Chapter 25

The next day, finally came the day of the hospital examination.In the palace hall, there are strict barriers, blue brick pavement, flower stone steps, and white jade railings. The old emperor is sitting on the dragon chair on the top jade step, with a serious expression, not angry but mighty.Behind him are the concubines with high status in the harem.Sima Heng and other princes sat on the second jade step.The third jade steps are full of prestigious ministers, and below the third jade step is a flat hall, where some ministers and their families with lower status are seated.There is still a vacant seat on the side of the main hall, which is for the girls' courtyard to try out.

"The servant's daughter, Wu Qinglian...the cabinet minister's daughter, Hu Wanyi..." The sleek eunuch held a piece of paper in his hand, and his slightly female voice resounded through the hall. "Censor's Daughter, He Bingxuan!" The voice did not disappear, and a graceful lady was walking towards the entrance of the main hall, her eye sockets were no longer bruised as yesterday, and she was full of energy.

"Shangshu's daughter, Wen Zhiyuan." The one who came in was the Shangshu's daughter who bullied He Bingxuan the worst yesterday.Her expression was no longer as arrogant as yesterday, she pretended to be a lady, and stepped forward cautiously, but those eyes betrayed her essence.She stood beside He Bingxuan, her eyes kept projecting arrogance towards He Bingxuan.Her father will send her to the palace later, if the emperor takes a fancy to her, she will fly on a branch and become a phoenix.Sima Heng captured this scene, and there was a trace of sarcasm in his eyes that was hard to detect.

"Prime Minister's daughter, Ning Mengyun." A dignified woman stepped forward, blessed her body slightly, with the appearance of a good courtier and a good lady.Ning Xiangye who was beside him had a kind smile on his face, stroking his beard as always, looking like my daughter is the champion.

After a while, the eunuch had finished reading the names in the roster.The emperor nodded slightly, but the serious Longyan still did not smile, "Then let's begin!" The emperor announced with great enthusiasm.

"Wait!" The corner of Sima Heng's mouth curled into a smile, which captured the hearts of all the girls in the hall in an instant. "What's the matter with my nephew?" The emperor looked at Sima Heng with condensed eyes. "There's one more person who didn't play!" Sima Heng raised his eyebrows slightly. "Oh? Then please!"

After half a moment, a gorgeous woman dressed in purple walked in slowly, with beautiful eyes and a faint smile, glamorous yet dignified.The hem of the purple dress followed her small steps, creating circles of ripples.

No one in the hall was unmoved, everyone's eyes showed a hint of surprise, Sima Heng's eyes showed a strange color, he didn't expect her to look so good in clothes.

"Pa" With a crisp sound, everyone's minds returned.The jade cup in Ning Xiangye's hand fell to the ground and snapped into two, and the other half of the jade cup rolled down the stairs.There was a trace of displeasure on the emperor's face, Master Ning's back suddenly felt cold, she couldn't say it, so what. . .What an ignorant girl!As a result, the cup in my hand fell off. You must know that smashing the cup in front of the Holy One is disrespectful, and you will lose your head!

Ning Xiangye knelt down on the ground with a "plop", desperately said: "Damn the old minister, damn the old minister!" All the ministers focused on Ning Lianzi, thinking about who this young lady who had not met yet made Ning Xiang Grandpa has such a big reaction.

Ning Xiangye was still kneeling on the ground, begging for mercy.The eldest prince next to him couldn't sit still anymore, and knelt down on the ground and said, "Father, Xiangye was also careless. Father, please forgive Xiangye!" of.The emperor's face calmed down a little, and he said: "This... Ning Xiangye is also a veteran of the two dynasties, and he has worked hard. If you miss his old love, forget it!"

"Father, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!" The second prince, wearing a prince's eight-dragon robe embroidered with dragon patterns in strips of gold silk as a symbol of identity, stood up. The mistakes should be clear, and those who deserve to be punished will be punished!" The prince had a smile on his lips, he was not stupid enough to look at the opponent's helper who saved him in front of him, the prince's eyes swept across the eldest prince, and there was a deep meaning in his eyes sneer.

The eldest prince was not annoyed, he raised his handsome eyebrows and said: "Could it be that the prince wants to refute the imperial father's imperial edict!" This sentence is poisonous, if the prince insists on his own opinion, he will be defying the imperial edict!Ning Xiangye's forehead was sweating, he has become a commodity now, a victim of the First Prince and the Crown Prince!The ministers were very sensible and kept silent. The eldest prince and the crown prince were at odds with each other. The eldest prince has been looking for helpers, intending to seize the heir and replace him. This uneasy Xiangye is just one!The prince is not a vegetarian either, he has always wanted to get rid of the eldest prince.

Ning Lianzi watched this scene coldly, feeling bored.His eyes fell on the third prince sitting on the second jade step.The third prince's appearance is more delicate than that of Young Master Yichen and Sima Heng, what a monster!It was only when she looked at the blank eyes of the third prince Xia Houxuan that she suddenly remembered that the third prince is a foolish prince, what a pity for such a good skin!The third prince raised his eyes and collided with Ning Lianzi's eyes. Ning Lianzi seemed to see the deep meaning under his eyes for a moment, and was about to explore, but Xia Houxuan's eyes became more confused than before. Ning Lianzi patted Slapping your head, could it be that you read it wrong.

Sima Heng looked at Ning Lianzi with endless deep meaning in his eyes, speechless, drink!
The emperor naturally knew what his son was thinking, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, after the examination in the Prime Minister's Court, go to the House of Internal Affairs to get ten boards! As a punishment!" The emperor took a compromise.

"Thank you Lord Long En!" Ning Xiangye knelt on the ground and exhaled. "Master Xiang can explain it now!" the emperor asked, looking slightly sideways.

"Yes, this is the eldest daughter of the minister. Because the younger daughter was ill, she did not sign up for the hospital examination. It shocked me to come here!" Ning Xiangye was honest and told the emperor the reason in detail. Ning Lianzi She sneered secretly, if she didn't sign up to take the exam, she would be considered deceiving the king!It seems that the old man hated that his coming brought him disaster.

"Minister, Ning Lianzi sees the emperor. When I return to the emperor, I am not representing the Prime Minister's House, so naturally I will not sign up on the Prime Minister's roster!" Ning Lianzi said calmly and as a matter of course.

"You..." Mr. Ning was annoyed.

"Oh?" The emperor raised his gray eyebrows.

"The minister came here on behalf of Qi Xinguo!" As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.All the ministers laughed at the woman, talking nonsense with their eyes open, not afraid of the wind flashing their tongues. "Do you have evidence for what you said, girl, you can't talk nonsense. If you don't have evidence, you should be punished for the crime of deceiving the emperor." The emperor said half-threateningly.

What a crime of deceiving the emperor. Today, Xiangfu suffered a total of three crimes of deceiving the emperor.The crime of bullying the king is really useful!Ning Lianzi sneered. "Prince Heng is here today, and Prince Heng can testify!" Ning Lianzi looked at Sima Heng with a smile in his eyes.Sima Heng nodded and said, "That's right!"

The whole audience was shocked, and the emperor was a little startled and said, "Is that so! The lady invites you!" "Hehe..." Ning Lianzi smiled lightly, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"She is from Biandan, why should she represent Qi Xinguo to participate in the hospital examination!" Meng Yun stood under the hall, her beautiful eyes were about to burst into flames, if she took away her aura, she would die!Why should Mr. Yichen ignore her and ignore him.A strangeness appeared in Sima Heng's eyes.

When a group of ministers heard Meng Yun's words, they talked a lot.The emperor stroked his gray beard and said: "This statement is true, can you tell the reason?"

"Oh, what uncle said is not correct." Ning Lianzi was about to speak, but a voice interrupted her. Ning Lianzi looked at Sima Heng slightly, and Sima Heng smiled, which meant that he was done, Ning Lianzi Zi was slightly moved.

"Our two countries are one family, so there is no difference!" Sima Heng's words were stinging, making it impossible to refuse.

"Hehe... Your nephew is right, let's start the courtyard test!" The emperor gave an order.

"The first item is painting!" the sleek eunuch said immediately.
