549 The mastermind behind the scenes that surfaced (big chapter) -3

………..

In the afternoon, Xu Qi ‘an came out of the noble spirit building. Wei Yuan’s words echoed in his mind, “High Duke Cao and the North vanquishing Prince shared the same pair of pants.

Yesterday evening, he had received Wang simu’s ” secret letter “. He had thought about it for a long time and felt that it was highly credible, but he did not believe it rashly.

After lunch, she had asked Wei Yuan to verify it and received a positive answer.

The North-guarding King and I have nothing to do with each other. This should be state Duke Cao’s own thoughts, but I am also not familiar with state Duke Cao, so why is he targeting me?

The Vajra power … This thought flashed through Xu Qi ‘an’s mind.

On his way back to the hall of one blade, he met an official who happened to be looking for him. “Lord Xu, there’s someone outside looking for you,”

“Who is it?” Xu Qi ‘an’s eyes flashed.

“They are from King Huai’s residence.” The clerk replied.

King Huai’s mansion … “I know,” Xu Qi ‘an let out a breath of air.

He immediately turned around and walked out of the Yamen. When he reached the gate, he saw a luxurious carriage parked by the side of the road. Two rows of armored soldiers were guarding the carriage.

Seeing Xu Qi ‘an come out, a guard immediately came over and said, “”Are you Xu yinluo?”

Xu Qi ‘an nodded.

“General Ying is waiting for you in the carriage.” The guard said.

….. After pondering for a few seconds, he followed the guard to the carriage and heard a man’s deep voice coming from inside, “”Come in and talk.”

The voice carried a tone of someone who had been in a position of power for a long time, more like an order.

Xu Qi ‘an boarded the carriage and entered the carriage.

In the spacious carriage sat a man with a beard. He was wearing a light purple robe, had a square face, dark skin, and a sharp gaze.

The bearded man made a gesture for Xu Qi ‘an to take a seat. He said in a deep voice, ”

“I heard that Xu yinluo’s cousin was involved in the imperial examination fraud case.”

“General, you are …” Xu Qi ‘an stared at him and probed.

The bearded man replied simply, ” Chu Xianglong, the Deputy general of the North-guarding King.

The Deputy general of the North-guarding King … Xu Qi ‘an narrowed his eyes. shouldn’t you be guarding the North? why did you return to the capital? ”

“This is not something a silver Gong like you should be asking.” The bearded man said lightly.

“I’m looking for you to make a deal,” he continued after a pause.

“General, please speak.”

“Hand over the cultivation method of the Vajra power, and I’ll help you get the person out of prison.” Chu Xianglong stared at him with a burning gaze.

Sure enough, it was for the Vajra power. Well, which martial artist would not want this protective divine skill? monk Shenshu’s indestructible body had the Vajra power. Even high-ranked martial artists would covet this cultivation method …

“In that case, Duke Cao and this person are plotting to obtain my Vajra Arts, taking advantage of the situation and reaping benefits from me …”

“The invincible Vajra of the Buddhist sect can’t be learned by ordinary people. One must have great luck.” Xu Qi ‘an reminded him.

I don’t need you to remind me. Since you’ve learned the Vajra power, it means that you’ve understood its profoundness. If you can carve it out, it’s up to me whether I can cultivate it or not. Chu Xianglong was relieved, ”

“As long as you can record the profound meaning of the divine Art, I will have a way to get him out.”

You’re not just trying to suck my bones dry, you’re also trying to play with my intelligence? Xu Qian sneered in his heart and asked, ”

“May I ask general, how do we save them?”

“I have my own ways.” Replied Chu Xianglong calmly.

“This case involves a lot of people, and it’s complicated. Those civil officials won’t listen to you. General, please don’t treat me like a three-year-old child.” Xu Qi ‘an sneered.

“I only said to save him, I didn’t say to exonerate him.” Chu Xianglong stared at Xu Qi ‘an with sharp eyes and said, ”

“He’s just a nobody. No one will really pester him. I’m confident that he’ll be given a lighter punishment. At most, he’ll be able to take part in the imperial examination again after three years.

“With the painstaking efforts of the cloud deer Institute in Qingzhou, that would be the best place for him to go.”

Xu Qi ‘an’s eyes flashed and he said,”okay!” However, my request is to Save the People First.”

Chu Xianglong nodded.

After the conversation ended and they left the carriage, Xu Qi ‘an stood expressionlessly by the street.

Now, he could confirm the true purpose of High Duke Cao’s instigation.

this group of f * cking dogs has long coveted my Vajra Arts. Previously, I was in the limelight, so they were afraid. Now, they’re taking advantage of the imperial examination fraud case to suppress Erlang so that I’ll submit and hand over the Vajra Arts …

“Sure, see how I’m going to trick you guys.”

After the carriage disappeared from his sight, he did not return to the Yamen, but disappeared at the end of the long Street.

…………

After a day and a night, the rumors of the imperial examination fraud case broke out the next day.

From the nobles to the commoners, everyone was talking about this matter, and it became a topic of conversation after tea and meals. The most heated discussions were among the scholars. Some people didn’t believe that Xu Huiyuan had cheated, but more scholars chose to believe it. They clapped and cheered, praising the Imperial court for doing a good job and saying that those who cheated in the imperial examination should be severely punished to give an explanation to all the scholars in the world.

Xu niannian’s reputation took a sharp turn for the worse. From the Huiyuan who was praised and admired, he became the villain who was criticized by everyone.

Xu niannian, who was in prison, had no idea about this. He was in the middle of the first interrogation by the Ministry of Justice and the government.

“Ho, Ho …” The jailer knocked on the bars with a stick and scolded, ”

“Xu niannian, come out with me. The adults want to interrogate you.”

On the other side, in the interrogation room, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice and the magistrate of the government office were sitting behind a table. They were drinking tea and discussing the case.
