Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

The palace gate slowly opened and a carriage galloped out.

Ran straight to the examination room.

This examination room was the same one used for the written examination to select the chief general of the Beijing Camp. However, in order to accommodate the small number of generals from the Northwest Frontier, each examination room was expanded a lot.

It is spacious and bright, and consists of a bedroom and a dining room.

The Northwestern generals arrived outside the examination hall one after another.

At this time, these people had already taken off their armor, and after honestly undergoing the inspection, they entered the examination room.

The carriage Ye Chen was in stopped at a distance from the entrance of the examination hall.

He observed the generals from a distance through the car window.

After finding that all the generals were relatively well-behaved and had all entered the examination room, he had the carriages circle around the examination room.

During this time, his eyes were always scanning everything around the examination room.

He saw that every secluded corner around the examination room was guarded by soldiers in sharp armor.

He nodded slightly, Su Fu did a really good job on these things.

No mistakes.

After turning it around a few times, I confirmed that there was no problem.

The carriage drove towards a nearby restaurant.

This restaurant no longer accepts any guests.

Ye Chen entered the restaurant from the back door, walked into the private room on the second floor, and stood by the window with his hands behind his back.

From this position, he could clearly see the inside of the examination room.

Lu Niudan, who had been in charge of the affairs of the Supervisory Department, walked into the private room respectfully, holding tea and snacks in his hands.

He came to Ye Chen, bowed slightly, and said respectfully: “Your Majesty, our people have been monitoring the examination room.

No problems have been found so far.”

Hearing this, Ye Chen nodded slightly without saying anything.

His eyes were still looking out the window, and he exuded a majestic aura.

Lu Niudan put down the tea and snacks, stood aside, bowed his head, and remained respectful at all times.

After a moment, Ye Chen suddenly spoke slowly: "This assessment must be fair and just. I will not tolerate any cheating."

His voice was deep and powerful, full of imperial majesty.

Lu Niu Dan nodded quickly and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. We will strictly supervise you from the dark."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, still very satisfied in his heart.

These generals in the northwest are quite sensible.

Ye Chen also began to think about his next plan.

He planned to recruit some children from poor families and hold a small imperial examination after assessing the Northwest General.

He knew very well that Yang Dechang, as the prime minister and a veteran minister of several dynasties, was forming a clique for personal gain and had too many followers.

Ye Chen couldn't let this situation continue.

He wanted to break the monopoly of Yang Dechang and his cronies on official positions by selecting young people from poor families through the imperial examination.

Just when Ye Chen had made up his mind, he suddenly found some people walking quickly to the gate and wall of the examination room.

These people were all dressed like Confucian scholars, carrying wooden barrels in their hands.

Ye Chen frowned slightly at first, looking at those aggressive Confucian scholars, and felt that something was wrong.

Then I saw the Confucian scholars picking up wooden barrels and knocking them towards the soldiers who were trying to stop them from moving forward.

The black and yellow filth quickly spread out.

The incident happened suddenly!

Ye Chen immediately realized that these Confucian scholars were causing trouble.

"Lu Niudan, take people and capture these people immediately! Don't let them escape!"

He actually threw feces, urine and black dog blood into the examination room.

Ye Chen was angry. He immediately gave an order. His voice was cold and full of majesty. The aura emanating from him was captivating.

"Yes!"

Lu Niu Dan went downstairs immediately.

He led his men into action quickly. Although the Confucian scholars ran away after being splashed with dog blood and feces and urine, they were surrounded by imperial guards and yamen runners dressed as civilians, so they had no way of escaping.

After being caught, these people continued to struggle and curse, showing no sign of fear at all.

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from an oil shop not far away.

"This method destroys the righteousness of the world! I, Bai Guangde, will die today to warn the world!"

Hearing this, Ye Chen immediately looked towards the oil shop.

Suddenly, a Confucian scholar was seen holding a torch high.

This Confucian scholar named Bai Guangde had a haggard face, but his eyes were full of determination.

He was wearing a messy Confucian robe, and many oil drums were overturned on the ground and around him. In addition to oil, there were also a lot of dry firewood piled around him.

This guy seemed to be about to set himself on fire in the store.

Ye Chen's face darkened, and he ordered: "Shen Qiu, take people over and save them if you can!"

Shen Qiu's eyes revealed determination and courage. When she heard Ye Chen's order, she went downstairs without hesitation.

The next moment, Shen Qiu rushed towards the shop like a gust of wind.

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows when he saw that the fire in the shop had already started.

Shen Qiu had also rushed into the store.

The next moment, before the fire spread, Shen Qiu pulled Bai Guangde out of the fire.

"Tsk."

Ye Chen pursed his lips.

I just think his Qiu'er is really good at martial arts.

After being taken out by Shen Qiu, the Confucian scholar kept struggling and shouting.

"If this method is released, the world will be in chaos! My death is not a pity!"

"Stop their mouths!"

Ye Chen, who had already gone downstairs, had a look of rage in his eyes. He said in a voice as cold as thunder, "Bring these people here. I want to interrogate them personally!"

The next moment, the mouths of these Confucian scholars were gagged with sackcloth, making them unable to speak, and they were all taken to the restaurant.
