Chapter 258 Hey, stop talking
Everyone inspected the examination room for several times and found nothing unusual.
The night was getting darker, and all the officials were exhausted.
There were many government officials patrolling the night, so Li Shimin asked half of the examiners to rest first, while the other half continued to patrol.
Yu Shinan and Wei Zheng also went to rest.
Zhao Chen and others were sitting in the lobby of the examination room, with several cups placed on the table.
"Zhao Chen, why didn't you check those clothes just now? If there is really something inside, you, the deputy examiner, will be the one to blame." After sitting down and drinking a cup of tea, Li Shimin talked to Zhao Chen about what happened just now.
He is the emperor and cannot say whether he will test it or not.
Otherwise, there must be a dilemma.
But Zhao Chen is different. He is the deputy examiner, and it is his responsibility to check everything.
Other officials would only think that Zhao Chen was fulfilling his duties and there would be no other gossip.
However, Zhao Chen didn't even look at it and had someone take it over to the candidates.
Isn’t this just making yourself uncomfortable?
Li Shimin was a little confused about what Zhao Chen was thinking.
"The behavior of the Marquis of Zhao County just now is indeed inappropriate. It will leave an impression in everyone's mind that you are not worthy of your moral character, which is not good for your future future." Changsun Wuji also said slowly.
Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, he understood it now.
If it were him, no matter whether he was involved or not, he would definitely go up and search.
"Lao Cheng, Xiao Qin, do you think there is anything wrong with what I just did?" Zhao Chen did not answer the two of them, but asked Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu who were standing aside.
The two of them were confused. They didn't expect that Zhao Chen would suddenly ask for his opinion.
Cheng Chumo thought about it and said, "I knew Zhao Chen that what you did was definitely right. There is no problem."
Cheng Chumo's words confused both Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji.
Is this the devil in Cheng Yaojin's family?
Why is there no bottom line?
"
I also think that there is really no need to check. Since they dare to take it in front of His Majesty, they will naturally not put anything in it. "
"Otherwise, if they were found out in person, wouldn't they be covering their ears and stealing the bell?" Qin Huaiyu shook his head and agreed with Zhao Chen's statement.
"Then, they are really good officials who only care about our country, the Tang Dynasty..."
"puff--"
Before Zhao Chen could swallow a sip of tea, he was made to laugh by Old Li Tou's words.
I couldn't hold it back and squirted out directly.
Fortunately, Lao Li could dodge quickly, otherwise he would have been sprayed all over the place.
"Boy Zhao, please calm down." Li Shimin was startled, with a sullen look on his face.
I don't know if it was because of what Zhao Chen said just now, or because he was almost sprayed all over himself.
Anyway, Li Shimin is very unhappy now.
Changsun Wuji smacked his lips, looked at the emperor, then at Zhao Chen, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Anyway, he knew that if he almost sprayed the emperor, he would definitely be dragged down and beaten.
Let alone anyone else.
Zhao Chen, the emperor just gave a verbal reprimand?
Changsun Wuji realized more and more that his guess was traceable.
"Accidentally." Zhao Chen wiped away the tea on Table Mountain with a handkerchief, and said, "Old Li Tou, you don't really think that all the officials of the Tang Dynasty are as dedicated to serving the people as I am, regardless of gains and losses."
"What kind of relationship do they have that allows them to buy clothes for candidates in person?"
"All the yamen who are inspecting the inspection have no legs or something?"
"The examiner went to buy the clothes in person. If there is nothing fishy in them, would you believe it?"
After Zhao Chen finished speaking, he looked at Old Li Tou.
Li Shimin lost his face
smoke.
Although I feel contempt for Zhao Chen's self-proclaimed words.
But as Zhao Chen said, what kind of examiner would personally buy clothes for candidates?
There are so many patrol officers in the examination room. If there is really a need, why can't they help?
There is definitely a ghost here.
It's just that those examiners dared to take out those clothes for inspection. Isn't this even more strange?
"Marquis Zhao, according to what you said, there must be something wrong with those people, so how dare they take out the clothes for inspection?" Changsun Wuji also had the same doubts.
This is what they can't figure out.
Checking them would be a cover-up.
Or, those officials dared to try their luck in front of them.
"It means there is no inclusion in the clothes at all. We can't find it through inspection." Zhao Chen said with a smile.
Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji looked at each other. After Zhao Chen explained this, they were even more confused.
This Zhao Chen always plays riddles with them, which is really disgusting.
"Boy Zhao, if you play riddles with someone again, do you believe that someone will slap you?" Li Shimin lowered his face and glared at Zhao Chen.
"Lord Pushe, is Doctor Wei Li Tou's daily servant, who is responsible for recording the emperor's words and deeds?" Zhao Chen looked at Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji didn't know why, but nodded.
Wei Zheng held many positions, including the post of Living Lang.
It is dedicated to recording the emperor's daily words and deeds.
"That's just in time. I'll go find Dr. Wei and ask him to record what our Emperor said before he slapped me." Zhao Chen pretended to stand up and said to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin's face turned black at that time.
I just yelled at him, but this guy dared to threaten me with Wei Zheng.
Daily notes will be the material for compiling historical materials in the future, which requires
If he is recorded, then he, Li Shimin, still needs the majesty of the emperor.
"Zhao Chen, Wei Zheng has been tired for a whole day, so just let him have a good rest, okay? What you just said was a bit extreme, so don't take it to heart."
"Now sit down and talk to me about what happened to those people just now." Li Shimin said slowly, with such an attitude that even Zhang Sun Wuji couldn't stand it.
Changsun Wuji looked aside.
I simply cannot imagine how future generations would evaluate the emperor's attitude if it were recorded in history books.
"Actually, it's very simple. Think about the deed I wrote to you before." Zhao Chen said to Li Shimin with a smile.
Needless to say, although it was dangerous to anger the emperor, Zhao Chen felt inexplicably comfortable seeing the emperor's attitude.
After all, the guy in front of him is the real Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
But Lao Li Tou still sounds cute sometimes.
Despite his eagerness for knowledge, Zhao Chen was still willing to help him.
"That contract you wrote to someone? What contract?" Li Shimin didn't seem to come to his senses for a moment.
"That's the one written to Xingyang Zheng..."
"Hey, I got it, that's it, you don't have to say anything anymore!" Before Zhao Chen could finish speaking, he saw the emperor suddenly stand up.
He quickly stopped Zhao Chen and prevented him from continuing.
But Li Shimin remembered that with the help of Zhao Chen, he wrote a seal deed to Zheng He of the Zheng family in Xingyang.
The people of Chang'an City survived the heavy rain disaster that month.
Although none of those aristocratic families have good things, this matter cannot be spread.
He is the emperor after all, and he cannot be known to others about his deception.
Changsun Wuji felt extremely strange as to why the emperor was so excited when he heard about the deed.
"Your Majesty, what kind of contract is it?" Changsun Wuji asked.
