Chapter 315: Chatting
At noon, we were still in Zhegui Tower.

Princess Jiale hosted everyone for dinner and drinks to congratulate them on their successful passing of the imperial examination, and also to especially congratulate Liu Sheng on winning the first place.

Of course, this was a dinner party for close friends, so Xu Dajuan, who had been pestering Liu Sheng to talk and even took out some calculation paper, naturally couldn't come.

Although he wanted to, because he still had many questions to ask, but when Princess Jiale glared at him, he could only say goodbye with tears in his eyes.

Anyway, I have exchanged spiritual messages with Liu Sheng, and there are still many days to come!
At the dinner table, Wang Dongdong also recounted the bet he had made that morning.

Finally, Wang Dongdong looked at Liu Sheng and said apologetically: "Sorry, I bet on you."

Liu Sheng snorted softly, but he was secretly happy in his heart.

【This kind of story is necessary! 】

[It feels good to get slapped in the face. 】

[It sounds like Wen Xuanning is hostile to us...]

[How can there be no hostility? Have you forgotten that we killed him with our last strike and also stole his faith points.]

[It seems to be the case...]

"So, in order to compensate you, we have agreed that you can pick one of the five spiritual weapons first, and we will pick the rest." Wang Dongdong said with a smile while hugging Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng raised his eyebrows: "But...how do you divide it among the five of you?"

"I don't want it." Princess Jiale's voice sounded proudly.

Everyone looked at Princess Jiale.

Liu Sheng even stared at Princess Jiale's eyes, and the confusion in his eyes seemed to be wondering why he was so nice to her.

From the beginning when they met, Princess Jiale had always been showing her kindness.

Princess Jiale said, "Didn't I tell you? I'm optimistic about you."

“I’m just placing a bet.”

Seeing Liu Sheng's eyes widen immediately, Princess Jiale chuckled and explained: "You can choose to agree or not. I won't force you to do anything, don't worry."

Liu Sheng nodded and chose a magic sword with peace of mind.

She had always used extremely ordinary weapons, but because she had small tentacles in her hands and the lightning whip she had practiced hard, she often didn't need weapons to fight.

But sometimes I think it’s better to have a sharp weapon, so that when I don’t have spiritual energy or the small tentacles are inconvenient, I have a means of self-defense.

"Miss Liu has good taste. This magic sword was made by Minister Ling himself for his daughter, and it has many carefully designed magics." Princess Jiale laughed and explained, "It can launch flying blades, fireballs, and ice arrows. It can be used to roast food outside. It can even be used as a flying tool. Its flying speed is no less than that of a cloud sedan. It is very practical."

[It is really a must-have for home and travel.] Liu Sheng added silently.

Liu Sheng didn't expect that he would get his cheap uncle's masterpiece as soon as he got it. He didn't know whether to say it was fate or bad luck.

But from what she heard, the magic sword is really powerful, it's really a bargain for her.

"With this magic sword, Miss Liu will surely win the palace examination in ten days." Princess Jiale smiled mysteriously and raised her glass to toast.

"Thank you." Liu Sheng accepted the blessing calmly.

"It's a pity that we only bet on one thing this time, and we only won five spiritual weapons." Wang Dongdong was still annoyed and sighed.

"If I had known earlier, I would have bet on one more thing and Sister Liu Sheng would win first place." Jiang Caibin said with regret.

Jing Hao and Lu Shen, who were silent nearby, nodded in agreement.

Liu Sheng laughed and said, "Be careful not to be greedy and you will suffer the consequences."

"Anyway, I feel relieved if I bet on Sister Liu Sheng to win. I'll go see if there is any gambling during the palace examination." Jiang Caibin rubbed his hands and said excitedly.

The others nodded and said, "Let's go together."

In this regard, Liu Sheng can only say...

Count me in!
Wang Dongdong even begged Wen Xuanning and the others to make another bet, saying that he was really happy to see their faces change drastically just now.

"Shengsheng, you have no idea how awful their faces were when they found out you were at the top of the list." Wang Dongdong said, laughing wildly without any image at all.

"That's right, it's wonderful!"

Jiang Caibin also followed suit with a smug smile on his face, and even added fuel to the fire.

"I won't talk about the poor weaklings and Brother Zhang who just followed the trend. After Yu Ke knew Sheng Sheng's results, she was so angry that she couldn't even eat. She even stupidly asked Wen Xuan Ning why you weren't at the top of the list?"

"You're just bringing up something that's not relevant! How would Wen Xuanning know why it wasn't him? When he heard that Sister Liu Sheng was at the top of the list, his face turned green. I've never seen a face that green before, like a vegetable leaf, a bit like those people with the plague we've seen before..."

Liu Sheng coughed lightly, and Jiang Caibin quickly covered his mouth, looking at Liu Sheng with frightened eyes. Fortunately, everyone else was talking about their own things, and the only ones who could hear it were Wang Dongdong and Princess Jiale.

"When did you watch the plague together?"

Wang Dongdong looked back and forth between the two of them with a hint of suspicion.

When did the two of them become so close?

Especially Jiang Caibin, who now calls everyone "Sister Liu Sheng" and after parting with those friends in the morning, he gradually let himself go, and his speech and behavior became more and more charming.

"Jiang Caibin and I both love to watch "Legend of the Sword Immortal", especially Xiao Hanzi's painting of 'Taibai Sword Immortal slaughtering the plague village with tears', which is quite scary."

Liu Sheng quietly rolled her eyes at Jiang Caibin, luckily she thought quickly.

Jiang Caibin nodded quickly, patted his thin, flat chest and said in a tender voice: "Really, it's too scary. I can't sleep after watching it."

"Oh……"

Wang Dongdong was fooled at once. Thinking of the story, he couldn't help but shudder. He didn't know how Xiao Hanzi could have such a good imagination. He could draw those people who had contracted the plague and became very strange so vividly.

It is indeed a childhood shadow.

Princess Jiale's eyes twinkled, and she nodded and said, "Now that you mention it, Wen Xuanning's expression is indeed quite similar to that of the weirdo in the painting, so distorted and ugly. He always thought that the first place must belong to him."

"Are you so confident?" Liu Sheng asked curiously. She felt that what Princess Jiale said was true.

Princess Jiale smiled slightly and winked at Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng understood.

For some people, you don't need to wait for the results to be announced.

Yes, when she first looked at the list, Wen Xuanning was indeed at the top.

No one knew what happened in this short night, but Wen Xuanning's top spot fell on her head.

[This makes me even more hated.]

[Since I already hate him, I am not afraid of hating him more. 】

"He is so uncultured that he slammed the door and left." Wang Dongdong curled his lips, "Poor Ling Yuke and that Miss Lu chased after him..."

Wang Dongdong was halfway through his words when he felt a pang in his heart. Aren't Wen Xuanning and Lu Da Princess Jiale's friends? Isn't this just speaking ill of someone else's friend in front of her?
Suddenly, Wang Dongdong's face looked a little embarrassed.

"I didn't mean to say your friend..."

"It doesn't matter. You're telling the truth." Princess Jiale said nonchalantly, "Besides, wasn't I talking about him too?"

Seeing Liu Sheng looking at her with a playful expression, Princess Jiale explained with a chuckle.

"I just got close to Lu Da, and Lu Da liked to play with him recently, and I also thought he was interesting, so I got closer to him."

“But now, I’ve found something more interesting.”

She looked at Liu Sheng with a puzzled look in her eyes.

Liu Sheng didn't expect Princess Jiale to explain so much to her and was stunned.

He looked away and coughed lightly.

However, she noticed a detail from Princess Jiale's words.

"Mr. Lu?" Liu Sheng asked.

"The eldest daughter of the Lu family, Lu Xiaonan." Princess Jiale said.

"Did she have a younger sister who died in Qinghe not long ago?" Liu Sheng remembered something and asked hurriedly.

Wang Dongdong listened to what Liu Sheng said, came over and asked, "How do you know? Oh, you were in Qinghe before!"

Upon hearing this, Princess Jiale's eyes darkened and she stared at Liu Sheng closely.

Liu Sheng nodded and said, "I know, because Miss Lu died in front of me..."

She briefly described the situation at that time.

"Hiss, what a coincidence." Wang Dongdong exclaimed.

Jiang Caibin was also surprised and felt a little sorry for Sister Liu Sheng. She was not full and was frightened at the time. She was really pitiful.

Princess Jiale didn't say anything, but the shadow on her face became heavier.
