Chapter 228
On the day when the rankings were announced, Bai Susu and Zhou Ximing changed into casual clothes again, and went to the teahouse that those students liked the most.Now that the list has been posted, it is natural for some to be happy and some to be sad.

Gu Wu didn't care much about this list anymore. When he walked to the front of the list and saw that his name had been ranked, he turned around and walked towards the teahouse calmly.

It's just that slightly arrogant pace and cheerful whistle that revealed his good mood at this time.

Standing at the door of the teahouse and looking around, after finding the target, he strode over, raised his hands to salute Zhou Ximing and Bai Susu, and said with a smile, "I've met my lord, I've seen my wife."

"Sit down first." Zhou Ximing nodded lightly, with a low voice, "Is everything done?"

The people of the Eagle Clan are very cunning, and four or five out of ten of the shadow guards he released were thrown away. Fortunately, Gu Wu, who broke into the inside, sent a lot of useful news.

So Zhou Ximing entrusted him with a special task, to find out the whereabouts of this Prince of the Eagle Clan, and bring some evidence of their royal family's secret purchase if necessary.

"I found it." Gu Wu took out a crumpled piece of paper and stuffed it into Zhou Ximing's hand, and said in a low voice: "This prince is the most trusted prince of the princes and princesses who came here this time, but now the patriarch of the Eagle Clan is the most trusted." Trusted brother."

And the paper in Zhou Ximing's hand is the letter that the prince and the patriarch of the Eagle clan conspired with each other.

"Where is the prince now?" Zhou Ximing put away the crumpled paper and asked again.

After he and Bai Susu ordered the shadow guards and dark guards to fight together, they only managed to accept half of them, and the other half has not been found yet.

Among them, the news of the prince disappeared without a trace, as if the world had evaporated.

"When I fled with those people, I knew they were going to the capital to find another bodyguard who had been lurking for more than three months." Gu Wu said with a smile, with regret in his tone, "It's just that on the way, the prince let We escaped in six groups, and I returned to the capital ahead of schedule."

The soldiers are divided into six groups, which is really broken.They hide in the crowd, like looking for a needle in a haystack, it is impossible to catch them all.

"Maybe you can draw a portrait of that prince?" Zhou Ximing gently tapped the table with one hand, patiently waiting for Gu Wu's words.

"I already guessed that adults would want it." Gu Wucong took out another slightly crumpled piece of paper from his chest, opened it and handed it to Zhou Ximing, and said with a smile, "I have already drawn it, and I even stole the portrait of that personal guard." .”

Bai Susu raised her eyes to look at the portrait, and when her eyes were fixed, she instantly realized something was wrong.She seems to have seen the person in this portrait.

Where did I see it...

It's the uncle who sells dragonflies with bamboo leaves next to the restaurant!

Zhou Ximing also seemed to have thought of this, and the two looked at each other, seeing the same meaning in each other's eyes.

After putting away the portrait, Zhou Ximing lightly tapped the table with his fingers, and finally made a decision, "You don't need to participate in this matter later, and I will let others take over the rest."

Gu Wu had shown his face in front of that prince before, so it would be better for others to inquire later.

"Alright." Gu Wu stretched his waist, looked at Zhou Ximing with excitement in his eyes, "My lord, my ranking in this scientific examination is not bad."

"I know." Zhou Ximing looked at Gu Wu, "Ten days will be the palace examination, so come and participate on time."

Seeing that Zhou Ximing didn't mention anything about being promoted at all, and let him continue the exam, he sat back to the original seat with a weary look, with decadent eyes, "I thought I would be able to avoid the exam after going through life and death like this, but in the end it was There is an exam."

When Gu Wu and Zhou Ximing exchanged information, they just wanted to avoid these annoying exams.As a result, everything is almost done, and I still have to go to the exam honestly.

If he had known this earlier, he might as well have rested in the inn all day and not take this risk.

Seeing the young man's depression, Bai Susu said at this moment: "It is imminent for the eagle clan mission to visit now. If you are appointed as an official at this time, it will definitely destroy some plans, so I can only be wronged."

The young man also guessed the emperor's intention, he answered slowly, raised his eyes to look at Bai Susu, and asked boldly: "Then, no matter what kind of performance I have in the palace examination, can I be an official?" ?”

"Even if you don't go to participate now, there will be an official." Bai Susu said with a smile, and then added: "It's just that the official position is not very big."

The implication is that after taking part in the palace examination, there will be high officials who can do it.

Gu Wu's eyes lit up again, he raised his hand and rubbed his hair, and asked again with a smile: "Then I don't know if this happened, is there any other reward?"

"Other rewards?" Bai Susu thought about it carefully, and she understood a little bit, "Do you want some gold and silver?"

"These are things outside the body." Gu Wu immediately shook his head indifferently, and then said: "I just don't know if Madam can give the grass-roots a privilege?"

"Privilege?" Bai Susu was puzzled, "What privilege?"

Even if he wanted some kind of privilege, he should go to Zhou Ximing for it. Why did he look at her?
Gu Wu laughed twice, "I found out that the dim sum shop in Xishi and the restaurant in Beishi are owned by my wife, so I wondered if I could have a free meal every day."

He paused, and added, "Give this privilege to the grassroots for thirty days, and the grassroots are satisfied."

It was the first time for Gu Wu to eat the snacks and meals here, and they felt fresh.But every time I went there, the two stores were full, and I couldn't find a place if I didn't go there sooner, so Gu Wu thought of opportunistic tricks.

"Okay." Bai Susu thought that this is not a big deal, "I'll ask them to reserve a place for you in both stores, and then I'll give you a wooden sign, and you can just go there."

"Thank you ma'am!" Gu Wu immediately smiled and sat there with a smile.

Seeing Gu Wu's temperament, Zhou Ximing rarely showed a smile.He picked up the teapot on the table, added tea to the empty cup in front of Bai Susu, and then poured himself a cup.

Today, Bai Susu brought some snacks as usual, but what he brought today was not the usual snacks that can be bought, but the egg tarts and mousse that are only available in the system.

It was the first time for Bai Susu to eat these desserts in such a quaint tea house, but when paired together, the taste has an indescribable liking.
