She pulled Yan Wuzhan away, and had the Duwei Restaurant people secretly watch Lu Chengzong's movements.
"Sis, sis ~"
After the two of them returned to the palace, Faang Yi, who had also just entered the palace, ran towards her. His eyes were bloodshot as he looked at her with excitement. The two bookkeepers behind him also had the same expression.
"So what if Faang Yi? If he doesn't pass this time, we can continue next time. It's no big deal, you're all still young!"
"No, Sis. I got first place, wuu …" Wang Xuanji and Wang Li, one of them had passed the Scholar Examination while the other had reached the 17th, wuu … "We, the three of us have all won the title of 'Golden Ranking', young mistress!
Faang Yi grabbed one of Dongfang Ning's arms and started to cry loudly. The other two people kneeled on the ground:
"This lowly one thanks young mistress for her guidance!"
"Good, good, this is a good thing. What are you all crying for? Get up, quickly get up, we need to properly celebrate. Tomorrow, find some time to burn incense to our parents and report this to the family. Come, let's talk inside!"
"Sis, I also got first place in the martial arts exam!"
"That's great, we have both civil and martial arts. Faang Yi, you're amazing!"
Dongfang Ning praised them all the way, but her encouragement and praise helped the children of this age group a lot.
"In the future, I will let the three of them roam the world on my behalf. They will show compassion for the people, help them improve their knowledge, and after five years, return to the imperial court and take on a great responsibility. When that happens, no one will dare to disobey."
"Thank you, your majesty!" Dongfang Ning replied naughtily.
The youngsters lacked experience. Letting them leave was a good idea.
"The Da Ann Nation's first martial arts talent is so young, I think it would go against everyone's expectations, right?"
The next day, when everyone knew that he was just a fifteen-year-old boy, Faang Yi became even more hotter on the topic.
"I have to remember this line of history well enough for future generations to emulate …"
"Truly amazing. This is the first genius of our Ann Nation. In the future, we'll have to learn more. Age really isn't a problem."
"Second place in the Humanities Exam was 20 years older than him."
"I heard that the one in first place was Imperial Advisor's brother, Faang Yi. Someone once said that Imperial Advisor came from the countryside, and at that time, she was surnamed Fang, but later on, she became the Grand Princess that the Dongfang Nation Lord had wandered missing for many years …"
Dongfang Ning's legend was once again dug up and discussed because of Faang Yi's reputation. Everyone looked at them with envy.
"There's one more thing that you guys don't know. Not only is Faang Yi amazing, even the servants beside him have done well. I heard they are all in the top 20."
"Oh ~"
"Looks like it's the right thing to do with martial arts. Brother, I remember you are sixth, right? After you, I'll be in seventh place …"
"Oh, it's nice to meet you, good to meet you!"
"Come, come, come. Let's go to the restaurant in front of us for a drink. No matter where we are assigned to after tomorrow's Hall Competition, it will not be in vain for us to know each other."
"Haha, in the future, when we're officials of the same court, we have to work hard too. Many commoners and officials have been recognized by the emperor. I heard that the emperor has never looked at you coldly because you were born lowly. We have a good emperor!"
The students who had prepared for so many years had finally completed a major turning point in their lives. Those who failed the entrance examination felt that their knowledge was inferior to others, but there was no sign of ridicule or dissatisfaction towards the examiners.
Qi Ziheng had changed a lot of blood in the court before the Imperial Examinations this time, so many good positions were taken out of the court. Some influential nobles naturally had their own plans for these famous people.
At the Dongfang family's residence, the second wife of the Dongfang family couldn't hold it in any longer and pestered Dongfang Yu to keep on crying.
"Master, I heard that an accomplished scholar appeared on the board this time. Hurry up and help your daughter with her appearance. First, I want you to lure her home …"
"Didn't your daughter get betrothed to a prince of Xiling City by the emperor? Are you still thinking about some literary and martial talents?!" "What an ignorant woman!"
"She said she doesn't want to marry that far. Old master, those students on the list are all poor people from the countryside. They are the best to talk to you. Quickly bring them back and cook them a rice bowl of cooked rice …"
Dongfang Yu was fuming.
"To think that you would dare to think about such a despicable thing! How did you teach your daughter? Get the hell back to the courtyard and ban her for half a month! No one is allowed to release her without me! A good mother will bring many losers, a good mother will bring many losers!"
"Dong Fang, what has made you so angry?"
Old Yan, look, she's also a daughter, why is Ning'er so obedient? As for her, all she knows is that she loves to get rich and poor. My Ning'er has always been blessed after her calamity.
Moon King said proudly.
"I know who's in first place!"
Dongfang Yu heard this. If he didn't have to find the person himself, he could consider knowing who it was.
"That's right, you are the special examiner. If you don't know who, quickly tell me who is the first martial artist in Da Ann Nation?"
Moon King was even more proud now. He had taught Faang Yi for many years, and now that this kid had gotten good results in the exam, he felt a sense of accomplishment.
"Of course it's my grandson!"
"Yan Wuzhan?"
"You are so boring. It's Dongfang Ning’er's brother, Faang Yi."
"Ah ~ that 15 year old child?"
"Yes!" "His literary talent was taught by me, but his martial arts were taught to him by that rebel. He's really a genius, and even his temper is at 70% of Ning'er's."
"This is great. Ning'er has always said that we can't let people get along with us. Now we can't even stop her. Didn't the Dongfang family's child also take fourth place? It's my eighth son, Dongfang Chen."
"You have so many children. You better learn from my family. Fourth place and first place, the difference is too great. Hahahahaha ~"
Seeing Dongfang Yu's displeased face, Moon King knew that he was depressed about the fact that the descendants of the east were not as good as the Yan Family.
"Come, come, come. Let's go invite Feng Lie onto Duwei Restaurant and drink some tea." In order to console him, he planned to go drink some wine and show off to others …
"Haven't you had enough luck? He's not your biological grandson!"
"That's still more intimate than you. Aiya, don't be angry, maybe the first place will belong to someone with the surname Dongfang next year, don't you still have a few sons? There are still plenty of opportunities to be ranked, let's go, and help Wuzhan ask around to find out what the students are thinking about this exam."
On the third day, Yan Wuzhan and the officials received the 30 examinees at the Imperial Garden. Dongfang Ning was also dragged here by him.
The top 30 rankers sat in a row according to the rankings. They listened to Qi Ziheng's long speech without turning their heads. Finally, Yan Wuzhan and Dongfang Ning’er appeared on stage. The two of them walked towards the main seats while everyone was kowtowing.
"Everyone, please rise. Today is the day of celebration for the Da Ann Nation. There is no need for us gentlemen to be so courteous."
"Thank you, your majesty!"
