Ji Xiaolan: Kill Qianlong at the beginning

Chapter 547 Adding Another Trouble to the Chaotic Situation

Zhao Qing continued, "I will make sure Gan Xiaoxu's name appears on the list of successful candidates in the imperial examination."

Mo Li said in a trembling voice, "This... how is this possible? Zhao Xinjin is right. Zhao Qing, do you know how much homework a candidate has? Even if someone studies hard for ten years, passing the imperial examination is still as difficult as climbing to heaven. How is this possible?"

Zhao Qing said, "Lord Mo, I have been compiling every piece of writing by Gan Xiaoxu over the years. Although I am not an expert in poetry, prose and essays, I am quite familiar with them."

Mo Li sighed and said, "Even if you can write the essay, it violates the laws of the court. That's called using a pseudonym, do you understand?"

Zhao Qing grasped his hand and said, "Lord Mo, I knew you would say that, which is why I came to see you beforehand."

Mo Li was somewhat taken aback and said, "This... what do you want with me?"

Zhao Qing said, "Lord Mo, Gan Xiaoxu and I are like brothers. In my heart, I have long regarded him as my second brother. Now I want to fulfill this wish for Gan Xiaoxu. I hope you will grant my request, Lord Mo."

Mo Li said seriously, "Zhao Qing, do you expect me to break the laws of the court and let you into the examination hall without permission?"

Zhao Qing said sadly, "Lord Mo, perhaps Gan Xiaoxu will recover after receiving the good news."

Mo Li shouted, "You're being ridiculous!"

Zhao Qing said, "I know it's absurd, but it's my only way out."

Mo Li said firmly, "Zhao Qing, I will not help you with this. I can order the local officials to investigate the situation that day. If it was indeed those people who did it on purpose, they should be punished accordingly. I can also find a good doctor to cure his illness."

He paused, then continued, "After Enko, there's a major competition every three years, and he can still..."

Zhao Qing said, "Three years, who knows if he can make it through those three years?"

Mo Li was somewhat speechless and said, "Then... then you're so sure that if you pass the exam for him, you can cure his illness?"

Zhao Qing said, "A thousand thoughts and ten thousand ideas all come down to a single thought. It's like the end of a thread; pulling one thread affects the whole body. If this trick still doesn't work, then I'll just have to accept my fate."

Mo Li said, "Zhao Qing, I cannot help you with this. There are those who can help and those who cannot. Those who can help are doing their best. Those who cannot help violate the principles of morality."

Zhao Qing knelt down and said, "Lord Mo, I kneel before you. If you are willing to help me with this, I am willing to be your slave, and I will be your slave in my next life as well."

Mo Li said, "Miss Zhao Qing, please stand up and listen to me. He Shen is already causing trouble in this imperial examination. I can't guard against him at all. Please don't interfere and add to the chaos, okay?"

Zhao Qing was very sad and said, "Lord Mo, you must be unwilling to help with this?"

Mo Li felt a pang of pity and turned away, not daring to look at her.

Zhao Xinjin, who was standing to the side, said, "Qingqing, how long are you going to keep fooling around? Come with me now." He pulled Zhao Qing and started to lead her outside.

Zhao Qing refused and remained kneeling on the ground.

Zhao Xinjin had no choice but to stare blankly at Mo Li.

Du Xiaoyue walked towards Mo Li and said, "Brother Li, Miss Zhao Qing is really too pitiful."

Mo Li said, "So what if I'm pitiful? Xiao Yue, do you really agree to me helping you with this kind of favor?"

Du Xiaoyue said calmly, "It's not too difficult to help with this. You've seen Gan Xiaoxu's essays; he's more than qualified even if he passes the imperial examination."
