Chapter 566: When the Qin Dynasty Fell

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

It was very likely that her cousin had not touched Ning Yuanbo previously because he was waiting for this opportunity.

Thinking of how important King You’s case was, Yu Youyao’s heart turned cold. She realized that it was time for her cousin to subvert the court. Yu Youyao had mixed feelings.

In order to gain the emperor’s trust, he did not hesitate to destroy the old books of his ancestors and burn the ancestral code. He ignored the rumors of the world and only wanted the King of Dongning to reveal his true colors.

He did not hesitate to send his heir into the capital to be a hostage. His ambition was obvious.

There was also the King of the West who did not reveal his true strength.

Which of them didn’t have ulterior motives?

In the Biography of the Marquis of Huaiyin, there was a quote that said, “When the Qin dynasty fell, all the heroes in the world wanted to conquer it.”

The Great Zhou Dynasty had lost the hearts of the people. All the heroes competed to conquer it. Naturally, there were treason and rebellions and there will be losers and winners.

These people were willing to risk it all.

After two years, Yu Youyao had figured out many things. Back then, at the Precious Peace Temple, she had accidentally seen through her cousin’s tracks and had already made her choice.

Since she had made her choice, there was nothing to escape.

She only needed to do her own thing so that her cousin would have no worries. As for other matters, they were not something she, a woman from the inner residence, could interfere in.

Yu Youyao pouted. “Cousin schemes so much every day. He’s clearly still in a wheelchair. Why is he still so tall?”

She was not short, but when she thought about how Yu Jianjia, who was half a year younger than her and had always been sick, had caught up to her, she felt that she should actually grow faster.

Zhou Linghuai had an indescribable expression.

He had been training his muscles and bones since he was young and practicing martial arts, so he was much taller than ordinary people. Even though he later grew slower in a wheelchair, he was still a little taller than older people.

He was only 17 years old now, which was the age of growth. When his legs completely recovered, he should grow faster.

NO!

Why should he care about height?

Forget it, he seemed to have been led astray by the little girl again?!

At first, the little girl had been very worried that he wouldn’t grow tall in a wheelchair. She had even specially spent some effort to find out about a medicinal rooster recipe that would help grow taller.

Yu Youyao seemed to be possessed. She burned, stewed, roasted, steamed…

In short, she used all kinds of methods.

Zhou Linghuai had never been an emotional person. Even when he schemed against someone, he did not even blink. When he rejected someone, he naturally did not feel any psychological burden.

Only in front of Yu Youyao, he seemed to be possessed!

As long as she looked at him innocently and blinked, he wished he could pluck the stars in the sky and give them to her. How could he bear to let her down?

It was obvious that she was the one suffering.

Yu Youyao tortured him for a full three months until his nose bled. Only then did her “crazy” actions completely stop.

For a long time, he would be conflicted about whether he would really grow taller. When his legs recovered, he would stand side by side with the little girl…

It was very awkward!

Fortunately, the problem he was worried about did not exist.

The next day, Yu Youyao arrived at An Shou Hall early in the morning.

Something big had happened in the court, and even the family had been implicated. Old Madam Yu did not sleep well the entire night. Early in the morning, she called Yu Zongzheng over for questioning.

Yu Zongzheng said, “I’m not in the Imperial Court now, so it’s not appropriate for me to interfere in this matter. It’s better to wait and see first.”

Old Madam Yu had the same intention. However, “The fraud in the examination is very important. You can’t make a mistake now that you’re in the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs. It’s just that our family and the Zhenguo Marquis Residence are family friends. Heir Song is involved in the fraud case, so our family can’t watch coldly.”

Yu Zongzheng frowned and could only say, “How about this? After leaving the government office today, I’ll ask my colleagues who used to have a good relationship with the Imperial Court for some information. The imperial examination fraud involves the rules of the Imperial Court. No matter what, this matter can’t be avoided by the Imperial Court. If there’s any news, the

Imperial Court will know best.”

This was how family ties were. They couldn’t be careless when they could help.

Old Madam Yu nodded. “That’s it for now. No matter if it’s good or bad, it’s better to have news than no news.”

Yu Zongzheng hurriedly went to the government office.

In the past two years, the court had not been peaceful either. There was endless trouble in the government office. After he was transferred to the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs, there was no time to be idle.

Old Madam Yu held her granddaughter’s hand and sighed slightly. “Women and children from the inner residence can’t get involved in such matters. Just wait in the house to hear the news!”

Yu Youyao nodded and asked Nanny Liu to prepare dinner.

Old Madam Yu was thinking about something, and her appetite was not good. Yu Youyao persuaded her from the side. After all, she had a bowl of porridge and some soup, so she couldn’t eat anymore.

Yu Youyao was not affected. She ate and drank as she should.

‘Go in—” The servant pushed Song Mingzhao, who was covered in blood, into the prison.

With a clang, he locked the prison door and glanced at Song Huiyuan, who was crawling on the ground like a dead dog. He spat a mouthful of thick yellow and white phlegm out and said angrily, “Pfft, what bullsh*t three exams? He’s the best pick for the top scholar today. Yet, he’s involved in cheating in the examination, and he still wants to escape unscathed? Hmph, no way!’

With that, he left arrogantly.

Song Mingzhao had just experienced a flogging and was a little dazed. “I-I didn’t cheat…

He had passed the Huiyuan examination and the examiner who had leaked the question this time was Scholar Huang of the Hanlin Academy. Even the Tang Residence of the Hanlin Academy’s Chancellor was implicated.

The Zhenguo Marquis Residence had some relationship with the Tang Residence, so he became the focus of interrogation.

After being in prison for three days, he had already experienced two rounds of torture.

Song Mingzhao refused to confess, and the officials in charge of the trial punished him severely.

Song Mingzhao was not a fool. He acutely sensed that the officials in charge of his trial seemed to be hostile to him and were deliberately punishing him severely.

Not to mention his status as the heir of the Marquis of Zhenguo. As long as there was no suspicion that he had cheated) ordinary officials would not make things too difficult for him.

In addition, he was also Mr. Xian Yun’s disciple. He was extremely talented to begin with. Even if he was implicated and sent to jail, others would think twice.

He was part of the first batch to have his examination papers reviewed by the Imperial Court. The interactions between people during the examination were also investigated. It would take at most two to three days. It was more or less clear if he had cheated, so they wouldn’t use heavy punishment on him.

However, the other party had done it too obscurely, so he couldn’t catch him red-handed.

Song Mingzhao forced his injured body to stand up and staggered. After barely taking a few steps, he fell to the ground and leaned against the wall.

The wall was wet and cold. As soon as he leaned against it, a chill rushed into his bones, making him shiver and feel a chill from the bottom of his heart.

The prison was very dirty and had a rotten smell.

At night, there were even dung beetles and rats crawling around.

He also ate rotten food every day.

It was even difficult to get a sip of water..
