Chapter 31 Tear off the disguise

The four people who stepped out of the Lizheng Hall were obviously proud and satisfied, but the four people's performance was different: Cai Quan, who looked calm, as usual; Lin Kun, who was straight and arrogant; Prince and Ye Rongxuan, who were happy and even a little fluttering.

Cai Quan coughed a few times and reminded the prince not to be too arrogant. Ye Rongxuan glanced at Lin Kun, but the Zhangyang in his eyes could not be hidden at all. Lin Kun nodded and smiled. He understood that if Ye Rongxuan had not taken action, the case would have not been solved so quickly.

The crazy Zhong Lin and Chen Kangji who were not afraid of life and death were not allowed to do anything to them. Although Cheng Bobin and Hu Ziming were determined to take the responsibility alone, Ye Rongxuan knew his colleagues too well. He thought of a plan and took the two to the vestiges of Dali Temple Prison, and put their families and servants into prison, so that they could hear the sounds but could not meet each other. Then Ye Rongxuan ordered people to torture these families and servants. With the cry of pain and cry of fear, they kept stimulating the nerves of the two. Hu Ziming, who had been dead, could not bear it first, and knelt on the ground and begged to let the family go. Seeing Hu Ziming collapse, Cheng Bobin also gave up resistance.

Ye Rongxuan smiled and handed the pen and paper to the two of them, asking them to confess according to what they said. In this way, they included all 21 officials of all sizes and big courts. Cheng Bobin and Hu Ziming were unharmed. Even if Emperor Liang sent someone to check, there was no evidence of the conspiracy. Lin Kun watched coldly from the beginning to the end, without saying a word, but Ye Rongxuan followed the leader. So it can be said that it was all Ye Rongxuan who was able to solve the case and get promoted. He looked at Ye Rongxuan's proud eyes and had already decided to send someone to give him a lot of money after returning home.

The sensational fraud case in the Beijing Examination Examination was punished one by one. After the re-release of the Gongyuan, the dust finally settled. Jiang Weizhen was still the unsupported top scorer. Mu Qingyuan became the second place. The names of the northern and southern officials also appeared among the top three. The northern and southern officials were evenly divided on the list, and Du Shaoyin was still on the list. All officials on the list will be entrusted with official positions.

After the major fraud case, Emperor Liang was in a good mood. In addition to being kind to Yingpin every day, he also often summoned the prince to talk about his father-son relationship.

On the day when the imperial list was re-listed, the King of Ling was lifted out of his jail, and he was also clear about the handling of the major fraud case. After the jail, Ling still did not leave the mansion for a long time, but over the past few days, Zhang Huaiyuan has been diligent every day and has never been to visit the door one day.

"Your Highness of the King of Ling" Zhang Huaiyuan shouted softly.

King Ling waved his hand to signal the maid to retreat, and found that it was not only Zhang Huaiyuan who stood in front of him, but also a stranger.

"Who is this?"

The stranger would greet his respects without waiting for Zhang Huaiyuan's introduction, "See Your Highness, King Ling, I am Yan Tong, one of the six subordinates of the Khan of Xia Tang."

"It turns out that he is the leader of the Qinggu tribe. You have also made a contribution to this fraud case." King Ling suddenly became interested.

This Yan Tong was An Liyin who had hit it off with Jiang Weizhen at the time. However, at this time he was no longer dressed as a shabby official. His originally waxy face was now quite rosy. He replied with a smile: "It is a great honor to let Your Highness remember His Highness remember! I hope that what you do will not disappoint Your Highness."

"You Khan is involved in my internal affairs this time. I'm afraid your intentions are not good, right?"

"Your Highness is too worried. King Khan has taken the throne for the first time and is determined to cultivate a harmonious relationship with his neighbors. He has not taken any other intentions."

"Take the opportunity to make trouble, and make the fraud case worse and worse, and you still say you have no intention?"

"Isn't this exactly what Your Highness wants? Isn't this kind of thing left to us to do, so wouldn't it make Your Highness's hands cleaner?"

King Ling stood up from the Grand Master's chair and walked to Yan Tong, looking at the Tang people who looked quite like the Liang people but had a pair of green pupils. "Are you threatening me?"

"Yan Tong dared not!" Yan Tong knelt down immediately and said piously: "Although King Khan is young, he can tell the difference between the seriousness and the threats we can never do! Emperor Liang is old, the prince is weak, and King Xiang is sinister. As for King Yu, we have even more blood feuds. King Khan always believes that King Ling is the most suitable candidate to inherit the throne!" Yan Tong peeked at King Ling's face slightly, and became more courageous. "The Khan knows a little about the situation of Liang. The Khan is not as powerful as King Xiang and the prince in the court, and his support in the army is not as good as King Yu. King Khan hopes to help him with his strength."

"I have appreciated the intention of your Khan. Since Lord Zhang has brought you to see me, let him take you down to Shang for so long." After that, King Ling returned to his seat and planned to read the book on his own.

Yan Tong stood up to thank him, and was not in a hurry to receive the reward, but went closer and continued: "Your Highness has ambitions, and the same is true for King Khan. A real man should hold the power of life and death, stand at the top, and look down on the world! Today, the general trend is in progress, with Xiliang and Donghu in the north and Nanzhao in the west. King Khan wants to make a deal with His Highness Ling."

"Talking a deal with me?" King Ling looked at the smiling Yan Tong, "You Khan really have vision."

"King Khan hopes that Your Highness can ascend the throne!" Yan Tong changed his smiley face and said solemnly and solemnly.

In an instant, King Ling felt that his chest was shot by an invisible feather arrow, and it hit the bull's eye! This sentence was something he had thought about for many years but did not dare to say. It was what he tried his best to get but could not get it. It was the highest goal he wanted to pursue throughout his life! Pretending to be gentle and filial to Emperor Liang, pretending to be brotherly and affection between several brothers, everything was for this goal. He tolerated himself. He thought he was more decisive than the prince, and he was better than King Xiang in power, and he was not inferior to King Yu in battles. He had the comprehensive advantages of the three of them, and he was the most suitable candidate for the throne.

"You have successfully aroused my interest, Master Yan! My Liang Fenghua Tianbao is a collection of cultural heritage. You might as well live for a while. I will let Lord Zhang lead the Master to see how it is?"

"Of course I obey Your Highness's arrangement."

"Okay, Lord Zhang, take good care of Master Yan."

"Sir, obey the order!"

"Your Highness, don't forget the reward you promised just now."

"I can't forget it, I can't forget it!"

Leng Yuezhai

"It's really my honor to sit in the same seat as the official who was on the Beijing Examination today!" Su Qian smiled and held up the wine pot to pour wine for everyone.

"According to what you said, it is my honor for the three of them to come to me, Lengyuezhai!" Qi Wantong joked.

"Let's give them a drink first!" Xuan Shaoning raised the wine glass in his hand, and the wine in the glass was all over the place.

Jiang Weizhen smiled and said, "This time, thanks to the great favor of the emperor, the prince, Cai Xiang, and Lord Ye, and Lord Lin gave us justice to our servants. We also want to thank Brother Xuan for helping me in the most difficult times. Now we will introduce the young talents here to me."

"So, you have to have a drink!" Zhao Kexin continued to pour wine for them at the right time.

Mu Qingyuan picked up a piece of pastry and put it into his bowl, saying, "The appointment of the court has not come down. This period of time is a rare leisure day. Does Brother Jiang have any arrangements?"

After being asked this, Jiang Weizhen looked puzzled, "Qingyuan reminded me that I have never seen Brother An since the official striking the emperor list that day, and I don't know what happened to him."

"Is that Anliyin?"

"Yes, Brother Xuan has also seen it. The day before yesterday, I went to the inn where Brother An had been staying, but I heard that Brother An had left a few days ago. I wonder if he had encountered any incidents, so I didn't have time to notify me." Jiang Weizhen treated An Liyin as a friend of mine, so he was very concerned.

"I think it's his own difficulties. Maybe he will see you again if you are destined to do so in the future." Su Qian comforted.

But Xuan Shaoning thought that An Liyin was strange, and the man dressed in Xia Tang who met three times was very strange. He always felt that there was something wrong with it, but he just couldn't find out the clues in a bunch of sporadic clues.

"The fraud case has implicated many officials. Now is the time for the court to hire people, and it is the time for you to show your ambitions. You must not forget the teachings of the Master!"

Qi Wantong was right, King Xiang was thinking about how to make up for his losses. This fraud case was very involved. Although King Xiang was not affected, he had lost nearly half of the network he had worked hard to manage.

King Xiang picked up his pen and circled four names on the selected list of officials on the list and marked them next to it.

"What a powerful and powerful gold-repellent body!"

"Mrs. I will praise me." King Xiang smiled and watched Princess Xiang lift her skirt and stepped onto the stone steps of the pavilion. Her beautiful smile made the beautiful scenery around her lose all the beauty. Princess Xiang was the daughter of the prime minister of the previous dynasty. She was extremely intelligent and well-educated. Emperor Liang ordered her to marry Prince Xiang. King Xiang respected her like a guest and cared for her.

"What I'm telling the truth is that the prince chose all four of them to be quite talented."

"Nothing can be hidden from the wife's eyes!" King Xiang gently held the princess' hand, "I have suffered a lot of losses in the fraud case, and it's time to cultivate new people. I'm considering it."

"Cheng Bobin and Hu Ziming insisted on flattering others, but I never expected that they would frame the other officials, Prince, tell me the truth, are these officials wronged?"

"Did I hide what I did from my wife over the years? This time the prince obviously used the name of investigation to attack my power in the court."

"The prince must not be able to do such a big deal, there must be someone behind him."

"Of course, the investigation was conducted by Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice. Ye Rongxuan completely exposed his identity."

"He is the princeling! I'm afraid so is Lin Kun."

"I don't take them seriously."

"Is the prince concerned about Cai Quan?"

"Cai Quan is hiding very deeply, he has been silent and does not choose sides."

"According to my opinion, the prince has completely tore off his face in the fraud case. He has had an open showdown with the prince and the king of Ling. Cai Quan is probably not able to hide for long."

"Mrs. What the wife said is very much! Madam, this Mu Qingyuan is the son of Mu Jin, the young minister of Dali Temple. Mu Jin is only good at doing things but not know how to be a human being. His son is a good chess piece."

"I know this Jiang Weizhen. He was born into a poor family and received favor from King Yu when he entered the capital. He has a strong personality and is not suitable for the prince."

"My wife is so bad. The more powerful a person is, the more he is, the more he is, and he abides by Confucian morality. For such a person, there is no need for gold and silver. As long as he respects the wise and the nobles and acts as a way to serve the country and the people, he can recover it."

"Then Du Shaoyin and Shen Qianji, I know that Du Shaoyin is also a disciple of Qingshan Academy. As for Chen Qianji..."

"Chen Qianji is one of the few northern officials in the Jinke. It is reported that this person is handsome, good at speaking, and has a strong sense of fame and fortune."

"Those two points alone are enough to show that he is available."
