Chapter 29 Trial

The next day, a re-examination was held in the Baohe Hall of the Imperial Palace. It turns out that all filial piety has to take the re-examination before they can ask questions. Candidates entered from dawn, went through naming, scattered papers, praise, salute and other etiquette, and then issued questions.

Jingyao waited for Lu Zheng outside the palace nervously. When he was bored, he came to lift the sedan chair in the distance, and the two father-in-law bowed to lead the way. A team of pawns followed him and hurried over.

Seeing that Jingyao blocked the way, the two eunuchs frowned coldly and shouted, "Get out of the way, Meng Guifei back to the palace!"

Tong Jingyao didn't want to be rampant, so she flashed aside. The curtain of the sedan was suddenly pulled open. A lady looked at Tong Jingyao, ordered the sedan to stop, and asked with a smile, "Which adult's daughter is this girl?"

It turned out that at that time, some children of officials entered the palace for the examination, and their relatives could wait outside the palace. Sometimes the emperor was happy and ordered their father-in-law to send chairs to show their comfort. Ordinary people don't think about it. So Meng Guifei thought that Jing Yao must be the child of a minister.

Tong Jingyao said neither humble nor arrogantly: "I am Tong Jingyao, the daughter of Lieutenant Tong Anbang. I just got home yesterday. Wait for a friend here for the re-examination.

The two father-in-law scolded, "There are no rules. I don't salute when I see the noble concubine."

Meng Guifei waved her hand with a smile and said, "Miss Tong has just returned to the capital and still doesn't understand these etiquette. It's not surprising if you don't know." After saying that, he looked at Jingyao twice and put down the curtain.

"Ring up the sedan chair!" With the sharp shouts of the eunuchs, the sedan chair was lifted up again and walked to the palace.

Jingyao made a face at the faraway team and thought to heart, "If you have a father, you will have a daughter. It's not a good thing to think about it." At this moment, the side door of the palace opened and a group of lifters came out.

Tong Jingyao saw Lu Zheng at a glance, greeted him with an arrow and asked with a smile, "Brother Zheng, how was the exam?"

When the people beside them saw Jing Yao, who was as beautiful as a fairy, they all looked at Lu Zheng with great envy and said goodbye to Lu Zheng one after another.

Lu Zheng greeted the people and smiled at Jing Yao, "It's just an old talk. There is no problem in entering the hall tonight."

At this time, a pig-headed rat eye, with a hanging eyebrows, came over and first looked at Jingyao with a squint, and then boxed Lu Zheng and said, "Brother Nian is polite!"

Lu Zheng took a look at the person and replied, "It's a pleasure to meet you!"

The man said, "Look at the heroic and talented people, I have the intention to get to know him. Hey hey, to be honest, Meng Guifei, who just entered the palace, is my cousin. As long as you recommend it, there is no problem for Brother Bao Nian to get a biography.

It turned out that at that time, the palace examination was divided into three, and the imperial approval of the first, second and third places were the champion, the first eye, and the exploration of flowers. One Jia three people are called "Jingshi and Di", also known as "Three Tripods". Several people in Erjia are called "Jingshi origin", and the first name of Erjia is passed down.

Hearing this, Tong Jingyao knew that this person was also Meng's nephew. She was willing to play, so she asked with a smile, "Why don't you give me one of the top three?"

"That won't work!" The man immediately cracked his mouth and said, "The champion is mine, and Bangyan and Tanhua also have their own masters. The top three of 1A have been wrapped up. Erjia can still think about it.

After saying that, he opened his mung bean's eyes and looked around and whispered to Lu Zheng, "Fifty amount of silver can include you in the second-class list, and add another 50,000, and you will definitely upload it!"

Jingyao deliberately asked, "Yo, why is it so expensive?"

The man hurriedly nodded and smiled at Jingyao, "The girl has talked, and you can fold it in half!" It's just that I'm just thinking about kissing Fangze. I don't know if the girl can be a good face?

Looking at this person's disgusting expression, Jingyao couldn't help scolding, "Go get close to your mother!" After saying that, a slap fanned the man three times.

This man was dizzy and finally stood firm. He covered his face with his hand and pointed to Jing Yao and stammered, "You... dare to hit... hit me..."

"Master Jinglun! Why are you here?" A man came from the distance and shouted.

Lu Zheng and Tong Jingyao recognized this person. It was Master Shaoxing who went to the lieutenant's mansion yesterday to invite Lieutenant Tong to the banquet.

Meng Jinglun cried and said to the master, "Master, she, she hit me!" Hurry up and show your uncle and kill her whole family!"

"Nonsense!" The master hurriedly said, "This lady is the daughter of Lieutenant Tong. She just went home yesterday to save her relatives. You must be angry because you don't know etiquette. Why don't you make amends quickly!"

Hearing that Jing Yao was the daughter of the current lieutenant, Meng Jinglun was dumbfounded and said more, "Miss Tong... I'm just here... I'm just talking to you. Two...don't...don't take it seriously!" A small face turned pale because of excessive fright.

Jing Yao sneered and said, "You are so bold that you dare to openly sell the ranking of the palace. I don't know if this is the original intention of the old master?" After saying that, a pair of beautiful eyes stared at the master.

The master's face suddenly changed and he waved his hand and said, "Miss Tong's words are bad. Jinglun has been crazy since he was a child. When he is sick, he will talk nonsense, which has nothing to do with my master." After saying that, he gave Meng Jinglun a winch.

Meng Jinglun hurriedly covered his head and rolled his eyes and shouted, "Oh, I'm crazy again. Master, call me Langzhong quickly!" After saying that, he ran to the distance while shouting.

The master hugged the two and said, "Master Meng is sick again. I have to follow him and don't make any more mistakes. You two, I'll leave first." After saying that, he also ran without a trace with Meng Jinglun's figure.

Lu Zheng covered his stomach and couldn't help laughing. He pointed to Tong Jingyao and said with a smile, "On that day, in the 'Yuelai Inn' in the town outside Heilong, you also said that you were crazy, and you don't want anyone to do something today!"

Jing Yao also smiled and said, "That day, it was up to you to make it up, which made me have to act and show it to others." After saying that, he smiled and said, "This young master Meng Jinglun, with a head of sorghum flowers, how can he look full of experience? I think it's better to call Meng**!"

When Lu Zheng saw what she said was funny, he couldn't help laughing again.

The two returned to the lieutenant's mansion together and told Tong Anbang what had just happened again. Tong Anbang muttered, "There are really a lot of 'good relatives' in Meng Taishi's family! Taking advantage of the big exam, they were all inserted into six government departments and became his party members.

Jingyao said, "One person gets the way, and the chicken and dog ascends to the sky. These unlearned and incompetent people, along with Meng Sixu, do evil together and help Zhou to abuse, which is really abominable!"

Thinking of this, Jing Yao said again, "Today I also saw Meng Guifei and said a few words to her."

Tong Anbang listened and hurriedly asked, "What did she say to you?"

Tong Jingyao thought for a moment and said, "I didn't say anything, but I just asked which adult's daughter I am. Looking at her like that, she pays a lot of attention to me.

Tong Anbang doubted: "This Meng Guifei is not like her bastard brothers. She is quite calculating and can be said to be Meng Taishi's think tank. When she saw you, she didn't know what the hell she was thinking.

Tong Jingyao smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad. She is just a mortal. What's so scary?"

Lu Zheng said, "She is the emperor's favorite concubine. She can control the life and death of others by blowing the emperor by the pillow. As the current lieutenant, the old uncle is an obstacle for Master Meng to monopolize the power of the imperial court, and it is precisely the thorn in his eyes that does not get rid of his unhappiness. We'd better be careful!"

Hearing this, Jingyao said nervously, "Dad, I will never leave you in the future. Let's see what Meng Laoer can do to you!"

Tong Anbang smiled and said, "These have been arranged by your uncle. Don't worry."

After the family had dinner, Lu Zheng went to Baohe Hall overnight. This hall was to start the exam at night and wait until dawn to hand in the papers. Unexpectedly, he saw Tong Jinglun again on the road and came forward to talk to Lu Zheng. Lu Zhengxin said that this person is really the best in the world.

Officials of the Ministry of Ceremonies carefully checked the portrait and checked the identity of the candidates one by one. After ranking in order, everyone sat in their own seats.

The chief official of the ceremonial department distributed the test papers to the examinees' tables, and everyone began to grind ink, polish the pen and answer the questions.

Lu Zheng noticed Meng Jinglun's movement and saw him sitting in the last row, looking at the rolls of words, and he was stunned and motionless.

After a while, the official of the Ministry of Ceremonies visited the scene, covered everyone's eyes with more than half of his body, took out a paper that had already been copied from his sleeve, and dropped the original test paper.

Lu Zheng secretly scolded: "What a despicable means, how can these ten years of hard-old students!" If you want to rectify Meng Jinglun, think about it for a moment and immediately make up your mind.

At present, Lu Zheng finished the question and answer, and handed in the paper after dawn.

When the crowd came out of the palace, some were worried, some were overjoyed, and some were full of worries. Meng Jinglun rushed up from behind, walked beside Lu Zheng, and said with a smile, "After inquire, I know that Brother Nian's surname is Lu. I don't know how well Brother Lu did in the exam?"

Lu Zheng looked at Meng Jinglun, smiled and said, "It's not as good as Brother Meng. He finished the test paper without saying a word, which is really admirable to Lu!"

Meng Jinglun's face turned white and whispered, "Brother Lu has seen it?"
