Changsun Wuji didn't know the details, but he heard clearly what Zhao Chen said about the contract with the emperor just now.
It's just that I can't figure it out at the moment.
"Auxiliary machines, there are all kinds of wonders in the world. Have you ever seen a kind of ink that can make you invisible?" Li Shimin said slowly.
He felt that cheating in the imperial examination would definitely be found out.
It would be a good idea to tell Changsun Wuji some of the reasons.
"Ink that can make you invisible? Are you kidding me?" Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and said with a smile.
In all his decades of living, he had never heard of such a thing.
Invisible ink?
The emperor is probably joking with himself!
"Am I kidding you?" Li Shimin glared at Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji smiled awkwardly, but he heard a burst of noise in front of him, and then it quickly calmed down.
"Your Majesty, is there really such a thing as invisible ink?" Changsun Wuji asked curiously.
He has really never heard of this thing.
"I first saw this kind of invisible ink from Zhao Chen. This kind of ink can be invisible when written on paper or clothing when the temperature is low."
"When the temperature rises, the disappeared writing will automatically appear." Li Shimin slowly explained.
But I was secretly glad in my heart. If Zhao Chen hadn't been there during this scientific examination, it would have been impossible to discover such cheating methods.
The examiners who helped with the cheating were also careless, thinking that no one would find out about it.
When I act, I no longer have so many worries.
Just sending over a dozen pieces of the same clothes, do you really think you are a fool?
Changsun Wuji opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
For him, this kind of thing is really unbelievable.
But the emperor would never lie to him.
"Your Majesty, Deputy Examiner Zhao found that a large number of candidates were suspected of cheating in the examination room. This matter involves many examiners. I ask your Majesty to investigate the matter strictly." Changsun Wuji was thinking in his heart when he saw Yu Shinan and others entering the lobby.
.
A group of examiners followed Yu Shinan one after another.
Everyone had different expressions, and their eyes fell on the tips of their shoes.
The most horrified ones were naturally the five examiners who participated in the cheating.
No one told them at first that they would be caught cheating like this.
The most said is that, like Zhao Chen, he was kicked out of the court.
With the support of aristocratic families, they can live happily in the future.
But who knew that the script would develop to such an extent.
Zhao Chen actually saw through their cheating methods, and Yu Shinan brought them before the emperor.
"You are so brave to cheat in the imperial examination." Li Shimin looked at the examiners in front of him and said expressionlessly.
…
"Why isn't there even moonlight tonight?"
In the Chang'an City residence of the Boling Cui family, Cui Yan looked at the vast night sky with a hesitant expression.
The night wind blew in, and Cui Yan's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Brother Cui is still worried about the situation in the examination room?" Wang Yi came from behind and said with a smile.
Tonight, for them, is a sleepless night.
As long as after tonight, the person they arranged to hand in the exam papers, Zhao Chen will be expelled from the court by their joint efforts, even if he has great abilities.
Without Zhao Chen, the emperor lost an important helper.
Based on the wavering ministers in the court, how many of them are really willing to fight with their family?
The emperor's plan to weaken the authority of the family would naturally go bankrupt by then.
This variable lies in Zhao Chen.
Wang Yi was also tossing and turning at this moment. When he walked to the yard, he happened to meet Cui Yan.
"It's not that I can't trust my own people, it's just that Zhao Chen is using various methods one after another, and I'm really worried."
"The Xuanjia Army incident has always been a thorn in my heart. Brother Wang, where do you think this Zhao Chen came from?"
"You have to know that he is just a sixteen-year-old boy."
"Many times, I even feel that he knows everything very well." Cui Yan said slowly, his eyes still full of hesitation.
Cui Yan asked people to investigate Zhao Chen's past.
I was surprised to find that the emperor's recent series of changes in government affairs were all after he met Zhao Chen.
Quyuan plow, barrel cart, Wannian County auspiciousness.
These seem to be related to Zhao Chen.
What Cui Yan was even more convinced of was Zhao Chen's Wangyou Bookstore.
Where did Wangyou Bookstore, which had obviously been blocked by their family, get so many books?
Papermaking, printing!
Unless Zhao Chen himself has developed a technology that is even more advanced than his family's!
"Brother Cui, none of this actually matters. As long as tonight passes, Zhao Chen's fate will be decided."
"No matter how hard he struggles, he can't escape the result of being expelled." Wang Yi said with a smile.
He was very sure about cheating in the imperial examination.
After all, this was the first time for him to see such magical technology.
The person who used that magical method discovered these things by accident.
Then how could Zhao Chen have expected that their methods would be like this?
"I hope so too, but I'm overthinking it." Cui Yan shook his head and said with a smile.
"Master, something happened..."
As soon as Cui Yan finished speaking, he heard the shout of a boy coming from outside.
This boy was arranged by Cui Yan to observe the goings-on in the examination room.
When he comes back, something big must have happened in the examination room.
"Why are you panicking!" Cui Yan shouted coldly.
Although he was a little worried, Cui Yan's face showed no change in expression.
Wang Yi on the side looked gloomy at this moment, but he didn't say a word.
The boy was stopped and stood in front of Cui Yan, looking panicked.
"What happened?" Cui Yan took a deep breath and said slowly.
"The examination room was suddenly under martial law. No one was allowed to enter or leave. The government officials surrounded the entire Chang'an government office!" the boy said in a panic.
The examination room is under martial law, so something important must have happened inside.
Generally, this is a case of extreme cheating in the examination room.
The young man didn't know Cui Yan's plan, but the strict security in the examination room would definitely be detrimental to them.
"I got it. Keep watching outside. No matter what happens, you must report it in time." Cui Yan waved his hand and looked calm.
When the boy left, Cui Yan's expression suddenly turned ugly.
He knew very well that if something serious had not happened in the examination room, martial law would not have been enforced and the government officials would have sealed off the entire Chang'an government office.
Now it's time to dispatch the Twelve Guards.
"Did something happen to one of our people? Did Zhao Chen really discover our methods?" Wang Yi frowned, looking a little worried.
"I don't know. We have to prepare. Regardless of whether it is true or not, we cannot implicate ourselves." Cui Yan said slowly.
"But the emperor is right there, and Zhao Chen... our people may not be able to handle it." Wang Yi shook his head.
"Then kill them before they tell the truth." Cui Yan's face turned cold, how could he show his murderous intention?
