[It is really better for this official not to be a good official! He did not even allow leave for such a serious matter. He is simply inhumane! ]
Emperor Yuan felt that he could not suffer this injustice in vain, so he winked at Qin Shi who was standing near Jiang Yueyang.
After Qin Shi understood the look in Emperor Yuan's eyes, he whispered to the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice in front of him, "Lord Lu, didn't you say two days ago that you had something to do today and you needed to ask for leave from the Minister of Justice? Why are you here today? Didn't the Minister approve it?"
The Minister of Justice frowned in confusion. Is this true?
Hearing Qin Shi's words "no one came", the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice exclaimed in confusion.
Qin Shi glanced to the side, and the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice immediately reacted and said, "No, no, the matter was resolved in advance, so I didn't ask for leave from the Minister."
"Oh, so that's how it is."
Jiang Yueyang heard every word of their conversation and couldn't help feeling guilty.
[Xiaogua, I think I just wronged your Majesty. The Personnel Department's Deputy Minister should ask for leave from the Personnel Department's Minister. The inhumane person is the Personnel Department's Minister.]
Minister of Personnel: I won’t take the blame!
Emperor Yuan: No! You have to take the blame!
The Minister of Justice suddenly realized that it was to clear His Majesty of suspicion! I thought there was something wrong with my memory.
The system said meaningfully: [Who cares? They don’t know what you’re thinking anyway.]
[That's right.] Jiang Yueyang nodded, [By the way, where is Madam Xiao now?]
【you guess.】
Jiang Yueyang thought seriously for a while, [Could it be that their sister secretly took the person away? ]
The British princess was the first to deny it. It was impossible! Even if their sister wanted to take the person away, her husband's family would not agree.
Of course, I agree. Even if my wife invites everyone from her family to live in the Duke's Mansion, I have no objection at all!
Civil and military officials also found it impossible. No woman would bring her mother back to live with her husband's family while her brother was still alive. Isn't this deliberately causing unrest in the family?
System: [Hahahaha... their sister did have this idea, but before she could take action, Old Madam Xiao disappeared.]
[It's not the three brothers of Lord Xiao, nor their sister. Old Madam Xiao is safe now. Could it be that... Old Madam Xiao left on her own? ]
【 Bingo! Correct answer. 】
【Why?】
All the civil and military officials also asked themselves why.
[Because Old Madam Xiao met her twilight love! ]
After these words came out, everyone present was stunned for a moment. When they reacted, they all opened their eyes wide.
Especially Xiao Yi, he felt that he must be hallucinating!
But when he saw the reactions of his colleagues, he knew clearly that it was not an auditory hallucination.
Twilight romance?
Who is it?
Which old bastard kidnapped my mother?
Hearing the words "twilight love", Jiang Yueyang couldn't help but get a little excited, "Xiaogua, are you saying that Madam Xiao is with her twilight love partner now?"
[Yes. The reason why Old Madam Xiao divided the family property among the three brothers Xiao Yi was not because Xiao Yi and the others had already started their own families and careers, but because she wanted to spend the two of them with her Huang Hunlian.
Who would have thought that the three Xiao Yi brothers did not understand their mother's heart at all, and made her run back and forth month after month, suffering from lovesickness every day. 】
Jiang Yueyang: […Do you love me so deeply? To the point where you are suffering from lovesickness?]
Xiao Yi: “…”
Civil and military officials: "..."
The system snorted: [Is it not possible? Are you young people allowed to love each other to death? ]
[Okay, that's great! Everyone has the right to pursue love, regardless of age, family background, nationality, or gender...]
These words deeply shocked everyone present. Lord Xiao Jiang’s ideological awareness is too high!
The Right Prime Minister lowered his eyes and thought deeply. Does gender have anything to do with it?
The system is satisfied. [That’s all for today’s melon. Is the host satisfied with this melon? ]
[Very good, this is a result I didn’t expect. ]
Hearing this, the system snorted arrogantly.
After eating the melon, the morning court progressed rapidly and came to an end in a short while.
A quarter of an hour later, the morning court ended.
As soon as Emperor Yuan left, the Minister of Personnel walked towards Jiang Yueyang and soon reached her side.
"Master Xiao Jiang, the results of the imperial examination have been announced. Now we are going to post the list and announce the time of the palace examination."
"I want to go too?" Jiang Yueyang was a little surprised.
"What else? You are the examiner."
Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang muttered, "I'm the chief examiner, but you didn't let me help you mark the papers."
Minister of Personnel: “…”
The system said unceremoniously: [Host, we want you to participate in grading the papers, but you must have the ability to do so.
There are no standard answers for you to follow to mark and grade the papers. It all depends on your own judgment.
With the little knowledge I have, if I let you participate in marking the papers, your ranking will definitely be exaggerated. 】
Jiang Yueyang's face flushed at what the system said, and she refuted with a lack of confidence: [I... I also graduated from a prestigious university. ]
[It is useless to graduate from a prestigious university if you learn different things. Besides, how many knowledge points can you remember?
Let's take a simple one. A small bridge on a flat bank is surrounded by thousands of mountains, and the soft blue water is surrounded by flowers and grass. There are several thatched cottages with graceful windows. What is the next sentence? 】 (Can you remember it without searching?)
Everyone who heard this half of the ancient poem from the system gradually slowed down their pace. What a good poem!
What comes after this?
Many people began to secretly try to continue with the next sentence, especially Taifu and Kong Jijiu, who were known for their erudition and learning.
But after thinking about it for a few sentences, they were not satisfied and could not help but prick up their ears to listen, wanting to know what the next sentence was.
Jiang Yueyang had no idea at all. She was not familiar with the poem that the system had just read.
She coughed awkwardly and changed the subject: [Xiaogua, didn't you say you don't have that knowledge? Did you deliberately not help me before? ]
[I didn’t, I upgraded.]
[Oh, I've upgraded. That's good. Keep up the good work.]
After saying that, Jiang Yueyang didn't give the system a chance to react, and immediately urged the Minister of Personnel, "Sir, let's go faster, don't let the candidates wait anxiously. By the way, do the candidates know that the results will be announced today?"
"I had someone post a notice the day Master Xiao Jiang returned to Beijing."
Taifu and Kong Jijiu looked at the two people's backs as they walked away. What was the next sentence?
The system reacted at this time, [Host, if you forgot, just say so! Anyway, you are thick-skinned and not afraid of embarrassment. ]
[Just wait, I'll remember! ]
