If it is said that Shaoxuan won the crown for the first time because Shaoxuan was older and had an advantage among the young Wu Xiucai, then in the second trial, this age advantage no longer exists.

Not to mention that most of the nobles who participated in the martial arts at the same time were his age, and even other martial arts candidates were mostly in their weaker years.

Under such circumstances, it is a rare joy to be the leader of the provincial examination, especially in Tianjing, where talents are abundant.

However, as the saying goes, blessings come with misfortunes, the Seventh Prince, who has not been happy with his beauties for a long time, discovered that someone was spreading some unusual words.

Most of the rumors were good, and they all said that Shaoxuan was talented, he was taught by the monks of Zhenguo Temple, his martial arts were extraordinary, and he was well read in military books, both civil and military.

Some people even said that he came from a family of military generals, and his father and brother were both under the command of Duke An, so he himself stayed with the Seventh Prince to accompany him.

Shaoxuan martial arts has indeed improved rapidly, but his weakness lies in the essay test.Even with the teachings of Qi Jing and Luo Qin, he has not learned Chinese since he was a child, and it is very touching to be able to write clearly.

He was able to pass the essay test in the infield, relying entirely on his amazing memory to recite the book of war, and then select the important content to list, obviously it is not a brilliant literary talent.

As for Shaoxuan's background, Qi Jing knew it best, and didn't care about such absurd guesses at first.

But the rumors became more and more intense, and later they even spread false rumors and became more and more absurd. People with a discerning eye heard that it was false, but some people still believed it.

Qi Jing quickly discovered the unusualness of this matter, and he realized that someone wanted to kill Shaoxuan.

Most of this group of military examiners wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the imperial court to increase their troops to actually show their face in front of His Majesty.

Especially those honorable disciples, who would rather not use Yin En and come here to take the martial arts exam, naturally they have a lot of calculations in their hearts.

Now a little-known kid from the Seventh Prince's Mansion stole their limelight, if they let him go on rampant, he might be robbed of the spotlight in the palace examination.

As a member of the royal family, Qi Jing couldn't understand the pride and self-satisfaction of these nobles. The better outsiders spread Shaoxuan, the more they would be envious or even dissatisfied.

So spreading good words about a person may not necessarily mean liking him, respecting him, or really doing his best... On the contrary, it may be trying to ruin him.

These rumors easily arouse the jealousy of Shaoxuan Tong Kewu Juren is only one, and there is another.

The higher people climb, the more they worry about falling.If Shaoxuan performed well in the general and imperial examinations, then it would be fine.

But if he loses, the words of praise in the past will soon turn into words of ridicule, and those who disliked Shaoxuan at the beginning will add fuel to the flames and step on them a few times.

When Shaoxuan turns from a genius to a mediocre person trying to catch fame, then he will really be sitting in the house, and the disaster will come from the sky.

Knowing the truth of it, the Seventh Prince, who used to like to taunt the most, fell silent.

Although he knew that Shaoxuan would not think of him in the unexpected world at all, but Qi Jing felt distressed.

When he was in the Chongwen Hall and the East Campus, whenever others took the initiative to mention Shaoxuan, he would take it with him in a few sentences, and he was completely unwilling to mention anything more.

Qi Jing buried her head in her books and practiced her martial arts, as if the Seventh Prince was about to take part in the imperial examination.

The sixth prince Qi Zhuo had never dealt with him before, seeing this scene, he naturally wanted to confront him.

Knowing that Lao Qi didn't want to talk too much, he wanted to come over and say a few more words: "Ah Jing, this little beauty in your house is really amazing... It seems that she won three yuan in a row, and it's just around the corner."

Qi Jing raised his head and glanced at his sixth brother, and retorted rather disapprovingly: "The palace test is held by the emperor himself, the test in the palace is extraordinary, it is unknown whether he can be on the list, who has full confidence in getting a good ranking , Brother Huang, please speak carefully."

Ordinary people often wish their nephews and nephews to participate in scientific examinations, and they often wish "three yuan in succession", but when it comes to Qi Jing, they are raised to the point where they need to be "cautious".

The sixth prince hated him for his eloquent tongue, and couldn't help laughing angrily when he heard the words: "No matter what, he passed the two tests, and he was the leader. Such a capable person is very rare. Blessed be Ah Jing."

When Qi Jing heard him praise Shaoxuan, he immediately felt that it was not a good intention, and unconsciously became on guard.

He was about to say a few words of modesty, but the sixth prince suddenly found something interesting and stopped pestering Qi Jing.

Qi Zhuo patted him on the shoulder, and called his acquainted noble sons to hide aside and talk, and repeated his old tricks, intentionally making his words big and small, and his descriptions were secretive, in order to attract people's curiosity.

Qi Jing knew his virtues a long time ago, and didn't want to care about him at first, but it was a little difficult to calm down when it involved Shaoxuan, and he was not as nonchalant about his own affairs as usual.

Taining Hou's Mansion is related to An Guogong's Mansion, and the eldest son Zhou Li has always been friends with the Seventh Prince. Seeing the provocative appearance of the Sixth Prince just now, he murmured in his heart: What does His Highness want to do?

Different from ordinary noble children, he is the son of the Marquis, and his future future depends entirely on His Majesty's grace. In addition, he is introverted and not impulsive, unlike some people who are easily incited, so he did not participate in this year's martial arts. He doesn't care about whether the people in the seventh prince's mansion are the leader or not.

The concubine sons of the Marquis of Taining won the Martial Examination. Although their rankings were mixed, they are preparing for the next general examination and palace examination.

"Your Highness Seventh Highness, His Highness Sixth..." He seemed to have something in his words.

Qi Jing picked up the scroll on the table, and said with a nonchalant face: "Sixth brother always likes to say half and hide half of what he says, so that people can guess... I just don't guess."

……

Back at the mansion, Qi Jing's tense mood immediately eased when he saw Xiao Shi pestering Shao Xuan about martial arts.

The little guy was sitting next to Shaoxuan with little Chiyu carefully in his arms. He raised his head and looked at Shaoxuan with burning eyes. When he heard Qi Jing coming back, he turned his head and called "brother".

"Brother Shaoxuan's speech is so meaningless, why don't you get tired of listening to it?" Qi Jing walked over and patted Little Eleven's little head.

It wasn't that he deliberately belittled Shaoxuan's ability to tell stories, it was that the other party didn't have the slightest talent in this area.

If the Seventh Prince could describe ordinary and ordinary things in ups and downs and splendor, he would be able to describe the obviously passionate martial arts as well-regulated and without climax at all.

However, what Xiao Shiyi listened to was not the content, but the excitement, so he didn't care about Brother Shaoxuan's expressionless face and plain language.

As long as Shaoxuan mentioned a scene, his little head would deliberately start to make up.

If there is a concept, I think about the scene, and if there is no concept, I just think about it. In short, I never get tired of it.

However, since my brother asked the question sincerely, how could the little sticky bag let him go, and immediately rushed over, muttering: "Brother, tell me, brother will tell Eleven."

It looks like a little girl who won't let go if she gets entangled.

If other people made such a request and used him as a storyteller, how could the seventh prince care about him.

But the little thing in front of him is not someone else, Qi Jing did not refuse.

Although he thought in his heart, "It's not that I participated in the martial arts, I don't know what happened", but he still opened his mouth.

Qi Laoqi, who is extremely talented, quickly compiled a chapter-style reader based on the version he had heard from Shaoxuan before.

At the end, even Chongjiu and Qiuxi listened with gusto, completely forgetting that this should be Master Shaoxuan's personal experience.

As for the merman who knew the truth, not to mention Qi Jing made him into the image of the hero at the moment, even if he described him as a salted fish turning over, a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, he didn't have any objections, and he still had to pass tea to him. He moistens his throat.

……

After finally dismissing his younger brother who was not easy to deal with, Qi Jing finally had time to talk to Shaoxuan about what happened at Chongwen Museum during the day.

"These messengers may be thinking about this..."

Shaoxuan asked: "What idea?"

Qi Jing murmured: "They want you to be famous enough to attract enough attention from your father, and then they will ask me for someone... and also want to see if they can inspire you to feel proud and complacent, and then you will be considered for the imperial examination." Even if you get a good ranking, you may leave me at any time."

Ordinary people don't know Shaoxuan's identity, but it is not difficult for nobles like Qi Zhuo and others to find out Shaoxuan's life experience.

According to the false identity they found, Shaoxuan actually has no deep connection with the Seventh Prince's Mansion and An Guo Gong's Mansion.

Since he is not the nephew of An Guogong's general or his subordinates as the outside rumors say, his loyalty depends entirely on his personal character.

It is said that the relationship of interest is the most solid relationship, so the relationship between Shaoxuan and the Seventh Prince's Mansion is naturally not as solid as the family's honor and disgrace is tied to the Anguo Mansion.

If Shaoxuan's ability is mediocre, and he still has to rely on the Seventh Prince or An Guo Gongfu for his future future, it is obviously too early to establish his own family.

But it happened that he had just seen his edge, and if he could get ahead in the palace examination, he would not have to worry about his way out.

If Shaoxuan was an ordinary person, he would inevitably feel complacent because of the praise of others, and maybe he would no longer be willing to submit to the Seventh Prince's family and become a general with no way out.

You know, the Seventh Prince has not awakened his martial arts, so he is doomed to miss the throne. Even if he becomes king in the future, what can he do as a general of the palace.But those who have ambitions and ambitions in their hearts will probably have two hearts.

Even if this time he didn't choose to abandon the Seventh Prince immediately and seek another career, or the Seventh Prince was unwilling to let him go and tried to force him to work by his side, who knows if he would feel unwilling or even resentful in his heart?

As long as there is a gap, there is a way of separation.

It's a pity, what they didn't expect was that the connection between Shaoxuan and the Seventh Prince's Mansion was not due to future ambitions, wealth and splendor.

No one else can give what Shaoxuan wants, only Qi Jing can satisfy him.

"I'm worried now, my father still loves talents."

Qi Jing is very aware of how troubled his father has been about maritime affairs and disaster relief recently, and also understands the truth that the emperor really wants someone to be a courtier and son, so how can he shirk it?

Although he had planned to show his importance to Shaoxuan in front of his father, it couldn't stop his father from admiring talented civil servants and generals.

At that time, even if His Majesty abandons Shaoxuan because of him, others will inevitably discuss it.

He said that the Seventh Prince didn't care about the people in Laiyi Peninsula, and only thought about his own safety and comfort.

In other words, he cruelly obstructed the future of others, benefiting himself at the expense of others.

He glanced at Shaoxuan, and he focused on his own appearance, couldn't help reaching out and touching the other's face: "You are so kind, what should I do?"

Shaoxuan let him do whatever he wanted, and when he was still unsure, he said, "It's yours, and it's up to you to dispose of it."
