Time soon arrived in the afternoon. In the main hall, Rong Chuan could already treat the emperor as nothing. He had no choice but to let the emperor keep coming down for a walk. He walked around a lot. He cared about it from the beginning. It doesn’t matter now. It’s better to put all his thoughts aside. to the article.
The emperor especially liked to come down for a walk today. Those with good mental qualities gradually did not care about the emperor. Those with poor mental qualities were greatly affected.
This time is a test of my inner endurance, and the emperor is not aware of it at all.
The sweat on Shen Yang's back wetted his robe, and he told himself not to care, but he couldn't help but pay attention. The more he paid attention, the more he paid attention to it, the more likely he was to write an 80% score on a question that was supposed to be a sure shot, and he even had no handwriting. I usually write well.
Shi Qing has only one mentality, that is, no matter what happens, he cannot be distracted. This time is not only about his own life, but also about his future. It will be a turning point for his descendants. There can be no mistakes. , Shi Qing played extremely well today.
In the end, the emperor couldn't help but stood beside Rong Chuan. The more he looked at the child, the more satisfied he became. The entire article was not affected by him at all. After so many years, it was difficult for him to have a good impression of someone after just meeting him once. His first reaction to anything he saw was always to examine it.
The emperor raised his palms, this was abnormal, very abnormal, especially for him who had successfully rebelled and been in power for many years, so Zhang Rongchuan had to investigate carefully.
The emperor turned around and glanced at Zhou Changlian again. This guy was also pretty good. Even without Ning Xu, this kid could still excel with his own abilities.
In the queen's bedroom, the queen asked the female official, "What if it's over now?"
The female officer replied, "Yes."
The queen's fingertips touched the branch that had been broken a few days ago, and the buds had already opened. "There is no need to change the incense today."
The female officer said respectfully: "Yes."
The imperial examination was finally over, and the answer sheets on the desk were taken away. Some were confident, some were panicked, and some were relieved that it was finally over.
Everyone stood up and walked out of the hall one by one. The sky was already dark. The sky was good today and we could still see the sunset.
When you go out, you follow the location and there is no mess at all.
The emperor stood on a high place and watched everyone leave. He said to Eunuch Liu beside him, "Go to Lord Xuanning and enter the palace."
Eunuch Liu's heart was spinning, "Yes."
After leaving the palace gate, people they knew gathered together in twos and threes, and some people were not in a hurry to go back in the carriage.
Chang Lian and Rong Chuan stood together and saw Shi Qing waving his hand, "Shi Qing, here."
Shi Qing walked over quickly, "I was just looking for you."
Rong Chuan answered, "Brother Shi, let's go back to Zhou Mansion together."
Shi Qing didn't want to go back to his cold home. At this time, he also wanted to find someone to share with, "Okay."
The three of them gathered together and walked slowly towards the direction of the carriage. When they were far away from the palace gate, Rong Chuan whispered: "I almost lost my balance today."
Chang Lian's heart was also trembling, "Me too, standing next to me several times, my heart almost jumped out of my chest."
Rong Chuan felt that the emperor stood by his side the most times, and the time was particularly long. "I just want to go home, have a good meal, and then have a good sleep."
Shi Qing was a little better. He just wanted to put it to good use and said, "Look at the two of you, don't have nightmares at night."
Chang Lian was still frightened, "It's impossible to tell."
The three of them got into the carriage chatting and laughing. Snacks and honey water were already prepared on Zhou Mansion's carriage.
Chang Lian drank honey water and ate snacks, "My mother must have prepared this."
Rong Chuan also thought she was an aunt.
Shi Qing thought that it would be great to go back to the Zhou Mansion. He had to take a carriage back to his home, but no one had to worry about it for him.
Shen Yang got on the carriage, and the young man saw that the young master looked in a daze, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Yang still had sweat on his forehead, "I didn't perform well this time. The emperor kept wandering around me. I always felt that he was always paying attention to me. It's over. I don't know how Zhou Changlian performed. I hope he also performed abnormally like me."
The boy was silent, "Sir, you seem to be paying too much attention to the third son of the Zhou family."
Shen Yang, "I'm holding my breath. Last time Zhou Changlian mocked me in front of so many people, which made everyone in the inn refuse to pay attention to me. I must fight for this breath back."
Chang Lian had no idea that Shen Yang was still thinking about him. He was talking to Shi Qing and Rong Chuan about the article he had written.
Shi Qing said, gesticulating excitedly, "I quoted some advice from my father, and it helped me a lot this time."
Especially since Dad has mentioned more than once the importance of building roads.
Shi Qing was still envious in his heart. Zhou Changlian had a capable and good father who had an advantage over many people. Mr. Zhou must have given his son a lot of tricks.
Rong Chuan rolled his eyes, "I also quoted a few places, but I modified them slightly."
Chang Lian said: "Let's fight."
Rong Chuan told him what he needed, but Chang Lian was afraid to start, "Why didn't I think of it? I think your starting point is better."
Chang Lian sighed in his heart. His understanding was indeed not as good as Rong Chuan's. If he hadn't had a good father, a good master, and extra hard work, he wouldn't have achieved what he did today. This time, he really tried his best.
Rong Chuan said: "The third brother's writing is also very good. I didn't expect some of the things you mentioned."
Rong Chuan was not just trying to comfort him. He really thought that the third brother was good. Generally speaking, in the entire Zhou family, Chang Lian was the most attentive to reading. If he didn't understand something, he would try it a hundred times if he didn't understand it ten times. He really admired the third brother. Brother’s tenacity.
Shi Qing kept listening, and combined with what Chang Lian and Rong Chuan said, he knew a lot about himself, and his eyebrows lightened up a lot, "It seems that we are in good condition, and we look forward to good results."
Chang Lian clenched his fists, "After a hundred steps, all that's left is the final result. I hope we all have good results."
He just hopes that he is not a fellow Jinshi, and he does not expect to be a high-ranking scholar. He only hopes to enter the second class.
In the palace, Ning Xu was walking on the way to the Zhengdian Palace. He was conflicted in the past few days about whether to tell the emperor what he had discovered, but he later held back. It would be better for the emperor to see someone in person, and he also wanted to see it. Judging from the emperor's reaction, it turns out that the emperor is suspicious.
I just didn't expect that the emperor would announce him immediately.
Ning Xu arrived at the Zhengdian Palace and was about to salute when the emperor spoke, "No need to be polite. I came to you because I have something that I need you to investigate."
After hearing this, Ning Xu felt confident that the emperor had different feelings towards Rong Chuan. At this time, there was nothing to hide. He quickly knelt down and said, "I beg your pardon."
The emperor immediately realized that Ning Xu must have met Zhang Rongchuan and investigated it, "What did you find out? The last time you looked at the audition list, it was also because of Zhang Rongchuan, right?"
