Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

The results of the top three finally came out. Zack and George were on the top three list as expected. However, when the herald went to report the good news and send congratulations, George hadn't come back.

Although Zack was one of the top three, he had to get the first place in the final imperial examination if he wanted to be the number one scholar. He was quite confident.

It was not surprising that Zack and George were among the top three this time, but there was another one whose result was beyond anyone's expectations. Many people, even Lucas and Carlson, knew this man. He was a nephew of the empress, Kenneth Huang.

They all knew about Kenneth Huang's actual ability. Nobody thought of him as likely to be one of the top three. Everyone exchanged glances and then stared at Felix in unison.

Felix pulled a long face. At that time, he had just asked Charles to give Kenneth Huang a good ranking, but he didn't expect Kenneth Huang to be one of the top three. If he took the final imperial examination, he would be exposed, and then Felix would be in trouble.

"Why are you looking at me? I'm also very curious about how he could have such an impressive result. Since when has he become so brilliant that he could rank among the top three?" Felix said calmly, cursing Charles bitterly in his heart.

"Is Kenneth a dark horse?" Carlson asked in surprise. He ranked only 69th, and Kenneth Huang unexpectedly entered the top three list even though he was not as learned as Carlson. This was really a miracle.

"Maybe he really made a huge effort. Your Highn

enneth's paper."

Franklin took the paper, quickly glanced through it and said, "It's a good one. It deserves to be one of the top three."

"Really?" As everyone handed round Kenneth Huang's examination paper and checked it, they found that it was very good, and his analysis was to the point. However, there were many people there who knew Kenneth Huang. He was good at gambling, but he was a bad scholar. No one who knew him could believe that he could write such an exquisite essay.

The emperor scanned the essay and asked, "What do you think, everyone?"

"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, a prodigal who returns is more precious than gold. Kenneth's usual way of life was no credit to him, it's true. But in order to avoid doing him an injustice, it's only fair to summon him and confront him here. If he can really write such an essay, it's all the better for our state." Franklin was always a slick talker. Even though he knew there was something fishy about this matter, he knew how to smooth it over with euphemism.

"I agree," many ministers echoed.

The emperor was also unsure what to make of this. He had heard about the empress's nephew. He didn't think of Kenneth Huang as the sort of person to write such an excellent essay.

"Someone."

"Your Majesty."

"Summon Kenneth to the Imperial Palace, and Charles too. He is one of the chief examiners, so he must be here. Who are the other two in the top three?" the emperor said cautiously.

"Your Majesty, they are Grand Secretary Franklin's son Zack, and George from the Kong Clan in the south."
