"I don't deserve it."
Xiao Dazi politely received the scroll and delivered it up the steps, handing it to his godfather.
Emperor Liang spent noticeably more time looking at this scroll than the previous one.
Prince Jin held his breath nervously.
What did Qi'er draw?
Could it be a topic even harder than animal husbandry?
Prince Jin had misunderstood the nature of this competition from the start.
He thought it was an exam to crown the champion scholar, combining both literary and martial skills. Little did he know, with the officials setting the questions, the topics were wildly varied. Not drawing a topic like "breaking a stone on the chest" was already considered legitimate.
After all, many of those setting the questions were not particularly serious-minded Military Generals, like Duke Jiang.
Emperor Liang's expression was indescribable: "This question is void."
Mr. Zimu was disappointed.
Revenge on that brat is indeed difficult.
