According to Gao Qin, we can do as he says.
They began to lay out their plans and set an ambush.
Two days later, they encountered the robbers in Beiling Mountain and captured them all. Through coercion and inducement, they successfully subdued the robbers.
After subduing them, they discovered that several heads of families were gifted people.
If these were placed in the army, they would definitely become powerful generals.
When Gu Fanzhi heard the news, he was overjoyed and became more convinced of Bei Yutang.
He hurried to find Bei Yutang, but before he could share his joy, he heard Bei Yutang say, "Five days later, rescue a prostitute outside the southern city."
"What's different about the girl in the brothel?" Gu Fan asked subconsciously.
Bei Yutang kept his mouth shut and ignored it.
Seeing this, Gu Fanzhi tactfully left.

When Bei Yutang was working as a charlatan, the results of the imperial examination came out. Xiao Moer was successfully selected and became the youngest Jinshi in history. The next step was the palace examination.
The palace examination will divide the candidates into the top three, and who will be the top three and who will become the number one scholar will be selected by Emperor Wenxuan himself.
The palace examination will be held in three days. During these three days, all the selected candidates will be busy reviewing their studies, waiting for the palace examination three days later to be selected by the emperor as the top three.
Three days passed like a flash, and little Moer stood out among the young and old men.
In the low-class gambling houses in Chang'an City, the betting has already begun to determine who will be chosen as the top three in the imperial examination.
Xiao Mo'er's odds of being selected as the "Top Scholar" were 2 to 1, and his odds were comparable to Lin Feng from Hanshan Academy. The lowest odds were against Qi Menghui from Taibai Academy and the other three who were tied for the Four Young Masters. They were the candidates for the Top Scholar's disciples.
During the palace examination, Gu Fanzhi's men successfully rescued a brothel girl who was about to commit suicide. From the brothel girl, they learned the secret of Fang Xinhou, and with this secret, they were able to catch the second prince.
Gu Fanzhi and other counselors including Gao Qin began to plan how to overthrow the Second Prince in one fell swoop and injure his group seriously.
There were undercurrents in the court, and the atmosphere in the palace examination was equally tense.
The ministers handed the three best exam papers to Emperor Wenxuan's Android, waiting for him to select the top three. All the candidates waited in a side hall for the results, and while they waited, everyone was restless and unable to calm down.
Two hours later, after reading dozens of test papers, Emperor Wenxuan finally saw one that was eye-opening.
"This boy will surely be the top scorer in the imperial examination." Emperor Wenxuan looked at the examination paper with satisfaction.
Emperor Wenxuan already had three satisfactory exam papers in his hand, and he wasn't interested in the remaining papers. However, he casually flipped through them until he read the last one, and his eyes lit up.
Emperor Wenxuan looked at the two test papers in front of him, which made him difficult to decide. Both of them had the talent to be the top scorer, which made it difficult for him to make a decision for a while.
Emperor Wenxuan opened the two examination papers and saw the signatures on one of them was Mu Zimo, a name familiar to everyone present. The other was much more ordinary, Lin Feng, a student from Hanshan Academy.
"Who do you think is more suitable to be the 'number one scholar'?" Emperor Wenxuan directly asked the question to the officials below.
Someone immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, it must be Lin Feng. Although Mu Zimo is a child prodigy with brilliant literary talent, he is too young. Even if he became the top scholar, he would not be able to enter the court and serve the emperor. Lin Feng, on the other hand, is still in his prime and can be used by Your Majesty."
