However, whenever the top scholar appeared, the Sage would make some comments, and also make some comments on the top 100 people of Dragon and Phoenix Sect.

The dream of countless people throughout their lives was to be ranked within the top 100. However, the Great Dao was extremely difficult, much more difficult than ascending to the heavens. Even in the top thousand, he was one of the top figures.

For Zhao Lingyi, meals were eaten piece by piece, and the path was taken step by step. Right now, he only wanted to make Lady Gongsun fear him, so he couldn't make a move on her. Otherwise, if Zhao Zhizhan changed his mind and sent him out, then he wouldn't have the strength to turn the situation around.

Fei Yan did not know about the long term events, she only knew that the current young miss was truly powerful, which was why she was so excited. Clenching her fists, she asked happily: "Is young miss going to meet someone? I heard that the people who are here are all the most outstanding young masters and mistresses of big clans, so it's a good opportunity for little miss to get to know some people. "

Zhao Lingyi smiled faintly and shook his head. In the capital, where fourth-grade officials were everywhere and had as many fifth-grade officials as dogs. The Zhao Family's young talents were nothing to these people. Moreover, Zhao Zhizhan had climbed up a little from a minor official as a High Scholar, and because he had married a noble lady, he had risen to the top in a single step.

Normally, if someone wanted to visit him, he or she would deliver the invitation in advance. As for the people outside, he or she would rather want to meet them, so he or she would invite them over to satisfy their curiosity. There was no respect in his or her heart, so why should he or she go over there?

"I've hit the jackpot. I should be participating in the Scholars' Federation." Zhao Lingyi had already made up her mind. She jumped off the swing and smiled. "Come here and help me comb my makeup."

Flying Swallow's heart skipped a beat as she muttered to herself. It was said that Aunty Xiao was even prettier than her young mistress back then. Who knew what kind of immortal person she was?

As he thought about this, he also quickly walked in and started to rummage through the boxes.

The two of them had always relied on each other for their lives, and Lady Gongsun had never thought that anyone would be able to make it onto the list. The majority of her thoughts were on watching a joke, so this person became the head of the table.

When the maidservants were cleaning the courtyard, there were only two of them. Naturally, the only one that fit her was Fei Yan.

The banquet still needed to be handled with care, so there must be no mistakes in the clothes. As soon as she entered, she began to choose her clothes. Most likely, she would choose those beautiful colors and think that her young miss was pretty, so she should dress up more carefully.

Zhao Lingyi only glanced at it for a second before saying, "Pick some plain and simple items. It's best if they are embroidered with plum blossoms, bamboo, and other similar items. They have bones of the wind."

The people below held her high and lowered, which was also normal. The clothes she made weren't made of good material, even if the color was gorgeous, it was mostly impetuous, and even the flower markings on the clothes were also made of the same kind of cloth. Just a simple and convenient cloth, the price was also cheap. However, because it was so perfunctory, it was not beautiful. Instead, it was extremely exaggerated.

After listening to her young mistress's words, Feiyan looked up those plain and simple things. The reason why these clothes were plain and clean was because the fabric they made was extremely difficult to sew. Moreover, they were fine and naturally valuable. These clothes that were sewn with needle and thread were only embroidered with scattered flowers.

Zhao Lingyi changed into a set of grey and white clothes. Because of his thin physique, he looked good in anything he wore. The lighter colors appeared delicate and pretty. The plum blossoms that were embroidered were small and reserved. There was nothing else.

Since the clothes were light, the jewelry that was stuck in the bun naturally came along as well. It was just a few silver ornaments, such as a jade hairpin. He also used one or two bunches of silver leaves, which adorned his ears and gave off a delicate and exquisite feeling.

After she finished her makeup, she hesitated and whispered, "Miss, is it too clean? Everyone says they only recognize clothes …"

She hadn't finished speaking, but she understood clearly. She was afraid that her young lady wouldn't be dressed well and would be bullied again. After all, there were plenty of people who were jealous.

Zhao Lingyi smiled lightly, disagreeing, "My family's background is not that high, and I'm a concubine. I can't be spoiled like this, so why do I have to go and slap my face to make a fat man out of it? In any case, I'm afraid that this little bit of wealth of mine has been wiped clean by someone else. "

Fei Yan saw that her young lady had an idea, so she didn't say anything more. Anyway, the young lady was very clever, she didn't often study, and she also passed the examination. She definitely knew it better than him, so all he needed was to be obedient.

After he finished tidying up the area, he was still a distance away from noon. It was just right for him to call someone over.

Coincidentally, the restaurant they had booked was not far from the Zhao Mansion, so Zhao Ling Yi didn't even take a car. He was ready to walk over there by himself.

He naturally could not bring his servant girl to participate in the literary gathering. After tidying up a bit, he went out alone.

When the people on the other side of the door left, someone reported the matter of leaving the house to Mrs. Gongsun.

This was what he had said before. The direct descendant of the family was still here, and Madame Gongsun couldn't be bothered to pay attention to the concubine. Not to mention having someone watch over her all the time, she wouldn't even question them for a year or so. Furthermore, she was living such a good life that she couldn't help but want to see if there was anything bad that could make her happy.

Ever since his son died, his wife's body was in a worse condition. Every time she woke up at midnight, she would dream that her son had told her that it was her little sister who had taken his life. This made her feel even more uncomfortable. Right now, his own son had not even passed the Scholar's examination, but the other party had obtained first place. This was definitely a blessing in disguise for his son!

"Going out alone?"

Mrs. Gongsun was leaning on the couch, her body covered with a silk quilt. In front of her was a kang with a smoky stove. The smoky smoke made her feel drowsy.

However, at this moment, when she heard the news, her spirits were suddenly lifted. Her eyes lit up. "But I've caught it."

Yun Qi, who was sitting modestly by the side of the leaf, heard his words, her eyelids jumped as she hurriedly said, "Aunt must think twice. This person has already become first place, and there is also the protection of Cheng Shizi nearby. If we do it openly, it would be very easy to find out that it's us who did it.

She was very clear that she hated Zhao Lingyi because he had stolen her limelight and made her lose face. However, the most important thing was still her own good life. If she lost her life because of Zhao Lingyi, then that would be the loss of money.

At this moment, he was in such a hurry because he was afraid that his aunt would lose her sense of propriety in doing things due to such a fit of anger. In fact, he had never been confident about it, because he had already seen from the past few days that his aunt did not behave appropriately. It was because her life had gone smoothly, so she could not afford any problems, and once there were any accidents, she would be at a loss and go crazy.

Lady Gongsun bit down on her lower lip and bit out a row of teeth marks. Still unable to resolve her hatred, she hatefully said, "Let her go this time. How high are you going to climb, a lowly woman?"

It was only then that Gongsun Yunqi let out a sigh of relief. This matter was bad for him, but it would only bring him benefits. He had to endure this moment of anger and vent it all out later.

Seeing that it was getting late, she stood up and bowed. "I also have to go to this Scholar's Banquet. I'll be leaving first, Aunt."

Lady Gongsun waved her hand. At this moment, her mind was in a complete mess. She was so angry that she didn't know what to say. She had time to meddle in other people's affairs. He didn't feel like doing anything, so he called for his men to leave quickly.

Gongsun Yunqi pursed his lips and raised his hand. Immediately, a servant girl came up to help them. The two of them turned around and left.

He had obviously done well on the exam. He should have received the admiration of others and the praise of his loved ones. However, Zhao Jingyi had made a ruckus. No one had put him through so much trouble to get on the exam.

His feet stepped on a pair of embroidered shoes with soft soles. The soft soles of his oxskin and tendons silently stepped on the ground. She took each step lightly, and the distance between each step was exactly the same. She seemed so calm, but in reality, her heart was filled with waves of emotions.

She couldn't help but grab the servant girl's hand to vent her anger. Her fingertips were cut into an elliptical shape, easily scratching one wound after another. The servant girl was in pain, but she didn't even dare to dodge.

After leaving the room, the woman let out a long breath and released her hand. The maid's hand had already started to turn red.

The servant girl knew that her mistress was in a bad mood, and that she was the one who had suffered. She quickly said, "My lady, you know that even if an evil person takes first place in the rankings, so what? He was still a poor girl that couldn't get on the stage. Miss has an outstanding appearance, natural talent, and is good at socializing with others. Look, didn't you prepare today's banquet for the students? It can be seen how much Fellow Li trusts you.

When the servant girl spoke, she was definitely picking up on the pleasantries. However, after hearing such pleasantries, her mood had indeed calmed down quite a bit. Even her beautiful face that was like ice was relieved. "So what if I trust you? She is still at the top of the rankings. In the end, it's still possible for her to stay in the limelight for a while longer. "

"Then let her shine for a while, just for a while." The servant understood. These words of his were what the Miss wanted, so he became even more diligent, "I will follow your instructions, Miss, first tell those coachmen of mine that they are not allowed to give Zhao Lingyi any use, but who would have thought that Zhao Lingyi would be so despicable that he did not even think about taking the carriage when he left, and just walked out on his own. Just a moment ago, this servant heard someone say that he was wearing a set of tattered clothes. Even the clothes that the young miss bestowed upon this servant cannot compare to. "
