Lu Zhiyun turned around with the black cat in her arms and gave a standard salute when she saw Fan Yan.
"I've met King Xuan."
Fan Yan walked towards her: "I haven't seen you for a while, and you seem to have grown taller again."
"The prince is here to see my father, right?" Lu Zhiyun said, "He has been waiting in the study for a long time."
"He knew I was coming?" Fan Yan knew he had made a fool when he asked this question. He was in charge of this case, and the case involved the Lu family and his son, so of course he would look for Lu Yi.
Fan Yan couldn't help but feel sour, as if seeing this little girl, his mind was no longer his own, and even the civil and military ministers who supported him had forgotten about it.
"Butler, take the prince to the study!" Lu Zhiyun said to the butler.
"Yes, Miss." The housekeeper responded and said to Fan Yan, "Your Majesty, please come this way."
It was rare for Fan Yan to see Lu Zhiyun. At this time, he really didn't want to worry about those cases and just wanted to talk to her a few more words. But this little girl seemed to regard him as a scourge, and she didn't have a good look every time she saw him. He asked himself if he didn't
He had bullied her, so why was he so unpopular with her?
Fan Yan left with the housekeeper.
Lu Zhiyun let out a breath.
She didn't know why, but she always felt that Fan Yan was becoming more and more uncomfortable now. Although he was obsessed before, he didn't give people the same dangerous feeling as now. Now there is less childishness and innocence in his eyes, and more
There are many things that are incomprehensible.
"Ding Xiang, keep an eye on Xiao Hei."
Ding Xiang took the black cat and asked: "Miss, the eldest young master has been the companion of King Xuan. Their relationship has always been good. If this case is handed over to him for trial, even if both the master and the young master are found to be innocent, I'm afraid it won't be possible."
Conquer the public."
"As long as we find out the truth, why can't we convince the public?" Lu Zhiyun said, "My brother only said a few words in total about those people who were friends with my brother, and he said it in front of everyone. As for those people
The gift was given by the steward, but my father and my brother confiscated it. If someone plots against my brother and my father, then they will be in trouble!"
Fan Yan met with Lu Yi and asked some questions as usual. He also met the two stewards who received the gifts. There was nothing else to ask.
Anyone with a brain can see that this is a frame-up, but for some people, it doesn't matter whether it is a frame-up, because they just want 'justice'.
The so-called 'justice' has nothing to do with the truth, but with their interests. After all, if you take down a few people, it's better to make the matter bigger, maybe it will be beneficial to them.
"I haven't gotten together with Shao Yu for a long time. Now that I'm here today, I wonder if I can get together with Shao Yu?" Fan Yan asked.
"It would be very bad for you and this case to be too close to Shao Yu at this time." Lu Yi said, "Let's wait for another day! Don't stay here too long, Your Majesty."
Fan Yan had nothing to say.
That's the truth.
Since he took the case, he had to convince the public, otherwise he would shoot himself in the foot.
After Fan Yan left, Lu Yi went to find Mu Siyu.
"I heard that King Xuan is coming, how do you feel?"
"I just want the result and see how he handles it. Nothing else matters." Lu Yi said, "However, he probably won't offend me for the time being. My relationship with Prince Zhong is very secret. Now in the eyes of outsiders, I just don't take sides. He
You probably want to win over me."
Furthermore, he has not given up on Xiao Yuner yet.
Since King Xuan entered the palace, his every move has been under surveillance, and some details about what he said to Xiao Yun'er have also been passed to him. Of course, he knows what he is thinking.
"Our little four hasn't chosen a name yet!" Mu Siyu looked at the little fat man sleeping soundly in the cradle.
"How about Shaojing?" Lu Yi said, "It doesn't have to be as dazzling as jade, it just needs to be auspicious and wishful."
"Okay." Mu Siyu poked the little fat man's cheek, "Shaojing, this name is really nice, Lu Shaojing."
"Would you like to go out for some air?" Seeing her like this, Lu Yi said, "Let the wet nurse keep an eye on her, and I'll accompany you out."
The fraud case continued to be debated for three or four days, and finally King Xuan was brought to court to hear the case.
Those people answered questions beyond their ability because someone leaked the question, and the person who missed the question in advance was an official from the Ministry of Rites. That official was related to another official from Dali Temple. After going around and around, he was transferred to Lu.
Yi is here.
As Lu Yi thought, Xuan Wang Fan Yan would not offend him now, so the case could be tried however he wanted. However, this incident still affected Lu Yi's reputation.
After the case was heard, seven or eight people were implicated. In addition to the cheating candidates, more than a dozen people were punished for this matter.
However, things are not over yet.
Since there is a problem with this exam, we have to take it again. Otherwise, how can we convince the public?
As a result, the imperial court discussed it for two or three mornings, and finally came to the conclusion that each of the six ministries would arrange for an adult to take charge of the supplementary scientific expedition.
Lu Xuan is one of them.
On the day of the scientific examination, there was no scientific examination yet, so Lu Xuan said to all the candidates: "My surname is also Lu, and I am from Hubei City. If the candidates who are from Hubei City do not perform well, they can come to me or to the Qing Lu of Dali Temple."
Your Excellency, please recommend yourself. If there is a truly talented scholar, you can hire him as a counselor."
Everyone: "..."
Several examiners nearby: "..."
Lu Xuan said these words and continued to preside over the scientific examination, as if he had no idea how many people were shocked by his words.
"What are you looking at? Is there a problem? I want to recruit a few talents for myself, can't I?"
"Okay, of course." The official next to him smiled, "Master Lu, you really caught me by surprise."
At this time, he did not avoid suspicion, but also took the initiative to say that he was from Hubeicheng, and his surname was Lu. Didn't this allow those candidates to continue making trouble?
"Is this Mr. Lu the world-famous master of Chinese speaking, Mr. Xuhuai?"
"Needless to say? Of course it's him. All the Lu family brothers are high-ranking officials. Mrs. Lu is as rich as anyone in the country. After Mrs. Lu is a military general, Young Master Lu, who is in the same class as us, is also a famous genius. If he can really go to Lu
Being a counselor is a bad job."
The way everyone looked at Lu Xuan changed.
Just now he was just an ordinary official, now he is just a piece of fat.
Lu Shaoyu and Mu Zhenghan also have to retake the exam.
When they saw the examination paper, everyone was stunned.
This time the test questions are more difficult than last time.
Not only that, there are many examples in the content of this scientific examination. If you answer vaguely, you may not even get points. If you answer powerfully, you may easily offend the senior officials above.
Candidates couldn't help but think that this retake was simply worse than the last time.
Three days later, some candidates left the examination room frustrated, while others were elated, as if they were already in high school.
"Shaoyu, this scientific examination is so difficult!"
"This involves government affairs, the current situation in various places, and the views on scholars, farmers, industry, and businessmen. It is indeed not easy to answer."
