The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

"I am just a small person, not as noble as the Marquis of Zhao County, but..."

"Little Juren, you know that you are just a little Juren, yet you dare to talk to me like this, Lao Cheng, Xiao Qin, give me a beating!" Before Zhang Ju finished speaking, he saw Zhao Chen's expression change, Give him a cold scolding.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu behind him were stunned for a moment.

This is not the streets of Chang'an, beating up those who have complained about injustice in front of the emperor.

Isn't this not good.

But the two of them didn't care about that much anymore, and after a slight hesitation, they saw Cheng Chumo rounding up his palm and slapping Zhang Ju in the face.

"Snapped--"

A hard slap made Zhang Ju lie down on the main hall.

Zhang Ju didn't even hum, he was completely stunned.

At the same time, everyone in the palace was stunned.

No one would have thought that Zhao Chen would suddenly have Zhang Ju beaten in front of the emperor and officials.

Zhang Ju was the one who sounded the drum of grievance. Now he was beaten. What does this mean?

This is too outrageous.

Looking at the few teeth that were knocked out on the ground, everyone swallowed hard.

Li Shimin just saw Cheng Chumo's slap was rounded, and the word "stop" was already on his lips.

But he didn't shout out.

He also wanted to deal with these brainless scholars severely.

"Marquis of Zhao County, stop it. How can I allow you to be so presumptuous in the Tai Chi Hall?" An official came to his senses and saw Zhang Ju being beaten and lying on the ground. He was furious.

Zhang Ju was the spearhead they used to attack Zhao Chen, but Cheng Chumo slapped the spearhead down.

How did they get rid of Zhao Chen?

"Who do you think you are? You dare to accuse me?" Zhao Chen glanced at the official who was speaking and said jokingly.

The county marquis is a third-grade noble, and the official who spoke is only a fifth-grade knight. He is really not qualified to be like Zhao Chen.

say.

When Zhao Chen choked him, the official who just spoke had a ferocious expression on his face, but he did not dare to speak any more.

Who knows if Zhao Chen, a lunatic, would let the other two lunatics slap him with round hands.

"In front of His Majesty, I beat up the soldiers. The Marquis of Zhao County is indeed very majestic." Someone in the crowd said something strange.

"Zhao Chen, you are so brave, you dare to be so rude in the Tai Chi Hall."

"Your Majesty, Zhao Chen has acted so wantonly, how can we let him stay in this court again?"

"Your Majesty, please remove Zhao Chen from his title to restore your Majesty's reputation as a virtuous monarch."

All the officials were hurriedly chasing Zhao Chen, for fear of missing this opportunity to ruin Zhao Chen's reputation.

But obviously, they forgot one thing, that is, the emperor was originally with Zhao Chen.

How could he deal with Zhao Chen like this?

"Zhao Chen, Taiji Palace, please don't act recklessly. This is your first offense and I will not hold you accountable. I will never let you off lightly next time!" Li Shimin said slowly, with a smile on his face. Flash past.

Fang Xuanling and others watching on the side were twitching in face.

The emperor and Zhao Chen were singing in harmony to play with these officials of the aristocratic family.

However, if Zhao Chen cannot answer this question, then something will happen to Zhao Chen today.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Zhao County accidentally knocked Zhao Ju unconscious. Let's stop here for today. When Zhao Ju recovers, then..."

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I'm fine!" Fang Xuanling didn't want to see Zhao Chen being persecuted by the family, so she wanted to end the day quickly and let Zhao Chen go back and prepare again.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ju raised his hand at this moment,

Signaling that nothing is wrong.

Fang Xuanling frowned and couldn't speak any more.

"Since there is nothing to do, let's continue. Zhao Chen, Zhang Ju, on behalf of the scholars of Jinke, will take part in your examination... The test questions are too difficult, and they want you to answer them in person." Li Shimin said slowly.

When Li Shimin said that the test questions were too difficult, he felt that he could not speak out.

Are today’s scholars so shameless?

If you don't have the ability, why do you think this test question is too difficult?

"Your Majesty, there is no problem with this matter, but I want to know how many scholars think this way."

"Zhang Ju, did you bring along the list of scholars, or the petition?" Zhao Chen looked at Zhang Ju with a smile.

"What petition? This is a call on behalf of the broad masses of scholars to ask for advice from Deputy Chief Zhao." Zhang Ju's eyes were a little frightened and he did not dare to look at Zhao Chen.

He did not expect that Zhao Chen would dare to attack him in front of the emperor and officials. .??.??

This made Zhang Ju feel scared for the first time.

"There is no petition, so why do you represent the voice of the scholars? If everyone is like you and beats the drum of grievance at will, even if His Majesty is not bothered, I will not have time to waste with you, right?"

"Today, if you take out this petition, I will answer the test questions with you. Otherwise, I will let the two of them destroy you here today!" Zhao Chen lowered his body and said calmly to Zhang Ju.

The cold voice made Zhang Ju's heart tremble suddenly.

How could such a young man have such momentum?

"Zhang Ju, hand over the petition. I will send people to confirm the identities of these people, and Zhao Chen will also answer the imperial examination questions." Li Shimin said.

He also understood at this moment.

Zhao Chen asked for Zhang Ju's letter of petition because he wanted to see which scholars were causing trouble in Chang'an City.

Anyone who has anything to do with the aristocratic family can be arrested.

The aristocratic family can attack Zhao Chen, and they can naturally fight back against the aristocratic family.

Zhang Ju looked at the officials behind him, but no one looked at him.

The emperor's intention was obvious. Zhao Chen would not be able to answer the test questions without handing in the petition.

Their plan today was a complete failure.

But if the petition is handed over, the scholars the family has spent financial and material resources on will be in vain.

"Your Majesty, this is a petition from the scholars. Zhang Ju gave it to me before, but I just forgot about it. Please punish me." An official from a noble family came up and handed over a list of names.

The actions of the family officials made everyone a little stunned.

For the sake of Zhao Chen, the family is willing to be so cruel?

In fact, even the list of scholars was handed over.

Is it to conclude that Zhao Chen cannot answer the test questions he asked?

Li Shimin glanced at the list in his hand, then put it on the table, and his eyes fell on Zhao Chen again.

"Zhao Chen, I believe you." Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen and said slowly.

"Hmm." Zhao Chen gently waved his hand and responded.

…

"Is there any news from Taiji Palace?"

In the Li Zheng Palace, Queen Changsun and the young eunuch waiting on the side asked, looking vaguely anxious.

"Reporting to your Majesty, there is no news yet." The young eunuch shook his head.

"That kid Zhao Chen can definitely turn danger into good fortune. If there is really no other way, even if he loses his identity...then that's fine!" Queen Changsun seemed to be saying to herself.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Zhao County has promised to answer the test questions in the palace. It should have started at this moment." A young palace maid outside panted and shouted to the Changsun Queen.
