Chapter 36: The Battle of Zhirou
Watching the two walk together, it caused everyone to speculate whether the two were brothers and sisters, and they had no guesses since they were childhood sweethearts, and when they grew up, the golden boy and girl became a good couple.
Seeing that there is talk and laughter between them, people who don't know the inside story come up to talk, after all, the two of them are very outstanding this time, and capable people will be welcomed wherever they go, even if they can't stay in the prince's mansion this time, I believe that as long as their realization is spread today, there will be a lot of people vying for them to do the accounting room tomorrow, so everyone wants to make friends with one or two.
For everyone's overtures, Di Yue is not used to such a scene, touching her nose and looking at the gentleman who is blocking her in front of her, although she can see his red ears behind Jin Ye at this time, knowing that this is a sign of his shyness, but she understands in her heart that this big boy is defending her at this time.
In fact, Jin Ye did not give a satisfactory answer to everyone's questions, but avoided these questions, after all, when he heard everyone ask him about his relationship with Di Yue, he also wanted to admit it, but after all, he had just met, so it was not good to offend other girls, so that Di Yue felt that he was a frivolous disciple, and besides, he himself hadn't figured out what was wrong with him, why did he care so much about Di Yue.
Instead, let everyone stop surrounding them and let them prepare for the exam.
Di Yue kept a smile on everyone's face behind Jin Ye, her face was about to stiffen, after all, it was a group of people who showed favor to her, she couldn't put on a cold face to show everyone indifferently, and Jin Ye's maintenance also made her feel very warm, when someone defended herself, everyone would be in a good mood.
The white steward, who had just finished revising the test paper and was preparing for the "written test", suddenly heard the commotion outside, and when he came out, he actually saw Di Yue and Jin Ye walking together, and was facing questions from everyone, and he was very curious about how these two people, who had not seemed to have any intersection before, came together, and was trying to eavesdrop on how they answered the question, but Di Yue was swept to his hiding place at a glance, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
It's all old people, and they were actually discovered overhearing it, and the white steward really felt very, very embarrassed, so he couldn't help but clear his throat and pretend that he had just come here.
Everyone was wondering why Di Yue and Jin Ye's eyes were looking at the same place, and they all calmed down, looking in the direction where their eyes were, but at this time, they suddenly heard the cough of the white steward, which can be described as thunder on the ground, and everyone was startled.
Although Jin Ye has been dealing with the people in front of her, Yu Guang always looks at Di Yue uncontrollably, always paying attention to her dynamics, seeing that her gaze has been looking at a place for a long time, she naturally also looks over, and just happened to see half of her body hiding behind the door.
"All candidates, please come in and prepare now, and the exam will start immediately."
The white steward didn't expect the atmosphere to become more embarrassing because of the cough he used as a cover, so he was angry and funny knowing that he was in Diyue's way, gave Diyue a meaningful expression, and immediately mentioned the next exam to relieve the embarrassment.
"Butler, did you get the results of the last game?"
Someone at the bottom asked, this time the white steward blushed, and wanted to find a hole to drill into, how could he say more and more wrong, and let the candidates enter the venue before announcing the results of the last game, how do others know who can participate in the next game and who will be eliminated!
Slowed down, the white steward asked everyone to wait, put his right hand into the sleeve of the left hand, and took out the campaign list under the attention of everyone in anticipation, announcing the top ten, there is no doubt that Di Yue and Jin Ye are on the list of entering the next game, and there are eight other people, but the white steward did not announce their rankings, and the order was also disrupted, every step was prepared so carefully, it can indeed be seen that the white steward attaches great importance to this competition.
"The above ten people passed the last competition, and the specific exam rankings will be announced to you after all the exams are over. First of all, please enter the examination room to prepare. ”
It is no accident that the people who quit the examination room in the middle of the abacus competition are not in the list of those who have successfully advanced, even if they calculate well, but they did not persist to the end, and they do not even have this bit of toughness, and they can't withstand the influence of others, so they naturally can't give them a qualification.
Di Yue and Jin Ye looked at each other and smiled, sure enough, everything was as they expected, and they both knew in their hearts that the other party would definitely be the one who stayed until the end.
"Miss Yue, congratulations!"
"Tongxi, Sumire."
Looking at the two of them who complimented each other, the white butler gave the two of them a roll of the eyes, fake, these two apprentices are now damaging his old man like this, is this really good?
The white butler didn't realize that the game was not over at the moment, he already regarded Di Yue and Jin Ye as his successors in his heart, I have to say that these two apprentices have to have good looks and ability, they are rare talents, and he is very satisfied with their performance today.
"Humph!"
Butler Bai couldn't stand it anymore when he looked at the two people who complimented each other, and when Di Yue and Jin Ye passed by him at the same time, Butler Bai said in the loudest nasal voice that he was very dissatisfied with the fact that the two of them had just let everyone see their jokes.
The two of them knew why the steward would treat them like this, and after looking at each other and smiling, they both understood each other's intentions.
"Humph!"
"Humph!"
With a good heart, Di Yue felt that Jin Ye and he got along very well, and he knew what he wanted to do with a pair of eyes.
Hearing the two of them "hum" back, the white steward couldn't help laughing, Di Yue and Jin Ye also laughed, the three of them immediately laughed, the white steward leaned back and fell back with a smile, Di Yue and Jin Ye maintained a very decent smile.
Butler looked at the two people walking side by side towards his place, looking at their youthful figures, thinking back to their exchange with him just now, Butler Bai believed that his life would become interesting in the future.
Di Yue sat in his place according to the number, recalling that he and Jin Ye had just "hummed" back to the white housekeeper, and was a little surprised in his heart, when would he do such a childlike thing, he still felt very funny in retrospect, and it was rare to have a good mood.
Although she sat back in her place, Jin Ye's eyes still followed Di Yue, watching her look at herself in a daze and then laughing again, Jin Ye felt that she had never been so happy in the past twenty years, looking at Di Yue's bright and pure smile, Jin Ye couldn't help but smirk.
"Good boy, I'm still watching the beauty when I start the competition, be careful to lose face if you lose to others!"
When Jin Ye didn't pay attention, the white butler had already announced the start of the competition, the time was a stick of incense, and after a stick of incense, he stopped answering the questions and left the examination room, and when the test papers were sent to Jin Ye, the white butler looked at Jin Ye's daze gaze, and sure enough, he found that he was looking at Di Yue, so he laughed and reminded him.
Sumire Ye, who was found to be careful by the white steward, had red ears again, and looked at the white steward embarrassedly.
"If I lose to her in the end, that's also her ability, I respect her as a respectable opponent, and I should do my best in the game, I believe Miss Yue thinks the same way."
"Boy, both of you behave well, let the old man and I see your skills, don't hide it!"
The white steward no longer joked, saving time for delaying the game, but he saw that Jin Ye was obviously interested in Di Yue, and it was inevitable that young people would be tempted to see beauty, after all, if he was allowed to be young for decades, he would also have a good impression of Di Yue, this girl is indeed very symbolic, and she has the ability, a rare beauty.
Di Yue had good hearing, so she naturally heard their conversation, and didn't take the white steward's joke to Jin Ye to heart, after all, she didn't think there was anything worth mentioning about it, but she just heard Jin Ye say that she was a respectable opponent, and she wouldn't approve of her words just because she was a girl.
After all, Di Yue has always won with her own strength, and she will not win for herself because of her own women, she will not want such a victory, she never thinks that she is inferior to men, her father has always cultivated her as the future successor of the Dahua Dynasty, she has been used to relying on her own strength to win victory for herself.
Di Yue cast a look of approval and encouragement at Jin Ye, and then withdrew his mind to prepare for his exam.
Jin Ye on the other side saw Di Yue's gesture, and naturally understood that Di Yue wanted to have a good competition, and of course he had to do his best to deal with this exam.
The so-called heroes cherish heroes, the two probably have this mentality at this time, and each other is going all out of respect for their opponents.
As soon as the exam time came, everyone opened the test paper one after another, looking at the white and flawless paper in their hands without any test questions, what kind of exam is this?
Before everyone could ask, the white pipe preemptively gave everyone a meaningful expression and solved the puzzle.
"This assessment is in response to the needs of the prince's position, but also to help the prince select capable generals, I believe you also know that the prince is now on the front line with the invading Zhirou army in a fierce battle, Zhirou took advantage of the danger of people, in our country just experienced a winter swept across the country after a heavy snowstorm to raise troops to attack, the treasury has become empty due to disaster relief, and now to support the frontline of the battle, is already exhausted.
As a member of Jiang Li, I also hope to help the emperor and the prince pass this hurdle safely, otherwise the country will not be protected, and everyone here will also fall into the fate of being separated from their wives and wives. I'm sure this is something that no one wants to see.
And if this war is not handled well, it will inevitably cause a chaotic war among the vassal states, I believe everyone understands the current situation, and it is difficult to guarantee that the other countries will not wait for us and Zhirou to fight and defeat both sides to raise troops and wipe our two countries off the continent together. ”
Steward's words resonated with everyone present, and even Di Yue couldn't help but worry, under such internal and external troubles, a little mishandling would be reduced to the point where the country would not be a country, but when I heard this, I still didn't understand what Steward Bai's words had to do with the topic of this assessment.
The white steward said emotionally, over the years, he has witnessed how Jiang Li has grown, and how much suffering he has gone through to have the ability to stand side by side with the countries today, if it is destroyed like this, it will not only be a disaster for the people of Jiang Liguo, but also a disaster for the world, in his opinion, there is no country that loves the people more than Jiang Liguo.
