Chapter 2137 Clarification

Kang hugged Xiao Huohuo for a while, and then asked about the origin of the rumor.

When Shu Yu said it was the boy he met outside the door yesterday evening, his expression was hard to describe.

"The Yibo Mansion is really getting worse and worse. A young boy doesn't know anything about the situation. He just goes back and talks nonsense without asking questions clearly. People in the Yibo Mansion still believe it?" The problem is that what happened yesterday The matter was spread in front of so many people today.

Shu Yu also thought it was ridiculous, but what made her even more incomprehensible was...

"You are celebrating the birthday of an old lady. Why would you mention us when you are so good? Ayun is a civil servant, and I am a local county magistrate. I have no connections with people in the capital."

Mr. Kang, "..." How do you say this?

She glanced at Meng Yuncheng, who had just listened with interest. After receiving her gaze, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What?"

"It's nothing. It's just that although you are now a judge, you are quite famous. When we are not chatting, are you talking about it?"

Kang didn't lie, but he only told half of the story.

It is true that Meng Yunzheng is famous, but the most important reason is the young lady from the Hou family who once wanted to marry Meng Yunzheng. Back then, this girl took a fancy to Meng Yuncheng's face and didn't mind that he was "stupid" or his wife's identity. As a result, Meng Yuncheng was "harmed" by the palace lady and became mute. From then on, he left the capital to seek medical treatment everywhere.

Later, the young lady from the Hou Mansion got married, but many people knew about it.

Today, when celebrating her birthday at the Wu family, someone who was at odds with this young lady deliberately mentioned Meng Yunzheng in order to disgust her. Unexpectedly, the girl from Yibo Mansion would jump out and say that Meng Yuncheng had a fiancée, and that the fiancée gave birth to a fat boy.

When Kang heard it, he almost thought he was hallucinating.

Now she breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Shu Yu's explanation. She just said, Ayu is not the kind of person who is out of tune, how could he have a child out of wedlock?

It was indeed an own goal.

She said to Shu Yu, "Don't worry, I will help clarify this matter."

"Thank you very much, sister-in-law." Shu Yu was worried that this matter would have an impact on Meng Yunzheng's exam in the next few days.

Unexpectedly, her worries were not exaggerated at all. Early the next morning, a censor impeached Meng Yunzheng, saying that Xie Yuan of the Changjin Mansion had failed in his virtue and had a child with Wen'an County Lord before they got married, which was a disgrace to his reputation as a scholar.

Especially since Meng Yunzheng is now Jieyuan, he is very likely to pass the Jinshi examination. If such a person enters the court and becomes an official, the world will laugh at him. Balabala said a lot, and the central idea was to cancel his qualifications for reference.

Fortunately, this was brought up by the censor in front of all the civil and military officials when he went to court.

The emperor on the dragon throne was speechless. Yao Tianqin learned the truth from his daughter-in-law early and clarified it to Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu on the spot.

The emperor was very angry and said that although the censor had the power to supervise the impeachment, he rashly made nonsense without investigating the matter clearly, which was an abuse of power. If no one clarified, everyone believed his rumors and really disqualified Meng Yunzheng from taking the exam, it would have harmed his life and also caused the court to lose a pillar of talent.

The censor failed to impeach but was reprimanded and finally fined. He was so angry that he directly brought down the Yibo Mansion, the source of the rumors.

Well, both the censor and Yibo Mansion were disappointed.
