Chapter 509: The object of suspicion

It's him, he must have asked this question!

In an examination room, Dong Qian gritted his teeth. Even though he was talented and knowledgeable, he was confused by this question.

In the Northern Xinjiang Province, Liu Yunyi, the son of Yi Qinghou Liu Zhang, looked through the examination papers with a look of astonishment on his face...

With his status, there is no need to take the scientific examination. As the son of a dignified governor of a province, does he need to worry about his future?

Of course not!

Then why did he come?

It's because of Wang Kang!

Born in the Earl's Palace of Fuyang, a famous prodigal son, and now Emperor Zhao's new favorite...

All these things have long attracted the attention of all the nobles in the Zhao Kingdom!

He was just curious and wanted to see something, that's all...

Suddenly, he suddenly smiled,

This question is interesting,

Ye Zhibai is from Xuanwu City!

Except for his poor background, he was good at everything else. He came to Kyoto because of Wang Kang. He wanted to know who he was.

It can make all the beautiful girls in Xuanwu City obsessed with it. It is still spread in Xuanwu City to this day.

It is said that Zhang Xianxian went to Yangzhou, had an entangled relationship with Wang Kang, and was pregnant. She is missing now because the Governor couldn't let go of his dignity and arranged to raise the baby elsewhere...

In short, there are all kinds of rumors and rumors.

Ye Zhibai has always been in love with Zhang Xianxian, but has never revealed it. He feels that his identity is too different from that of the governor's daughter.

After seeing the test questions, he became a little suspicious. If it was really Wang Kang, then this guy was not as bad as the outside world said.

Just the open questions of the policy theory are not that clever...

Jiangzhou, Laizhou...

Candidates from all over the country are all thinking about it at this moment. Some people are trembling with fear when they see it, and they even feel that it is difficult to write!

It’s over, I’m definitely going to fail this imperial examination!

There were all kinds of sighs and uproar in the examination room!

"Quiet, quiet!"

The invigilator shouted at the right time,

But Wang Kang smiled knowingly at this moment. Of course he understood what the examinee was thinking at this moment.

I just want to test you to tears...

During the inspection, I came to an examination area, and Wu Zhirong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, happened to be here.

The invigilation of imperial examinations is also divided into priorities.

Wang Kang was the chief official in charge of the imperial examination, and naturally he was also the chief invigilator. Ru Yan Liqun, Ji Ning and others were the deputy invigilators.

This chief officer is not easy to be,

Because if a major accident occurs during the imperial examination, we will be jointly and severally liable.

Although the reason for the fraud incident three years ago was not found, the chief invigilator and adjutants were all dismissed by Emperor Zhao.

This is why Shen Yuanchong dug a hole for Wang Kang...

Wu Zhirong was sitting behind the invigilation table at the moment, holding a copy of the exam questions in his hand and looking at it.

Seeing Wang Kang coming over, he asked suspiciously: "Did you ask this question?"

"Mostly me,"

Wang Kang asked again: "What do you think, Mr. Wu?"

Wu Zhirong shook his head and said nothing, but he was extremely shocked inside.

As the Minister of the Ministry of War, he certainly has a very high vision, so he can naturally see that this question is very high-level.

The question format is novel, targeted, and professional. From all aspects, it is a very good reform.

He somewhat understood why His Majesty had to defy all opinions to appoint this son. He indeed had some ability. This exam question would never be asked by the old scholars in the Hanlin Academy.

Because their thoughts have been solidified,

Even though he thought so and had appreciation in his heart, he still didn't give Wang Kang a good look.

Until now, the female doctor sent the minister to the minister, and it is still circulating in Beijing, causing him a huge loss of face...

Wu Zhirong snorted coldly and ignored him, but Wang Kang seemed to sit down beside him unconsciously.

Wang Kangcheng agreed: "Master Wu, I have something to ask you."

“I don’t have time and I don’t know!”

Hey, this little old man is quite vindictive.

"Master Wu, there is something really important,"

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhirong immediately raised his voice and said coldly: "I'm going on a patrol,"

Wang Kang whispered beside him: "The test questions have been leaked,"

"What did you say?"

Hearing this, Wu Zhirong turned around suddenly,

"Really," Wang Kang then told what happened last night.

"I have arranged for people to find the Hanlin official Li Hu and detain him. I have also asked Jin Yiwei to investigate who he met yesterday. There is no news yet."

Wang Kang said in a deep voice: "But I guess the test questions have been leaked."

Wu Zhirong asked again and again: "Are you sure?"

"10 out of 10!"

"I've only told you about this so far. If I tell you now, I'm afraid it will cause confusion, and I'm afraid it might alert the enemy!"

Hearing this, Wu Zhirong looked at Wang Kang deeply, and the test question was leaked. What was it for? It must be cheating, and hearing this, Wang Kang wanted to catch him.

What a courageous person,

If others knew about this, I'm afraid they would already be in panic...

At this time, he also knew why Wang Kang was looking for him.

Three years ago, after the large-scale fraud incident, Emperor Zhao was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. At that time, it was he, the Minister of Punishment, and Jiang Shenbiao who were the chief officials.

Wang Kang asked: "You and Mr. Jiang presided over the fraud incident three years ago. I want to know some specific details of the case."

"Do you suspect that they are a group of people?"

"right,"

Wu Zhirong asked, "What's the basis?"

"Feel,"

Wu Zhirong shook his head and said: "Feeling? You are so ridiculous,"

"Master Wu,"

Wang Kang said in a deep voice: "What kind of prejudice do you have against me personally? I hope you can put it aside temporarily. Don't dare to relax on this kind of thing. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens!"

"Just imagine, if a fraud like the one three years ago happened again, what would the consequences be?"

"It is true that I am the chief official and I will bear the main responsibility, but the court will also lose its prestige and the influence will be too great,"

Hearing this, Wu Zhirong's expression gradually became serious. He knew what Wang Kang meant.

Fraud in the imperial examinations had a great impact on the prestige of the imperial court. As Minister of the Ministry of War, he naturally understood the pros and cons.

Wu Zhirong took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice: "Master Jiang and I were the main investigators of the major fraud case three years ago, and we assisted in the investigation of all the people involved, from the test officer, the invigilator, even the clerks, supervisors, etc."

"But no clues were found. Everyone is normal. There is nothing overstepping the bounds, and no doubts have been found."

This is the most incredible place,

Wang Kang asked again: "What about those candidates who cheated at that time?"

"I didn't ask anything. Those candidates who committed fraud have unusual family backgrounds. Before they could be investigated, pressure from all parties was already imposed."

Wu Zhirong said again: "These people insist that they don't know anything and just answer the questions normally."

"Actually, it's not that this case cannot be investigated, but that it cannot be investigated. At that time, His Majesty had just ascended the throne and the government was unstable, so in the end it was left unsolved."

"Mainly, we haven't found any conclusive evidence,"

Hearing this, Wang Kang understood. He had some understanding before.

He asked again: "Do you have any doubtful candidates?"

"have!"
