The few people bowed and walked forward to look through it. They looked at it for half an hour and finally said, "It's very fair. The top thirty people are worthy of their names."

The candidates present at this moment were still wondering why so many candidates could beat the candidates from the north in miscellaneous studies, and those with slow brains had not figured out the reason at all.

At this time, Zhang Shanhai arrived with the imperial edict. The emperor clearly stated the official positions of these thirty people and even wrote down how their salaries came from.

What this means is that they are adding additional official positions, even the lowest-ranking ones, and their salaries are indirectly supplied by the Northern State. You should stay out of their business. This is not a bad thing, but a good thing.

Because in the next term, you may also become official officials through this opportunity.

A storm just disappeared inexplicably.

Duke Li and Zhao Zhong also reacted by now and went into the palace to report.

"These... thirty people are all students from the Beizhou Main College, right?" Li Guogong said.

Xiao Zhixing nodded, that must be it.

Zhao Kun couldn't help but wonder, "Didn't the prince ask them to change their place of origin?"

In order to increase the success rate of the academy, most academies would ask new students or transfer students to change their place of origin to the academy.

I didn't expect Xiao Zhixing to be so generous that the students he spent money and resources to train are actually from other academies.

【Green barrage: I don’t understand. 】

[Yellow barrage: Just like the students who are affiliated with us, they study in school A, but their student status is still in the original school B. Even the number of successful candidates is given to the original school B, and it is not counted as the number of successful candidates in school A. ]

[Red Barrage: No wonder everyone is so dumbfounded. This is simply spending one's own money to improve the reputation of another school. Who could have thought of such a stupid thing? ]

[Yellow barrage: The prince is not stupid, she only wants to train more talents and does not care about the reputation of the headquarters. Although these students have not come here for enrollment, do they dare to disrespect the Beizhou headquarters that trained them? ]

Xiao Zhixing smiled. Of course he wouldn't and didn't dare to.

Heaven, Earth, the Emperor, Parents and Teachers, the Beizhou Headquarters has trained them, and they will always be members of the Headquarters.

The reason why their place of origin was not changed was to appease the anger of their original academy. If you take people away and do not change their affiliation, they will not be angry and protest.

Secondly, of course, we use our place of origin as a cover. Look, didn’t we successfully cover it up this time?

If all the thirty people on the Hundred Craftsmen List were named "Beizhou So-and-so", it would be too eye-catching and she would even frown when she saw it.

She also noticed that many students on the Jinshi list also came from the Beizhou Main College. She often paid attention to these outstanding students, so she was familiar with their names.

Precisely because the academy’s place of origin was not changed, it could not be seen as the Northern State Headquarters, and they were successfully and low-key allowed to enter the officialdom with their original place of origin.

When Xiao Zhixing and the other two arrived at the palace, the news had already spread, and those who were quick to react immediately understood the mystery.

"Prince Yuan Sheng is extremely intelligent and has made every possible effort."

Could it be that she had anticipated this situation three years ago?

The Emperor System muttered, "She must have hundreds of tricks in her mind. Isn't that tiring?"

Zhao Yunqi smiled and said, "You will definitely feel comfortable partnering with her in the future."

The Emperor System snorted coldly and closed the connection.

Of course, those who were unwilling to accept this still wanted to cause trouble and spread her plan to conceal the truth.

Unfortunately, the momentum has declined and it cannot become a big deal.

In the end, those who were touched by the Ghost Guard were dealt with directly.

Except for those who cannot be dealt with, such as Nian Guyong and those imperial censors.

Nian Mansion.

After waking up, Nian Changling called a few clan elders and adult grandchildren, and took Nian Guyong to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Nian Gu was angry and ashamed, "It is normal for me to report her as a court official. As the Imperial Censor, my father is so afraid of the powerful? It is a disgrace to the name of the Imperial Censor!"

Nian Changling held up his still heavy head, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Fool, don't you understand why your father is angry?"

Nian Guyong felt that he was in the right. He had been kneeling in front for a long time. His anger was rising and he said something without thinking, "Father is partial. He thinks that everything his son does is wrong. I will never be as good as my eldest brother!"

Nian Changling held his chest with a grim expression, "Is this what you really think? You actually thought like this for so many years?"

"Isn't it? My eldest brother is dead, but you still value his son with a crippled leg. You turn a blind eye to my efforts and look down on my son."

Nian Changling stared at him blankly with red eyes, as if he didn't understand where such resentment came from.

Nian Gu sneered, "Why? Did I get it right? Father is partial. Everything in the mansion belongs to the eldest son. His son is not convinced. I am also the legitimate son. I am no worse than anyone else. How can a loser like Nian Chenghan take over the power of the Nian Mansion over my uncle?"

“Asshole!” Nian Changling came back to his senses, shaking with anger, “Father is indeed partial, but the one partial to you is your heart!”

"Nonsense!" Nian Guyong stood up and roared, "How have you ever been partial to me? My elder brother is better than me in every way, why should I be inferior to him?"

He waved his arms like a madman and listed all the injustices he felt. The only sound in the entire ancestral hall was his roar.

Nian Changling looked at his son who had become a stranger with disappointment, and suddenly he felt exhausted.

An elder of the clan sighed, "Let's split up the family. If this continues, his resentment will only deepen."

There is no way to save this person's character. We can only choose to separate him from others and pretend that he is out of sight.

The elder closed his eyes and sighed.

Nian Guyong stopped talking, rolled his eyes, and began to calculate again. He was also the legitimate son, so he should be able to get a lot -

At this time, the housekeeper of the Nian Mansion walked in quickly, approached Nian Changling and whispered, "Master, a letter has been sent from the Zhenguo Palace."

Nian Changling was shocked and snatched the letter from his hand. In it, there were a few words and some...

Then, without waiting for everyone to react, he spat out blood and slid off the chair.

"Grandfather!!"

This year's spring examination went by uneventfully, with the candidates waiting for the palace examination.

However, on the third day after the results were announced, the Nian family suddenly announced that Nian Guyong would be expelled from the clan and was no longer a descendant of the Nian family.

They actually kicked him out without even giving him the money for the property.

Suddenly, all kinds of speculations emerged in Shengjing City.

"I heard that he was involved in the death of Mr. Nian, and the evidence was found. Mr. Nian was so angry that he almost died, so several elders decided to expel him from the tribe."

"Not only that, someone here has heard that he was the one who broke Young Master Nian Chenghan's leg, and the first wife of the Nian family once gave birth to a little boy, who was also killed by him."

"Hiss, really?"

"It's almost certain, otherwise the Nian clan wouldn't have expelled him from the clan. Not sending him to see the officials was already a mercy."

"Oh, Master Chenghan was so pitiful back then. He was the top master back then, but now he has become disabled."

At this time, Nian Chenghan was also kneeling in the ancestral hall, but it wasn't really kneeling, he was just sitting on the ground.

His attendant muttered beside him, "Sir, since you handed the evidence to Prince Yuan Sheng and used her to avenge the past, why do you still want to confess to the master?"
