As time came, the main hall of the Guozi Mansion began to become quiet, and only the responsible officials were collecting the entire test paper, while Li Jun was once again trapped in the test paper.

This time, Liang Changmao did not dare to disturb him anymore, but just did what he should do. Until the sky was completely dark, he ordered people to take the light.

"Ah, it's completely dark." Li Jun only realized this time.

"Your Majesty, this paper?" Liang Changmao asked carefully.

"It is determined to be the ninth place in the national examination." Li Jun said.

"Ninth place?" Liang Changmao took charge of the Imperial College and had experienced three national examinations. This is the fourth time. In all the national examinations, there has never been a direct conclusion by His Majesty. This time he actually directly ranked, and it was not the first place, which is really strange.

"You can also take a look at the ninth place." Li Jun said.

Liang Changmao followed the test paper, but did not read it immediately. According to the practice, His Majesty would not return to the palace to live in the past few days, but instead lived here directly, continuing to review other test papers overnight. However, it is dark now that it is natural that he has to eat first and rest for a while.

When Li Jun left, other officials also gathered around. Obviously, they had never encountered such a thing.

Liang Changmao asked an old man over 50 years old at this time: "Master Qiao, you have been in the Imperial Palace for more than 20 years. Have you encountered such a thing since the late emperor?"

At this moment, the old man touched the corner of his mouth and recalled: "To be precise, the official has been in the Imperial Palace for twenty-eight years and has gone through nine national examinations. This happened for the first time. Before that, he even had the first place choice, let alone just pointing to the ninth place. This is really puzzling."

"Mr. Li, who wrote this paper?" someone asked soon.

"The state trains in Huangzhou are shining." Liang Changmao had already noticed that Jingguo's national examinations would not cover up his name, after all, the test papers required the emperor to personally review.

"The Xiaguan knows this person. Previously, the articles of states in various states were compiled into a book, and this person's articles were also included. The Xiaguan looked at his articles a few more times. This person is very talented, but he would not be able to shock His Majesty. Could it be that he had intentions to hide his weakness before?" Lord Qiao had a transcendent status in the Imperial Palace. Apart from Liang Changmao, he had the only capital to say such things.

"In the test of the states, there are only three or five people in small states, and at most, there are just over ten people in large states. Although Huangzhou is barely considered a big state, there are only nine people in the states every year, so it won't hide its weaknesses, right?" Liang Changmao shook his head and said.

"I think it's better for us to take a look at this paper together." Lord Qiao said anxiously.

"Your Majesty is going to have a meal. After the meal, I will check the papers together." Liang Changmao said.

"What else can I eat? Just take a cake to fill my stomach. Let's take a look while His Majesty is still having a meal." Lord Qiao said urgently.

"Master Qiao is right." Others agreed.

Liang Changmao was also curious, so he ordered his men to make some cakes, and then put the papers on a table, and a group of people surrounded him and looked around.

Master Qiao could not help but shouted in surprise after seeing the beginning: "Well? How dare this person propose to treat the people of the northern country with severe torture? Wouldn't this make the people of the northern country unable to return?"

"Don't be anxious, Lord Qiao, your Majesty can ponder, that's not all that." Liang Changmao said as he looked down. In fact, at the beginning, his mind was the same as the other party.

Accompanied by the following content, everyone soon discovered that the real purpose and reason for the so-called strict treatment were all stunned.

After a long time, the Lord Qiao, who was initially suspicious, sighed and said, "This Che Guangyao is really just a poor family. Why do I look at him as if he can understand people's hearts? Such a means of attacking the hearts and real profits are really something that a poor family can write about?"

"Master Qiao, don't underestimate the poor children. His Majesty Taizu was also born in a poor family. But this person actually boldly asked His Majesty to directly migrate to the people of the four most desolate northwest states in the Ming Dynasty. This is really a big deal. Others have expanded their territory, but he asked His Majesty to abandon the captured territory. But seeing that his words are indeed reasonable, it is no wonder that His Majesty will ponder." Liang Changmao was able to take charge of the Imperial Palace, so he naturally had talent and learned at this time.

"If it is really as he said, then within ten years, the power of Ming Kingdom will be completely absorbed and further strengthened our Jing Kingdom." Others also sighed.

"But why did Your Majesty make this person ninth?" An official asked in confusion.

"This person was born in a poor family and has no background. If he is a top student, he will probably be envied by others. Your Majesty is protecting this matter. I guess Your Majesty will remind you later. You should not disclose it at will. Otherwise, if something happens to this car Guangyao, you will probably be furious after all." Liang Changmao reminded at this time.

"Of course I understand the key points." Others agreed.

Che Guangyao didn't know what kind of sensation his paper caused, and he was still waiting silently at this time.

At the same time, Lin Haoming welcomed an old friend. When he watched Yuan Cai appear in front of Lin Haoming, Lin Haoming felt embarrassed and said, "Brother Yuan, I took the liberty to come, but I didn't know that you were going to celebrate your birthday, but I didn't prepare a gift."

"What do you say? I heard you came over, so you didn't come immediately." Yuan Cai said with a smile, not caring about the so-called gift at all.

"This time, the birthday of my father, more and more people came from all over the country, so I asked me to greet the guests first when I went back. As a result, after I went back, I told my father that you were here. Who would have thought that he would throw the guests down to find you directly?" Yuansha also added with a smile.

"This made me a little flattered." Lin Haoming saw that although Yuansha was jokingly speaking, it also showed that the other party attached importance to him.

"You are talking nonsense, it is obvious that you deliberately wanted to follow me." Yuan Cai said with some doting lesson.

"Isn't you the same?" Yuansha said with a little coquettish look.

Lin Haoming had a very good relationship when he looked at them as father and daughter.

"I didn't come out? I'm here to invite Brother Lin to stay in the Dragon Palace for a few days." Yuan Cai said with a smile.

"This is more than a few days of staying for a few days. You will have a long time to celebrate your birthday. You may not always ask Uncle Lin to accompany your friends. Why not continue to accompany Uncle Lin to travel around Shengmin Lake for you? Besides, isn't I still missing my last wish?" Yuan Sha murmured immediately.

Looking at the father and daughter, Lin Haoming knew that something must have happened, but he was not easy to get involved, so he just smiled but said nothing.

"My daughter, but what he said makes sense. Brother Lin can travel around for a while. Then, let Shasha pick you up to my Dragon Palace and stay for a while." Yuan Cai said with a smile.
