After the child's mind was read, the tyrant caught the male queen with a black face

System: [Because this Wanmin Umbrella is fake! ]

Everyone:! ! !

How dare they forge the Wanmin Umbrella presented to the emperor?! Do they think they are fools?!

Yuan Ruan was so surprised that he took a sip of the milk soup: [How dare this guy?! We are still here, isn’t he afraid of being exposed?]

System: [This person is eager to use power to turn things around, so he doesn't care about so many things. Moreover, this county magistrate is still a little clever. For example, this umbrella of ten thousand people was indeed signed by the people of several local counties. But these people signed not to praise the emperor, but to pray for the emperor's mercy. ]

After these words were spoken, Qi Yue and the Third Prince sat up straight at the same time.

The three people who were accompanying him, the Junior Secretary of the Chancellery, the Chancellor and the Grand Secretary, were alert and their eyes were sharp.

Yuan Ruan asked in confusion: [Please have mercy, brother? What happened around here? Is that bandit still disturbing the people? ]

System: [No, no. There is no such thing as bandits at all. That thing was purely directed and performed by this guy himself, just like this drama, it is something to promote his "virtuous name", not worth mentioning.]

Rongpin, the third prince and the seventh princess couldn't believe it: !!!

Officials outside the city actually dared to collude with bandits in order to gain fame? They directed and acted in this themselves?!

Although the Junior Secretary, the Prime Minister and the Grand Secretary were also surprised, they were not very surprised.

Because in this era when officials rely on recommendations to become officials, many people at the bottom have done all kinds of outrageous things to gain fame in order to stand out.

For example, in order to show filial piety, some people would lie on the ice in the middle of winter to catch fish for their parents. Some people would cut off their thigh meat to feed their sick mothers, and some would single-handedly go into a bandit’s den to save people. Many of these stories were fabricated.

Moreover, most of the people in the same village help to commit fraud in order to have their relatives become officials. Not only will their own family benefit from promotion, but they will also be blessed with tax reductions.

Yuan Ruan was stunned: [What? Is this something for fame? Seventh sister and the third prince are really amazing. They can tell something is wrong at first glance. And they made it up! ]

The system heard this and said quickly: [No, no, no! It's not made up. The talent of this county magistrate can't support such a complete drama with "introduction, development, turn and conclusion".]

Yuanruan: [Ah? It's not made up? The characters in the play have prototypes? ]

System: [Yes, the characters in the drama all have prototypes. They are just given a different shell. For example, the one who really committed the crime was the magistrate's own son. But after the son colluded with the bandits, he was afraid of hurting the interests of his father, the magistrate, so he told the magistrate about it. The magistrate was furious, beat up his own son and sent him away. At the same time, the magistrate announced that his own son had passed away, and deceived his adopted son into contacting the bandits to take the blame. The adopted son thought that his own son was dead, and the magistrate was the only one left, so he believed that the magistrate would rescue him, and then he agreed. Later, the magistrate colluded with the bandits to invade, and the adopted son was killed by the magistrate to silence him.]

Everyone:! ! !

The third prince clenched his fists: You bastard official!

Qi Yue narrowed his eyes and placed his right hand on the hilt of his sword.

The faces of Junior Chancellor, Grand Secretary and Chancellor of the Chancellery also darkened. This was not only about making a name for himself, but also involved multiple murders, as well as crimes such as deceiving superiors and subordinates to gain fame.

Yuan Ruan was so angry that he drank another mouthful of sweet soup to calm down: [This man not only found a scapegoat, but also framed the scapegoat. He is really too cruel! Judging from his age, he has been an official for many years. It is impossible that he only has this one mess. Look at his melons. ]

System: [Okay! Let me take a look!]

Everyone:! ! !

System: [Wa Qu, this guy! Damn it! ]

Everyone:? ? ?
