Song Menghua: At the beginning, ask to marry Sheng Minglan

He asked curiously.

"Do you know why?"

"It can't just be because of competitiveness, right?"

No one spoke.

It seems that Zhang Dun's specific thoughts are not even known to his own nephew.

"okay."

"Yuan Ruo, don't worry about Zhang Zihou."

"In my opinion, you should worry more about yourself."

Zeng Bu suddenly said this sentence bluntly.

Because of the relationship between Qi Heng and Zeng Gong, he will not be alienated from Qi Heng, and he will say what he has.

however.

His words not only made Qi Heng puzzled, but even Zeng Gong, Su Shi and others beside him were puzzled.

"What's the meaning of this?"

"What is there to worry about, Yuan Ruo?"

Zeng Bu was stunned for a moment.

Perhaps it was the unanimous stares in everyone's eyes that made him a little uncomfortable.

He reluctantly said, "Don't you all have heard of it?"

"There seems to be a saying these days."

"Shuo Yuanruo is unlikely to become the number one scholar in this discipline no matter what."

Zeng Gong frowned suddenly.

"' 〃 Where did you hear that nonsense?"

"If he, Qi Yuan, can't be the champion, who else can be the champion?"

No matter how much he said he would not admit defeat, but in his heart, he and Su Shi were convinced by Qi Heng.

With their usual pride, even if they were willing to admit defeat, who else could overwhelm Qi Yuanruo?

Qi Heng was quite ashamed.

He just wanted to say that the result of the palace examination cannot be asserted.

It's normal not to be the champion.

——After all, the real No. [-] in Jiayou's second year was here.

But think about it.

He also wanted to know what Zeng Bu had heard, so he didn't speak.

Zeng Bu quickly explained.

"I can't remember either."

"It's just vague. A few days ago, Ercheng, Zhang Zai and others were discussing scriptures and preaching in Daxiangguo Temple. It seems that someone in the same year said something similar."

"Probably, some people don't allow Yuan Ruo to become the number one scholar."

Now the problem is serious.

I didn't take the exam.

He dared someone to say this.

What do you mean?

Can he still manipulate the results of the imperial examination?

Gu Tingye immediately asked in a deep voice: "The same year?"

"Is that the person on the list?"

"Do you remember which one it was?"

This is undoubtedly the only issue that everyone pays special attention to.

a time.

Everyone stared at Zeng Bu with burning eyes.

Zeng Bu frowned deeply.

As if trying to remember.

"During our discussion that day... we talked about this year's big exam."

"Zhang Zai and I both believe that the number one scholar must be Yuan Ruo."

"Can--"

"Oh, right."

"It's Ouyang Xu."

"He casually said at the time that Yuan Ruo was afraid that it would be difficult for him to get the first prize, but we didn't really take his words to heart."

"It's just that I saw Yuan Ruo at this time, so I mentioned it casually."

Ouyang Xu!

The name made everyone startled, and then gradually became serious.

Both were Jinshi in the same year.

Moreover, Ouyang Xuqiuwei ranked first in the list, even if they were not familiar with this person, they must have heard of him.

Especially Gu Tingye.

He suddenly remembered that on the day when the rankings were released, Qi Heng had specifically asked about such a matter.

"Yuan Ruo."

"I remember that on the day when the list was announced, the Gao family's list captured the son-in-law, and it seems that this Ouyang Xu was the one who was arrested?"

Qi Heng nodded casually.

This is interesting.

In other words, (Li Qian's) Ouyang Xu's source of information is likely to be the Gao family.

The Gao family is also the natal family of Princess Yong Gao Taotao.

Could it be understood that it was the news that Prince Yong's Mansion revealed to him?

He seemed to vaguely understand something.

but.

By now, Zeng Gong, Su Shi and others also understood.

In the conflict between Qi Heng and Yong Wang Zhao Zongshi, Su Shi was not there, but Zeng Gong was there. They all knew that the two sides had torn faces.

"No reason!"

"How dare he intervene in the court's talent ceremony because of his personal grievances!"

Zeng Gong was immediately angry.

Su Zhe looked at Qi Heng quite calmly.

"Perhaps... he is just talking nonsense?"

Zhang Heng also nodded.

"I also think he's probably trying to make fun of it."

"For things like the palace examination, the final result still depends on the officials."

No matter whether it's a lie or a plan, it doesn't matter if it's really a plan.

Qi Heng didn't want them to get involved in the affairs between him and Zhao Zongshi, or Zhao Zongze.

He smiled lightly.

"Yes."

"Don't think about it too."

"Is it possible for them to intervene in the imperial court's grand examination?"

Seeing that he didn't even care about it, Zeng Gong and others calmed down.

Gu Tingye hesitated to speak.

But realizing that Qi Heng didn't want to talk more about it with them, he could only keep silent.

Su Shi pondered.

"Whether it's true or false, don't worry about it."

"Yuan Ruo, you have to show all your strength."

"You must not lose the title of champion."

Qi Heng laughed.

"no problem."

"All of you are not allowed to release water, or else...you won't be happy if I win."

Zeng Gong, Su Shi and others all admired him.

After hearing such gossip, he can still be so calm and unhurried, which is really amazing.

"do not worry!"

"We will not release water!"

"It is precisely to beat you in this match!"
