Seeing the Second Prince looking at him, Xu Tianze smiled and shook his head at him, and gently shook the hand that was holding the Second Prince.
Naturally, everyone present heard Nan Xunjie's words directly. He did not mention at all that Xu Tianze had already been appointed by Emperor Gan as the invigilator of this imperial examination. Instead, he directly asked Emperor Gan whether he wanted to follow the previous rules.
To put it bluntly, isn't it just a disapproval of Xu Tianze? What's more, saying this is just waiting for Xu Tianze to attack, and if he does, he will fall directly into the trap.
Didn’t you see Emperor Gan sitting up there, looking like he was watching a show?
But Nan Xunjie is really a forgetful person. Has he forgotten that in addition to offending Long Musi, he also offended the prince?
"Hmph, Lord Nan is indeed a man of great righteousness, but I wonder if he is willing to sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice?" The prince walked in from outside, and his anger mixed with resentment followed.
"Your Highness." Nan Xunjie turned around and saw the prince. He was a little shocked and even broke into a cold sweat because of what the prince had just said.
"Your son greets you, father." The prince ignored Nan Xunjie and walked to the side to salute Emperor Gan respectfully.
Taking advantage of the interval between the salutes, the prince glanced at Xu Tianze inconspicuously, and then withdrew his gaze.
Emperor Gan was sitting alone on the high platform, and he saw this clearly. There was no expression on his face, but he still gave Xu Tianze a thumbs up in his heart.
Originally, when Xu Tianze handed him the message, he only mentioned the imperial examination. Naturally, the crown prince of the current dynasty would also be present, giving Emperor Gan a reason to release the crown prince.
I was still wondering where this favor would be used, but I didn't expect it to be used at this very moment. It was really well calculated.
"Get up. We are discussing the imperial examination now. After all, you are the crown prince, so you should listen and watch more." Emperor Gan nodded to the crown prince and motioned him to stand aside.
"Thank you, father. However, I still have a few questions for Lord Nan." The prince stood up and saluted Emperor Gan, then turned his attention to Nan Xunjie.
Seeing Emperor Gan nod in agreement, the Crown Prince then turned to Nan Xunjie and said, "Lord Nan, I have some doubts that I would like you to clarify for me."
"I dare not. Your Highness, please tell me everything I know." Nan Xunjie felt a little bitter and disappointed in himself.
This prince really can't tell the difference between family members. Even if there are some dirty things between them, they are still family after all.
If the Nan family is still in charge of the imperial examinations, the prince will definitely be the one who can get the greatest benefits. After all, the Nan family is the most loyal party to the prince.
It is difficult for him here. If the Nan family does not get the hosting of the imperial examination in the end, even if the prince can get some benefits, it will definitely not be the biggest one.
The Nan family has supported the prince for a long time, but the prince doesn't even have this little insight. Could it be that his Nan family really chose the wrong person?
Thinking of this, Nan Xunjie looked at the prince with more resentment.
"Seeing the days passing by one by one, I wonder if cousin Yan'er is living smoothly in the mansion?" The prince simply ignored the resentment in Nan Xunjie's eyes, and instead started chatting with Nan Xunjie about family matters.
However, this family gossip was so direct that it made the eyelids of the audience twitch. They had thought that the prince would be more tactful, but they did not expect him to be so disrespectful.
"Your Highness, what are you talking about? I know that I have committed serious sins, and I have been apologizing in the ancestral hall in the mansion." Nan Xunjie was a little annoyed when he saw that the prince did not give him face.
"Oh? Even though my cousin behaved like this, the Marquis only locked her up in the ancestral hall? It really is worthy of the Marquis's deep love for his daughter." The prince pretended to be surprised and gave a hypocritical praise.
Others may not know how the Nan family dealt with Nan Xueyan, but doesn’t he know?
Kneeling in the ancestral temple to atone for sins only sounds good, but in reality it is nothing more than being confined to your own yard.
If Nan Xueyan hadn't insisted on going back on her word when getting married to Long Musi, this spark wouldn't have directly hit him.
That way, even if he was plotted against and had an affair with Princess Fu'an, he would be sure that it would not become known to everyone.
His reputation was ruined, and Fu'an was thrown into the backyard and tortured to death, but Nan Xueyan was still living freely under the protection of the Nan family.
"I understand that the Marquis loves his daughter, but I don't know when the Marquis's Mansion will give me an explanation?" Seeing that it was his turn to take the stage, Long Musi did not hesitate and directly made sarcastic remarks.
Let’s not talk about the fact that the prince suddenly appeared, but since the prince was targeting him so obviously, he naturally had to help out.
If the Nan family is disobedient, then just bring them down and replace them with your own people. Whether it is selecting from the students or promoting or demoting them, in this special period, we naturally support it.
The prince's current behavior seems to be due to the same intention as his, so he naturally has to play this role well.
After all, it is a rare opportunity. The court has been full of ups and downs. Who wouldn't be in trouble if he left?
"This-" Nan Xunjie saw that Long Muse also stood up, his face was bitter, he looked at the prince on the left and at Long Muse on the right, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
"Hahaha, my royal brother and younger brother really scared Lord Nan." The second prince raised the corner of his mouth and opened his mouth slowly, saluting Emperor Gan.
"There are already many students in Shangjing City. This is a grand gathering of scholars from all over the world, and the adults present here will naturally be careful about their reputation." As he said this, the second prince glanced at everyone in the court and turned his gaze back to Nan Xunjie.
