The guard did not dare to be careless and hurriedly helped the old woman lying there up.
"Old man, if you have any grievances, feel free to tell them!"
Li Rui's voice was very soft, and then he continued.
"Your Majesty..."
The old woman raised her head gently, with a trace of shock in her eyes, and then she hurriedly shouted: "Are you King Liang?"
"Yes, this king is none other than King Liang!"
"Come here, bring the old man into the palace."
Li Rui's voice was very soft.
"Your Majesty! Women don't dare!"
The old woman hurriedly knelt down on the ground again and shouted loudly: "The woman's surname is Zheng, and she lives in Huangcao County, North County, Liangzhou. She has three sons in her family!"
"..."
Li Rui was stunned.
After pondering for a moment, he nodded slightly: "Keep talking!"
In this day and age, there is still a distinction between superiority and inferiority. If she wanted to force her into the palace, I'm afraid she would be even more frightened.
"Last year, it was the thirty-sixth year of Wanjing! All the candidates had to go to Beijing to take the examination! Although the women are stupid, the eldest son of the family is also a member of the imperial examination. With the emperor's favor, he can go to Beijing to take the examination..."
Li Rui heard this.
I'm a little surprised. The old woman in front of me looks ugly. But she can actually train a scholar?
The old woman's voice was sad, and then she continued: "When my son was playing in Pingshan County, Beijun last year, he was beaten by a group of thieves and became disabled!"
Li Rui heard this.
His brows wrinkled slightly.
"Originally, the woman thought that her son had inadvertently provoked these evil thieves. Even if he had not provoked him, Liangzhou had high mountains and rivers, and mountain bandits were rampant. Such troubles were also his destiny. The woman did not blame others.
, I just hope that my son can be safe..."
"..."
When Li Rui heard this, he gradually realized that something was not right. If this was really what the old woman said, why did she come to play the drums?
"But this year, a civilian woman accidentally discovered it!"
"My son passed the high school exam last year!"
"Poor my child, how can he go to high school without even taking a test!"
"Although my son is not very talented, he still ranked twenty-seventh on the top list!"
…
Hear this.
Li Rui took a long breath, his eyes showing a bit of solemnity.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
He finally knew what had happened. In fact, if this matter were explained clearly, it would be very simple. He was just an impostor from the imperial examination. The person who replaced him should be a powerful person and had no talent or knowledge. Otherwise, it would not be possible.
It may be so difficult to even pass the exam!
But, things are weird again.
If it is so difficult to pass the examination for a juren. If the family is unable to make him a juren, how could they directly reach out to Kyoto and let him go to high school?
Then there must be other means!
I even knew the test questions in advance...
"Please, Your Majesty, make the decision. This matter concerns my son. Now, in Dazhou, there is a person who is serving as an official in my son's name!" The old woman said with a hint of helplessness in her voice: "Such a small detail
If you think about it carefully, my son's physical disability is probably not the work of some thieves, but someone who deliberately caused harm to prevent my son from entering Beijing to take the exam!"
Li Rui nodded, took a deep breath, and then continued: "I will note this matter!"
While talking.
"Old man, please get up first. I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter for you!" Li Rui's voice was very soft, he glanced at the guard next to him, and then continued: "What are you doing standing still? Go and give Su Changyu to me.
The king invites you!"
"yes!"
Li Rui's brows furrowed deeply.
No matter how this father treats his children, he is sincere to the people of the world. He also sincerely wants to do some practical things for the people. Therefore, the purpose of holding scientific examinations and selecting talents is to be able to
Select talents from various counties throughout the Zhou Dynasty.
Avoid forming cliques for personal gain!
Therefore, he takes such things very seriously!
"In addition, notify the recordkeeper and ask him to make a memorial of what happened here and submit it to Jingzhou!" Li Rui's voice was very soft.
"Public woman, thank you so much, Your Majesty, for taking the decision!"
The old woman said with tears of gratitude.
Li Rui looked at the old woman in front of him and felt unusually painful in his heart. To be honest, such things may not be the case in Liangzhou at all. The most important thing is that there are definitely many in the entire Da Zhou.
!
Ordinary people, in front of these powerful people, have no ability to resist at all. They can only be slaughtered by others. Under this situation, no one can do anything!
There was a hint of coldness in Li Rui's eyes.
This matter must be investigated. And it must be investigated to get to the bottom of it!
"Old man, what is your eldest son's name?" Li Rui asked softly!
"Reporting to the prince, the eldest son of a commoner woman is named Wang An!"
"Wang An?"
Li Rui was stunned for a moment and nodded slightly: "How is he now?"
"My legs are gone and I can't walk. Although my arms can still hold a pen, they are so shaky that I can't write at all. I can't even use chopsticks. I lie in bed every day and give up on myself..."
"The civilian woman was really sad after seeing it!"
"Um!"
Li Rui took a deep breath. He could imagine the pain. Although he couldn't empathize with it, this mockery of fate was enough to completely destroy an ordinary family.
Thought of this.
Li Rui then said: "Come, go to this old lady's house and invite her three sons!"
Although Li Rui was indignant, he could not rely on the old woman's words to judge the case. There were still some doubts in this matter.
I'm afraid, only by meeting this Wang An can we confirm.
The old woman was helped into the palace.
Li Rui stood at the door of the palace.
Not long after, Su Changyu rolled over like a ball from a distance. When he arrived at the door of the palace, he knelt down in front of Li Rui and said, "Your Majesty, Su Changyu, I would like to pay my respects tonight!"
"Um?"
A slight smile appeared at the corner of Li Rui's mouth, and then he said softly: "Do you know why I came to you?"
"Know!"
Su Changyu grunted, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then continued: "Your Majesty, this matter is a matter of Beijun. It has no boundary with our side. Are you going to extend your hand to Beijun now?"
"This king is the King of Liang! Not the King of Hedong!"
There was a hint of anger in Li Rui's voice: "What? Could it be that this king has overstepped his bounds by taking charge of matters within Liangzhou?"
