Su Luo and Su Tangyu went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.
At this time, there were already quite a few people sitting in the City Lord's Mansion.
Sitting at the top was the governor-general of Linbei Province, Dou Guanjun.
Sitting on his left was the governor of Qin County.
The governor of Qin County was Qin Yue.
The person standing behind him is Xue Buxiao.
Xue Buxiao is the elder brother of Xue Yixiao, the leader of the Xueyi Gang.
This Xue Buxiao is the steward of the Qin County Magistrate.
After that, it was Zhuo Yichi and the three surrounding city lords.
There are four city lords in Linbei Province, distributed around Peiyang City, and now, these three city lords have obviously defected to the new county governor.
This makes Peiyang City like a small boat on the sea.
Now everyone is ready to attack Pei Yangcheng.
In fact, what they are coveting now is the position of the mayor of Peiyang City.
Governor Dou sat at the top, his face as gloomy and unfathomable, and no one knew what he was thinking.
The governor of Qin County stroked his beard and was also very calm.
But the people below were getting restless.
For example, Zhuo Yichi, who was very hostile to the Su family, deliberately made a sound at this moment.
"It's almost time, why hasn't anyone from the Su family come yet?"
The neighboring city lord of Qinyin City, Zhan Ningzhan, stroked his chin and joked, "They won't... give up, right?"
Zhuo Yichi: "Give up? How could that be? If they gave up, they wouldn't have agreed in the first place."
Another Xunnan City Lord, Gu Shenchen, stroked his chin and said with a smile, "I heard that Su Muke, the eldest daughter of the Su family, has a bad reputation."
City Lord Qin nodded. "I've also asked people about this. I heard that the young lady is uneducated and a complete idiot. She can't even recognize a complete set of characters."
Zhuo Yichi: "Uh... well..."
City Lord Gu looked at Zhuo Yichi, the deputy city lord of Peiyang City, and asked with a smile, "Isn't Deputy City Lord Zhuo from Peiyang City? You've been in a lot of contact with Miss Su Muke, so you should know her a little bit, right? Tell me, is your young lady really uneducated?"
Zhuo Yichi smiled bitterly. "Well... she's not completely unlearned, is she? It's true she doesn't read, and it's also true she can't write poetry. As for subjects like history and geography, I heard her favorite thing to do is tear up books."
Seeing everyone's eyes sparkling, Zhuo Yichi added fuel to the fire: "Alas, when City Lord Su was here, he lamented that his daughter got a headache whenever she read, and couldn't learn martial arts well. He didn't know what to do in the future."
Governor Dou frowned upon hearing this: "Su Muke is actually this kind of person?"
Zhuo Yichi was very sure: "Master Dou, I did not discredit her. You will know when the real results come out."
The other city lords around had all heard of Su Muke's name, and now they all took the lead with a smile.
"Aren't the test papers going to be announced on the spot? We'll know whether it's a mule or a horse once we take it out for a walk."
"That's right, I'm really worried that our Miss Su won't be able to handle the on-the-spot corrections."
"Who told her to compete? Hahahaha—"
Just as everyone was laughing, a group of people came in from outside.
Su Luo, Su Tangyu, and the officials of the Su family.
Because the third round of examination is about how to be an official, subordinate officials are also one of the items.
When they saw them come in, everyone felt embarrassed and stopped laughing immediately.
Su Tangyu took Su Luo to Governor Dou and saluted.
