Chapter 451 Luo Jingfeng takes action

Minister Shao was stunned. He didn't expect that the tough Bachelor Han would have to tell the truth in front of Luo Jingfeng.

Qin Ye's Huiyuanlang was saved.

However, Tao Jingyu is not the fourth place...

Minister Shao lowered his head even more.

He silently told himself in his heart: It's enough, this is enough, Qin Ye has already got the first place that belongs to him, and got the fairness that belongs to him; although Tao Jingyu is not the real fourth place, he is still in the top fifteen, but the ranking is slightly higher, and in the future when he enters the officialdom, he will have to start from the seventh rank.

Now this result is already fair, and besides that, all students’ grades are correct.

Luo Jingfeng felt much more comfortable with the submission of Han Dashi. He snorted and was about to throw the prepared memorial on the ground when his eldest nephew quietly pulled his clothes.

He leaned forward, tilted his head and asked, "Any other questions?"

This action shocked both examiners.

Who is the young boy in front of me?

How could the powerful Duke of Protectorate lower his head and listen to him so patiently?

The Han University student was also very nervous.

The first thing Luo Jingfeng came in was about Qin Ye. Could it be that a flood had washed away the Dragon King Temple, and Qin Ye himself had come to attack with the Duke of Protector of the Country?

Zong Jincheng had tried his best to reduce his presence, but when he saw that Luo Jingfeng didn't notice anything unusual, he pointed at Tao Jingyu's test paper and complained in a low voice: "This person's policy essay doesn't look like he can get fourth place."

Tao Jingyu's policy paper was not bad, but it was definitely not as good as those written by He Zheng and others. Because of the previous incident of replacing Qin Ye's grades, Zong Jincheng felt that something was not right here.

"Let me see." Luo Jingfeng looked through the test paper carefully again.

The Duke of Protectorate was indeed well-read, but he had never taken the imperial examination. He could only see particularly good policy essays, such as Qin Ye's, but could not make an accurate estimate of Tao Jingyu's level.

However, since the eldest nephew thought there was a problem, the cat must be sick of him. He gave them a cold look, and the two people kneeling on the ground were so scared that they trembled.

Luo Jingfeng took the test paper in one hand and slammed it heavily on the table. The force was so strong that it directly collapsed the pure wooden table. It can be seen how angry he was.

A fierce question came from above: "Minister Shao, tell me, apart from Qin Ye, what other injustices were there in this year's imperial examination?"

Minister Shao didn't expect that Prince Yan would point directly at him. Just when he wanted to turn his head to see if Grand Scholar Han had any instructions, Luo Jingfeng threw a teacup at him. He was so scared that he confessed everything!

"Yes! Yes! It's Tao Jingyu. He is not ranked fourth at all, but fifteenth! It was... it was the scholar of Han University who asked to change it. He said that a poor student was moved in, and the two sons of the clan might not be convinced, so Tao Jingyu from the Duke of Ying's Mansion was selected as the first place."

Zong Jincheng was stunned when he heard this.

He never thought about it, it was because of this reason, because he and his brother had high status, so the poor students behind them had no right to suppress them?

What about Qin Ye?

Qin Ye was almost wiped out from the first place, not because of his lack of strength, but because his status was not as high as theirs?

The little devil had never felt so angry since he grew up. He had worked hard for three years and thought about how to defeat Qin Ye every day. But the reason these people asked him to defeat Qin Ye was not because he was better than Qin Ye in strategy, but because his father had a higher official position than Lord Qin...

So what is the point of his three years of hard work?

Even if he couldn't read a single word, would these people still give him the top grade just because of his father's status?

Zong Jincheng became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, and he directly rebuked them, "You are going too far! The imperial examination is a fair competition, and you are insulting the imperial examination and millions of students!"

Minister Shao felt bitter.

He had thought so, but he was powerless and his words carried no weight. Even if he gambled on the black veil hat, it would not solve the problem. He had long given up the ambition of being the first to take action.

Seeing that Luo Jingfeng had remained silent, Minister Shao became more and more panicked. He was afraid that the blame would fall on him in the end, so he quickly added: "Please spare my life, Duke. This is my first time as an examiner, and I am following the instructions of the Master of Han. I... I dare not disobey!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Jingfeng turned his attention to the scholar from Han University.

As an official of the second rank, he was knowledgeable and loved by people in the court and the country. But who would have known that this most unfair result was caused by him.

"Han Pei, you are in charge of supervising the imperial examinations, but you took the lead in cheating. With such behavior, how can you still have the face to wear this second-rank official robe?" Luo Jingfeng said coldly, "After correcting the ranking of the imperial examinations, you can return home on your own initiative and don't waste my time."

Minister Shao's head had already dropped to the ground.

Requesting to return home...that means Han University Bachelor's degree requires resignation.

It took Han Dashi more than ten years to get promoted to a second-rank official position. Now he is only in his early forties, which is the time for him to make great achievements in the officialdom.

But this was the notoriously vicious Luo Jingfeng. It was already a mercy of Luo Jingfeng to ask him to resign. Otherwise, once this evil spirit had murderous intentions, it would be difficult for Han Dashi to escape unscathed.

Han Pei lowered his head in silence. After a while, he slowly raised his head and looked directly at Luo Jingfeng and said, "Duke Huguo, as you said, I can resign. But today, Tao Jingyu's ranking in the imperial examination cannot be changed. Even if he is not given a first place, the worst he can get is fourth place, the first place in the second class!"

Minister Shao looked up in shock.

I cursed several times in my heart.

Han Daxue Bachelor, is he... is he crazy?

Luo Jingfeng was in a rare good temper after saying so much, but he didn't do as he was told and even openly contradicted him. Wasn't he just asking for death?

Sure enough, the next second, Luo Jingfeng became angry.

The hot-tempered Lord Protector of the State stood up and kicked Han Pei hard.

He kicked Han Pei hard, knocking him to the ground. He spat out blood on the spot: "Puff..."

Luo Jingfeng looked down at him with a stern look in his eyes and said in a stern voice: "Who do you think you are? How dare you disobey me?"

He was used to everyone bowing down to him.

Suddenly someone appeared who dared to challenge his majesty. He was simply fed up with life.

Zong Jincheng was also shocked by this sudden change. He didn't expect his uncle to start fighting as soon as he said so. He rushed over and grabbed Luo Jingfeng, saying, "Calm down, calm down."

If he didn't persuade him, he was afraid that Luo Jingfeng would tear down the Ministry of Rites in a fit of rage.

Minister Shao was so frightened that he almost fainted.

But he didn't even dare to utter a word, let alone say any words of advice.

Han Pei coughed a few times, feeling like he was about to cough out his lungs. He struggled to raise his head and said with difficulty: "I have never had any personal relationship with the Duke of Ying. Do you think I really want to promote a nobleman? Luo Jingfeng, I tell you, this is the emperor's intention. The emperor wants Tao Jingyu to get good grades! The king has an order, and as a minister... do you dare not listen? Do I dare not listen?"
