Chapter 908: Meeting with the Xinke Scholars

Lu Xiaoxian didn't even look at Liu Chen and said to the three of them: "If you believe me, I will stay. If you don't believe me, please let yourself do it!"

The three of them had to ask in detail, and Lu Xiaoxian had turned around and left.

Chang Jingzhong looked at the other two with inquiring eyes, and Wen Jun smiled bitterly: "I don't think Mr. Lu will harm us at least, I believe him. Anyway, it's just for free to eat and live. Just stay for three days and see what he is going to do."

Chang Jingzhong and Yang Chengyi nodded.

...

Today is not the day for court in Japan, but the ministers have received a notice from the eunuch: At the time of Si, his Majesty will meet with the ministers to receive the new Jinshi.

Linde Hall is located on a high ground west of Taiye Lake in the north of the Daming Palace. It was built during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty, so it was named after "Linde". This is the place where the emperor summoned nobles and confidants, received foreign envoys and held grand banquets.

"My dear friends, I invite you all to come today because I want to see the new Jinshi style with you."

After Li Xian said that, he asked the neatly arranged Jinshi in the hall, "Where is the new top scholar?"

No one answered the Jinshi, and Zong Chuke reported to Zhongzong with a sad look on his face: "Your Majesty, this year's new top scholar was Changsun Zongxuan, the weak minister, but he died of illness a few days ago."

"Oh, Zong Aiqing is so sad!" Li Xian didn't expect that the top scholar would die suddenly, so he naturally wanted to comfort Zong Chuke.

"Since the top scorer is vacant, then the top scorer will be replaced by the top scorer!" Li Xian re-appointed the top scorer and asked again, "I wonder who the top scorer is?"

There was still no one in the Jinshi. Li Xian felt strange and was about to ask, but he heard Lu Xiaoxian say, "Your Majesty, this second place is originally a disciple named Zhang Ruoyu, but this person cannot be the top scorer."

"Why is this?" Li Xian asked in confusion.

Lu Xiaoxian told Li Xian in detail about the murder case that occurred in the official road of Lantian County and even the capture of fake Zhang Ruoyu. Li Xian and the ministers were stunned after hearing this. They did not expect that there were so many twists and turns in it.

"Where is this fake Zhang Ruoyu now?" Li Xian didn't expect that someone would have a secret idea, so he asked angrily.

"I have detained him in the prison of the Ministry of Justice." Lu Xiaoxian replied

"Lu Aiqing, you must interrogate strictly and find out the person behind the scenes!" Li Xian said in anger: "I want to kill his nine clans!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" After taking the order, Lu Xiaoxian said again, "Digging out this fake Zhang Ruoyu and breaking this case, Lantian County Magistrate Song Jing made an indelible contribution. I hope Your Majesty can reward Song Jing!"

"Yes, it should be rewarded!" Li Xian nodded and said, "I don't like you, I wonder what suggestions do you have?"

Lu Xiaoxian took the opportunity to suggest: "Song Jing has a good ability to make a case. It just so happened that the Shaoqing of Dali Temple has already sent a scholar. Your Majesty can appoint Song Jing as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple."

Dali Temple is the only temple in the Nine Temples of the Tang Dynasty that does not have a prison. The Dali Qing is the third rank, and the Dali Shaoqing is the fourth rank. Song Jing, as the county magistrate of the previous county, was only the sixth rank, from the sixth rank to the fourth rank, which is too...

Li Xian was also a little confused, so he pointed out the name of Qiao Weiren, the Minister of Personnel, and asked: "Qiao Aiqing, what do you think Lu Aiqing said?"

Qiao Weiren glanced at Lu Xiaoxian and quickly replied: "Report to Your Majesty, what Lord Lu said is very true. Song Jing should be competent as the young minister of Dali Temple!"

Everyone knows that Qiao Weiren is Zong Chuke's person. The ministers thought that Qiao Weiren would definitely object, but they did not expect

Qiao Weiren said this, and the ministers couldn't help but look at each other: When did Qiao Weiren actually wear a pair of pants with Lu Xiaoxian?

Especially Zong Chuke, he looked at Qiao Weiren with a strange look.

Qiao Weiren was indescribable, but he had no choice but to make an agreement with Lu Xiaoxian, so he could only pretend not to see Zong Chuke's gaze.

After hearing Qiao Weiren's words, Li Xian nodded slightly and said, "Authentication, let Song Jing be the young minister of Dali Temple!"

When Lu Xiaoxian saw Qiao Weiren making such a journey, he naturally wanted to repay his kindness.

So, Lu Xiaoxian smiled at Qiao Weiren and suggested to Li Xian: "Your Majesty, the Tanhua Lang Kuai Zhengpeng of last year has not been allowed to do so. He can be appointed as the deputy envoy of the counselor."

Li Xian looked at Qiao Weiren again. Lu Xiaoxian was helping Qiao Weiren, so how could Qiao Weiren not understand?

Therefore, with Qiao Weiren's consent, Kuai Zhengpeng became the deputy envoy of counsel.

Lu Xiaoxian said whatever Qiao Weiren did, which made Zong Chuke angry, but now that the tide was gone, he shot his knife-like eyes at Qiao Weiren, and Qiao Weiren could only knock down his teeth and swallow it into his stomach.

The top scorer and the second place were not seen. Li Xian felt it was boring and asked again: "Is the third place in the new subject, and I am here?"

Liu Chen, who was standing among the Jinshi, hurried out and said, "Your Majesty, Liu Chen is here!"

Seeing that Liu Chen was handsome and polite, Li Xian couldn't help but be happy, and waved his hand and said, "Let Liu Chen be the first candidate in the new subject this year!"

After hearing this, Liu Chen was overjoyed and was about to thank him, but someone shouted, "Your Majesty, you must not!"

All the ministers looked in the voice and found that it was Lu Xiaoxian again. It turned out that Linde Hall had become the place where Lu Xiaoxian performed alone today.

"Lu Aiqing, what's wrong with it?" Li Xian was surprisingly tolerant of Lu Xiaoxian.

"Your Majesty, there are doubts about Liu Chen, and it must be cleared up!"

"Are you suspicious? What does your words mean?"

"Your Majesty, I will understand when I tell you a story!"

"You said, you said!" Li Xian was very interested.

The ministers didn't know what medicine Lu Xiaoxian sold in the gourd, and they all stared at Lu Xiaoxian.

Lu Xiaoxian cleared his throat and said vividly: "This year, two students met at the fork in the road that was about to arrive in Chang'an..."

...

The two of them, one from the north and the other from the east. After they had their names, they walked with them. After a while, they arrived at a market town, which was still a hundred miles away from the capital.

Donglai's disciple is tired and wants to live here.

Juzi from the north looked at the sky and said, "The sun is still very high. If you drive it out for another twenty or thirty miles, you can reach Chang'an."

The disciples from Donglai must live here.

The northern scholar had to say, "If you want to live, stay there, and I have to walk for another journey." The two broke up.

The scholar from Donglai walked into the Ma family inn and came out to greet a woman under 30 years old with a bun on her head, who looked very handsome. The scholar had already got married and had a wife at home. This time he went to Beijing for the exam and walked for more than half a month. At night, he felt bored. When he saw this handsome woman, he became tempted.

The judge asked politely: "I wonder if the shopkeeper is here?"

The woman sighed and said, "To be honest, my husband's surname is Ma. He passed away the previous year. I will continue to open this store. I am the boss. People call me Widow Ma.

.”

Juzi smiled and said to Widow Ma: "Sister-in-law, please prepare a clean room for me!"

As he said that, he looked at Widow Ma, and Widow Ma smiled at him.

The smile made the son fascinated. He thought: "Widows should open a shop, and they must be a wild prostitute. When it gets dark, it will be fine."

It was dark, and after dinner, he stared at Widow Ma at the door of the room where he lived.

It was not until the first day that Widow Ma came out of the account room and walked to the west wing where she lived. The senior creeped over and tiptoed over.

Widow Ma came into the house and turned around and wanted to close the door. When she saw this call, she smiled and asked, "Guest, do tea or water? Just give me instructions."

Juzi also smiled and said, "You don't have to pretend to behave. You will spend the night with me tonight and give you ten taels of silver. How about it?"

As he said that, he was about to enter the house, but Widow Ma did not stop him, and the two of them entered the house.

Widow Ma asked: "Who is the guest's name? Where are you doing? What are you doing?"

The juren burped and said, "My surname is Zhang, my name is Zhang Jiuling. He is the juren who went to Beijing to take the exam."

Widow Ma nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, take off your clothes and go to bed!"

Zhang Jiuling was so happy that he was so happy that he quickly took off his coat and then took off his underwear.

When he just showed his chest, Widow Ma suddenly stretched out a hand and grabbed the chest hard and said, "Your dog eyes are blind! Although I am a widow, I am not that slut. When I smiled, I can't move my legs when I saw a woman. I have left him with many people who want to take advantage of me. I am tactful, hurry back to the room to sleep, and it's time to go on a hurry tomorrow. Otherwise, I'll call someone!"

Zhang Jiuling looked down at his chest, leaving five blood marks of his fingernails. He was afraid that Widow Ma would be embarrassed if he really called him. He had to put on his clothes in a panic, return to his room, endured the pain, and slept all night.

After breakfast the next day, I set off on the road and arrived in Chang'an on the third day.

After the new Jinshi was released, Zhang Jiuling won the fourth place in the Jinshi. This matter was quickly spread. The shop room was the fastest place to spread the message. When Widow Ma heard that Zhang Jiuling had won the Jinshi, she thought, if this pervert would be a high-ranking official in the future, there would be the benefit of the people? So she rode a donkey and rushed to the capital overnight, found the Ministry of Justice, and handed a letter to the gatekeeper. Qian instructed Wan to hand the letter to the Minister of Justice.

...

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoxian took out a letter and said, "Now, this letter is in the hands of the empress, please read it with Your Majesty!"

The eunuch handed the letter to Li Xian. There were only four sentences on the letter, twenty-eight words: Zhang Jiuling, a student in the exam, played with the widow on the night of the eighth day of the lunar month; he left five finger marks on his chest, and he hoped that he would not be confused. The signature was Ma Widow from Majiadian.

After reading it, Li Xian said strangely: "Lu Aiqing, what does this Zhang Jiuling teased the widow with Liu Chen?"

Lu Xiaoxian said solemnly: "Your Majesty, you will understand immediately!"

After saying that, Lu Xiaoxian shouted to the Jinshi: "Where is Zhang Jiuling?"

Zhang Jiuling took the list and said, "Students are here!"

Lu Xiaoxian asked, "Which in the night of the eighth day of the seventh month?" Zhang Jiuling thought for a while and said, "In order to rush, the student missed the stay on the eighth day of the day, and stayed at Song Yuanwai's house in Songjiazhuang at night."

Lu Xiaoxian glared at him: "Are you Zhang Jiuling?"

Zhang Jiuling replied: "The student is Zhang Jiuling."
