Chapter 280: Changing the Topic Before the Battle



Xiao Yuqi took a sip of tea and was slightly stunned.

"Did you provoke him?"

Wuyouzi felt a little guilty.

"It's Qin Zhong... You know his character!"

Xiao Yuqi held his forehead with his hand.

"I'm afraid Qin Zhong will have to solve this matter himself."

"He is like a stone in a toilet, smelly and hard. It would be difficult to get him to bow his head and admit defeat!"

"Not necessarily. Tao Zhou does have some skills."

Qin Zhong is just a little cautious and old-fashioned, but he is a person who values ​​talent.

Now, he allowed Tao Zhou to make such a fuss in the ordnance camp and tolerated it again and again, just to see clearly how powerful Tao Zhou was.

...

...

"Qin Zhong knows his limits. If you can't sleep well at night, you can rest in the palace for the next two days."

"No, I have to go back to the Ordnance Camp. I have to go see the excitement. Qin Zhong's excitement is not something you can see every day!"

It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Wuyouzi said goodbye with the medicine box.

Only then did Xiao Yuqi hug Su Jianyue and fell into a deep sleep.

On Su Jianyue's side, the filming was proceeding step by step.

Xiao Yuqi was planning carefully at every step.

The first official imperial examination began in full swing under the attention of the public.

In the Imperial Examination Hall, students entered one by one.

Outside the Imperial Examination Hall, the entire street was filled with people who were sending their families into the examination hall and common people who were watching the excitement.

Wait until all students enter.

The time has come.

The soldiers from the patrol battalion surrounded the entire venue.

Not even a fly can get in.

Until the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall was locked and sealed.

The crowd dispersed reluctantly.

Such a grand occasion.

It sounded a wake-up call in the hearts of many people.

The common people and dignitaries who witnessed the entire process spread the scene vividly across the country.

All the images are like a reassurance, giving great hope to those who want to enroll but are nervous about doing so.

As the schools were built, more and more children from poor families came to enroll.

From just a handful of people, referred to as scale.

Finally huge.

The seeds are buried deep in the soil.

Finally it breaks out of the ground and the road is gradually completed.

The dark clouds will eventually dissipate, revealing a bright blue sky.

Faith and hope gradually converge.

Ten thousand trickles of water will eventually converge into a river!

Everything that appears on the surface is the scene that we want to present to the world.

On this important day, Xiao Yuqi appeared in Tianji Tower in plain clothes.

The files of all officials involved in the case of stealing exam questions were placed on a long table.

No one knew that the stolen test paper was completely useless.

Because, the moment after the test questions were stolen, the people planted by Xiao Yuqi replaced the sealed test questions with new ones.

Without anyone noticing.

Today's chief examiner is the respected Master Xie.

The Imperial Censor Han Zhuo served as his assistant.

He was assisted by nine ministers and other officials.

In full view of the public.

Master Xie, full of righteousness, opened the test paper.

The confidence in victory in his eyes cracked slightly, barely audible.

But in a moment, he returned to normal.

The smile on his lips did not change at all.

He opened the silk cloth with the test questions written on it and turned it over.

The question should have originally said "mountains and rivers".

Suddenly became the current "people".

The topic is about the people.

Write an essay to answer.

Among the officials in charge of supervising the examination, half of them felt a pang in their hearts.

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

The test questions are distributed.

Undercurrents were surging inside and outside the Imperial Examination Hall.

The pool of water in Jian'an City was finally muddied.

It’s bottomless.

"Pay close attention to the movements of all candidates and examiners, and keep records of every detail. Do not be lazy."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I have made all the arrangements."

After Tianshu finished speaking, he took out a volume from among the files.

"The assassin who assassinated Your Majesty and Miss Su that day was named Yan Fang. He was the most skilled martial artist under the former crown prince."

He spread out the bamboo slips and placed them right in front of Xiao Yuqi.

"According to Tianji, this man was in Jiangnan during the time when we led our army to Maoer Mountain, secretly winning over officials of all ranks in Jiangnan for the former crown prince."

"During the battle at Maoer Mountain, the woman who kidnapped Miss Su was Yan Fang's sister, Yan Tao. Yan Tao's husband was named A Feng. Before that, when Your Majesty was living in the county governor's mansion, he was attacked by a group of assassins, and A Feng was among them."

As for what happened afterwards, you can follow the clues and guess the whole story.

A Feng failed in his attempt to assassinate Xiao Yuqi and was killed instead.

Yan Tao only wanted to avenge A Feng, so she took advantage of the opportunity and kidnapped Su Jianyue, causing Su Jianyue to fall seriously ill and almost die.

Xiao Yuqi also lost half his life.

After that.

General Xiao Yuqi gave the order to cut Yan Tao into pieces.

This news was not deliberately concealed.

Yan Fang learned of his sister's tragic death and the mountain master was defeated.

He simply took his own initiative, quickly gathered all the remaining forces of Maoer Mountain, joined forces with the Xu family, and made a comeback.

Unexpectedly, it still failed.

"Did Prime Minister Wei participate in this matter?"

“No.”

Tianshu said with certainty: "Prime Minister Wei has stayed indoors. He has only met Xu once during this period of time. That was when Wei Qingwu was abducted to the northern border. He was so angry that he vented his anger at Xu. Since then, Prime Minister Wei has moved out of the Prime Minister's Mansion and lived in a manor in the northern suburbs. He has never had any contact with anyone."

"He is definitely not as calm as he looks."

It has come to this.

He still occupied the position of prime minister and refused to give it up.

He was determined to wait for Xiao Yuqi to speak and then remove him from his official position himself.

"Publish the news that Xu was conspiring with the rebels to assassinate me to the world, remove Wei Xiang from his post, demote him to a commoner, make all the servants in the mansion slaves, confiscate all the property in the mansion and turn it over to the national treasury."

"Yes, I will obey your command."

People only become desperate when they are forced into a truly desperate situation.

Only then will the final trump card be revealed.

What Xiao Yuqi feared most was that Wei Zhijiang would cooperate with Xiao Linshen.

If these two old foxes join forces to deal with him.

It will only affect his overall plan.

He can only strike first.

"There is one more thing. The poison in His Royal Highness the Regent has been completely removed. Will he... come to trouble you, Your Majesty?"

Xiao Yuqi glanced at the diamond strawberry hairband on her wrist, and a rare tenderness appeared in her eyes.

"This depends on how important my mother is in the emperor's uncle's heart. Is she really that important?"

His Yue'er can always help him solve his urgent problems.

"Over at the Alley, do we need to..."

"Don't move for now, and see what the Queen Mother will choose."

Xiao Yuqi really wanted to see his closest relatives and loved ones.

What choice will the Queen Mother make in the end?

"Don't forget, there is also Xue Qingyan beside the Emperor's uncle!"

That woman is not an easy person to deal with.

Tianshu suddenly became clear.

"Your Majesty, your opinion is great!"
