The emperor asked with great interest, "This man's handwriting is vigorous and powerful, and his words are sharp and sharp. Has he ever been educated?"
"Have you taken any exams?"
Since the Chief Censor has decided to bring this matter before the Emperor, he must have investigated the matter and must have some understanding of the people involved.
The Imperial Censor first glanced at the Marquis of Zhen'an with pride, then turned his head and slowly said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the person who wrote the letter was the number one scholar in Huai'an two years ago. In fact, many examiners at that time were optimistic about this boy, but because his sister was sick and weak, and his mother passed away, he did not participate in the subsequent examinations."
The emperor became even more interested after hearing this. Since this person's handwriting was so neat, he must not be a very evil person.
"Why is there no reference this year for such a filial person?"
The Imperial Censor said proudly: "During my interactions with this boy, I have found that he is well-mannered and well-read, and he is not like an ordinary man."
"I just found out. According to this man, he wanted to take the test this year, but his test paper was replaced by someone else..."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the civil and military officials in the court were in an uproar.
The emperor's face turned cold and he threw the jade necklace in his hand away.
"How dare you, how could you change the test paper?"
The emperor was furious. The Imperial Censor knelt down and reported: "The man said that the test paper he had originally answered disappeared while he was sleeping during the exam. Later, he heard that a young man from a noble family in the court suddenly received guidance from a god after taking the written test..."
"He suddenly became enlightened. He was a person who couldn't even remember the Four Books clearly. But he actually wrote a complete policy paper during the exam and even got an A grade. In the end, he even got a place in the top three!"
These words were simply a slap in the face of the Ministry of Personnel.
The current Minister of Personnel immediately knelt on the ground trembling and said, "I really don't know anything about this matter... I will find someone to investigate it now!"
The emperor was furious, but he also knew that the new Minister of Personnel probably didn't know about the evil deeds done by the previous Minister of Personnel.
"Go and bring this man to the palace. I want to question him!"
The emperor's words were golden, so the chief censor naturally told the royal guards the news about this man attached to the message.
Chen Jiafu, who was originally a guest at the residence of the Imperial Censor, was actually anxiously waiting for news.
Of course he knew that there must be something fishy going on as the Censor paid so much attention to his matter, or maybe he simply had a grudge against the Zhen'an Marquis' Mansion.
But he didn't care about these. He only cared about whether he could get justice for his sister in the end.
Because the Zhen'an Marquis's Mansion accused his sister of seducing the Zhen'an Marquis's son, which resulted in the son not being released, but his sister was not released either.
However, Chen Jiafu knew that the prefect of Jingzhao was a good man, so he did not put his sister in jail. Instead, he settled her in a guest room of Jingzhao Prefecture.
Although my sister's treatment was acceptable, it was still terrifying to think that my sister was always locked up in a place like Jingzhao Prefecture.
Chen Jiafu had suffered too much injustice, and he knew very well that sometimes a word from a noble, or the connections of high-ranking officials, could cause his sister to be stigmatized and sent to jail.
He tried to change all the methods, but in the end, nothing changed.
If it weren't for Jingzhao Prefecture, which was relatively fair, my sister would write to me every day to let me know she was safe.
I'm afraid Chen Jiafu has already been beaten with fifty sticks on the drum.
Chen Jiafu was waiting anxiously, but then the Censor came to his house and the people from the palace took Chen Jiafu away without saying a word.
"What exactly do you want? Are you going to take me to a deserted place to kill me?"
Chen Jiafu naturally knew that the people in the Censor's Mansion would not help him, so he could only muster up his courage and ask calmly.
"Come with us and you'll know, but there's no need to panic!"
These royal guards were directly responsible for security in the court, so they naturally knew some of the circumstances. They said this only to appease the man.
Since the emperor has already developed an interest in this man, it would be embarrassing for him to appear before the emperor in a state of fear and trepidation.
Maybe the emperor will even ask me if I have acted unfairly.
It would be better to take precautionary measures and reveal some information to this kid first.
If this kid is smart, he should naturally understand the hidden meaning of my words.
If this kid is not smart, then the guard will not owe him this favor.
Fortunately, Chen Jiafu was not a fool. He figured out the relationship after calming down a bit. Naturally, he followed the guard and left.
The emperor waited for a while before he saw a man with an imposing appearance coming to the hall led by guards.
This man is indeed handsome.
Moreover, her eyes were firm and she didn't glance around randomly. The emperor had already formed a good impression of her when they first met.
However, even though Chen Jiafu's heart shape was better than others, he was still inevitably a little nervous.
In addition, everyone in the hall was examining themselves, and no one reminded them what to do.
So Chen Jiafu's body was a little stiff for a moment, and he stood there not knowing what to say.
Zhao Ji saw this and chuckled, saying, "Now that the emperor is here, you should ask his sister how she is, so that we can see what happened!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Jiafu immediately knew what to do.
He immediately knelt on the ground, back straight, and told the story of how his sister had been humiliated.
"That day, my sister came all the way to the capital to look for me. Zhao Ji was very happy and took my sister to play on the street. My sister fell in love with a golden hairpin. Although Zhao Ji was short of money, my sister really liked it and was so sensible."
"The girl was sensible and saw that I was short of money, so she didn't want the hairpin anymore and pulled me to go out. After I went out, I settled the girl near a mask stall, and then sneaked back to the gold shop, intending to buy the hairpin for the girl as a birthday present!"
"I didn't expect that when I went out, I saw a nobleman walking towards me, accompanied by four or five servants.
Of course we didn't know this family, but when the young man saw my sister, he walked straight up to her and started talking to her.
I wanted to leave quickly with my sister, but the servant beside the nobleman pulled me away.
After all, I was no match for so many of them, so I could only watch the girl from afar and try to find a chance to sneak past her secretly."
