After my mind was read, I became the emperor's favorite

Pei Xiangzhi felt that everything today was very strange. Not only today, but this scientific examination also had many strange things happening.

The candidates who were strongly supported by several major families basically returned empty-handed.

Instead, these few unknown people became the biggest winners of this scientific expedition.

Except for the third place winner who was the young master of the Wuwei Marquis family, the rest of the top five were almost all from humble backgrounds.

The top three in previous years were conventionally assigned to the Hanlin Academy, but the three of them still had no specific assignment.

I was notified yesterday to attend today's court meeting, and my name was suddenly called during the meeting.

Now that he was left alone by Eunuch Chu, Pei Xiangzhi's heart was in turmoil and he couldn't make up his mind.

He felt that the other two were probably as frightened as he was.

Looking to the left, I saw Feng Heng wiping the cold sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

In comparison, he is still very calm and decent.

However, when he saw the right side, Pei Xiangzhi was shocked.

What is this young master of the Wuwei Marquis family doing? He seems to be daydreaming!

Qi Mingze was certainly not in a daze, but was sorting out the original owner's memories.

[Host, why did Jun Linyuan keep you here? Was he dissatisfied with your response at the court meeting?]

The system was a little nervous and immediately synchronized the thoughts of Pei Xiangzhi and Feng Heng.

Outside the hall, Jun Linyuan, who had changed into casual clothes, was about to go in, but suddenly stopped when he heard this.

He stopped the eunuch who was about to kowtow, waved away the others, and walked alone to the ginkgo tree in front of the hall.

Thirty feet, this is the maximum distance he can hear Qi Mingze's thoughts.

[No, if you're really dissatisfied, you can just reprimand me in the main hall. There's no need to keep me here.]

Seeing the confused system, Qi Mingze's desire to be a teacher began to surge again.

This little fool, I should teach him a lesson while I am still with him.

Otherwise you might meet someone with a bad temper and be eaten up without leaving anything behind.

It should be time to assign positions.

Also, don't call the emperor by his name in the future. It's okay if you get used to it.

But your host might slip up and blurt out something, and then the joke becomes even bigger.]

[Okay, I get it. I'll correct it right now.] Seeing Qi Mingze soften his stance towards it, the system instantly regained its composure and stood firm.

The system thinks it's okay again. Rome was not built in a day, and Liu Bei had to visit Zhuge Liang three times to invite him to his cottage.

Z9587 believes that with its persistent efforts, the host will be moved by it one day.

[Then the host will definitely be assigned a good place. His Majesty has praised Qi Mingze's appearance.

Moreover, this was the first imperial examination after the emperor came to power, which was of great significance. Most of the successful candidates in this examination would become the backbone of the court.

I carefully observed for a long time before choosing this identity, especially...]

The system was complacent. He had conducted a thorough investigation and confirmed the identity after comparing many options.

In fact, Qi Mingze has a hidden setting, which does not need to be emphasized in front of the host. The host can experience it himself.

[At that time, all the ministers thought that Qi Mingze's policy proposal was better, but His Majesty felt that the other two were plain-looking and not worthy of being the third place.

How much benefit can the host gain by suppressing the beauty-loving ministers with one move?

It's a pity that we missed the chance to win six prizes in a row just at the last moment.

But compared to Jian's place in the Emperor's heart, this little reputation is nothing! 】

Its host is also a pragmatist and doesn't care about reputation.

Otherwise, so many important research results would not have been hidden in this world.

[Give me the answer sheets of the top three palace examinations, as well as the final list of results.] Qi Mingze felt a bit of a headache.

During the palace examination, the original owner was so overwhelmed by his scumbag father that he neglected everything else.

So he did not get this information from his memory. If it was really as he thought, then his identity would be even more embarrassing.

[Okay, host.] Although the system was confused, it still retrieved the files from that time.

Qi Mingze can read ten lines at a glance, although in modern times he is a typical science student and is not very familiar with classical Chinese.

However, relying on the original owner's memory and his own ability to understand, it is more than enough to distinguish between good and bad.

As expected, Qi Mingze's victory was not just one step ahead, he was already far ahead.

There are very few children from top aristocratic families in the top 100, and those who are among them are from poorer families, and their rankings are even lower.

Combined with the previous incidents and the selection of the examiner this time.

It seems that Qi Mingze would be exhausted and troubled by his scumbag father.

I stayed in Wan'an Temple for a while, and I was afraid that something unexpected might happen this time.

[Your Majesty has really played a big game.] Qi Mingze smiled, thinking of the scene he had accidentally seen at the court meeting.

[I just don’t know if the result will really be what he wants.]

System, you guessed correctly, this year's candidates will indeed be given important positions.]

[That's right.] Before the system could claim credit again, Qi Mingze's next sentence sent the system plummeting from heaven to hell.

[But this does not include Qi Mingze.] Qi Mingze said firmly.

【How come, but why? 】

[Back then, I even spent points to ask the main brain for advice.

This prediction system is just like what our predecessors said, it has bugs every now and then.

If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have wasted these points. I had saved them for a long time.

Seeing that the system did not question him, but instead suspected the main brain, this was also the reason why Qi Mingze was willing to teach it.

It is not scary to be a poor student or have a low IQ. What is scary are those naughty children and parents who try to pass the blame on their children when they don’t study well.

People like this can go wherever they want, he will just make them get lost.

[The emperor is ready to extend his butcher knife to the aristocratic families, and there will definitely be a major reshuffle in the court in the next few years.

Therefore, the emperor will definitely not allow aristocratic families to get involved in the selection of candidates for these two sessions.

[Isn't it said that aristocratic families are permanent, but emperors are transient? Isn't this emperor so fierce? ]

The system was horrified, feeling that as a ruler, it still could not understand the complexity of human nature.

[How can I allow others to snore beside my bed?]

His Majesty has been keeping a low profile for seven years, and then eliminated the two factions of relatives by marriage and kings of different surnames with lightning speed. How could he be someone who is willing to be constrained by others?

What's more, the death of the late emperor is so confusing. As the late emperor's younger brother who had a deep brotherly relationship with him, I am afraid that none of those who hid behind the scenes can escape the emperor's purge.

The emperor's reckless behavior was not only intended to paralyze the aristocratic families, but also to prevent Qi Mingze from achieving the sixth highest position in the imperial examination.

This is Qi Mingze's temporary psychological profile of Jun Linyuan based on the original owner's memory.

It may not be comprehensive, but the accuracy should not be too low.

As for the future situation, he will observe it himself and then analyze it.

However, the situation of this body is indeed not good.

[Tsk, what's this about Qi Mingze? He was just a half-grown child seven years ago.]

[Who told Marquis Wuwei to join the Wu family?]

[What, what! Host, how did you know?] The system was speechless.

The main brain's memory might have run out, otherwise why wouldn't there be even this in the background file? The division of power didn't assign Marquis Wuwei to the Wu family either.

This time's mastermind is no good. From background checks to time travel, there are problems at every stage. None of them are reliable.

[My mother's dowry headgear appeared on the body of the Wu family's legitimate daughter. This is the relationship between Qi Mingrong and Wu Xirui.

The painting of mountains and rivers by the painter is probably in the Wu family's study, including Qi Yuhua's marriage.] There are many other details, too numerous to mention.

Qi Mingze felt that what these two families did was not very smart.

If he could see the problem, how could His Majesty be deceived?

[Qi Mingze, the legitimate son, is not favored at all and does not get any benefits at all.

They targeted the Marquis of Wuwei, but used him as a scapegoat. What was going on?]

The system also knew that its rebuttal was useless, but it just felt indignant.

According to ancient thought, there are no unfaithful parents in the world. Qi Mingze and Wuwei Hou should be one and the same, and their success will be shared by all.

[This scumbag dad is totally incompetent!] The things he did to Qi Mingze in the past were enough to make it angry.

Now even it and the host have been tricked, I really want to beat him to death!

[Host, what should we do then?] The system was in a panic.

Taking the responsibility of choosing the wrong person on itself, it felt like it was suffocating.

[It's just a cold dish. If the enemy comes, we'll just fight him. If the water comes, we'll just cover it with earth. It really makes me unhappy, but I don't mind killing my relatives for the sake of justice.]

Qi Mingze doesn't care. According to the standards of his previous life, as long as I have no morals, morality cannot hold me hostage!

This isn't the first time my dad has encountered this. The last one was the same, so this one can be handled in the same way.

Outside the palace, Jun Linyuan chuckled softly. He never expected that the person who knew him best was someone from another world whom he had only met once.

"Interesting, really interesting, how many more surprises will you bring me!"
