"Young miss, please give me a question."

Ah, was it her turn?

Gu Jiao froze.

Everyone was challenging him in poetry, but she knew nothing about poetry ah.

Actually, she did know a bit, but she was so preoccupied with gazing at the beautiful man that there was nothing else in her mind right now.

Gu Jiao blinked and spun her eyes around, "Er... The sun beyond the mountain glows?"

Everyone stumbled!

No, girl, just what kind of question were you asking? Even a three-year-old child could answer that! The new Zhuangyuan was a G.o.d who could even recite ‘The Commentary of Zuo’ backwards, you know!

Xiao Liulang went ‘oh’, looked at her fixedly and said in earnest, "This humble one is lacking. I lost."

Everyone: "…"

Hey, hey, new Zhuangyuan, this phrase, how could you not even——

Everyone simply didn't know what to say. Just then, another young lady stepped forward and said something that most people present couldn't understand.

Xiao Liulang looked at her coldly and responded with a series of words that people also failed to understand.

The previous girl in purple was confused, "Sister? What were they saying just now?"

The young Taoist nun raised her eyebrow and said, "That young miss just said to the new Zhuangyuan, 'The sun beyond the mountain glows,' in the language of the State of Chen."

"Huh?" The girl in purple was surprised.

The young Taoist nun added slowly, "Then the new Zhuangyuan responded to her, ‘the Yellow River seawards flows,’ using the language of the State of Chen, State of Liang, State of Qing, State of Jin and State of Yan."

Did that young miss really think that the new Zhuangyuan couldn’t match this phrase? She must have thought that she could s.n.a.t.c.h this opportunity by making the question a higher level than that of the girl in dark clothes, then the new Zhuangyuan would regard her with special respect and treat her differently.

As a result, she was severely slapped in the face.

If other than her asked, he would answer, if she asked, he wouldn’t.

He would win against the world and lose only to her.

Most of them were not sure what was going on, they just watched as the face of the girl, who spoke in bird language just now, suddenly turned into the color of pig’s liver.

The remarks of the young Taoist nun were spread out by the servant girls, only then did the crowd know what was happening.

They went out of their houses and scrambled to the streets so early in the morning to see the new Zhuangyuan that they didn't even have breakfast. But now all of them were full and even their teeth seemed about to fall out.

In the end, Gu Jiao got the flower hairpin of the new Zhuangyuan.

She observed the flower hairpin in her hand and couldn't put it down.

So beautiful!

Xiao Liulang looked at her from a distance, his eyes filled with tenderness that even himself didn't notice.

Suddenly, a small head emerged from between Gu Jiao's arms.

"Yi? A flower? JiaoJiao, I want to wear it!" Little Jing Kong said as his two tiny hands patted his little bald head.

Seeing this scene, the young ladies felt like reaching out their hands.

Little brother, you had no hair, just give it to your sister!

See, your sister's hair was quite thick!

Little Jing Kong grunted and turned his face away. Nope, he wanted to wear it!

Gu Jiao made a headband for Little Jing Kong with a scarf, and then inserted the flower hairpin into the headband. Little Jing Kong, adorned with a big red flower, shook his little bald head happily.

The new Zhuangyuan‘s face went black.

Gu Jiao's goal was the three flower hairpins. She already obtained the Zhuangyuan’s flower hairpin, next were the flower hairpins of the Bangyan and Tanhua.

Faced with An Junw.a.n.g, her mind was calm and wasn’t in a mush state at all. She directly threw the other party an arithmetic problem.

An Junw.a.n.g：“…”

In fact, An Junw.a.n.g planned to lose to her like Xiao Liulang did from the beginning, but he didn't expect her to give him such a difficult question.

Who taught her that? Xiao Liulang?

How come she showed so much leniency to Xiao Liulang, but the moment it was his turn, she suddenly took it very seriously?

An Junw.a.n.g took a deep breath, "I admit defeat."

Xiao Liulang’s eyes narrowed as he watched An Junw.a.n.g throw his flower hairpin to Gu Jiao, his gaze was frighteningly cold.

But soon, Gu Jiao took aim at the Tanhua, Ning Zhiyuan.

Because of Ning Zhiyuan's appearance, no one had challenged him yet, so he could have chosen to just give the flower hairpin to Gu Jiao. But Ning Zhiyuan didn't want to give it away. He already made up his mind that if anyone challenged him, he would reject them all and keep the flower hairpin in his hands.

Seeing that Gu Jiao actually wanted Ning Zhiyuan's flower hairpin, Xiao Liulang wasn’t upset at all.

Ning Zhiyuan tenaciously covered his own flower hairpin.

He wouldn’t give it away.

He wanted to keep it as a family heirloom and pa.s.s it on to his descendants from generation to generation.

"Give the flower hairpin away." The new Zhuangyuan threatened.

"I won’t." Ning Zhiyuan refused.

"There would be serious consequences if you don’t give it away." The new Zhuangyuan continued to threaten in a matter-of-fact manner, "I'm the Zhuangyuan, I can make your life difficult."

Ning Zhiyuan: "…"

The top three Jins.h.i.+ were qualified to directly enter the Hanlin Academy, and the Zhuangyuan's official position was higher than that of the Bangyan and Tanhua, in other words, it was indeed possible for the Zhuangyuan to make things difficult for the Tanhua.

In the past, there was King Gou Jian of Yue who suffered patiently while waiting for the right time to exact revenge. Now there was him, Ning Zhiyuan, tearfully sending his flower hairpin away!

Ning Zhiyuan suffered in silence as he gave away the imperial flower hairpin.

Oh, his family’s heirloom was gone just like that.

Obtaining the three flower hairpins, Gu Jiao became the first woman to collect all three flower hairpins since the State of Zhao established its dynasty. She did what even the Crown Princess couldn’t. For a while, she was in the limelight.

Xiao Liulang, as the new Zhuangyuan, was the most popular man this day, and Gu Jiao had undoubtedly become the most popular woman today.

No need to mention how much heated discussion arose among the people because of them.

The parade lasted for nearly an hour. After that, they crossed Chang'an Street under the leaders.h.i.+p of the new Zhuangyuan, arrived at the Jingzhao Office where their achievements were officially recorded, and enjoyed a lunch banquet. After which, they were able to go home.

"Liulang, I still feel that all these aren’t real." In the entrance hall of the Jingzhao Office, Feng Lin told Xiao Liulang with a surge of emotion, "Marching all the way here and seeing so many people looking at me. I… I have never felt so well-regarded in my life."
