The study room in the main house of the Li Mansion.

Li Jun said to Duke Li: "Father, why did His Majesty open this Gentlemen's Courtyard? Is it really just to select talented people? Or to win over court officials?"

Duke Li shook his head, "I don't understand it either."

Li Jun narrowed his eyes, "But my son always feels that Prince Yuansheng should understand."

Duke Li raised his eyebrows, "Why are you so suspicious?"

Li Jun said: "What a coincidence, Feng Hui ridiculed her, she got angry, and then proposed a competition, as if she was aiming to enter the Gentlemen's Courtyard."

Duke Li paused, and finally said, "Look carefully after you go in. If it is not necessary, you are not allowed to have too much contact with Princess Yuansheng. Just keep a distance and not too close."

"Yes, my son understands."

At the Nian family, Nian Changling arrived home very late and immediately called Nian Chenghan over, "Cheng'er, since you are planning to come out into the world, this time entering the Gentlemen's Courtyard is a good opportunity, um, make more friends."

Nian Chenghan nodded calmly, "Grandson knows."

At the Huo Mansion, Huo Jindao snatched his knife and slapped Huo Baijun on the forehead. "Pay attention to yourself. Now that you have entered the Gentlemen's Courtyard, you should study hard."

Huo Baijun looked at his father in surprise. It was strange. Why was the old man so kind today? Unfortunately, he didn't dare to ask.

Mu Ziqi lived alone with his entourage. His house was even more deserted than Zhao Xi's, with only a few old servants to keep him company.

Everything was normal when he returned home. He read books, practiced calligraphy, and then went to sleep.

Bear Mansion.

Xiong Chumo has already moved into a separate courtyard with his mother, younger brother and sister, while Xiong's father lives in the main courtyard with his concubine.

If it weren't for the bad reputation he had, he would have wanted to buy a yard of his own and bring his mother and others to live there.

"Abao, don't worry about that. Just study hard and be loyal to the court." Mother Xiong said.

Xiong Chumo nodded, "Don't worry, mother. I will."

In the Zhang Mansion, Zhang Zhong was kneeling in the main courtyard. People were coming and going around him, and it seemed as if no one saw him.

After he knelt for an hour, a maid came out and said coldly, "Second Young Master, you can leave now."

Zhang Zhong kowtowed, "Thank you, mother."

He stood up and stepped back, slowly walking away towards his own yard.

He has lived like this for more than ten years, so there is no unnecessary expression.

His entry into the Gentlemen's Courtyard seemed like a trivial matter in the Zhang family, and no one was even allowed to mention it because someone would be unhappy.

At the Liu family, Liu Zizai and Liu Yuguan are playing chess.

"Grandfather, is there something strange going on in Junziyuan?" Liu Zizai couldn't help but ask.

Liu Yuguan smiled and said, "Did you feel it?"

There are no fools in Shengjing City. Fools cannot survive here.

Liu Zizai shrugged, "Prince Yuansheng is such a powerful figure, but he insisted on entering this gentleman's courtyard. I don't believe that she is just being angry."

Liu Yuguan nodded with satisfaction, "It's good that you understand, so when you go in, watch more and talk less."

Liu Zizai curled his lips, thought for a moment, and whispered curiously, "Can you tell me, grandson, is she your Majesty's child?"

Liu Yuguan teased him, "Why? My grandson's love star has also moved? Are you so curious about her?"

Liu Zizai glared, "Grandfather, please don't tease me. I was thinking that if that's the case, shouldn't we get closer?"

"What if not?" Liu Yuguan made his move.

"Then I have to maintain a friendly relationship with my grandson. He is not ordinary."

"Oh, why is she special? Aren't people saying that she is arrogant and conceited?" Liu Yuguan asked with a smile.

Liu Zizai dropped his black piece, "I don't believe you didn't see it. She first took over the Sunan Army and the Xiao Family Army, and then the people around her, as well as the Beizhou personnel. She planned every step carefully. How can this be the skill of a reckless man?"

"In today's competition, she first demonstrated her martial arts skills and then used the Four Sentences of Hengqu. Tsk, I admire her skills."

Liu Yuguan smiled and said, "Okay, go and rest early, and study hard after you go in."

At the Feng family, Feng Liyan was sitting restlessly in the study.

"Min'er, you missed this Junziyuan. Your father always feels uncomfortable." He felt like he had missed a great opportunity.

Feng Min coughed softly, his energy somewhat weakened by the pain from the illness, "Sister has entered, we will know sooner or later."

Feng Liyan frowned and rubbed his temple with a headache, "That girl has become alienated from us, especially after she knew your background."

Feng Min said calmly: "She will understand. We are the only relatives she has."

Xiao Zhixing soon received a summary of the reactions from various parties, which was delivered by Yin Yi himself.

This gave her a deeper understanding of the capabilities of the Anbu. Did they have ears in every government office? Could they even eavesdrop on confidential conversations?

The conversation between the Li family, the Xiong family, and the Huo family was exactly the same as what she saw in the live broadcast.

Yin Yi explained, "The underground passages in the entire imperial city can lead to various places. With the help of the Turtle Breathing Technique and the power of the Listening Slave, we can grasp the news of each prefecture."

Xiao Zhixing was only surprised for a moment, "Well done, let everyone be more careful."

He told him to bring the simple map of the underground passage next time and waved goodbye to him.

Xiao Zhixing looked at Zhao Xianyin's information. This girl was extraordinary. She was raised by Zhao Kun himself. If she were a boy, he would be the best in the three generations of the Zhao family.

As a result of this commotion, the people in Shengjing City keenly discovered that something was wrong. They all suspected that there was a secret in Junziyuan. Unfortunately, who could have imagined that there was such a thing as a system?

Legitimate? It's both important and unimportant to her.

The most important thing is this damn Emperor System.

As for the Jiang family, there was a visiting card in front of her, written personally by Jiang Tan, the eldest son of the Jiang family.

They are blatantly coming to pay a visit and don't want to hide anymore?

On the surface, she has nothing to do with the Jiang family, even though everyone knows that she might really be Xiao Yan's daughter.

But she never admitted it herself, so the Jiang family could pretend not to know.

What does the Jiang family mean by this?

At this time, someone in the barrage actually posted a picture of the secret passage in the imperial city.

[Yellow barrage: The underground passages in the ancient imperial city have become our tourist attraction. Hehe, it’s fun inside, with all kinds of activities. ]

【Green barrage: Wow, does that mean there are also some in Xijing here? 】

[Red Barrage: We also have such legends here, but unfortunately many of those imperial cities have been destroyed. Thanks to the pictures sent by the brother on the third plane, our country can restore and develop them. ]

The three planes automatically numbered themselves, the red plane was number one, the green plane was number two, and the yellow plane was number three. After debate, the minority obeyed the majority and it was decided.

Xiao Zhixing happily took the map of the secret passage. She wanted to see if there was anything hidden in the map provided by Yin Yi?

On Zhao Yunqi's side, the Emperor System couldn't help but get annoyed, "With Xiao Zhixing doing this, your ministers must be suspicious of the Gentlemen's Courtyard."

Zhao Yunqi said calmly, "They have had suspicions for a long time, but now they are more certain. This is good. Their outstanding children can enter the Gentlemen's Courtyard, and we have more choices."

The Emperor System hummed, "Next, study for three to six months, and then-"

Zhao Yun asked curiously, "Are you sure you will be fair and just?"

The Emperor System snorted coldly, "That is the highest principle I set. I cannot violate it myself. How dare you doubt me?"

Zhao Yunqi was helpless. "I just want to remind you that Xiao Zhixing and the others have also gone in. You should think about whether you can bypass them in the subsequent procedures. So it's best to make preparations first."

The Emperor System was jumping up and down with a crackling sound. "You want me to include them in the selection process?!"

Zhao Yunqi shook his head. "It's not me who wants to do that, but Xiao Zhixing would. With her tyranny, if we dare to treat her differently, she will dare to sabotage us. Do you believe it?"

The Emperor System was spinning frantically, and he was obviously very angry. "I told you, I told you - a disaster! A huge disaster! I should have killed her earlier!"

Zhao Yunqi shrugged, "There's nothing we can do. This trouble has already appeared, and there may be a bigger trouble hidden behind her, Xiao Yan. She is now a heavenly master, how can we kill her? You should think about what to do."

The Emperor System had to calm down. "There are only 13 places available. Only the top 13 in the ranking competition are eligible. I have set the rules. If she can't reach them, can she still blame me?"

Zhao Yunqi nodded, "That's why I asked if you would be fair. In that case, let's just sit back and watch the show and let them all perform on their own."

The Emperor System snorted, "I want to see if she will object."

Xiao Zhixing: Of course. Am I Xiao Zhixing the one who doesn’t cause trouble?

As for the 13 places?
