Hongzhou was very interested in this imperial examination. Knowing that Hongli had been summoned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation by his father, he insisted that Hongli secretly get him a copy of the examination paper.

"Fourth Brother, don't you want to know how well we'll do on the exam?" Hongzhou held onto Hongli's hand, pleading with him relentlessly.

"I already told you, Father Emperor didn't put me in charge of anything. He just told me to continue studying in the Imperial Study. I haven't even seen the exam papers. Where am I supposed to get one for you?" Hongli said helplessly. Although he was also very curious, there was nothing he could do.

“Right, Fourth Brother, let’s go ask Uncle Thirteen… He can definitely help us…” Hongzhou was only thinking about whether he could pass the exam, and he was eager to do the test paper. He pulled Hongli and rushed to the Thirteenth Prince’s mansion.

Upon hearing their purpose, the Thirteenth Prince shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, my elder brother said that the confidentiality of the exam papers must be guaranteed, and there must be no leaks whatsoever. Aren't you two trying to harm your Thirteenth Uncle?"

Hongli said to Hongzhou, "Let it go, don't make things difficult for Uncle Thirteen. He also has important responsibilities. Don't forget how much Father Emperor values ​​this exam. Let's not cause any more trouble..."

Hongzhou winked and persisted, "You know Father Emperor values ​​this exam, so we should give it our all and see if we can meet his requirements. We don't need to leak the questions beforehand; we just need to take the exam with the other candidates. We'll take it in the Imperial Study... Thirteenth Uncle, please have mercy! I tremble every time I see Father Emperor's stern face. If I know the answers, I'll be much more confident next time I see him."

Hongli glanced at him sideways: "What if you fail the exam?"

Hongzhou pushed him away and said disdainfully, "Pah, pah, pah, of course you'll hide if you fail the exam."

The Thirteenth Prince watched helplessly as the two princes bickered, and said with a smile, "I really want to help you, but all the questions on the exam papers were personally set by my elder brother. Besides, the exam papers have already been printed at the Imperial Printing Bureau, but they haven't been released yet. That means all the exam papers are still in my elder brother's hands, and nobody knows the questions on them... It would be faster for you to go and ask your father for them..."

Hongzhou shrank back, saying fearfully, "No, I won't go! I'm afraid Father will scold me about my studies. Thirteenth Uncle, please help us, I beg you..."

Hongli was also eager to test his abilities, so he was very curious about the exam paper.

He stared at the Thirteenth Prince expectantly, blinking his eyes. After being charmed by the two princes' coquettishness, the Thirteenth Prince had no choice but to agree: "Alright, alright, my two little darlings... How about this, when the exam begins, I will copy a copy of the exam paper for each of you and send it to the Imperial Study. You can wait there, and once you have the exam paper, do not spread it around. Just return it when you're done, okay?"

Hongzhou glanced at Hongli, then jumped up excitedly and hugged him tightly: "That's great, that's great..."

Thirteenth Prince watched the two teenagers' excited expressions with delight. Suddenly, Hongzhou turned around, hugged Thirteenth Prince, and kissed him hard on the cheek, exclaiming, "I knew Uncle Thirteen was the best! He's the most handsome and dashing prince in all of Beijing..."

Thirteen was stunned, covered his face, and chased after Hongzhou, yelling, "You brat, how dare you kiss my face like that?"
