"Brother Jiang, those students will definitely be very happy when they know you're going. You don't even know how many students admire you."
Tang Yi knew that Jiang Chuyuan attended the banquet because of him, and he was very grateful.
"I don't think I have as many admirers as Brother Tang."
Jiang Chuyuan became famous only because he passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer.
But Tang Yi is a real talent. He is not only good at studying, but also an expert in calligraphy and painting.
Even before he reached high school, he was already well-known in the Yuan Dynasty. He had many admirers.
Tang Yi nodded unceremoniously, "I won't be modest with Brother Jiang on this point. It's true that people recognize me wherever I go."
Sometimes he felt that he was gifted. Although he did not study as hard as others, the poems and articles he wrote were always outstanding.
In addition, his calligraphy and paintings are worth thousands of gold per piece, and he also believes that he deserves the title of a talented person.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with being more confident, but being too confident and conceited will inevitably lead to trouble.
Jiang Qingwan sighed slightly. Tang Yi didn't notice it, but Jiang Chuyuan noticed it keenly.
He quickly grabbed Jiang Qingwan's hand and indeed heard what she was thinking.
[Tang Yi is good in every way, but his fame at a young age has led him to be overconfident and conceited.]
Especially at today's banquet, he actually said that he would definitely be on the list, which caused a disaster.
Jiang Chuyuan felt a chill in his heart, and then he realized what Tang Yi had said wrongly.
Although with Tang Yi's talent, it is almost certain that he will be on the list.
But before the results are announced, no one can be absolutely sure that they will be admitted to high school.
His outspoken words would inevitably give those with ulterior motives a handle, not to mention that Prince Chen had already set up a plan to sue his uncle for fraud.
His words undoubtedly presented evidence to King Chen, saying that there was something fishy about this imperial examination.
Otherwise, how could Tang Yi be 100% sure that he would be admitted to high school?
He was originally wondering why Tang Yi was implicated in this imperial examination. Logically, it should have nothing to do with him.
It turned out that the trouble was caused by his mouth.
He shook his head helplessly. What Luo Luo said was true. He and Dingbei were so arrogant that something bad would happen sooner or later.
Thinking of this, he looked at Tang Yi and asked.
"Brother Tang, you said yesterday that you would be on the list. Why are you so confident?"
Tang Yi was stunned, not understanding why he suddenly brought up what happened yesterday.
But he still replied, "Brother Jiang, do you lack confidence in me?"
"It's not that I don't have confidence, but what you said is indeed wrong." Jiang Chuyuan straightened his face, "Actually, Luo Luo is right. You can't say this carelessly. If someone hears it, they will think that Brother Tang has some connections that allow him to be so confident."
"What connections? My talent is known to everyone."
Tang Yi didn't understand why he suddenly said that.
Seeing that he didn't understand, Jiang Chuyuan sighed, "Even if we know you're talented, no one can say for sure they'll get in before the results are announced. And those who know you, Brother Tang, will understand your confidence. But those who don't will inevitably use this as a pretext to bring you down."
"After all, the number of places is limited. If someone comes down, someone will naturally go in."
Understanding the meaning of his words, Tang Yi was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back.
"I spoke without thinking."
"It's fine to say this in front of our own people, but you must be careful in front of those students later."
Jiang Chuyuan continued to remind him, "You are students taking the exam together, friends, but in the exam room, you are competitors. You must remember this."
Tang Yi immediately nodded and said that he would be careful with his words and actions.
[As expected of the elder brother, he truly spoke the truth. This is where Tang Yi fell flat on his face.]
[However, he has had this temper since he was a child, and I don't know when he will change.]
Jiang Chuyuan frowned and lowered his eyes, thinking that he would give him and Jiang Dingbei a good lesson in the future.
Trouble comes from the mouth, and there is a reason for that.
By the time they arrived at Baixiang Tower, most of the students had already arrived.
Upon learning that they were coming, Yang Lin immediately came out to greet them.
"It's our honor that Master Xiao Jiang can come."
When they learned that it was Jiang Chuyuan, the top scorer of the previous session, many students immediately gathered around him.
"Hello, Master Xiao Jiang."
"Hello."
Most of the people here were from outside the city taking the exams, and Jiang Chuyuan hardly knew any of them. He just nodded politely.
"Master Xiao Jiang, Brother Tang, please come in."
Yang Lin arranged the two of them to sit in the frontmost position.
Since both of them were celebrities, they were soon surrounded by people.
Tang Yi, who had been reminded by Jiang Chuyuan in advance, became more cautious in his words.
When someone said he would definitely be on the list.
He just humbly replied, "I hope to accept your kind words."
Unable to get an answer from him, some people turned to Jiang Chuyuan.
"Master Xiao Jiang, do you think Brother Tang can pass the exam this time?"
Seeing the person who kept asking such questions, Jiang Chuyuan's eyes darkened slightly.
It was obvious that this person did it on purpose, just wanting to find loopholes in their conversations. It seemed that he came prepared.
"I believe everyone can see Brother Tang's talent."
After he said this, the man's eyes really lit up.
Others also echoed that this year's top scorer must be Tang Yi.
But Jiang Chuyuan changed the subject.
"However, whether or not one can pass the imperial examination is still uncertain. After all, the imperial examination tests not only one's talent, but also one's understanding of the examination questions."
"Besides, who among those present hasn't studied hard for ten years and is incredibly talented? So before the results are announced, it's hard to say who will be the top scorer."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone nodded repeatedly. Before the results were announced, who didn't have some fantasy about their own ranking?
Maybe that high school student is me.
Although they didn't say it, everyone thought their articles were well written.
"Master Xiao Jiang is right, but everyone has hope, but I have no hope?"
One of the fat middle-aged men shook his head and sighed.
"I've been taking exams for so many years, and this is the first time I've left a question blank."
It is a big taboo not to finish answering the test questions, and you will basically have no chance of getting into high school.
"Is the question you answered the last one posed by the Minister of Rites?" a bearded old man asked excitedly.
"That's the question. It's a very good one, but I'm not very knowledgeable and don't know how to answer it."
"Me too, I couldn't answer that question either." As he spoke, the old man's eyes became red.
When the two of them said this, everyone nodded, indicating that they had no answer.
They were all very ashamed for not being able to answer the questions. Therefore, after leaving the examination room, although they felt very sad, they did not dare to say it.
