King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

  Chapter 78 Title

  The scholars looked very gentle and courteous, and there was nothing rude or unreasonable about them.

  After the servant led a few people into their positions, the scholars all slightly bowed their hands to the servant, with expressions of gratitude in their eyes.

  One of the scholars was dressed in coarse white clothes and looked mediocre, but there was a gentle and polite atmosphere all over his body.

  The other scholar was wearing a coarse gray coat, with a rough appearance and a short sword pinned to his waist. He didn't look like a scholar, but a martial artist. But it was dressed as a scholar, which looked extremely awkward.

  The other two, one dressed in coarse blue clothes, were handsome. There is an air of elegance on his body, just like Master Ye, but I don't know if he is like Master Ye, with a refined appearance, but in fact...vulgar and ruthless!

   There is also a person dressed in black, with a mediocre face as white as jade, and the silent aura exuding from his body, one can tell at a glance that he is a person who does not like words.

  After several people were seated, a few young men carrying tea and snacks came slowly, arranged things one by one in a well-trained manner, and retreated.

  The scholar dressed in coarse blue clothes praised, "It is indeed a building outside the building that can stand out from all the restaurants in the capital in a short period of time. It is not easy for even a servant."

The white-clothed scholar smiled and said, "Brother Liu, you don't know that, I heard that the owner behind the building outside the building has a difficult beginning, and the servants are of course different from the servants in ordinary restaurants." He smiled tacitly.

The rough scholar in gray clothes took the dim sum on the table, ate it without image, and muttered while eating, "The dim sum here is really delicious." He picked up the teapot beside him and poured water into the cup . Then drink it all with a slurp.

  The rich merchants around all turned their heads and looked at her with contempt.

   But the woman in gray didn't notice it at all, and continued to eat what was in her hand without any image.

  The woman in white shook her head and sighed, "Brother Mo, eat slowly."

  The woman in gray turned her head and glanced at the woman in white, hesitated for a moment, then handed the half-eaten snack still stained with saliva to the woman in white, and said with a reluctant look in her eyes, "No, here you are."

  No matter how gentle and polite the woman in white was, she couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth at this moment, and gently pushed back the snack that was handed to her, "I'm not hungry, brother Mo, you should eat."

  The gray-clothed woman's eyes lit up, and she didn't know what politeness was, she took back the half-eaten snack, put it in her mouth and swallowed it.

  The woman in black who had been sitting silently at the side suddenly raised her head, turned her head to look at the private room where Jun Li was, with a gleam in her eyes.

  Jun Li's eyes flickered, and there was a hint of interest in his eyes. This woman in black actually knows martial arts, and she doesn't seem to be low-level, she can't be as simple as a scholar...

   "Check the identity of the woman in black downstairs." Swaying the tea in the cup, looking at the reflection inside, she seemed to be talking to herself.

   A gust of wind suddenly blew the window open, and then quickly closed it again.

  The entire private room was quiet, only the sound of the tea in the cup shaking gently.

The woman in black downstairs slowly withdrew her puzzled eyes. If she didn't feel wrong, someone was staring at them just now, and that line of sight came from that private room, but why didn't she suddenly feel Is there any breath in it?

   Could it be that the people inside are too powerful?

   No, not right! When did such a master appear in the capital of Beirong Kingdom? Was it really an illusion just now?

  The woman in black groaned for a while, and had no choice but to look away. This is Beirong Kingdom, and she can't offend just anyone, at least not now.

   lowered his head slightly, and continued to remain silent.

   "Brother Bai, Brother Mo, Brother Han, I wonder how sure you are of this scientific examination?" said Brother Liu, the woman in blue.

  Brother Bai, a woman in white, said, "I heard that the content of the scientific examination has been changed this year. It is no longer the four books and five classics of the past, but a test of people's brain...flexibility."

  Brother Liu picked up the cup and shook his head, "It is said that His Majesty personally decided the subject of this year's scientific examination. As for the brain...uh, flexibility, I have never heard of it before."

  Brother Bai nodded, "I haven't heard of it either, I wonder if Brother Han or Brother Mo have heard of it?"

  When the woman in gray heard the words, she didn't even look at the few people, but continued to struggle with the food on the table. Just when the few people thought she would not answer, she muttered, "What sex?"

   Several people were silent, so they shouldn't have asked her, and it was useless to ask.

   "Brother Han, what do you think?" Brother Liu turned his head and looked at the woman in black.

  The woman in black said lightly, "I don't know."

  Brother Liu and Brother Bai looked at each other, smiled wryly and shook their heads, this Brother Han has a really weird temper!

  Seeing the two of them, one was buried in hard work, while the other was extremely silent. Brother Bai and Brother Liu continued, "The number of people in this scientific examination is really rare in a hundred years!" Brother Bai sighed.

  Brother Liu smiled and said, "Isn't it? I heard that there are more than 40,000 students in the capital now."

   "More than 40,000!" Brother Mo, who was wolfing down the food, exclaimed when he heard the words, and suddenly stood up. After noticing the astonished gazes around him, he touched his head embarrassingly, and sat down embarrassedly.

  A ray of light flashed in the eyes of Brother Han, the woman in black, and it disappeared in an instant.

   "It's more than that, I heard that there are still many students coming from all over the place." Brother Liu said.

  Brother Mo swallowed his saliva, "With so many people, isn't it hopeless for me?" He lowered his head in frustration.

  Brother Bai patted her on the back lightly, and comforted her, "If you fail the literary test, go to the martial arts test. I believe that with your natural power, Brother Mo, you will definitely be able to get the top three."

  Hearing this, Brother Mo's eyes lit up, and there was a glimmer of hope in them.

   "The chief examiner of this scientific examination is His Majesty, that is to say, all the people participating in this scientific examination are His Majesty's students?" Brother Mo asked blankly.

  Brother Bai and Brother Liu, as well as the silent Brother Han, all raised their heads when they heard the words, a flash of thought flashed in their eyes.

  Isn’t that right? The invigilators of the past dynasties are regarded as the teachers of those students who take the scientific examinations. Once the students pass the exams, they will visit the invigilator the next day and regard themselves as students.

   And this year's invigilator is His Majesty, that is to say, once a student passes the exam, he will go to the palace to visit His Majesty the next day, calling himself a student.

  The complexion of these people is ever-changing, what an honor it is to be His Majesty's student! No wonder I haven't seen any students go out during this period of time, feelings are the reason!

While a few people were thinking about it, a middle-aged woman slowly walked out from the high platform made of wood in front of her. She looked around, with a smile on her brow, and said, "I'm the shopkeeper Wu of the building outside the building. Today is the shopkeeper of the building outside the building." The question is set once a month, and those who guess the answer correctly will receive a jug of special grape wine and one hundred taels of silver from my building outside the building, and today's question is..." He said and pointed behind his back.

  On the left, a huge long banner descends from the sky and falls slowly, exposing today's topic to everyone's eyes.
