Full level Black Heart Lotus, reborn to bully scumbags every day! - Chapter 808 If you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later

But he was still extremely alert when he looked at the other candidates around him who were also taking the palace examination. The incident happened suddenly, and until now, he still hadn't figured out why those people wanted to kill him.

Could it be that he was getting in someone's way?

Shen Jing'an was paranoid. He never imagined that he had hoped to get rid of Shen Shuyi with the help of the Eighth Prince and Concubine Jing, but in the end he became their target.

"Brother Shen, how are your preparations? Are you confident today?"

Shen Jing'an was startled and turned around hurriedly. When he saw that it was someone he knew, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Why are you so scared? Your hair is too messy. Aren't you afraid of losing your manners in front of the palace?"

The other party was obviously quite familiar with Shen Jingan, and looked him up and down.

Shen Jingan frowned and whispered, "Someone wants to kill me."

Shen Jingan lowered his voice: "Keep your voice down. I don't know who I offended. Anyway, I encountered two groups of assassins on the way here."

Fortunately, he was rescued by someone. Although he didn't know who saved him, Shen Jingan felt that it must be because he had done too many good deeds in his daily life.

"Then you have to stay calm. Maybe someone is afraid that your grades are too good and you will take his place..."

"How about this, when we go to the side hall, I'll take you to find a place to tidy up your appearance. Otherwise, I'm afraid His Majesty will frown when he sees you like this."

Soon, the candidates arrived at the side hall, where the palace maids and eunuchs prepared cakes and tea to prevent anyone from getting hungry due to the long time spent on answering the questions.

Li Xun gave some silver to a eunuch in charge and whispered, "Please help me, my colleague wants to find a place to tidy up his appearance."

The eunuch weighed the silver in his hand, looked around, and whispered, "Follow me."

Li Xun looked at Shen Jing'an and said, "Brother Shen, I won't go with you. Come back soon."

Shen Jing calmed herself down, followed the young eunuch and went to a room.

The young eunuch brought up some tea and whispered, "Time is short, sir, please hurry up."

"I will never forget your kindness, sir."

After the young eunuch left, Shen Jing'an immediately rearranged her hair in front of the bronze mirror. Seeing that there were still many wrinkles on her clothes, she repeatedly smoothed them out. After a long while, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the little eunuch in the dark saw that he did not touch the pot of tea and couldn't help shaking his head.

Just as Shen Jing'an opened the door, an unfamiliar guard suddenly rushed in, pushed Shen Jing'an back into the room, and then covered Shen Jing'an's mouth with his big hands, trying to break his neck.

Shen Jing'an's face was horrified, and a strong feeling of suffocation and fear spread.

Why...why does someone in the palace want to kill him!

His arm felt pain, so he immediately let go of the force. But he was afraid of being discovered, so he didn't care about anything else and disappeared quickly.

Shen Jingan staggered a few steps, holding his chest and gasping for breath.

I really don't know what bad luck he has today. Why do people who want to kill him keep coming one after another?

Fortunately... Fortunately, there is always someone to save him.

But right now his mind was in a mess and he couldn't sort out his thoughts at all.

He left the room in a hurry, constantly comforting himself: "Those who survive a great disaster will surely have good fortune in the future, those who survive a great disaster will surely have good fortune in the future!"

He hurried back to the side hall where the candidates were resting and dared not leave them again.

Tong Guan secretly watched his actions and whispered, "Have you checked the tea and snacks delivered to him?"

"Well done. Remember not to take it lightly." Tong Guan spoke in a deep voice, his eyes still on Shen Jingan not far away.

"Yes."

"When you enter the main hall, you must also keep a close eye on it. There are so many people here, and it's hard to guarantee that someone won't take advantage of the chaos to commit a crime. Also, check the writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone used by Shen Jingan carefully."

"Yes."

At this moment, Emperor Qianwu was still in the imperial study. Li Yun was on duty today. Seeing Taifu Wang rushing over, Emperor Qianwu waved his hand and asked all the eunuchs and palace maids, including Li Yun, to leave.

"Your Majesty, these are the essays recently written by my student, Master Mingde, also known as Shen Shuhan."

Wang Taifu presented a thick stack of answer sheets. Emperor Qianwu flipped through them one by one and nodded slightly: "Not bad."

Some of the questions did hit upon the topics he was planning to test today.

After that, Wang Taifu took out a few old test papers from his sleeves and said, "Your Majesty, these are the poems that Shu Han wrote several years ago, but in recent years, they have become a tool for Shen Jingan to gain fame and fortune. This person killed his brothers and sisters to steal his fame, which shows how sinister he is."

"Taifu, rest assured. If this is true, I will definitely give Shen Shuhan justice."

Emperor Qianwu gave his answer, and his eyes fell on Wang Taifu, and he asked again: "Taifu, do you have any idea about the leak of the exam questions?"

Wang Taifu hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I have heard from Shu Han and Princess Mingzhu that this matter seems to involve Jinglou, the largest pawnshop in the capital."

Wang Taifu nodded: "Yes, but I dare not speak rashly about the specific matters. Your Majesty may wait until Shen Jingan is in trouble and interrogate him strictly. Maybe you can learn the truth from him."

Emperor Qianwu waved his hand and said, "Back off."

After Wang Taifu left, Emperor Qianwu sent someone to call Tong Guan: "Tong Guan, this is my token. I give you the greatest power. You must find out all the information related to Jinglou in the shortest possible time!"

Tong Guan took the token and said, "I obey your command!"

After Tong Guan left, the smile on Wang Xi's face faded.

"It's really... I don't know what kind of luck he has that he can become so successful." Wang Xi sighed, shaking his head and looking at Tong Guan's back.

His Majesty has always regarded him and Li Yun as the most respected people around him. But recently, a man named Tong Guan has emerged, and the degree to which his Majesty values ​​him seems to have surpassed him and Li Yun. It is really enviable.

After a while, Wang Xi reacted and called a young eunuch to whisper, "Find a chance to send a message to Concubine Jing, saying that His Majesty may have already sent someone to investigate."
