Zhizhou: \"You're An Official, But You're Raising A Bunch Of Demonesses?

Chapter 46 After Half A Month, You Will Be The Number One Scholar In The Palace Examination

Chapter 46, half a month later, you will be the top scholar in the palace examination.

"I think we've said everything that needs to be said."

"Your Majesty, look, it's getting late!"

"May I leave? My beautiful wife is waiting for me at home!"

"I have always refused to work overtime!"

What kind of person is Bai Yu?

At first, he was fierce and confident, exuding a murderous aura, saying that he would destroy the country and overthrow the dynasty.

Just now, he had a profound gaze, saying that he would become a legend, the most brilliant star in the river of time.

Now, this playful and carefree young man is also him.

Lansu had never seen such a person before.

But today, he truly recognized him.

He knew that this sixteen-year-old boy would cause a great storm in this era.

And he would be the one to trigger it.

Lansu was lost in thought.

Until Bai Yu impatiently reminded him, he snapped out of it.

"What's the matter? Can't the palace accommodate you?"

Why are young people so unruly!

The old emperor glared at this unlucky guy and said irritably.

Gradually, he also understood a bit of this prodigy's temperament.

Bai Yu chuckled lightly, "Hey, Your Majesty, I am just a poor commoner. I dare not stay long in this noble and magnificent palace!"

This brat!

How did he end up with such a mouth?

He really knows how to provoke people.

Lansu glared at him, "In three days, you will be the top scholar in the provincial examination."

"Half a month later, you will be the top scholar in the palace examination! If you are a poor commoner, what are the others?"

The provincial examination has already been completed.

Among the four to five thousand candidates, the top five hundred are selected as qualified scholars, known as Gongshi. The first place in the examination is called Huizhi.

Gongshi basically represents having an official position.

Then, these people are further selected, and the top scholar is chosen in the palace examination.

Although Lansu's words were spoken in anger,

In fact, it was also a promise and implication to Bai Yu.

He is the biggest winner in this imperial examination.

Even though the palace examination has not yet taken place, he has already been selected!

He is the top scholar!

"Your Majesty, this is using your power for personal gain."

Bai Yu understood the meaning behind the other party's words and couldn't help but laugh.

"I am the emperor!"

What power does the emperor not have?

What's the problem with appointing a top scholar?

It's just that this guy has no respect for authority, which is so infuriating.

Who else dares to speak to him like this?

Lan Su glanced at Bai Yu and emphasized his words towards the young man.

"Hehe~"

"In that case, I thank Your Majesty for your kindness."

Bai Yu chuckled and bowed to Lan Su.

It's not fair to rely on one's own abilities... such brainless words.

Why pretend to be so hypocritical?

Bai Yu has always disliked two types of people:

One is those who use connections to get ahead,

The other is those who don't let him use connections.

What is the purpose of writing such articles?

Isn't it just like this?

Happily being appointed to the top of the list, smoothly advancing in one's career.

Who understands this kind of happiness?

"Hmph!"

Lan Su couldn't help but snort lightly.

He tried hard to maintain the dignity of an emperor and not show his emotions.

But Bai Yu changing his self-proclaimed title to "臣" (chen) still pleased him.

Choice is a two-way process,

Similarly,

This also represents Bai Yu, this treacherous minister, acknowledging him.

Although the formal process has not yet been completed,

Bai Yu is already his subject.

Thinking of this,

The old emperor rubbed his hands together and couldn't help but ask the young scholar with anticipation, "Bai Yu, can you tell Us about the '御臣' (yu chen) and '驭民' (yu min) that you mentioned?"

The test paper Bai Yu wrote said three points, leaving seven points, but it made him curious.

"Huh?"

"What '御臣'? What '驭民'?"

"What are you talking about? I don't understand!"

Bai Yu shook his head and looked at the old emperor, his eyes full of confusion and innocence.

His eyes visibly became clear.

As if he completely didn't understand the meaning of the other party's words.

Lan Su:...

You brat! What are you pretending for?!!!!

You don't even know the test questions you wrote yourself?!

If I didn't know your character, I might have been fooled by you!

Didn't you say you never lie?
