The two words "Li Xiang" appeared clearly at the top of the list. It was the top of the list for the imperial examination, not the top of the list in the live broadcast room of the female anchor.
For a moment, the entire area outside the Chinese Academy of Sciences was in an uproar!
Li Xiang is only eight years old this year! To be able to rank first in an exam of this level at the age of eight, this is no longer a matter of talent and hard work, this must be a unique method!
"As expected of a prince, the sons and grandsons of dragons are different. They are born to be the best among men!"
This is the sigh of the onlookers who were watching from the side. In this era, most people think that the reason why dignitaries are dignitaries is that many of them are born with wealth.
The reason why we have to dig for food in the soil is that it is destined, we are not destined to do so.
But scholars don’t think so. As the saying goes, “Heaven moves forward, and a gentleman should constantly strive to improve himself.” They believe that they can change their destiny through reading and learning.
To put it bluntly, are there any special breeds of kings, princes, generals, and ministers?
Just because you, Li Xiang, are the son and grandson of the dragon, does that mean you are smarter than us? Not necessarily!
If your royal family is really so smart and has such excellent bloodlines, why do you need scholars like us to help govern the world? Why don't you just pick people from your own royal family?
So there must be special methods, even some shameful means!
Of course, most scholars would not express such dark thoughts.
Anyway, the beginning has ended, and this is the result.
Even if Li Xiang ranks first, it will not have much impact on the scholars taking the exam. Anyway, it only takes up one place, and the first place is the same as the 300th place.
If I were to dwell on this matter, it would be somewhat beneath my dignity.
However, the eldest prince did not want to let it go. He did not expect that Li Xiang had actually accomplished the task. At this moment, his face was extremely gloomy.
The princes had to study since they were young. The eldest prince knew from a young age that he was not cut out for studying. He even felt that none of his brothers and sisters had the talent for studying.
But today, Li Xiang suddenly appeared, which made him face the reality and made him even more nervous.
Li Xiang is now a scholar. If she can go one step further and become a juren, the scene will be even more different.
Dragon sons and grandsons are not uncommon in Da Qi, but it is different for those who have achieved fame and honor through their own efforts.
As long as Li Xiang won the title of Juren, the entire literati and the entire civil service system would naturally stand on his side. This was absolutely unacceptable to the eldest prince who was determined to ascend the throne.
Fortunately, he had been prepared in advance, so he immediately winked at the servant beside him, and the servant ran out in a hurry.
Not long after, the man came back and whispered in the eldest prince's ear, "Everything is done."
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud noise came from outside. Someone shouted loudly, "Cheating! This must be cheating! The test questions must have been leaked in advance, otherwise how could an eight-year-old kid do so well in the exam!"
This sudden shout immediately awakened the dark side of people's hearts. Someone immediately spoke up, "That's right. It must be cheating for personal gain. The exam is being held at your Chinese Academy of Sciences. You must know the contents of the exam. You must have leaked the exam questions in advance!"
Such accusations are extremely vicious. Not only do they deny Li Xiang's achievements, but they also throw dirty water on the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Looking at the excited scholars around, everyone knew that if the situation was not handled properly, it would likely cause a riot.
The eldest prince, holding a teacup, watched the lively scene downstairs with a smile on his face. He chuckled coldly, "Do you think you're so great after getting first place? Today, I'll teach you a lesson: the higher the virtue, the higher the evil!"
Originally, Li Xiang had not planned to show up here because he had already known his results last night.
But now that such a big thing has happened, how can he, as the person involved, not stand up and say something?
Compared with before, Li Xiang is now more responsible and more like a man.
Li Xiang walked out of the gate of the Chinese Academy of Sciences under the escort of a group of guards. He glanced around and said in a deep voice, "I heard that some people don't recognize my grades, saying that I got them by cheating. Come, I'm out today and I'm standing right here. Who said that? Stand up and I'll give you an explanation!"
In fact, in this matter, most people were involved and did not intend to deal with Li Xiang and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but just wanted to join in the fun.
No one expected that Li Xiang's reaction would be so intense, and a large number of people stopped talking immediately.
Even the few people who were leading the pace just now have stopped now. Although Li Xiang is only eight years old, he exudes an inexplicable oppressive force from his whole body.
But there's no shortage of daring people in this world. After a brief silence, someone suddenly shouted, "Is the prince so great? Can the prince use despicable means to get the top spot? If the royal family wants to do this, then what is the point of all our years of hard study!"
Human beings are such blindly obedient creatures. Once someone takes the lead, those who felt guilty just now will immediately feel that they are capable.
They actually started to attack Li Xiang and said all kinds of nasty things to her.
The guard standing next to Li Xiang held the hilt of the knife tightly, as if he would chop someone down as soon as Li Xiang gave the order.
The eldest prince stood upstairs and leaned over to watch what was happening below.
