I know, the imperial civil service examination is Ministry of Rites undertakes, you are Ministry of Rites vice minister, must help several people, isn't simple?” 男人淡淡道:“据我所知,科举是礼部承办,你是礼部侍郎,要帮几个人,还不简单？” Liu Qing shakes the head saying: „Risk was too big, cannot do, who knows that Cui Ming unexpectedly was also your undercovers, moreover did not expose carefully, now Royal Court checks is very tight, thinks that my appearance that the undercover checked, was the key suspect, every day had an audience with the emperor with trepidation, did you know

window, looks two children who are laughing and playing to create a disturbance in the courtyard, after the moment, takes back the line of sight, asked: „You did not fear that I do expose?” 刘青目光望向窗外,看着在院子里嬉笑打闹的两个孩童,片刻后才收回视线,问道:“你就不怕我暴露？” That person said lightly: „Cui Ming's status, is the accidental release, you and Cui Ming are different, you are my dark child, only then I know your status, so long as I did not say, no one knows.” 那人淡淡道:“崔明的身份,是意外泄露,你和崔明不一样,你是我的暗子,只有我知道你的身份,只要我不说,没有人知道。” The Liu Qing silent moment, said: „Good.” 刘青沉默片刻,说道:“好。” The men said: „List I will give you
