Chapter 406: Catching a Beauty Under the List

In a hurry, Wen Yan held his face and looked him straight in the eye: "Ying Zhilin, it's my fault!

If you forgive me this time, I will trust you from now on, okay?"

Ying Zhilin blinked: "Really? Will you trust me from now on?"

The tears slid onto his eyelashes, making him look even more wet and painful.

"Yes, I will believe you from now on." Wen Yan wanted to give him a hug on the spot and lift him up to comfort him.

She reached out and wiped away the tears.

Ying Zhilin's long eyelashes trembled and he burst into laughter: "You believe in me, and I believe in you." He took the opportunity to hold Wen Yan's hand.

Wen Yan's hands are small and soft, and holding them in her palm feels like holding a cloud.

Wen Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just hold hands, but don't provoke her by looking tearful.

The two of them had only exchanged a few words when people kept looking at them.

To be precise, they were all women, and they were all looking at Ying Zhilin.

Wen Yan didn't like being stared at and frowned slightly: "If I had known earlier, I should have come here by carriage."

At least now I can stay in the carriage and not be stared at nakedly like this.

Ying Zhilin noticed her emotions and immediately moved to stand in front of her, blocking her sight.

He looked back at those people one by one.

His eyes were calm and emotionless, and he looked at people as if they were objects.

Those who were secretly glancing at him turned their eyes away in embarrassment.

"Zhilin, here." A voice suddenly came from above.

Ying Zhilin looked up and saw someone leaning half of his body out of the second-floor window, waving at them.

"Senior Brother Gu Dun!" Ying Zhilin waved at them.

"Junior brother, bring your younger siblings upstairs to sit down." It was too crowded downstairs, so Ying Zhilin pulled Wen Yan upstairs.

Imperial Palace.

Qinzheng Hall.

"Let's arrange the top ten like this." The emperor wrote the word "approved" on the memorial with a red pen.

"Yes. I will go down and post the list right away." The Minister of Rites took the memorial and quickly left the Qinzheng Hall.

The Palace Guards and the Imperial Guards immediately escorted him out of the palace and to the Imperial Examination Hall.

At this time.

A young eunuch outside the hall quietly retreated, turned into a small path, and ran all the way.

At a rockery, he whispered something to Concubine Lan's daughter, the fifth princess Ji Xiangyun.

"That's great!" Ji Xiangyun looked delighted and immediately turned around and ran towards Concubine Yun's palace.

"Mother! Mother!" Ji Xiangyun shouted excitedly as soon as she entered the room, "Mother, he passed. Please help me find a son-in-law from the list."

Lan Fei stood up suddenly: "Really?"

“More real than real gold, this is the news that just came out of the Qinzheng Palace.

Moreover, he is not an ordinary Jinshi, he is also…” Ji Xiangyun leaned over and whispered something in her ear.

Concubine Lan was delighted and lovingly helped Ji Xiangyun to tidy up her messy hair. "Xiangyun, don't worry. As long as it's something you like, your mother will definitely let you have it."

She swung her sleeves and said, "Let's go, leave the palace! I want to find a husband for my daughter myself."

Soon, there was a commotion outside the Imperial Examination Hall.

Then people cheered, "The door is open! The list is out."

Wen Yan peeked out the window.

Then a group of imperial guards wearing armor and holding swords, escorting two civil servants in red, walked out of the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall.

A group of people came to the notice board and quickly posted the notices one by one.

The list is posted from back to front.

Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted excitedly, "It's me! I'm the last one!"

I finally passed the exam!

Hahahaha, I’m finally a Jinshi!"

"I got it too..."

People who made the list made it one after another.

Ying Zhilin is still calm and composed. How come he doesn't care about his ranking at all?

Are you pretending to be calm to hide your anxiety?

Wen Yan held Ying Zhilin's hand tightly: "Don't be afraid, I will always be your backer."

Ying Zhilin Hui held her hand: "I believe you."

Soon, the last list was posted.

The students rushed forward, eager to confirm whether they were on the list.

From time to time, loud cries could be heard in front of the notice board, and from time to time loud laughter could be heard from inside, just like the various aspects of life.

Wen Yan took Ying Zhilin's hand and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Ying Zhilin said, "There are too many people over there. Be careful not to squeeze you. Let me go with my brothers. You just wait here for me."

Wen Yan thought about it and nodded in agreement: "Be careful not to get trampled or bumped by others."

"I understand, ma'am." Ying Zhilin shook her hand before getting up and leaving.

Lu Tanzhang hugged his shoulders and shuddered: "Eh... so corny!"

soon.

Ying Zhilin and his group squeezed to the front of the list.

Most students will start from the last place and move forward.

Ying Zhilin and his fellow brothers did the exact opposite.

They start directly from the first place.

Lu Tanzhang said excitedly: "Junior brother, you got it, you really got it."

Senior Brother Gu Dun said helplessly: "Isn't it natural for Junior Brother to be included?"

Lu Tanzhang said, "He's first place! Ying Zhilin, my junior brother is the champion."

"Isn't this as it should be? Don't forget how he abused us in the academy before?"

Lu Tanzhang thought about the past and a pained expression appeared on his face. "I am superficial. Junior brother is the most powerful one. No one can compare to him."

At Wutong Academy, none of the students who came to take part in the imperial examination failed, and all of them became Jinshi.

Everyone is very happy.

The students around them looked at them with envy.

Many people came to congratulate and make friends.

After exchanging greetings, they agreed to meet again another day. Ying Zhilin and his senior brothers squeezed out of the crowd.

Ying Zhilin couldn't wait to tell Wen Yan the good news.

Suddenly, a group of people pushed and shoved their way in.

Ying Zhilin and his fellow brothers were quickly dispersed.

"Senior Brother..." Ying Zhilin shouted loudly.

"Junior Brother, let's meet at the restaurant."

"Okay." Ying Zhilin was pushed farther and farther away by the crowd.

At first Ying Zhilin thought it was just an accident.

But gradually, he found something wrong.

Just as he was about to change his route, he found himself surrounded by people and a hemp rope was dropped from his head.

Someone wants to kidnap him!

Catching a son-in-law from the list!

Ying Zhilin was shocked and realized that someone was targeting him and wanted to capture him and force him into marriage.

Ying Zhilin was very angry.

He belongs to Wen Yan, and he will be angry with anyone who dares to snatch him from Wen Yan!

The people around them made way and formed a circle to watch the first "Catching a Son-in-Law" drama of this year.

However, although Huiyuan is impressive, it is not as valuable as the new top three.

Whose daughter is this that is so impatient?

However, this champion was indeed beautiful.

No wonder some people would take the initiative!

It is known that Lin would never surrender.

He reacted quickly, ducking to avoid the rope while simultaneously delivering a powerful punch to the abdomen of the person next to him.

The man screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

The others rushed forward and cast a big net towards Ying Zhilin.

This net goes down.

Ying Zhilin had almost nowhere to hide.
