The first person on the list, as expected by the day, is the chief of Xinzhai, An Zhongliao, but An Zhongliao has now traveled the world out of Xinzhai, and the letter sent back to Xinzhai last time wrote that his person has gone to another continent south of the South China Sea to appreciate the customs of other continents. Ying Tianchang guessed that this was also the reason why those forces dared to come to Xinzhai to kick the hall, since the chief of Xinzhai was not there, then the disciple protégé who ranked first in his family couldn't compare to the second in Xinzhai?

And reading down, Ying Tianchang saw that he was ranked second after An Zhongxiao, that is, the gentleman of Linhu Academy, Ji He, who was among the many people who were reminded by Hongfeng on the second floor of Baixiao Pavilion before. According to what is written in the article, this civil and military examination is not counted as the chief An Zhongliao of Xinzhai who is now traveling abroad, and Ji He is a well-deserved first person.

This is followed by some of Ji He's deeds and achievements, Ying Tianchang couldn't help but grin when he read this, although this article is here in the gentleman Ji He of Quarin Lake Academy, and the words are full of praise, but the premise of the writer at the beginning shows its true meaning, only An Zhongyu is not there, Ji He is the first.

And what if An Zhongyou is still fasting?

Even if Ying Tianchang didn't think about some more hurtful words, he could know the gap between this Ji and An Zhongliao, the chief of Xinzhai.

Among the ten seats of Xinzhai, Ying Tianchang has seen eight seats, including Wu Dongxi, only the chief An Zhongyu and the second seat Tang Wanchu have never seen it. The last time he returned from the northwest, Ying Tianchang asked Xu Lu intentionally or unintentionally why he didn't see the chief and second seat of Xinzhai in the battle of Yue Fengshan, and the answer was decent, which was expected by Ying Tianchang.

During the long trip, Chief An Zhongkou had no news and could not return to the northwest.

The second seat, Tang Wanchu, has other important things to do.

As for what the priority was, Xu Lu didn't say it, and Ying Tianchang didn't ask. It was only later that Gu Qingrang learned that Tang Wanchu had gone to the Black Jade Forest where ten thousand ghosts gathered, and he returned to the academy half a decade ago. And now, the black jade forest, where the blood of thousands of people is sacrificed to the ghosts every day, has not even a single sapling left.

And Tang Wanchu, the second seat of Xinzhai, is in the hands of Ying Tianchang, and Lu Wensheng, who asked the sword Li Qinglian with one win and one loss, tied for third.

That Xinzhai is feared by everyone, not only the first and second seats ranked higher than it, but even the third seat of Xinzhai Wu Dongxi is in fourth place.

It's just that in addition, there are six people left in the top ten in this article, and among the ten seats in Xinzhai, only Zuoqiu, who has four seats in Xinzhai, is ranked seventh, and the rest of the ten seats in Xinzhai are not among the top ten.

Ying Tianchang flipped back and found Gu Qingrang in the thirteenth position.

Ying Tianchang glanced at the other articles again, and put this newspaper aside. The light of the oil lamp next to the pillow smoked a touch of orange and yellow, Ying Tianchang knew that the list was just the writer's own thoughts and opinions, and it was not very accurate, if you want to know the real news of this kind, instead of reading this kind of article, it is better to go directly to the second floor of Baixiao Pavilion and ask Hongfeng directly.

Of course, Bai Xiaoge can publish the article of this ranking in his own newspaper, which also shows that even if this is the writer's own subjective thoughts and attitudes, there is not much deviation from the facts.

Ying Tianchang showed a wry smile, when looking for Gu Qingrang's ranking, he also saw his name on that article. That is worthy of the three immortals of poetry and wine sword, Li Qinglian, gave a sword, and with his "own strength" to deal with the four gentlemen of the Northwest Demon Trouble, Mr. Ying Tianchang, ranked eighteenth.

Not to mention the other names that Ying Tian Changjian had never seen or heard of, Fang Tianshi, the tenth seat of Xinzhai, was one behind him, ranking nineteenth.

Ying Tianchang didn't think that he had the ability to beat Fang Tianshi, although Fang Tianshi was the last person in the ten seats of Xinzhai, but after all, it was the top ten seats representing the strength of the entire Xinzhai. You must know that in addition to the tenth seat of Happy Zhai, Fang Tianshi is sitting in the sixth seat in the Literary Academy. If you didn't use those treasures on your body, such as the old bookworm's paper cutting knife, the old drunkard's purple gold talisman, or Li Qinglian's Taibai sword qi hidden in the peach blossoms, and other things, he would be in the battle with Qingshan, who was ranked seventeenth in the martial arts, let alone Fang Tianshi.

It is estimated that he will be the same as the time when he fought with Light Thunder in the northwest, and he can throw a punch, and this is the only punch.

Even the thunder method of Lei Yin is a light thunder that has left time for himself to use.

Well, maybe I don't even have the ability to throw that punch. Ying Tianchang wiped his face, he was still too weak.

It is estimated that he will be embarrassed by the old bookworm, the three senior brothers, and Xinzhai will be embarrassed by the civil and military examination that he can't escape this time.

Thinking of this, Ying Tianchang couldn't sleep a little.

At the moment of Xu Lu's courtyard at this time, under the snow-white plum tree with plum blossoms in all seasons, Wu Dongxi has been waiting for Xu Lu for a long time.

When she impatiently kicked away a stone at her feet, she raised her head and saw that Xu Lu had already walked to her side, and then sat on the ground.

"Yes, it should be a little girl's posture, otherwise you see how afraid we are of you. Under Xu Lu's half-raised eyelids was the laziness that never disappeared.

"What is Mr. Xu looking for me to come here for?" Wu Dongxi said, looking at the door.

"That means I'm in trouble with you, right? Xu Lu waved his hand, and the snow-white plum blossoms above their heads fell even more. Xu Lu stretched out his palm to catch a falling flower, and said, "Look at it, if you are a little like the flower in my hand and are willing to dance with the wind, the man who loves you will definitely be able to line up in Chang'an." ”

Wu Dongxi frowned and said with a cold face, "Mr. Xu!"

Xu Lu threw down the plum blossom in his hand and said, "Thing, I think you also know why I asked you to come here." ”

"Is it because of this civil and military test?" Wu Dongxi asked, she couldn't think of any other reason to let Lu who didn't care about the world call him to his small courtyard during this time period.

"The reason is this. Xu Lu nodded and said. Then, Xu Lu did not continue to say his following, but showed a smile. The smile on Xu Lu's face made Wu Dongxi feel a sense of absurdity like a summer fire.

Wu Dongxi wanted to say something, but he just opened his mouth, but closed it again.

Xu Lu borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and did not directly say the idea in his mind, but said to Wu Dongxi: "If you want to say it, you can say it." ”

"Mr. Xu shouldn't be worried about Xinzhai's face...... Right?" Wu Dongxi was a little unsure. Although she is friendly with Chen Lin'an, Xu Lu, and Li Qinglian, Xu Lu is not the kind of rectum that Chen Lin'an and Li Qinglian know what they think at a glance. Xu Lu's thoughts, even their husbands can't figure it out.

Xu Lu didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Do you think Xinzhai will lose?"

Wu Dongxi shook her head, even if the first An Zhongyou, who convinced the students of Xinzhai, was not in Xinzhai now, she didn't think that anyone or any force could take advantage of this to step on Xinzhai.

"Na, you see that you, a little girl with long hair and short knowledge, are you not worried, what am I worried about?" Xu Lu stretched out his finger and nodded Wu Dongxi's forehead, and said, "Besides, even if you lose, will Xinzhai's face be lost?"

Xu Lu grinned and said, "Who dares to let Xinzhai's face fall?"

Wu Dongxi didn't speak in a funny way. Now that she's just a student of Xinzhai, she doesn't want to or want to express some of her dispensable opinions on this subject.

Wu Dongxi can understand Xu Lu, and Xu Lu naturally understands Wu Dongxi's character and personality, so he knows that Wu Dongxi's non-statement is a statement. Xu Lu said: "Of course, we are going to win. Although neither the old man nor I value these false names very much, but if you need it, we will win. It's an honor. ”

Wu Dongxi nodded, she knew why Xu Lu was going to talk about why she came over today.

"Just with Ji He with the title of gentleman, or Ren Hua from Taiping Garden, can you lose? Xu Lu said: "We want to win, and we want to win beautifully." ”

"Beautiful?" Wu Dongxi had some doubts about his ears, which was not like what Xu Lu could say.

What does it mean to win pretty?

"This time, in addition to Brother An, almost all of them have to participate in the civil and military examination. Xu Lu touched his nose, "The ranking of the fourth child in my family is too low, and it will be a little unpleasant." ”

Xu Lu half-tilted his head, and this last sentence was like a sigh.

Wu Dongxi had a headache when she heard this, she probably understood what Xu Lu meant. She said, "Wouldn't he be reluctant to do that?"

Xu Lu still didn't answer Wu Dongxi's words, and this second gentleman pulled Wu Dongxi to the ground and sat opposite him, and said, "Na, you know my fourth child so well? In fact, I have been paying attention to the matter between you and my fourth child from the very beginning, tell me, are you jealous of the unnecessary battle between you and Na Shumei in the northwest?"

Before Wu Dongxi could react suddenly, Xu Lu changed his words and continued.

"Actually, the old man also likes you a lot, or you will marry the fourth child of our family, don't you want to be our fourth junior sister, so that's it." ”

"Mr. Xu!" Wu Dongxi's cheeks were wrapped in a layer of red glow.

Xu Lu tilted his head, he suddenly felt bored, just like this civil and military exam.

Wu Dongxi left, Xu Lu didn't stop her, Wu Dongxi was able to take Ying Tianchang's feelings into account at the first time, which was unexpected by Xu Lu. It seems that the relationship between Wu Dongxi and his little junior brother is not as bad as he imagined.

It's even surprisingly good.

Xu Lu knows Wu Dongxi, she is not a girl who is good at expressing herself.

Suddenly, Xu Lu raised his eyebrows, and he couldn't say that the joke he had just made about the mandarin duck score could come true.

Outside Xu Lu's small courtyard, Wu Dongxi's steps became faster and faster, and the rhythm of his heart also accelerated. The crimson on her face still lingered, and she was a little annoyed now. Because deep in her heart, long before Xu Lu opened her mouth today, she really thought about Xu Lu's proposal, although she only thought it was ridiculous. In the past, she never thought that the identity of Zhang Yuanchun's four disciples would make her so crazy.

Early the next morning, Wu Dongxi appeared outside Ying Tianchang's hut and officially informed Ying Tianchang of the civil and military examination.

Ying Tianchang looked at Wu Dongxi and was very surprised.

Compared to Wu Dongxi's appearance in front of his room, he was even more surprised by the blush on this woman's face.

Will this woman blush? Ying Tianchang was suddenly a little scared.
