Song Xing: I am cultivating immortals in Qingcheng Mountain

Chapter 550 Enke, Xiao Yu's guess
The autumn wind rises and the autumn leaves fall.

In the blink of an eye, the autumn examination was approaching, and more and more people began to study in Tianqi City.

Jinxian brought the imperial edict from Emperor Mingde, asking Xiao Se, White Prince Xiao Chong, and Red Prince Xiao Yu to jointly preside over this autumn examination.

When Jin Xian was leaving, his eyes were somewhat complicated. He knew a lot about the imperial examination. Jin Yu was a scholar back then. Unfortunately, he ultimately failed to achieve his wish.

"Your Highness, the world is not what we all imagine it to be. Many times, we need to think twice before we act."

When Xiao Se heard this, he thought for a moment and then thanked him.

……

On this day, Lei Wujie, Tang Lian and Sikong Qianluo stood outside Tianqi City, watching groups of scholars entering the city. The three of them were a little curious.

"It's the imperial examination. I heard that the emperor is holding another special examination. The palace examination was originally scheduled for next spring."

Tang Lian seemed to know some inside information, but what he knew was limited, so he only said this.

"The imperial examinations. I heard that passing these exams will allow you to become an official."

Lei Wujie curled his lips. He didn't have a very good impression of those officials.

"There aren't many good guys among those bastards who prey on the people in the village."

Sikong Qianluo also said a few words angrily.

At this moment, a man dressed as a scholar staggered out from the crowd as if he was pushed by someone.

"Ouch!!"

When Tang Lian and the other two saw each other's attire, they guessed each other's identity.

Sikong Qianluo frowned as he looked at the fleeing figures swaying behind the crowd. Although he didn't know why those people did this, he couldn't just stand by and watch since he had encountered them.

"You are so old, yet you are still so reckless. I heard that you are here to take an exam. If your pens, ink, paper, and inkstone are damaged, you will cry."

While packing up, Qianluo did not forget to mutter a few words. For a scholar, things like pen, ink, paper and inkstone are almost like the gun in his hand. If he loses even the gun on the battlefield, he will be dead.

"That's what the girl said, that's what the girl said."

The scholar smiled bitterly and nodded, his eyes showing a hint of gratitude. With so many people watching, only Sikong Qianluo was willing to lend a helping hand.

"What's your name? My name is Sikong Qianluo."

Seeing that the visitor was quite tactful, Sikong Qianluo rarely said a few more words.

"My name is Zhuge Jingxuan, thank you for your help, young lady."

Sikong Qianluo waved his hand.

"No need to thank me. If you can pass the exam, I hope you can treat the people well. I heard that scholars like you will become bad when you become officials. I don't know if it's true."

When Zhuge Jingxuan heard this, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and didn't know what to say. Then, seeing that Sikong Qianluo did not stay for too long, he helped him put his things away, and then left with Tang Lian and Lei Wujie.

Looking at the three people's departing backs, Zhuge Jingxuan had a complicated expression and shook his head.

"Do even the people in the underworld know about the corruption in the officialdom?"

Of course, this was just a small episode on the way back to Tianqi for Tang Lian and the other two. Not long after, they had returned to Xueluo Villa. As soon as they got back here, the three were taken away by Tang Lianyue, Li Hanyi, and Sikong Changfeng. As their masters and relatives, they were all very worried about what they encountered along the way.

On the other side, Xiao Yu and Luo Qingyang also rushed back, but compared to Tang Lian and the others, they were even more exhausted.

"what!!!"

Xiao Yu had just taken a sip of tea when he suddenly heard that Xiao Se had passed the Jiange trial and successfully entered the Shenyou Xuan realm. For a moment, he lost control of the strength in his hand and directly crushed the teacup in his hand.

"How could he pass the test with his personality? Is our ancestor blind?"

Xiao Yu clenched his fists, which made a creaking sound, and his eyes flashed with cold light. It was because he knew some secrets of the Sword Pavilion Trial and determined that Xiao Se would never be able to pass the Sword Pavilion Trial that he left Tianqi with Luo Qingyang to look for the "Nine Nether Ghost Codex".

Now that he had just returned to Tianqi, he had received such news, which was like a bolt from the blue for him. He had gone through life and death to obtain the "Nine Nether Ghost Canon" and the art of making medicine men, and now his realm is only the Great Free and Easy Heaven Realm. The image of Zhao Shouyi's sword breaking through the air was still flashing in his mind, and the feeling of being on the verge of life and death made him unable to help but feel scared.

He was not sure whether Zhao Shouyi noticed him at that time. If he had, he and Luo Qingyang might not be able to come back.

"How did he gain recognition from the ancestors?"

Xiao Yu immediately asked the question that he cared about most. The most difficult level in Jiange was not the one at the beginning, but the final stage of self-examination.

At that time, the King of Langya had already reached the realm of Great Freedom, and he was also proficient in the Sword Technique of Splitting a Nation. The first few levels of the Sword Pavilion trial did not stop him, and he passed them easily. Unfortunately, in the last level, the Questioning of Conscience, he did not gain Xiao Yi's recognition.

"Prince Yong'an did not mention this, so no one in Tianqi City knows the reason for this matter."

Xiao Yu snorted lightly. This time he did not continue to embarrass his subordinates. Come to think of it, if he had passed the Sword Pavilion trial, he would not have said such nonsense.

"What does the emperor mean?"

Passing the trial in Jiange and gaining recognition from the ancestors undoubtedly proves that Xiao Se is indeed qualified to inherit the Beili kingdom. But the key point is that Emperor Mingde is still alive, and he doesn't believe that his father doesn't mind this matter at all!

"The Emperor sent someone to lift the prince's house arrest, and he will preside over this year's autumn examination together with His Royal Highness Prince Bai and Prince Yong'an."

When Xiao Yu heard this, a sneer appeared on his lips. His father was finally nervous.

"Autumn Examination."

"Hasn't Xiao Chong been in charge of this matter all along? Why did the emperor let the three of us host it together this year?"

The visitor bowed and continued, "Your Highness, this is the case. This year's autumn examination is considered a special examination. The real palace examination was originally scheduled for the spring of next year. The emperor seems to be trying to win me over."

Xiao Yu's eyes were gloomy. The imperial court was indeed not very stable nowadays. He could understand why his father had such intention.

"By the way, Lord Cao, the Minister of Works, and several other officials from other ministries sent their visiting cards a few days ago. Your Highness was not at home at the time, so he did not reply to them. Would Your Highness like to meet them?"

Xiao Yu frowned. The people he was talking about were his arms in the court. He had to meet them no matter what. But he didn't know what they were thinking by having them come to see him at this time!

"etc."

Xiao Yu suddenly seemed to remember something, and then asked, "These people want to come to see me, is it after the emperor asked me to preside over the imperial examination, or before?"

"What a coincidence, it was right after Eunuch Jinxian issued the decree!!"
