Chapter 579
After choking for a while, Liu Zongquan forced a sentence from his teeth.
"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Fang." He said.
Apart from this, he didn't know what to say to Fang Qichuan.
Fang Qichuan said it all by himself, as for whether it makes sense...
Liu Zongquan heard something, but something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.
Fang Qichuan hurriedly said, "No, no, no, I should do this for your Highness."
After saying that, Fang Qichuan politely said a few more words and turned back to Taichang Temple.
He walked slowly and slowly, and his steps were solid, which was enough to show that he felt at ease.
By the corner, the morning sun was falling, making him squint his eyes.
Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Liu Zongquan standing still in place, and Fang Qichuan snorted in his heart.
He knew that his own preparation was very sufficient.
After all, the most guilty thing about smuggling was the Fourth Highness, and Fang Qichuan's words undoubtedly fell above seven inches.
Moreover, he followed the order of the Fourth Prince to find out some information from the Wen family, and it was understandable that he did so.
This explanation can dispel the fourth prince’s doubts.
Having said that, not everyone is as smart as the fourth young master and his wife, and can hit him to the point of being able to admit defeat.
Of course, you can't blame the Fourth Highness for being naive. To put it bluntly, it was the two men on Dafeng Street who were not as smart as a young couple at this age.
And no matter how much Qichuan jumps left and right, he will definitely have to jump to a large ship with a draft and stable bottom.
The fourth young master may not be infatuated with the high position. He can make him more and more prosperous in the future, but following smart people is the right way to do things.
Under the high wall, Liu Zongquan stood straight and looked at Fang Qichuan's back as he left.
Who told him before that Lord Fang is an old pedantic?
Liu Zongquan couldn't remember it, but he was sure that the other party and Lord Fang were just superficial friendships in the officialdom and he was definitely not involved in the interests.
Once it is related to its own interests, where will Fang Qichuan become pedantic?
This man is a first-class person who can make plans.
Liu Zongquan breathed a sigh of relief and went back to see Zhu Yu.
He spoke a word from Lord Fang and whispered to the Fourth Prince. Sure enough, the Fourth Prince frowned.
It's reasonable, but a little weird...
Zhu Yu couldn't tell the difference clearly, and thought it was more meticulous, but he also felt that Fang Qichuan's intentions were pointing to it.
Did Fang Qichuan see it?
Weng Fengxian was dead in the forest farm, but his wife was still hung up by the doctor, and several children and grandchildren were in the hands of Sansi. If Sansi wanted to splash dirty water, Zhu Yu and the Yu family would be unable to escape.
What's more, Zhu Yu himself knew that it was not dirty water.
The Shen family is over, but whether this fire will burn him depends on Zhu Mao, Zhu Huan and Huo Yixiao.
Everyone is staring at that chair. If you catch such a good opportunity, how can you waste it in vain?
Fang Qichuan's considerations are quite reasonable.
Zhu Mao and Zhu Huan are now restraining each other and are afraid of each other. Huo Yixiao is all about overturning the case for the Marquis of Pingxi. If his intention is blocked and he will go crazy, then...
"Don't worry about Fang Qichuan," Zhu Yu whispered to Liu Zongquan, "It's better to deal with it earlier."
Liu Zongquan agreed.
The emperor thought about it for two days.
When the morning court came, Huo Yixiao did not chase after him and mentioned this matter again.
That afternoon, Chen Zhenghan invited Zhao Taibao and Jin Taishi to the Imperial Study Room according to the agreement with Huo Yixiao.
The one who took the lead was Zhao Taibao.
After the emperor gave the three old men the throne, Zhao Taibao handed the list to the emperor for a look.
That was the specific ranking of candidates after the palace examination.
The emperor personally sets the questions in the palace examination. After the exam, the examiners first review the round and give a general order. Then ask the emperor to review the papers. Finally, the first and second grades will be determined based on the emperor's judgment.
Generally speaking, as long as the tribute student who entered the palace examination would not be eliminated. At the very least, he was also a third-class student and was awarded the same Jinshi. However, there were exceptions. There were also a few "unlucky" people in all dynasties. The palace examination papers were answered in a mess and the emperor gave them the names.
Zhao Taibao has confirmed the ranking of this palace examination several times with the emperor.
Maybe it was because of the hard work of persuading Chen Ming to be on the list during the Spring Examination. This time, the emperor was very easy to talk to.
Chen Ming's answer sheet belonged to the middle of the rank, so the emperor gave the middle of the rank, and did not let people fail, but the name had to be translated into another chapter because Chen Ming was dead.
As for the other three children from the official family who were close to the Shen family, they all missed the palace examination that day, which saved them trouble.
The emperor carefully read the list and nodded, "Just settle it like this, let the official who fills the list post be issued like this."
Zhao Taibao should give in.
The emperor picked up the tea, took a sip, and looked over the three of them, saying, "A few dear friends come together, it's not just for the sake of rankings. There are no outsiders in the imperial study room today, just say whatever you have."
Zhao Taibao said: "After or later, there will be an argument for the matter of the Marquis of Pingxi. The emperor, I think it is better to make a decision early than to drag it down."
The emperor said "hmm".
Chen Zhenghan sighed in his heart.
Things have to be said, but they are hard to say.
Don’t listen to the emperor saying “If you have anything to say”. If they say “Do you have to be too embarrassed to get over the face, they will keep dragging them together?” Then the three of them will clean up together and go home to take care of their old age.
That kind of words, only the fourth young master could say in the imperial study room, but he had to be lucky. The emperor was not in such a bad mood, so he would not be punished and scolded after he finished speaking.
Master Jin coughed: "Your Majesty, unless you are a man of more than ten or twenty years and do not intend to rehabilitate the Pingxi Hou Mansion, otherwise, there is no need to drag it."
His throat is uncomfortable today, his voice is hoarse and his speed is slow. A few simple words fall into people's ears, but they are actually not that comfortable.
Thanks to the high moral character of Master Jin, he was the regent minister appointed by the late emperor, and the imperial teacher, and he could say something unpleasant.
"You are guilty of the Zhao family, whether it is wrong or wrong, you feel responsible. What about us ministers?" Grand Master Jin couldn't help but cough twice, "It's a traitor who was misled by the Shen family, and you have to convict the Marquis of Pingxi and Taifu Xia in such a step-by-step pressing. It's the fault of us ministers who are ministers!"
Zhao Taibao looked at Master Jin, afraid that the old Master would be unable to control his emotions as he spoke, so he quickly answered the conversation.
"Emperor," said Zhao Taibao, "I, my minister and Taishi, and Xia Taifu, have been in charge of the same dynasty for so many years, and finally, seeing him get such an ending, we have a great responsibility.
If you don’t change the judgment, you have your considerations, and you are actually protecting us and not letting us old guys be shameless.
But, no one can be without mistakes if a person is not a sage?
I know the difficulties that year, and I had no choice at that time, and the Taifu could understand it. But now, the situation is different. I also want to ask the emperor to ask us two old guys to go to the Taifu Ling to have a feast.
