Chapter 552 The name of the champion
Ye Yiheng said indifferently: "At that time, the Seventh Prince of Beiliang laughed at the princess who only answered questions about female rings and female training, and the orphan only had those words."

As soon as the words fell, many people nodded.

"Speaking still needs to be combined with the situation. His Royal Highness and Princess Beilan have a deep and profound relationship. If you say this, you are protecting each other!"

Li Yuye hates it most when people talk about his sister. He is in the limelight at the moment, so he can't care less about it. He goes out and bows his hands: "Your Majesty, the world thinks that tortoises are timid and unresponsive. For example, if you say draw a tortoise at this moment, everyone will laugh at it."

"I would like to ask the people present, have you forgotten the tortoise's character of enduring humiliation and perseverance?"

"The people who can get the rankings in the imperial examination room are Linfeng Guilong, and the adults present are also Linfeng Guilong. Why did they laugh when they heard that someone drew a turtle?"

"The tortoise is healthy and long-lived, and the tortoise and the crane are long-lived eulogies. Why do people laugh?"

Li Yuyan was very pleased to hear that His Royal Highness and elder brother protected her so much.

These two people can distinguish and are quite good at speaking.

Although both of them thought that she was probably the one to draw turtles, but this turned the situation around, and she really admired them.

A group of six people studied Li Yuyan's answer carefully.

The emperor used such a high-sounding excuse, and the official minister had no choice but to bite the bullet.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials and the Minister of the Ministry of Rites each held the red paper, and when they felt the red paper pause, they knew that the red paper had been completely uncovered.

The emperor casually raised his hand and pointed to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials: "Come and help tear it up."

The two ministers looked at each other, and read the meaning of brothers and sisters in each other's eyes.

It can be said that the names on the red paper are related to the lives of the two of them, their official careers, and even the lives of hundreds of people in their two families!
At this moment, even the emperor's eyes were fixed on the red paper. He didn't dare to breathe heavily, for fear that the name on the test paper was from Beiliang.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials quickly explained: "The minister is afraid that the scarlet letter will be torn and ruin the name written by the number one scholar."

If the name he tore out was from Beiliang, he might not be able to leave the palace today, and even if he did, he might not be able to return home.

And Yu Hao, who was proved to be a turtle by His Royal Highness, had embarrassment across his face.

The behavior of the emperor and the two ministers next to the imperial case was clearly seen by the servants, and everyone thought that the red paper of the number one scholar was indeed glued too firmly.

Even the emperor said so, and the limelight immediately turned.

When the Minister of Rites heard this order, he trembled all over.

Seeing that the emperor was smiling, the ministers knew that the champion was a scholar of Tiancheng, so they all begged the emperor to announce the life of the champion.

Seeing that the red paper was torn open at this moment, everyone was eagerly waiting.

Even now, the fact that Li Yuyan, as a woman, can participate in the imperial examination makes him quite unhappy.

The emperor's dragon face rolled, and he shouted: "You can't even tear the little red paper?"

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials grinned, laughing like crying.

Under such an order, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and the Minister of the Ministry of Rites raised their heads and closed their eyes, holding a corner of the red paper in their hands, and slowly opened it.

Whether it's a tortoise or a half bastard, they're just having fun.

The two ministers opened their eyes one after another, and the name that caught their eyes was Li Yuyan, who had just had a verbal dispute!

In fact, what Li Yuyan didn't know was that in the eyes of Ye Yiheng and Li Yuye, her talent and learning were unmatched.

Yu Haoqiong hurriedly walked to the imperial case. Not only that, he also brought five staff members who had participated in the imperial examination.

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief, and their eyes signaled the servant to tell the emperor to open his eyes.

Neither the Minister of Officials nor the Minister of Rites dared to strike first, the emperor ordered in a cold voice: "Tear it up, both of you!"

Zheng Liqi was completely stunned, the champion was actually Li Yuyan.

Ye Yiheng said that he deliberately distorted and turned the truth upside down, which he really couldn't bear.

A woman beat so many men and won the first prize!

Two of the four corners of the red paper were uncovered, and the two immediately looked at each other, swallowed in unison, and sweat broke out on their foreheads almost at the same time.

As soon as the words were written, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and the Minister of the Ministry of Rites each unveiled a corner of the red paper.

I don't know if it's because of shaking hands or other reasons, but the Minister of the Ministry of Officials couldn't tear the red paper.

The servant rubbed the emperor's forehead with his fingers vigorously.

The emperor held up Li Yuyan's test paper: "If the Seventh Prince of Beiliang doesn't believe it, you can take a look at how Bei Lan answered the test paper!"

But the emperor's order cannot be violated, and the Minister of Rites moved his hand tremblingly.

The emperor didn't dare to look at it, so he quietly leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and pretended to rest, and raised his hand to ask the servant to massage his forehead.

The ministers and examinees who were called Linfeng Guilong by Li Shizi said yes one after another.

Shame!
But no matter how firmly the red paper sticks, it can be torn off. The emperor said in a deep voice, "Tear it off."

After a while, he came to the side of Minister of Rites.

At this moment, he doesn't want to tear it up either.

The emperor sighed inwardly, it seemed that the list of champions had to be announced.

He scraped it several times with his nails, but he didn't scratch a crack.

The Minister of Rites nodded hurriedly: "Exactly, this is how I feel too!"

Suddenly hearing Changshou, the emperor immediately sat upright: "What Li Shizi said is true!"

The red paper sticks quite firmly.

The emperor glanced at them, thinking in his heart why they couldn't tear it apart, he was naturally clear.

Never felt that the royal case in Xiande Hall was so close to where he was standing.

Only the members of the Beiliang mission looked like they were the only ones in the world.

After the silence, all kinds of praises, congratulations, and mixed voices sounded.

The loudest of them was Yu Haoqiong's questioning voice: "How can a woman become the number one scholar?"

The hall of Xiande was eerily quiet.

Many Tiancheng people in the hall held their breath following the emperor.

Reluctantly stretching out his hand to pull the tray together, his fingers touched the red paper, the emperor raised his hand, and said to the Minister of Rites, "You tear it up."

The emperor understood, opened his eyes suddenly, and immediately laughed loudly, saying repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay!"

The emperor said: "The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the imperial examinations. The Jinshi who come out are all given official positions by the Ministry of Officials. It is right to ask Aiqing to come here."

The emperor raised his hand happily, and the servant sang loudly, "No. [-] Scholar, Li Yuyan!"

Soon, Yu Haoqiong shook his spirits again, and clasped his fists at the emperor: "Your Majesty, please announce who will win the number one prize!"

Dissatisfaction and disbelief surged in her heart. What surprised her was that she was a little proud deep in her heart.

Could it be that as Li Yuyan said, women are no worse than men, Li Yuyan can do it, why can't Zheng Liqi do it?
Thinking of this, when Zheng Liqi looked at Li Yuyan again, the inexplicable hatred dissipated a lot.

In all fairness, at this moment, she really admires her!
Ye Jiu laughed heartily, and immediately hugged Li Yuyan: "Ayan, you are so amazing!"

Li Yuyan laughed along.

At this moment, the sacrificial wine line came to Li Yuyan, and bowed deeply: "Great kindness, princess!"

His old life depends entirely on the princess!
