Jiang Qingluo was almost drowsy from watching this. "Isn't Ruan Hezhu here to compete? When will he start?"
[It turns out that my sister only came to join in the fun because she knew the heroine was coming to the competition. ]
Jiang Qingluo was so shocked and anxious that she forgot that she didn't know about Ruan Hezhu.
To cover up her guilty conscience, she added, "It seems the information we received was inaccurate. Ruan Hezhu is probably just here to join in the fun."
With a hint of teasing in mind, she said in annoyance, "Wanwan, are you bored too? Why don't we go back?"
Jiang Qingwan shook his head violently.
[No, the heroine's highlight moment must be at the end.]
[Also, the heroine's chess skills are average. If she were to leave now, she would be courting her own death.]
Jiang Qingluo couldn't understand why someone with average chess skills dared to come to the competition. The later it got, the better the contestants became. It was simply a pipe dream for her to win.
Unless she can break the endgame.
Suddenly Jiang Qingluo froze. He thought he would never really break the deadlock, even though it was impossible. But according to Wanwan, she was the heroine of this world, and nothing was impossible for her.
In the second half of the game, a man walked onto the stage.
"I am Tang Yi, from Liuzhou, Jiangnan, and I am here to challenge you."
[Tang Yi?]
Hearing the name, Jiang Qingwan quickly stretched his head to look upstairs.
Jiang Qingluo saw her intention and moved closer to the windowsill so that she could have a clear view of what was happening downstairs.
In the middle of the stage, there was a man wearing a green robe and his black hair was tied with a ribbon of the same color.
He has a slender figure, handsome features, and is about sixteen or seventeen years old. There is a youthful air of arrogance between his eyebrows.
When he introduced himself, the people around him started talking.
"He is Tang Yi, the champion of this year's imperial examination."
"His success in the imperial examination was expected. The poems he wrote when he was ten were already world-famous."
"Tang Yi is a well-deserved talent."
"He should be here to participate in the scientific examination. He arrived in the capital early, probably for this competition."
"I heard that his chess skills are also very good. I'm afraid that he will be the champion of Donglin Chess Academy this year."
Hearing the compliments from the people below, Tang Yi raised his chin and walked confidently to his opponent, "Please."
"Hello, Mr. Tang."
The person on the other side obviously knew him and was very respectful.
Jiang Qingwan looked at Tang Yi who was in high spirits below. She didn't expect him to appear so early.
"Who is this person? Why is he so famous?"
Jiang Qingluo asked the maid beside her in confusion, "He's from Jiangnan, and his fame has spread to the capital."
"This young master Tang could write at the age of three, paint at the age of five, and his poems were known throughout the Yuan Dynasty by the time he was ten. He was the most famous talent in Jiangnan."
"He's only seventeen this year, and he's already passed the imperial examination. Everyone says he'll be the top scorer this year."
There were stars in the maid's eyes, and it was obvious that she admired the couple, Master Tang Yi, very much.
"Being the top scholar at the age of seventeen is not much better than my elder brother."
Jiang Qingluo curled his lips. Jiang Chuyuan was a world-famous talent. Where did this Tang Yi come from? He even wanted to suppress his elder brother.
"No one can match the eldest young master. It's mainly because Mr. Tang is from a humble background that such a genius attracts more attention."
The maid hurriedly explained.
Tang Yi was born into a small merchant family. His family had a little money, so they sent him to school.
I heard that Tang's parents didn't expect him to learn anything academically, they just wanted him to learn more and expand the family business in the future.
Who would have thought that once he went to school, he would turn from an ordinary child into a genius.
From then on, Tang's parents devoted themselves to supporting his studies and spent all the family money on him.
Fortunately, Tang Yi is doing well. At such a young age, he is about to enter high school.
"My eldest brother's title of first place is a foregone conclusion, but this Young Master Tang's title is a guess. The imperial examination hasn't even begun yet, so how can you be so sure he'll be the top scorer?"
For some reason, Jiang Qingluo felt very unhappy looking at his smug look.
There are many talented people, he is not the only one, so is there any need to be so proud?
"This is just everyone's speculation. As for the final result, we will naturally have to wait until the scientific research is completed to know."
The maid added, "Even if you're not in the top three, you'll definitely pass the imperial examination."
It seems that this maid has an extraordinary admiration for Master Tang.
"Eating from the inside out."
Jiang Qingluo couldn't help but tap the maid's forehead. She left the talented man next to her and chased after a talented man from Jiangnan. What kind of vision did she have?
The maid stuck out her tongue mischievously. Although her mistress was arrogant and domineering, she was very nice to her, the maid who grew up with her.
Therefore, she was not afraid of Jiang Qingluo and often treated her in a casual manner.
Jiang Qingwan's eyes never left Tang Yi.
Tang Yi had indeed passed high school and was the top scorer. Having achieved fame at a young age, he should have been at the peak of his powers, riding a horse through the streets, enjoying all the flowers and applause like all the other top scorers.
But everything came to a halt during the palace examination. Someone reported cheating in this year's exam, and the examiner leaked the exam questions in advance.
[His uncle, the Minister of Rites, was confiscated and exiled. Tang Yi, who should have passed the imperial examination, was stripped of his title of the new top scholar and was no longer allowed to pursue a career in officialdom.]
[His life was ruined at that moment, and all of this was just a conspiracy designed by Prince Chen to bring down the Yu family.]
Tang Yi happened to be exceptionally talented and answered the question correctly. He also happened to be acquainted with the student who secretly purchased the test paper.
Everything was a coincidence, but it was such a coincidence that on the day he was driven out of the capital, his aunt passed away. He would never know the truth about his life.
[The only lucky thing about him was that he met his second brother, but in the end they were no match for the hero and heroine, and his second brother was arrested. He was forced to pretend to be crazy and stupid, and died of depression.]
Hearing these words, Jiang Qingluo felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck his head.
This Tang Yi is actually my aunt’s biological son?
She already knew from her mother that Han Tianrui was now Yun Liu's son, and her aunt's real son was missing.
Unexpectedly, it was him. Jiang Qingluo looked at Tang Yi again and found that there was indeed some shadow of his aunt between his eyebrows.
But more of them are like the prince consort, who is also a talented man from Jiangnan, and married his aunt after graduating from high school.
Is he following in his father's footsteps?
Then he thought of the fact that he had been switched by the prince consort since he was a child, and felt sorry for him for being treated like this by his biological father.
Just now I thought his high-spirited appearance was annoying, but then I heard that he was framed, failed to get the top spot in the imperial examination, and finally died of depression.
Jiang Qingluo couldn't help but feel sympathy. It was hard to imagine that this high-spirited and arrogant man would end up pretending to be crazy and died of depression.
