Yan Ling took out a wolf pen.

"Champion Immortal, you quickly manifest your spirit!" He muttered, dipped his ink in ink, and began to answer the paper.

From this moment on, Yan Ling's expression became extremely serious, and he took the pen and wrote on the test paper.

The spring season is not over yet, and many candidates can't support it, so they faint and are carried out of the examination room.

As long as the remaining candidates persevere and hand in the exam papers, they have already won a lot of people.

Chu Huan persevered to the end.

However, when he came out of the examination room, he seemed to have taken off a layer of skin, and his whole person lost weight.

When Aunt Liang came to pick him up, she cried and cried.

The next thing is for the examiners to mark the papers, because Ye Siheng has to take care of the examiners, so he has not been available recently, and he rarely meets Nanli.

In addition, the two are about to get married in a month, and according to custom, it is better to see each other less.

The three examiners cross-scored, and finally selected the candidates who won the list, and then selected the top three candidates.

They unanimously agreed that the candidate named Yan Ling had the best answer and could be the champion.

Emperor Mu Wu came to be interested, he has always been a champion talent, they are all famous teachers and apprentices, and he has never heard of the name of Yan Ling.

After he carefully read the test paper, he couldn't help but say three times in a row.

Ye Siheng was a little familiar with this name, so he also wanted to take a look at the test paper.

But as soon as he looked at the handwriting, he frowned.

And Emperor Mu Wu was reminded by the chief eunuch and finally knew who this Yan Ling was.

It turned out to be a cousin of the Marquis of Anyang, and the family also offended the Duke of Jin, and his father was still in prison.

Since he didn't deal with the Marquis of Anyang, Emperor Mu Wu had the heart to promote him, and said, "Then he's a talent." ”

Before the examiners could say that the emperor was wise, Ye Siheng said: "Brother Huang, there are some problems in this person's test paper, and they still need to be investigated." ”

"What's the problem?" Emperor Mu Wu was quite displeased.

He thought to himself, it must be Ye Siheng who knew Yan Ling's identity, so he deliberately said this.

"The handwriting on his test paper, my brother seems to have seen it on the test paper of that year." Ye Siheng said.

Because the handwriting is so good, he was impressed.

Emperor Mu Wu raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Ninth brother, do you know who Yan Ling is, just because he doesn't deal with the Marquis of Anyang, so you don't want him to be the champion?" ”

"The younger brother doesn't have such a mind, the imperial examination is to select useful talents for the imperial court, if someone is not strong, but he is on the list by cheating, wouldn't it be a disaster for the imperial court?" Ye Siheng thought about it carefully, "It should be the test paper from six years ago, and it is also a top three, and I asked the imperial brother to transfer it to compare it." ”

The examiners looked at each other, they didn't want to upset the Sacred Heart, nor did they want to offend Ye Siheng, and they were in a dilemma.

It was Prime Minister Lu Cheng who spoke: "Your Majesty, the dog and this Yan Ling candidate have studied together, the dog is a person who loves talents, but he has never mentioned that Yan Ling is a high man, this test paper is indeed suspicious, it is better to check it carefully, so as not to let people fish in troubled waters." ”

Emperor Mu Wu thought about it for a while, and then felt a faint pain in his head.

He didn't want to think about it anymore, so he waved his hand, "You go and compare the previous test papers one by one, I want to see if someone is cheating, or someone is deliberately targeting." ”

Whoever this is talking about, all know in their hearts.

Ye Siheng stood straight, his face was pale and unaffected.

Prime Minister Lu Cheng sent someone to get the examination papers of the past ten years, and these test papers were stored in the palace for archiving, and it was only half an hour to go back and forth.

As soon as I got the test paper back, I started searching for comparison.

Ye Siheng was impressed, and directly asked Prime Minister Lu Cheng to look at the champion test paper six years ago, which seemed to be called Xu Zhida.

Prime Minister Lu Cheng was suspicious, found the name and took out the test paper to compare, and was instantly shocked.

"Like! It's really like! Prime Minister Lu shouted.

Not only the handwriting, but even some of the stroke pauses are exactly the same!

Ye Siheng glanced at it, thinking that his memory was really good.

Although he goes to the battlefield, he is also a person who loves to read, so every time he wins the academic examination papers, he will read them one by one.

Because Xu Zhida's words and expositions are really good, he has remembered them to this day.

After comparing the other examiners, they presented it to Emperor Mu Wu for review.

After Emperor Mu Wu saw it, he was a little surprised, and then said: "I remember this Xu Zhida, he is indeed full of economy, but he died of illness after not being an official for a few years. There are also many people copying his words, and it is difficult to ensure that this Yan Ling is copied and imitated, which does not mean anything. ”

You must know that after removing this Yan Ling, the next one is Chu Huan.

How could he let Chu Huan be the champion!

According to the rules, as soon as the champion enters the office, it is the Hanlin Academy, which is a good official position, and if he is trained in the future, he will definitely be able to enter the six ministries and enter the cabinet.

Ye Siheng said: "Brother Huang, rest assured, the younger brother has already sent someone to invite Gongzi Yan into the palace, and what the truth is when the time comes, you will know it by trying." ”

Emperor Mu Wu gritted his teeth.

This dragon seat might as well let his ninth brother sit down!

However, Ye Siheng's approach was reasonable, and he couldn't say half a sentence.

Not long after, Yan Ling had already been taken to the imperial study.

He was dressed appropriately, and there was nothing wrong with him, except that his face was slightly pale and his body trembled a little.

Emperor Mu Wu glanced at him, and Yan Ling knelt down in horror and stammered, "Knock on the emperor!" ”

Emperor Mu Wudi narrowed his eyes slightly, and his heart was a little shaken.

How can someone who writes such an article be so timid?

He whispered, "Get up." Your article is well written, and I particularly appreciate your writing, so you can write a few more sentences for me to see. ”

Yan Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief, just writing, what else should he be.

Before the eunuch moved the table, he also prepared pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Yan Ling walked to the table and couldn't help but touch the jade pendant on his waist.

He lifted the pen, thinking of the champion immortal in his heart, and he couldn't put down the pen for a long time.

Everyone watched.

But only Ye Siheng saw that Yan Ling's jade pendant had a wisp of black mist coming out, wanting to wrap around the pen Yan Ling was holding.

But a golden light swept by, accompanied by a gust of gale, and the black mist flew back into the jade pendant, not daring to come out again.

Emperor Mu Wu waited impatiently, "How long do you have to prepare?" Can't write a few words?! ”

Yan Ling trembled, his hand shook, and a few drops of ink splashed.

"Your Majesty, it will be fine soon, it will be fine soon......" He kept holding the jade pendant in his left hand, thinking to himself why the champion immortal didn't come out to help this time.

Seeing that his face was pale, Ye Siheng slowly reminded him: "You don't know that there is a magic circle in the palace, especially this imperial study, and there will be no demons and monsters who dare to come out to make trouble." That ghost in your jade perry, I'm afraid I won't be able to come out to help you. ”

Yan Ling looked at Ye Siheng fiercely, and quickly let go of the hand holding the jade pendant.

He said, "The little one...... The little one didn't know what the prince was talking about. ”

Ye Siheng sneered: "You don't know what this king said, then hurry up and write a few words to let everyone see if your handwriting is the same as that of the test paper." ”
