The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

At this point, Mo Qingze paused, looked at the three people with flickering expressions, and continued: "To show justice, the students beg for mercy and compete openly in the hall."

As soon as these words came out, the whole room was shocked. No one expected that Mo Qingze would make such a request. As the three witnesses said, each examiner has different tastes and different views on articles. There is actually a certain amount of luck involved in being successful in the examination.

Now Mo Qingze wants to compete with three people in the palace. Although he can get rid of the suspicion if he wins the competition, after all, he has absolute power. Who would take the risk of ruining his future and cheat, but it is very difficult to win. Unless he has the strength to crush three people.

The eight presiding judges looked at Emperor Hui'an in unison. Competition in the palace was troublesome, but it was indeed the best way to clear away suspicion. Most people don't have the guts to bring it up, but this Mo Qingze is surprisingly tight.

Emperor Hui'an looked at Mo Qingze, who had a determined look on his face, with a flash of appreciation in his eyes, but he did not respond immediately. If he wins, he will become famous all over the world. If he loses... his prince will be implicated!

Seemingly seeing the reason for Emperor Hui'an's hesitation, Chu Heng stood up and said respectfully: "Father, I agree to compete in the palace."

Everyone did not expect that the prince would be the first to stand up and agree with the palace competition. They all guessed that the reason why he agreed was to use some method to clear away his own suspicions, but the risk was actually higher.

"My son seconded the proposal!"

"My son seconded the proposal!"

"My son seconded the proposal!"

"..."

Upon seeing this, the princes and princes couldn't wait to stand up and second their opinions.

No matter what the outcome is, it will not have any impact on these princes and princes; on the contrary, if they lose, there is a chance to unseat the prince. They were happy to facilitate this kind of trouble for the prince, and they were not optimistic about Mo Qingze and did not think he could win the competition when one against three.

When the ministers who were still waiting and watching saw this, they also reconsidered and agreed with the comparison.

Emperor Hui'an knew that his prince was not an arbitrary person and would never do anything detrimental to him. Having made a judgment in his mind, he said to the eight presiding judges: "Yes!"

As soon as the word "accurate" came out, almost everyone's eyes fell on Mo Qingze in the center of the hall. Only the three witnesses turned pale and seemed to be frightened.

The faces of Prince Heng and Mr. Lin were equally ugly. They thought that with both witnesses and material evidence, they could bring down Mo Qingze and drag Chu Heng into the water. Unexpectedly, Mo Qingze came up with this trick. Even if the chance of winning was very small, he still couldn't win. It’s not like there’s no chance of winning.

What's even more frightening is that if Mo Qingze wins, if the three people are held accountable for false accusations, they may be implicated.

No matter how unwilling the grandparents were, they could not change Emperor Hui'an's mind. They could only curse in their hearts that Mo Qingze had better lose and end up with the whole family destroyed.

This palace competition is not just a competition. It must be almost the same as Qiu Wei's test questions in order to ensure fairness and justice to the greatest extent. Naturally, it is not as simple as randomly setting a few questions and letting a few people compete with each other to answer them.

In view of the fact that it takes time to formulate the question, the palace competition also takes time. In the end, Emperor Hui'an set the time for the palace competition to be the day after tomorrow. An "accident" inevitably occurred, and Mo Qingze and the three witnesses were taken away by the Criminal Department.

…

"Yan'er, Uncle Mo is not a reckless person. Since he proposed the palace competition, he has full confidence. You should believe him! Moreover, even if Uncle Mo really loses to the three people who relied on fraud to pass the examination, we still have a way to prove it. You can rest assured that Uncle Mo is innocent!"

Outside the palace gate, Xiao Ruiyuan softly comforted the worried Mo Yan, not wanting to see her unhappy.
