The examinees and passers-by on the side accidentally bumped into this scene and they all laughed. Li Qiao's mouth is really poisonous!
The goatee was trembling with anger, his originally dark red face turned dark purple, and the beard on his chin trembled, but in the end he only managed to choke out four words: "It's an insult to gentlemen!"
Several of Goatee's companions also had dark faces and stared at Li Qiao without saying a word.
Li Qiao smiled and said: "Since Your Excellency knows that it is insulting to be polite, why did you just mock us, who are also the disciples?"
"It's not a good move if you don't want to be a Jinshi. We didn't come here to fail. We just prayed a few words casually. Why did you go out of your way to ridicule us?"
"you!"
Goatee was still trembling all over. He wanted to say that I was just reminding you not to daydream and recognize yourselves, but he was afraid that Li Qiao would treat him like a pig again!
A student with splayed eyebrows behind the goatee couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily: "What is the occasion for the general examination? How can you countrymen pass the exam! Brother Chen is kindly reminding you not to daydream!"
"The yellow list has not been posted, how do you know we can't pass the exam? Are you the examiner?"
Li Qiao was not annoyed and asked with raised eyebrows.
"Huh, what's the use of being quick-talking? You can pass the exam, but these little country bumpkins around you will definitely fail!"
The splayed eyebrows sneered.
"As for you, even if you don't fail, your ranking will definitely be at the bottom. The examination is not about reputation, but about true talent and learning!"
"The yellow list has not been posted, aren't you still showing off your words?"
Li Qiao raised his lips and smiled: "Looking at your appearance, you are very unconvinced that I am famous. But my fame was given by the Holy One. If you are not convinced, you can also attract the attention of the Holy One with your strength."
"……you!"
The man with the splayed eyebrows immediately started to tremble with anger, and his face turned the color of pig liver.
Li Qiao clicked his tongue: "Why are you so angry? You two deliberately said some ridiculous things to me. Don't you just want to attract my attention in this way?"
"Congratulations, you succeeded. After today, you will also be famous among scholars in Shengjing."
"Thank me. After the money sinks, I'm still happy to let you play porcelain."
Goatee: "..."
Characterized eyebrows: "..."
Their hearts were up and down violently, and their bodies were shaking like chaff. They were so angry!
"That's right! Li Qiao was talking to his friends, and you stopped to mock her deliberately. You just want to make Li Qiao famous!"
There happened to be a senior official from Yuanhe Province standing nearby. He had just visited Li Qiao a few days ago. At this time, he was watching the people passing by and couldn't help but say something.
"Um... is it possible that they mocked Li Qiao because they wanted to praise Xin Zhi?"
Among the crowd of onlookers, someone suddenly said: "Chen Deren and the others have been fawning over Xin Zhi!"
"ah???"
"No wonder!"
"So this is ah!"
Everyone watching, including Li Qiao, had a look of astonishment on their faces.
It turns out to be Xin Zhi’s licking dog.
Li Qiao smiled and was about to speak, but then someone suddenly shouted: "Hey, that's the carriage from the Marquis Wu'an Mansion! Xin Zhi is here!"
This voice shouted out and immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.
A brand new and luxurious carriage was parked not far away. The door of the carriage opened and a young man in a blue gown stepped out of the carriage. He held the door of the carriage with one hand and lifted up the hem of his clothes with the other hand and jumped from the shaft of the carriage. down.
He was born with red lips, white teeth, and a tall figure. He was a handsome man as the legend said.
However, at this moment, his eyebrows were furrowed and his mood didn't look very good.
He got off the carriage and walked towards the gate of Gongyuan with a straight face and long strides.
The passers-by who were watching originally wanted to tell him about the dispute between Chen Deren and Li Qiao, but looking at his expression, they all stepped back for fear of offending him.
The people in front of him parted like a tide, making way for him. He walked forward without looking back, and soon came to the corner where Li Qiao was.
Chen Deren and others looked at his stern face, closed their mouths with a look, and just smiled and cupped their hands at him.
But who knew that he paused and stopped.
He looked at Li Qiao, tilted his head, and the unhappiness on his face turned into curiosity: "Li Qiao?"
"That's right." Li Qiao cupped her hands towards him.
"Xin Zhi, Xin Zi Zai, brother Li can call me Zi Zi." Xin Zhi cupped his hands towards Li Qiao, with a slight smile on his face.
"Um... Master Xin, just call me Li Qiao." Li Qiao was a little surprised.
He has no nickname, only a first name.
But that's not the point.
The key point is Mr. Xin's attitude towards him.
Not only Li Qiao was surprised, but everyone around him was also surprised.
Some passers-by who were watching the excitement and did not mind the matter immediately told Xin Zhi about the dispute just now: "Mr. Xin, Chen Deren and others are fighting for you!"
Xin Zhi: "..."
His handsome face turned gloomy in an instant. He glanced at Chen Deren and others, and said with a cold face: "If you don't like Brother Li, just say it boldly. Don't cause trouble in my name. I will fight with you." If we are not relatives or friends, I will not wipe my ass for your arrogance."
These words were really sharp, not inferior to what Li Qiao said about tying pigs, and the onlookers burst out laughing.
"The flattery slapped the horse's leg!"
"No, Mr. Xin treats Li Qiao with courtesy. They are sarcastic and sarcastic towards Li Qiao. It's obvious that they themselves despise Li Qiao!"
…
The ridicule of the crowd was like a knife, stabbing these people to the point where they had no shame to stay any longer. Their faces were so red that they were bleeding, and they wished they could find a gap in the ground to get in.
But there was no gap in the ground, so they lowered their heads, covered their faces with their wide sleeves, and ran quickly towards the entrance of the Gongyuan.
When these people disappeared, Xin Zhi looked at Li Qiao with an apologetic look: "I have admired Brother Li for a long time, and I haven't even spoken to any of them. Brother Li, please don't misunderstand me."
"Don't worry, Mr. Xin, I have a clear distinction between grudges and grievances. Whoever is responsible shall bear the blame." Li Qiao had a gentle look on his face.
He didn't detect any malice in Mr. Xin.
"Brother Li is indeed as clear-eyed as the legend says! Uh... I wonder how Brother Li wrote this policy article? Anyway, the rankings are about to be released, why don't you tell me first?"
Xin Zhi tilted his head again and looked at Li Qiao with curiosity.
"this……"
Li Qiao was still surprised.
Is it possible that Mr. Xin messed up his policy article this time?
He glanced around and saw that everyone nearby was looking at him curiously. Li Qiao cleared his throat and said, "Let's wait until the results are released. If I don't win, it will be a bit embarrassing."
"Well... OK, wait until the results are released!"
Xin Zhi did not insist, but he did not go to the gate of Gongyuan anymore. He stood directly next to Li Qiao and started talking to Li Qiao.
"Brother Li, your Qiuli ointment is good. During the Chinese New Year, I had a dry and itchy throat and felt uncomfortable. My mother let me drink it a few times, and the symptoms disappeared immediately."
"I'm so curious about Brother Li's article this time. If Brother Li wins the Huiyuan, I hope Master Yan will post your article so that students all over the world can watch it."
Li Qiao: "..."
Unexpectedly, Xin Zhi looked like a noble man, but turned out to be a talkative one!
Moreover, Xin Zhi must have messed up his article this time, otherwise he wouldn’t be so concerned about his article.
Xin Zhi is the most popular player in this tournament, and his attitude spread quickly.
He and Li Qiao are competitors, and everyone thinks that even if he has no hostility towards Li Qiao, he will not stand with Li Qiao.
After all, he also took the Xiao San Yuan and the Xie Yuan, but there was only one Hui Yuan this time, and one of him and Li Qiao would definitely not be able to get the big one.
But who knew that the two of them were standing in the corner talking and laughing!
I know this is...
Xin Zhi was eager to find out about Li Qiao's article. Was it because he didn't do well in the exam?
As soon as this guess came out, people's hearts sank, but they quickly comforted themselves. Even if Xin Zhi didn't do well in the exam, there was still Gu Lianghan.
There's no way it was Li Qiao who got Hui Yuan.
The topic this time is so big, even if Li Qiao donated his vermicelli profits to the national treasury, it would be...
That is better than what they thought.
Although Li Qiao comes from a small place, Li Qiao is rich, very rich!
If he had written that he was willing to donate the proceeds from the vermicelli to the national treasury, he would probably be able to beat others.
Can Gu Lianghan and others bring more money to the treasury than the revenue from vermicelli?
However, for a Huiyuan, Li Qiao shouldn't fight so hard...
Just when these candidates were feeling heavy, the gate of Gongyuan opened and a group of guards wearing blue brocade robes walked out.
These people are not ordinary Forbidden Army, they are the elite of the Forbidden Army - the Holy Guards.
The leader was none other than Zhao Cun, the captain of the Guards.
Zhao Cun's official position was only in the fourth rank, but no one dared to look down upon him. As soon as he appeared, the group of people at the front immediately lowered their voices.
A guard behind Zhao Cun was holding a large tray in his hand, and the results of the test were placed on the tray.
Because there were so many people admitted, the yellow list was very large and the tray was covered tightly.
It was the same process as the provincial examination for children. First they beat gongs and set off firecrackers. After the atmosphere was raised, a few guards began to paint paste on the walls.
The yellow list was so large that it required several guards to post it together. When one of the guards picked up the yellow list from the tray, the people at the front saw what was under the yellow list.
That's a test paper.
"Oh my God, could it be that the Huiyuan this time is Li Qiao??!"
