Aqiang, the boy who was following him, was startled and quickly closed the box door heavily.
I was afraid that walls had ears and others would overhear my words.
"Master, don't you dare say nonsense!"
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince will be arriving soon!"
Zhou Nan snorted coldly: "So what?"
"This time he didn't arrange it properly enough, so that's why I fell into such an embarrassing situation!"
"I don't care, I'm afraid of what he will do!"
Seeing Zhou Nan holding his neck, looking like he was not afraid of the sky or the earth, Aqiang was so anxious that he almost cried.
"Master, have you forgotten what I told you before you came to the capital?"
"The master said that you are a person who can achieve great things!"
"Whether it is your vision or ability, you are first-class!"
"Who sees you and doesn't say, 'Dragon and Phoenix among men'?"
"The only shortcoming in you is that you can be impulsive occasionally!"
"My master has repeatedly told me that the capital city is different from our Lingnan city. There are intrigues and intrigues everywhere."
"You have to hold your breath and be careful in everything so that you can control the overall situation!"
Under Aqiang's earnest persuasion, Zhou Nan's anger was obviously much weaker than before.
But he still couldn't help but sneered: "Do I still need to be angry?"
"I'm sure I won't be able to pass the first test today. I didn't write a word on the policy paper!"
"When I meet the Third Prince later, he will probably persuade me to go back home!"
While he was talking, he heard the box door creak again and was pushed open.
Zhou Nan thought it was Song Liang who was coming, and immediately stood up reflexively.
"Meet His Highness the Third Prince!"
No matter how much he said he didn't take Song Liang seriously, after all, he was still a dignified prince and a relative of the royal family!
In front of the third prince, you still need to have the most basic etiquette.
However, to Zhou Nan's surprise, only a young eunuch walked in slowly.
As for the third prince himself, he did not appear at all.
"Mr. Zhou, my master occasionally feels cold and feels unwell. It is really inconvenient for him to leave the palace."
"His Royal Highness has a few words for us to convey to you, Young Master!"
The eunuch in front of him was one Zhou Nan had seen before. He was a new eunuch of Song Liang named Peisheng.
Seeing that only one young eunuch came to attend the appointment today, Zhou Nan couldn't help but sneer in his heart!
It seems that the third prince has learned that he will not be able to pass today's preliminary examination.
If not, how could he not even show his face?
Nowadays, he is too lazy to pretend!
It's a pity that the top-grade coral that my father has collected for so many years was just fed to the dogs in vain!
Zhou Nan was a little impatient and said: "My father-in-law, Mr. Zhou already knows very well what you want to say."
"There's nothing to say. Mr. Zhou really doesn't have the ability to be an official!"
"Tomorrow morning, Mr. Zhou will naturally return home."
"My lord, there is no need to worry!"
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhou Nan's attitude is obviously angry.
Although eunuch Peisheng is still young, at least sixteen or seventeen years old, he is quite mature and sophisticated in his conduct.
Faced with Zhou Nan's anger, he did not rush to comfort him, but instead smiled lightly.
"Mr. Zhou, since you have traveled thousands of miles from Lingnan to the capital, everything about you is no longer decided by you alone."
"When you want to return to Lingnan is not something you can decide by yourself."
"Of course, it's not up to you whether you have the ability to be an official!"
Peisheng's tongue-twisting words successfully fooled Zhou Nan.
But looking at Peisheng's secretive smile, Zhou Nan knew that neither the young eunuch in front of him nor the third prince far away in the palace were easy to provoke!
Once you get involved, you can never get away so easily!
Zhou Nan changed his slightly angry attitude and sat up a little straighter.
"Father-in-law, what do you mean..."
Peisheng smiled and said nothing, as if waiting for someone to arrive.
"Dong dong dong..."
Soon, there was another urgent knock on the door outside.
"Your Highness, forgive me!"
"Everything in Wenyuan Pavilion is complicated, and it took a lot of effort for the veteran to get out of it!"
"I'm late today, so please let me know, Your Highness!"
Peisheng quickly stood up and quickly opened the door to the box.
"Master Wang, please come in quickly! Please come in quickly!"
Seeing that Song Liang was not in the box, Wang Shilu was relieved at first, but then became confused again.
"This father-in-law, His Highness the Third Prince..."
Peisheng explained again: "His Royal Highness occasionally feels cold and feels unwell. It is really inconvenient for him to leave the palace."
"So, I ordered our family to leave the palace."
"Master Wang, please come in first!"
Wang Shilu walked into the box doubtfully. When he saw Zhou Nan, who had been waiting for a long time, Wang Shilu became very enthusiastic instantly.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Zhou!"
"Mr. Zhou left in a hurry today. Before I could come, I wanted to say congratulations to Mr. Zhou!"
Zhou Nan smiled bitterly: "Master Wang, please stop making fun of me!"
"Mr. Zhou doesn't understand the content of today's policy discussion at all."
"If Zhou is lucky enough to come up with a few sentences, he won't end up with a blank paper!"
Thinking of his test paper, which was whiter than the snow, Zhou Nan couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
Come to think of it, I have been competitive since I was a child. I only have reading and writing, but I really have no talent.
My father knew that writing and writing was his only weakness, so he worked hard to cultivate himself in other areas.
Fortunately, I am good enough. Apart from some lack of literary talent, in other aspects, I can be said to be the best among the brothers!
I think I have always been outstanding since I was a child, but today in this first test, I ended up at the bottom.
This kind of feeling would be uncomfortable for anyone!
Wang Shilu waved his hand and laughed.
"It turns out that Mr. Zhou left with a cold face today because he was worried about this matter!"
"If that's the case, Master Zhou can breathe a sigh of relief and sit back and relax."
As he said this, Wang Shilu glanced at Peisheng beside him.
With Peisheng's acquiescence, Wang Shilu continued: "I'm afraid Mr. Zhou doesn't know something!"
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince is very thoughtful and has already made preparations."
"His Royal Highness is afraid of any accident, so he has arranged for someone to hide in the room next to the examination room."
“When I heard that there was going to be a policy theory test, this person immediately started taking the exam!”
"Before the exam ended today, that person had already written a complete strategy."
"So Mr. Zhou, what I present to the current Long Live Master at this moment is exactly that complete policy!"
