Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 232 The Holy Mirror!

What the old matriarch said was so impassioned that the civil and military officials standing on both sides of the hall couldn't help being moved by it, and even the emperor in the big chair saw a thin layer of anger on his face.

Seeing this, Mo Jingyao slapped the armrest of the seat suddenly, and the two Gongsheng students under the stage turned pale from the anger of the emperor, and knelt on the ground one after another. He turned his eyes to Mo Shucheng, with a smile on his face. His bloodshot pupils surged with waves.

"Cheng'er, what's going on here?" Emperor Yunjing asked coldly, "This is the spring test you presided over, and this is the tribute you selected?"

"My son... my son..." Mo Shucheng's spine felt chills, and he knelt down on the ground with a "plop". He was stared at by him panicked, and he was incoherent for a while, "This is... no, this is It's not...Father, my son-"

"I can't even understand a sentence, what's the use of keeping a prince like you?" The angry emperor flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, then raised his jaw slightly, and looked at the two trembling Gongsheng students, "Do you have any?" What do you want to say?"

"Grass, grass people, this..." Bao Hui was completely flustered, unable to utter a few words.

Only now did he suddenly realize that what he had promised to the Anping Hou Mansion earlier was a serious crime of beheading.

In the panic, his brain went blank for a moment, and he subconsciously wanted to bring Zhu Sheng and the others to the stage: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty's lesson, what the grassroots did is because of..."

"You scholar, in front of the Holy Majesty, how can you talk nonsense, before blurting out everything, you must think about it." Standing in the queue of civil servants, An Ping Hou said softly, his long and narrow brown eyes were full of darkness.

"Be careful what you say wrong, and commit the crime of deceiving the emperor again." Zhu Sheng raised his eyebrows and raised his hands at the emperor on the high platform, "At that time, even if His Majesty is kind and willing to spare your life, I will Waiting for the courtiers will not let you go!"

"This, this, deceiving the king..." Bao Hui trembled all over, he raised his head in a daze, and met Anping Hou's eyes full of murderous intent and warning, and his emptied mind suddenly came to his senses.

That's right, that's right, the people in the Hou's Mansion told them before that if the matter is revealed, all the blame must be placed on the Fourth Highness.

In this way, even if the two of them were sentenced to death by the Holy Majesty and lost their heads, they would give their parents, wife and children far away in their hometown a sum of burial expenses that would be enough for the old man to live comfortably in his old age.

But if they dare to confess the Hou Mansion and Lord Hou...

Then their parents, relatives and friends will lose their lives in an instant.

Thinking of this, Bao Hui's complexion couldn't help turning pale. Even if the incident happened today, even if he was lucky enough to save his life, his official career would be ruined for the rest of his life, but his son was different.

He is only three years old this year, just at the age of learning to speak, and he is clever and cute. He will definitely be much more promising than him when he grows up.

It doesn't matter if he dies, but his wife, children and parents are all innocent, and he can clearly distinguish between the death of one person or the death of the whole family.

Bao Hui gritted his teeth. He tried his best to restrain the trembling all over his body, as if he had made great determination: "Q, Qi, Your Majesty, before the start of the examination, Cao Min presented the public paper to His Highness the Fourth Highness."

"The two of us thought of a way, and emptied the scroll of the public paper, and put ten thousand taels of silver bills in it. His Highness accepted the money from the grass-roots, and then sent someone to send over the topic of the meeting."

"Cao Min got the question, revised the answer sheet several times in advance, and only passed the examination room after memorizing the whole text. In addition, His Highness had a lot of help from the side, so he was successfully selected for the palace examination."

"Please also ask the Holy Master to enlighten me!" Bao Hui said, his teeth were already trembling at this point.

He kowtowed deeply towards the high platform, this action woke up Lu Renjia, who had been stunned for a long time, and quickly followed him and kowtowed in agreement: "Yes, yes, yes, yes!"

"It was His Highness who accepted the bribes from the grassroots, and the two of us were able to pass the entrance examination for Gongsheng!"

Lu Renjia crawled and rolled, and reluctantly took two steps forward, as if he wanted to grab Mo Shucheng's sleeve: "Your Highness, Fourth Highness, all of Caomin's wealth has long been entrusted to you, you can't give up Us!"

"Quickly explain to His Majesty that you took bribes and let us be selected—the Caomin don't want to die, Your Highness, save the Caomin, Your Highness!"

He seemed to be terrified, with snot and tears, and a lot of sticky things muddied his face. Seeing that he still wanted to go to the high platform, the eunuchs in the temple hurried over and hurriedly pushed him down. In place.

But Lu Renjia obviously did not give up, even though he was restrained, he still struggled to ask Mo Shucheng for help: "Your Highness, you can't, Your Highness..."

"Fourth, what do you say?" Emperor Yunjing pinched the armrest with one hand, and slowly pointed his fingertips at the faucet on the armrest. He didn't turn his head when he asked this question, but his voice seemed to be trying to suppress the overwhelming anger.

Mo Shucheng, who was named, suddenly woke up like a dream. When those two confessed him just now, he felt that the whole world was disillusioned.

It is true that he received the public document and got ten thousand taels of bribe money, but he was not the only one who received the money, why didn't they confess to Chao Ling? !
——They were the first to look for, so it should be Chao Ling!
"Here, father, I beseech father to learn from you. It is true that my minister accepted the public scroll of the two of them, and indeed found the bribe money in that scroll, but that scroll was obtained from Lord Shangshu by a counselor under my disciple!"

"It's him, it's Mr. Chao who persuaded Si Nian to understand him, and Xie Sinian came to persuade his son again!" Mo Shucheng hurriedly confessed to Chao Ling, shaking off all the things he had done in the past few months.

"Father, you know the weight of my son, you know it best in your heart. If you have the guts to accept bribes, you are already online, so how dare you pass on any topic that will be tried?"

"Furthermore, Erchen is not the only one who reviewed the papers this year. Master Chao read them first, and Erchen made random corrections based on his opinions!"

"Father, when I first saw the public documents of these two people, I really wanted to seek talents, but I never dared to reveal to them that I would try the test questions!"

"My son is wrong to do this, but Mr. Chao is not innocent, please ask father to investigate!" Mo Shucheng leaned over and made a big gift, but Emperor Yunjing was unmoved by it.

He raised his eyes to look at Chao Ling who was standing behind the old matriarch, and a barely perceptible sneer flashed across his eyes: "Chao Aiqing, do you have something to defend?"

"Your Majesty, my humble ministers are terrified." Chao Ling knelt down and cupped his hands, pretending to be panicked, "Your Majesty, the Fourth Highness is the king, and the humble ministers are the ministers."

"The emperor let the minister die, and the minister has to die, let alone just asking a small policy test question?"

"My minister thought that His Highness's trip was to mark the papers for the exam, so he didn't have any suspicions. How could he be in order to reveal the exam questions to others?" Chao Ling said sincerely.

"What's more, the Ministry of Rites has presided over the spring test for many years. When did such a mistake happen? I hope the Holy Spirit will learn from it."

The two parties insisted on their own words, and Lu Renjia in the audience was crying again and again. Emperor Yun Jing was so quarreled that his brain ached. Liao Zhen, who had been silent for a long time, saw this and sneered and rolled his eyes:
"Framing the prince of the Tian family is a serious crime that should be punished by the nine clans. There is no evidence for the words, what evidence can the two of you come up with?"

　Mo Jingyao: Mingjian, Mingjian, I am tired of hearing this word, change it quickly
　　I declare that the darkest person in the audience is the old emperor!
