Chapter 309: Doubts of topping the list again

Looking at the extra plate of braised pork on the table, His Majesty Li Er and his son looked at each other, and they saw a hint of embarrassment in each other's eyes... They didn't need to look up, from the hand that was holding the plate, they already knew who was coming!

"Old, mom... are you hungry?" Li Chengqian asked with a embarrassed smile on his face, looking at Empress Changsun who suddenly appeared beside him with a little charming look.

Queen Changsun glanced at him lightly, then looked at His Majesty Li Er, who was also in the air with his arms, and said lightly: "Isn't this little meat missing in the palace? Since you want to eat it, please make another one. Why fight for a piece of meat? There is no gain or loss of the identity of His Majesty and the prince!"

"Hehe, what my mother said is, I'm still young and ignorant, and I won't know how to do it in the future!"

Li Chengqian's words made His Majesty Li Er glar at him fiercely. How could His Majesty Li Er not understand his little thoughts? What does he mean is that although His Majesty Li Er is older than him and is a father, he is so ashamed to compete with him for meat to eat. He is so ignorant!

"Ahem... Guanyin Maid, why are you here?" His Majesty Li Er changed the topic bluntly, and even grabbed Empress Changsun's hand.

"My second brother left in the evening. I thought there was an urgent political matter, but after asking, I realized that my second brother had come to the East Palace... I didn't expect that my second brother came to grab the meat with Gao Ming!" Queen Changsun said in a teasing way.

"Uh...hahaha, I'm here to find Gao Ming to say something. I'm just hungry, so I'll have something to eat with Gao Ming... It's getting late, let's go back!" After that, without waiting for Queen Changsun to respond, he took her hand and walked out!

Empress Changsun also let him pull it, turned her head and glared at Li Chengqian, and left.

...

The second Jinshi exam is released the same time as the first one, both in the morning.

Compared with the first time the exam was released, although there were fewer candidates outside the Censor's Office waiting for the exam today, the number of people watching the fun was more than twice that of the day.

The reason for this is not because everyone is mentally distorted, and they want to see the intense emotional changes of these candidates after failing or making it to the list, but...

"Old Liu, you should listen to me. Wu Jianzhang from O'Tai School is most likely to win the first place!"

"Listen to you? Humph, what do you know? Although Wu Jianzhang is quite talented, he is far inferior to Huang Yishan, Jiangnan Road. Look at the first exam, Wu Jianzhang is ranked behind Huang Yishan!"

"The first game cannot be counted... Wu Jianzhang is good at a hundred classics but not good at poetry and essays. It is expected that the first game is ranked low! But this second game..."

"Okay, what's the use of saying so much? The list article will come out soon. Is it Wu Jianzhang or Huang Yishan the number one? You can tell at a glance!"

"Haha... If I hadn't been confident, how could I have been focusing on Wu Jianzhang? It must be Wu Jianzhang's number one!"

"I'm talking about two, you've been discussing Wu Jianzhang and Huang Yishan... Haven't you ever thought about the Li Zhi, who escaped from the first game?"

"He? A person with unknown reputation is a lucky chance to win the first place in the first game. How could he win two top spots in a row?"

"Yes, the gambling house has not even opened this Li Zhi's house... no one is optimistic about him!"

...

Wang Xuance and Li Lizhi stood in the same corner. When they heard the people's discussions, they couldn't help looking at each other. Instead, they did not squeeze to the front and wait for the results to be released, they stood outside the crowd.

Li Lizhi said with some confusion: "These people... do they actually use the scientific test to gamble money?"

Wang Xuance was not surprised and smiled and said, "Yes, they not only bet who can get the first place, but also bet who can finally get the first place! And... almost all gambling shops in Chang'an City will open a market for scientific examinations!"

Li Lizhi: “…”

"Are the two people they mentioned about Wu Jianzhang and Huang Yishan the day before yesterday that we met at Linhu Plaza?"

The day before yesterday, Li Lizhi was invited by Wang Xuance to attend a so-called poetry meeting at Linhu Park near Furong Garden...

Originally, she thought that the poetry meeting was a gathering of many talented men and beautiful women, and everyone recited poems and essays, but who would have thought that when they really came to the place, they knew that the so-called poetry meeting was completely "selling dog meat with the title of sheep", but in fact, the candidates in the scientific examination praised each other and praised themselves together!

Especially the people around, Wu Jianzhang and Huang Yishan mentioned by the people, they were almost praised by the students. They were no problem with passing the exam, and the top scorer was very good!

The two of them accepted the praises of everyone completely. Although they were saying something ridiculous, why was it too early, etc., they were completely superior in their tone and expression, as if they were really the top scorer in high school!

Now that I heard that since the people were gambling with the top names of who could write high school exams, Li Lizhi’s reflection on the two was even worse!

I even thought to myself that I would go back and talk to the prince’s brother later, don’t let these two people win the top scorer... It would be better that no one wins the top scorer, just leave it to myself!

...

The people were talking a lot, and the candidates were looking forward to it, and finally the list was posted, and then...

"Hahaha, sure enough... Fortunately, I foreseeed this situation in advance, otherwise we would definitely be surrounded by others and would be unable to get out of here!" Wang Xuance saw the name at the top of the list from afar and laughed at Li Lizhi.

The latter looked at Wang Xuance with a shocked face, looked at the list text that could be seen in the distance, and said in disbelief: "I, I actually, I am the head again... Woo woo..."

Before he could say anything, Wang Xuance suddenly covered his mouth, "Brother Li, let's go back and talk about it. It's not suitable here!"

Li Lizhi suddenly thought that she almost revealed her identity again, and nodded and signaled Wang Xuance to let go of herself... If the people around her knew that the person who robbed them and had a heavy bet was right in front of her, wouldn't she have to tear her up directly?

They didn't dare to stay any longer, and the two of them squeezed out of the crowd and quickly left the scene.

It was still the place that turned around the corner of the street. The two stopped again. Wang Xuance immediately bowed and congratulated Li Lizhi: "Congratulations to Brother Li, for winning the championship again!"

"Me, why am I the first one again? How could it be?" Li Lizhi couldn't believe that she had actually topped the list again.

"Brother Li, don't be humble. Do you still know your talent and knowledge?" Wang Xuance said with a smile.

Li Lizhi frowned, always feeling that it was wrong for her to win the first place again. Although she was confident that she had answered the second exam, if she could get the first place... the wood lump in front of her is much better than her, so why is it not as high as her own? By the way, she only cares about her own affairs, and I don’t know if he is on the list!

Thinking of this, Li Lizhi hurriedly asked, "Where are you, have you seen who you are?"

Wang Xuance smiled as usual and said: "As Brother Li said before, I am indeed a little worse than Brother Li. I am lucky enough to live below Brother Li!"

"Then you are the second place?"

"If you read it right... it should be?"

"Then I have to congratulate you too. Although it is a little worse than me, it is quite good!" Li Lizhi pretended to be proud and patted Wang Xuance's arm and smiled.
