Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl

Chapter 258 Double Breakthrough (Please book in full, please monthly ticket)

With a casual throw, the sky-shattering ancient clock was thrown over.

Zhang Ronghua smiled and said, "I'll see you off."

Yang Hongling took it and played with it. It was quite exquisite and powerful. He handed it over with his backhand: "No! The spirit treasure in my hand is enough. You are different. The further the Chaos Body is cultivated, the more spirit treasures are needed. Without the spirit treasure, Bao Xiangzhu wants to improve his physical body and it is difficult to reach the sky."

Zhang Ronghua didn't insist, knowing that she was thinking about him, he stretched out his fingers and scratched the beautiful woman's nose: "I will teach you the clear vision and clear eyesight."

Poof!

Yang Hongling held her belly with both hands and smiled exaggeratedly. The laughter like silver bells spread around: "Are you serious?"

explained.

"If I haven't mastered the magical powers of three heads and six arms, the law of heaven and earth, and the five elements of freedom, etc., and I devote my energy to cultivating them, do you think I am a pervert like you?"

"Lied to me?"

"Heck~!" Yang Hongling smiled even more happily.

boom!

Zhang Ronghua knocked a chestnut over her. Not satisfied, he ruffled her hair again and then gave up. His cold eyes fell on Chi Tian and others.

Stretching out his palm, the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Sutra circulated, and the golden light shone around them, swallowing the cultivation base. Not all of them were swallowed, but a little was left behind. Then the sword energy was cut down and killed.

Yang Hongling stepped forward, waved her jade hand, and put everything into the purse at her waist.

Zhang Ronghua looked expectant: "The Kunpeng family has been passed down for so long, let's see if there are any good things."

The two entered the hall side by side.

After a lot of scraping, he got a lot of things, especially the Kunpeng family inheritance, which was of greatest value to him, and there were also many other good things.

After a while, it stopped outside the cold pool.

Yang Hongling asked, "Can it be put away?"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Try it!"

The sealing magic has been practiced to perfection in the four realms, and it is only one step away from returning to the original nature in the fifth realm. If it is not possible, if the formation is dismantled and destroyed, it will be a waste of natural resources and a paradise.

Twirling with both hands, as fast as lightning, a series of seals fell on the cold pool, swallowing the true essence quickly consumed, the power of the supreme god and magic technique was manifested at this moment, and it operated to the extreme, refining the aura of the surrounding world to recover It was not known how long it took for it to consume itself, and the power of ten thousand seals formed a golden net to cover it.

"rise!"

The spiritual light rotated and all its power exploded, forcibly sealing the cold pool. It quickly became smaller at a speed visible to the naked eye, and dozens of breaths later.

Hantan transformed into the size of a baby's palm and appeared in his hand. At this time, the sealing magic also broke through to the fifth realm and returned to nature.

Yang Hongling was surprised: "Is it really sealed?"

Zhang Ronghua said seriously: "I didn't expect it to be so powerful. It is indeed Fu Qi's famous magical power!"

The Dongtian and the Five Dragon Yuling Belt (Xumi Bag) cannot be put together, and the power of space repels them, so they are easily put into the arms.

Looking at the sky, it will be a while before dark.

Zhang Ronghua asked: "How much did you understand from the battle just now?"

"The harvest is great." Yang Hongling said.

"You refine the cultivation abilities of Ancestor Kunyi and the others first, and then tell me about them later."

"Okay!" Zhang Ronghua agreed.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he ran the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Sutra to drive away the impurities, leaving about one-tenth of it, which he then refined to make it stronger.

He didn't stop, continued to practice, and took out the ancient clock that shook the sky. Just as Yang Hongling said, more spiritual treasures are needed to break through the physical body.

Tuntian Zhenyuan rushed out, turned into a huge mouth to swallow it, and the chaos tempering technique worked to refine the spirit treasure into liquid, tempering the body from the inside to the outside, without missing a single place.

When it stops, its strength, defense, and speed increase again, and it's just a short step away from breaking through.

Yang Hongling frowned: "No breakthrough?"

Zhang Ronghua said: "It's still a little bit worse."

"How about swallowing the spiritual treasure?"

"No need!" Zhang Ronghua heard the deep meaning in his words.

Whether it is herself or her, the spiritual treasure in her hand is very powerful and is used for fighting. After devouring it, it will be difficult to find someone who can take advantage of it.

"If you polish it for a while, your martial arts and physical body will be able to break through."

Yang Hongling shook his head, and did not agree, what happened last night once is enough, and if someone still bullies the younger, it is very dangerous for him to have no one to protect him.

She patted the purse on her waist with her jade hand, took out a thunder calamity elixir, ten thousand-year elixirs, and more than twenty elixirs worth more than five thousand years, and handed them over.

He said seriously: "These elixirs, combined with what we obtained in the East China Sea, should allow you to further your martial arts."

Zhang Ronghua looked curious: "Where did it come from?"

Yang Hongling said with reason: "I got it from the academy's treasure house."

"Don't do this next time."

"What's wrong with using a little of my own stuff?"

After taking these elixirs and taking out the elixirs they had previously obtained from the East China Sea, the God-Slaying Witch Ancestor and the Kunpeng clan didn't have much, and they all ate them.

Zhang Ronghua swallowed the elixir with his mouth open, and then refined it with the Heaven Swallowing Demon Sutra. A huge torrent of medicinal power swam through his body, countless golden lights rushed out, and evolved into various visions. He lived up to expectations. Go one step further and break through to the fifth level of the Sealed Heaven Realm.

Seeing that she was about to take something out of her purse again, she hurriedly stopped her.

"No! I have it."

Yang Hongling didn't believe it, her beautiful jewel-like eyes looked at her: "Really?"

Zhang Ronghua did not speak, pondered for a moment, and took out the Blood Drinking Heavenly Knife and Qingtuo Buddha Beads. The former is an ordinary spiritual treasure, and the latter is a top-notch spiritual treasure. Without taking the Ten Thousand Poison God's Heavenly Pouch, according to estimates, refining them into the physical body can break through to The fifth level of Sealing Heaven Realm, operating the Chaos Tempering Technique as usual... A quarter of an hour later, it was just as expected.

After finishing the practice, he stood up from the ground and said with a smile: "It's done."

Yang Hongling asked: "After swallowing two spiritual treasures, do you have enough spiritual treasures in your hand?"

"enough."

"With your current strength, can you kill the second level of the Divine Heaven Realm in Ji Dao combat mode?"

Zhang Ronghua smiled slightly and showed his strong confidence: "Even if they are true spirits and ferocious beasts, killing them is as easy as slaughtering a dog!"

Wave!

Yang Hongling was happy, and like lightning, she kissed him on the face and stamped a seal: "I feel relieved now."

Zhang Ronghua said: "While I still have some time, I will tell you what I don't understand."

"Yeah." Yang Hongling nodded.

Ask what you don't understand.

Zhang Ronghua explained patiently, and after an hour, everyone had a clear understanding.

Yang Hong's soul was filled with blessings, and his face was serious, as serious as ever: "I'm going to make a breakthrough, help protect the law!"

"Okay!" Zhang Ronghua agreed.

A roll of majestic soul power creates a barrier around this place.

Yang Hongling didn't delay any longer, formed seals with his jade hands, and circulated the supreme ingenious heart formula, mobilizing his true energy and rushing forward, the golden light rushed out, like rice grains, circling around, the accumulation was enough, but he didn't have enough comprehension of the Dao, just now When everything is complete, it will come true. A crisp sound of breaking can be heard. The bottleneck blocking the front is shattered, and the breakthrough to the heavenly realm is achieved.

A roll of spiritual energy from the surrounding world, with her as the center, surged towards this side, forming a huge whirlpool of spiritual energy and transferred it into the body, where it was all refined.

See here.

Zhang Ronghua put his heart down, smiled deeply, and praised in his heart: "You are worthy of being the genius of Destiny Academy, your talent is really terrible."

Solid cultivation.

Yang Hongling stood up and raised her chin proudly: "This girl has made a breakthrough!"

Zhang Ronghua smiled and said: "Congratulations!"

"This girl can fly!"

"Try?"

"Does this need to be said?"

Zhang Ronghua put away his soul barrier, and Yang Hongling looked at the sky, eager to try. He had been waiting for this day for a long time, and after practicing hard until now, he could finally reach the sky.

Just as he was about to fly, he remembered something, turned his head, and reminded: "Watch carefully. If I fall, I will catch it."

Zhang Ronghua suppressed his smile: "Don't worry."

By running the supreme ingenious heart formula, mobilizing her true energy, and breaking through to the sky-climbing state, Yang Hongling had already understood the flying method, as if she was born with it, with a little bit of jade, she turned into a golden light and rushed towards the sky.

In the first test flight, I didn't control the strength well. The speed was very fast, and it exploded wildly. It rushed towards the nine heavens and reached the depths of the clouds in a few breaths.

I have been taken to fly by Zhang Ronghua so many times, and I usually have my grandpa to point me out. I am no stranger to it. I have mastered the tricks, and there is no sign of falling. It is like a bird that is free and unrestrained, moving and flashing between the sky and the earth. It is a joy to play. Almost.

Something embarrassing happened!

Although the Supreme Miao Xin Jue cultivated is powerful, it is still an ancient method, but in terms of the strength of the true essence, it cannot be compared with the gods and demons, and it has just broken through, and the realm is not high. When there is not enough, he loses his balance instantly and falls downwards.

The fierce wind blew her skirt upwards, revealing two white and tender legs.

Not afraid, but feeling excited, he opened his arms as if to hug something, and shouted down: "Hurry up and catch it!"

call out!

Zhang Ronghua soared into the sky in an instant and hugged her in mid-air. Yang Hongling put her two jade hands around his neck and kissed her directly.

Gradually……!

Zhang Ronghua's hand stretched out where it shouldn't be, but this time he didn't stop it. Seeing that it was getting more and more excessive, he actually wanted to go too far, so impatient, Yang Hongling took a hard bite.

Under pain.

Zhang Ronghua had no choice but to stop, and the two of them reached the ground, and said angrily: "Bite again!"

Yang Hongling pouted and punched him with a pink fist: "I'll give you some color, and you dare to kick your nose in the face."

After the fun.

After eating Kunpeng BBQ, it was getting dark.

Yang Honglin sighed: "Time flies so fast. I don't know when I will come out next time."

Zhang Ronghua held her catkins: "You can do it anytime you want."

Yang Hongling responded with satisfaction: "Let's go!"

Zhang Ronghua took her into Jiutian and rushed towards the capital.

There was no rush, so I flew leisurely.

It's early morning.

The two entered the capital silently, without disturbing anyone, and stopped at the entrance of Destiny Academy.

Yang Hongling asked, "Go in and sit down?"

Zhang Ronghua shook his head: "No! The imperial examination will be held tomorrow. Go to bed early tonight."

"Pay attention to safety." Waving his hand, leaving a silhouette behind, Yang Hongling entered the academy.

Wait until the big sister disappears.

Duan Jiu and Mei Changshu came forward to greet them. The former smiled happily and couldn't hide his smile. He extended his palms and said proudly: "I won!"

Mei Changshu was heartbroken and reluctantly took out a pot of Tianqiong Yu brew and handed it over. He looked at Zhang Ronghua and said with a bitter face: "Elder brother, can't you come back earlier?"

"???" Zhang Ronghua was puzzled, with a question mark on his head.

Deliberately sullen.

"Tell me in detail!"

Duan Jiu told the story again.

Knowing that they were going out to play, they made a bet to guess when they would come back.

Duan Jiu's bet was after midnight, and Mei Changshu's bet was before midnight, betting on a pot of Tianqiongyu brew.

Zhang Ronghua's face darkened: "You are so brave, you even dare to make our jokes."

"Eldest brother, we were wrong!"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Lao Jiu will come over tomorrow and each of us will eat a candied haws of sugar-coated haws. It's so sour!"

"Ah!" The two frowned.

Before he could open his mouth to plead, Zhang Ronghua turned around and left. When he reached a place where no one was around, the corners of his mouth turned up and he smiled jokingly, as if he saw the scene where they insisted on eating even though they obviously didn't want to eat it.

Return to the house.

Zheng Qingyu stood guard at the door, as if waiting for it. Seeing the master coming back, she quickly stepped forward to close the courtyard door, and said in a low voice, "Master Huo has a message, let this servant give you this!"

Take out a letter and seal it with wax.

Zhang Ronghua did not check it immediately. He walked towards the backyard with the letter and asked, "Did something happen in the capital on the day when I was away?"

"everything is normal."

Talking room to the outside of the room.

The original bedroom had been repaired. Zheng Qingyu stepped forward and opened the door, waiting for the master to go in and follow him.

Pull out the chair.

Zhang Ronghua sat down, poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and asked, "Has His Majesty's decree been passed down?"

Zheng Qingyu said: "It was passed down in the early court."

Said it in detail.

Li Zhong and others were executed in secret, and the others were dealt with severely. Those who were killed were exiled, and all family properties were confiscated.

This time Zhang Ronghua launched a general offensive and endured so much pressure that he offended all the factions. He even broke up with the Taishi and Taibao. In the end, they met with each other and the majority was captured by their faction.

Zheng Fu was promoted to the third rank, and was appointed as the governor of the Central Army. He was in charge of the first army and commanded 20,000 soldiers and horses.

Chen Youcai was transferred to Tianji Pavilion and served as the head of the palace. He was still from the second rank, and he held more authority and more gold.

After listening.

Zhang Ronghua nodded with satisfaction. With this official reshuffle, the power of him, Pei Caihuai and the prince had completely penetrated below, and their influence was even greater.

Open the envelope, take out the letter inside, and read it carefully.

He raised his eyebrows and realized that Huo Jingyun had really gained something. There was exciting news. Headed by the Jinzhou Zhao family, the five states' aristocratic families had united to try to manipulate the imperial examination.

The introduction is very complete. There are five top three aristocratic families in the five states, as well as vassal families. They plotted for a long time and selected two groups of people. One group was talented and had real materials; the other group was uneducated and fished in troubled waters. They only know how to eat, drink and have fun. On the day of the exam, after the exam, two people are paired up, one is good and the other is bad, a total of twenty-six pairs, and they write each other's names.

This way.

After the results are released, scholars with excellent academic performance will be able to muddle through if others ask them why they failed the test.

A person with poor grades suddenly enters high school. There are not just one person, but more than 20 people. Even normal people know that there is something evil and there will definitely be trouble.

At this time, the second step of their plan began. They sent people to mobilize and publicize the matter, making the matter known to everyone and causing an uproar. They could not suppress it even if they wanted to.

At that time, in order to calm the anger of scholars all over the world, someone will definitely come out and take the blame.

The prince is the chief examiner and he is the deputy. It is impossible for the former to take the blame. The unlucky one is himself. No matter how much contribution he has made in the past and what his position is, he can only expose this matter by fighting to the end.

The whole plan.

What they have to pay is just a chance to take the imperial examination. If they fail this year, they can continue to take the exam next year, and the impact will not be great.

Close the letter.

Zhang Ronghua guessed the purpose of the Wuzhou Family's action. The reform of the academy seemed to be in the past. During this period, with the promotion in the capital, various government orders were implemented, and the villages and towns under the government's jurisdiction enjoyed the real benefits, and the voices became louder and louder. , even if some people in the court want to suppress it, they cannot suppress it. When it breaks out, when the time is ripe, they can push it to the lower states and force them to reform. Even if someone stops them, facing the people of the world, they are just trying to block the car. , Vulnerable to one blow, died a miserable death, ranging from ransacking the family, to severely exterminating the three clans.

If he falls by himself and falls on this matter, without him in the Shangjing government, Ding Yi and Tie Changlin alone cannot control the situation, and their prestige and deterrence are not enough.

The Wuzhou family took the opportunity to unite with their hostile factions, and more than half of them might seize the position of Fu Yin, so that the impact of this matter could be minimized.

besides.

Everything he has done before, whether it is two drinks, two elixirs and one introduction, plus a food street and a cultivator street, are all rich political achievements. If he continues to develop step by step, he will be a great achievement, and his promotion is a sure thing.

Seeing that the master's face was very cold and his eyes flickered, Zheng Qingyu asked, "What is recorded in the letter?"

Zhang Ronghua handed over the letter.

Taking it, Zheng Qingyu looked at it carefully and read it over and over again. His beautiful face was replaced by anger, and his murderous intent was soaring: "These guys don't want to die, they actually set up such a poisonous plan!"

Zhang Ronghua didn't expect it. He just thought something was wrong. The Zhao family's reaction was unexpected. They sent people to investigate. Who would have thought that they had caught a big fish? The Huo family spent a lot of money this time. Otherwise, even if they had connections in Jinzhou, they would not be able to do it. The investigation was so clear in such a short period of time.

"Let them have a good time, take this opportunity to wipe out all of them, promote the reform of the world's academies, and let the benefits fall on the common people."

Zheng Qingyu asked: "You want us to take action?"

"No need!" Zhang Ronghua refused.

"Guangming is not suitable to participate in official struggles. Once it is exposed to us, it will not benefit us. It will be difficult to develop as fast as now."

"My slave understands!"

Zhang Ronghua took out the big Xumi bag of the God-Slaying Witch Ancestor and handed it over. In addition to the inheritance, the treasures of the Kunpeng clan were also inside, and he ordered: "Give it to Zheng Yi."

"Yes!" Zheng Qingyu responded.

Zhang Ronghua asked: "What is the layout of the four barbarian countries?"

"After His Majesty's sixty-sixth birthday, Yuan Lian Tianzun personally rushed to Manguo to preside over it. Judging from the news from there, it is proceeding in an orderly manner according to the plan. It will take some time to station troops."

"No rush!" Zhang Ronghua said.

"He Wenxuan is still arguing with Feng Zhengyi and the others, and the four countries are also looking for excuses to decline. This period of time is enough."

Zheng Qingyu said: "This servant waits for you to take a bath."

"Where are sisters Ma Ning and Ma Jing?"

"Slaves can do it too!"

"Okay!" Zhang Ronghua didn't think much about it.

a while.

Zheng Qingyu put the bathtub in the inner room. Tianxiangniu's water was sprinkled with red rose petals. It smelled very fragrant. He stretched out his jade hands and untied Zhang Ronghua's clothes. Waiting for him to go in, he rolled up his sleeves and took a towel to shower. , Jade hand wandered around, carefully and carefully, not missing a single place.

Seeing the old man lying on the bathtub with his beautiful eyes full of resentment, he sighed helplessly and put away his inappropriate thoughts.

After taking a shower.

Hearing the sound of closing the door, Zhang Ronghua rubbed his temples. One head has two big heads. The inheritance of the gods is too strong, especially the puppets refined by the magic of heaven. With the bodies of gods and demons, not to mention top-notch talents, they are no different from human beings and have their own emotions. it turns out……!

Take back your mind and stop thinking about it.

The Earth Escape Technique was used and turned into a golden light that escaped into the ground. When it reappeared, it stopped at the edge of the spiritual spring and looked at the time and space beads in the spring, continuously devouring the spiritual energy of the outside world.

"After raising you for so long, how powerful will you be when you are born?"

He took out the cave of the Kunpeng clan and grabbed it from the air. A terrifying suction force erupted from the palm of his hand, covering the spiritual spring and moving it inside, including the three defenses deployed before.

Go in again and put the Lingquan deep in the hall.

The spiritual energy in the cave is very strong. In this way, the time for the time and space bead to be born can be shortened.

A golden light fell down, erasing all traces of the spiritual spring, and then returned to the room.

Set up the plan for the Five States Family, think about it, take all aspects into consideration, and wait for them to be wiped out tomorrow. Sitting on the bed, use the Eternal Immortality Technique to polish the power of the soul and strive for an early breakthrough.

No need to go to court today.

Until dawn, just after breakfast, Ding Yi and Tie Changlin arrived together. Such a good thing, gaining qualifications for no reason, how could it not be without them?

"Brother (Master Hou)!"

Zhang Ronghua pointed to the stone bench: "Sit!"

Zheng Qingyu served tea and then left.

Ding Yi asked: "Brother, do you know?"

"Yeah." Zhang Ronghua responded.

His eyes fell on Meng Qing.

"What do you think?"

Logically speaking, his achievements during this period were enough to be promoted, but in the end he was not promoted and he was still a judge.

Tie Changlin said: "I believe in the Marquis!"

Zhang Ronghua patted his shoulder and continued: "This position is reserved for you."

"Ah!" Tie Changlin was shocked.

The rewards from the imperial court yesterday, the three factions have benefited a lot, but he stayed put, honestly, he had no objection in his heart, and the Fu Yin had no idea, everything the Marquis has done during this time, when he is transferred , all factions will definitely spare no effort to snatch it, and they have only a short time to surrender, so how can He De get this position?

Unexpectedly, the Marquis had himself in mind and even paved the way for the future.

I was moved and just about to speak.

Zhang Ronghua waved his hand and said again: "If you gild this position, you might be able to enter the Tianji Pavilion in the future, and at the end you can become a member of the Six Ministers."

Tie Changlin couldn't sit still anymore, stood up hurriedly, and bent down to the end: "I will not let you down!"

Not mentioning Ding Yi, the latter also understands that he will follow his brother and go wherever he goes, the kind of follower who is inseparable.

Zhang Ronghua said solemnly: "The Marquis has received news that the Zhao family of Jinzhou, headed by the family of the other four prefectures, is joining forces to make a fuss about today's imperial examination."

Both of them knew that he sent Mo Qian to investigate the matter.

Ding Yi asked: "Is there any news from Lao Mo?"

"No!" Zhang Ronghua shook his head.

"The Huo family has some connections in Jinzhou. Huo Jingyun happened to hear it the night before yesterday and took the initiative to help. He found clues and saw that I was not around, so he gave the letter to Qingyu."

Tell the story again.

Ding Yi smiled unkindly: "It's not good to live? Why do you want to die when you are so good?"

"Brother, have you made a plan?"

Zhang Ronghua instructed: "You go to the True Dragon Palace later and ask Murong An to bring some strong men over. When you get there, hide in the dark and don't let anyone find out. When the imperial examination starts, use the phonogram stone to secretly record the situation in the examination room."

"good!"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Studying is not easy, especially for people from poor families. They have to pay a lot to leap over the dragon's gate. This examination must be fair and just."

The business is over.

The three of them stood up and went about their business separately.

Zhang Ronghua led Tie Changlin towards the examination room, while Ding Yi drove him in a car to the True Dragon Palace.

inside the car.

Tie Changlin smiled and said, "Master Hou, the capital is crazy. Scholars collect your manuscripts and annotated articles at high prices to bet on them! The gambling house is also open, and the news is really well-informed. Listed out, whoever wins first place, third place, second place, number one will be given different ratios."

Zhang Ronghua asked, "Did you buy it?"

"Do you still remember Xu Ning?"

The black demon army destroyed the government's alchemy industry and rescued the beggar, who was later placed in Baijinyuan.

"you say."

Tie Changlin continued: "He is actually Fengzhou Tianjiao, and he is also a popular candidate. After the officials found out, even though the money is not much, they ordered someone to deposit two thousand taels."

Zhang Ronghua was curious: "This is not like your style."

"I believe in the Marquis. I bet on the general examination and the palace examination together. The bet is on the number one scholar. The odds are one to one hundred!"

"Aren't you afraid of losing money?"

"Your vision has always been accurate and you will never compensate!"

Zhang Ronghua smiled: "Benhou will also play with you."

He took out the 20,000 taels of silver bill and handed it to Uncle Shi.

"Find a bigger gambling house later and buy Xu Ning High School."

"Yes!" Shi Bo replied, putting away the bank notes.

Tie Changlin sighed: "Compared with the Marquis, this official is nothing compared to the big witch."

"His talent is indeed good, otherwise he wouldn't be able to win Jieyuan, but he was a bit unlucky. I hope this time there will be no mistakes and he can perform normally, otherwise our money will be in vain."

They looked at each other and smiled.

The car stopped at Wenlin Yuan, which was specially set up for the imperial examination. On weekdays, major events of the Imperial College and the Imperial College were held here.

The officers and soldiers of the Fifth City Defense Department have been under martial law, with three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry. The defense is airtight. In addition to them, there are strong men guarding the city to prevent unexpected situations from happening.

The leading guard is none other than Zheng Fugui.

When he saw his cousin coming, he stepped forward quickly. There were subordinates and candidates around him. They were clearly distinguished. He cupped his fists and saluted: "I have seen the Marquis and Master Tie!"

Zhang Ronghua was wearing a unicorn robe, with his hands behind his back, and asked: "Are the arrangements made?"

"All ready!"

"Murong An will bring people over later and let them in when they arrive."

"Yes!" Zheng Fugui replied.

Looking at the candidates next to him, there is still a while before the imperial examination starts, they all came very early, and the streets are full of people, Zhang Ronghua said: "Benhou is here to wish you high school in advance!"

Everyone was excited and thanked Lord Hou for his blessing.

Entered the courtyard and walked towards the backyard.

It is said to be a courtyard, which covers a huge area and forms a large area.

to the lobby.

The officials who were invigilating the examination had already arrived. Everyone stood up quickly and bowed in salute: "I have met the Marquis!"

Zhang Ronghua sat on the main seat, and Tie Changlin sat on the left. The upper seat on the right was empty. It belonged to Ding Yi. After a glance, in addition to the hostile factions, the neutral faction, Cui Ge Lao, Zeng Ge Lao, and Wei There were also people from the pavilion, dozens of them in total. He pressed his palms and motioned for them to sit down.

Each of them sat with only a third of their buttocks, their backs straight, their faces serious, and they did not dare to breathe for fear of making the Marquis angry, and they felt awe in their hearts like never before.

The man in front of him was a ruthless person who single-handedly stirred up the officialdom. He even dared to order the four major departments to surround and kill the Taibao. He did not dare to be careless.

Zhang Ronghua said in a deep voice: "I have only one request, to ensure that this examination is fair and just. If you do this well, you don't need to worry about other things. You will get the credit you deserve. If anyone has received the benefits in advance, please help. You should know the consequences of cheating or turning a blind eye!"

"Don't dare!" Everyone said.

Before this, many people found them through connections and prepared generous gifts, which were too big to refuse. If it were other examiners, they would have agreed. This time, they returned honestly, endured the heartache, and went back to business.

No matter how good the money is, lifeless flowers are useless.

The prince will not come here, he will just give his name. After the examination is over and the corrections are completed, the article will be submitted to him for his decision, and then it will be submitted to His Majesty for approval, and then the results will be released.

Three days later.

The top two hundred people on the list entered the Ziji Palace and took part in the palace examination. Emperor Xia personally set the questions and selected the number one, second and third overall candidates, plus the top three Jinshi.

A quarter of an hour later.

Ding Yi hurried over and nodded, indicating that everything was arranged and Murong An and the others were already in place.

Another quarter of an hour passed.

Looking at the sky outside, it's time.

Zhang Ronghua ordered: "Let the candidates enter."

Ding Yi passed on the order, and Zheng Fugui let him go. The front yard of Nuo University was filled with officers and soldiers from the Fifth City Defense Department. Everyone's examination room had been arranged in advance, and there were special instructions, so there was no need to worry about going wrong or getting lost.

a while.

Zheng Fugui entered the hall and reported: "I would like to inform you, Lord Marquis, that all the candidates have entered the hall. There are no absentees. We have also checked that there are no people engaging in malpractice for personal gain."

Zhang Ronghua waved his hand, motioned for him to go down, and announced the test questions: "The test questions this time are mainly about the destruction of the Shang Dynasty. It lasted one day, and the papers will be collected half an hour before the due date!"

"Yes!" Everyone responded and rushed towards their respective examination rooms.

Zhang Ronghua didn't move, he sat on a chair and drank tea.

I was too impatient to eat hot tofu, so I waited patiently, but I didn’t waste time, watching the royal inheritance in my mind.

time flies.

Most of the day passed in the blink of an eye, and it looked like there was still a quarter of an hour until the paper was handed in.

Examination room number one.

Zhao Wenyuan looked at the examination paper on the desk. For those who have real materials, it is not difficult to take the topic of destroying the Shang Dynasty. However, it is difficult for those who study hard and are not clear-headed. With his own ability, it is very difficult. I am confident that even if I can't win the Huiyuan, I can still be ranked in the top ten. Thinking that Zhu Bo's name is about to be written on it makes me feel worse than eating dog shit!

He wanted to refuse, but he didn't have the courage.

He is a branch of the Zhao family in Jinzhou. The night before he left for the capital, Zhao Jinlin, the head of the family, found him and offered two options. The first one was on the day of the test, and the person wrote the name of the other party after the test, and that person wrote himself on his test paper. As compensation, they will get a prosperous location with three entrances and three exits. The next year's imperial examination will wait for the Zhao family to operate in a good position in high school before promising a marriage. The woman comes from a famous family with a prominent family background.

The second choice is that the road to Beijing is not peaceful. Bandits, ghosts and ghosts may appear, including the state capital. If there is a fire, or casual cultivators fight, it will harm the family, and the whole family will die, and the loss will be great.

The meaning of the threat is very heavy, and it does not hide it at all.

Zhao Wenyuan had no choice but to agree.

Sighing helplessly, he wrote the word "Zhu Bo" on the signature, comforting himself, it is worth it to exchange a year for prosperity and wealth, and the prosperity of the future!

Little did he know that everything he did was secretly recorded by the powerful men of the True Dragon Palace.

Situations like this happen in every exam room.

It's time to hand in the paper.

The invigilator ordered people to collect the test papers, the examination was over, and the candidates left.

lobby.

Zhang Ronghua recovered his mind and read the book for a day. The general road was very complicated. After he understood it thoroughly, he accumulated it like firewood.

Ding Yi and Tie Changlin were the first to come in, holding sealed examination papers and placing them on the table.

Zhang Ronghua took out an empty Xumi bag and put them away.

Footsteps sounded, and other invigilators came in one after another, put down their papers, and stood waiting on the side.

Finished collecting the test papers.

Zhang Ronghua said: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Let's go and rest aside and wait for my orders."

Everyone bowed and left.

Murong An brought people over, asked his subordinates to guard outside, entered the lobby, closed the door, bowed and saluted: "I have met the Marquis!"

Zhang Ronghua asked: "Is it done?"

Murong An took out a sumeru bag and handed it over.

Take it.

Zhang Ronghua did not check it immediately. He handed the Xumi bag containing the test papers to Ding Yi and ordered: "Take it over and let them approve it, and then supervise it there."

"Yes!" Ding Yi agreed.

Leave quickly.

Zhang Ronghua said: "The fastest they can take is one and a half hours, or even two hours. During this time, you can find out the status of outstanding and poor students in each state."

"Subordinate, let's do it now!" Murong An took the order and left.

Zhang Ronghua opened the remaining Sumeru bag, took out the recording stone inside, put in a little bit of swallowing internal energy, and checked them one by one. With his sharp eyesight, he could tell at a glance who had real materials and who was just cheating. Chang Lin was responsible for recording and divided it into two parts, one was talented and the other was uneducated.

Half an hour later.

Zhang Ronghua put them away and took a look at the list. There were one hundred and two pairs in total, which was seventy-six more than the news from the Huo family. These people were all suspects, and no conclusion could be drawn until the matter was investigated clearly.

I took a look and continued to wait.

Murong An came back before they finished correcting the test papers, took out a list and handed it over, recording in detail the candidates who participated in the imperial examination this time.

Zhang Ronghua compared the two lists. Anyone who had any connection with the Wuzhou Family was checked out with a red pen. After filtering, there were still forty-nine pairs left.

Keep the above names in mind, and put this list away.

Seven or eight minutes later.

"Boom!"

The door knocked, and Ding Yi's voice came in: "Brother, it's fixed."

Zhang Ronghua said: "Come in."

open the door.

Ding Yi walked in front, led everyone in, and handed over the Xumi bag containing the examination papers.

Let them sit down.

Zhang Ronghua took these examination papers, all of which had been reviewed. He removed the seals and compared them with the list of forty-nine pairs. In the second round of screening, there were exactly twenty-six pairs left, and he took out their examination papers.

Not in a hurry to act, he said indifferently: "This Marquis has received news that someone cheated in this imperial examination and wanted to trap us in a catastrophe!"

When they saw Murong An, everyone guessed one thing, otherwise, the people from True Dragon Hall would not have appeared here.

Ma Guo is the old man of Cui Ge, and asked everyone's doubts: "Master Hou, what's going on?"

The officialdom must unite all available forces. If these people can come over and occupy important positions in their respective factions, they can just use their hands to eliminate the Five States Family.

It's not that I'm afraid, why not use it if I have ready-made blame and share the pressure?

Fight alone? It's not something the superiors consider.

After Zhang Ronghua's explanation, he explained in detail how the Wuzhou family's vicious plan aimed at them.

No one believed it!

Basically everyone guessed that this was aimed at him, but they couldn't get out of this vortex.

From the moment the list of invigilators was finalized, he got involved. I thought it was a good thing, but I didn't expect that there was a huge conspiracy hidden inside.

To take a step back, even if the Wuzhou Aristocratic Family succeeds, they will not suffer much loss. At most, they will leave a mark on their qualifications. When they were promoted, Zhang Ronghua was the unlucky one, but it happened to him that he found out that he had allowed these people to do so quietly. The guy jumped out, then pulled himself and others onto the pirate ship, and together they dealt with the Zhao family and other aristocratic families. It was as uncomfortable as eating yellow lotus. He couldn't tell the pain, and he had to flatter and flatter him.

Ma Guocai said without conscience: "Fortunately, the Marquis discovered it in time, otherwise we would have been in trouble!"

Others echoed.

Zhang Ronghua was sarcastic in his heart. At this moment, he was wondering how to scold himself for not practicing martial ethics and trapping them with a net.

Let them go through the evidence and decide the tone first.

Then he ordered: "Arrest people according to the twenty-six lists, imprison them in Hades, interrogate them severely, and pry open their mouths!"

"Yes!" Murong An accepted the order.

Leave in a hurry.

out of the examination room.

Zhao Wenyuan wanted to vent his anger and release all the grievances accumulated in his heart. Instead of going to heaven and earth, Zhao Fulai's case came out. Although it was over, it hadn't opened yet. According to gossip, internal rectification was underway. When he arrived at Jiaofang Division, The move was very generous, using the money given by Zhao Jinlin, and called two concubines at a high price, one was from the Wu tribe, the other was from the water tribe, with drug support, no prelude, crazy attack!

Not long after the fun started, bang! The door was violently kicked open and a loud sound rang out. He was so frightened that he immediately "surrendered" and even took medicine to no avail.

Without waiting to curse, the people from the True Dragon Palace rushed in, like wolves and tigers, and brutally knocked him unconscious and took him away.

Situations like this abounded everywhere in the capital, and the news spread quickly. People from all walks of life got the news and secretly guessed what kind of medicine was sold in Zhang Ronghua's gourd.

I just came back from outside. Not even a day has passed, and it doesn’t stop anymore?

The people being arrested are still scholars. Could it be that someone engaged in malpractice during the examination?

I wanted to send someone to ask the invigilators, but they were all sitting in the lobby. Zhang Ronghua was watching in person. No one could leave. What happened was that he was blinded.

There is one thing that no one dares to be careless for fear of suffering a big loss!

10,000 words burst! Eight claws worked hard.
