The first daughter is not bad, the prince does not love

Chapter 415 Missing the No. [-] Scholar
The topic was discussed by Qingxuan and the emperor. Before that, no one knew about it, and Qingxuan had never disclosed it to Lin Siran, so it was naturally impossible to disclose it to others.

Qingxuan took out the test questions and announced on the spot: On the emperor's government and the emperor's heart.

With the limit of two sticks of incense, there was not much time, and the students sat down one after another and began to answer questions.

Everyone's reaction was watched. Some people flushed nervously, some were sweating profusely, some were biting the tip of their pens, thinking hard, and some were pale and at a loss.

But there are also those who are calm and composed, and start to write after a little thought.

The only one who was surprised was Yan Shichu, he didn't seem to be in a hurry, he ground the abrasive block calmly, then smoothed the paper, looking at the paper in front of him without squinting.

The sixth princess saw this scene through the curtain, and said anxiously: "Sister, why didn't Brother Yan start writing? There won't be enough time!"

Lin Siran was not in a hurry, and said, "Of course my brother has his reasons."

Seeing that Lin Siran was not in a hurry, the sixth princess asked, "What if Brother Yan doesn't get the number one prize?"

"If you can't get it, you can't get it. Don't talk, it's not good for others to hear it." Lin Siran whispered.

After waiting for a long time, the sixth princess was sleepy and dozed off out of boredom.

Lin Siran stared at Yan Shichu, but his eyes also swept to Luo Zifang who was behind Yan Shichu.

Luo Zifang looked confident and was not disturbed by the tense atmosphere at all.

Lin Siran raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a sneer, in this life, Luo Zifang, don't think you are so lucky to be able to get on the boat of Li Xingxu.

If he can and is lucky enough to be ranked among the top three, Lin Siran will be very happy, because it means that Lin Siran can start to deal with Luo Zifang.

She even silently hoped that Luo Zifang would have a good grade in her heart.

Yan Shichu has already started writing.

His speed was extremely fast, and he filled a piece of paper with eloquence in a short while, and then quickly changed it.

Lin Sizan found it pleasing to the eyes when he saw his smooth and smooth writing. At this moment, she felt that her brother was shining like a layer of golden light.

His self-confidence and unrestrained style really make people unable to take their eyes off him.

No wonder Huo Min fell in love with him at first sight, such a man is truly a shining existence!
Lin Siran felt boundless pride in her heart, she must have the opportunity to tell everyone that this is her brother!
The time for two sticks of incense passed quickly.

Someone hasn't finished writing yet.

Someone lowered his head in fear, panting.

Someone was trembling.

Others were full of excitement.

Only Yan Shichu remained calm from beginning to end, as if it was just an ordinary day, and he just wrote an article casually.

The article was quickly accepted.

As the main examiners, Qingxuan and the emperor began to mark the papers respectively, and then they each had to give a grade to the article.

Those who have been evaluated by them are taken down and read by the ministers present.

The students temporarily withdrew from the hall and waited outside to be summoned.

When the emperor read the article, his brows were furrowed all the time, and he smiled occasionally, then nodded slightly, and wrote his comments on the scroll.

Qingxuan's face was expressionless, she took away some articles at a glance, and read some carefully.

The hall is extremely quiet.

Lin Ruran's heart became a little nervous, she didn't know what the result would be, would the emperor like her brother's article?
The names on the scroll were all sealed and could not be seen, but when the emperor got Yan Shichu's article, Lin Siran could tell it at a glance, because Yan Shichu's words were the most familiar to her, even if she couldn't read them. She knew exactly what was written, but the handwriting couldn't fool her eyes.

Her heart almost reached her throat, like a beating drum.

Princess Six yawned and asked, "Sister, is it Brother Yan's turn? Your heart is beating so fast, I can hear it."

Lin Siran covered the sixth princess's mouth: "Shh, don't talk."

She was observing the emperor's expression.

At this moment, the emperor suddenly frowned deeply, with an extremely strange expression. Generally speaking, frowning means that he is in a bad mood.

Lin Siran was really flustered, did his brother write something that offended His Majesty?
Qingxuan didn't notice anything, and was still reading other articles on his own.

His Majesty's expression became more and more dignified, and the ministers in the hall also whispered to each other, as if they were wondering what the emperor saw.

The emperor drew a circle on the article, and then did not pass it on to Qingxuan.

Everyone was stunned.

Lin Siran's mood was more complicated.

"What's going on?" The sixth princess also felt that Lin Bian's face suddenly changed.

"Your Majesty doesn't... judge the grades." Lin Siran's heart has sunk to the bottom, why is it like this?
When Qingxuan finished reading an article and was about to pass it on to His Majesty, he also saw the article that was turned over and covered there by the emperor.

"Your Majesty..." Qing Xuan shouted.

The emperor said: "Oh...you don't need to read this article, I have my own arrangements."

Qingxuan also realized that something was wrong, but she didn't argue with the emperor in front of so many people.

Scoring continues.

Qingxuan and the emperor discussed in the remaining nine articles and selected their respective top three.

Lin Siran's heart fell into an ice cellar.

There must be something wrong, why did you only withhold my brother's article?
Qingxuan suddenly asked the emperor: "Your Majesty, I don't know how to comment on that article that was detained?"

The emperor smiled and said, "This person... I have other arrangements."

The emperor was still secretive and refused to give Qingxuan an accurate word.

"Sir, who do you think should be nominated in this section?" the emperor asked, "I think this article is very good, and the writing is brilliant."

Qingxuan said: "Although the literary talent is good, it's a pity... the whole article is mostly flattery, without practical point of view."

The emperor took out another article and asked, "What about this article? It is not only outstanding in literary talent, but also well-founded and very convincing."

Qingxuan nodded slightly, and said: "This article is not bad."

"Okay, let's choose this person as the number one scholar!" The emperor said a word, and wrote a first class on the article.

Then the No. [-] and No. [-] players were also selected.

Lin Siran gritted her teeth and clenched her fists tightly. She really wanted to rush out now and ask, why did His Majesty withhold her brother's article? Is it really so unbearable?
Absolutely impossible... It is absolutely impossible for Yan Shichu's talent and learning to fail to enter the top three. Even if he is not the number one, he will not have the opportunity to participate in the selection. There must be something wrong.

The emperor's imperial pen hand-picked it, and the imperial decree was stamped and printed. It seemed that everything was a foregone conclusion.

Ten students entered the hall, Yan Shichu still had a slight smile on his face, as if everything was under his control.

But Lin Siran was about to cry. If Yan Shichu knew that his answer sheet was withheld by the emperor and he had no chance, how would he feel?
"Sister Lin..." The sixth princess was frightened, and Lin Ruran burst into tears, which made her at a loss.

Lin Siran shook his head, wiped away his tears, and did not speak.
