Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 147, Who put the note in my lunch box? You admit that this is your lunch box!
In fact, Guo Zheng was cursing Liu Hong in his heart.

It's really insulting, what kind of person is this! Everyone knows the truth, but they are talking about it openly.

Some people also blame Emperor Qing. It would have been fine if he sent the Kyoto Prefecture or the Imperial Guards to guard.

He had to dispatch Liu Hong and his group of thugs.

"Brother Shi... Lord Liu is indeed an extraordinary person!"

Hou Jichang looked at Liu Hong with his eyes almost popping out.

Shi Chanli turned his head and felt his face burning.

Although the words are rough, the logic is sound, but Liu Hong is too rough.

Students began to pour in, entered the examination hall, and were searched by inspectors.

Guo Zheng suppressed his dissatisfaction with Liu Hong.

Liu Hong was just an accident. The person that the Second Prince will eventually deal with is still Fan Xian.

I heard these days that Fan Xian had a very pleasant conversation with a scholar named Yang Wanli, and he even invited him to dinner.

Using this student would definitely not be enough to squeeze Fan Xian out, but making him lose face would be a good idea.

Before Yang Wanli even set foot into the Imperial Examination Hall, Liu Hong waved at him with a smile.

"Yang Wanli, come here!"

Facing Minister Liu, who was in charge of investigating fraud, the students around him showed sympathy.

However, his body was sensible enough to move away to avoid being implicated.

Yang Wanli was a man of integrity and had nothing to fear, but he didn't understand why Liu Hong called him that.

"grown ups?"

"It's nothing, don't be nervous, you are a disciple of my mansion, let me take a look at the food box to see if the cooks put in enough effort."

Liu Hong smiled and comforted Yang Wanli, and naturally took the food box from Yang Wanli.

Guo Zheng saw that the situation was not good. He wondered if Liu Hong wanted to interfere, so he quickly trotted to Yang Wanli.

When the food box was opened, Yang Wanli's pupils constricted.

"Who put the note in my lunch box?"

For a moment, Yang Wanli felt like he was on a roller coaster, with his emotions all over the place.

He was proud of his knowledge of worldly affairs, so he naturally would not rely on such tricks as cheating.

But the problem is that there was indeed a note in his lunch box.

Guo Zheng's eyes widened, he grabbed the note and roared.

"Do you admit that this is your lunch box?"

Then he seemed like a different person, looking at Fan Xian with a smile on his face.

"Master Xiao Fan, why don't you come and take a look? Do you know this man? He is so audacious! He cheated in front of Minister Liu."

Fan Xian's face also looked a little bad, and he glanced at Liu Hong with resentment.

No! You have nothing to do, why are you watching your chef cook?

What’s the matter? You still want to prepare four dishes for your guests during the imperial examination?

"Minister Guo, why don't you open the note and take a look."

Liu Hong sighed. How could he forget about this?

Now that Yang Wanli is his retainer, Liu Hong must of course provide him with shelter.

When Guo Zheng heard Liu Hong's words, his heart skipped a beat and he had a vague bad feeling.

He quickly opened the note and took a look.

"Three white flour buns and a duck leg..."

Guo Zheng looked at Yang Wanli's lunch box carefully. The names of the dishes on the note matched the ingredients exactly.

"No, you..."

Guo Zheng was suddenly speechless.

Liu Hong patted Yang Wanli on the shoulder.

"It's okay. The chef was probably careless and left the menu in your food box. It won't affect you."

Yang Wanli clasped his fists in gratitude towards Liu Hong, then quickly put away the lunch box and left in a hurry.

"Minister Liu, I was arbitrary in this matter..."

Guo Zheng forced a smile, apologized with gritted teeth, and cursed Xie Bian in his heart.

This guy is hiding his real name and is not a fallen ninth-rank master. How come he can't even handle such a small matter?

Xie Bian was truly innocent. He had originally wanted to slip a note, after all, there was no ninth-grade master around Liu Hong anymore.

But the problem was that Liu Hong actually arranged the city defense soldiers on the Longmen Bridge. He originally wanted to pass through in the opposite direction, but was driven out by the soldiers.

What can he do?
Liu Hong laughed, paced, and slowly left. Guo Zheng stood there in a daze, his expression uncertain. He suddenly realized that this time he had thought that he could frame Fan Xian for a small matter.

Now that Liu Hong has intervened, things seem a bit awkward.

"Sir, please smile. It's hard for me to draw you like this."

The painter couldn't help but remind.

Guo Zheng quickly put on a smile.

"Have you met Guo Youzhi?"

Liu Hong and Fan Xian casually glanced at the group of scholars who were being examined.

Fan Xian nodded, feeling very grateful.

"Thank you for bringing Guo Baokun here. Otherwise, if I hadn't paid attention, I might have been in trouble with Guo Zheng."

"So I'm sending Guo Youzhi to jail. You shouldn't have any objections, right? This is the condition of the exchange."

Liu Hong paused.

Originally, Guo Youzhi held a relatively unemployed official position and did not make much money. Having served in the office for decades, he was considered a capable official.

The result was that he stood on the wrong side and was treated as a discarded pawn by the eldest princess and the crown prince, becoming a scapegoat for their collusion with Northern Qi.

Fan Xian pondered for a while and nodded.

It had been so long since the incident happened, so he naturally didn't care.

Moreover, during the incident at Beihai Lake, although the five hundred veterans of the Qing Kingdom brought by Guo Baokun helped Liu Hong, they also saved Fan Xian's life.

"How come Fan Wujiu, an eighth-rank swordsman, is here to take part in the imperial examination?"

Fan Xian glanced around and raised his voice slightly.

Fan Wujiu, who was originally the captain of the Second Prince's personal guard, was like an ostrich at this time, and obediently cooperated with the city defense troops in the body search.

When Liu Hong saw Fan Wujiu, his face warmed up a little.

Among the eight generals under the Second Prince, the one Liu Hong admired the most was Fan Wujiu.

It can be considered as his own credit that Versace does not have to flee to Northern Qi, and Fan Wujiu does not have to risk going to the border.

When Fan Wujiu saw Fan Xian and Liu Hong, he became uneasy.

At this time, he was no longer the second prince's confidant, but one of the thousands of students.

"It's okay, we're just here to take a look, you continue with your test."

Liu Hong spoke gently and patted Fan Wujiu on the shoulder.

Seeing that Fan Wujiu and Liu Hong were obviously in bad condition, the soldiers checked much more quickly and efficiently and quickly let Fan Wujiu go.

The three-day imperial examination was hard for the scholars, not to mention that even Liu Hong felt uncomfortable.

The Imperial Examination Hall was closed and he had no way to go out.

After Fan Xian solved the problems with the candlelight and the toilet one after another, the smile on his face became more intense.

No matter what the imperial examination would be like in the future, at least the one presided over by him was the fairest.

"Have you decided? I'm afraid your father-in-law Lin Ruofu will be forced to resign and return home."

Fan Xian suppressed the smile on his face, calmed himself, and spoke slowly.

"Well! All gifts actually have prices secretly marked on them, don't they?"

Even though Fan Xian did not personally go to see Emperor Qing, Emperor Qing still issued an order to investigate the cases of cheating in the imperial examinations in recent years.

While making sure Fan Xian had a clear conscience, Emperor Qing was also preparing to clip Fan Xian's wings.

At this time, Fan Xian couldn't help but envy Liu Hong.

He was promoted from a commoner to a third-rank official. He did not have a deep foundation in the court, so the emperor could easily trust him.

It is simply a holy body of a lone minister!

Liu Hong ignored Fan Xian's words and just frowned slightly.

Holding a piece of paper in his hand, he threw it into the fire.

Emperor Qing is a bit petty! He wants to abolish the prime minister, but he still has to do these little tricks.

Unexpectedly, the first battle of the East Factory after its establishment was to guard the Imperial Examination Hall of the Ministry of Rites and replace Yang Wanli's name.

This character selection can be said to be quite ingenious.

Yang Wanli, a retainer of Liu Hong, was also admired by Fan Xian.

If he was not on the list, neither Liu Hong nor Fan Xian would let it go and would definitely investigate it thoroughly.

Then, Lin Ruofu's spy Yuan Hongdao stabbed him in the back, easily making the unprepared Lin Ruofu lose the initiative.

"Humph! You are so petty. If you want to depose the prime minister, then depose him. You don't have the courage of Zhu Yuanzhang, but you still want to become the most powerful emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang."

Liu Hong muttered to himself and tore the note into pieces.
