After wearing the book, he was favored by the villains in line

From seeing Lou Rongrong waiting for him to come back, Fei Wusu guessed that Lou Rongrong must have something to say to him.

But there seems to be a subtle tacit understanding between the siblings. Lou Rongrong didn't take the initiative to ask, and Fei Wusu didn't ask. It wasn't until Lou Rongrong felt that the most important things were done, that he planned to talk to Fei Wusu. Explain something.

She didn't hide anything, and directly told Fei Wusu what happened today, and finally asked:

"Brother, do you know Jing Niang's father? From what you can see, is it possible that he is involved in the fraud case?"

Not knowing if it was Lou Rongrong's illusion, Fei Wusu was silent for two seconds before opening his mouth and saying:

"Liu Jinyi is indeed diligent and conscientious, he is a poor official, and he dares to speak out."

This means that Liu Jinyi is indeed a good official, but looking at Fei Wusu's face, Lou Rongrong knows that this matter is not that simple.

Sure enough, Fei Wusu thought for a long time, and finally said:

"I didn't intend to tell you about this, but I didn't expect someone to find you."

Lou Rongrong immediately realized the importance of what Fei Wusu was going to say, and quickly sat upright, waiting with dignity.

It was only after Fei Wusu explained the turbulent undercurrent in it slowly that Lou Rongrong realized how many intertwined and disconnected roots there were in this big case.

Still start with the imperial examination.

Since this was the first provincial examination after Ying Ze took power, Ying Ze attached great importance to it.

According to the old practice, the examiners of the provincial examination were appointed by the emperor himself not long before the examination started, in order to avoid bribery of the examiners and fraud.

In the imperial examinations of all dynasties, there is a subtle relationship between the candidates who pass the exam and the examiners in charge. Although the examiners have not taught the candidates, they have the friendship of teachers to the candidates.

Although the first emperor set the rules for the palace examination when he was still alive, he called all the Jinshi on the list the disciples of the Son of Heaven, and wanted to sever the relationship between the examiners and the admitted candidates, but although everyone was quiet on the surface, in fact It was not avoided in private.

Don't underestimate the easy student-student relationship. In the official career, this is often the easiest ladder for newcomers to grasp.

Therefore, the selection of examiners for the provincial examination is often under the multi-party game, and the results obtained cannot be determined by the emperor alone.

For example, among the three examiners in this provincial examination, apart from the chief examiner Zhang Zhixian, a Hanlin scholar, who was appointed by Ying Ze, the deputy examiner, Lu Chengnai, a member of Zhongshusheren, was originally from the royal party, and is now a candidate for the split between the emperor's faction and the neutral faction. He Jinzhong, Minister of the Ministry, was selected by the right minister Lan Jingxuan, and he was a real former queen mother.

However, after the queen mother returned power and disappeared, they stopped for a long time, and after a period of dispersion and reorganization, they appeared in the court with a new look.

Today, the party headed by Lan Jingxuan is passionate about fighting against Ying Ze. They are called loyal ministers and direct admonitions. They are not afraid of death and dare to oppose the emperor, because they are all loyal ministers.

The key is that some people really believe in this so-called fallacy. Many young people who have illusions about honest and upright ministers have been fooled. There are many people who support this party in folk associations.

Against such a background, if Ying Ze wanted to succeed in this imperial examination, he would inevitably try to squeeze his own people into every joint to ensure that there would be no mistakes.

But the truth is, something went wrong in the end, and a big one at that.

The reason why Fei Wusu looked somber was precisely because Liu Jinyi was one of the officials that Ying Ze confirmed as his own. He was a straightforward person who never participated in party disputes, and was a true minister of direct advice.

But Ying Ze couldn't rule out the suspicion for Liu Jinyi. One reason is that Liu Jinyi, as a family record officer, is indeed one of the most likely candidates to participate in the fraud, and the other is that Liu Jinyi's family is poor, especially if he is seriously ill. The old mother is even more in line with the conditions that may accept bribes for money.

According to the fierce public opinion at this time, if there is no definite evidence in the end that Liu Jinyi really did not accept bribes, I am afraid that Liu Jinyi will really become one of the scapegoats for the public to vent their anger and be pushed out to bear the public's anger.

Lou Rongrong didn't expect that Jing Niang's worry was actually true. Liu Jinyi also knew his situation, probably because he knew his possible ending and told his daughter about the funeral, but Jing Niang refused to accept it. Will be so frantically running around for help.

Disgustingly, this is probably one of the purposes of the people behind the scenes.

If Ying Ze really took the initiative to save people, he would have given in in this battle. Then the other parties involved would naturally be able to find a way to get their own people out. In this way, the case of fraud would be even worse. It's over.

It was also at this time that Lou Rongrong understood the truth of the fraud case. This case did not have the truth that the world wanted angrily.

If not, why did the joint trial of the three divisions take so long without even finding out a single bird?

Officials like Liu Jinyi who are truly innocent but have been entangled in them have long been used as bargaining chips in other people's schemes. Those who are willing to lend a helping hand are obviously old foxes who know how big the storm is brewing, and they are unwilling to harm their own interests for others.

No wonder Ying Ze summoned the courtiers to discuss every day, and Fei Wusu didn't even sleep properly for a few days. He was clearly saddened by what happened to an innocent minister, and he refused to let the black hands behind the scenes go unpunished.

After knowing the truth behind this, although Lou Rongrong was horrified, she faintly gained some confidence. She did not express her opinion rashly, but said to Fei Wusu with distress:

"Xiaorong understands, I will act carefully and not be caught by others."

When Fei Wusu told her these things, it was obvious that she did not want her to act rashly. As the regent appointed by the late emperor, Fei Wusu naturally belonged to the emperor's influence. read.

Seeing that she understood what he meant, Fei Wusu felt relieved and patted her head:

"If necessary, the key to the warehouse of the palace is in the dark box in my study, and there are some banknotes and land deeds in the cage under the bed. Don't ask me, you can use them at will."

Lou Rongrong nodded, but she still had a useless account of 250 million silver in the system, so she didn't plan to use Fei Susu's money, so she obediently responded, picked up the desk and wrote that she was waiting for Fei Susu Shi Lian's words, walked to the door:

"I ordered the kitchen to prepare some sweet fruits and vegetables for you. You can hide them in your sleeves when you go to court in the morning. If your throat is thirsty and there is no tea to drink, you can use it to moisten your throat. Brother will also use it tonight. Get some rest early."

Fei Wusu didn't answer, but sent her out personally, Lou Rongrong knew that he was going to stay up all night again, and wanted to persuade her again, Fei Wusu had already closed the door as expected, and said through the door:

"Let's go to rest quickly, Rongrong, I have to study tomorrow."

Lou Rongrong held back and didn't tell him that he was catching up with Xiu Mu tomorrow, so he didn't need to study.

Fei Wusu, who has always cared about Lou Rongrong, doesn't even remember that Lou Rongrong will take a bath tomorrow, which shows how busy Fei Wusu is.
