The answer is not that I dare, but that I will.

Yun Su was shocked and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Okay, I'll accompany you."

Xiao Zhuo gave him a complicated look, "This road is difficult. Are you sure you want to accompany me instead of joking?"

"Is it more difficult than me becoming a country boy in trouble? When I say I will accompany you, I mean I will accompany you. When you sit in that position, remember to find me a virtuous and dignified girl to marry me. I want to have a family full of children and grandchildren.

people."

Xiao Zhuo was amused by him and said loudly, "Okay, it's a deal."

"It's a deal."

Yun Miaomiao and Gu Fengqing heard their noise and looked back, and both of them smiled in unison.

The next day, Yun Miaomiao got up early. She still had the chicken soup from last night. She put the soaked millet into the pot and cooked it into porridge, then poured it out and let it cool.

Yun Su and Xiao Zhuo also changed their clothes and came out of the room. Their faces were tense without a trace of smile, and there were bruises visible to the naked eye. It was obvious that they had not slept well all night.

Yun Miaomiao and Gu Fengqing had a tacit understanding and no one said anything about it. After eating, Gu Fengqing had Qing Mo hook up the carriage, and they got in the carriage and walked towards the gate of the palace.

In the eighth year of Jinyun, the imperial examination of Tongzong changed!

In the past, when Xiao Zhuo took part in the joint examination and the provincial examination, he always put something on his face to change his appearance, and others couldn't help but come. Today, not only did his face have nothing on it, but he looked more delicate.

He was wearing a green robe, and his blue silk hair was tied up high. His whole body exuded majesty, making people unable to help but take a few more glances.

"Look, that person is the number one in the test. He's really good-looking."

"Yes, it is said that he is the direct disciple of the dean of Ruishan Academy."

"Get out of the way, get out of my way, young master." A familiar voice came, and Yun Miaomiao and Gu Fengqing couldn't help but look back.

Xu Shaoqing held a fan in his hand and looked a bit unruly, dressed in red and swaggering towards Yun Miaomiao.

Seeing this, Yun Su pulled Yun Miaomiao's sleeve and said, "Sister, Brother Xu is ranked third in the test. He is only two places behind Xiao Zhuo. He is really not a fool."

"Hey, hey, I'm just listening here. Do you think I'm deaf?" Xu Shaoqing held up a fan and was about to hit Yun Su's head. Yun Miaomiao grabbed his hand in advance, "What are you doing?"

Xu Shaoqing curled his lips and complained dissatisfiedly, "He scolded me first."

Xu Shaoqing actually got third place in the exam. Yun Miaomiao was quite surprised, "Are you really the third place, not another Xu Shaoqing with the same name?"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Shaoqing quit immediately. He raised his chin with contempt in his eyes, "There is no other person named Xu Shaoqing in the world. My ability is not something I just talk about casually. Yun Miaomiao, what are you doing now?"

Divorce Gu Fengqing and you still have a chance to marry me. But when I enter the Jinluan Palace and win the top prize, you won't have such a good chance."

Yun Miaomiao exclaimed, "My husband-in-law was already a Jinshi at the age of twelve, and the number one scholar at the age of fifteen."

Xu Shaoqing's face was livid with pain. He is sixteen this year.

Why are you just one year older?

Xu Shaoqing glared at Gu Fengqing at the side angrily, and said in a mocking tone, "I heard that you have severed ties with the Gu family?"

Gu Fengqing glanced at him, "The bloody storm in the Jinluan Palace is probably the most unforgettable scene for you. Xu Shaoqing, you should open your eyes and take a good look."

Yun Miaomiao looked sideways at Gu Fengqing. He was giving Xu Shaoqing some advice, "The palace door is open. You can go in quickly."

They could only wait outside the palace, and the rest was a battlefield for Xiao Zhuo alone.

Xiao Zhuo stood in the center of the palace gate, his eyes as bright as a torch. The last time he came out of here, the position of prince became someone else's. Today he entered here to get his position back.

The eunuch in front stood on the high steps, holding a white whisk in his hand, looking down at the people underground.

"Xuan, Jinke Jinshi came to the palace to meet~"

The long street was long, Xiao Zhuo lifted up his robe, stepped forward step by step, straightened his back and walked forward. As he walked forward, his heart became calmer and calmer.

"Are you the Huiyuan of this Spring Palace... Your Highness the Crown Prince?" The eunuch stood in front, wanting to show Xiao Zhuo the way. His flattering smile froze in place when he saw the other person's appearance.

Xu Shaoqing stood close and when he heard these words, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Zhuo. He saw the amazing aura on his body. What Gu Fengqing just said came to his mind. He suddenly understood that these guys are really...

Don't die.

Xu Shaoqing stepped forward and blocked Xiao Zhuo, "Eunuch Xu, the emperor has summoned us in the Jinluan Palace. It is our first time to come to the palace, so we have to trouble you to lead the way for us."

Eunuch Xu looked up at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched unavoidably, "Yes, Young Master Xu, please come this way."

If Xu Shaoqing comes here for the first time, Eunuch Xu will not believe it even if he beats himself to death. After today, the situation in the palace will probably change.

He didn't dare to offend the Xu family, so he could only lead the way obediently.

The others were not like Xiao Zhuo and Xu Shaoqing. They were very nervous. They didn't dare to raise their heads and look around. They looked in a daze. No one noticed the relationship between Xiao Zhuo, Xu Shaoqing and Xu Eunuch in front of them.

dialogue.

In the Jinluan Hall, hundreds of officials stood on both sides, and sitting in the middle was their sage and majestic emperor.

Xiao Zhuo stood at the door, not knowing what he was thinking on his face. Eunuch Xu sighed in his heart. His Highness the Crown Prince originally said that he was trapped in a mountain den by bandits and died of illness. When he was sent back, there was only an urn. The Emperor said nothing.

He was sent to the imperial mausoleum, and then turned around and gave birth to a new prince with the imperial concubine, and publicized the new prince vigorously. Now no one thought that His Highness the prince, who was already a handful of ashes, not only came back alive, but also came back from the dead.

I climbed all the way up the imperial examination.

Face to face confrontation with the emperor, there were many people from His Royal Highness in the court. Eunuch Xu was so uneasy that he did not dare to go to the emperor, so he could only stand obediently at the door.

"Jinke Jinshi has arrived!"

The emperor lazily opened his eyes, his gaze indifferent, "Xuan."

His voice echoed in the hall, majestic and deep.

Except for Xiao Zhuo and Xu Shaoqing, everyone else's faces turned pale, without any blood. This was the first time they had seen such a big scene, and the first time they had met Long Yan. They accidentally said the wrong thing.

Who is not afraid of losing his head?

Xiao Zhuo straightened his back, the invisible pressure suddenly changed, and his momentum became even more amazing. Eunuch Xu looked at Xiao Zhuo's back, and he was filled with emotions. The dragon's power on the prince's body was even more powerful than that of the emperor. This time, the emperor might be afraid

Can't stop him.

He glanced at Jinluan Palace and took a deep breath. After all, he was getting old and his heart became timid.

In the court, except for the emperor, everyone else looked forward to the top scholar of Jinke. Everyone looked outside. Xiao Zhuo was the champion this time and was the first to bear the brunt. Xu Shaoqing

She was walking on his right side with a calm expression.

Many people came close, and when they saw Xiao Zhuo's appearance, they all took a breath.

Naturally, other people also heard the sound of squeezing, thinking that the other party was good-looking, and looked over with interest. When that shocking face appeared in front of them, their whole bodies were as if struck by lightning.

"This~"

"how come?"

There were a lot of sighs, and the emperor couldn't help but glance at the person standing below. Just such a casual glance made him stand up from the dragon throne in a hurry.

"Zhuo'er?"

No, it's impossible. Xiao Zhuo is already dead, but he personally sent his ashes to the imperial mausoleum. How could he still be alive?

Xiao Zhuo stood close and saw the expression on the emperor's face clearly.

"Father, my son is back."

Xiao Zhuo bowed his hands in a salute, with a faint smile on his lips and a hint of teasing and ridicule in the corners of his eyes, which directly hurt the emperor's heart.

"Where did you come from, monsters and ghosts? My prince is dead a long time ago. Who are you? You dare to pretend to be my prince? Come, bring him down and chop him down!" The emperor came back to his senses and said angrily.

.

Everyone present was also awakened by his angry shout, "Here, His Royal Highness is back?"

Several of them were aides to the Crown Prince's East Palace, and several of them were teachers of the Crown Prince. Because of the premature death of the Crown Prince, everyone had become decadent. The concubine group was promoted by the Emperor, and they were constantly suppressed, but they firmly believed that one day they would

Although they were promising, they did not expect that their Crown Prince would be back.

"It's the prince. Your highness, you are finally back."

"I finally got His Highness the Crown Prince back."

Xiao Zhuo's eyes were slightly moist, "Teacher, Grand Tutor, I am the one who has made you worry. When I was surrounded by bandits on the road, I was fortunately saved by a nearby farmer. I was seriously injured and could not walk even after I recovered.

After a long journey, I later recovered and found out that my father announced my death to the world, and I did not come back. This time I came back for the sake of the suffering people. My father, I am a son-in-law, a son-in-law.

It’s not a monster, and I’m not dead. As for who impersonated someone else’s ashes as my palace, please let me know clearly.”

The prince's words not only comforted the hearts of the old ministers who relied on him, but also directly pointed out that there was a villain at the beginning, and asked the emperor to issue an order to find out.

The emperor clenched his fists. The eunuch on the side saw that his back molars were almost crushed, so he knew that the emperor was angry.

He suddenly put on a smiling face, "Is it really my Zhuo'er?"

Xiao Zhuo lifted up his robe and said, "Father, my son is back. He has a birthmark on his chest. You, your mother and concubine, and many other people know about it. Take a look."

One of them opened the clothes on his chest, revealing the location of the birthmark. When the others saw his face, they already believed that he was the prince. Now that they saw that he had the birthmark exposed, they were even more convinced that this person was the original prince.

Already.

"It's really the prince, my highness the prince is back."

"Great~"

The emperor's face suddenly darkened, "Okay, okay, it's really my Zhuo'er who is back. Come and call the Queen. Zhuo'er is back. Since you left, your mother has been worried about your safety. Later,
