"I've read all the papers from this spring's exam and am very satisfied with them. One person's essay resonated with me, and it reminded me of an essay I read when I was younger."
The emperor smiled and said, "Chen Yongwang, come forward."
Chen Yongwang was surprised and happy, and immediately trotted forward. The emperor's heart was in a knot, and he shouted wildly: Don't come over!
Two eunuchs hurriedly stopped him.
Chen Yongwang blinked nervously, knelt down, and shouted, "Your Highness Chen Yongwang, I pay my respects to His Majesty the Emperor!"
Jiang Shuyue: [Wow, the sound is so loud it's deafening!]
Huahua: [Look, look, the blisters are about to go beyond the collar!]
Jiang Shuyue: [Yeah, stay away. Don’t get infected!]
She leaned back, not forgetting to pull the people on both sides to hide together.
The emperor didn't know what was wrong.
Although he had taken precautions, he still felt uneasy when Chen Yongwang approached.
It's like knowing a piece of shit is approaching you, and you instinctively start to feel disgusted.
The emperor straightened his back and said, "Although you didn't come in first, I think you're mature and have a promising future. So I'd like to test you in person. How about you share your thoughts on the situation between our Great Zhou and the Southern Barbarians?"
One stone can cause huge waves.
Not only Chen Yongwang, but even Jiang An and the second prince's expressions changed.
Only the Fourth Prince remained relatively calm and just frowned.
Chen Yongwang was dumbfounded. His article was stolen by Jiang An. He had no real talent or knowledge. On top of that, he was very nervous and his tongue suddenly became tied.
"Well, well, only a fool would do that."
"What? I didn't hear what Mr. Chen said clearly."
"Reply to my royal brother."
King Huai said, "Mr. Chen should have said 'sprinkle water'. I have heard this dialect before. It means 'so-so', a very simple word."
"Haha, Mr. Chen is really amazing. The imperial policy papers are just a drop in the bucket for you. Then let's get started."
What to start? What should I do? Where is this? Cousin, help me!
Chen Yongwang stared at Jiang An with tears in his eyes. A grown man was about to cry.
Jiang An was also anxious.
Although he was tested by the emperor that year, he only wrote a few simple poems and couplets.
Moreover, in the previous sessions, except for the palace examination, it was similar. The purpose was just to allow students to show their talents again and have some fun.
Never before has a policy been presented so directly as today.
Jiang An's head was numb and he wanted to speak but didn't know where to start.
Prince Zhong: "Is this question too complicated? Why don't you try another one? I'll come up with one."
"If a widow seduces a man and they have sex."
"The man clearly had a family and money, but he didn't want to take responsibility for the widow. He even stole her property and sent her to someone else's bed to seek a relationship."
"That widow isn't a good person either. She knows the man made his fortune thanks to his mother's family and is very afraid of his father-in-law, so she wants to use this to control him. What do you think the sentence should be?"
Jiang Shuyue was stunned: "Is this kind of topic something you can casually bring up in this situation? This is a bit too much."
Huahua: [You must always believe in the royal family's ability to endure. What kind of people haven't they seen over the years? Prince Zhong, for example, has certainly opened their eyes.]
The Queen Mother nodded silently in her heart.
This kid had caused a lot of trouble to himself and the late emperor, and his words were shocking. Thinking back carefully, it was the old marquis who took action to stop him.
Without a second thought, Chen Yongwang blurted out, "Drag this bitch out and beat her to death."
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
Jiang Shuyue almost applauded him: [What a brave middle-aged man! This method is absolutely brilliant, but why didn't they both die together? Why did only the woman die?]
Yes!
The emperor also wanted to ask: "They both had evil intentions and committed such a crime. Why did you punish only the woman and not the man?"
"If the bitch hadn't deliberately seduced him, how could the man have made a mistake?"
"This vicious woman harms others and herself, she deserves the death penalty!"
Jiang Shuyue: [To favor boys over girls to this extent is insane!]
Huahua: [His first child was a girl, and he also had a concubine who also gave birth to a girl. Because he favored sons over daughters, he either sold or killed the children until he gave birth to a son.]
Princess Zhaohua was very angry after hearing this.
What's wrong with women? Is this what women have to endure?
She snorted coldly, "Mr. Chen's remarks really opened my eyes. Forgive my ignorance, but the laws of this dynasty are always strict. I wonder which law Mr. Chen is referring to?"
"Does this still need to be in accordance with the law?"
He lowered his head and muttered softly: "Isn't this a very normal thing?"
When Jiang An heard this, he almost fainted.
Madam Jiang was still puzzled: "Isn't this clearly a case of a bitch seducing? What laws should be followed?"
"Shut up!"
Jiang An was not in a position to speak out at this time. He watched the emperor's smile gradually change, but he could not take any action.
Fortunately, at this time, Lan Ruoyue rode a donkey into the inner hall.
"Your Majesty, I think what Mr. Chen said makes sense. Things have their priorities and are right and wrong. Since the woman was at fault first, she should be punished. Since she is a widow, she should observe her husbandly duties. If she flirts with other men and destroys other families, she deserves to die."
Lan Ruoyue was still dressed in white, sitting sideways on the donkey's back with her back straight.
The only difference is that the neckline of her top was specially designed to have a V-neck.
Although I am an ordinary person, my height is low enough, and with the help of the shadow, I can control a man for three seconds.
