"I understand. Prince, you need to pay more attention to the examination hall...
The defense force needs to be strengthened. There are not enough people. Go tell the second brother to be careful!
I don’t need to elaborate on the importance of this Enke, you should understand…”
The prince immediately accepted the order and prepared to leave...
The emperor and the empress seemed to want to say something but stopped themselves, sighed, and ultimately did not open their mouths.
Jun Baozhu regained her strength after drinking the milk.
He just finished drinking milk and slept for a while. Now his eyes are wide open.
Fire Phoenix sensed it and immediately broke the news.
[The examination center has just finished drawing lots, and some candidates want to exchange lot numbers privately...]
Jun Baozhu's eyes widened, [What?!]
Huo Feng: [Fortunately, the examination staff discovered it in time...]
Jun Baozhu: [They exposed it on the spot? ]
Huo Feng: [They first checked the candidates' test records and reviewed their family situations...]
[It was discovered that the two candidates were from ordinary families, so the situation was reported to the head of the examination hall and the officials of the Ministry of Rites...]
[The official from the Ministry of Rites hesitated for a long time, fearing that he would be exposed by other candidates and punished by the Crown Prince, so he still dealt with the two candidates...]
The volume of Jun Baozhu's inner voice increased a bit.
【What? ! 】
[It's just a small matter, the candidates cheated, exchanged the lottery, and it took so long to waste so much time? ]
[They also need to check the candidate's family background... What? If the candidate's family is a high-ranking official, they won't deal with it? ]
[Let such a candidate be allowed to fill in the numbers, and turn a blind eye even if he bribes and cheats all the way? ]
【They are really amazing! 】
[If they weren't worried about the Crown Prince finding out, I'm afraid they wouldn't have dealt with it, right? ]
[Brother Crown Prince, I was only away for a short while, and they caused such a commotion! ]
【It’s really worrying! 】
Fire Phoenix: [This is just an appetizer! ]
[After the prince and you left, someone openly knocked on the door outside the examination hall, trying to bribe the examination hall staff and arrange for someone to take the exam for you...]
[They are even bolder, knowing that if they randomly place someone there, it would be easy for them to be discovered if they are from the prince...]
[They actually thought of bribing the examination hall staff and asking them to help them answer the questions...]
[Replace the answer sheet of your own candidate...]
Jun Baozhu sneered in his heart.
【Then what? 】
Huo Feng: [The conditions offered by the other party are very generous...]
[The examiners were not unmoved, but because there were guards arranged by the Second Prince outside the door...]
[Although they kept their voices down, their behavior was furtive. What if the guards reported it to the Crown Prince or the Second Prince...]
[With the prince's keenness, he may be able to find some clues...]
[So in the end, the examination hall staff rejected the candidates’ family members who tried to bribe them, and the same was true for the families of other candidates whose families had deep roots...]
Jun Baozhu asked back, [The examinee didn’t handle it? ]
Huo Feng: [Currently we have the situation under control, but the examinees are not aware of it.]
[If the candidates' families had made arrangements in advance, there would be no need to be present. When checking at the entrance, the prince tried to bribe the examination hall staff after dealing with so many candidates...]
[From this, it can be seen that this is probably because their family’s original plan did not work, so they resorted to a last-ditch measure, and took advantage of the absence of the Crown Prince and the Second Prince...]
【So, it can be seen that the candidates may not be aware of it. 】
[Even if they need to deal with it, they should deal with the candidate’s family members, or the manager who tried to bribe them...]
[But their families are all prominent, so the examination staff naturally dare not offend them easily. Being able to kick them out is already a bottom line compared to previous imperial examinations...]
Jun Baozhu continued to snort in his heart:
[Their bottom line is really too low! ]
[From this we can see how chaotic the imperial examinations were in the past! ]
[How difficult it is for poor students to succeed! ]
[These people in the examination hall are accomplices! ]
[Send this group of cheating villains to the court! ]
When Jun Baozhu's voice calmed down, Huo Feng said:
[Indeed, it is impossible to eliminate the accumulated problems that have continued for so many years in a short time...]
[Since their understanding is not enough, it is good to be able to respect and fear them a little. ]
[Now, they are worried about the Crown Prince's thorough investigation, so they are more concerned about the consequences of everything and dare not take action easily. This is also a good sign...]
Jun Baozhu did not deny it. [Brother Crown Prince, have you left the palace to take the examination now?]
[Could it be that the prince hasn't returned yet, and something else has happened on the way? ]
Huo Feng: [You really got it right...]
