Chapter 374 A Random Divination

"Look, Master Wen is on stage!"

Immediately, all eyes turned to Wen Xuanning on stage number three.

"Minister Wen, your son is truly dignified and has an extraordinary bearing!" An acquaintance joked to Minister Wen.

"At this level, one should be exempt from the test. Wouldn't it be humiliating other candidates to be here?"

"That's right."

After hearing the compliments from the ministers, Prime Minister Wen did not seem happy and just nodded slightly.

Looking in the direction of Wen Xuanning, his eyes were heavy and no one knew what was in them.

He also didn't notice that the eldest princess's gaze fell imperceptibly behind him, then quickly moved away, staring at the young man on the field, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Princess Jiale glanced at Wen Xuanning indifferently, and her gaze returned to Liu Sheng in the waiting area in the distance.

……

Waiting area.

"Wen Xuanning is going to play!" Qu Chunyan said excitedly.

Liu Sheng looked and saw a handsome young man in white clothes slowly walking towards the stage.

This kind of elegant and frail young man is the type she admires.

Liu Sheng didn't know what she would do if she knew that there was an old man under the skin. Would she like him more?
Thinking of the stories about the thousand-year-old monster and the naive girl that Qu Chunyan had read, I always felt that it was possible.

There were many people as excited as Qu Chunyan. There were constant screams and shouts in the waiting area. Some were out of admiration and admiration, while others were out of comparison.

Although Liu Sheng was curious about Wen Xuanning's methods, he knew that he would not show his true strength at this stage, so he lost interest and just took a glance.

Unexpectedly, this glance happened to meet Wen Xuanning's gaze as he turned back to look at her.

This glance means a lot.

The corners of his mouth were gracefully curved like a spring breeze, as if he was greeting her familiarly.

This caused a bunch of girls in her direction to say, "Master Wen, are you looking at me? Right!"

It is normal to know that you are lustful and admire young girls.

Liu Sheng withdrew his gaze and was about to immerse himself in his own world.

Suddenly I heard a weak voice coming from beside me.

"Excuse me, Liu Huiyuan, can I sit next to you?"

There was a girl who was much shorter than her, standing beside her, with admiration in her eyes.

Her face was flushed, and I couldn't tell if it was because of the hot sun or because she was excited.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Liu Sheng was a little confused.

When the girl saw Liu Sheng paying attention to her, she immediately said excitedly: "It's normal that Liu Huiyuan doesn't know me. My name is Yun Jidao, and I am... your admirer!"

Xu Dajuan suddenly came over and asked, "Are you also an admirer of Sister Liu Sheng?"

The shy Yun Jidao was startled and stammered, "Dangdangdang... Ran!"

"Do you also admire Sister Liu Sheng for publishing her first two articles in "Cultivation Theory"? " Xu Dajuan asked.

Yun Jidao blinked, as if he didn't understand what this was saying.

Xu Dajuan immediately lost interest: "Then what do you worship?"

Liu Sheng also looked at Yun Jidao.

When Yun Jidao was looked at by Liu Sheng, his face turned even redder, but then he said with shining eyes: "Of course I admire Liu Huiyuan for vindicating the reputation of us poor children! Proving that we poor children can also pass the exam and get a high reputation."

Looking at her clothes, it was indeed just a scholar's robe from the academy, very simple and unusual.

Xu Dajuan didn't expect this to be the reason and was stunned for a moment.

He also came from a poor family, but he admired Liu Sheng entirely because of her knowledge and forgot about her background.

In recent years, it has become an indisputable fact that it is becoming increasingly difficult for children from poor families to rank top in the imperial examinations.

Basically, among the two hundred candidates for the palace examination, hundreds of them are from various aristocratic families, which is a very normal thing.

They have been nourishing their bodies with miraculous medicine since childhood, and even earlier they have been exposed to the way of communicating with the gods. How can they be compared with the poor children who work hard in the fields and mountains and learn about the outside world from the old books they have finally found? Therefore, Liu Sheng has now emerged and inadvertently become the spokesperson for the poor children.

……

At this time, Jiang Caibin and Qiao Yu were sitting in a small tavern on the street.

Jiang Caibin looked at Qiao Yu, who was gnawing on a rabbit head happily, with red sauce all over her face, and he couldn't help but frown.

The table was full of empty plates.

The box that was just filled with various kinds of braised meat, stewed meat, and boiled meat has now been sold out.

Qiao Yu had a large jar of wine in his hand, and had already drunk most of it.

As for why the two of them are together at this time, it’s a long story.

Yesterday, Liu Sheng was worried that Wang Dongdong would be unhappy if he rashly brought a stranger back with him. He even explained that he was in a hurry to take an exam so he placed her here first.

After all, this courtyard was rented by Wang Dongdong, so it would be better to book another inn for Qiao Yu.

But when Wang Dongdong heard that Qiao Yu had no parents and no home, he immediately felt sympathy. Moreover, both of them were straightforward people, so they hit it off right away and chatted for half the night.

The next day, Qiao Yu took the initiative to say that she would accompany Liu Sheng and Wang Dongdong to take the exam.

Liu Sheng thought it was not good to keep her at home all the time, so it would be good for her to go out for a walk. She simply asked Jiang Caibin, who happened to be free, to accompany her.

After all, he was unfamiliar with the place, it could even be considered another world, and Qiao Yu didn’t understand many of the rules.

Jiang Caibin immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Sister Qiao Yu is Sister Liu Sheng's friend, so she is my sister. I promise to let Sister Qiao Yu have a good time, stroll along Chang'an Street, see the beautiful scenery of Chang'an, and taste the delicious food of Chang'an!"

As a result, he talked about a lot of things, such as shopping for clothes and perfume, the top ten must-visit attractions in Chang'an, and going to Furong Pavilion to see beauties, but Qiao Yu was not interested in any of them.

I just want to stand guard at the palace gate, eat meat and drink wine.

"You really don't want to visit Chang'an?" Jiang Caibin asked cautiously, "This is the largest city in the Tang Kingdom. You... probably haven't seen such a prosperous metropolis."

He only knew that Qiao Yu came from a desolate and remote place, and thought that he had never seen it before.

Qiao Yu bit the soft cheek meat of the rabbit head in her hand and said vaguely, "It's really beautiful."

Yesterday I followed Liu Sheng to Chang'an. Although I only had a quick glance due to being in a hurry, I was still shocked by the colorful and prosperous scene.

Not to mention that there were crowds of people everywhere, countless times more than she had ever seen in her entire life.

Therefore, Qiao Yu also admitted: "I want to go shopping too."

"That……"

"But not today." Qiao Yu said, and after dealing with the rabbit head, he searched around.

Jiang Caibin knew that he should find something to wipe his hands, so he could only take out the fragrant handkerchief and handed it over, asking in confusion:
"Why?"

"I calculated that Shengsheng's fortune is not good today."

After saying this, Qiao Yu took another sip of wine and burped.

"Ah? You can still calculate?" Jiang Caibin asked in surprise.

Isn't this the kind of charlatan who tells fortunes for three cents under the bridge?
But they all look like immortals, or they are supernatural women who perform shaman rituals. How can they be like the big and strong woman in front of me?
Jiang Caibin's eyebrows jumped when he saw her wipe it casually and throw the greasy handkerchief aside.

Then, Jiang Caibin's eyes widened when he saw her take out a lottery ticket box from somewhere.

Just shook it.

A stick fell out.

"Yes, it is indeed a very bad omen." Qiao Yu took a look and with a flick of his hand, the lottery tube was put away.

"What is this? What is this?" Jiang Caibin was stunned.

"This is the ability I have evolved recently after my promotion." Qiao Yu scratched his head. "It's called 'Random Divination'. The more I calculate every day, the less accurate it is. I should only be able to calculate three accurate divinations a day now. This is the first one today."

If Liu Sheng were here, he would be able to deduce that the complete name of Qiao Yu's ability is [The 78th Generation Heavenly Master Descendant of Wang Miaoshan (Level: Weird Soldier)].

"This won't do!" Jiang Caibin suddenly became anxious.

Today is the last stage of the palace examination.

It’s a big failure. Doesn’t that mean Sister Liu Sheng will fail the exam?
