed to General Mu's proposal.

"There are still questions to be asked. There are only a few days left. I wonder if it's too late to ask new questions?"

The eldest prince frowned, thinking that the current test questions must have been leaked.

Some answers are definitely in the hands of those who are interested.

Changing the topic is the most important thing right now.

"A thousand-mile horse can rush at 800 miles a day, so it's still in time," said General Mu.

"The test questions and venue will be announced on the day of the test. I believe those who want to cheat will fail." General Mu said.

"General Mu, you are truly a meritorious official of the Yan Kingdom. No wonder my father asked me to learn from you at the border." The eldest prince looked at General Mu with great admiration.

General Mu said, "Your Highness, thank you for the compliment. It is our duty to help the court select good talents!"

Besides, he doesn't have the brains to do that.

He is all thanks to his good daughter who can predict the future.

Moreover, he did this for selfish reasons.

His eldest son also took the imperial examination.

Whether his eldest son can marry the princess depends on whether he can get the top score in this spring examination.

After paying his respects to the eldest prince's residence, General Mu left.

The heavy snow outside stopped and was replaced by a clear sunny day.
