Chapter 234 Meeting the Young Master

Many people present felt their faces were burning, but they could not refute that they were no match for Gongsun Shou.

The people under the high platform have begun to discuss quietly.

"Is there really fraud in this imperial examination? Otherwise, why are those who passed the examination not as good as those who failed?"

"Needless to say, someone must be practicing favoritism. Haven't you heard that some examiners even charged millions of taels?"

"Asshole, it's these dog officials who ruined the foundation of the imperial court."

Faced with such a scene, Princess Yushu remained calm, as if the chaotic sounds around her were simply noise to her and not worth taking seriously.

Seeing this scene, Yang Liang secretly admired her. After all, there were many people in the world, but not everyone could have Princess Yushu's magnanimity.

She said with a smile: "Prince Tuoba's words are wrong. Playing chess is just a trivial matter. We, the students of the Dasheng Dynasty, study the art of governing the country. For example, Prince Tuoba, do you know how to play chess?"

"This……"

Tuoba dragged his words for a moment. He had been riding horses and archery since elementary school. How could he understand these black and white principles?

"That's all. This does not prevent Prince Tuoba from being a hero."

Tuoba Tuo felt a little proud to be flattered like this, and she was also a beauty.

He still had his hands behind his back and said, "In that case, we might as well start competing on the next item."

Princess Yushu nodded: "What is Master Tuoba planning to compete with next?"

Tuoba Tuo discussed with the people behind him again, and then said: "We can't tell the winner in calligraphy and painting for a while, so why don't we each choose one person and compete in archery. What do you think, Her Majesty the Princess?"

Princess Yushu frowned. She knew that these Rong people grew up on the grasslands and dealt with horseback riding and archery all day long, and the talented people in the Central Plains were inevitably a little pampered.

In this round, if they were to compete, I am afraid they would not be the opponents of these barbarians.

But he has already lost two games before. If he loses this game again, he will be laughed at by everyone in the world.

Although Huang Shoufu presided over this imperial examination, he would be disgraced if such a situation happened.

But if you can handle this matter safely, it will be a great achievement.

She smiled and said: "Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. There are neither arrows nor targets on this high platform. It is not a place to compete in martial arts. In my opinion, we should compete in calligraphy and painting first, and then discuss other matters."

Tuoba Tuo immediately shook his head in denial. Now he had realized how powerful the eldest princess was.

It is said that Princess Yushu was the thirteenth daughter of Wang Baxian. She also had a sister who was married to Emperor Hui. However, after Wang Baxian rebelled and usurped the throne, the life or death of that woman was unknown.

The previous daughters fled to death and failed to stay. In the end, the thirteenth daughter became the eldest princess.

He is indeed a chicken thief.

That's right, without this chicken thief, it would be impossible to live today.

He understood that the evaluation of calligraphy and painting was a very subjective matter. When the time came, Princess Yushu insisted that there was nothing she could do about it.

"Princess, let's compete in archery first. As for the rest, it doesn't matter if we don't compete."

"Prince, you just said six things, how can you compare and not compare? We are different from you barbarians. The Dasheng Dynasty is trustworthy."

Tuoba Tuo was so angry that he vomited blood, how can you still be trustworthy? You have no bottom line at all, okay!

The people below gradually understood. Princess Yushu clearly did not dare to compete.

No matter how eloquent she is, she confuses right and wrong, but everyone is not a fool, and they have understood it by now.

"Your Highness, why are we afraid of them? How can we be afraid of them?"

"They are just a group of barbarians. If you don't have the guts, let me go up and try!" The people below were already shouting, and the chaotic sounds reached the stage.

Tuoba Tuo admired Princess Yushu a little. There were many people who had no bottom line, but at the same time, there were only a handful of people who could maintain their grace.

Although Princess Yushu disguised herself well on the surface, she was already in a mess inside.

She already regretted accepting what happened today. This should have been handled by Huang Shoufu.

I also blame myself for being too greedy for merit and already a little hungry.

It was good now that he was on the receiving end of the fire, but Huang Shoufu refused to show up.

Now that the barbarian Tuoba Tuo is aggressive, how should he end it?

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from behind: "Your Highness, why don't you let the students give it a try!"

Princess Yushu turned her head and when she saw the person clearly, she was suddenly startled.

The other party was dressed in short clothes, more than eight feet tall, with eyebrows dyed like ink and piercing eyes.

After seeing his appearance clearly, Princess Yushu's eyes suddenly lit up and she said in disbelief: "You are still alive!"

"Thank you for your concern, Princess. The student saved his life."

"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive." Princess Yushu said, "You know, I've been worried a lot these days."

Tuoba Tuo narrowed his eyes and was suddenly shocked, saying, "It's you! You even stole my money."

"What are you talking about!" Yang Liang immediately retorted: "I am the number one scholar in my undergraduate program. How could I steal your things? Don't destroy someone's innocence out of thin air."

Tuoba Tuo frowned, wondering if he had remembered it wrong, or that they were not the same person at all.

Logically speaking, a top pick shouldn't steal.

They all read the books of sages and accepted death. It was more uncomfortable for them to steal things than to be beheaded.

"So you are Li Qingyang."

Tuoba Tuo frowned. He had seen the red list posted by the court and knew who the number one scholar was, but he did not know that Yang Liang did not participate in the imperial examination at all.

Now not only Tuoba Tuo, but Cui Ming and others also dislike Yang Liang.

They knew how Yang Liang became the number one scholar. Originally, everyone thought he was a dead man, but for the sake of Princess Yushu's face, no one cared about it.

But he didn't expect that he came back alive. Then this number one scholar is not just a false name, but a real benefit, which makes people feel dissatisfied.

Some people even began to wonder whether Yang Liang and Princess Yushu had hooked up. Nothing happened to Yang Liang from the beginning.

Judging from what Princess Yushu did today, one has to doubt her character.

Yang Liang cupped his hand and said: "The student is not talented, so I am willing to take the competition for the princess."

Princess Yushu said: "You just came back and haven't rested yet. Why don't you take good care of yourself first?"

This is a pool of muddy water, and Princess Yushu doesn't want Yang Liang to step into it. Of course, it would be a great achievement if he could resolve the matter properly.

Yang Liang didn't particularly want to stand out, but he also knew that if he couldn't show a certain ability and wanted to convince the public, it might not be easy to win the title of No. 1 pick.

Moreover, the system also gave itself a task to solve this trouble by itself.
