Chapter 569: Huo Yaoxing was carried out of the examination room again
Until the exiled prisoners set out on their journey.
The government began to resettle those who were persecuted.
With Wen Yan's help, Deng Mi Niangzi found her daughter.
Her daughter was wearing maid's clothes and was already a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old.
Although one ear is deaf, at least he is still alive.
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.
Mrs. Dengmi plans to take her daughter to live in a small town in the south.
After packing my luggage, I came to say goodbye to Wen Yan.
Wen Yan gave the silver from selling the glass bead lamp to the mother and daughter: "With this money, you will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life.
However, wealth should not be shown off, so you should still be cautious and careful in your actions."
"Thank you, Mr. Liu. You are my mother and I's savior." Mrs. Dengmi pulled her daughter and kowtowed to Wen Yan.
Wen Yan quickly helped the man up and said, "Go back quickly and be careful on your way."
After seeing the mother and daughter off, Wen Yan turned around and saw that Ying Zhilin had arrived in her yard without her noticing.
"Why are you here?" Wen Yan asked, "Aren't you going to the government office today?"
"Now that the matter is settled, Pei Shaoqing will let me go home and rest for three days." As he said this, he stuck to Wen Yan.
Wen Yan supported his shoulders with her fingers: "We are just friends now, keep a safe distance."
"Oh, okay." Ying Zhilin looked disappointed and took a few steps back obediently.
Just when Wen Yan was relaxing, he suddenly attacked from another direction and hugged Wen Yan tightly in his arms.
The two of them joked around for a while before Ying Zhilin talked about the obscure aspects of the case.
The case wouldn't have dragged on for so long if it were just the use of Wu Shi San and the kidnapping of a young girl.
This case also involved serious crimes such as corruption, selling official positions and titles, privately minting copper coins, and privately minting weapons.
In addition to the Lan family and Prince Consort Gu, the fight for the throne among the five princes and other members of the royal family are also involved.
Only a few officials were dealt with openly.
In private, several royal relatives were secretly executed.
"Old King Xin is among them."
"Prince Xin? The one that even the current emperor has to respectfully call uncle?" Wen Yan was extremely surprised. She didn't expect that the case would involve a wider range of people than she had expected.
Ying Zhilin nodded: "Their whole family supports the Five Emperors..."
Before Ying Zhilin could finish his words, Wen Yan covered his mouth with her hand and said, "Shh, this is a royal secret. The more you know, the faster you will die. I don't want to hear it at all."
As the two were talking, it was already dark.
Wen Yan's stomach rumbled, so Ying Zhilin got up to get her something to eat.
He stood up and suddenly pounced on Wen Yan again.
Immediately afterwards, with a sudden sound, an arrow brushed past Ying Zhilin's shoulder and hit the door.
"Yuesheng, there is an assassin!" Wen Yan shouted.
Arrows fell like raindrops.
Wen Yan and the other man hid in the house using the cover of a chair.
Wen Yan immediately took out two swords from under the bed.
She threw a handful to Ying Zhilin and was about to go out to fight the enemy.
Yuesheng's two fists are no match for four hands, and Wen Yan is worried that she will get hurt.
Ying Zhilin held her down and said, "You don't have to do anything. If you're worried about retaliation, we've already ambushed people in the dark."
Sure enough, I heard the sound of fighting coming from outside.
After a while, the fighting stopped.
When Wen Yan opened the door and went out, he smelled a strong smell of blood and saw more than ten corpses lying on the ground.
A man dressed as an ordinary citizen bowed to Ying Zhilin and said, "There's poison hidden in their teeth. Not a single one of them will survive."
Wen Yanze had already guessed who did it.
She said, "Just pretend that the clue is broken. I will make the rest of the arrangements."
The man looked at Ying Zhilin and asked for his opinion.
Ying Zhilin said: "Listen to her."
Thus, the assassination was quietly suppressed, as if nothing had happened.
Gu Saisai and Huo Yaoxing were anxious for half a month because they didn't receive a reply.
Gu Saisai was not sentenced because of her status as a married woman.
After that, she was very quiet for a while.
Most of the officials in the court were killed.
The emperor has opened an imperial examination and added a provincial examination this winter, just one month later.
There will be another imperial examination in February next year.
Soon, Jing Mingmei informed Wen Yan.
Huo Yaoxing will also participate in this provincial examination and is full of confidence.
"confidence?"
Wen Yan would not allow him to have this thing.
Within two days, she sent new incense to Jing Mingmei.
Time flies.
The day of the provincial examination soon arrived.
On this day, even Gu Saisai, who had been keeping a low profile recently, showed up.
She came specially to send Huo Yaoxing to the examination room: "Even if you don't believe in yourself, you should believe in the ability of the Grand Tutor. You will definitely be on the list this time."
Gu Saisai was even more nervous than Huo Yaoxing. Husband and wife are one, and only when Huo Yaoxing turns things around can she have a good life.
Gu Saisai placed all her hopes on Huo Yaoxing.
However.
On the third day of the exam, Wen Yan heard that Huo Yaoxing fainted in the exam room due to exhaustion and was carried out.
Gu Saisai almost fainted when she heard the news.
The Marquis' Mansion invited many doctors to examine Huo Yaoxing, but they only came to one conclusion: excessive stress caused him to faint in the examination room.
Huo Yaoxing was well-fed and well-served at the Marquis' Mansion. After lying at home for three days, his health was restored to normal.
Marquis Jinping was extremely disappointed with him: "Your mentality can't even cope with the provincial examination, how can you gain a foothold in the officialdom in the future?"
Huo Yaoxing knelt before Marquis Jinping and said, "Father, I am the heir of the Marquis's mansion. Please don't give up on me, okay?"
Marquis Jinping kicked him away and said: "Let your second brother take on the responsibility of entering the government. You can help him manage the family business from now on."
Huo Yaoxing collapsed to the ground.
He knew that his father completely disliked him.
Huo Yaoxing was devastated and never recovered, and from then on he spent every day in brothels.
"It's not enough!" Wen Yan's revenge has just begun.
Wen Yan specially found Aunt Shuang and gave her some instructions.
A few days later.
Huo Yaoxing resumed contact with his father's mistress, Jiang Rouer.
Half a month later, the results of the provincial examination were announced.
Qi Yunzhou lived up to expectations and won the title of Jieyuan.
Huo Jinxing lived up to everyone's expectations and ranked among the top ten.
Marquis Jinping was very happy and specially held a wedding banquet for him, inviting all the dignitaries in the capital.
The day of the wedding banquet.
All the guests gathered around Huo Jinxing, the illegitimate son, and praised him highly.
Huo Yaoxing was forgotten in a corner, and even those who used to be on good terms with him kept their distance from him.
Everyone knows.
Things are about to change in the Marquis of Jinping's Mansion.
Huo Yaoxing got drunk at the banquet and started acting crazy.
After being scolded by Marquis Jin Ping, he was also despised by Gu Saisai.
After the two had a big quarrel, Huo Yaoxing left the house.
**
The next day.
Wen Yan got up.
Then I heard a commotion coming from the alley outside the yard.
Wen Yan didn't even put on makeup and ran to join in the fun.
As a result, she heard the news she wanted to hear most.
It turned out that Marquis Jinping was meeting his concubine at night, but he caught her making love with his eldest son.
The father and son fought each other for a woman, and the couple was bleeding.
The father and son were carried back home.
"Guess what happened?" The neighbor aunt winked, obviously there was more explosive news.
Everyone around him was so tempted by him that they asked cooperatively, "What happened? Tell me now!"
The aunt put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "Marquis Jinping was seriously injured, and he was so angry that he had a stroke."
