After divorcing my ex-husband, I became the princess of the county

After Zhao Heng was invited into the Ganlu Hall by his servants, his whole body was wet. He looked at Emperor Jing Yuan, who had a very bad complexion, and knelt down and said, "Uncle Huang."

Emperor Jing Yuan was extremely annoyed and said: "I really owed you in my previous life, you kneel down to Zichen Hall! Don't get caught in the rain again."

Zhao Heng said: "Oh!"

Emperor Jing Yuan said again: "Take a hot bath first, change your wet clothes before kneeling!"

"Here."

Emperor Jing Yuan shook his hands, and ordered Zhao Heng to back down with a look of disgust.

Zhao Heng changed his body and knelt in the Zichen Palace, and became a little groggy.

I didn't sleep well last night, and I knelt under the sun for a day without eating, and it was raining for almost an hour, even my iron body couldn't stop it, so Zhao Heng closed his eyes past.

When he opened his eyes, he only felt a sharp pain in his knees, and it was already bright outside.

Listening to the ringing of the bell outside, it was already three quarters of Maozheng, and it was almost time to go to court.

Zhao Heng was in pain all over his body. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he saw Emperor Jing Yuan and a group of ministers coming to the hall, with King Jin and Sun Ke beside him.

Zhao Heng stared fiercely at King Jin and Sun Ke.

Emperor Jing Yuan said to Zhao Heng angrily, "Get out and kneel."

"Oh."

Zhao Heng was so obedient that he moved outside and knelt down.

Zhao Heng knelt outside the Zichen Hall, his stomach ached from hunger, his head hurt, his throat hurt, his knee hurt, he couldn't tell which hurt more for a moment.

The originally clear sky was covered with overcast clouds, and there was a drizzle in the sky again.

Zhao Heng looked into the hall, wondering whether Uncle Huang could let Lu Wanzhi go after the early discussion.

……

In the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Shen Luozhi came to the prison early in the morning, saw that Lu Wanzhi had woken up and said, "Wanzhi!"

Seeing that it was Shen Luozhi, Lu Wanzhi said, "Why did you come here so early in the morning?"

Shen Luozhi said to Lu Wanzhi: "Wanzhi, I searched all over Chang'an last night, looking for students who have taken the Chang'an state examination for the past three years to write blood books.

King Jin encouraged the literati who failed the rankings, trying to make His Majesty feel that the justice of the imperial examinations should not be desecrated, let alone that women should not disguise themselves as men.

This time, the whole length of An Wenren is willing, and you will be fine. "

Lu Wanzhi said, "Didn't it rain heavily last night? It sounded like there was thunder, you..."

Lu Wanzhi didn't sleep much at night, she was worried that Zhao Heng would kneel outside the palace in the rain all night, she looked down and saw Shen Luozhi's shoes were still wet.

"Your shoes are still wet?"

Shen Luozhi said: "It's okay, I want to enter the palace to present this petition to His Majesty, please help me introduce someone who can take me into the palace."

Lu Wanzhi said: "I'll help you write a letter to His Royal Highness, Luo Zhi, I can't repay your great kindness this time."

Shen Luozhi smiled at Lu Wanzhi and said, "I never thought about your repayment, as long as you are well."

After Shen Luozhi left, Lu Wanzhi was restless. She thought about the heavy rain last night, that little idiot Zhao Heng really knelt in the rain all night, right?

……

Shen Luozhi went to the East Palace and presented the letter from Lu Wanzhi to His Highness the Crown Prince.

The prince said to Shen Luozhi: "I'll let someone take you to the Zichen Palace."

When Shen Luozhi arrived at the gate of Zichen Hall, he saw Zhao Heng kneeling in the drizzle.

One autumn rain and one cold, the continuous drizzle at this moment can almost catch up with the cold in late autumn.

Seeing Zhao Heng who was kneeling on the ground, Shen Luozhi stepped forward and said, "Little Duke, why are you kneeling here?"

Zhao Heng looked up at Shen Luozhi and said, "Of course it is to save Zhizhi. Whenever Uncle Huang releases Zhizhi, I will get up."

Seeing Zhao Heng in front of him, Shen Luozhi shook his head and said: "Zhao Heng, you are still so naive and willful, ask yourself if you are really worthy of Wanzhi? What's the use of you kneeling like this? Lu Wanzhi cannot be saved!"

Zhao Heng said: "It's always more useful than you."

Shen Luozhi said: "I already have a way to save Wanzhi."

Zhao Heng frowned and looked at Shen Luozhi, "What can you do?"

Shen Luozhi said to Zhao Heng: "Last time I made a bet with you, but you didn't want to bet, now we have another bet, if I can keep Wanzhi safe later, you can't pester Wanzhi anymore. "

Zhao Heng said: "Who wants to make this bet with you?"

Shen Luozhi said: "Zhao Heng, you can't protect Wanzhi at all, just like now that Wanzhi is in trouble, besides kneeling down and crying like a child, what other options do you have? You are not worthy to marry Lu Wanzhi at all."

Zhao Heng remained silent, Shen Luozhi was right, but now he is really incompetent, as the king of the royal family, he can't save Lu Wanzhi.

Inside Zichen Palace.

Emperor Jing Yuan was thinking about how not to hurt those examinees, and how to ensure that no one would dare to repeat the same mistakes and let Lu Wanzhi go, when he heard his servant come to report to the son of Duke Zhen Guo to see him.

Emperor Jing Yuan said: "Xuan."

When Shen Luozhi entered, he knelt down in front of Emperor Jing Yuan, and presented a letter of petition: "Your Majesty, this is the blood letter of more than 300 candidates who have waited for the Spring and Autumn Exams in the past three years to let Lu Wanzhi go.

Your Majesty, the reason why Lu Wanzhi asked Xie Jin to disguise herself as a man is really justifiable, it is all because women cannot participate in the scientific examination.

Xie Jin's daughter can be ranked among the top three, which shows that her daughter's family is not weaker than men.

If His Majesty treats Xie Jin and Lu Wanzhi, it will only make people think that I, a Dasheng imperial examination candidate, can't tolerate even a little girl.

It is because the literati in Chang'an are willing to compete with female candidates, not because they are different from men and women, that they took the lives of talented women. "

King Jin said from the side: "Shizi Shen, Lu Wanzhi has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Shen Luozhi said to His Majesty: "Your Majesty, although it is a crime of deceiving the emperor, it is also the helplessness of women. How many talented women in this world are trapped in the back house.

Your Majesty is the majesty of the men in the world, and the majesty of the girls in the world. I hope that your majesty will forgive Lu Wanzhi and Xie Jin for the sake of the petition and the scientific examination of women's ability to disguise themselves as men! "

Emperor Jing Yuan originally wanted to forgive Lu Wanzhi's innocence, so Shen Luozhi walked up to this step.

Emperor Jing Yuan said: "Shen Shizi is young, so what he said is very reasonable. How can the Dasheng imperial examination not even accommodate a little girl? If Lu Wanzhi and Xie Jin's intentions are not bad, forgive them for their innocence, but If I commit another crime, I will not forgive you."

Shen Luozhi heaved a sigh of relief, and kowtowed in thanks.

King Jin and Sun Ke held hands tightly. Sun Ke couldn't believe that Lu Wanzhi could still escape this time?

Emperor Jing Yuan was worried about the Queen's condition, so he asked everyone to retreat, and then went to Ganlu Palace.

Shen Luozhi walked up to Zhao Heng, and said to Zhao Heng: "Get up, Your Majesty has promised to release Lu Wanzhi."

Zhao Heng didn't dare to believe it, "Really?"

Shen Luozhi looked at Zhao Heng and said: "How dare I talk nonsense about this matter? Zhao Heng, you should give up Lu Wanzhi, you have also seen that when Lu Wanzhi encounters difficulties, you simply cannot protect her."

Zhao Heng stood up enduring the pain in his knees and said, "Then can you protect her again? Everyone went to the Lu family to propose marriage the day before yesterday, but you were not alone. You can't even protect Lu Wanzhi at home!"

Shen Luozhi said: "I have already told my grandfather that I am willing to give up my position as the eldest son and marry Lu Wanzhi as my wife. As for my mother, I will never let her bully Lu Wanzhi in the slightest. I can protect Wanzhi. !"

Hearing this, Zhao Heng felt his headache getting worse, staggered two steps, and fell dizzily into Shen Luozhi's arms...
