Thinking of this, Emperor Yan felt a little more at ease.

Actually, this was also good. Otherwise, if the champion of the previous round was eliminated so easily, it would easily attract everyone’s suspicion.

The guards quickly left with the eliminated people.

Then, the second round of a.s.sessment continued.

Lin Xiaoyue’s reading speed was still very slow. She was the last one to finish reading the questions before lowering her head to start calculating.

However, just like the previous round, she was the first to write the answer.

Seeing this, Emperor Yan could not help but frown.

Liu Wuji stroked his beard in satisfaction, a smug look on his face.

Then, the second round ended.

This time, another six people were eliminated. There were only nine people left on the stage.

To Emperor Yan’s surprise, Lin Xiaoyue had not been eliminated.

At this moment, Emperor Yan finally felt that something was wrong.

He had already changed the questions, so how could she still answer them correctly? Moreover, she answered the questions so quickly.

He could not help but look at the Imperial Advisor. Emperor Yan’s suspicion was quickly dispelled.

Impossible, the questions he changed were not set by the Imperial Advisor.

Moreover, when he received these questions, the Imperial Advisor was no longer in the royal study. He had not even looked through the questions.

In this way, it was impossible for the Imperial Advisor to know about the existence of those questions.

Then how could he tell this woman?

Was this girl really talented?

Looking at Lin Xiaoyue playing with the brush in boredom again, Emperor Yan frowned.

Or was there a problem with the examiner…

Thinking of this, Emperor Yan looked at the examiner sitting not far away.

The examiner immediately felt a gaze.

Following his gaze, he saw that Emperor Yan was looking at him. He quickly retracted his gaze and bowed.

At the same time, he felt uneasy. He quickly recalled if he had made any mistakes in his work that had actually caused the emperor to be dissatisfied.

Seeing the examiner’s reaction, Emperor Yan retracted his gaze.

Right under his nose, there should be no one who would dare to do such a thing and fool him…

However…

Emperor Yan thought about it.

After a while, the gong sounded again.

The guards went forward to collect the scrolls.

Eunuch Da Hu received the test papers and prepared to send them to the examiner.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Yan suddenly spoke.

“Bring them to me. I will personally mark the next papers.”

Everyone was shocked.

Liu Wuji also turned his head to look at Emperor Yan.

He had long noticed that the Emperor was a little abnormal today. It was as if he was thinking about something.

Now, hearing the Emperor’s words, he suddenly understood something.

Frowning, Liu Wuji looked at his granddaughter again, and anger rose in his heart.

So, it was really targeted at his granddaughter?

Noticing Liu Wuji’s expression, Emperor Yan felt a little guilty.

After that, he simply stopped looking at Liu Wuji.

After the test papers were sent over, he started marking them.

Whether it was true ability or fraud, he would know immediately.

If he were to resort to fraud and the Imperial Advisor bribed the examiner for a woman, then Liu Wuji did not have the right to be angry.

If that woman really had real talent…

Then, he would not target her anymore.

At the very least, he would not target her before the compet.i.tion with Chu Jin’s envoy.

Thinking of this, Emperor Yan opened the first paper.

It was Lin Xiaoyue’s.

When he saw the answer, Emperor Yan was shocked.

Although the words were a little ugly, the answer was correct.

He could not help but glance at Lin Xiaoyue. Emperor Yan looked a little unhappy, but he let her pa.s.s.

He had underestimated her. He didn’t expect her to be proficient in arithmetic.

After confirming that Lin Xiaoyue was really capable, Emperor Yan did not delay any longer and quickly finished marking the rest of the papers.

After that, he let Eunuch Dahu announce the results.

Another four people were eliminated in this round of a.s.sessment.

Now, there were only five people left.

Soon, another round of a.s.sessment began.

This time, the difficulty of the questions had risen to another level.

Everyone frowned when they saw the question.

Only Lin Xiaoyue was the last to finish reading the questions. After she finished reading, her expression was as usual as she began to write on the draft paper.

After a while, she wrote the answer.

Emperor Yan paid attention to Lin Xiaoyue this time. Seeing that she was doing the questions easily, he finally didn’t have the disdain he had for her before. On the contrary, he admired her even more.

This woman was probably the strongest among the people present.

Soon, 15 minutes pa.s.sed.

The guard collected the papers and quickly gave them to Emperor Yan.

The first paper Emperor Yan saw was Lin Xiaoyue’s.

Although the handwriting was as ugly as ever, as expected, the answer was correct.

Emperor Yan could not help but look at Lin Xiaoyue again.

Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue had quickly avoided him, he was no longer so angry.

Instead, he felt a little more interested..
