Fighter of the Destiny

Because of his engagement with Xu Yourong, Chen Changsheng naturally became the focus of the capital after the Ivy Banquet. The announcement made by the Bishop on his behalf was like adding fuel to the fire. Countless people were asking about everything about him. He His age, his grievances with Dongyu Shenjiang Mansion, and his level of strength are no longer secrets, so people are shocked and want to know what happened to him these days to make his strength so rapid that he can actually Won four consecutive rounds in the Grand Examination and entered the final list.

Xuanyuan Po looked at Chen Changsheng with his mouth wide open, as if he was seeing a monster. Tang Sanliu stared into his eyes and asked: What on earth did you eat? We eat together every day in the National Education Academy, do you secretly Did you turn on a small stove? Or did you steal some good things in the Herb Garden and didn't tell us?

In the quiet room in the Washing Building, the big shots were also discussing Chen Changsheng's performance today.

Did he just use the full version of Ye Shibu? Someone looked at Xu Shiji and asked.

If old men like Fei Dian or Jin Yulu were present, they who had experienced the battle with the demons could clearly identify what Chen Changsheng's unpredictable movement skills were before. Only two people, Xue Xingchuan and Xu Shiji, who had been on the northern battlefield, might know.

Xu Shiji looked indifferent and said, I have never met anyone from the Yeshi tribe on the front line.

According to intelligence, most of the Yeshi tribesmen in Xuelao City have been recruited into the intelligence agency by the mysterious black-robed master over the past few hundred years and rarely appear.

Xue Xingchuan's troops once captured two spies of the Yeshi tribe. The Yeshi tribesman who tried to assassinate His Highness Luo Luo in the spring is now being imprisoned in the prison of the Forbidden Army. He thought about Chen Changsheng's previous footwork, shook his head and said : It's not the complete version of Ye Shibu, but it already has some meaning.

People understood what he meant. The complete version of Ye Shibu could play an important role in a young-level battle like the Great Chao Trial. Xue Xingchuan thought for a while and then said: Speed ​​and movement He has done his best, and with good fortune, it is understandable that he can enter the top eight, but I don’t think he can continue to move forward.”

The top eight for the Great Imperial Examination have already been produced. There are young and strong players who have already gained a reputation like Gou Hanshi, Zhuang Changyu, Zhong Hui, and Zhexiu. There are also some surprising candidates, such as an unknown person from Saintess' Peak. A shady girl, and a student from the Star Reaching Academy that even the teaching office didn't pay much attention to.

The most unexpected thing was Chen Changsheng.

Until now, he has not been eliminated, it has exceeded everyone's imagination and seems to be unreasonable.

…

…

This makes no sense! How is it possible! Why hasn't he been eliminated yet?

The list of the final eight in the Great Imperial Examination was sent outside the Academy, written outside the light mirror of Zhaowen Palace, and also spread to the crowd outside the Palace.

It was already getting dark at this time, and the warm light of the setting sun shone on those stone pillars, as well as on the Kyoto people watching the excitement and the tourists coming from other places.

At this time, there were at least thousands of people surrounding the palace, and the voices were very noisy. The voices of the vendors had already become very hoarse. However, at this time, people were all talking about the same thing and expressing the same emotions. The first thing happened was that Chen Changsheng had won four games in a row. His emotions were shock, confusion and anger.

People in Kyoto don't like Chen Changsheng, but compared to those candidates from the south, they don't hate Chen Changsheng more. The reason why they are so shocked and angry about Chen Changsheng's four consecutive wins is purely because Chen Changsheng's performance makes him so angry. They lost a lot of money, and some even lost their eyes.

Yes, in addition to the first place, there are many ways to bet on the Great Imperial Examination. Candidates participating in the Great Imperial Examination will have winners and losers in every round. Similarly, after each round, many people will change. Become a winner or a loser. Because of Chen Changsheng, the vast majority of people are losers this year.

In each round of the Great Examination, the odds offered by the outside world are different to facilitate people's temporary betting. In each round, Chen Changsheng's odds are extremely high. Up to now, his odds are still the highest - he let Some people were ecstatic, causing more people to lose money, but no one believed that he could continue to win.

Tianhai Shengxue was in a teahouse south of the Li Palace, quietly watching the crowds of people in front of the Li Palace, and suddenly said: If Si Da Fang is still willing to take over, I will pledge five thousand gold to Chen Changsheng to win in the end.

The old steward standing next to him was stunned and said with some hesitation: Master, it's impossible for him to win, right?

Tianhai Shengxue said: In the first round, everyone thought he couldn't win, but he won. In the second round, no one thought he could win, and then he still won. The same happened in the third round, and in the fourth round Similarly, before the imperial examination, who would have thought that he could enter the top eight? If so, why can't I keep him?

The old steward even claimed so.

Tianhai Shengxue suddenly remembered something and said: If he really wins the first place in the end, use the money he won to repair the door of the National Education Academy.

The old steward thought to himself, wasn't it Young Master who broke down the gate of the Chinese Academy of Education? Moreover, there has never been a seminary gate in the National Education College. Everyone in Kyoto knows what this means. If you build a seminary gate for the National Education College, isn’t it equivalent to admitting defeat? He was very surprised, but thought that the young master's actions must have deep meaning, so he did not dare to say more, but he was a little confused about the details.

If...I mean if Chen Changsheng really wins, it will be a lot of money. Even if he repairs the sect of the National Education Academy, he won't spend so much money.

Tianhai Shengxue looked at the palace in the dusk and said calmly: If he can really win, why not give him a white jade courtyard gate?

The old steward became more and more puzzled, thinking that even if Chen Changsheng won the first place, that boy was the symbol of the National Education Academy and a symbol used by the old faction of the National Education to challenge the empress. No matter what, the Tianhai family would not be able to accept him. When you come to the door, what are you doing by doing this?

Tianhai Shengxue didn't explain. He took a sip from the tea cup and suddenly felt a little tasteless.

Qiu Shanjun did not come, but Mo Yu was still in front. The imperial examination did not mean much to him, but if he gave up on it, his mood would inevitably be a little complicated.

…

…

In the quiet flower hall of the Dongyu Divine General's Mansion, Mrs. Xu looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her, frowned slightly and asked, Grandma Hua, did you hear that right? Is he really in the top eight?

Granny Hua said in a low voice: It shouldn't be wrong. Sidafang has already posted the odds for the next round, and the name of the young master of the Chen family is indeed on it.

Mrs. Xu was shocked and speechless. She felt like she had a headache. What should she do if that boy really won the first place in the imperial examination?

She looked at the chairs and empty coffee table in the flower hall, and recalled the first time she saw Chen Changsheng in the early spring of last year.

The young Taoist priest was a little reserved and very clean.

He didn't take a sip of tea.

Mrs. Xu's heart suddenly moved slightly, and she thought of some possibility.

In the east wing room, Shuang'er, who had just received the news, was also extremely surprised.

She recalled the scene when she first met Chen Changsheng in the backyard.

She couldn't imagine that that uptight young Taoist priest from the countryside, that loser who couldn't practice, actually entered the top eight of the Great Imperial Examination. According to the rumored performance at the Ivy Banquet, his literary examination results must have been excellent. Yes, doesn’t this mean that he is now only one step away from entering the top list of the imperial examination?

Yes, as long as Chen Changsheng can win another round of competition and enter the top four, plus his literary test results, he will most likely enter the top list.

The question is, can he move on? Or is this the end of it?

…

…

There is a small side hall deep in the palace. It is very deserted, like a cold palace.

The black sheep stared at the green fruits on the tree beside the stone steps. He hesitated for a long time whether to eat them. He remembered clearly that the fruit the boy fed him in the Herb Garden last time tasted good, but he couldn't eat it now. Confirm whether it is the taste of the fruit itself or because of the taste on the peel.

Grandma Ning walked quietly past it and whispered: Master Shengxue has abstained.

The Holy Queen is holding a piece of fragrant wood, the edge of the fragrant wood is burning, and a pill is hanging on top of the wisps of incense.

Her fingers slowly moved the incense wood, and the smoke from the burning incense wood swirled slightly, urging the elixir to rotate slowly.

Upon hearing these words, her fingers paused slightly, and the pill also hovered in the air.

She looked slightly strange, but after a moment she understood, and said with emotion: The children of the Tianhai family can still be promising after all.

This is a good thing and a bad thing.

The more promising the children of the Tianhai family are, the less she will be able to let them go completely, and then the Zhou Dynasty will not be able to get rid of that big problem.

But she was still a little relieved after all.

Granny Ning hesitated for a moment and then continued: Chen Changsheng from the National Education College entered the top eight.

The Holy Queen's eyebrows slowly raised.

Granny Ning was a little nervous. She liked Chen Changsheng's child very much and was worried that the empress would be unhappy.

The Holy Queen didn't say anything.

The next moment, she appeared in the dark underground.

She gently flicked her sleeves, and thousands of luminous pearls on the dome lit up.

The cold white light fell on the frost-covered ground, illuminating the entire scene.

A little girl in black clothes and a snowy face lay weakly on her stomach.

The Holy Queen flicked her fingers, and the elixir fell in front of the little girl.

Chen Changsheng has not been eliminated yet, your blood is still of some use.

The little girl in black raised her head with difficulty and stared at the Holy Queen without any fear, only boredom, and said, What kind of ghost medicine is this?

The Holy Queen said calmly: Motherwort ointment.

The little girl in black knew that a terrifying human being like the Holy Queen had countless ways to cure herself, so she would never tamper with a pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

Chen Changsheng... can he... take the first place on the list? She looked at the Holy Queen and asked curiously.

Let's stop here. The Holy Queen said calmly.

The next moment, she came to the abandoned well in Beixinqiao. She put her hands behind her back and looked at the stars in the night sky. She was silent for a long time, not knowing what she was thinking.

…

…

(That’s it for today. I thought about it for a while, but then I thought about it again... See you all tomorrow.)
