Hou Xiaomei's behavior immediately made Qin Guogong, Qin Han and others look pale, and they didn't know how to end it.
The interrogator was also angry.
"The new No. 1 scholar is so arrogant. It seems I can't move. You are disobeying the imperial edict."
You're welcome, Monkey Girl. If you don't get recognition, what's the point of being an emperor?
"Please come back."
Hou Xiaomei shows no mercy at all, and this messenger is also extremely arrogant. He has been doing this for decades, and he doesn't get a reward every time he delivers good news?
Today, not only did I not receive any reward, but I was also expelled as a guest. This is truly an anecdote for the ages.
The lobby fell silent for a while.
"Nonsense, nonsense, really nonsense."
Mr. Qin stood up and paced back and forth in a hurry, "Qin Han, Qin Han, don't you care about your little sister?"
"No, we can't let this matter go like this."
Little Sister Hou said: "Please father, please seek justice for me. I am not who the servants say I am."
Mr. Qin was so angry that he went crazy, "Little sister, how do you clarify this matter? Do you want me to tell people that I bribed the officials to let you sign up?"
Do you know that this is a crime of deceiving the emperor, and the entire Duke of Qin will be implicated."
Hou Xiaomei was stunned, she ignored the cruelty of the king's law.
But should we just swallow it like this?
Hou Xiaomei said: "Father, I don't care anyway, you know in your heart that I got the top prize by relying on my true ability, and I know even better in my heart. I don't want to hear any gossip anymore."
Otherwise, I will never take office as the top pick."
This is also difficult. How can we block people's voices when they are talking? How can we block people's hearts when people are silent and talk in their hearts?
For a while, the Qin Mansion lobby became quiet again.
Not long after the informant left, he turned back.
Someone outside the house reported that Mr. Zuo Xiang has arrived...
Duke Guo of Qin was shocked and quickly stood up to greet him.
After some polite remarks, the Prime Minister looked at Little Sister Monkey and said, "You are Little Sister Monkey."
Little Sister Hou bowed and said, "Please Prime Minister, please do justice."
Prime Minister Zuo nodded and said: "Very good, very good. He is an upright man. He is exactly the kind of talent I am proud of.
Now I ask a question and you answer it in front of everyone and win people's hearts."
Hou Xiaomei's eyes lit up, she lowered her head and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zuoxiang."
Duke Guo of Qin immediately became nervous.
In fact, he had always believed that it was impossible for Hou Xiaomei to win the top prize in a new subject purely based on her strength.
When he gave the gift, he told the examiner: "We should try our best to give Little Sister Hou good grades.
In this way, Little Sister Monkey will have confidence and work harder next time.”
But what he didn't expect was that the examiner actually misunderstood and gave him the top pick... Let's just go with the flow, how good it is.
At this time, the assessment will be re-evaluated. If Hou Xiaomei fails to answer one question, isn't this going to be a dead end?
The Prime Minister Zuo said: "I am not authoritative to conduct the assessment by myself, so today I brought all the examiners here and we have a public assessment."
Qin Han's face turned pale.
Seeing Qin and Han like this, Hou Xiaomei was completely disappointed.
"Am I so distrustful of you? Where was your tenderness and affection back then?"
The Prime Minister Zuo waved his hand, and some officials came in from outside the mansion. All of these officials were examiners, and every one of them was good.
"Everyone, now we, the courtiers, have to rectify the name of the new female champion, Little Sister Monkey.
But if it really does not live up to its name, the new number one scholar will be canceled immediately and someone else will be blamed."
Little Sister Hou bowed her head and said, "My lords, I have a request."
"Oh, I have any request, but it doesn't hurt to ask."
"Master Zuo Xiang, this little girl is not talented, but she can't stand such gossip. Even if the servants, servants, and uninformed people of the Qin Mansion believe me, this is only a small-scale recognition of me.
But I want the entire Xuanyuan Dragon City to know my real name."
After saying this, she glanced sadly at Qin Han. The uninformed person was talking about Qin Han.
Duke Qin's face turned pale and he didn't know what to say.
If Hou Xiaomei really fails to answer the examiners' assessment, then it is very likely that the entire Qin Mansion will be implicated.
Is there such a test for non-talented people? Where does her confidence come from? Could it be that she is a lunatic?
The Prime Minister Zuo took a deep look at Little Sister Hou, smiled and said: "Okay. Not only will I conduct a public assessment, but I will also try to invite your Majesty to a banquet to participate in this exam together.
Let’s join the qualifiers of the campaign tomorrow.”
After speaking, the left prime minister led a group of officials out of the Qin Mansion.
"Sir, look at the wife you married. She wants to bring the Qin family into the abyss and have the entire Qin family ransacked and executed. Humph..."
The old man flicked his sleeves and turned around and entered the inner hall.
Qin Han said ferociously: "You are satisfied."
"Brother Han, why don't you choose to believe me once?"
Hou Xiaomei's eyes were filled with tears. She still had real feelings for Qin Han. As for Sun Wukong, that was another demand.
"Believe you, why? With your few months of poverty? Are you dreaming, you?"
Hou Xiaomei was heartbroken. The person she loved most in the past now had no trust in her at all.
The door in her heart was completely closed, she turned to look at Sun Wukong not far behind her, and suddenly smiled.
Only Sun Wukong understood what it meant.
The pavilion of the Qin Mansion is surrounded by a lotus pond. It is a good place to admire the moon, but now it is only Sun Wukong and her.
"Why don't you believe them?"
Sun Wukong looked at Little Sister Monkey and said, "Because even though you have human appearance, human blood, and even human character, you are actually still a monster."
"But what's the difference between me and other people now?"
Little Sister Monkey was very unconvinced.
Sun Wukong picked up the wine glass and looked at the bright moon in the sky and said: "No matter what the demon's ability is, or whether you really have the talent to pass the first prize, demons are nothing compared to humans... Do you understand?"
Little Sister Monkey fell into deep thought.
At this time, Sun Wukong looked a little ferocious, "Because human beings can only achieve their goals through intrigues and despicable means when they have the ability not to use force.
You said that the left and right ministers have unparalleled power. When they were not moving, they had to step on the bones of many people to reach their current official position. And the people who died in their hands may still treat them as friends.
"
Finally, Sun Wukong looked at her and said: "People are not that simple.
And the more powerful the person, the more complex the person, for example, 'the Rishi or the Buddha.'"
After saying that, Sun Wukong patted her on the shoulder and left.
On the second day, Sun Wukong came to the Aolai Palace independently.
This palace is also magnificent, but it is far from the heaven.
Sun Wukong knew that the one thousand people present were not all of them. There were many thousand people all over the country in Aolai. Even many people who passed the customs yesterday were assigned to other places for preliminaries.
The emperor did not show up, only officials.
It's a coincidence that this official is the fat official responsible for Sun Wukong's registration.
At this time, he looked at everyone, patted his belly and said, "Everyone, what about this second assessment? It's very simple. Please take a look..."
Everyone followed his fingers and saw that it was a cauldron.
