The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

Chapter 528 There is an assassin! His Highness is injured

Minister He had a fawning smile on his face, and the officials from the Ministry of Rites behind him had already stepped forward, ready to take the scroll from His Highness and take it back for review.

Liang Chongyue sat upright on the chair, and Jing Suiyang came forward with a group of guards in black clothes and robes to stop the people from the Ministry of Rites.

Although Jing Suiyang was not wearing a mask, the oppressive feeling of the Sifangtai Zhangling was not something that ordinary officials dared to offend.

Seeing his men stop, Minister He's face was once again rubbed on the ground in public. The old man who had been flattered for half his life could not help it.

But considering the dignity of Her Royal Highness, he suppressed his anger and stepped forward with a smile:

"Your Highness, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing. My father has entrusted me with the responsibility of this Spring Examination, so I won't bother the Ministry of Rites with the review of these papers. I'll make my own arrangements. If Minister He is worried, why don't you come to the Imperial Examination Hall after the morning court tomorrow and monitor the review until it's finished?"

Liang Chongyue's words blocked all the next words from Minister He. This year, she would never allow anyone to play tricks on the Spring Examination.

"But the review of these papers has always been handled by the Ministry of Rites, and the procedures involved are numerous and complicated. Your Highness, is His Majesty aware of this?"

Liang Chongyue laughed at Minister He for still not understanding the situation. Her scumbag father didn't care about that. She always had a preference for acting first and reporting to him later.

Liang Chongyue didn't waste any words, but stood up and walked in front of Minister He, showing the jade pendant hanging around his waist to Minister He for a good look.

"Since the Emperor has already entrusted me with the responsibility of this year's imperial examinations, and I have already allowed Minister He to bring your men to oversee the review of the papers, but Minister He has repeatedly refused, I begin to suspect that he has something to hide and is afraid to hand the papers over to me."

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, Minister He's face turned red and white. There were few people in the court who were truly innocent and clean.

No matter how well a bag of high-quality rice is stored, it is impossible for it to be free of borers.

If you kill one batch, another batch will be born. If you want to kill them all completely, the only way is to throw away the bag of rice.

When there is nothing left to eat in the rice bag, the termites cannot escape and die inside.

For the age-old problem of corrupt officials, Liang Chongyue could only arrest the serious ones and let the minor ones go, but all the reactions of Minister He during the Spring Examination proved to Liang Chongyue that he had something to hide and was guilty.

Liang Chongyue has asked the system to investigate and follow the clues. She hopes that Minister He will not let her down. He has been the Minister for ten years, so there must be a lot of scandals behind him.

The beard on Minister He's chin stood up with anger, and his face looked ugly, but as an official in the court, everyone has a few masks to wear.

After controlling his emotions, Minister He put on a smile again, and in an instant he changed from being fawning to being humble and polite.

"The Spring Examination is the most important event for students in Daxia. I will bring my staff here tomorrow after the court session and strive to finish grading all the papers as soon as possible so that the students can know their results as soon as possible."

After saying this, Minister He did not forget to bow to the Princess Royal and take his leave. The officials who came with Minister He also left the Imperial Examination Hall.

Liang Chongyue stood there and watched their backs as they left, rubbing the jade pendant in his hand.

"Leave more people here to guard the paper rolls. If there are any mistakes in the paper rolls, you all know the rules of this palace."

Liang Chongyue didn't believe that the old villain surnamed He would be persuaded to give up by just a few words from her. He was afraid that his scumbag father had secretly collected treasures from many people and promised the results of many people since the day he announced the imperial examination.

These parasites have become accustomed to this over the years, and from now on, with her around, they will never act like this again.

Therefore, there would definitely be people who would take advantage of her first time in charge of the imperial examination to find loopholes, even if it meant risking being discovered and kept on file, and being banned from the imperial examination.

Before Liang Chongyue left, his eyes swept over the thick pile of paper rolls, then raised his head and looked at Jing Suiyang who stayed behind. Jing Suiyang understood what His Highness meant and saluted respectfully. He would definitely not sleep a wink tonight while guarding this batch of paper rolls until His Highness came back from court.

After leaving the Imperial Examination Hall, Liang Chongyue noticed that many eyes were fixed on her in the dark. The imperial examination was a major event in life, and there would inevitably be students waiting around the Imperial Examination Hall, and there was tension in their eyes when they looked at her.

Although Liang Chongyue had never participated in the ancient imperial examinations, she still had a lot of feelings about the college entrance examination in her previous life, when thousands of people were competing to cross a single-plank bridge.

"Your Highness, there's something wrong with these people around here."

Ping An also noticed something was wrong and immediately became alert.

"Nothing, just some clowns, no need to panic."

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, he raised his head and got on the carriage back home in a dignified and proud manner. As the carriage started moving, a sharp arrow shot in from the window. Liang Chongyue and Yun Ling had already bent down to hide. The sharp arrow passed over their heads and hit the carved inner wall of the carriage.

Liang Chongyue turned her head to look at the arrow with sharp eyes, and saw a faint liquid dripping on the arrowhead. The drop of liquid directly corroded a hole in the base of her extremely gorgeous carriage.

"What a cruel heart you have."

Liang Chongyue laughed mockingly. Yun Ling pulled back the car curtain without fear of the poisonous arrows that might suddenly shoot in. She shouted towards the driver's seat:

"There is an assassin. His Highness has been shot by an arrow. Protect His Highness!"

Yun Ling's voice sounded anxious and flustered. Amidst Yun Ling's voice, which was a mixture of anger and panic, Liang Chongyue heard the sound of the second arrow being shot.

He took out the plasma that he had prepared long ago from the drawer and squeezed it on his right shoulder, then pulled Yun Ling back. When the second arrow shot in from the place where Yun Ling had just exposed her head, Liang Chongyue wrapped the arrow in a handkerchief and pulled it out, holding it in his hand.

"There's an assassin, protect His Highness!"

There was chaos around the carriage, which was surrounded by guards who had been keeping watch in the dark. The people nearby had already fled upon hearing the noise.

Liang Chongyue waited quietly for the sound of the third arrow being shot, but a guard team had already chased towards the location where the arrow was shot. He didn't know if the archer had the courage to shoot again.

Liang Chongyue listened for a while and found that the guards in the distance had already caught up with the location where the arrow was shot, but the assassin had disappeared.

She was surrounded by guards like an iron barrel, all of whom were top masters of Da Xia. It seemed that even if the assassin shot the third arrow, he would not be able to hit her carriage.

"Your Highness, you must hold on, Your Highness, Your Highness!"

Yun Ling was still performing hard. If the situation wasn't so serious, Liang Chongyue would have stopped and appreciated Yun Ling's flawless performance without props.

call out--

The third arrow was shot. Liang Chongyue stood up, pulled back the curtain, exposing his injured right shoulder to everyone. Then he aimed at the assassin and returned the second arrow he had shot to him.
