Chapter 572: The Tang Dynasty imperial examination fraud case, drawing the butcher

Jin Ling City.

Imperial Palace.

Li Er was throwing a tantrum in the Golden Hall.

"You must catch all these rumor-mongers. Spreading rumors and confusing the hearts of the people is truly hateful!"

Scattered on the floor of the great hall were some leaflets.

They had experienced this scene before.

Looking at these leaflets, they were beautifully drawn and the paper quality was extremely high, so they knew who they came from.

It was Great Qin again!

Li Er was throwing a tantrum, and the ministers in the hall stood with lowered brows and did not make a sound.

After he had vented enough, a military general stepped out of the ranks to report.

"Your Majesty, I have sent more men to patrol at night. Such things will certainly not happen again tonight!"

One sentence ignited Li Er's anger again.

"Not tonight? Then what about tomorrow night, or the night after?"

"You can send more men to Jin Ling, but what about Jiujiang and Luzhou?"

The person was left speechless.

Encountering such a shameless "600" propaganda method from Great Qin, no one had any way to deal with it!

At this time, the eyes of all the ministers in the hall fell on one person.

Zhangsun Wuji.

Only he could soothe the Emperor's emotions at such a time.

Feeling the gazes of his colleagues, Zhangsun Wuji had to step out of the ranks to report.

"Your Majesty, the rumors about the Tang imperial examination scam have already spread. Sealing mouths now is probably of no help. It is a pity that my son, Zhangsun Chong, has to suffer such infamy even after death!" Hearing Zhangsun Wuji's shameless words, the civil and military officials could not help but secretly spit in disgust.

Was Zhangsun Chong slandered?

He deserved it, didn't he!

If it weren't for your Zhangsun family forcibly occupying the top graduate's position, the imperial examination scam would not have been spread so grandly!

Li Er looked at Zhangsun Wuji's thick-skinned face and wished he could spit on him.

But he could not!

He had to stand on Zhangsun Wuji's side and refute those so-called "rumors".

How could the Tang imperial examination be a scam?

It must be fair and just, the hope of the scholars of the world!

"Wuji, say no more. Just tell me how to resolve the current situation?"

Once the hearts of the scholars from humble backgrounds are shaken, I fear their trust in the imperial court will also be shaken. My Great Tang empire is already riddled with holes and cannot withstand such tossing anymore!"

Zhangsun Wuji's eyes sharpened.

"Your Majesty, there is no other way now but to thoroughly investigate the imperial examination fraud case and execute a few corrupt officials to appease the anger of the scholars from humble backgrounds! My son, Zhangsun Chong, committed bribery and deserves to be beheaded. I have failed to teach my son and am willing to accept joint punishment, resign from my official position, and return to my hometown!"

Zhangsun Wuji's move was truly ruthless! ===== CHAPTER 574 =====
