Si Mubai silently took out his money and bought the same gambling ticket as Jiang Zhao.

Wei Xiang and Jiuqi followed suit.

After finishing the operation, the shopkeeper couldn't even close his mouth with laughter.

These young men are all handsome and handsome, but why are they so brainless?

But if someone gives him money, he will naturally be happy.

He quickly collected the money they handed over and handed them the gambling tickets.

In his heart, the money belongs to him, and the new champion will most likely be beheaded tomorrow.

After getting the gambling tickets, Jiang Zhao and his party left.

Si Mubai looked at the gambling ticket in his hand and asked, "Tian Ran, are you so sure that His Majesty will not punish you tomorrow?"

Jiang Zhao smiled and said very bachelorly: "No."

"Then when you buy this gambling ticket, aren't you just giving money to the stall owner?" Si Mubai was a little confused.

After spending so long together, he knew how much Jiang Zhao valued money.

Although she doesn't care much about the amount of money, she will never allow her money to go down the drain.

Jiang Zhao spread his hands: "To buy myself a goal."

"Then we bought you so many goals today. You have to work hard to get the emperor to grant you an official position tomorrow, otherwise our money will be wasted." Si Mubai encouraged with a smile.

But no matter what the result is tomorrow, he will keep Jiang Zhao safe.

Wei Xiang walked behind Jiang Zhao. No matter what the outcome would be tomorrow, he would stand behind Jiang Zhao.

Jiang Zhao herself was unsure. She just hoped that if something happened to her tomorrow, these friends would not be affected.

Especially Wei Xiang. Although she has always regarded Wei Xiang as her friend, Wei Xiang is still a slave on the surface. If something happens to her master, Wei Xiang will not be immune.

There are also Simu Bai and the others, although she is not worried that Simu Bai will be implicated by her.

But if she had implicated these two people, she still felt guilty in her heart.

Jiang Zhao sighed, and then said: "Let's go home. We have a tough battle to fight tomorrow. We have to rest early today."

So the group hurried home.

After Jiang Zhao returned to his room, he washed up and planned to go to bed.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk-"

At this time there was a knock on the door.

Jiang Zhao stood up and opened the door, and found that it was Si Mubai knocking on the door. She asked, "Brother Mubai, what can you do at this late hour?"

Si Mubai said: "Tianran, I want to talk to you."

Seeing him coming, Jiang Zhao already knew the purpose of Si Mubai's visit. She turned slightly and said, "Come in."

After entering the door, Si Mubai sat down, thought for a long time, and then said: "Tianran, you are going to the palace to meet the saint tomorrow. To be honest, I don't want you to go."

"But if you want to go, I won't stop you."

"It's just that if something happens to you tomorrow, I still hope you can come with me."

He was worried that Jiang Zhao would not be able to leave his hometown and would not want to leave with him.

Jiang Zhao knew that Si Mubai was already accommodating to him, so he nodded: "Okay, if something happens to me tomorrow, I will definitely leave with Brother Xian as soon as possible."

Although she wanted to take a gamble, she didn't want to risk her life and fortune.

If you lose the bet, then follow Si Mubai and you will only cause trouble for him.

Seeing Jiang Zhao nod, Si Mubai breathed a sigh of relief. He was not afraid that Jiang Zhao would cause trouble to him, but he was worried that Jiang Zhao would not agree to go with him because he was afraid of causing trouble to him.

Then, Si Mubai stood up and said, "Then you have a good rest tonight. I'll leave first."

After Simu Bai left, Jiang Zhao lay on the bed and fell asleep after a while.

But the mansions of those aristocratic families were still brightly lit.

After learning that this year's new top scorer is a woman, how can they sleep tonight?

Several aristocratic families gathered together to discuss how to deal with Jiang Zhao tomorrow.

After a day of discussion, we came to the unanimous conclusion that tomorrow we must petition the emperor to strip him of his title and behead him in public.

As a result, two of the top three candidates in this year's palace examination will be children of aristocratic families, and the number one candidate will be children of aristocratic families. In this way, the aristocratic family's face is still saved.

The next day.

Jiang Zhao was woken up by Wei Xiang at the moment he was in Yinshi.

For today's court meeting, they need to enter the palace to meet the saint, and the court meeting usually starts at the fifth quarter of the Yin hour.

Being woken up early here, Jiang Zhao felt that he was about to get angry when he got up, which he had not done for many years.

Wei Xiang helped her find a rich brocade robe and put it on. She was still dressed as a man as before, and did not change back to women's clothes.

Wearing a light green robe, her hair has not been tied up with a scarf, and her hair is like ink, hanging loosely on her shoulders.

Her body was spotless, and she stood in the middle of the yard. The sky was so pale that even the sunlight was too embarrassed to leave mottled tree shadows on her body.

Si Mubai opened the door and walked out, also dressed in rich clothes.

Different from Jiang Zhao's fresh light green clothes, his robes were snow white and equally spotless.

Standing there, she looked like a white snow lotus in Kunlun.

Jiang Zhao was slightly stunned by Si Mubai's appearance.

Si Mubai looked at Jiang Zhao and was dumbfounded.

Although Jiang Zhao is still dressed in men's clothing today, her hair is not tied up, and her feminine beauty can still be seen.

Si Mubai stepped forward, looked at her and said, "Tianran, don't enter the palace."

He was worried that Jiang Zhao's beauty would be noticed by the emperor. What if the emperor asked her to enter the palace as a concubine?

For some reason, when he thought about the possibility of Jiang Zhao entering the palace as a concubine, he felt depressed and panicked.

At this time, Wei Xiang walked out of Jiang Zhao's room, holding a scarf with the same color as Jiang Zhao's clothes. He naturally stood behind her and hid all her dark hair in the scarf.

"Brother Mubai, what did you say?" She didn't hear clearly what Simubai said just now.

Si Mubai shook his head: "Nothing."

He didn't say anything anymore. He knew Jiang Zhao's character well, and since he had already decided, he would not change it.

After Wei Xiang helped Jiang Zhao tie up his hair, he said, "Master, let's go eat first."

Aunt Ding had prepared breakfast early this morning. When Jiang Zhao sat down to eat, he could tell that today's breakfast was carefully prepared by Aunt Ding.

Jiang Zhaohu had a big meal today, but Wei Xiang did not stop himself from eating so much.

Because there were so many delicious foods in this era, which she had never tasted or heard of, Jiang Zhao had been indulging herself for a while.

Knowing that she had gained a lot of weight, she was shocked to realize that she had eaten too much.

She asked Wei Xiang to urge her to lose weight, and Wei Xiang was very conscientious and would stop letting her eat every time she was seventy percent full.

But Wei Xiang didn't stop her today, and even kept picking up vegetables for her.

After eating, Jiang Zhao held his belly and walked out of the dining room. Grandma Ding's cooking skills were really good.

If Wei Xiang hadn't been supervising her on weekdays, she would probably have gained weight again.
