Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

He has received a notice that the test will be changed from the divine test to the literary test tomorrow.

This is certainly good news for him.

It's just that among all the candidates, he was the only one who applied for more than one imperial examination. Such changes in the process can't help but make people think a little.

Bai Yu himself knew very well that he did not have the ability to influence Zhonghu's decision-making. As for what other people thought, it was not up to him.

"Actually, the thing I'm most unsure about is the literary test."

He said truthfully: "Because I don't know what kind of messy questions will appear."

"Aren't you good at writing poems and lyrics?"

Mu Yaoxi appeared at the door at some unknown time and put down the fruit plate in her hand.

Then he leaned next to Su Ruoli, playing with the dark hair with the fingers of his right hand, and picked up a cherry with the fingers of his left hand and handed it to Su Ruoli's head.

"I think with your literary talent, it's more than enough to kill that group of people, right?"

Su Ruoli bit the Cheerilee, licked her lips, and then signaled that she wanted to eat another one.

The scene of two beautiful girls making love is very eye-catching. It makes Bai Yu have a dream of returning to the feudal era when he was a wealthy family, watching the beautiful wife and concubine sitting on the soft couch to serve the high officials... Ahem!

Bai Yu didn't look at the indecent words and picked up a piece of broken watermelon and threw it into his mouth: "Poetry is mostly used by poor poets to express their emotions. In the final analysis, it is just a word game with Wen Jue's words. Being able to write poetry has never been a big deal. "

"Take Su Dongpo as an example. He is very famous for his poems, but apart from his literary talent, he is really not good at being an official. His younger brother is much more powerful than Su Shi himself. He has only done three things in his life. He is promoted and made rich to make money for his elder brother. Su Shi has been doing it all the way. He was demoted, but his brother was promoted all the way up."

"Really great people make their poems spread through the ages. They don't rely on talent, but on real ability and hard power!"

Su Ruoli thought for a while: "What about?"

"Prime Minister." Bai Yu said, "I have never written a few lines of poetry in my life. One chapter has 758 words and created thirteen idioms... This is high and hard."

Mu Yaoxi chuckled: "Who in Daxia doesn't like Zhuge Liang?"

"That's not necessarily true. Does Sun Shiwan have fans?"

"Who is it? Next time we invite you to dinner, let him sit at the children's table."

While Su Ruoli was eating cherries, she watched the two of them talking and laughing, secretly wondering if she had been tricked.

Her tutoring was excellent. Although she didn't eat or sleep silently, it was still indecent for her to talk while eating in her little mouth.

Miss Su was fed three times in a row and fell into a minute-long silence.

Mu Yaoxi gave up as soon as she felt good, fed herself, and let the topic get out of the way.

Bai Yu remembered it and asked, "You went to the hospital today. How is Ruan Qingxue's condition?"

"It's not bad. It needs some recovery time. Shanhaisi's blood test will take some time." Su Ruoli said: "I followed along and didn't find anything overstepped."

"Well, it's best that he doesn't." Bai Yu tapped his fingers on the desk: "But Shanhaisi is destined to experience a turmoil, so there is no need to get too close to them for the time being."

"Has your deal with Shanhaisi ended?"

"It's over. I've got what I want." Bai Yu nodded: "With an agreement in hand, Shanhaisi will not be able to cause trouble to me for at least ten years."

Miss Su didn't ask further questions. Since Mu Mu didn't say anything, it proved that the time hadn't come yet.

Mu Yaoxi wanted to ask more questions out of curiosity, but half a cucumber was stuffed into her mouth, forcing her to shut up with a whimper.

Su Ruoli continued to talk about Ruan Qingxue, estimating that it might take a week to half a month for her to fully recover. She couldn't even get out of bed in the first few days, but now she can use a wheelchair.

Ruan Qingshan also arrived in the capital yesterday. With his brother here, development is going smoothly.

There is another little episode here.

"The Danshi Association and the Nangong family have quietly contacted Ruan Qingshan, do you want to stop it?" Mu Yaoxi leaned her chin on Su Ruoli's shoulder, took out her mobile phone, picked out the photo and sent it over: "You are a rare commodity now. , the circle of friends will definitely be investigated clearly, Ruan Qingxue is covered by the relationship of Shanhaisi, but Ruan Qingshan does not, the Nangong family has always liked to forcibly bind interests through marriage. "

Bai Yu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, this is not a bad thing."

The culture of Daxia has been like this for thousands of years. Family marriages and interests are bound, and a son-in-law is equal to half a son.

The Nangong family has studied this path more deeply. This millennium-old family is very good at investing, especially investing in talents.

Su Ruoli also agreed: "Qingxue's talent is excellent, and her brother is also very talented in business. It would be good if the Nangong family gives her a platform."

"If this is the case, it will give the Nangong family an advantage." Mu Yaoxi said, "It's a pity that the military is not allowed to do business. This aspect is prohibited, and neither my grandparents nor I can touch it."

Military families are not allowed to marry merchants. This is one of the ironclad rules tacitly accepted by the Great Xia Military Department.

In fact, businessmen's social status in Daxia was not high and they were not well received.

The world lacks exports, economic operations rely on large internal markets, and capital cannot flow freely across borders. Naturally, it is difficult to form a giant-level chaebol.

Moreover, the existence of extraordinary people is actually another class. No matter how much wealth a businessman accumulates, it is difficult for him to be noticed by the real extraordinary people. He can only spend a lot of money to buy security services, and the results are often unsatisfactory. Ruan This is how the family's tragedy came about.

If Ruan Qingshan can really have a cooperative relationship with the Nangong family, or directly marry, no matter what his future achievements are, at least his life safety will be basically guaranteed.

From the perspective of interest exchange, this is actually a standard win-win situation, and it is not directly related to Bai Yu, so he will not dissuade him.

As for whether the Nangong family can win over Ruan Qingshan... Bai Yu has no doubts. With the background of a thousand-year-old family, it is not easy to select a well-educated, marriageable and XP-worthy girl from the side line.

Moreover, Ruan Qingshan has no possibility of rejecting this olive branch and directly omits the fast-forward button of fifty years of struggle. Who can resist pressing it?

I wish I could press it ten times!

Mu Yaoxi was not interested in the Ruan brothers and sisters, and her friendship with Ruan Qingxue was only average.

She is not blind. She has long seen that Ruan Qingxue's soft and waxy personality hides a friendship that is like water, waiting for the day when the water drops will penetrate the stone.

Although Su Ruoli's protection was comparable to Aries' crystal wall, there was no telling what would happen.

As a latecomer, Mu Yaoxi couldn't say anything, but she didn't really have much goodwill towards Ruan Qingxue. She was generous enough to remain ordinary friends, and she also felt a little sympathy for others.

"Are you really unsure about tomorrow's literary test?" Mu Yaoxi changed the subject.

"Who are the candidates for the literary test?" Bai Yu asked.

"The strongest opponent should be Shentuyu from the Star Observation Department, the apple of the Shentu family. This girl is twenty-eight years old this year. She was recruited into the Star Observation Department at the age of thirteen, and then studied under the supervisor, and learned about astronomy. She knows geography and is rich in knowledge. In terms of knowledge alone, among her peers in the entire Daxia, she is probably the best in arithmetic."

"Does the literary test only test arithmetic?" Su Ruoli was curious.

"The essay questions are different every year. Shen Tuyu's advantage, in addition to arithmetic, is that she comes from the Star Observation Department. The Star Observation Department is the eyes of the ten divisions of Daxia, observing the chaos and endless changes in the world. The central government often You need to ask the Supervisor of the Star Observation Department for advice on everything. As his close disciple, Shen Tuyu’s broad knowledge is evident... She has never really practiced Kung Fu for a day in her life, but at the age of twenty-six, because of proving A mathematical conjecture brightens the soul and jumps to the third transcendent realm."

Mu Yaoxi couldn't hide the admiration in her words.

"Do you know her very well?"

"I've only heard rumors, but I've never seen a real person." Mu Yaoxi said, "It is rumored that she is extremely beautiful... If Xiao Shuihan is the most beautiful man in the capital, then she is the most beautiful woman in the capital."

"Zun Du and fake Du?" Bai Yu was curious: "Do you have a photo? Let me know."

"Do you think this is a shameless picture? It's superficial!" Mu Yaoxi shook her head: "I don't have any photos of her. I told you I have never seen her."

Bai Yu thought so.

When Shen Tuyu became famous, the younger generation had not yet grown up.

And the title of being the most beautiful in the capital is really nothing.

If Daxia was the most beautiful, he might actually be interested in going over to see what she looked like.

"Who is the most beautiful woman in Great Xia? Do you need to think about it?" Mu Yaoxi held her chin.

"Who?"

"The one in Zhonghu."

"……really."

Chapter 546 Fast forward to marriage

Palace examination, literary examination.

A total of one hundred and thirty-nine people participated in the test.

From all provinces and cities in Daxia.

The selection rules of the Literary Examination are different from those of the Martial Arts Examination and the Divine Examination. It is the only palace examination that can be recommended and passed through layers of selections to qualify for the examination.

The writing test is the only imperial examination that even ordinary people can participate in.

However, of the one hundred and thirty-nine people who participated in the test, only twenty-seven were ordinary people. The others were all extraordinary beings, and they were extraordinary beings of a high level.

In the history of Daxia, there is no shortage of extraordinary people who have entered the Tao through knowledge. This can be regarded as the lifelong pursuit of this group of students.

Unlike the martial arts test and the divine test, which will be broadcast live, the examination room for the literary test is completely closed.

Once you get in, you can't get out. It lasts a whole day, eight hours.

Because of the large number of candidates, the assessment of this literary test has also attracted many people's attention.

The influence of the leader of the literary examination is not weaker than that of the leader of the martial arts examination.

Although he does not have as strong a force as the latter, the former is qualified to enter the Daxia Central Committee to participate in top-level decision-making, and with experience, he will be a high-ranking official in the future.

Among the one hundred and thirty-nine people, the oldest is thirty-four years old who has stepped on the line, and the youngest is Bai Yu, who is almost seventeen years old and is still a few days away from adulthood.

The most famous one is Shentu Fish.

Although when it comes to reputation, Bai Yu is not inferior to Shen Tuyu at all, but after all, this is a literary test. How high can the seventeen-year-old Bai Yu achieve?

He may be able to write poems and poems, but these are not the things that are tested in the literary examination. Only those who are truly knowledgeable and well-founded can shine with their wonderful writing.

Shen Tuyu participated in the last literary test five years ago and successfully won the first place in the literary test. Now this is her second time taking the literary test. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is defending her title.

Under such a strong contrast, even Baiyu's club support group can only remain cautiously optimistic.

Enter the examination room inside the Forbidden City.

The location is not inside the Jinluan Hall, but outside.

Tables are placed in the sunny square, and the sky is the roof.

There was not a single wave of wind in the open space, because someone used their majestic consciousness to completely block the space.

Even the seats are arranged randomly.

After Bai Yu entered, he randomly found a seat in the corner.

After a while, someone sat in front of me.

"Ah, hello, we meet again."

The person who spoke was a beautiful older sister, wearing a gray windbreaker, a tight woolen sweater, flesh-colored stockings, boots, slightly curly long hair, and a fashionable appearance paired with a picture of an unseasoned first love. Face.

Anyone who sees him will be reminded of his lost youth.

If you had seen such a person in high school, you would have been amazed throughout your youth.

"..."

Facing the person who took the initiative to greet him, Bai Yu carefully looked and analyzed it. After looking back and forth for three times with extremely strange eyes, he asked his soul question: "Who are you?"

"It's me, it's me!" the eldest sister tried to emphasize.

But Bai Yu couldn't understand it at all.

After a while, she took off the hairpin that fixed her hair, messed it up, then took out a pair of thick glasses and put them on.

Bai Yu suddenly realized: "Ah, it's you! The administrator of the Astrology Pavilion!"

"Yes, it's me."

"Have you had plastic surgery?"

"?" The eldest sister was angry: "Is it such an exaggeration? This is my original appearance!"

"No, no, no, it's too different." Bai Yu remembered that the administrator he met before looked very much like Poppy who stayed up late, but now he suddenly had the face of a first love goddess, and he would never think he was the same person.

"I haven't adjusted my work and rest before, so I'm inevitably a little haggard." The administrator sister touched her cheek and said, "I have to come to the palace for the examination recently, so I changed my work and rest a little, and went to the beauty salon by the way, and I didn't study for half a month. I didn’t do arithmetic, I didn’t read a book, I ate and slept all day long, and slept and ate, so it just happened naturally.”

"I understand." Bai Yu expressed his understanding: "Mathematics makes people grow older."

"I forgot to introduce myself." The eldest sister asked, "What is your name?"

"Bai Yu, Yu Jing...didn't I tell you last time?"

"I don't remember. I won't remember unnecessary information."

"Your name?"

"Shentu, Shentu fish."

The two shook hands in a friendly manner.
