428 Revealing the rank-3

“Master, why don’t we jump over the roof to take a look?” Young master Liu suggested.

“Do you want to be cut down by the night watchman’s blade or have your heart pierced by thousands of arrows from the Royal sword guards?” The middle-aged swordsman said in a bad mood.

In an open space near the tribute courtyard, there was a sedan chair draped in red silk. A group of armed guards and two pretty servant girls surrounded the sedan chair.

“Chun ‘er, when will the results be released?”

A sweet and gentle female voice came from the sedan.

“Miss, there’s still another half an hour.”

The maidservant on the left, Chun ‘er, stood on her tiptoes and looked at the sundial in the distance.

The girl in the sedan chair was the daughter of the current head of the court’s assistant King zhenwen. She loved to participate in poetry and literature gatherings organized by scholars, and she also had a lively personality, so she naturally would not miss a grand event like the release of the spring examination results.

This young lady Wang was famous for her talent. Although she was not as outstanding as Princess huaiqing, it would be easy for her to pass the imperial examination if she was a man.

I wonder who will be the Huiyuan winner this year. Chun ‘er said in a sweet voice.

Miss Wang smiled and shook her head.

Fraud in the spring examination was not common. Although it was not blatant, there was a lot of exaggeration in it. The name of Huiyuan was a gimmick to the common people, but in the eyes of the people who knew the game, they could only say, ”

Brother, you’re rich!

Of course, there would occasionally be golden phoenixes that flew into the chicken’s nest, and there would always be some worthy talents who would win.

At this time, the other maidservant who had not spoken suddenly pointed into the distance and praised, “”What a handsome scholar.”

Miss Wang lifted the curtain and peeked out through a small gap.

She soon knew who the handsome scholar the servant girl was talking about was, because that person was so dazzling. Even if he was frowning in the crowd, it could not hide his handsome face.

Her eyebrows were delicate and long, her eyes were bright like stars, her lips were red, her teeth were white, and her skin was white. Her skin was more delicate and beautiful than most women.

Behind him was a beautiful woman with an oval face. She was wearing a luxurious dress and her hair was tied up high with a golden buyao in it.

Next to the beautiful woman was an elegant and refined young girl. Even a woman like miss Wang, who thought of herself as beautiful, couldn’t help but be stunned.

……….

Under the protection of a group of retinue, her aunt was not pushed and squeezed by the crowd, but she regretted coming to join in the fun.

Other than the noisy scholars, there were also many fierce-looking Jianghu people. This made his aunt, who only dared to punch her nephews and husband at home, feel terrified.

When she went out, she would often attract the gazes of some stinky men, but they were more reserved. The surrounding vulgar people were naked.

Gong Jie furrowed her brows and sighed in her heart. She was a natural beauty who couldn’t give up.

“Let’s do it here,”

Xu Erlang stopped and explained, ” when the results are revealed later, there will naturally be someone announcing the results. We’ll just listen here.

Auntie heaved a sigh of relief. She pulled Erlang’s hand and said,”Mother has also put in a lot of effort for your fame.”

“……. Mother has worked hard.” Xu Erlang said.

The apricot roll was posted on the east wall of the examination hall, also known as the “wall of merits.” As time passed, it was finally time for the roll to be revealed.

The first to be revealed was the sub-list.

Just the sub-list alone made all the students excited. Some cheered, some cried, showing the people present a lively scene of life.

“Reveal the rankings, it’s time to reveal the apricot roll.”

The students shouted loudly, the crowd was impassioned.
