Warm Life - C243
Sun Ye Xuan had left behind a question for Sun Meng’s family that had been covered in dust for more than ten years. With regards to this question, she couldn’t ask Imperial Scholar Feng, but she could ask her own husband. Sun Meng Shi could imagine Sun Yuanjie’s nervous appearance. After all, the current Sun Meng Clan was too young and beautiful. It was even better than when they had married him a dozen years ago. She had a charm that young girls didn’t have.
Sun Yuanjie usually valued the Sun family. What left a deep impression on Sun Ye Xuan was that their life had been so awkward during her first time here. Sun Yuanjie did so much work every day, yet she still didn’t let Sun Meng suffer any grievances. Every day, he had to say to Sun Meng, ‘I let you suffer!’ At that time, Sun Ye Xuan was extremely envious.
As everyone was cheering and waiting, the results of the Imperial examinations were out. The day the announcement was made, Sun Ye Xuan and Sun Ling Pang went. Sun Meng and Sun Yuanjie did not go. Sun Ye Shi was not allowed to go.
Sun Yeshi had come for the month’s worth of events that day. Her stomach was hurting and she did not have the strength to squeeze into a crowd of agitated men. As for the Sun family’s servants, they actually wanted to share the worries for their master, but Sun Lingzi and Sun Ye Xuan did not need them. Some things have to be experienced personally, and the narration is not as impressive as it seems. After all, this matter was related to Sun Lingpeng’s life.
“Big brother, are you nervous?” Sun Ye Xuan looked at Sun Lingzi and said.
Amongst the many scholars, Sun Lingzi was like a shining point. No one could ignore his good looks. If he was wearing gorgeous clothes, even if someone said he was the Crown Prince, he would believe it.
“Nope.” Sun Lingjiao said: “Without me it’s fine, wouldn’t it be better to go back to live with you?” Father and mother will definitely be very happy. ”
“I don’t believe that’s what you’re really thinking.” Sun Ye Xuan helplessly smiled.
“The results are out. Quick, look at them.” The noisy crowd suddenly quietened down. Everyone stretched their necks and stared at the list outside of the examination hall.
Sun Ye Xuan had good eyes, she could see even from a distance. She searched from the front until she didn’t see Sun Lingping’s name. At this moment, her expression became heavy.
Sun Lingping remained calm, as if he didn’t see the loss of Sun Yanxuan. After Sun Ye Xuan’s mood had persisted for a long time, Sun Ling Yang rubbed her hair and said, “The top fifty will be on the other rankings. Top of the rankings, bottom of the list. Now, it was just an ordinary High Scholar. If you see me up there, you’re really going to cry. ”
“Big Brother, you clearly know what I’m worried about, but you actually didn’t tell me. This is too hateful! ” Sun Ye Xuan said angrily when she heard this.
“You look nice with that frown.” Sun Lingyang smiled and said, “Now is the time for us to focus on our health. Don’t blink your eyes, you’ve got it right.”
There was another commotion in the crowd. It turned out that someone had really come over with another ranking. At this moment, there were already people crying their hearts out.
Ten years of hard reading just for the results of this moment. After working hard for so many days and nights and going through so many hardships, he was still disappointed. Their mental fortitude was already considered good that they didn’t break down. Compared to the little princes and princes of the modern era, their performance was enough for her to praise them tens of thousands of times.
The crowd had dispersed. Sun Ye Xuan pulled Sun Linglang forward. When they saw Zhang Xiushan in front of them, they were astonished.
When Zhang Xiusheng saw them, he felt somewhat embarrassed. He pointed to the front and said, “Please enter first, the two of you.”
“No need, take a look first!” Sun Ye Xuan did not want to be crowded with this person, nor did she want to be with him.
Zhang Xiucai did not delay. He looked at the rankings from the back to the front, searching one by one. When he finished reading the last name, his face turned pale and he fell to the ground.
“No me …” How can there be no me… I was clearly working so hard, but why didn’t I exist? ” He muttered to himself, “Even if it’s just an ordinary High Scholar, as long as there’s a slot, it’ll be fine. Do you want to force me to death now?” No! I won’t let you do as you wish! “We agreed on it then. Since we’re going to blow this matter up, we’ll give me a spot.”
Sun Ye Xuan and Sun Ling Pi looked at each other. Zhang Xiusheng seemed to have said something extraordinary. However, his expression was currently unclear. When he regained his consciousness, he probably did not know what he had said either.
The others looked at Zhang Xiucai as he spoke, thinking that he couldn’t stand the thought of using lies. There were a lot of people like him who had been hit hard. This year was still considered good, as there were more suicides in the past.
Sun Ye Xuan dragged Sun Lingzi inside to look at the list, and the two of them found Sun Lingzi’s name in the first position. Knowing the result, the two of them immediately left the crowd.
“This Zhang Xiusheng, he’s really tired of living.” Sun Ye Xuan said, “The Emperor has already used this matter to achieve his goal. If he continues to cause trouble, he will only become a sacrificial pawn.”
“Forget it, since he’s courting death, we can’t help him.” Sun Lingbo said, “Go home! Now that the results are known, we shall await the summons of the Emperor. ”
“Yes.” Sun Ye Xuan was curious. She had lived in the ancient times for so long, but she had never seen a person like the Emperor, who was rumored to be someone who would ‘pass through the world to meet a woman’. I’ve heard that the current emperor is not very big. Is he a beautiful man like what the book says? If only she were a man, she could see the Emperor. There are no such ancient creatures in modern times.
“Big Brother, since you’ve won first place, you’ll surely be stronger than others in every aspect. “If you don’t look at the emperor’s family background, you’ll be the well-deserved top scholar.” Sun Ye Xuan said.
“The position of the top scholar is indeed good. I am also rushing towards that position. However, when I arrived in Beijing, I realized that it was not easy to be a top scholar. Since those nobles liked the title of top scholar so much, they might as well take it. “Whether it’s the eyes of the public, the search for flowers, or even an ordinary High Scholar, it’s all good as long as he can be highly valued by the emperor.”
Sun Ye Xuan nodded and said, “Yes! No matter how good his reputation was, it didn’t have the feeling of having power. Due to the influence of the aristocratic families, the Emperor had no choice but to select the sons of nobles to be the top scholar or the eyes of the rankings. This did not mean that the Emperor was willing to use them heavily. There were not many noble children who did real things. They were as pampered as a woman. The Emperor could not beat them, nor could he kill them. “They might as well just leave it to the side, ignore it and not give them the right to do so. Let’s just let it be useless to them and assume some unimportant positions.”
Returning to the Sun family, Sun Yuanjie and Sun Meng stretched their necks and waited. Even Sun Yeshi, who came for the first month, crawled out of bed and waited for their results.
“Why are you all so nervous? His elder brother’s title of prodigy was not for nothing. He could easily complete such a simple exam. This time, he got first place. ” Sun Ye Xuan revealed a bright smile: “Let’s congratulate our great hero! Congratulations to the great hero who will soon obtain an official position and become the pillar of support for the country. ”
“Big Bro is going to be the top scholar?” Sun Ye Shi excitedly said.
Sun Ye Shi’s body was in great condition. It was just that this was her first time coming to this kind of place, so she couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable and not used to it. Now that he had heard the good news about Sun Ye Xuan, he immediately regained his spirit.
“The top scholar, eyes and scout flowers need to be personally bestowed by the Emperor. So maybe now! If the Emperor valued the talents of other scholars more, he could also award top ten or even twenty scholars as the top scholar. What will happen to the top three, will depend on the Emperor’s mood. “
