Ji Xiaolan: Kill Qianlong at the beginning

Mo Li thought of something and looked at He Shen, saying, "Master He, once the imperial examination is held, it will cut off your financial resources. Why are you so happy?"

He Shen smiled and said, "I have changed my mind. Now I not only support the special examination, but I have also taken the initiative to ask the emperor to be the chief examiner of this special examination."

Mo Li sneered and said, "Dream on! The Emperor won't agree to this."

He Shen looked at him and said, "How do you know? The emperor really didn't agree at the beginning."

Mo Li asked, "How is it?"

He Shen continued, "But, there are so many things going on in the court, and I, He Shen, have to worry about everything."

Mo Li said, "That's true. You and my lord have extended your hands far enough. My lord, Enke is the only clean place left in the Great Xuan Kingdom. I beg you this time, I beg you, please save your energy." He bowed.

He Shen smiled and said, "Look at what you said, but I think that the emperor attaches so much importance to the Enke, which is like the most important thing in the world. Think about it, can I, He Shen, turn a blind eye to the things that the emperor attaches great importance to? Can I just let it go? Can I turn a deaf ear to it? So I asked the emperor again, and finally, the emperor finally agreed to let me be the chief examiner of the Enke."

Mo Li exclaimed, "Agreed?"

Heshen laughed heartily and said, "Old Mo, you said I was really confused in the past. I really didn't take the imperial examination seriously. Now I understand that it is a big deal. We used to say, 'Books contain golden houses, books contain beautiful women, books contain thousands of bushels of millet, and books contain many carriages and horses.'"

Mo Li looked desperate and said, "In your book, there are promises of a golden house, a beautiful wife, and plenty of carriages and horses, all of which are meant to make people come after you..."

He hesitated to speak, thought for a moment and said, "I understand, sir. You want others to bribe you, the examiner, right?"

He Shen said sternly: "Don't say that. I tell you, I didn't say that. You are slandering the Prime Minister of the dynasty. What is your crime? You can't say that."

Mo Li cupped his hands and said, "Master He, I beg you once again, please don't think about taking the imperial examination."

He Shen returned the greeting with a bow and said, "Lord Mo, I'm so sorry. I've already started beating you."

Mo Li turned away with a sad look on his face.

He Shen continued, "Look, it's actually your fault. If you hadn't been so busy organizing the imperial examination, I wouldn't have thought of this. You said it's been so many years, how could I have forgotten... such a big piece of... fat meat like the imperial examination. Tell me."

Mo Li said loudly: "It's terrible... Ouch..."

Du Xiaoyue heard the cry, came over with a tea bowl, and said, "Brother Li, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

He Shen pointed at Mo Li, and Mo Li pointed at him. He Shen smiled but said nothing.

Du Xiaoyue looked at him and said, "Hey, Heshen, what's going on? What did you do to our brother Li again?"

He Shen said, "What can I do to him? He is just howling like a ghost. Look at his behavior."

Du Xiaoyue handed the tea bowl to Mo Li and said, "Brother Li, have some tea."

He Shen said, "Xiao Yue, you didn't even prepare hot tea for me when I came. Is this how you treat guests at the Mo Mansion?"

Du Xiaoyue said, "Heshen, do you still want to drink tea? Go drink the northwest wind."

"You..." Heshen was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Mo Li didn't even reach out to take the tea bowl, but instead said, "Oh, how miserable are the scholars in the world."
