He said to Zhao Qinglan behind the beaded curtain, "Is there something you don't want me to know""And you deliberately let him in! You know that behind this beaded curtain, no one but your husband is...Chapter 842 Hou Yushu Files a Complaint

He had no intention or plan to increase the time, and got up wanting to leave.

Time, everyone is the same.

The subject, the same as well.

Within an hour, even finishing writing is impossible, which clearly shows that the remaining examinees' abilities are insufficient to support their answering questions.

Since that's the case, there's nothing much to look forward to.

Only next year can we catch up early.

At that time, things might change, and Li Chen might give a simpler question.

And among those who remained unfinished, Hou Yushushu was prominently listed.

On the paper before him, there was barely half a page written.

Even with this little, he still managed to squeeze it out.

Seeing that the crown prince was about to leave, and his own path to the pinnacle of power had just begun, Hou Yushu was truly panicked.

He didn't want to just waste his time.

He can't wait for the next Civil Service Examination!

Thinking again of Su Jinpa's gaze at her, and the arrogant demeanor of that mysterious man who didn't even glance her way, Hou Yushou's eyes were red with anger.

Under the immense psychological pressure, Hou Yushu suddenly threw down the brush in his hand, stood up, and before the guards behind him could react, he shouted towards the crown prince who had just gotten up in the distance: "Your Highness! Candidate Hou Yushu has an important matter to report!"

The sudden change caught everyone's attention.

No one knows what kind of madness Hou Yushu went through.

Not even anyone else cares.

Two guards' faces changed, and they pressed down on Hou Yushu, about to drag him away.

Hou Yushu knew this was his last chance. He struggled desperately and roared, "Exam Candidate Hou Yushu has something to report regarding the unfaithfulness of the future Princess Consort Su Jinpa!"

The Crown Princess is unfaithful.

Even though Su Jinpa is not yet the Crown Princess, the fact that she will be is a foregone conclusion. In everyone's eyes, she is the future Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace.

And as for the Crown Princess's unfaithfulness, that would be a scandal of enormous proportions in any dynasty.

It is going to be a massacre.

Hou Yushu knew very well that saying this in Jinshui Bridge Square, facing all the candidates and civil and military officials, was almost like courting death. But he had no choice; he knew that if he didn't throw out a big bomb, the lofty Prince wouldn't even bother with him.

As expected, the figure clad in a scarlet dragon robe of a prince paused.

Amongst the assembled officials, Zhao Xuanji wore a smile, while in stark contrast to his amusement was Su Zhen's anger.

Zhao Xuanji didn't know where this Hou Yushu came from, but at this time, being able to cause trouble for the Crown Prince was a good thing.

Moreover, this could very well affect the cooperation between the Crown Prince and the Su family

If the two were to be separated, Zhao Xuanji would have to give Hou Yushou a big hug.

Li Chen's eyes, sharp as electricity, fell upon Hou Yushu in the distance. He spoke coldly, "Let him speak."

Two guards received the order and released Hou Yushu.

Hòu Yùshū was overjoyed. He rolled and scrambled to the front of Jinshuǐ Bridge, threw himself to the ground, not daring to raise his head, and blurted out like a pouring bean: "Your Highness, I've seen Su Jinping meet with a stranger several times. They were intimate, walking together. Especially yesterday, they rode in the same carriage and almost hugged each other!"

"Su Jinpa is about to marry into the East Palace as the Crown Princess, and the Crown Princess ranks only below the Empress. She represents the face of our empire. If a woman who disregards her role as a wife becomes the Crown Princess, wouldn't it shame our ancestors and bring disgrace upon the Great Qin Empire Please, Your Highness, order their execution!"he'd met someone so straightforward.In his high position, all he heard were flattering words. Even trusted confidants like Chen Tong and Xu Wei were intent on saying only pleasant things to him, let a...
