"What did you say? His Majesty didn't show up today, and he decided by drawing lots to decide the top pick, the second pick, and the top pick?" Not to mention that the prince who asked the question looked in disbelief, and so did the eunuch responsible for summoning the order.

It is said that the Holy Will is unpredictable, and this year’s Holy Will is simply outrageous.

Li Huayan stepped forward and whispered something to the eunuch. His originally bright eyes dimmed little by little after learning the result.

She turned around and shook her head at everyone: "Let's draw lots."

Except for Sun Yangxue and Wang Qianfeng who were at the front, everyone else could not hide their joy. They could not compete with the written imperial examination. The result of this imperial examination was already determined long ago. But now, His Majesty asked them to draw lots to determine the top three. .

This undoubtedly leaves the selection of talents to God's will. Since it is God's will, it must rely on luck.

A one in 10 chance is better than none.

"I'll go first!" The first contestant stood up first. The excitement on her face was clearly visible. She rolled up her sleeves, opened them tightly, and nervously put her sweaty palms into the box. Put it inside.

"What's the number?" Someone urged her impatiently, asking her to unfold the note and take a look.

"Fourth... How can it be fourth? There is only one missing, only one missing..." The man's ecstatic expression suddenly stopped, his eyes were fixed on the note, and his sharp eyes seemed to The paper had a hole poked through it.

Then fill it up so that the fourth place becomes the third place.

She lowered her head in despair and leaned against the pillar, still muttering to herself: "Just one person missing, just one missing..."

Su Yu was in the third state. She stood behind the crowd, folding her arms, drooping her eyelids, as if she wasn't very interested in everything around her, and even yawned out of boredom.

One after another, more students came forward to draw lots, including Wang Qianfeng and Sun Yangxue.

Amelia Su listened to the conversation in her head, her eyes calm.

"System, there are two left, which one should I draw?"

Wang Qianfeng was lucky and got the third place. This means that she has got the third flower, so the remaining two are left.

Either the No. 1 pick or the No. 2 pick.

She doesn't want second place, she just wants to be number one.

Li Huayan, the prince, and the students were all staring at her, and Sun Yangxue felt that their back was about to be penetrated by them.

She stood hesitantly and began to look for the direction of Su Yu.

"Why isn't she anxious? Doesn't Su Yu not want to be the number one scholar?" Sun Yangxue's firm determination was now a little relaxed.

The system didn't care about pretending to be reserved and cold, and quickly lied, without even typing up the draft: "The lottery thing is a lie. Su Yu has colluded with Li Huayan a long time ago. The lottery box was tampered with by them. Even if Su Yu If you are the last one to draw lots, you will also get the top pick."

Sun Yangxue had no doubt that she had it, and she asked skillfully: "How much will be deducted?"

"You have deducted forty years, do you want to continue?"

"Of course, I've come this far, how could I give up?" Sun Yangxue curled her lips with a look of determination on her face.

The system told her: "Throw away this one in your hand and grab the other one."

Sun Yangxue grabbed the lot, but did not open it in a hurry. Instead, she waited until Su Yu grabbed it and asked her with interest: "What are you?"

Amelia Su glanced at her lazily, and then looked at the entire audience. Everyone was waiting for an answer.

So, she raised her lips and said to Sun Yangxue, "Why don't we spread it out together."

"Okay." Sun Yangxue put aside all her malice and smiled at Su Yu.

If an uninformed person saw this look, they might mistakenly think that the two of them were good friends.

Sun Yangxue was not in a hurry to look at his own, but leaned over to look at Su Yu's note. The smile she had prepared had already appeared, but after seeing the word "number one scholar", it froze on her face.

God knows, she almost shouted out of control. Although there was a system to help cheat, she still let Su Yu get the top prize note.

"Why?!"

The students gathered together and congratulated the two of them, one was the top scholar and the other was the second.

"Lin'an is really a place of outstanding people. You two talented women came out at the same time. Now one is number one and the other is second. It's really great."

"In the future, I will have to rely on the support of the Number One Scholar."

"Congratulations, Su Yu, you are the top pick." Wang Qianfeng came over and patted Su Yu on the shoulder: "This is God's will."

Everyone could only see Su Yu, who won the top prize, but turned a blind eye to her and her why.

Sun Yangxue watched Su Yu being surrounded, and Li Huayan walked down, saying that he would hold a banquet in the palace to entertain the newly admitted champion.

Everyone was delighted and she was left alone.

"Why?!!!" Sun Yangxue, who had nowhere to vent, could only yell at the system.

"You lied to me, you lied to me... You deliberately let Su Yu get the top prize note, why!!!"

The system began to pretend to be a corpse, and no matter how Sun Yangxue shouted, it remained silent.

This is not because the system is timid and scared, but it is in trouble at this moment.

Probably because it smuggled into the small world, Tiandao discovered it, and now its energy is being rapidly devoured by an external invisible force.

The lifespan and luck gained from Sun Yangxue were all sucked away, and it had to close its senses to barely survive.

Now is not the time to negotiate with Sun Yangxue, it needs time to slow down...

The new No. 1 Scholar was too busy being led by Li Huayan to do some worldly things in the palace. First of all, he went to see His Majesty the Emperor.

His Majesty is now sixty years old, and his face is covered with wrinkles, but his eyes are not cloudy. When he looks straight at him, he has a sense of oppression that can penetrate people's hearts.

She had a good impression of Amelia Su and waved her over to have a few words with her alone.

Su Yu listened while chatting with Xiao Qi: "What an old fox. His Royal Highness does not offend both sides. He seems to be impartial and uses the method of drawing lots to decide the number one pick, but in fact he is tampering behind the scenes."

The words on the last two notes were the same, with only the word "second place" written on them. As for why the note in her hand turned into the word "number one" in the end, it was all inserted by an inconspicuous student standing next to her. Palm of the hand.

The emperor actually placed his own personnel in this year's imperial examination.

The emperor may have already known about her affairs with the Seventh Highness, as well as between Sun Yangxue and the prince, and between Wang Qianfeng and the prime minister.

The emperor and Su Yu looked at each other and saw that the new champion had a very high level of understanding, and she might have figured out his intentions.

Then he said: "I heard that you are a good friend of my seventh daughter."

"Wei Chen is scared." Su Yu quickly made an expression of fear.

The emperor smiled: "Why be afraid? Since she values ​​you, don't let her live up to her expectations."

Su Yu looked into those eyes that were good at calculation when she was young, but became kind and kind as she got older.

They have been foxes for thousands of years. She pretended to be so good that the emperor didn't even know that she was pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

"Wei Chen obeys your orders."

Su Yu couldn't go home, so she asked Li Huayan to send someone to the house to tell Zhou Chunjing that she was safe.

Li Huayan was filled with envy: "You are really an affectionate person, but...just now in the garden, my little emperor's brother fell in love with you. Although you are affectionate, you can't stand his rudeness, so His Majesty personally granted the marriage."

Amelia Su: "..."

She had forgotten this incident. She had just met the young prince by chance in the imperial garden. The way the prince looked at her was really indescribable.

"Your Highness, please help me."
