On the second day of the policy essay test, Li Shao was still full of ideas.

After finishing the paper, I checked it twice and finally waited for the gong to sound indicating the end of the exam.

After the examiner has collected the test papers and answer sheets, they can line up and leave the examination room.

After leaving the gate of the martial arts garden, Li Shao took a deep breath of the outside air, thinking that it was finally over and he would be able to see Ye Ge'er and the children again.

He began to look into the distance and immediately saw his own carriage, as well as Ye Ge'er and Shen An standing beside the carriage, preparing to walk towards them.

At this moment, it seemed like someone was hitting him quickly and forcefully from behind. Fortunately, Li Shao had sensitive senses and noticed it in advance.

But he did not avoid it. Instead, he pretended not to notice and continued walking forward.

Zheng Qian knew that this was at the gate of the martial arts garden and it would be bad if a dispute occurred, but he also had no intention of fighting with Li Shao.

The idea was to make him fall flat on his face in front of everyone and lose face. This move could be said to be extremely childish, but there was no solution.

After all, no matter how angry Li Shao is, as long as Zheng Qian pretends that he bumped into him accidentally, Li Shao can't hold on to him, otherwise it would make him seem too petty.

Unexpectedly, things did not develop as Zheng Qian expected. The moment he bumped into Li Shao, it felt like he had hit a rock.

Li Shao was still standing steadily, but Zheng Qian was knocked to the ground.

While lying on the ground, Zheng Qian felt a huge impact and his whole body shook violently. The pain was like fine needles piercing every inch of his skin and nerves in an instant.

The sharp and intense pain made him gasp. Then, numbness began to spread and his head started buzzing.

The people around were also shocked by this sudden scene, and they all came forward to show their concern for Zheng Qian who was still lying on the ground in a daze.

"Brother Zheng, what happened? Why did you suddenly fall to the ground? Are you okay?"

"Yeah! What happened? Did anyone see what happened?"

"Brother Zheng, please say something! Can you move now?"

"I just saw that I bumped into Brother Li, didn't I?!"

"What? Just bumping into each other caused this?!"

"That's impossible! They just bumped into each other. How come Brother Li was standing there peacefully while Brother Zheng was in this state?!"

Everyone looked at Li Shao with different eyes. No matter what happened, it could make Zheng Qian look like this in an instant. Many people who wanted to challenge him before now gave up the idea.

Li Shao hurriedly explained: "I didn't do anything! I was walking normally, and he suddenly bumped into me from behind, and that's what happened."

He was so innocent! It was obviously Zheng Qian who bumped into him, but he made it seem like he had done something to him. These future colleagues now looked at him in a strange way.

It's so annoying. The palace examination is finally over and he is in a hurry to find Ye Ge'er. He doesn't have the time to waste here with them.

He was just about to ignore the people surrounding him and walk away.

At this time, Chu Jiang on the side said: "I can prove what Brother Li said. I was behind them just now and saw it clearly."

"Brother Li was walking forward normally, but Master Zheng suddenly bumped into him from behind and knocked him away." He saw everything that happened just now and also realized that Zheng Qian was full of malice towards Li Shao.

With Chu Jiang's evidence, the people around him had nothing to say. Zheng Qian, who was lying on the ground, was so embarrassed that his face turned red.

He gritted his teeth and stood up, pushing away the people around him, then staggered away.

Li Shao looked at Chu Jiang who was speaking for him and said with a smile: "Thank you for speaking up for me, brother. If I remember correctly, you are Brother Chu Jiang?"

Chu Jiang smiled and replied, "That's right, Brother Li has a good memory. I am Chu Jiang, and I ranked third in the examination, which is far worse than Brother Li."

"Brother Chu, please don't say that. The third place in the examination is already a talent picked out of a hundred."

"Hahaha, I've heard about your deeds before I met Brother Li. I was thinking that I would definitely have a sparring match with you after I get to know you."

"Now it seems that there is no need to humiliate myself, but I still want to make friends with you, okay?"

Chu Jiang was cheerful and generous, and he just spoke for him. Li Shao naturally had no reason to refuse, so he nodded and said, "Of course, I, Li Shao, will make friends with you, Brother Chu."

"In a few days, we can have a drink and a meal together, and we can have a friendly discussion. It's not convenient now. I have to go home to see my husband and children."

"Hahaha, okay, Brother Li is really a good man. It's his duty to accompany his family. Then let's make a deal and have a drink together in two days."

The two then exchanged addresses and parted ways.

Li Shao ran to Zhao Ye and hugged him, "Brother Ye, you've been waiting for a long time! I just chatted with a candidate I know for a while, so I wasted some time."

Zhao Ye broke free from his arms, looked him up and down, front and back, and checked him thoroughly. He was relieved to see that he was fine.

"It didn't take long, but husband, I saw a group of people gathered around you when you left the door. Did something happen?"

Although the palace examination had ended, people were not allowed to linger in front of the martial arts garden. Zhao Ye and others who were waiting for the candidates to come out were waiting at a distance.

Li Shao made up a random story, "It's nothing serious. One of the students probably didn't do well in the exam and was too fragile to accept it. He fainted right after leaving the martial arts park."

"Ah?!" Zhao Ye's eyes widened in surprise, and then he immediately said cautiously: "Husband, in fact, it is already remarkable to be admitted as a military scholar. It doesn't matter how you do in the palace examination..."

Seeing that he was afraid that he would not do well in the exam and would be upset, Li Shao couldn't help but smile and pinched his nose, "Your husband did very well in the exam."

"Besides, I'm not the kind of person who can't survive a little setback. I have to stay with my brother Ye."

Zhao Ye was still not used to being so intimate with her husband in public, and pulled his hand down a little embarrassedly, "Husband, let's get in the car quickly, and we can talk about it when we get home."

"Also, you must not have eaten or slept well in the past three days. Go home and take a shower, eat something good, and then lie down in bed and have a good rest."

Shen An at the side also echoed: "Yes, Master, my husband got up early this morning and kept talking about you at home. He was afraid that you would suffer, and he prepared a large table of food for you to return home."

Li Shao smiled and hugged Zhao Ye, "Okay, let's go home."

After returning home, eating and taking a shower, the two lay on the bed and hugged each other.

Without doing anything else, they just hugged each other quietly and enjoyed the peace and happiness of the moment.

After a while, Zhao Ye spoke first, "My husband, have you seen the emperor? What does the emperor look like? Is he so wise and powerful that people dare not look directly at him?"

For people like Zhao Ye who were born in a small village, a small county magistrate might be an official they would never meet in their entire life.

Regarding a "legendary" figure like the emperor, besides awe, there is more curiosity.

Li Shao smiled and touched the little head on his chest. "The emperor also has one nose and two eyes, nothing special. As for whether he is wise and powerful, I can't tell without in-depth contact with him, but his aura is very strong."

"By the way, after the Skill and Courage exam, he asked me to come forward and ask a few questions."

Zhao Ye's eyes widened instantly, "Husband, you even talked to the emperor?! You are really, really amazing!"

As he spoke, he raised his upper body and looked at Li Shao with admiration.

Li Shao smiled helplessly and pulled him to his chest again, "What's wrong with saying a few words? The emperor is also a human being, and humans can talk. Maybe he saw that your husband is amazing, so he wanted to say a few words to me."

Zhao Ye lay on Li Shao's chest, and couldn't help but feel ecstatic. That was the emperor! The emperor even talked to his husband! His husband was so amazing!

Zhao Ye had long been accustomed to Li Shao's disrespectful remarks about the emperor. Anyway, her husband knew his limits and would only say these things to her, so Zhao Ye would not say anything to him.

She just kept looking at Li Shao with starry eyes, saying: "Husband, you are so amazing, so amazing, I admire you so much!"

Li Shao couldn't control himself at the cute little appearance and quickly pounced on him.
