Gu Wanchao walked around the East Palace, and finally found Xiao Yu'an's figure next to a rockery, she ran to Xiao Yu'an and handed him the dim sum in her hand.

"Congratulations, you've won the first place, you're amazing." Gu Wanchao sincerely appreciated that after living for so many years, Xiao Yu'an was the smartest person she had ever seen.

"Thank you." Xiao Yu'an took the snack and thanked her.

"Yesterday on the apricot list, I saw your name at a glance, tsk, Huiyuan, I'm so lucky, I'm friends with such a smart person." Gu Wanchao sat next to Xiao Yu'an, she could see that Xiao Yu'an was a little unhappy, and deliberately joked.

"Maybe it was the peace charm you gave me that worked." Xiao Yu'an fiddled with the dim sum in his hand, and attributed his first place in the exam to Gu Wanchao's peace charm.

"Okay, since the peace charm I gave you is so spiritual, then let it bless you with the title of the gold list in the palace exam next month, the top student in high school." As he spoke, Gu Wanchao stuffed all the snacks in his hand into his mouth, and stared at Xiao Yu'an with smiling eyebrows.

"I'm not going to take the temple exam." However, Gu Wanchao heard an answer that shocked her.

"Why?"

"There's no reason, I just don't want to take the test, and I follow the rules to take various exams. Then when you are old enough to become an official in the court, such a day is boring to think about. This was the first time Gu Wanchao had heard the words of complaint from Xiao Yu'an's mouth.

"You are still young now, even if you are on the list in the palace exam, the saint will not let you enter the court as an official now, don't you still have to protect your aunt, you only have to win the palace exam to make them really impress you, and when the time comes, you will be famous, and no one will dare to bully you again." Gu Wanchao persuaded.

Xiao Yu'an listened to Gu Wanchao's words, turned her head to look at this girl who was about to turn eight years old, and couldn't believe that she could still say such a reason that did not match her age.

"It's just that sometimes I'm a little tired when I think about it, for so many years, my aunt asked me to hide it, because you dragged me to the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I had to be in the limelight, maybe others think I'm very beautiful now, but I won the Huiyuan, except for you, no one said to me, "Xiao Yu'an, you are really amazing." ”

But it turned out that Xiao Yu'an, who looks old on weekdays, is actually a child in his bones, he is very smart, but he is also very hard-working, and he is also like Murong Zhao, eager to be recognized.

Thinking of this, Gu Wanchao couldn't find the words to comfort Xiao Yu'an for a while.

"No matter what, you can't give up participating in the palace exam, you have to let everyone know that you Xiao Yu'an is very powerful, you have to make them dare not bully you, you have to protect Aunt Hua." Gu Wanchao stood up and said condescendingly in her milky voice.

"Thank you, Gu Wanchao." Coldly, Xiao Yuan raised his head and said thank you to Gu Wanchao.

"Huh?" Gu Wanchao didn't react a little.

"Thank you for the snacks, I'll think of it as a birthday present from you." Xiao Yu'an held a snack in his hand and laughed.

"Huh? Oh, happy birthday. Gu Wanchao reacted at this time, Xiao Yu'an was talking about something.

Three days later, the emperor sent someone to the East Palace to call Xiao Yu'an to the palace.

"Xiao Yu'an has seen Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live." Xiao Yu'an knelt on the ground and saluted the emperor.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After speaking, Xiao Yu'an stood up.

"Xiao Yu'an......" the emperor muttered Xiao Yu'an's name.

"During the Mid-Autumn Festival, I remember that you drew a picture with the tip of your sword?" The emperor mentioned the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Yes." Xiao Yu'an lowered his head and answered.

"I have read the examination papers of your hometown examination, and you have a lot of insights into the way to govern the country." The emperor brought the topic to the township test again.

"Don't dare, Yu An just put forward his own opinion."

"Don't be afraid, since I have made you a Huiyuan, I naturally think that what you said is right, I just have a small talk with you, relax." The emperor looked at Xiao Yu'an, who was bowing his head and speaking smoothly, and reminded Xiao Yu'an.

"Can you be sure of the palace test next month?" The emperor said it was idle chatter. It's really just small talk, like a curious elder.

"Yu An is terrified, this Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon like Kyoto, every student is full of economy, Yu An is a milky child, and he really doesn't dare to hope to be on the list."

"You don't say this like a milky kid at all." The emperor looked at Xiao Yu'an, who spoke as smoothly as his grandfather, and had a headache for a while.

Hearing this, Xiao Yu'an did not reply, after all, it was the emperor in front of him, and if he said the wrong word, he might be killed.

"That's it, you have this talent, and you will be a good student to assist the prince in the future, and you will be a companion to the prince these days, and the prince has indeed improved a lot, you say, what reward do you want?" The emperor has always been a person who cherishes talents, and with a talent like Xiao Yu'an, he has to let him stay with the prince and assist the prince.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks to see you." Before Xiao Yu'an could answer, the Grand Duke ran in to preach.

"Let him in."

After getting permission, the grand duke shouted at the top of his voice: "Yes, Prince Xuan is here." ”

Then the prince ran in in a hurry.

"Father, my son heard that you called Xiao Yu'an to the palace, I don't know, what crime did he commit?" After the prince came in, he saluted, glanced at Xiao Yu'an on the side, and asked the emperor.

Hearing this, the emperor glanced at the crown prince and did not reply, but looked at Xiao Yu'an on the side, and said, "Xiao Yu'an, what do you want when I ask you?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yu'an raised his head, "Today is Yu An's birthday, since Your Majesty asked Yu An what she wanted, Yu An had the courage to ask Your Majesty for a birthday gift." ”

"Oh? What do you want for your birthday? Let's hear it. When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but be interested.

"The pen that Your Majesty just held in his hand." Xiao Yu'an stared at the pen on the desk and said his request.

"What's so hard about that, since you want it, I will give it to you." Subsequently, the emperor gave the pen to Xiao Yu'an.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xiao Yu'an knelt down and took the pen and thanked him.

When he left the imperial study, the prince breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fang just told Lone that you were taken away by your father, and Lone thought you had committed something, but since your father promised to give you a reward, why did you ask for a pen?" The prince really couldn't figure out what Xiao Yu'an was thinking.

"Your Highness, don't underestimate this, I'm still counting on its gold list title." Xiao Yu'an made a rare joke.

The two teenagers joked all the way back to the East Palace.
