[After all, there was no engagement, and the best friend didn’t even have the courage to question the girl...]
[The close friend followed them all the way, watching the two of them being affectionate, and watching the candidate send his beloved woman home...]
[Just appeared in front of the candidate, the close friend burst into tears and questioned him. Guess what the candidate said? 】
The ministers turned around and looked at the candidates again.
[He remained calm and said, "The competent ones will take the place..."]
【How shameless! 】
[No one has ever described stealing someone's wife in such a strange way! ]
[She is arrogant at heart, as if mocking that she is able to win the heart of her best friend because of her incompetence...]
[This kind of person is not only cruel and ruthless, but also vicious! ]
[If he hadn't gotten information about the woman from his best friend and knew her likes and dislikes, would he have been able to please her so easily? And win her favor?]
[Why? Because he has nothing but a beautiful appearance? ]
[His best friend was from a wealthy family and never treated him with arrogance, but he ended up biting back and mocking his best friend? ]
[This kind of person is shameless! ]
[Utilitarianism and calculation, trampling on sincerity! ]
[Although he ranked second to last in the written exam, he may not be able to turn things around by passing the palace exam...]
[But I feel unlucky when he appears here! The temple is dirty! ]
【My eyes feel uncomfortable when I see this! 】
Many ministers laughed secretly, but when they thought about what the candidate had done, how young he was, yet he was so calculating and scheming, betraying a friend who was sincere and had conditions many times better than him...
It would be disheartening if such a person were selected.
The examinee saw this and knew that his chances of passing were slim and he did not want to be exposed for more…
If the news gets out, the marriage may be in jeopardy.
Even if the wife remains the same, how will the parents-in-law view it? How will the neighbors and relatives and friends view it?
The candidate decisively gave up the exam and withdrew.
Upon seeing this, Huo Feng analyzed the situation for Jun Baozhu.
Jun Baozhu's voice was full of sarcasm:
[Are you guilty? Or do you know that you don't have an advantage in the written test and your chances of passing are slim, so you give up the test to save face? ]
[To prevent others from talking about him failing the exam in the future? ]
[This kind of person is not worthy of his reputation. The truth will eventually come to light. People will surely discover his true colors in the future! ]
【Hypocrisy! Unlucky! 】
The ministers were all shocked. If they remembered correctly, the little princess's full moon banquet had not yet been held...
Does a baby less than one year old really have such a large vocabulary?
Are you still so powerful when you curse at others?
The last candidate walked to the front.
After listening to Huo Feng's revelations, Jun Baozhu took a deep breath and remained silent for a long time.
Upon seeing this, the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment.
【cough! 】
After a long time, Jun Baozhu sighed again.
The emperor lowered his head upon hearing this and carefully checked his daughter's expression.
[Father, are you looking at me? Are you worried about me?]
[Father is so kind! I'm fine, I just wonder why this happened...]
The emperor felt relieved when he heard his daughter's voice was calm.
Then I heard my daughter continue to reveal:
[This last candidate cannot take part in the palace examination! ]
[It was not his fault, but because his relatives had committed crimes, according to the law, he did not meet the requirements to take the palace examination.]
There was an uproar in the hall, and the ministers discussed privately, if someone in the candidate's family had committed a crime, why didn't the state government discover it before the test discs were issued?
The little princess seemed to have heard their doubts, and then broke the news:
[He has three siblings. His eldest brother got lost when he was young and has never been found.]
[And recently, his youngest sister also disappeared. ]
[On that day, several girls from the neighborhood invited each other to watch the lanterns together.]
[There were many people at the time, and several people were separated. After the crowd dispersed, several people did not return home for a long time, so their families came to look for each other and found that their daughters were missing. ]
[Several families reported the incident to the police. After investigation, vendors nearby pointed out that there were burly men next to the girls, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye...]
The ministers watched intently, and after hearing this, they had already guessed what happened next.
[Although the government has little evidence and limited witnesses, based on the information they have, the yamen runners privately revealed that they suspected several girls had been abducted and sold...]
[The yamen runner said this just to hope that the family would be mentally prepared to avoid a worse situation that the family members could not accept for a while.]
[The government is quite responsible. Although the suspect has not been found, the case has not been closed. If there is any suspicious information, they will follow up and investigate.]
[Unfortunately, I still haven’t found anyone. ]
The candidate's shoulders slumped and there was sorrow in his eyes.
The ministers closest to him whispered, "Since the little princess said so, she must know the whereabouts of the candidate's sister..."
Another minister received, "Speaking of the eldest brother, you should also know the whereabouts of the eldest brother!"
The candidate suddenly raised his head and looked upwards with hope.
