Hearing Shen Lang's words, all the gangsters were dumbfounded.
When they signed the bet, no one knew that Shen Lang would win.
Such a heaven-defying thing would never happen.
And now it had really happened.
What should they do?
Sneak away, of course.
Did they really have to eat five kilograms?
Therefore, the gangsters who had signed and pressed their fingerprints left one after another.
If we win, of course we won't let Shen Lang off.
But if we lose, we can forget about fulfilling the bet.
We're a group of people who will repudiate all kinds of debts. Let alone gambling debts, we'll even repudiate the prostitution fees.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Wu Lie said coldly.
Then, dozens of female warriors came out.
They blocked the two entrances and prevented those people from leaving.
The gangsters were instantly enraged.
"It's none of my business. I didn't sign any bet with Shen Lang's son-in-law. I'm just here to watch the show."
"I'm here to get some soy sauce. What's going on?"
"Get out of the way. Good dogs don't block the way. Neither do bitches."
"If you don't get out of the way, I'll take off my pants."
These hoodlums could do anything. They had no sense of shame at all.
Wu Lie pointed at a gangster and said coldly, "Take it off, now!"
Although Wu Lie was handsome like a man, she was a woman after all, and a very handsome woman with a hot body.
The hooligan laughed and took off his pants. He shouted, "I'll take off my pants. If anyone dares to block my way, be careful not to touch them."
Wu Lie's face turned cold and she ordered, "Pinch it."
Immediately, one of her female warriors put on a glove and suddenly pinched the ruffian's penis.
The gangster's expression changed instantly.
In an instant, he turned pale without any trace of blood.
The pain was a hundred times worse than giving birth.
"Ah …"
The miserable scream almost pierced through the sky.
Then, the gangster fell to the ground, clutching his balls and rolling desperately.
It was too painful.
His whole body was about to twitch.
All the hooligans present felt their scalps go numb, and their balls shrank.
Damn!
She really pinched it.
She was just threatening them before.
Now it was time to get serious.
Wu Lie said coldly, "All hooligans who have a bet with Young Master, stay here and don't move. If anyone dares to leave, crush them."
This time.
Everyone was frightened.
Damn it, it's too scary.
However, these hooligans were still not worried.
That day, we did sign and put our fingerprints on it, but it was either a fake name or a flower name.
You, Shenlang, know who I am?
What can you do if I say I didn't sign it?
You want me to admit defeat?
Dream on!
But then, an incomparably terrifying scene appeared.
Shen Lang began to select people.
He stood high up and pointed at someone.
Immediately, a few female warriors stepped forward and pulled one of them out.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?"
"I didn't bet with Shen Lang at all. I didn't sign it, and I didn't leave my fingerprint on it."
But then, Shen Lang found the person's signature. He even found his fingerprint.
The man was stunned.
How was this possible?
Shen Lang recognized him.
He had a photographic memory.
Along with Shen Lang's identification, all the hooligans who signed that day were captured one by one.
There were no mistakes or omissions.
Of course, Shen Lang remembered each and every one of them.
He had a smart brain, which meant that he had taken pictures of each of them and stored them in his brain.
When he needed to, he would just pull out the pictures.
The hooligans panicked.
Was he really going to eat ten catties of it?
That would kill him.
He wouldn't be able to raise his head for the rest of his life.
Instantly, someone shouted, "Cheating, Shen Lang cheated."
"Right, Shen Lang's men cheated, they definitely cheated."
The moment this was said, most people agreed.
There were many people who didn't make it.
They were just looking at the rankings and were too lazy to care about the conflict between Shen Lang and the hooligans.
Now that they looked at it again and again, they realized that their names weren't on it?
How was that possible?
I'm talented and I've written such a good essay and poem. How could I fail the exam?
Most importantly, Lunatic Lan was just a tramp, a beggar. He had never been to school.
How could he get first place?
And the other ten beggars who had only practiced martial arts for a month passed the imperial examination?
How was that possible?
They must have cheated.
"The heavens are unfair, the heavens are unfair."
"Shen Lang cheated, Shen Lang cheated!"
"The heavens will destroy the earth, the heavens will destroy the earth!"
These people who didn't make it shouted. The hooligans who lost the bet were overjoyed. They wanted to see the world in chaos, so they shouted even louder.
Thus, the thousands of people present shouted in unison.
"The imperial examination is unfair, there's cheating, there's cheating!"
"Examiner, come out, examiner!"
"Shen Lang cheated, the heavens will destroy the earth, the heavens will destroy the earth!"
Dozens of candidates who didn't make it came in front of Zhu Hongping and said loudly, "Young Master Zhu Hongping, you were supposed to get first place in the Enke's written examination. In the end, because of Shen Lang's cheating, the beggar Lunatic Lan got first place. How unfair is that? Young Master Zhu, we will seek justice for you. "
"Yes, Young Master Zhu, you are first place. You are the grandson of the Prime Minister, and you call His Majesty uncle. How can you tolerate this?"
"Let's go, let's seek justice. Young Master Zhu, we will all stand on your side."
These candidates who didn't make it felt that they were alone and needed to find someone to take the lead.
Zhu Hongping had lost first place, and his status was high, so it was best for him to be the one to take the lead.
Zhu Hongping was also very indignant. He also felt that there was something fishy going on.
Otherwise, why would he lose first place? And it was taken away by a beggar?
But he was a disciple of a famous family, how could he be used by these candidates who didn't make it?
"Everyone, farewell."
Without another word, Zhu Hongping immediately left.
The candidates who didn't make it were disappointed. But was the matter going to be let go just like that?
No, it was absolutely impossible!
Some people were indignant, some people were simply angry and wanted to vent, and some people just wanted to see the world in chaos.
Many hooligans started to create momentum.
"Examiner, come out, examiner, come out."
"Otherwise, we will smash the Tribute Courtyard, smash the Tribute Courtyard."
"Go to the Ministry of Rites, go to the Privy Council, go to the Minister's Office to complain!"
"There must be fraud, there must be fraud!"
"Smash the Tribute Courtyard, smash the Tribute Courtyard."
"Go to the Weeping Sage Temple! Go to the Weeping Sage Temple! "
Under the guidance of thousands of hooligans, many candidates who didn't make it lost their minds.
They really rushed into the Tribute Courtyard to smash it.
The whole situation was completely out of control.
Thousands of people completely lost their minds.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
In the blink of an eye, the Tribute Courtyard was smashed into pieces.
The statue of the Sage in the Tribute Courtyard was also lifted.
"Kill Shen Lang, kill Shen Lang."
"Shen Lang cheated, the culprit, kill him, kill him …"
A small group of hooligans who wanted to see the world in chaos shouted in the crowd.
Then, thousands of people really rushed towards Shen Lang, wanting to take the opportunity to kill him.
Half of them were candidates who didn't make it.
They hated and envied Shen Lang in their hearts.
You are the son of a lowly commoner, why can you marry into the Marquis Xuanwu's residence, why can you live a luxurious life, while we have to study hard.
You also study, why can you become a juren without taking the exam, and you can even become an official?
Now, you even brought 11 beggars to ride roughshod over us.
You, Shen Lang, let 11 beggars take the Enke exam, which is already looking down on us. Now, they are still in high school, while we have fallen behind.
The other half of them were hooligans who wanted to see the world in chaos, unwilling to admit defeat.
Shen Lang, you little son-in-law, actually want us to eat sh * t? Dream on, you.
We will beat you to death!
"Shen Lang cheated, beat him to death, beat him to death …"
More than 1,000 people, holding wooden sticks and stones, rushed towards Shen Lang.
"Protect Young Master!"
Dozens of female warriors formed a circle, protecting Shen Lang in the middle.
"Kick him to death!"
The remaining dozens of female warriors kicked ferociously.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
They didn't kick other places, but they specifically kicked their genitals.
At this moment, regardless of whether you were a hooligan or a failed candidate, all of your testicles were kicked.
Instantly, people flew out one after another.
They let out incomparably shrill screams.
Those with slightly lighter injuries covered their genitals and rolled around with all their might.
Those with more serious injuries had their faces turn green, and they convulsed in pain.
Wu Lie said coldly, "Who else? Who else dares to come up? "
At this moment, a hooligan suddenly rushed in front of him. He really couldn't stop himself, he was too ferocious.
Wu Lie's expression turned cold.
He kicked the hooligan between his legs.
"Ah …"
That person's screams stopped abruptly, like a frog being trampled to death.
Blood spurted out in the air.
This time, not only was the chicken beaten to pieces, but his entire pelvis was kicked to pieces.
"Who else, who else?"
Wu Lie roared.
Xian Nu roared.
Everyone present no longer dared to step forward, but only shouted in the crowd.
Thousands of people, facing hundreds of female warriors, didn't dare to take a step forward. They only dared to wave their arms and shout.
"Shen Lang cheated, Heaven and Earth will destroy!"
"Shen Lang cheated, Heaven and Earth will destroy!"
"Go and complain, go to the Governor's Office to complain, Shen Lang not only cheated, but also publicly beat people to death in the market."
"Go and complain."
"Go to the Weeping Temple, go to the Weeping Temple!"
Then, thousands of people left the examination hall in a mighty manner.
Some of them went to the Tianyue Governor's Office to complain about Shen Lang's cheating in the imperial examination and murder in the street.
Others went to the Weeping Temple.
Suddenly, the entire capital was in chaos.
Shouting and killing!
… …
The Weeping Temple had always been the trump card of the scholar.
It was the same in ancient China.
Once it was related to the imperial examination cheating case, the examinees would immediately carry the statue of the sage to parade in the streets.
Then, they would kneel in front of the Confucian Temple and wail loudly.
The Confucian Temple in the capital had just been burned down at the beginning of the year, and this one had just been rebuilt.
At this moment, on the empty ground outside the Confucian Temple, there were a total of two thousand examinees kneeling there and wailing loudly.
"The heavens are unfair, the heavens are unfair."
"Oh sages, open your eyes and look at this filthy world."
"This examination hall is not clean."
"Shen Lang cheated, Shen Lang cheated. Oh sages, send down a bolt of lightning and kill that bastard Shen Lang! "
Originally, only examinees who failed the imperial examination came to the Weeping Temple.
Later on, more and more people came.
Many scholars who did not participate in the imperial examination also came.
This was because they had failed the imperial examination, and now it seemed that they had no hope of taking the imperial examination.
Later on, even some people who passed the imperial examination came.
The craziest ones were two examinees. This time, Enke had clearly passed the imperial examination, but he still came to the Weeping Temple.
This … this was really a case of being hot-headed.
Tonight, we are all failing the imperial examination.
"The heavens are unfair, the heavens are unfair!"
"Heaven's punishment for Shen Lang, heaven's punishment for Shen Lang!"
… …..
The main examiner of the Enke Theory Examination, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, and the other five examiners had pale faces and were even trembling.
They had guessed that the results this time would cause a huge uproar, but they did not expect it to be so big.
"I knew it would be like this, I knew it!"
"Back then, we really should have let Zhu Hongping get first place."
"The key is that there was no cheating in the Enke Theory Examination this time. If these examinees don't believe me, they can come and check the examination papers."
The first deputy examiner of the Hanlin Academy sneered and said, "Do you think they care about the truth? They just want to create trouble, to make it big, and then take the examination again. "
"Even if they don't take the examination again, they must force His Majesty to compromise and remove Lunatic Lan from first place, as well as those ten beggars who passed the military examination."
"Are they crazy? How could they not know His Majesty's character? A few days ago, when they besieged the Ministry of Rites and the Bureau of Military Affairs, weren't they chased away by His Majesty? "
The first deputy examiner said, "At that time, they thought that the examination would be the next day, and that Lunatic Lan and the others would not pass, so they temporarily retreated. Now that they have failed, of course they have no choice but to take the opportunity to vent their dissatisfaction towards His Majesty, towards Shen Lang, and do their best to make the matter bigger. "
"Will we be sacrificed? If His Majesty wants to appease these thousands of examinees, he might really declare it a case of cheating, and then the six of us will become cannon fodder. "
"It's all Shen Lang's fault. Why did that little b * stard have to be so meddlesome? Lunatic Lan and the ten beggars are already on the list. You should just stay at home and be happy. Why did you have to come out and stir up trouble, and anger these people? "
The first deputy examiner said, "It's useless. It's true that Shen Lang coming out to provoke these people is adding fuel to the fire, but if he hides at home and doesn't show himself, people will think that he has a guilty conscience. In short, those who want to cause trouble will still cause trouble."
"Then what should we do? What should we do? "
The deputy examiner of the Ministry of Rites said, "The key now lies with the Zhu family. If Zhu Xiang supports these scholars, then His Majesty will have to take a step back and punish Shen Lang."
Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu was the pillar of the State of Yue's officialdom. He was truly courageous.
… …..
Inside the Zhu family.
Zhu Hongping revealed his true nature in front of his grandfather.
"Grandfather, I can't accept this. I've been raising Wang for four years, and I'm determined to get first in this year's Enke examinations. What I want is to pass three yuan in a row, but now I've lost to a beggar. How can I accept this?"
"There must be cheating involved. Grandfather, please investigate."
Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu looked at his grandson with a very gentle gaze.
"What's the situation outside?" Zhu Xiang asked.
The housekeeper said, "A few thousand people went to the Governor's Office to complain, saying that Shen Lang cheated in the Enke examinations. Another few thousand people are crying at the Holy Temple. The number of people is increasing, and the matter is getting bigger and bigger. "
Zhu Xiang said, "What's the reaction from the palace?"
The housekeeper said, "There's no reaction. It's as if His Majesty doesn't know about this at all."
Zhu Hongzhu nodded and said, "Understood."
The housekeeper said, "Master, what does His Majesty mean? Is he going to sacrifice Shen Lang? Is he going to compromise with a few thousand scholars? "
Zhu Hongzhu shook his head and said, "No, His Majesty is just waiting for my reaction."
The situation before them was already very clear.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu.
If there was fraud in the Enke examinations, then Zhu Hongping would be the first victim.
Moreover, Zhu Hongzhu was the leader of the scholars.
Once he decided to stand on the side of the failed examinees, of course he would be able to buy the hearts of countless people.
At that time, Shen Lang would definitely not be able to stop this old Prime Minister.
Even Ning Yuanxian might have to back down.
"Master, there are already many scholars who have come to our door and knelt down."
"More and more."
Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu closed his eyes and pricked up his ears to listen.
As expected, he heard it.
"Zhu Xiang, please uphold justice for the scholars of the world."
"Zhu Xiang, please do your best to turn the tide, and return the innocence of the Enke examinations."
"Zhu Xiang, please protect the dignity of the saints."
These familiar people not only cried at the Holy Temple, but also at the Prime Minister's Office.
Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu waved his hand.
Everyone else retreated, leaving only his grandson, Zhu Hongping.
"My good grandson, you are very arrogant and conceited. This is a good thing. The children of the Zhu clan should have this kind of arrogance." Zhu Hongzhu said gently, "But you got second place this time. Grandfather is actually quite happy."
Hearing this, Zhu Hongping was shocked.
Zhu Hongzhu said, "My good grandson, today grandfather will teach you one thing. Do not pursue perfection."
Zhu Hongping said, "Isn't it just like the proud dragon has regrets, and it cannot last long? I have read it more than a hundred times!"
This Zhu Hongping was considered polite in front of others, but in front of his grandfather, he did not hide anything and spoke straightforwardly.
"Yes, but also no," Zhu Hongzhu said.
Zhu Hongping said, "I could have gotten first. Just because of my status, I have to get second place? That is too hypocritical. I am not convinced. What is the point of being a coward like this? "
"Hahaha …" Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu was not angry. He handed over a few pieces of paper and smiled. "My good grandson, take a good look at this paper. Look at the treatise and the poems. How do they compare to yours? "
Zhu Hongping took them and looked at them.
First, she quickly looked through them, then carefully looked through them twice.
Instantly, her face turned red and she was ashamed.
Zhu Hongzhu was even happier. "My good grandson, how do these treatises and poems compare to yours?"
Zhu Hongping lowered her head and said, "They are better than mine."
Zhu Hongzhu asked, "How much better?"
Zhu Hongping said, "Much better."
Zhu Hongzhu asked, "Do you still think that someone is trying to suppress you?"
Zhu Hongping shook her head.
Zhu Hongzhu said, "There is always someone better out there. My good grandson may be outstanding, but it is hard to avoid a monster. It is not easy to compare. "
Zhu Hongping's heart was filled with anger.
Give me another ten years, and I may not be worse than this person.
Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu said, "Actually, it is not wrong to say that this examination was rigged. This treatise and poems were not written by that crazy Lan. They were written by Shen Lang."
"Shen Lang?" Zhu Hongping was shocked. "Him?"
"Yes!" Zhu Hongzhu said, "He is only twenty this year. He is only three years older than you. For this examination, he wrote many treatises and poems for Crazy Lan to memorize. In the end, he really passed. "
Zhu Hongping asked, "Grandfather, how did you know?"
Zhu Hongzhu said, "Of course, His Majesty told me. He would not hide such things from me."
Then, Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu said, "My good grandson, do you still want to seek justice? Crazy Lan did not rely on his own ability to get first place. His essays were not as good as yours. "
Zhu Hongping shook her head. "The examination does not prohibit betting. I thought that someone was trying to suppress me, so I was angry. Now … I am convinced. "
Then, Zhu Hongping said, "Grandfather, I think that Shen Lang is extremely frivolous. He only wants to see the world in chaos. He does not look like a genius at all."
Zhu Hongzhu said, "This person is a devil incarnate. Unless it is absolutely necessary, do not provoke him."
Then, Zhu Hongzhu looked elsewhere. "But do not get too close to him. Otherwise, you will attract trouble!"
…
The sky turned dark!
But the entire capital was still not at peace.
It was as if it was boiling.
Outside the Third Prince's Governor's Office, thousands of people knelt there, beating drums.
"Governor, we want to complain."
"Governor, Shen Lang killed people on the streets. His crime is unforgivable!"
And outside the Sacred Temple.
There were thousands of scholars, including those who came to watch the commotion. There were tens of thousands of people.
Countless candles were lit. They were densely packed like stars in the sky.
Countless scholars started a hunger strike.
And they took turns crying.
Their throats could not take it if it was just a group of people crying.
A thousand people at a time, taking turns crying.
And they had to make up their cries. Only then would their cries have momentum.
At the start, they made up many sentences. Later, they realized that one sentence was the best, so they just kept repeating it.
"The heavens are unfair, the saints are shamed. Shen Lang cheated, the heavens will punish him!"
The examinees smashed the examination hall and cried in the Sacred Temple. After causing such a huge commotion, there was still no reaction from the palace.
This gave the scholars a glimmer of hope.
His Majesty was probably going to compromise. Everyone should work harder and make the matter bigger.
More people.
That way, Shen Lang would definitely die.
Even if there was no cheating in the enke examination this time, there would be cheating.
If that was the case, they would have to retake the exam.
And most of the examinees who had already passed the exam were naturally unwilling to cause trouble.
But who dared to speak at this time? If they spoke, they would be the public enemy of all scholars. They would be in cahoots with Shen Lang.
Shen Lang cheated. You guys cheated too. Otherwise, how could you have passed the exam?
And at this time, the social beauties in the capital were unwilling to be left out.
A total of more than ten courtesans came to support the examinees.
What they could do was, of course, sell the charity sale.
However, they weren't selling their bodies. They were selling their voices.
They tirelessly sang for the examinees who had failed the exam outside the Sacred Temple.
And they sang the poems of the saints.
And they created them on the spot.
Moreover, every song he composed contained these sixteen words.
"The heavens are unfair, the saints are shamed. Shen Lang cheated, the heavens will punish him!"
Of course, in order to achieve the effect of catching people's attention, they added many more shocking words.
For example, the heavens were crying and the earth was cracking.
For example, the sky was splitting and the earth was cracking.
This group of courtesans didn't want to miss any hot topic. This was the best opportunity to hype up their reputation. Reputation was their net worth.
And they didn't like Shen Lang either.
Why?
Because Shen Lang had never looked for them, nor did he come to support them.
On the contrary, he even secretly went to the brothels to look for those lowly prostitutes.
You, Shen Lang, are still a distinguished scholar. You didn't look for us, the famous courtesans, but went to those lowly prostitutes. What do you mean by that?
Are you looking down on us?
Shen Lang really didn't look down on them. It was just that he didn't want to provoke them.
It was too troublesome.
I had to recite poems to get the favor of you, a courtesan, and then go to your brothel to drink a cup of wine. I still feel that it's glorious.
I, Shen Lang, am not a fool. Go and help you increase your net worth?
Can't we all be more simple and direct?
Pay with one hand and sleep with the other.
It's true that I, Shen Lang, have the heart but not the guts. I haven't really done the transaction, but that's what I think.
But if I recite poems with you courtesans and look like I'm in love, wouldn't I be letting my wife down?
I love Mulan baby very much, and I will never cheat on her mentally.
It was precisely because of this coldness toward them that Shen Lang became the public enemy of the courtesans.
… …
The next morning!
Many censors and civil and military officials were sharpening their knives.
The capital was in chaos.
Everyone took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
They had to take the opportunity to abolish the scholarly titles of the eleven beggars under Shen Lang.
They had to take the opportunity to take down Shen Lang.
Did this group of people hate Shen Lang that much?
Perhaps!
But their target wasn't Shen Lang. They just wanted to use Shen Lang to make the Monarch bow their heads.
The Monarch had indeed angered these civil and military officials by letting eleven beggars take the exam.
They had studied for ten years and practiced martial arts for ten years before they were qualified to take the exam and become officials.
Now, because of Your Majesty's favor, Shen Lang randomly found eleven beggars to take the exam?
How could there be such logic in the world?
How could we have any face left?
No, how could the path of a sage exist?
It was fine if those eleven beggars didn't graduate.
But all eleven of them did, and that lunatic Lan even got first place.
How could this be?
Then wouldn't we, the civil and military officials, be slapped in the face?
Would it prove that our impeachment against Shen Lang was all out of jealousy and nonsense?
That Your Majesty had a discerning eye for talent, and that we, the officials, were blinded by lard?
How could this work?
Now, thousands of examinees and scholars were stirring up trouble.
This gave us a chance.
Everyone was adding fuel to the fire. They had to make sure that this cheating case was solved with certainty.
No matter how much you dote on Shen Lang, you won't be able to stop a few thousand scholars. You also won't be able to stop over a hundred civil and military officials.
So, these hundreds of officials had hidden impeachment memorials in their sleeves.
They were waiting for the court meeting to start, and then they would beat Shen Lang to death.
As for the truth?
It wasn't important at all.
In the main hall.
Hundreds of civil and military officials rubbed their palms.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside.
Then, they saw everyone bowing down.
"Zhu Xiang!"
"Teacher!"
"Teacher Zhu!"
Zhu Hongzhu had arrived. Everywhere he passed, the civil and military officials all bowed down.
Even Zhu Xiang had arrived.
Everyone had a backbone.
They would definitely win this battle!
Once Zhu Xiang made a move, even His Majesty had to compromise.
Everyone hugged Zhu Hongzhu.
An official said with tears in his eyes, "Zhu Xiang, you are our leader. You have to uphold justice for us scholars."
"These scholars are so pitiful. Thousands of them are kneeling outside the Sacred Temple and crying. Their throats are bleeding."
"And they have started a hunger strike."
"Even the prostitutes can't stand it anymore. They are all supporting these failed examinees."
"Zhu Xiang, there might really be fraud in this imperial examination. Eleven beggars all passed. How is that possible?"
"Zhu Xiang, Shen Lang is stirring up trouble. He is a scourge."
"Zhu Xiang, the civil and military imperial examinations are the lifeline of the country. If there is fraud in the imperial examinations, then the entire country's foundation will be rotten."
"For the dignity of the Saints, for the future achievements of our State of Yue, please uphold justice for the scholars of the world. Let's return peace to the world."
Then, hundreds of officials bowed in unison and said, "Zhu Xiang, please uphold justice for the civil and military candidates. We will follow your lead."
Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu nodded and said, "Alright, don't be in a hurry to go. I will go first!"
Many officials were overjoyed.
That was the best. Zhu Hongzhu was the courageous scholar, the leader of the officials, and the teacher and father-in-law of the Monarch.
If he made a move, Shen Lang would definitely die. The Monarch would also have to compromise.
Everyone followed closely behind, and there would be no risk of angering the Monarch!
A moment later!
The Monarch Ning Yuanxian arrived.
"If there is a report, the court will be dismissed if there is no report!"
Instantly, all the officials looked at Prime Minister Zhu Hongzhu.
Zhu Xiang stepped out and bowed, "Your Majesty, I have a report."
The Monarch said gently, "Please speak, Prime Minister."
Zhu Hongzhu's heart trembled.
The Monarch hadn't said the word "Prime Minister" for a long, long time.
Zhu Hongzhu said, "Someone said that there was fraud in the civil and military imperial examinations. I have already investigated, and the so-called fraud is completely unfounded. It was just a small group of people stirring up trouble and inciting the failed candidates to cause trouble. Your Majesty, please punish them severely."
As soon as he said that.
All the officials were shocked.
Zhu Xiang, you … what do you mean by this?
The Monarch Ning Yuanxian said, "Then according to Prime Minister's opinion, how should we punish them?"
Zhu Hongzhu said, "Show the Bodhisattva's heart with a thunderous method. As for the small group of people who are inciting trouble with evil intentions, kill those who should be killed, depose those who should be dismissed, and exile those who should be exiled. But as for the majority of the muddle-headed candidates, we just need to punish them lightly. "
Ning Yuanxian said, "Having an old man at home is like having a treasure. Prime Minister, you are really experienced in planning for the country. Let's do as you say. Officials, do you have any other opinions? "
The officials who wanted to impeach the Monarch all bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise. We agree."
The Monarch and Zhu Xiang have agreed. How can we dare to have any other opinions?
"Ning Qi, you are the Governor of Tianyue Middle School. I will leave this matter to you," the Monarch said with a smile.
The Third Prince Ning Qi bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
The Monarch said again, "Ning Zheng, you and your Third Brother will handle this matter!"
Ning Zheng stepped out and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!
Everyone was shocked.
What does His Majesty mean? Ning Zheng, the useless prince, also has a chance to handle this matter?
Only a few big shots were clear about this.
Who is the Monarch going to avenge for Shen Lang? He is just borrowing Ning Zheng's hand.
Everyone was indignant.
Based on what?
Such a big mess was caused by Shen Lang. Instead of punishing him, you want to avenge him?
"Li En, bring the imperial guards with you."
… …
Two hours later!
The Governor's Manor in the capital was mobilized.
They rushed directly to the Sacred Temple!
At this time, a dozen top courtesans were still singing coquettishly to cheer for the candidates.
Eunuch Xiao Li glanced at them and frowned in disgust.
"Kill them!"
Instantly, dozens of them rushed out like wolves and tigers.
They raised their sabers and killed all the top courtesans.
The beauties were gone. Blood splashed.
In an instant!
The entire Sacred Temple was silent.
The cries of the thousands of failed examinees were like ducks that had their throats strangled, instantly coming to a halt.
… …
The Third Prince Ning Qi was responsible for the failed candidates in the Sacred Temple.
Ning Zheng was responsible for the troublemakers.
Of course, the so-called Ning Zheng was actually Shen Lang.
He made a long list.
There were over a thousand people. All of them were hooligans who made a bet with him. However, in order to not abide by the agreement, they fanned the flames and took the opportunity to cause trouble.
He had a smart brain, and no one could escape his discerning eyes.
After receiving the Monarch's decree, Wu Lie, Ku Tou Huan, Lan Yi, Lan Er, and the others led a few hundred imperial guards and rushed into the houses.
Capture all the hooligans causing trouble.
Do you think hiding will work?
Do you think everything will be fine after running back home and closing the door?
In just two days!
The few hundred hooligans were all captured and escorted to an abandoned camp outside the capital.
Shen Lang appeared before them again.
The hooligans all knelt down.
"Young Master Shen Lang, it has nothing to do with us. You've captured the wrong people."
"Young Master Shen Lang, we know we were wrong. Please let us go."
"Young Master Shen Lang, the heavens are benevolent. Forgive people whenever possible."
"Young Master Shen Lang, as long as you let us go this time, we will say good things about you every day."
The hooligans were all pitiful. Their faces were full of tears and snot.
Shen Lang covered his nose and said, "There is a huge cesspool in front. There are more than a few hundred thousand jin of feces and urine in it. Because this is a compost area, eating ten jin is not easy! I only have one request. If you stay in this cesspool for half an hour and don't die, I will let you go! "
Following the order!
The imperial guards started to chase away the few hundred troublemakers.
The few hundred people wailed like ghosts and howled like wolves, hesitating.
The imperial guards pulled out their swords and slashed at the back.
The few hundred hooligans were chased into the huge cesspool. Then, they were like roosters that fell into the water.
They struggled with all their might, causing the stench to rise to the sky.
This scene was too horrible to look at!
Half an hour later!
There were less than five hundred people who managed to climb up alive.
Nearly half of the hooligans drowned in there. Their deaths were horrible!
