On the day of the exam, Dan Rong personally drove Qin Xiao into the examination hall. There were three rounds in total, and each round lasted for three days. During these three days, the examinees would have to spend all of their time in a five foot square room, where they could eat, drink, and sleep. While searching her body, although she was wearing soft armor, Qin Xiaoliu's heart was beating wildly, as if she was afraid that someone would notice. In the end, she looked at her tattered and tattered clothes, which was covered in sweat, with a look of disdain.

The three exams were policy inquiry, ink meaning and lyrics. The so-called questions should be based on philosophy and politics. This door was actually very simple, as long as one was familiar with the annotations, one would be able to achieve success. However, the scope of the scriptures was very wide, and there were also a lot of exam questions, so the examinee had to be very satisfied with the group of books. Poems, on the other hand, could be considered as the most difficult subject. The title was usually the Aria, but in order to stand out amongst the other examinees, one had to possess their own uniqueness.

Qin Xiaobao narrowed her eyes as she held the pen in her mouth. She was somewhat speechless when she saw the thick stack of papers that had been handed out. When she saw the other examinees starting to write like crazy, she restrained herself from yawning and also started to answer while licking her brush and ink.

The first two were naturally not difficult for the little hoodlum Qin. Normally, when he bragged in front of Mo Qingfeng, he was not bragging, but this poem was a little difficult. He couldn't write it too well because he was afraid of taking the lead; he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to choose if it was too bad. Although the organizer this time was Ming Xiao Yuan, Qin Xiao knew that there was definitely someone who had a good record behind him.

The question that Qin Xiao had was "Qiuyan", Qin Xiao didn't know how to deal with it. It was just a bird, so it should taste pretty good while being roasted. It wasn't because she was stupid, but because she was in a dilemma and her master didn't teach her. Although her master was an omnipotent elegant person, he had never asked her to thoroughly study poetry. Fortunately, Qin Xiaoliu was born intelligent, otherwise, she would not be able to do anything today. As he thought about it, he rubbed his belly — hungry, he went to the small basket and took out two steamed buns. He took a pen and stuffed it into his mouth, treating it as a chicken leg.

"Autumn geese, geese, autumn geese fly south, spring geese fly north. To ask what season it is, see where the geese fly. " Qin Xiaolian muttered to himself. After a while, he couldn't help but laugh out loud as he took out another two peanuts and threw them into his mouth. He continued to mutter, "One for one, three for four, five for six, seven for eight. They all smell good, but they're just a bag of shyness without any money. "

On the other side, Qin Xiaoliu was murmuring happily. The examinees around her were making a ruckus. She did not have any other strengths, but her hearing was especially good. She had already thought of how to make her move, but she was interrupted by these words of Qin Xiaoliu and forgot about everything else.

"Damn it, can't you be more f * cking quiet for a while!" That exam candidate had a bad temper. He stood up and kicked at the wall, but there was only a thick wooden board blocking the way. If people like Mo Qingfeng and Dan Rong came to kick, the entire row of rooms might collapse. However, the scholar's legs were weak. Even after kicking twice, he was only able to shake the ceiling until dust fell off. Qin Xiao hurriedly covered his mouth. Soon, he heard the examiners bring away the troublesome examinees.

Qin Xiaolian patted his chest and did not dare to mutter anymore. He obediently answered the question. Otherwise, if he got kicked out, it would cause too little disgrace. If he couldn't get the top scholar, it would be a big problem.

After the exam ended, when Qin Xiao came out, he saw Dan Rong [1] driving a horse carriage to pick her up. Qin Xiao didn't stand on ceremony either, he fell asleep in the carriage with his limbs splayed out in all four directions. He couldn't sleep well in the exam grounds, so he was quite at ease. There were a few examinees who had gone through who knew how many rounds of exams and were all a bit nervous. From time to time, they would whimper and then be invited out by the examiners.

Returning to the Manor House, Mo Qingfeng had been waiting for a long time. Qin Xiao was quite touched, but the other party had actually come to ask for his soft armor. Qin Xiaoliu angrily took off the soft armor and gave it back to him. Mo Qingfeng looked at the originally white soft armor that was now covered with a layer of black ash and could not help but be covered in black lines.

After the end of the examination, Dragon Sword Villa returned to their usual noisy and rowdy days. Qin Xiao was still attracting dogs and cats to play with. No one knew just how lively he was. The maidservants were all admiring Master Qin for his generosity in private! However, he didn't know that Qin Xiaoliu wasn't relaxed. He was confident that he would be able to be on the leaderboard, and sure enough, he was listed on the leaderboard.

The Ministry of Rites sent the name list over to Nangong Kairan's desk. Mo Qingfeng saw Qin Xiaoliu's name at the bottom of the list with a smirk on his face. Sneaking into the Hall Competition was only the first step. The next step was to get the title of the top scorer in the Hall Competition. Mo Qingfeng did not know which of these people were the stakes that had been arranged beforehand, but regardless of who it was, Qin Xiaomeng was determined to win.

Mo Qingfeng knew that with Nangong KaiRan's personality, he wouldn't be able to come up with such a topic in the Hall Competition. He might be up to no good, so he had already secretly sent a message to Qin Xiaomeng asking her to prepare.

A month later, the day of the Hall Competition finally arrived. It was a rare occasion for Qin Xiao to wash himself clean and change into a purple brocade robe. Nangong Kai Ran did not fall asleep today. He pinched his fingers together as he looked down at the examinees and slowly asked: "Are these the people who were accepted by this year's contestants?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, a total of thirty people have been admitted. Please give your instructions, Your Majesty." Ming Xiaoyuan respectfully presented the name list and the papers of each examinee to the Emperor.

Nangong Kai Ran flipped through the papers and picked out a few, passing them to the Head Supervisor Chen Deng who was beside him, supporting his chin with his hand as he yawned lazily. Chen Deng understood the meaning behind his words and raised his voice. "The few examinees who have called out their names will stay behind. The remaining examinees will leave the field and be given the status of an eight rank official. The Department of Public Officials will be in charge of giving guidance." As he spoke, he began to count the names according to the papers that Nangong Kairen had selected.

The examinees who had not been able to call out their names were in an uproar as they were somewhat unwilling to accept this outcome. Amongst them, one of the brazen ones stepped forward and said, "This humble one is lacking in manners. May I ask your majesty what the standard is for selecting talents? "Why did you give me the title of a top three warrior for no reason? This humble one thinks that I have been studying hard for ten years, and am extremely talented. This humble one dares not say that I am a top student, but I am still ranked first."

Nangong Kai Ran touched his chin and thought to himself, I am the emperor, even a commoner like me is more confident and confident than me. He wasn't angry, so he laughed and said, "As a commoner, what kind of crime should I have to go against the emperor?"

That person did not jump in fright. He straightened his neck and said, "Please forgive this humble one for not being familiar with the palace rules and not knowing the crimes involved. "But this commoner did not want to go against him, and only wanted justice."

"You want justice?" Nangong Kai Ran smiled and gave Chen Deng a look. Chen Deng understood and took out a few papers that Nangong Kai Ran picked out for the exam candidate.

"Take a look for yourself. Take a look at these people's test papers and see if they are any different from yours."

The exam candidate frowned for a long time, but still couldn't see the difference. In fact, he felt that two of them weren't even worth making himself. Seeing him not react after a long time, Nangong Kai Ran coldly laughed out loud. With a 'pa' sound, he threw the rest of the exam papers down the stairs, scattering them all over the floor.

"Please look at your calligraphy, talented examinee!" A look of impatience appeared on Nangong Kairan's face, "I've studied hard for ten years and have yet to write a single word. How can I be listed as a top student?"

Hearing this, Qin Xiaoliu smiled. Sure enough, he had placed his bet on the right person!
