The young man's figure disappeared in front of the palace gate, and the disappeared guards reappeared like they emerged from the ground, spreading everywhere.

There were chaotic footsteps coming from the palace gate, and the official robes came like clouds, and the court meeting ended.

Prince Wang seemed a little tired. For an old man, it was really too hard to have a court meeting every day before dawn, especially since there were so many things recently, his thoughts were a little confused, and his ears seemed to be in his previous court noises.

Someone hurriedly ran up ahead, looking a little flustered.

"Not good, Mr. Qian Mo's family was surrounded by the Ministry of Justice."

These words shocked the officials who came out.

An official standing beside Wang Xiangye was furious: "The Ministry of Justice is bold! The Censorate sued Qian Mo and greedy Mo. Your Majesty said it and then discussed it. How dare you arrest someone? Where is the Song and Yuan dynasties?"

Song Yuan, the Minister of Justice, did not attend court, and an official stood up, not anxious, angry, or panic.

"This matter has nothing to do with Lord Song. Your Majesty will discuss it again after you have said it. We should ask first so that Your Majesty can discuss it with you again. Otherwise, wouldn't it be unreasonable to say it?"

This is really ridiculous!

"Hand the Minister! You are disobedient..."

"Mr. Zhi, why am I disobedient? A gentleman is very serious about his trials. Later, the test is coming. Qian Mo, as the deputy examiner, was sued for the fraud case of corruption four years ago. If he had not investigated it carefully, how could he explain to the Queen how to teach the students in the world? That would be disobedient!"

The atmosphere was tense again when the sword came to the front of the palace gate.

Wang Xiangye coughed lightly: "Okay, let's discuss it again after you say it, then discuss it again, don't argue." He glanced at the official standing there, "I have investigated it with the Minister with a reasonable and well-founded."

The Minister of Justice raised his hand to the Prime Minister Wang, and his attitude was very respectful: "The Prime Minister is wise."

Prince Wang said, "Let's go."

With a command, the officials who had been silent and watched the fun immediately dispersed. Xiangye Wang stood still and several officials were left beside him.

"Mr. Zhongcheng, this incident is really surprising." Wang Xiangye suddenly said.

Standing beside the dark face was the Censor Central Chief Lu Yan, and he said, "No need to say that, the dozens of Censors in the Censorate are impossible to be my people, not to mention that the Censors are stubborn and seeking news to spread to the world... Zhu Jiang, who impeached Qian Mo, was a disciple of Chen Sheng, and he had a classmate with the Minister and Qu Bai."

The last sentence is the key. Wang Xiangye looked heavy and said, "It seems that Lord Qian will not be able to participate in the next year's exam. We will choose another examiner."

.........

.........

The sound of horse hooves on the streets and the troops of the Ministry of Justice traveled through the people, causing a stir.

"Who is going to be in trouble again?"

"It's the Ministry of Justice, it seems to be a high-ranking official."

There is no fear but curiosity. For the people in the capital, there are too many ups and downs among officials.

"What's the name of the Grand Secretary back then? He was holding a birthday party the moment before. The officials who came to congratulate him blocked the entire street. The next moment, he was confiscated by the Ministry of Justice. He went to prison without even eating the birthday noodles. He hung himself in the southeast branch that night..."

"So is this considered as the King of Hell who also holds a birthday party for him?"

The people on the street were joking and talking, pointing at the soldiers and horses of the Ministry of Justice that they had passed. Soon everyone ignored it. Their eyes turned to the street full of dogwood, half-open chrysanthemums, and the freshest chestnut cakes and chrysanthemum wine. The Double Ninth Festival is coming.

The sky is clear and the atmosphere is beautiful, the earth is thick and the mountains are dense. The road is full of people riding horses and sitting in sedan chairs, and the family is climbing high and enjoying the scenery. The atmosphere is relaxed and joyful.

The back of the Chang'an Prefecture's government office is also a little noisy than before. Several yamen runners are placing pots of chrysanthemums in the yard, and the colorful colors make the somewhat worn-out back yamen bright.

"Be careful, this was carefully selected by the prefect's wife."

"The chrysanthemum wine over there is placed in the warehouse. Don't put it randomly and be careful that it will be stolen..."

Listening to the words of the servant with his hips under the corridor, someone in the busy yamen runners laughed.

"How could someone stolen the magistrate's office?"

The servant shook his head and said, "I really steal. The master has lost several bottles of wine..."

He ran to the prefect's yamen and stole some valuable money... The yamen runner said, "It's not that the adults forgot to drink it myself."

The servant booed at him, looked inside again, and whispered: "Master, don't let that say."

There was laughter from the room, and the servant stood up and waved his hands at the yamen runners, and the yamen runners didn't dare to speak too much and continue to be busy.

There was a servant and maid in the room, and only Li Guangyuan sat and joked with a middle-aged man. There were a few letters in front of Li Guangyuan and a bundle next to him, scattered and warm... This was a letter from home.

They made a laughing sound, as if they were talking happily, but if someone came in front of them, they would find that there was no smile on their faces, but instead they looked solemn.

"...That Qian Mo is not ours..."

"...It's obvious that they don't know who is, but they know that there is something wrong with the gentleman's test, so they became suspicious of the people who participated in the gentleman's test, and Qian Mo was the first to be unlucky."

Li Guangyuan stretched out his hand to twist his beard and said, "Sure enough, he was still suspicious."

The visitor whispered: "The court is very chaotic now."

Li Guangyuan said: "You must be careful."

The visitor nodded and smiled again: "But it is also our opportunity. Mr. Qingxia has accepted the invitation from Xiangye Wang and has resumed his post and returned to the Hanlin Academy."

Li Guangyuan did not laugh and frowned and said, "How could Master Wang treat him like this?"

The person who came to the house said, "In order to avoid Lord Lin becoming the one of the best master Chen, I will win over Lord Lin first. It is not easy for Chen Xiang to win over Lord Lin. This gentleman's trial is not just for us to get the benefits... Mr. Chen is also glamorous. His Majesty's documents to invite him to court have been issued three times, and it is estimated that he has accepted it now."

Li Guangyuan pondered for a moment, looked at the letter in his hand and said, "So you want her to enter Beijing now?" He hesitated a little, "Now the chaos in the morning is so chaotic, so wait..."

The visitor interrupted him and said, "You can't wait any longer. It's because of the chaos that you can take advantage of." He lowered his voice, "What's more, the jade seal cannot be left outside."

Li Guangyuan said: "But Your Highness Jade Seal didn't tell Mr. Qingxia that he didn't get it."

The visitor frowned: "Where are Du Du and the others? Are you seeing it?"

Li Guangyuan shook his head: "I'm still running away."

The visitor sneered: "They will not believe us, and they must not believe everything they say."

Li Guangyuan was silent for a moment, and footsteps sounded outside the door. He hurriedly looked down at the letter and sighed: "It's good that the family is good, tell your wife not to worry."

The person who came was busy also nodded: "Don't worry, sir."

The servant outside the door leaned over and said, "Sir, Mr. Xue Qing is here."

.....

.....

Li Guangyuan stood in the corridor and watched the young man in blue walk in, carrying a basket in his hand, bulging in his pockets. He didn't know what he was carrying.

"...It's some wine and chrysanthemum cakes and bacon made by my own home..." She was talking to the servant who led the way, "I'll give it to the county magistrate, come here again..."

Hearing this, Li Guangyuan smiled and said, "Xue Qing, I am not your teacher. Come and give me a gift, aren't you afraid of people saying bribes?"

Xue Qing passed the county examination, and the county magistrate was the teacher. Giving gifts to teachers during festivals is the duty of a disciple, but Xue Qing did not take the palace examination and had nothing to do with Li Guangyuan.

Xue Qing said, "I'm not afraid, the students have nothing to do to bribe adults."

Li Guangyuan laughed, this child was like this, but he looked at Wenya acting arrogantly, and turned around and said, "Come in."

Xue Qing handed the basket in his hand to the servant and walked inward. His eyes were slightly wrong at a man standing in the corridor. He was in his forties and dressed in a simple and mellow face...

"This is the manager of the adult family, I'm here to send a holiday gift..." The servant introduced enthusiastically.

The man bowed to Xue Qing and said, "Dong He has met Young Master Xue."

Xue Qing nodded and returned the gift and withdrew his gaze and walked past the threshold. The magistrate's manager was not ordinary, but he was even more likely to speak.

The servant served tea enthusiastically.

Xue Qing said: "Today I am here to send the Double Ninth Festival gift, and I have some doubts about the gentleman trying it out, and I would like to ask for advice."

Li Guangyuan said oh and signaled to retreat to the servant beside him. The servant happily retreated to stop the maid who brought some snacks.

"Sir, we should talk to Mr. Xue about important matters, so we avoid it."

The maid smiled: "How old is Mr. Xue?"

The servant said, "Young Master Xue is Duke Jie Yuan. He will become a Jinshi next year. Maybe he will really win the top scorer, so he will become an official in the court. The twelve Ganluo will be prime ministers, and it is not impossible for Mr. Xue to be an official in the fifteenth... If you want to be an official, you will of course talk to the adults. "

The maid was driven away by the servant while laughing. The servant was guarding the corridor and preventing the people who packed the flower pots from coming close to this place. These people didn't understand. He followed the master to walk in the officialdom, but he knew that he should not underestimate scholars. Today is inconspicuous and may become a big shot in the future.

Li Guangyuan tidied up his clothes indoors and bowed to Xue Qing.

Since learning about his identity, Xue Qing and Mr. Qingxia have had many contacts, but it was the first time that he met Li Guangyuan alone.

Xue Qing returned the favor and said, "What's the matter with the sir?" He smiled again, "But this Double Ninth Festival gift is really for the sir."

Li Guangyuan smiled, and his restraint disappeared a little, saying, "I came from the capital and wanted you to go to the Imperial College to study and wait for the exam."

Xue Qing did not answer but asked, "I wonder who wrote it?"

Li Guangyuan picked up a letter from the table and handed it to her with his hands: "Mr. Qingxia."

Xue Qing took it and opened it. Li Guangyuan didn't say anything and waited for her to finish reading the letter, and then talked about the current situation in the capital.

"Qian Mo was arrested because of Qin Tan Gong, but it also aroused the doubts of Wang Xiangye. Chen Sheng was waiting for his return and the three sides fought each other, which was a good opportunity for the fisherman to benefit." Li Guangyuandao.

Xue Qing smiled: "I'm sure we are fishermen, and others are fish... Even if we don't see blood in this battle, it's a moment of life and death."

This is indeed, Li Guangyuan was silent. This little girl is not a well-behaved child who only reads. She brought a group of students to the prison for a high eunuch of the dynasty. Chaozheng was just like this. She didn't believe it easily.

"Yes, it's very dangerous." He raised his head, "so Mr. Qingxia and I meant that we could not go and wait and see for a while."
