In the next few days, the Su family spent a huge amount of money to repair the ancestral tomb!
Since then, the originally muddleheaded Su Yuwen has become well-behaved, and the lustful Su Yuhao has become calm and steady! He no longer lingers in the flower bush!
Even Su Xiaoxiao herself is getting prettier day by day. Not only is she loved by the young men of wealthy families, but she also receives kickbacks from the several businesses she invested in!
Inside the palace!
Upon learning that Yan Jiaojiao had returned to Beijing, Emperor Deyuan asked her to choose a day to attend court!
Yan Jiaojiao, who originally wanted to be lazy, did not retreat this time, because the emperor issued an imperial decree, and this time... she couldn't escape even if she wanted to!
The next day! In the court!
Yan Jiaojiao, who hadn't attended court for a long time, felt a little uncomfortable!
Looking around, she found that there were new officials in the hall! Many of them were unfamiliar to her!
[System, who are those three handsome young men around? They are quite handsome!]
[It is a good thing to have a handsome man to see when attending court! ]
Everyone: So Princess Xile likes to look at handsome men, how strange!
Emperor Deyuan: Minister Yan, did you know that your daughter likes to look at handsome men?
Yan Shian wiped the sweat from his forehead: It's so embarrassing, I can't face it anymore!
System: [Spring goes and autumn comes. Not long ago, the imperial examination was held. During that period, the host did not attend the court. The ministers and the emperor have already selected this year's top three and second place! ]
Yan Jiaojiao touched her chin, looking as if she had realized something belatedly!
[So they are high school students! No wonder I have never seen them before! They are so rare, they are all handsome and impressive! ]
System: [Today is the first time for three imperial examination students to attend court, and it is also the time to be rewarded! ]
[So the official position hasn't been assigned yet? 】
System: [That’s right, I wonder how the old emperor will arrange it! ]
[Let’s listen to the old emperor’s opinion! ] Yan Jiaojiao turned her head and continued to look at the three students in the middle of the hall!
At first glance, it always feels weird...
[System, is the man in the middle wearing a brocade hat and red brocade clothes the top scholar? ]
System: [Host is really good at judging people. This person is called Sun Jinzhou, and he is the top scorer in this year’s imperial examination. However...]
【Just what?】Is it really as she saw?
Everyone: This top scholar is not only talented in writing, but also handsome, right? He instantly fascinated you?
Emperor Deyuan: Now that Jiaojiao is here, things will be easy. He is still thinking about what position would be best for the number one scholar. It won’t be too late to make a decision after hearing her opinion first!
Unfortunately, the system’s response was not what everyone wanted!
System: [It’s just that Sun Jinzhou got the top spot by cheating! ]
Everyone was shocked: Cheating? How is that possible? Didn't they say that Sun Zhuangyuan came from a poor family? How could this be cheating?
Besides, the examination room is very strict, so how can one cheat?
Emperor Deyuan: Cheating in the Imperial Examination? How dare Sun Jinzhou?
[This fairy said, Sun Jinzhou is handsome, but his face doesn't look like a top scholar, how can he be the top scholar of the dynasty? On the contrary, the third scholar next to him has the appearance of a well-deserved top scholar!] She just treated the third scholar as the top scholar!
Later, I felt something was wrong with the clothes! That’s when I started to question it!
[It’s obvious that Sun Jinzhou is the son of an official, and he got in through connections! ] Yan Jiaojiao was very sure!
Everyone: A descendant of an official? A relative?
If he was the son of an official, how could they not know?
All the powerful officials in the court, big and small, and their descendants... know a thing or two about each other!
If this Sun Jinzhou is the son of an official, they have indeed never seen him. This is mysterious!
System: [Sun Jinzhou is the godson of the Grand Commandant, so he does have connections with the Grand Commandant, but the relationships are complicated and not as simple as they appear!]
Yan Jiaojiao agreed: [There is something fishy here! This old Taiwei doesn't look good, but he plays around a lot! ]
Everyone looked at the captain of the first team with amazement in their eyes!
When did the general recognize him as his godson? Why haven't I heard of it?
[This fairy doesn't look like a simple godson.] Yan Jiaojiao looked at the Grand Commandant He Shouye, and then at Sun Jinzhou.
System: [Host, Sun Jinzhou not only got the top scorer through connections, but he is also not suitable for being an official! The twists and turns are even more complicated, and it is hard to explain in a short time? ]
[Good-looking skins are all the same, but interesting souls are rare. Sun Jinzhou is good-looking, but he is not suitable to be an official. If he were an official, the people would suffer.] It's useless to be so handsome.
Emperor Deyuan was slightly stunned: He was still thinking about conferring a title on Sun Jinzhou, but now it seems unnecessary.
For a moment, the officials in the hall looked at Sun Jinzhou with strange eyes.
If at first it was admiration, now it is contempt.
Everyone: Your Majesty, please keep your eyes open and don't let the cheaters take advantage of you.
[I wonder how the old emperor will arrange it. It's really curious! ]
System: [I hope the old emperor can see clearly, this Sun Jinzhou is not just a godson! ]
Yan Jiaojiao: The secret is too deep, we have to dig it out layer by layer.
Everyone was amazed again: Is there any unknown secret?
[This Sun Jinzhou and He Shouwu look so much alike, they could be carved out of the same stone! ]
System: [Host, the general's name is He Shouye, not He Shouwu. ]
Yan Jiaojiao rolled her eyes: [They all mean the same thing! ]
System: Is that the same thing? Don’t think that I am a pig and don’t understand.
The officials looked at the back of He Shouye's head and whispered in their hearts!
This General He was renamed He Shouwu by the princess. Did he hear about this?
Feeling everyone's gaze, He Shouye turned around and said righteously: "This year's top scholar is well-deserved. Do you have any objections?"
[I have an opinion, of course I have an opinion! What does it mean to bring your godson to the court? ]
System: [As the Grand Commandant, He Shouye knew the exam questions long ago and had already given them to Sun Jinzhou in private! Sun Jinzhou was now fully prepared and the top spot was within his grasp.]
Everyone: So that’s how it is. He Shouye is not worthy of being the Grand Marshal!
"Mr. Sun is extremely talented. As the dean of the Royal Academy, can I test Mr. Sun?"
The old man who was speaking was Nangong Jin, who was promoted to dean two days ago!
Everyone: Dean Nangong is knowledgeable and talented, it’s perfect for him to set the questions!
Hearing Nangong Jin's voice, Yan Jiaojiao turned around and looked. At first glance, she felt that it was very familiar!
[Is this the dean of the Royal Academy? Why does he look so familiar? ]
Nangong Jin frowned: What does the princess want to say? He is not familiar with her!
System: [Host, this is Nangong Jin! Don’t you remember? ]
【Nangong Jin? 】 Yan Jiaojiao began to think!
I quickly came to the conclusion: [It's this old man! No wonder, I have to say... He is a little older now. Judging from his physique and appearance, he was also a handsome man when he was young. No wonder he was so obsessed with the girl in green.]
Nangong Jin was stunned: How does she know Qingyi?
Everyone: Who is the girl in green? As soon as you hear the name, you know it is a young girl!
Dean Nangong went to play with the little girl? When did it happen?
Everyone was eating melons together, and couldn't help but want to know what the next topic was...
