Breakfast was delivered quickly. Originally, Hongye wanted to ask Hongye to go to the Marquis Mansion to ask if His Highness Prince Ning was coming for dinner. However, before Hongye left the house, Yingwu ran over and said that His Highness Prince Ning was tired from the first day.

, I need to have a good rest today and let the children not disturb him.

"Since Uncle Wang said so, we won't disturb him anymore." Shen Cha looked at Ying Wu, "Have you eaten?"

"Not yet." Ying Wu waved his hand, "I came back to deliver a message and have some food and drinks on the way."

"If you haven't eaten, just sit down and eat. When you're full, go back and take a nap. If you have anything else to do, wait until you wake up."

Shen Haolin didn't let Shen Cha get off the imperial concubine chair. He took a small kang table and placed it at the end of the imperial concubine chair. He went to pick out a few snacks they liked, and placed two bowls of white porridge and a few dishes of side dishes on the small kang table.

.

Shen Cha smiled at Shen Haolin, picked up a steamed bun with plain stuffing and took a bite. He looked at Xue Ruitian who was eating soup noodles slowly over there, thought for a while, then turned to look at Shen Haolin who was slowly eating porridge.

"What's wrong? What do you want to say?" Shen Haolin kept paying attention to Shen Cha's movements and lowered his voice and said, "What's wrong with Xiaotian?"

"There's nothing wrong." Shen Cha shook his head, "I just suddenly remembered something. Back then, ancestor Xue left Xijing City before the martial arts test started. This decision was not that simple. He was not just running for it.

Those who take the martial arts exam must also take the literary test. His goal is to win the first prize in martial arts and also excel in the literary test. Although the examinee can choose to continue or quit according to his own wishes, the purpose of ancestor Xue

It’s so clear, even if you suffer a little setback, you won’t leave easily, right?”

"Well..." Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time, "I'm afraid this setback is not just a little bit!"

"How do you say that?" Shen Cha looked at the two of them, and then at the others who were equally confused, "Isn't it just because of the competition?" Seeing Shen Haolin, Xue Ruitian shook her head at the same time, and she frowned slightly, "Also

What? The challenge from those martial arts masters?"

"I'm afraid I know some of the secrets behind these martial provocations." Xue Ruitian took two sips of noodle soup, poked a piece of meat and took a bite. "We found a lot of books. I guess there are some records in them." He said softly.

Sighing, "Actually, I don't think the Emperor will only send people to disrupt the situation once. There will definitely be interference later. There will definitely be many small moves, and the people targeted will most likely be from this generation.

The martial arts master."

"It sounds reasonable, but something seems a little wrong." Shen Cha touched his chin, "Think about it, this imperial examination should be the first after the last emperor came to power, and it is also a literary examination.

, together with the martial arts test, wouldn’t he be slapping himself in the face if he did this?”

"I don't know, maybe gaining power is more important than face!" Xue Ruitian sighed, "I guess our ancestors have been plotted more than once, including ancestor Shen, and it was very chilling, so I had no choice but to make a decision

This choice." He finished eating a bowl of noodles, touched his belly, and took another mutton bun to gnaw on. "To be honest, if it weren't for that grand master, with Emperor Mo's style of doing things and his paranoid and suspicious character, the future would have been impossible.

The dynasty will also be doomed."

"Agree." Jin Jing nodded, "If the last emperor hadn't been in poor health in the later period, his cruel methods would have been even crazier. I don't know if you have noticed that the ones the last emperor used were not from aristocratic families, but from aristocratic families.

Emerging forces." Seeing a few people thinking thoughtfully, he continued, "Families like the Shen family are the targets of his attacks, but..."

"At that time, the Shen family was only a second-rate family. Before it was his turn to attack, he fell ill. His father-in-law took over from him and continued to attack the family. Therefore, there should be only two ways for the family in Xijing City at that time.

"

"One is to seek refuge with the Grand Master, and the other is to stand against the Grand Master." Shen Cha sighed, "Of course there are those like the Xuanyuan family who remain neutral, don't side with anyone, don't help anyone, and the powerful ones

The grand master can't... no, to be precise, they don't dare to do anything to him. They know very well that once he does anything, the entire dynasty will collapse."

"Tsk tsk tsk, tsk tsk tsk, listen."

"Just seeking truth from facts." Shen Cha glanced at Xue Ruitian and finally finished a bun. Looking at the hot porridge in front of him, he slowly drank half the bowl, pushed it directly to Shen Haolin, and rinsed it with two pieces of crispy melon.

He rinsed his mouth and tilted his head again. "Brother Xiaotian, ask yourself, or ask brother Xiaojue, do you dare to attack the Xuanyuan family?"

"This..." Xue Ruitian swallowed a mouthful of saliva and waved his hand, "To be honest, I don't dare to move. I don't dare to move."

"That's it. The Xuanyuan family is not a family from the previous dynasty, nor is it a family from our Daxia, but a family that has existed since ancient times. It is difficult to tell which force it belongs to for such a family, isn't it?"

"Xiaocha is right." Jin Jing nodded, "When you said that, I had another guess."

"The departure of our ancestor was the result of the persuasion of the examiner Xuanyuan, right?" Seeing Jin Jing nodding, Xue Ruitian sighed, "This may be really big, the examiner has already spoken, it is impossible for our ancestor not to know what happened.

Considering the seriousness, and the fact that all those who followed him have disappeared, he probably understands how muddy the water in Xijing City is."

"Good guy, you're not afraid of being incapable, you're afraid of being capable!" Ying Wu sighed heavily, shook his head helplessly, took a bite of the sauced pork, and sighed, "If the previous dynasty doesn't fall, then it will be the real one.
