Chapter 50: Winning the Top Spot

Gu Nuan didn't care, stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, and said, "Go straight from here, turn left in front, and it will be the Queen Mother's bedroom." ”

Bai Ruoshui nodded lightly.

"Thank you."

Gu Nuan smiled indifferently, compared to the flamboyant princess, the person in front of her was much more pleasing to the eye, waved his hand, and left.

Behind him, Bai Ruoshui coughed lightly a few times, stared at Gu Nuan's back, and looked out of his mind.

Above the palace walls.

Gu Nuan stood alone on top of the high pavilion, and the huge wind blew on her cheeks, which was extremely painful.

Looking into the distance, this is the entrance to the entrance, and it is also the pass where Xiao Jingyi went to the side that day.

Far away, the fog is boundless, and there is no edge in sight.

After many days, whenever Gu Nuan was in a bad mood, she often came to this pavilion to walk around, and stayed for half an hour.

The Queen Mother's Bedroom.

"Ruoshui meets the Queen Mother."

"Get up quickly, come to the mourning family, I haven't seen you for a few years, and I'm about to grow into a big girl."

Bai Ruoshui slowly got up and whispered: "In another two years, Ruoshui should be in time." ”

The Queen Mother gently touched Bai Ruoshui's hand and said with some regret: "If it weren't for your weak body, the mourning family really wanted you to be with you in the palace." ”

"Thank you for the Queen Mother's love, in the past, Ruoshui must come to the palace to walk around more."

Bai Ruoshui is the daughter of Da Sima, but she has been sick since she was a child, and the water in the imperial city does not support people, and this illness has not improved for a long time.

I heard that there was a miracle doctor in Jiangnan, and he knew a lot about this disease, so his mother took the young Bai Ruoshui and lived in a house in Jiangnan, if it weren't for this disease, she could also study in the study hall like other princes and princesses.

After ten years, there has finally been an improvement, and the big Sima Niannu is heartfelt, and recently, he sent someone to take the family to the Imperial City Mansion.

Although Bai Ruoshui is frail and sickly, he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which is not the elegance of the lobby, but it is also a small achievement.

Three days later, it is the annual school exam, the time is a pillar of incense, by the Taifu from the four aspects of etiquette, Taoism, morality, and conduct, and finally the highest comprehensive score won the list.

To put it bluntly, it is a modern exam, similar to a monthly exam once a month, with the same nature but not the same content.

I heard that His Majesty attaches great importance to this exam, and in order to perform in front of His Majesty, even the princes who love to play on weekdays memorize the book seriously.

Although Gu Nuan didn't care, if she could get the first place in the exam, she might be able to meet her father.

In the past three days, Gu Nuan has read all the books warmly, these are not a problem for her, she only needs to read them a few times to remember, which is also a habit she developed in her previous life.

Time flies, and soon it's the day of the exam.

What makes Gu Nuan a little different is that their seats are very open, and there is a wooden board in the middle, seeing this, I can't help but laugh, there was no monitoring in ancient times, and the partition can only be used to prevent peeping.

Gu Nuan sat in the farthest position, and coincidentally, Xiao Yuling was sitting not far from her, saw Gu Nuan, and gave her a provocative look.

Gu Nuan pursed her lips and disagreed.

Knock Knock Knock –

The brass drum sounded, and the exam officially began.

There was a pillar of incense on the top of the stove in front of him, and the Taifu took the fire fold and lit the incense.

For Gu Nuan, this question is not difficult.

But on the other hand, other people are looking around, scratching their ears and cheeks, and they are full of ugliness.

At this glance, it looks like I have returned to the high school classroom.

In the middle of the incense, Gu Nuan handed the scroll to the Taifu, and was the first to walk out of the examination hall under the surprise of everyone.

Taifu looked at the test paper in his hand, his eyes showed a look of amazement, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It is really terrifying to have such a creation at a young age!

There is no doubt that the first place in that exam was Gu Nuan.

When the person who reported the good news came to the dormitory, Gu Nuan was still sleeping under the quilt, and was torn up by the green clothes, holding her and sometimes crying and sometimes laughing.

Gu Nuan had to sigh, gently patted the back of the green cloth, and calmly spit out the two words.

"Don't make a fuss!"

Some people are happy, some people are worried, and the most surprised of them is Xiao Yuling, she stayed up a few nights before she barely remembered that knowledge, and she was complacent about it, but who knew that she fell off the list.

Gu Nuan changed his clothes and hurried to the study hall.

Everyone was there, and Taifu had been waiting for a long time, still holding the test paper that Gu Nuan had answered.

Seeing Gu Nuan, Taifu slowly stepped forward and said, "Congratulations to the county lord for winning the list." ”

Before Gu Nuan could speak, Xiao Yuling next to him couldn't sit still, with a look of jealousy in his eyes, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Who knows if you cheated secretly." ”

As soon as this voice came out, everyone followed suit, after all, they are all characters with heads and faces, and they are very unwilling to lose to a little girl.

Gu Nuan just watched quietly, and didn't intend to argue, but the Taifu on the side directly threw the test paper on Xiao Yuling's desk,

"If the princess is not convinced, she might as well see for herself."

Xiao Yuling snorted coldly, watched the test paper, and everyone also watched, in the midst of an exclamation, Xiao Yuling's pupils were shocked, a little incredible.

Gu Nuan seemed to have expected it, and when she saw everyone's expressions, she was not surprised at all, she did not fill in all the questions on the test paper according to the answers in the book, and every question that could be answered was impeccable.

This is also the reason why Taifu never doubted Gu Nuan.

Xiao Yuling was stunned, didn't dare to speak, and walked away.

Taifu looked at Gu Nuan, and then said, "County Lord, Your Majesty wants to see you." ”

Gu Nuan nodded and kept up with Taifu's footsteps.

The Imperial Study.

Taifu stopped, stretched out his hand and gestured to please, and then said respectfully: "The county lord will go in alone." ”

"There's Mrs. Lao."

Gu Nuan nodded and returned the salute.

When he entered the study, only Su Weizhong was waiting by His Majesty's side.

Gu Nuan saluted.

"Gu Nuan, see Your Majesty."

"Get up quickly, and sit down."

Someone behind her brought a chair and placed it behind her.

Gu Nuan sat down slowly.

"In this exam, the county lord took the first place, and I don't know what I want to give you."

"Gu Nuan didn't dare to have extravagant hopes, so he only asked His Majesty for permission to meet with his father."

Gu Nuan knelt down on her knees and said respectfully.

Xiao Min was silent when he heard this, Gu Nuan lowered his head, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Then, Xiao Min smiled, and then said: "Since the county lord is filial, then I am right." ”

Gu Nuan was overjoyed and bowed deeply.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xiao Min nodded, looked at Su Weizhong on the side, and said, "King Chuanyuan has entered the palace." ”

"I still have something to deal with, the county lord will go back to the palace and wait."

Then he looked at Gu Nuan.

Gu Nuan's heart fell back into his stomach and nodded.

In the evening.

Gu Mingyuan entered the palace and met with Gu Nuan.

Seeing Gu Nuan's somewhat emaciated face, Gu Mingyuan was a little distressed, and couldn't help but say, "Nuan Nuan, get out of the palace!" ”
