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

Chapter 534 The day the results are released

The day for the results announcement has not yet arrived, but the papers have already been marked. Liang Chongyue does not have to get up early to attend court or mark memorials in Changshengtian. His life is so happy.

"Your Highness, there are less than ten days left until the results are announced. Minister He's residence is almost finished with renovations. It's time to put some things on the agenda."

Liang Chongyue lay on the recliner, smelling the fragrance of flowers in the wind, letting Li Yu'an massage her shoulders and legs. When she opened her eyes, she saw Li Yu'an's handsome face.

"No rush, it's not time yet. How can the mansion that Jing Suiyang set on fire be repaired so quickly?"

Jing Sui Yang set fire to the yard where Minister He slept. The mechanism under the wooden shell was exposed, the bed board was carbonized, and only an empty shell was left underneath. Minister He is now immersed in the fear of losing things every day.

It would be boring to start playing the game too early, and there would be hope if you didn’t know what the next execution would be.

Li Yu'an didn't say anything more after hearing this. Liang Chongyue played with the jade twist in his hand. Although some things were not convenient to say out loud, it was still okay to give some hints secretly.

"Your Highness, the letter from Princess Gaoyang has arrived."

Yun Ling took the letter brought by the doorman and went upstairs to deliver it to His Highness.

After Liang Chongyue opened it and read it, he threw it aside and burned it.

"Has Mother Bian left?"

"Not yet."

Liang Chongyue's eyes were filled with coldness, and he showed his disdain without disguising it at all:

"Take the bracelet that Princess Pingnan gave me and give it to Mother Bian. She will know what to do."

In her early years, when Princess Pingnan wanted to get close to her, she gave her a very luxurious bracelet, saying it was a family heirloom. Liang Chongyue directly had it put into the warehouse.

Now one of them is asking her to do something for him, and the other is writing an essay in the Imperial Examination Hall, but neither of them is willing to give anything practical. Are they just treating beggars like this?

Yun Ling took the order and left. Liang Chongyue chatted with Li Yu'an about the candidates' rankings.

"If Your Highness has already decided, I will have the bookstore print it."

Liang Chongyue nodded slightly. After Li Yu'an left, he opened the panel and calculated the power of Princess Pingnan and her mother's family. In comparison, the conditions given by Princess Pingnan were really average.

She is the future emperor. It would have been better if you didn't tell her about such trivial matters. Even if you didn't tell her, she would guarantee fairness in the imperial examination.

After saying that, I felt like she was maintaining fairness for her own sake, Princess Pingnan.

Days passed, and since the fire in the Imperial Examination Hall, there has not been a single peaceful day in the capital.

Liang Chongyue arranged for several candidates whose papers had been replaced and whose titles had been replaced under the secret manipulation of Minister He to go to Beijing to accuse Minister He and those who impersonated them.

The current Chief Justice of the Dali Temple is her man. No matter how much gifts Shangshu He and those people give her, she will accept them and will not do anything for them.

The question is whether I feel relieved or have given up.

Liang Chongyue likes the bustling capital city, where there is so much going on everywhere that you can hear endless news without leaving the house. When Fei He is not around, Ping An takes over his task of delivering messages, telling them to her in different ways every day, just like performing crosstalk.

"Your Highness, Minister He has been stripped of his official hat by His Majesty and thrown into prison. Minister He has been crying foul in the hall, and no one dares to say a word."

"The current Ministry of Rites is being acted by Lord Qin Duanyu, and the Ministry has been quite quiet recently."

Qin Duanyu is a smart man who knows what to do and what not to do. It seems that after the incident with Minister He is over, his scumbag father will want him to become the new Minister of Rites.

"Lord Qin personally sent a number of precious medicinal herbs, wishing Your Highness a speedy recovery."

Ping'an said this, which means Yunling must have checked the things Qin Duanyu sent.

"Since it's a good intention, accept it."

The capital city had been shrouded in a strange oppression for a whole month, making it hard to breathe. The closer it got to the announcement of the results, the more candidates appeared on the official road in Qu'an looking towards the Princess's Mansion.

The princess who was in charge of supervising the exam was shot by an arrow and her life is unknown. The Minister of Rites was thrown into prison for accepting bribes, saying that he would wait until the matter was investigated, but the Dali Temple has made no progress.

Even so, on the day when the results were announced, there was still a huge crowd in front of the list, all of whom were candidates who came to see the results.

The only difference from the past is that there are fewer people who are looking for a son-in-law based on the list this year. I think it is because of the lost paper roll, and because Minister He is corrupt and even cheats in the imperial examinations, those merchant families are afraid of catching a fake one and ruining the foundation they have worked so hard to build.

Liang Chongyue stood at the highest point of Wangjiang Tower, quietly watching the excitement in front of the list. Li Yuan went down to preside over this matter on her behalf. At this time, she only needed to wait and listen to the joyful cheers of the candidates.

"Is everything ready?"

Liang Chongyue and Li Yu'an looked at each other and asked Ping'an.

"Your Highness, everything is ready. Grand Tutor Li has prepared everything. We just need to wait for the results to be announced, and then the truth will be revealed."

The last time Minister He got into trouble, not all the people behind him were implicated. Today, Liang Chongyue will stand in the busiest restaurant in the capital, watching the rising stars in the political arena of Daxia, and watching those people fall from grace.

"Your Highness, the time has come."

Yun Ling's voice rang in her ears, and the red silk on the apricot list with the candidates' scores fell down. The candidates who were chatting with each other just now suddenly fell silent, and only the red lists were in their eyes.

If the officers and soldiers hadn't stopped them, they would have rushed forward and lay down to watch.

"Your Highness, I noticed that the expressions of the candidates over there seemed a little strange."

Liang Chongyue looked in the direction of Yun Ling's finger, and indeed saw several candidates with strange expressions standing in the crowd. However, they were not interested in their rankings on the Xingbang, and were just whispering to each other.

"Don't worry about them. The capital has been in turmoil lately. Someone must be trying to take advantage of the situation to cause trouble. Li Cejun will take care of it."

The day before the results were announced, Liang Chongyue and Li Yu'an discussed all matters for the day, and even imagined what might happen today.

The fire in the Imperial Examination Hall must have involved more than just Minister He. After all, Minister He's eyes and courage have been blinded by power and money over the years. How could he have the courage to send someone to shoot her?

Minister He is now in prison, and the people outside are even more anxious than he is. Every time something is revealed about what happened back then, it means someone will have to go in and accompany Minister He.

The Imperial Examination Hall was burned down and the rolls of papers were lost. The only person these people wanted to deal with was Minister He who couldn't control his mouth in prison.

Now it is the day for the results to be announced. The appearance of the Xingbang is telling these people that only the burning of the Imperial Examination Hall is real, the scrolls of papers were not lost, and their powerful Princess Royal may not be in any trouble either.

Therefore, the burning of the houses of the officials involved was His Highness's revenge for the burning of the Tribute Hall.
