Chapter 113
He wouldn't let himself block his way out.

"Okay." Qin Lu was also worried that Qin Tieniu was thinking too much. After all, it is no problem to pass the imperial examination according to his ability, but if someone is playing tricks behind his back, then he is not sure.

In the afternoon, Qin Tieniu went to attend the palace examination, and Qin Lu was waiting outside.

After almost three hours, Qin Lu became more and more anxious as he waited. Qin Tieniu walked over from the crowd. When he saw Qin Lu from afar, he quickened his pace, "Daughter-in-law..."

"Tie Niu, how are you coming out?" Qin Lu wanted to restrain herself from being so nervous, but couldn't help blinking her eyes a few times.

It was these few times that Qin Tieniu couldn't help laughing, "Look at what you're worried about, it's all over."

"Passed?"

Qin Lu couldn't believe it, and just passed, "What is it?"

"No. [-]."

Just as unbelievable as Qin Lu is Qin Tieniu. He is still silent now. Originally, he wanted to go back to Beijing to find a way to deal with King Yi in the future. He didn't expect King Yi to let him pass. Palace test, what do you think?

Qin Tieniu knew very well that King Yi had no good intentions.

"Tie Niu, what are you worried about?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the second place may become an official in the court."

Qin Tieniu said what he was most worried about. If he really entered the court, those people would not be able to hide even if they wanted to.

"It's okay, there is always a way." Qin Lu smiled at Qin Tieniu, advised him to be safe when he came, and then dragged him back to the village.

Now that Qin Tieniu has won the second place, the village will get news soon, and he has to deal with those snobs again.

When they returned to the village, Qin Erzhuang waited anxiously in the village. Seeing them coming back, he quickly got up, "Daughter, Tieniu, how are you back?"

"It's done."

"It's done?" Qin Erzhuang's heart was beating fast, and his heart beat faster when he heard it was done, "Did you pass the exam?"

"Well, I passed the imperial examination, and I'm second in the list."

"Really?" Qin Erzhuang blinked his eyes excitedly, his dark face was flushed.

Qin Lu glanced at Qin Tieniu before looking at Qin Erzhuang and nodding, "Why are you lying to me? Of course it's true."

"That's great, Tieniu has finally come out on top..." Qin Erzhuang was about to cry, and if Qin Lu hadn't stopped him, he probably would have gone out to yell.

Qin Lu smiled helplessly, "Father, don't be so high-profile, let's talk about it after the list is made."

"well."

Knowing that he was too excited, Qin Erzhuang smiled foolishly, "It's because Dad is too excited, too excited."

After comforting Qin Erzhuang, Qin Lu went directly to the fire room to prepare meals, "Tie Niu, take a rest, I will cook some meals."

"it is good."

The family here is happy, although Qin Tieniu and Qin Lu seem to have doubts in their hearts, Naihe just mutters in their hearts but doesn't show anything on the surface, and the one who is happier than them at this time is Yi king.

After returning to the capital from the town, he sent several groups of people, whether they were dealing with Qin Tieniu or Qin Lu, to reply on May [-]st. He didn't need to think about it to know that these people died unexpectedly.

He had underestimated this fool before, but now letting him pass the imperial examination is his next step.

Just when King Yi was thinking about how to make Qin Tieniu's life worse than death, there was a knock on the door, he frowned slightly, and after a while, "Come in."

Followed by a touch of official uniform, he entered the room, "My lord, according to your instructions, I have already made Qin Tieniu the second place in the list."

"Very well, continue to send people to stare at him, and make sure he doesn't leave his sight for a moment."

"Yes, but..." This person is one of the invigilators of the imperial examination. He is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. He has a lot of status in the court, but no one knows that he is the king of Yi.

Generally, this kind of bachelor is very elegant and disdains to participate in court disputes, and he has always shown himself as a neutral faction. Who would have thought that he would have been the righteous king long ago?

King Yi looked back at the bachelor, "Academician Xu, do you have something to say?"

"My lord, that second-best face looks at..."

"It's just a familiar face, why do you still think this country bumpkin is a prince?" Yi Wang looked at Academician Xu with a half-smile, and he quickly shook his head, "I don't mean that, but just as you said, I feel familiar."

"Well, if it's okay, you can go back first."

"Yes."

After Academician Xu left, King Yi also left. Not long after, he arrived at the backyard of the palace. There was a hidden compartment here. He pressed the switch and walked through a long narrow road, and soon came to the back of a mountain. There is a big training ground on the top of the mountain. When everyone saw him, they stopped practicing immediately, "This subordinate has seen the prince."

"Everyone is welcome, I have worked hard for you during this time."

"Swear allegiance to the prince to the death."

"it is good."

King Yi said some words of encouragement to the army, and he followed the leader into the hut on the side of the mountain, "My lord, what happened? Why are you here?"

In the past, he would not come here in person, but now that he made a sudden visit, the leader was naturally a little worried.

But King Yi shook his head and smiled, "No problem, I just want to see you."

This is the secret base he spent thousands of dollars to build, and it is the key to his success. He has been staring at that idiot all this time, but he didn't take much care of it. Now that the idiot is at his mercy, he has nothing to worry about.

"It's fine, my lord, you can rest assured that the brothers have been practicing day and night, and now even the most capable guards in the imperial city may not be their opponents."

The leader showed off to King Yi for a while, but it wasn't bragging. He practiced every day, and naturally he made progress.

"Well, give some rewards to the brothers, you have worked hard during this time."

"My lord, our lives are yours. We will not hesitate to do what you ask us to do." The leader stood up and knelt down to King Yi, as if this was the only way to show his loyalty.

In fact, King Yi never doubted them. Over the years, he gave them good food and drink, and even saved their lives at the beginning. To them, he was their savior.

"Okay, I trust you, get up."

"Thank you, my lord."

After leaving the training ground, King Yi visited some officials who supported him. When he returned to his mansion, it was already dark, and he thought of the first time he saw that fool.

He always thought that he was dead, that the most powerful contender for the throne was dead, and that the throne could only be his.

But he never thought that this man could escape in such a war, "We'll see who wins, we'll just see this game."

Let him be in charge of the court, let him be under his nose, now that he is the king, he is only the second in the list, and his arms can't twist his thighs after all.

When he made this move, he had already thought about letting him die silently in full view.

Perhaps because of these thoughts, King Yi slept very peacefully that night.
