Chapter 466: Top Scholar Candidate



There's no way, Ling Yi's voice is too penetrating.

They were just about to take a nap when they heard the explosive news.

Ling Jiheng is so awesome. Among so many students across the country, he actually got the first place.

Strictly speaking, he barely had many years of education. Becoming a member at such a young age simply leaves no room for others.

The Ling family smiled and congratulated Chi Xingyue. Chi Xingyue held her belly and did not hide the excitement on her face at all.

Oh my god, this is "Central Selection", Ling Jiheng is much more awesome than she was back then.

Of course, the Ling family didn't stay here for long. They were afraid that Chi Xingyue would get tired, so they only sat there for half a minute before leaving.

The old lady came to the gate with the help of Shu Muyun, looked at the neighbors with smiling faces, waved her hands and distributed money.

Although the people gathered at the door were all from wealthy families, who wouldn't want to share in the good fortune?

As for the two people who failed the exam, everyone has forgotten about them.

The main reason was that the members were too powerful, and they were definitely candidates for the top spot. Their eyes were no longer open to others.

The Ling family was bustling with activity. If the Imperial Examination had not been followed immediately by the Palace Examination, the old lady would have wanted to set up a banquet for three days and three nights to share the good news with everyone.

Her grandson is promising, and the second branch of the Ling family is not suppressed by the first and third branches.

The old lady's secret joy rose again.

On that day, Ling Jiheng brought Ling Jiyi and Huang Minbo back from the academy, and the family had a barbecue and hotpot.

Chi Xingyue even took out some Moutai from the space to liven up the atmosphere. The group of people drank until they were staggering and laughing till tears came out.

On April 18, the tribute students entered the palace and went to Baohe Hall to take the re-examination.

This imperial examination is the first one since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there is no room for error.

The re-examination can not only eliminate those who cheat to get promoted, but also allow everyone to adapt to the environment in advance.

This will save me from having to face the emperor on the day of the formal palace examination and being so nervous that I will tremble and be unable to write.

We also have to suspect that the invigilator and the candidates are cheating together.

In this way, Ling Jiheng left before dawn and came back when it was dark.

Although he looked tired, he was in good spirits.

Chi Xingyue asked him, "Did you do well in the exam?"

Ling Jiheng chuckled: "Yeah!"

In fact, he just wrote casually, not caring too much about the ranking, just doing his best.

Chi Xingyue didn't ask any more questions. After having dinner with him, they both went to rest.

Having not entered the space for a long time, Ling Jiheng sat on the recliner and sighed with contentment.

Chi Xingyue wanted to pick some fruit for him, but Ling Jiheng quickly pushed her onto the bench: "Don't move, I'll do it!"

It was actually his fault that he stayed in the academy for a few months while his wife was pregnant.

She only came back occasionally to visit and had no idea how hard it was to be pregnant.

But he is not a fool.

Chi Xingyue's belly is so big that she has to hold it when she walks. Isn't it hard for her?

She didn't even let Baozhu take care of him personally, he felt so guilty!

If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have indulged myself that night!

Ling Jiheng collected his thoughts, took a stroll in the orchard, picked out some food that pregnant women could eat, and went to the bathroom to wash.

Chi Xingyue ate the cherries without hesitation and asked him, "How come you are so amazing? You always get first place in the exam!"

Ling Jiheng touched his nose, feeling a little guilty.

He felt that his level was not up to that level at all.

Maybe the examiner just happened to like his writing style.

The truth was pretty much what Ling Jiheng had guessed.

At that time, there were seven or eight excellent test papers placed in front of the examiners, some of which were better than Ling Jiheng's in word choice and sentence structure.

What can I say about Ling Jiheng? He has a quick mind and advanced ideas, but his writing is not dazzling enough.

Not a lot of flattery.

In the answer sheet, it is pretty good, but I always feel that something is missing.

As for others, they not only solved the problem but also praised Emperor Zhou, which made people feel relaxed and happy. However, their opinions lacked constructiveness.

Just when they were in trouble, the examiner saw the shadow of Dean Wen from the details.

He concluded that it was his junior fellow student who wrote the insightful ideas, so he went against all odds and pushed Ling Jiheng to the position of member.

It can be said that in addition to his strength, Ling Jiheng does have some luck.

When Chi Xingyue heard this, he suddenly remembered the original text he had read.

In the original text, Ling Jiheng also entered the officialdom through imperial examinations and eventually became a villain.

There is no reason why if he married me and his fate as a villain was changed, he would become an ordinary person.

Excellent people are excellent wherever they go. It seems that I am really lucky.

Without fighting or competing, you can become the wife of an important official in the court.

Hehehehe!

At night, the two of them slept in the space.

Chi Xingyue was lying on a 1.2-meter-long bed, and Ling Jiheng was lying on an 80-centimeter-long folding bed.

They thought it would be hard to fall asleep in such bright light, but the truth was, they fell asleep within two minutes of lying down.

It can be seen that the spiritual energy in the space is so rich that it can really relieve their fatigue and repair their bodies.

The next day, Ling Jiheng was in high spirits and did not work too hard just because the palace examination was approaching.

He should exercise and eat when it's time. The maids and servants of the Ling family all admire the second young master in their hearts and think he is a real warrior.

These days, Shu Muyun often suffers from insomnia, fearing that something unexpected might happen to his son during the palace examination.

Doctor Cheng went to see the patient several times and even prescribed medicine, but it was of no use.

But she didn't care and waved her hand: "It's okay, just get through these few days."

After Chi Xingyue found out, he asked Baozhu to make some sweet soup for Shu Muyun.

Sour and sweet hawthorn, strawberry, apricot, plus white fungus, red dates, and spiritual spring water.
