After breaking off relations, the prince's family regretted it for the rest of their lives.

Chen Changan was not surprised by the emperor's choice.

After all, he stepped on the golden stamen flower, which represented the emperor's face. It would be strange if the emperor was not angry.

But it doesn’t matter. Chen Changan is ready to be a pariah again.

The emperor ordered a banquet to be served, with all kinds of delicacies from land and sea being served.

Although Chen Changan hadn't eaten all day, there was no change on his face.

I don’t want to be the top scholar anymore. How can I escape from the State of Chu?

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly I heard the King of Huainan raise his voice a little: "Fool? Foolish!"

Chen Changan immediately came to his senses: "The guilty minister is here!"

"I know that I have committed a grave sin. I beg Your Majesty to remove me from the title of No. 1 Scholar. I am willing to be a pariah for eternity!"

Chen Changan kowtowed and said humbly.

The civil officials all sneered, while the military officers shook their heads and let out a sigh.

The emperor ignored Chen Changan and spoke calmly.

"According to the annual management, new graduates need to study in the Imperial College and be sent down to practice for three years."

"Lü Qing has returned. He has been appointed as Baidi School Officer. He will follow Cheng Qinghe to learn daily work and will take up the post in half a year."

"Chen Fusheng, Luo Qianfan, study mountain and river water conservancy. After graduating from the Imperial College, go to Yuyang to ensure the peace of Jiangdu."

The three of them were ecstatic and knelt down to express their gratitude.

"Long live, long live, long live my emperor!"

For a time, the scenery was glorious.

The emperor stood up and looked at Chen Changan coldly: "Chen Changan, I value your talent and will give you another chance."

"Tell me, who is the best among flowers?"

All the ministers were very nervous!

The generals kept signaling, Chen Changan, don't disobey the emperor!

This will ruin your future!

Chen Changan said without any reluctance: "I know the answer the emperor wants, but I still insist on making the choice."

"The best of all flowers is the dandelion!"

The civil officials were happy, but the military generals were stunned!

Number one scholar, you are a fucking idiot, a big idiot!

The emperor suddenly laughed!

To others, the smile sounded like it contained endless murderous intent!

Chen Zhan was about to speak again when he heard the emperor say, "Good, very good. You have not changed your original intention in the face of my pressure. Good!"

The officials all looked horrified.

What's going on?

"Chen Changan, do you know why I want you to kneel down in public?"

The emperor put away his smile and asked seriously.

Chen Changan shook his head: "I don't know."

"When the late emperor was in power, I expressed different opinions, which angered the late emperor."

"In order to punish me, the late emperor made me kneel before the officials and watch them drink and have fun."

"…That's where you kneel!"

All the officials gasped immediately!

The King of Huainan was also stunned!

Even Zhao Qingcheng looked at Chen Changan in fear, her eyes filled with confusion.

It’s not that the Emperor doesn’t like Chen Chang’an, it’s just that…

Test him!

Even, he was elevated to the same level as himself!

What's happening here?

The emperor ignored the astonishment of his ministers and said through gritted teeth: "But, what I did back then may not be better than you!"

"When the late emperor asked me, I couldn't stand the mocking looks from the ministers, so I changed my tone."

"The late emperor was greatly disappointed. If it weren't for the fact that the late queen had no one to succeed her, the throne would not belong to me today!"

"You made up for my regret!"

As the emperor spoke, the huge rock blocking Chen Changan’s chest instantly disappeared.

The emperor didn't really want to punish him, but to test him!

The memories of his previous life told Chen Changan that the emperor was not incompetent!

"Top Scholar Chen Changan, I have a question for you!"

Xiang Jian suddenly raised his voice a bit, indicating that what he was going to say next was very important.

All the officials pricked up their ears.

"I heard that you and the King of Huainan were not on good terms, and I have sentenced you to expulsion from the King's Palace."

"You will take my surname Xiang and become my twenty-first prince!"

"How do you feel?"
