Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

Yes, since the prince presided over this exam, the question was naturally asked by the prince.

The treasury was empty and the people were still suffering. The prince thought about how he could collect more taxes without increasing the burden on the people.

After much deliberation, I felt that this was impossible, so I came up with this topic to see if any of the new Jinshi could come up with any good ideas.

The result made him very disappointed. The papers recommended by the examiners were all solid. Most people cannot take the exam like Enron did, but they try not to achieve merit but seek no faults, so naturally they are solid. Content - He didn't feel happy at all because it didn't speak to his heart.

So I couldn't bear to look at the ones recommended by the examiners, but I flipped through the papers myself to see if there was anything I liked, so I naturally saw the one written by An Ran.

The one written by An Ran will touch the interests of many people, and the words are sharp - in fact, An Ran feels that what she writes is quite peaceful, but compared to those who are more stable, the one she writes is more sharp - so she writes No matter how good it is, the examiner will not recommend it. If the prince had not had his own ideas and would have read this test paper, or if the old emperor had graded the test paper, he would not have wasted time reading other test papers, but would have just From the test papers submitted by the examiners, the first, third, and second top names were determined, and the rest was left to the examiners. In that case, An Ran's paper would indeed not reach the emperor.

But now that An Ran's paper was seen and admired by the prince, the prince naturally would not let her paper fall into the pile of unrecommended papers.

According to the prince's wishes, a person who is in line with his own wishes, and who is talented and writes well should be selected as the number one candidate. However, he thought that it would put him at the forefront of the limelight, so he turned around and agreed. A third flower.

Since it was the prince's wish, the examiners had no objection.

It's not that they really won't object, it's just that this is the first time that the prince has come out to take charge of a larger errand. They still can't figure out his temperament, so they wait and see for the time being. Anyway, even if they choose that person as the most popular person, he will really be in the court. It's still early for them to exert their efforts. They don't have to worry about the other party's article yet, which can harm their own interests.

So thanks to the crown prince, when the results were released, the Tang family discovered that although Tang Zhixian won the Jinshi, which was very exciting, what was even more surprising was that An Ran was the top pick in high school! This was completely unexpected.

You must know that Anran did well in the last provincial examination and came in third place. But you must know that the provincial examination is taken by local people together, while the imperial examination is taken by people all over the country. Tang Anran was able to take the third place at that time. His outstanding performance, third place in the high school Jinshi list, is it not surprising?

Besides, even in the previous examination, my ranking was not that high. I don’t know how my ranking improved so much in this palace examination. If something goes wrong, I will be a monster. I’m afraid there is something fishy in this. ——Obviously, someone guessed something was wrong.

In fact, An Ran herself was also very surprised. Unlike last time, she thought it was expected. What she wrote at that time was not in line with the golden mean. She felt that it was impossible to rank high, so she really didn't. I thought about being the top pick in high school.

So at this time, the people who read the news said that she had won the third prize, and everyone in the Tang family looked beaming with joy, but she herself was a little confused.

But she reacted quickly and thanked everyone who congratulated them. Fortunately, people who congratulated them often saw the completely stunned expressions of people who had passed the exam, so An Ran's reaction was expected. , no one felt anything was wrong.

Mrs. Tang and Aunt Cai were naturally as happy and angry as they were when An Ran and Tang Zhixian passed the exam, but the difference was that An Ran did better than Tang Zhixian in the first test, and Aunt Cai couldn't accept the comparison at all. An Ran's ranking in the examination was better than that of Tang Zhixian again. This time the palace examination was even better, again and again. Although Aunt Cai was still unhappy that An Ran did better than her son, she gradually accepted that An Ran was indeed smarter than her son. fact, so he was unhappy at most, not as excited as last year when An Ran did better than Tang Zhixian for the first time.

After the results were released, all the Jinshi were received by the emperor.

Not only the emperor, but also the prince was among them.

It would be fine if there were only other people. The prince might not be interested, but he wanted to see An Ran, so even without his father Emperor Jingming's order, he would find an excuse to come and have a look, not to mention his father's permission. He came over to take a look, and naturally he came over immediately.

Not long after, all the Jinshi, led by the number one scholar, the second best scholar, and the third best scholar, came in and paid homage to the emperor.

The prince had long wanted to see who could write such a sharp and meaningful article. When he saw that Tanhua was a handsome young man about twenty years old, standing as tall as a green pine, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. I praised it, thinking that I was indeed worthy of being called the grandson of heaven. This was casual, but the character I named was so handsome, which couldn't be more suitable for the name Tanhua. Moreover, such a person is more in line with my idea of ​​virtuous people. Hope, after all, if it is an old and ugly person, like those rotten scholars, he will be disappointed.

Don't blame the Crown Prince for being pretentious, these people are all like this. Even the First Master, who has a holy name, didn't like the good-looking Wolong at the beginning, but didn't like the poor-looking Fengxiao? As for food and sex, good-looking people will always have another advantage.

The article was well written and the person was good-looking. The prince liked him immediately, so when An Ran came out of the main hall and was about to go back, there was a father-in-law at the corner who waved to her. An Ran pointed at herself and the man nodded immediately. , although An Ran didn't know why there was a eunuch in the White House looking for her, she still followed the instructions and passed by, just because she was more vigilant. After all, the harem was not an ordinary place, and she couldn't cause any trouble.

When the father-in-law saw her coming, he said with a smile on his face: "Tanhua Lang, my young master wants to meet you."

"I wonder who my father-in-law's master is..." An Ran said hesitantly.

She couldn't be deceived and enter the harem with this person, otherwise she would die somehow.

The man saw her hesitation and said hurriedly: "The young master is the prince."

When An Ran heard that it was the prince, he couldn't help but be surprised, wondering how the prince would meet him.

At that moment, An Ran couldn't help but ask the father-in-law. The father-in-law smiled and said, "I don't know either. Your Highness only asked me to come over and invite Tang Tanhua."

Since it was the prince's invitation, An Ran couldn't shirk it, so he immediately followed the father-in-law. Soon he came to a group of palaces. An Ran took a look and found that it was the prince's palace, so he felt relieved and secretly said that it was not a harem. Just fine.

Entering the palace, An Ran saw the prince he had just met standing under the dripping eaves.
