"What are these words? Didn't you always think my cooking skills were great? Cai Xiaoxiao clasped her hands to her chest, looked at Zheng Yi a little unhappily, and said, "Why do you look like you only know today." ”

Zheng Yi explained: "No, no, I just didn't expect that sister-in-law, your cooking skills are even better than those in the imperial dining room." ”

"Humph!" Cai Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and said, "You don't have your share of dinner!" ”

"Huh?" Zheng Yi looked shocked, and then immediately begged for mercy, "Don't be like this, sister-in-law, I was wrong!" Little brother, I said the wrong thing, you are very good, your cooking skills are unmatched, please don't deprive me of dinner. ”

"Humph!" Cai Xiaoxiao was unmoved.

"Brother, help me persuade my sister-in-law ......" Zheng Yi began to move the rescuers.

Zhao Kangcheng looked at the scene of the two playing treasure, smiled, he hadn't seen him for three days, and he felt that this scene was very nostalgic.

Zheng Yi saw that he only smiled and didn't speak, and said, "Brother, don't just smile, help me persuade my sister-in-law......"

Zhao Kangcheng spread out his hands to show that he couldn't do anything.

When Zheng Yi saw it, he immediately wailed: "Why is this happening? My dinner...... This is really a gaffe and hated for eternity! ”

Cai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh when he saw his exaggerated appearance, and said, "Don't use the famous sayings of the ancients!" ”

Zheng Yi saw her smiling, and immediately flattered: "Sister-in-law, you laughed, since you laughed, spare my little brother." ”

Cai Xiaoxiao crossed her hands on her hips, looked arrogant, and said: "For the sake of your sincere begging for mercy, I will forgive you." ”

"Great!" Zheng Yi cheered.

Then the three looked at each other, and then they all smiled.

The results of the temple examination will not be known until seven days later, and during these seven days, the three of them have opened a small shop to sell breakfast, while waiting for the results in seven days.

"If you win the top three, someone from the government will personally notify the candidate's residence, right?" Cai Xiaoxiao asked Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi.

The two nodded: "That's right." ”

"What if you don't hit?" Cai Xiaoxiao asked again.

"Then you can't wait for anything." Zheng Yi said, "Wait for a day, and when the day is over, everything will be understood." ”

"I see." Cai Xiaoxiao nodded understandingly.

……

After the palace examination, the candidates' three-day files were placed by the emperor's side, and after he finished reading them, he also carefully locked them in a brocade box, and then collected them, together with the results of the palace examination that he had written.

Although the crown prince and King Jiang wanted to know, they had no choice, this time none of the people in their secrets inquired about any news, and they couldn't steal the file, otherwise they would definitely attract the emperor's attention.

"I always feel that my father seems to attach great importance to this palace test this time." The crown prince landed the sunspot in his hand on the chessboard and said, "I heard that when it was reviewing the dossier or writing the Sanjia holy decree, my father was alone in the imperial study, and even Gonggong Chen couldn't wait by his side. ”

"Could it be that the emperor heard some rumors?" Taifu followed and dropped a white piece and guessed. However, when this guess was spoken, he himself was stunned first, and at the same time he felt a sigh in his heart.

"Rumors?" The crown prince looked up at him, "You mean, the father is worried that someone will steal the file?" ”

"Smack." The white child in Taifu's hand suddenly fell off, and landed on the chessboard irregularly, and a trace of panic flashed on his face.

When the prince saw it, he frowned slightly, and asked a little strangely, "Teacher, what's wrong?" ”

Taifu put away the uneasiness in his heart and the panic on his face, picked up Baizi, and said, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking, if that's the case, then it means that the emperor doesn't trust us very much." ”

"Snort." The crown prince suddenly sneered and said, "Father, when did he trust others, he always believed in himself. ”

"Is it possible that the emperor and His Royal Highness value a certain talent as much as you, and then worry that someone will be a ghost in the palace examination, so you attach so much importance to this palace examination?" Taifu speculated.

"Same as me?" The prince thought for a moment and said, "Zhao Kangcheng? "Isn't it true that his father also took a fancy to Zhao Kangcheng? Thinking of this possibility, the prince couldn't help frowning, and said to the prince with a serious face:

"Immediately take back the people we sent out to keep an eye on Zhao Kangcheng, if the father also takes a fancy to Zhao Kangcheng, then it will not be good if he finds out that we are also paying attention to Zhao Kangcheng."

Taifu nodded understandingly, and said, "I know." ”

……

Jiang Wangfu –

"Zhao Kangcheng?" King Jiang leaned on the soft collapse, listened to the news from his subordinates, and said, "The prince's analysis is not unreasonable, after all, the imperial brother also cherishes his talents, and it is understandable if he really takes a fancy to Zhao Kangcheng." Well, it's good that I didn't act rashly before...... Stand down. He waved his hand and motioned for his men to stand down.

"Yes."

After his subordinates left, King Jiang pondered alone, he was a little surprised, although he had expected that Zhao Kangcheng would attract the attention of him and the crown prince, but he did not expect that it would also attract the attention of the emperor.

Moreover, the emperor actually personally reviewed the dossier of the palace examination for this person, and hid the dossier so mysteriously, isn't it really as Taifu speculated, is he worried that some of them will steal the dossier?

Although it is true that his imperial brother is very suspicious on weekdays, and no one believes him, if there are no gossips, the emperor should not suspect them for no reason.

Or is it because his recent struggles with the crown prince have been too frequent and obvious? And then attracted the attention and suspicion of the emperor?

If that's the case, then it's troublesome......

Jiang Wang squinted, and finally seemed to think of something, and then waved his hand, a secret guard suddenly appeared in the room, and after Jiang Wang told him something, the dark guard disappeared in an instant.

- Whether it's true or not, let's be careful afterwards.

……

Seven days passed quickly, and on the day the results of the palace examination were announced, Cai Xiaoxiao and the three of them got up very early, washed up, ate breakfast, and put the words "closed today" outside, and the three of them sat in front of the house, waiting for the arrival of the official people.

After waiting for a while, Cai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask Zhao Kangcheng and them: "Don't we really have to go to the notice board?" ”

Zhao Kangcheng stretched out his hand to hug Cai Xiaoxiao and said, "No, just wait here." He actually accompanied Cai Xiaoxiao and waited, although he was waiting for the result about him, but in fact, he didn't feel the need to sit at the door and wait.

But Cai Xiaoxiao and Zheng Yi insisted on this, saying that they wanted to see the arrival of the government people as soon as possible, but he could only accompany them.

In this regard, Cai Xiaoxiao and Zheng Yi both looked at Zhao Kangcheng speechlessly: they are really the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry!
