Chapter 156 Fraud
Xie Baoyin kept vomiting, and the maid remembered again, "Young madam, your monthly letter is two days late."
Hearing this, Xie Baoyin's eyes also showed some expectation.
Unfortunately, the next day, the imperial doctor was invited to the house to diagnose her pulse. "My lady has gastrointestinal discomfort. It's already autumn. My lady, you'd better not be greedy for cold weather and eat less cold food."
Mrs. Qin was a little disappointed. It had been more than half a year since her daughter-in-law married into the house, and her stomach still hadn't moved.
Thinking that my son and daughter-in-law were not very close, I decided to give the eldest maid next to me to my son.
Qin Zhaoxi refused, "My son wants to build a successful career and cannot indulge in female sex."
"My son has great ambitions, which is certainly good, but he cannot..."
"Mother, in a family like ours, having a concubine's eldest son is a sign of chaos." Qin Zhaoxi interrupted her.
"Just give them the duck soup."
"Mother, people's hearts are unpredictable and impossible to guard against." Qin Zhaoxi said seriously.
Mrs. Qin thought about it for a while and then stopped insisting, "As long as you have an idea."
A few days later, during the morning court, an official reported, "Your Majesty, students in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, suspect that there is fraud in the examination papers."
"What evidence is there?" the emperor asked.
"It is reported that there is a person who is ignorant and has no skills, but he has passed the exam in high school, but the real talented person has failed the exam." The official said, taking out an answer sheet, "This is what the student who failed the exam wrote silently.
Yes, please take a look at it."
Eunuch Yu stepped forward to take the answer sheet and forward it to the emperor.
The emperor has also been taught by famous teachers, and he can still tell the quality of current affairs policies. Based on this policy alone, it is impossible for this student to fail the exam.
"Who is the examiner who is going to Chengdu, Sichuan Province this time?" the emperor asked.
"Your Majesty, I am Tan Shidu of Hanlin Academy." The official replied.
"Tan Shidu is always fair. There must be a loophole somewhere." King Ding went out to help Tan Shidu explain the matter.
He was the one who recommended Tan Shi to study in Chengdu, Sichuan Province.
"Tan Shi is the chief examiner in Qiu Wei of Sichuan Province. He is determined to serve the public and is not partial. However, such a big mistake was made before the results were graded and the results were released. He is also responsible for the suspicion of fraud."
"Your Majesty, students have been studying hard for more than ten years. If there is fraud in Qiu Wei, it will chill the hearts of students all over the world. I beg your Majesty to investigate it strictly."
Officials made statements one after another, and the emperor ordered Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment, Zuo Du Yushi of Ducha Yuan, Zuo Si Cheng of Dali Temple, and bachelors of Hanlin Academy to go to Sichuan Province to investigate the matter.
"It must be carefully verified and the students must be given an explanation." The emperor said solemnly.
"Your Majesty is wise." All the ministers bowed.
On the same day, after such long and difficult negotiations, the two countries finally reached an agreement on mutual trade.
Da Qin traded porcelain, tea, silk and cotton fabrics, herbal medicines, dyes and other items with Chagatai.
Chagatai Kingdom provides: gold, silver, jade, furs, woolen goods, horses, cotton and other items.
The emperor was happy and entered the harem, but then he was shocked to find that he couldn't do it.
"Xuan Taiyi, Xuan Taiyi quickly." The emperor shouted in panic.
Eunuch Yu sent his servant to ask for the imperial doctor, and he went in to inquire about the situation, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
The emperor was speechless and his face was as heavy as water.
The concubine on the dragon bed was shivering with her arms around the quilt.
The emperor's appointment of the imperial physician cannot be concealed from anyone.
Every government knows everything it needs to know.
The person who knows the inside story best is King Jin.
The final effect of Yu Huan is presented!
The person who used Yu Huan for the emperor has never been found out.
This man hides so well!
He seemed to be a powerful person, so King Jin ordered his men, "If you can't find it, don't do it."
If you offend someone and sprinkle some royal pleasure on him, it will be an unreasonable disaster.
Jiang Changning had no way of knowing about Prince Jin's concerns, but when she learned from Xiao Chun that no one was investigating Yu Huan's matter, she felt truly relieved.
In late September, the government began to tailor winter clothes.
After the ingredients distributed to Prince Jin's Mansion were delivered to the mansion, Jiang Changning first took the ingredients to the concubine to select.
The concubine chose a piece of ginger-yellow brocade with floral patterns and an ebony-colored brocade with embroidered branches.
Princess Kangren was also there, so Jiang Changning said: "Kangren has grown taller. I'm afraid I won't be able to wear last year's cotton-padded clothes. Pick out some more materials and choose the ones you like."
"Thank you, Auntie." Princess Kangren had a slight smile on her face.
During her filial piety period, she couldn't wear too bright colors, so she chose a pine-colored brocade with dark patterns and a white brocade with small blue flowers embroidered on it...
After she had selected four pieces of material, the concubine took out the bright red satin with dark silver threads and said with a smile: "Brother Yu's daughter-in-law, this is the best thing for you to wear."
"Thank you, Concubine. Concubine, you have such a good taste." Jiang Changning said with a smile.
In addition to this piece of bright red satin, Jiang Changning picked two more pieces and one piece of black material.
The concubine had never seen Jiang Changning wear a black dress before, so she knew she had chosen it for Prince Jin, and she smiled with satisfaction.
The daughter-in-law cares about her son, which she likes to see.
Jiang Changning and Fangju sent the other ingredients to Mr. Pu to choose.
When Mrs. Pu saw the materials, she asked: "Miss Fangju, how many horses did the princess pick?"
"The princess picked three horses." Fangju replied.
Mrs. Pu did not dare to go beyond Jiang Changning, so she only picked two pieces of material.
Like Mr. Pu, Chen Yi asked Jiang Changning and then Ms. Pu, and also picked two horses.
After Ms. Liu learned of this situation, she complained: "How can I choose?"
He picked one at random and said, "That's it. Really, last year's designs and colors were all new. How can I wear them during the Chinese New Year?"
The other concubines also picked a piece of material each.
Fangju returned to Rujingyuan with the remaining dozen pieces of materials.
"Why are there so many left?" Jiang Changning was leaning on the imperial concubine's couch, reading a storybook, raised his eyes, and asked with a frown.
As soon as Fangju explained the matter, Jiang Changning smiled and said, "It seems that he knows the rules quite well!"
"It's just superficial." Xiulan curled her lips and said.
Jiang Changning put the storybook on the small table and stood up, "As long as it's acceptable on the surface, I'll give these two to Mrs. Pu and these two to Mrs. Chen."
After dividing the dozen or so pieces of material, the remaining three pieces were said, "You can use them to make new clothes."
"Thank you, Princess." The maids said happily.
"But Princess, you only picked three pieces of material, which is not enough to make new clothes." Xiulan said.
"I only have one body, and I can wear as many materials as I want. Besides, I don't like the patterns of these materials. I might as well ask the prince to help me find some good materials to make new clothes."
"What materials do you want? I'll help you find them." King Jin came in from outside.
"You didn't let anyone inform you, so you came in quietly and eavesdropped on our conversation." Jiang Changning pouted.
"I listened openly, but I didn't eavesdrop." King Jin said with a smile.
The maids withdrew, and Jiang Changning stepped forward to help him undress, "Why are you back so early today?"
King Jin took off his belt and handed it to her, "I have nothing to do at the Yamen, so I'm back."
The emperor's illness couldn't be cured, and he was looking for an excuse to cause trouble, so he didn't want to get into trouble.
