The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

"What deed, did you hear it correctly?"

Li Shimin would not tell the truth to Changsun Wuji.

Otherwise, he would lose the face of the emperor.

Changsun Wuji frowned, seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, but he didn't dare to ask anymore.

"Zhao Chen, you mean, they wrote the answers on those clothes?" Li Shimin said in a deep voice, his face a little ugly.

These examiners were so courageous that they dared to directly participate in cheating in the imperial examination.

Li Shimin had no pity for the examiners at this moment.

He was so angry that he wanted to kill them all.

"Of course it is." Zhao Chen nodded.

The only thing that made Zhao Chen curious was who actually discovered the magical effects of cuttlefish juice?

…

"Master Liu, Your Majesty and Zhao Chen are talking behind you. They are very happy and will not come over. The other officials have gone to rest, and all the government officials around have taken care of themselves."

In the examination room, several officials responsible for inspection gathered together.

An examiner and Master Liu, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, whispered.

"Have all the clothes been sent out?" Mr. Liu asked softly, looking across the empty lobby.

"It's been sent out. They are all our own, but..." The examiner hesitated.

"Just what?" Mr. Liu frowned.

"Just to capture that Zhao Chen, so many of us will be implicated together, right..."

"What do you know? This is the order of several family heads. We all rely on the family to get where we are today."

"As long as Zhao Chen is accused of being unfavorable in proctoring the exam, the family heads will mobilize the officials to strip Zhao Chen of his title. When Zhao Chen is killed, the family heads will naturally not forget us."

"If we can't stay in Chang'an City, it would be a blessing to go to a local place and become the county magistrate."

"With the guarantees from several family heads, what are you worried about?

? "Master Liu looked cold and scolded softly.

"Yes, yes, with the head of the family behind us, we will be fine."

"Then Zhao Chen actually made enemies of various aristocratic families. He was really blinded."

"When His Majesty discovers that there are multiple identical test papers, he will definitely hold all the invigilators accountable, and Zhao Chen will not be able to escape either."

"It was Zhao Chen who said he wouldn't inspect it just now. He can bear the main responsibility."

The other people said with a smile.

"Go ahead and tell them to be careful. I'll keep an eye on the front in case anyone comes out." Mr. Liu waved.

The examiners scattered.

The examination room was quiet, and many candidates were already resting in their cubicles.

Only a few people are still thinking hard.

And a few dozen people, wearing the same clothes on their bodies, slowly approached the candlelight.

Under the candlelight, ink stains the size of mosquitoes appeared on the clothes that were originally empty.

If you look closely, you can see that there are dense handwritings.

The candidates looked overjoyed, holding the handle in their hands and writing down their answers on the blank answer sheet.

Time passed slowly, and the patrolling government officials were no longer moving around.

They all fell asleep leaning against the pillars.

"Hey brother, isn't it unfair to other scholars if you cheat like this?" A sudden explosion made a scholar who was writing furiously look shocked.

Then I saw him throwing down the clothes he was wearing, not daring to look at the person in front of him.

"What's going on?" Master Liu, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, woke up immediately when he heard the sound and hurried over here.

Then I saw Zhao Chen alone

Standing outside a small cubicle, looking at himself with a smile on his face.

"Master Liu, this person cheated and I caught him." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"Cheating, how is it possible? The deputy examiner must have made a mistake."

"This scholar has been answering seriously all the time. You see, there is no meddling or anything." Mr. Liu looked through the cheating scholar's answer sheet and luggage, and gave the scholar a wink.

"Sir, the student's hands were just a little cold, so he put his clothes on the candlelight to warm them up. Unexpectedly, the master misunderstood him. It's all the student's fault." The scholar stood up and said to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen was not in a hurry.

I knew in my heart that they just wanted to delay time.

However, the writing on the clothing is only invisible, which does not mean it will disappear completely.

"Master Liu is from the Cui family in Qinghe, right?" Zhao Chen said casually.

"Xiaguan once taught in the Cui family's school in Qinghe. We had contacts, but we can't call them people." Mr. Liu smiled and said to Zhao Chen, but his eyes swept over the person who was thrown aside without leaving a trace. of clothing.

"So that's it. The Cui family of Qinghe is a wealthy family, and Master Liu actually doesn't want to have a relationship with them." Zhao Chen nodded and said noncommittally.

Mr. Liu didn't know whether Zhao Chen noticed the traces on the clothes or not, and he was very nervous at the moment.

Gritting his teeth, he said to Zhao Chen, "Deputy Chief Examiner, it's already late at night. You should go back and rest first. I'll leave the matters here to my subordinates."

"Hey, Mr. Liu, do you think those heads of aristocratic families are going to let you be buried with me?"

"After all, if a problem is found, everyone will be involved." Zhao Chen leaned against the pillar of the cubicle and asked with a smile.

"Sir, what are you talking about? In this autumn examination, there are adults here who are closely monitoring the situation."

Surveillance must be foolproof..."

"But I'm afraid that someone wants to frame me. For example, this piece of clothing looks very ordinary." Zhao Chen pointed at the piece of clothing that was thrown on the ground and said slowly.

"Master Zhao, what do you mean, in the middle of the night, you are here just to doubt your colleagues?" Master Liu's expression changed and he scolded.

A lot of time had passed by now, and the cubicle was dark and humid at night, and the temperature was extremely low.

The writing should also disappear.

"Since Mr. Zhao doesn't believe it, I will take the clothes and let Mr. Zhao take a look." Mr. Liu said angrily.

He took the clothes that had been thrown aside from the scholar's hands.

When the clothes were in hand, Mr. Liu glanced at them and did not see any writing on them.

It is clear in my heart, and all the writing has faded.

"Master Zhao, look at it, is there any possibility of cheating in these clothes?" Master Liu angrily stuffed the clothes into Zhao Chen's hands.

He thought that it was impossible for Zhao Chen to know how the writing on the clothes would appear.

"What's wrong? What happened so late at night?"

"Noisy, what does it look like?"

"The scholars have been tired all day, why don't you let them rest at night?"

"If the true level cannot be answered tomorrow, who can take the responsibility?"

Master Liu's roar made everyone wake up.

Yu Shinan and others also came over.

Everyone looked at Zhao Chen with confusion.

Mr. Liu glanced at the people behind him and saw them nodding towards him, and couldn't help but feel reassured.

"Master Yu, Deputy Chief Zhao did not rest at night during the exam. He insisted on saying that some scholars were cheating and that there was something wrong with the clothes." Master Liu looked at Yu Shinan and shouted with aggrieved face.
