The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Zhou Mingwen was invited to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for tea. Next, the Ministry of Etiquette fully cooperated, and all officials who might have cheated in the imperial examinations were reported to the Metropolitan Procuratorate one by one.

The capital city is like a deep-fried pot. Although your Majesty has ordered a thorough investigation, many candidates still gather in front of the Ministry of Rites or Gongyuan, waiting for the results of the further investigation.

What Xiao Rui was worried about also happened. Sure enough, an examinee from Hangzhou Prefecture reported the Leopard, saying that he was shallow academically. How could he be on the list? So the Leopard was also summoned by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but with sufficient psychological preparation, the Leopard went in without any fear.

Xiao Rui has already greeted Hao Yun and Song Ci. It is not difficult to save the Leopard. According to Xiao Rui’s calculations, only the six candidates for cheating can be found at the end of the investigation. Therefore, the possibility of abolishing the fame of the imperial examination is unlikely. Great, as for Zhou Mingwen, hey, you don’t need to guess the ending.

In the next two days, the fraud case was the top priority in the capital, gathering everyone's attention.

However, Xiao Rui had shifted his focus, and took a carriage with Jia Xu and Guo Jia to Limin Street, Xicheng District, and stopped at a block. Li Yuanfang, who was driving, was very familiar with this place. Walking down the street, it was the entrance of Wei Dabao's private vault.

Inside the carriage, Jia Xu lifted the curtain of the car, and the three also looked at the house where Wei Dabao’s private vault was located. After a while, they put it down. Xiao Rui asked: "Mr. Wenhe, you have locked the treasure entrance according to the map of Ink Treasure. ,right here?"

Jia Xu nodded and said: "Yes! Although time has passed too long, I found three ancient ruins in the capital. After determining the location of the Mozang map, I combined the current capital map to finally determine the location. ."

"Isn't your Highness saying that to go to Wei Dabao's private vault, you need to go through a corridor. That corridor is old and not privately built by Wei Dabao. Does it have something to do with Mozang?" Guo Jia reminded.

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "That corridor is not long. It only connects two houses. It feels weird. If it really has something to do with Mozang, it must not be an ordinary passage. There are other tricks. Let Li Yuanfang at night. We don't want to go down to investigate the situation. Our vault has been moved cleanly, and Wei Dabao is likely to send someone to monitor here secretly. We shouldn't show up."

"Good!" Jia Xu and Guo Jia nodded, then ordered Li Yuanfang to drive home.

After the curfew.

Li Yuanfang sneaked here in a night clothes, and entered the corridor again. This time, he should observe the corridor carefully.

This corridor made of large blue stones was only two meters high and more than one meter wide. The space was a bit narrow. When the silver in the box was taken away last time, Li Kui almost got stuck in the corridor.

Li Yuanfang checked the surroundings carefully, and he could judge that there was no problem with the entrances and exits on both sides, so if there was a problem, it would be on this 40- to 50-meter-long corridor.

He struck the bluestone with a heavy voice, indicating that the back of the bluestone is not empty. Of course, it is also possible that the bluestone is big and thick. Li Yuanfang also felt that there was a problem with this corridor. The mottled marks on the large bluestone showed that it was very old and definitely surpassed the history of the founding of Daxia. Daxia was founded more than five hundred years ago, and the country was destroyed by Jiang. The previous is the era of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, so looking at the traces, it is very likely that the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were built.

Li Yuanfang inspected the large bluestones in the corridor one by one, not letting go up, down, left, and right. After spending more than an hour, he finally noticed the slight difference!

In the middle of the tunnel, the sound of two bluestones striking was crisper than the others. Although the crispness was very slight, it was still noticed by Li Yuanfang. In addition, the two bluestones were sinking half a penny higher than the other bluestones around, which further verified Li Yuanfang's guess.

However, he tried to hit hard, kick hard, and even chop with a knife, but the two bluestones did not move.

The bluestone that is half a meter long and wide is not too thick. If it is really a treasure entrance, it is still difficult to pry open with manpower, unless it is specially excavated with tools or directly exploded with gunpowder.

Li Yuanfang checked other large bluestones to make sure that he did not lose other important clues before leaving here immediately.

Returning to the Palace of King Xian, Li Yuanfang told Xiao Rui of his discovery. Xiao Rui, Jia Xu and Guo Jia nodded, and it seemed that the speculation came true, and the treasure of the ink store was indeed under the tunnel.

"It's not a problem to send a confidant to dig it, I'm afraid it can't be completed in a day or two. If Wei Dabao sends someone to monitor there, the leaked whereabouts will not be beautiful." Jia Xu said.

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Then don't rush to open the Mozang. I will leave Beijing in the next few days. Let the Mozang matter be put aside for now. When we get rid of Wei Dabao in the future, I can rest assured."

Jia Xu and Guo Jia naturally have no objection.

In fact, as Xiao Rui guessed, Wei Dabao did plant a spy in the East Factory nearby. Although it was known that King Chu had stolen his own money, he also retaliated, but how could this satisfy Wei Dabao? But it's all his hard work. Therefore, he arranged for spies to monitor secretly, and if someone revisited the same place, he would retaliate.

If you can't get revenge against King Chu, then get revenge on those who took away their talents!

At this time, Xiao Rui thought of Wu Yazi, and said: "The Yang organization wants the ink box, saying that it will give the king a meeting ceremony these few days. It has been a few days, and it is still too late in the future, and there is no sign of it. Could it be the other party? Those who don't want to be soft, plan to grab it hard?"

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Maybe it was because the meeting ceremony was not well prepared, so it was delayed. The Yang organization was born out of Mo Yang, and it is bound to win the Mo Yang box. They also understand that it is more difficult to grab it, and they still want to fight with His Royal Highness. Cooperation, you will definitely not do stupid things. I believe that the longer the delay, the richer the meeting gifts."

"I think so too! And the advantages of wooing the Yang organization outweigh the disadvantages, so you can make a good plan." Guo Jia also smiled.

Xiao Rui said, "Mr. Wenhe, after Feng Xiao and I leave Beijing, you will be responsible for everything in the capital, and I will trouble you."

Jia Xu hurriedly said: "Your Highness’s words have broken me. It is my honor to be valued by His Highness. I stay in the capital without wind and rain or bumps. His Highness and Fengxiao and Yuanfang travel a long distance. It is hard work. ."

After a pause, Jia Xu bowed to Guo Jia and said, "Fengxiao, you must take good care of your Highness!"

Guo Jia helped Jia Xu up and said, "Mr. Wenhe, please get up soon. Do you and I still pay this gift?"

The two kept this action and smiled at each other.

Xiao Rui blinked, and I fucked, did I find any bad signs!

I hope that these two people cherish each other, not heart-to-heart.

"Why does your Highness look like this?" Jia Xu asked curiously when he got up, seeing Xiao Rui's expression.

Xiao Rui hurriedly tossed off his thoughts, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, I just made a joke in my mind."

Jia Xu nodded and did not ask more: "According to the speed of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it is estimated that there will be results tomorrow. They cannot delay the time for too long. Camping in front of the Gongyuan Gate, several Juren actually sounded the Dengwen Drum. If you want to sue the imperial court, you must give the candidates an explanation early."

Guo Jiadao: "I guess, tomorrow morning, the DPRK will discuss this matter!"

"Then I will have to go to the morning again tomorrow. Although I don't want to get up, it's a funny thing to see Xiao Yiheng's sad expression, haha..." Xiao Rui couldn't help laughing.

In this way, time came the next morning.

Xiao Rui came to Wumen, and the early days of the past few days were extremely dull because of the imperial examination fraud.

Xiao Yiheng seemed very lonely, and he had broken his heart in the past few days. Although Zhou Mingwen firmly refused to admit that the test questions were leaked, the facts are a foregone conclusion, and all the evidence points to his son. His denials are not helpful.

The two uncles were dead, and the mainstay supporting him collapsed, even if he was backed by his grandfather’s Zhou Mansion, Li Mingde’s Li Mansion, Bai Huhou, and his mother, but the forces collapsed so fast that Xiao Yiheng felt a deep chill. He looked around, but was at a loss to find his opponent.

This time, even though Xiao Lie and Xiao Jing moved the hands, Xiao Yiheng felt that there was a terrifying black hand in secret, manipulating all this, making him feel deeply afraid.

Last night, he went to meet with Xi Guogong, the former cabinet scholar and grandfather of the official department, and solemnly warned him: From then on, keep a low profile and stop any plan or action!

If it was before the change, Xiao Yiheng would listen, but he would not necessarily follow suit, because his advantage is far superior to others, why not take advantage of it?

But now, he has listened to his grandfather's warning, and will definitely keep a low profile!

Thinking of the current situation, Xiao Yiheng sighed, and when he inadvertently scanned Xiao Lie and Xiao Jing, they both smiled triumphantly, and even gave himself a bright smile.

Damn it! Two beasts!

Just after cursing, Xiao Yiheng snorted and got up cruelly, even cursing himself.

Soon, the drums sounded, and hundreds of civil and military officials entered the dynasty.

Emperor Xia stepped onto the sun and entered the hall. With Hai Dafu's "Early play if something happens, retreat if nothing happened", the early dynasty officially began.

The eyes of the other civil and military officials all looked at the Zuodu Yushidu boy, they all heard about it, and the dynasty will not be peaceful today.

Sure enough, Juvenile Du stepped out, Qing Yue Chong of Dali Temple and Zuo Shi Lang Song Ci of the Xing Department then stepped out, saw Du Juvenile taking out the memorial from the wide cuffs, holding them up with both hands, and respectfully saying: "My Majesty, the imperial examination fraud case has been tried. After a thorough investigation, all the persons involved in the case were arrested! Please let me know!"

Hai Dafu immediately went down to submit the memorial, and Xia Huang took it, opened it and took a closer look, and then said: "In such a short period of time, the investigation is clear, and the context of the case is clear. It is very good! I believe all the Aiqings are also curious. Well, Master Du, it's up to you to state it again in the morning!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Du Shunen took the order, and then said: "My sires, after a joint investigation by the three divisions, all the officials who participated in the imperial examinations were strictly investigated, from the officials who entered the Gongyuan to search the body, and then to the collection of papers and seals. The examiners in the links of, copying, and scoring conducted investigations one by one, and finally identified and arrested six examinees who participated in the fraud. After interrogation, the six people confessed to the fraud, and found undestroyed question books from the homes of three of them. According to the actual recruitment of the six people, their question book was purchased from Zhou Xingchen, the son of Zhou Mingwen, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites! The six people got the question book and did not know which questions were the official examination questions, so they paid the money to hire the reading and writing institute Of the students did the questions and memorized all the contents of the questions, and did not use methods such as entrainment, private possession, etc. to bring them into the tribute courtyard!"

"And the prisoner Zhou Xingchen denied his crime at first, but finally the facts lay before his eyes. He had to confess that he had stolen the title book of his father, the right assistant minister Zhou Mingwen, and sold it. During the investigation, it was found that Zhou Mingwen from the ceremony department did not directly Participated in a fraud case, but he did not keep the question book strictly, which caused the question book to be stolen, and his family was not strictly governed, causing his son to commit such crimes!"

"The above is the entire process of the imperial examination fraud case. According to the Daxia law, the six people involved in the fraud need to be dismissed from their fame. They wear a three-month display with a stick of 100, and then send them to the frontier to serve as the army! And Zhou Xingchen stole it. , The sale of the test booklet is serious, and if you know the law and break the law, you will be executed in accordance with the Daxia law! As for Zhou Mingwen, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, he will be investigated and dealt with according to the law and the staff is 100!"

After the young man Du finished speaking, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Although the civil and military officials heard the wind, they couldn't help but sigh at this time, Zhou Mingwen was completely finished.

Xiao Yiheng sighed and closed his eyes.

Emperor Xia put down the memorial, and then asked: "Master Du has already said it very clearly. Everyone, Aiqing and Prince, do you have any objections?"

Who dares to object?

The civil and military officials secretly returned their sights, waiting for Xiao Yiheng's movement.

But Xiao Yiheng always closed his eyes, remembering to be low-key, and never going out!

When Xia Huang saw Xiao Yiheng's attitude, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a satisfied look. This is a lesson. It seems that he has learned it. If there is a mistake, there must be a gain.

Xia Huang continued: "If this is the case, please follow the results of the three-secretary trial and inform the world! In addition, the six-person fraud will be cancelled, and the candidates who fail later will make up for it. We must calm the candidates' emotions."

"Yes!" The civil and military officials hurriedly handed over.

Next, several officials briefly reported a few things, and the morning was over.

When they left the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Xiao Lie and Xiao Jing looked like victors, and they were no different.

Xiao Yiheng walked in a low-key manner, with no expression of anger or annoyance on his face, he was very calm. This surprised Xiao Rui, because the last time his uncle Zhou Ming resigned, he was so angry that he was now expressionless. Could it be that he was stimulated and his heart suddenly became stronger?

If so~www.wuxiahere.com~ it would be a bit self-defeating.

However, Xiao Rui was surprised. There is an old saying that says it well: Jiangshan is easy to change, and its nature is difficult to change. If you want to change your nature, you will not change without experiencing an extremely serious event. Zhou Mingwen was The dismissal and investigation is not an extremely serious matter for Xiao Yiheng.

Xiao Rui was also about to leave the palace after hanging from the crowd, but was suddenly stopped by an eunuch.

"His Majesty, please, please move to the Hall of Heart Cultivation." The servant **** said.

Xiao Rui was taken aback and asked, "Do you know what happened?"

After speaking, Xiao Rui concealed him a silver coin.

The servant **** said embarrassingly: "The villain doesn't know."

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Okay, this king will go quickly."

Your Majesty summoned himself suddenly. Could it be that he noticed something?

No way!
