Chapter 225 Outside Gongyuan (2)
The market outside Gongyuan is still very lively at night, the wine shops and stalls are in full swing, and there are people sitting inside and outside.
Many candidates were still unwilling to leave after leaving the examination room. They would rather sit outside the Gongyuan, eat and drink, and wait for the final winner. When they heard the news that the last few people had come out, many people dropped their hands. The wine glasses in his hands immediately stood up and swarmed away.
It’s just that they don’t know that the person they want to see is already sitting among them.
In the middle of Desheng, Liu Sheng, who had not eaten for a day, was concentrating on a large bowl of haggis soup.
The rich and hot soup, the fragrant and tangy meat, one bowl of it will make your whole body warm.
Liu Sheng put down the empty bowl, breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered another bowl of mutton noodles.
Looking at the other three people, Gao Yisheng and Yu Huan showed no signs of eating at all. Even Senior Sister Lin, who had always been polite and polite, was eating anxiously.
Obviously they are all starving.
Liu Sheng looked around, but unfortunately he didn't see Wang Dongdong, Senior Sister Qu, Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Zhong. He didn't know how they did in the exam.
For the exam, she brought nothing with her, which fully met the requirements of the exam room, so she couldn't contact them with spiritual messages.
"What's wrong?" Lin Shuying finally finished eating and was wiping his mouth gracefully with a handkerchief. Seeing Liu Sheng looking around, he couldn't help but be curious.
So Liu Sheng explained the reason, and Lin Shuying nodded in understanding: "It's okay, let's get together when the rankings are released in a few days."
When it came to "releasing the rankings", Liu Sheng thought of just now After what the official said, he couldn't help but ponder: "Now it sounds like the ranking is not what we thought."
"What do you mean, isn't it ranked according to belief value?" Gao Yisheng really didn't understand. , he scratched his head with a puzzled look on his face.
But other than him, they are all sensible people.
"Comprehensive ranking means that other factors will be added for ranking." Liu Sheng reminded.
"That's reasonable. It can't be just the four of us, right?" Gao Yisheng said matter-of-factly.
"It is reasonable, but what specific factors are added?" Lin Shuying's eyes darkened slightly, "There will be no public announcement for the time being."
"So...is it possible...that the one who ranks at the top is not Must it be us?" Yu Huan's round fleshy face was a little pale, and his thick, black and caterpillar-like eyebrows were wrinkled.
Liu Sheng and Lin Shuying looked at each other and did not dare to express their opinions.
I always feel that there are too many unknowns in this imperial examination.
At this time, the mutton noodles that Liu Sheng had just added and the grilled lamb chops that everyone ordered were brought to the table.
Liu Sheng hurriedly ate the noodles while they were still hot, and took a mutton chop in her other hand to chew on.
I always feel that I have consumed a lot of energy today and I can’t get enough no matter how much I eat.
"So, don't you think it's strange?" Gao Yisheng grabbed a large piece of lamb chop and said vaguely with a greasy mouth.
"Brother Gao, when you say strange, do you mean this new pattern that has no warning at all?" Yu Huan asked, blinking.
"Yes..." Before Gao Yisheng finished speaking, a student with sharp ears at the table next to him came over and said without noticing anything, "That's right! After ten years of studying hard in the cold window, All in vain!"
"I was there We didn’t even know what to do, but we were killed by the monster!”
“If this is a combination of the literary test and the martial arts test, then what we have learned requires a certain level of cultivation to be used! Ah, how can a mortal body fight against monsters? ”
"Also, it is obvious that the technical subjects and strategies we have been studying so hard are all written skills, and all we have learned is how to govern the country! But today, we are suddenly asked to practice it. It is still a missionary. How can we do it!" Sit down! The student next to me also said.
Liu Sheng and others agree with this.
Although they also made it to the thirtieth day, except for Liu Sheng who relied on plug-ins and had his own ideas, the others came here in a daze.
“But the imperial court has announced changes to the exam content. Don’t you even read it?” a woman asked in surprise.
“But the change was too hasty, wasn’t it?” Other students disagreed. "I know, I know, but do you know what to do? How many faith points did you get in the end?" Some students were not happy with the woman's attitude, so they spoke with a choked voice.
"It's not bad, tens of thousands of faith points." The woman said slightly proudly.
After hearing this, the others were speechless and looked at the woman with envy.
You must know that tens of thousands of faith points cannot be obtained casually.
"Furthermore, this examination was decided by His Majesty himself. Are you dissatisfied with His Majesty?" What the woman said caused an uproar. All the candidates quickly said they did not dare and then went their separate ways. Leave.
After hearing this, Liu Sheng couldn't help but turn around and look at the woman, and found that the woman was Ling Yuke.
There was no one else around her. She was sitting alone by the window, probably drinking by herself.
He didn't go home so late and even drank by himself...
Liu Sheng strongly disagreed with this and felt like an eldest sister inexplicably.
“This classmate sounds very powerful...but why did he come out early?” asked a candidate dressed as a scribe.
Ling Yuke was good-looking and she was alone. Many people had noticed her and knew that she had been sitting here for a long time, but she never found the person she wanted to wait for.
"Huh, I lost to Mr. Wen. Unlike you, Mr. Wen has great skills, so it's not unfair to lose to him." Ling Yuke said, her pretty face flushed, and she didn't know what she thought of. , red lips slightly curled up in a shy smile.
A man has always been unhappy with the public's praise of Wen Xuanning, and said sarcastically: "Yes, yes, your Wen Xuanning is the most powerful, but the result is that it ended prematurely like us."
"If you are really powerful, how come you were kicked out of the illusion before the end?"
"What did you say?" Ling Yuke stood up and shouted anxiously, "How is it possible? How could Mr. Wen not be the final candidate? How could anyone defeat him? ”
Liu Sheng answered silently: Me.
Ling Yuke originally wanted to wait at this inevitable place, and did not want to be crowded with a bunch of people to pick her up, which would lose her image.
It would be better to wait until Wen Xuanning passes by. She "just happens" to be lying on the railing, tilting her head to show her beautiful face from the best angle.
"This... I probably saw him coming out as soon as the Youshi hour passed." The examinee next to him was a little confused by Ling Yuke's yelling.
"I saw it too. As soon as I went out, I was picked up by a gorgeous cloud sedan. It turned out to be the precious son of the chief minister's family."
Ling Yuke hurriedly drank down the drink, then quickly stood up, threw down the money for the drink and meal, and ran away.
But after running a few steps and standing on the street, she suddenly realized that she couldn't just rashly go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to look for him in the middle of the night, right?
How embarrassing!
And he should have rested now.
For such a proud man to lose, it must be a big blow to him, and he doesn’t want to see anyone at this time.
Ling Yuke thought, feeling a little proud.
Why are you so considerate of others? Humph, daddy keeps saying that she is not gentle and considerate enough, and doesn't look at those people who are worthy of her gentle and considerate treatment?
Forget it, let him stay alone and calm down tonight. Tomorrow, let his father pretend to visit Wen Shoufu, and he will go with him to comfort him.
Mr. Wen should be happier after seeing her, right?
Thinking of this, Ling Yuke blushed with embarrassment, silently thinking about what to say and what to give, and anxious to go home to see what sachets and clothes and shoes she had made. Yes, do you want to add some formations to it?
But she didn't know that Wen Xuanning was not in the chief minister's house at this time.
