Chapter 2649: The case of candidates before the second imperial examination, the imperial examination candidates of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

 Guo Jiada knew from the beginning that the Governor of Heibingtai was not a good job, so he was so resistant to the team that took over Jia Xu, but His Majesty chose to take a fancy to him as a prodigal son, and he looked like he was the only one who could do it.

Ying Hao naturally understands Guo Jia's temperament, and also knows that he really doesn't want to take over Black Ice Platform, but the successors trained by Jia Xu have not yet grown up. Among the first generation of four secret agents, Guo Jia, the Xuanzi No. 1 secret agent, is enough. Qualified to succeed Jia Xu.

Then if Guo Jia doesn’t go up, who will?

Even if Ying Hao knew that Guo Jia was unwilling, he could only aggrieve Guo Jia first. Chen Ping still needed to continue his qualifications, and Xu Shu's lurking mission had not been completed yet. He still needed time to grow until both of them could be used together. At that moment, Guo Jia was naturally able to relieve himself of his burden.

Guo Jia also knew that except for himself, no one seemed to be able to take over from Jia Xu, and His Majesty acted like he had to do it, so even if he didn't want to, he would have no choice but to bite the bullet.

After taking over Heibingtai, as Guo Jia expected, the days of comfort and ease were gone forever, replaced by overtime and overtime.

 In addition, Guo Jia's interpersonal relationships have also changed from being a favorite to being disliked by thousands of people today.

Colleagues who used to have a good relationship with him now hide away when they see him, as if they are afraid of being targeted by Hei Bingtai and Jinyiwei.

In the past, every time Guo Jia went to Taixue, the students were enthusiastic and cheered.

 But now even these students are staying away from him, and their evaluation of him behind his back is getting worse and worse.

 Guo Jia now understands what Jia Xu has been burdened with, and why he smiled so happily when he left office. The Black Ice Platform tmd that this person hates is a big pit.

No matter how much Guo Jia despises Heibingtai, Heibingtai is still his natal family in the final analysis, and he has already boarded the pirate ship and will not be able to get off in a short time, so he can only hope that the people below can live up to his expectations. , let him get out of the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible.

 Guo Jia stood on the imperial city and looked at the students in front of the parade, with a sneer on his handsome face.

“I let you students hide behind the scenes to organize the work of the Governor, and now you will fall into the hands of the Governor.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly flashed behind him, it was Black and White Xuanjian.

Xuanjian cupped his fists and half-knelt in salute, saying, "Sir, those students who guide public opinion and mislead the people have been targeted by our people. Should we arrest them immediately?"

After thinking about it, Guo Jialiu shook his head and said: "Arresting students in front of the people will have a bad impact. It is better to disperse the people first and then arrest them separately. Anyway, the city gate is closed and they can't escape."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

After Xuanjian responded, he disappeared in front of Guo Jia the next second.

Also on the tower of the imperial city, a girl wearing a brocade dress and pink carvings said with excitement: "After living in Luoyang for so long, except for the time when the country was founded, this is the second time for the people to This is the first such large-scale parade.”

She is none other than the eldest princess Ying Hao, the princess Taiping of the Qin Dynasty, and Ying Hongye.

Ying Hongye naturally did not come out to watch the fun alone. She was accompanied by the eldest prince Jinyang Wang Yingying and the second princess Leping Princess Ying Chengxin.

Among the three children, Ying Hongye, Ying Chengxin, and Ying Ying, Ying Hongye was born in the sixth year of Zhongping (189), while Ying Chengxin and Ying Ying were both born in the first year of Chuping (190). But now It is the fourth year of Shenwu (199).

In other words, among the twenty-eight princes and daughters of Ying Hao, the eldest daughter Ying Hongye is ten years old, Ying Chengxin and Ying Ying are both nine years old, and the youngest Ying Sheng, Ying Xi and other children are only One year old.

Seeing the people marching outside the imperial city, Ying Hongye felt nothing but pride and pride, because this was an expression of the people's patriotism.

But in the eyes of Leping Princess Ying Chengxin, it was a different scene, because her mother-in-law, Wei Concubine Xiahou Qingyi, was also among the "Five Concubines" denounced by the people.

Ying Chengxin naturally knew that the people were parading in the streets because they were patriotic, but what did Wei and Song have to do with her mother and concubine if they broke their alliance? But the people vented their anger on her mother and concubine, which made her feel angry and aggrieved at a young age.

“There must be someone behind it.” Ying Cheng said angrily.

When Ying Hongye heard this, she didn't understand the deeper meaning and subconsciously retorted: "Sister, it's a good thing that people are patriotic. How can you say that?"

"If there wasn't someone behind the plan, how could the news spread so fast?" Ying Cheng asked heartily.

"this…"

Ying Hongye actually agreed with what her sister said. After all, Wei and Song rebelled against the alliance, and Da Qin also needed the support of domestic public opinion, so it could legitimately send troops to attack Wei and Song, so it was okay to plan such an incident.

But it is one thing to agree with it, but it is another thing to say it openly and to oppose the military state in a rough way.

Ying Hongye immediately refuted her sister, but the two of them were not talking about the same thing at all. Naturally, no one could convince the other. They started arguing and even asked her younger brother Ying Ying to be the referee.

“Third brother, who says more between the eldest sister and the second sister?” Ying Hongye said.

“Yes, third brother, you are here to comment.” Ying Chengxin said.

"this…"

Ying Ying hesitated and couldn't speak. After all, it was not good to support anyone, so he only expressed bitterness in his heart.

While the three children were arguing about this, the people marching outside the city had almost dispersed.

After Guo Jia's order was conveyed, the garrison and the Jin Yiwei who maintained public order in the city began to expel the parade in an orderly manner on the grounds of maintaining public order.

 “Folks, please disperse, the Wei and Song Dynasties rebelled against the alliance, and the court is also very angry...”

Jinyiwei commanded Qian Shi Shen Lian, holding a large trumpet, standing on a high platform, and shouted to the people below: "Wei and Song Dynasties will definitely not end well, but if you continue to cause trouble, you will be committing a disturbance." For public security offenses, I will invite you to the Jinyiwei Yamen for tea.” As a model worker in the Jinyiwei, there are very few people in Luoyang who don’t know Shen Lian, and he calmed everyone down as soon as he opened his mouth.

Most of the people came to join in the fun. Although they were angry about the rebellion of the Wei and Song Dynasties, they were not so angry that they ignored the law. Therefore, as soon as they heard that it would violate the public security law, most of the people dispersed voluntarily.

As for those very few people who would rather break the law and still march, they are naturally caught in the Jinyiwei prison, locked up for a few days, and then released calmly and calmly. After all, this is not a serious crime.

As for those students who guided public opinion, seeing the end of the government and the people dispersed, they could only go back to their homes with unfinished thoughts. However, they did not expect that before they even entered their homes, several unkind guards came to their homes. .

"Song Si?" Jin Yichuan asked with a cold face.

When the candidate Song Si heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "This is Song Si, the common man. I wonder what the official has to do?"

Jin Yichuan didn't waste any time. He took out the arrest warrant and said, "Song Si, you are suspected of fooling the people and endangering national security. Please come with us."

　　“This, it’s unfair, it’s unfair…”

The same scene happened all over Luoyang at the same time. Hundreds of students and candidates were "invited" to the Jinyiwei Yamen for investigation. Most of them were disciples from poor families, which naturally frightened all the candidates.

Hai Rui felt both happy and angry when he saw his classmates who were rushing to take the exam together were taken away by the Jin Yiwei. Fortunately, he was not involved in this incident, but he was angry because he felt that the competition methods of the children of the aristocratic family were too clumsy.

 After the parade, several classmates also came to Hai Rui, asking him to help mobilize the people to publicize it, saying that this was a good opportunity to become famous, and it might become a bonus in the scientific examination.

Hai Rui was frightened when he heard this. After all, instigating the people and guiding public opinion is a big or small matter. At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder who the wise man came up with such a bad idea. Isn't this obviously a scam?

Hai Rui only found out after repeated inquiries that this bad idea was proposed by a disciple from an aristocratic family.

The examinee was worried that he would fail the scientific examination. It happened to coincide with the major event of the Wei and Song Dynasties rebelling against each other, so he suddenly came up with such a bad idea. Unexpectedly, he got a lot of knowledge, but he wanted to We need the approval of the poor students in high school in this imperial examination

Hai Rui naturally saw the hidden dangers of this bad idea at a glance, so he immediately persuaded his classmates to stop.

 Some people listened to the advice, but more people not only did not listen to the advice, but even accused Hai Rui of being nosy.

In the eyes of these candidates, Hai Rui just stood up and spoke without pain in his back. After all, Hai Rui was the best among all the candidates. Even if he didn't bother to use such small means to take the exam normally, he could still be successful. But they didn't have the confidence. So naturally some special methods are needed to overtake in corners.

Hai Rui tried to persuade her to no avail, and finally watched helplessly as her classmates were imprisoned.

As for the disciples from the aristocratic family who proposed this bad idea, although they were also arrested by the Jin Yiwei, not many candidates who were disciples of the aristocratic families were arrested. On the contrary, most of the candidates who were arrested were candidates from poor families.

It is hard not to make Hai Rui suspect that the candidates from aristocratic families are deliberately using this incident to deceive the poor candidates, so that there will be fewer competitors in the scientific examination, and their chances of high school will naturally be greater.

Zhang Juzheng, who was also a candidate for the second imperial examination, smiled bitterly after hearing Hai Rui's speculation: "Brother Hai, you are a bit prejudiced against aristocratic families."

 Zhang Juzheng was implanted as the son of Zhang Jiuling, and Zhang Jiuling was also born in a poor family. Therefore, even though he was the son of an earl, Zhang Juzheng was closer to the disciples from the poor family among the candidates, but alienated himself from the rich family members such as Su Fengji, Xun Feng, and Wu Sansi.

“Brother Zhang, tell me why among the candidates arrested this time, there are only a few dozen from aristocratic families, while there are as many as two to three hundred from poor families?” Hai Rui asked.

Zhang Juzheng did not answer directly, but asked instead: "Brother Hai, can you explain that it was a bad idea proposed by candidates from aristocratic families, but why were more candidates from poor families participating?"

 Hai Rui was speechless for a moment.

At the same time, in a high-end restaurant in Luoyang.

Su Fengji, Xun Feng, Wu Sansi and other candidates from prominent families also gathered together to discuss the incident of the candidates being arrested.

Xun Feng, as a member of the Xun family, coupled with his outstanding talents, is recognized as the seed of the top three, and has become the faint leader among the candidates of this family.

Xun Feng glanced at the people below and asked, "Is there anyone here who is participating?"

　　　“Since there is none.”

"With our status, how can we lower ourselves to fight with those mud-legged people?"

"Yeah yeah…"

Most people directly deny it, but a few people are uneasy. .

Someone asked with a guilty conscience: "Brother Feng, is this matter really so serious? So many people have been arrested."

"Haha, you are really powerful. Hundreds of students instigated tens of thousands of people to parade in the streets, and they even dared to shout such rebellious slogans as 'Abolish the Fifth Concubine'. So next time, should we abolish the Crown Prince and His Majesty?" Xun Feng said coldly.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of many people present changed instantly. They were all educated people who had read books. They naturally knew the weight of this sentence and what a stupid thing they had done.

Several people were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their bodies were shaking unconsciously. They were obviously involved in this incident, but they had not yet been approached by the Jin Yiwei.

Looking at these trembling classmates, Su Fengji knew that there was something wrong in their minds, and immediately advised: "Everyone, there is no secret that can be hidden from Heibingtai in Daqin. I advise you not to take any chances. Surrender at this time and you can still win." A lenient treatment, it will be too late if Hei Bingtai comes to your door. "

Those candidates from aristocratic families who had ulterior motives looked at each other in shock after hearing this, but no one moved. They were obviously still thinking about luck, but they didn't expect that they were blocked at the entrance of the restaurant by Jin Yiwei's people before they finished their meal.
