Unexpectedly, this led to a few stories.
In due time, the Number One Scholar, the Second Place Scholar, and the Third Place Scholar bid farewell to Wei Shu, mounted their high-headed horses from the Imperial Palace, and received the admiration and praise of the crowd.
Ouyang Chengze and Zhang Fengmian were naturally exceptional.
In terms of appearance, build, and age, they were all top-notch.
The Third Place Scholar was slightly inferior by comparison.
He was over thirty, and in contrast to the two young lads, his looks could only be considered average.
However, when joyous events come, one's spirit lifts. Now that he had achieved Third Place, he was in high spirits, looking several years younger.
As they progressed, the citizens welcomed them along the way, forming a massive crowd.
Some well-informed people were already explaining.
"This Third Place Scholar is already married, and his children are over ten years old!"
