The queen is fierce and cute

Chapter 168
As Pei Junyi expected, the candidate named Lin Yuan was defeated in less than a stick of incense.

"Hahaha! Good! Good!" After saying two good words in succession, the emperor ordered someone to bring Jing Li over.

Pei Junyi felt a little uneasy in his heart. He was far away before, and his father could see Jing Li's figure, but he might not be able to see his face clearly.

Now let him get close, he can see clearly, what if he sees something?

When Jing Li was brought over, Pei Junyi's worries disappeared immediately.

During the Qingming Festival, he took advantage of the chance that Xiaowu and Eleven went out for a spring outing, and met Jingli.

At that time, he was by no means what he is now. Although he is handsome now, he looks more restrained than that time. If he didn't know, he must be Jing Li. He might not have recognized him if he met him on the street.

Since he couldn't even recognize him, let alone his father.

"The grassroots refer to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Although he won the first place, but he has not been rewarded yet, Jing Li still wants to call himself a grassroots.

"En, good!" The emperor raised his hand, motioned him to get up, and looked at him carefully.

The more he watched, the happier he became, so he smiled and asked some questions, including the number of people in his family, whether he was married or not.

Jing Li replied 'truthfully', and the emperor was even more happy after hearing it.

The fifth princess sat beside the emperor, sizing up the winners in the martial arts test. Before, she could only take a rough look, but she didn't expect that he was such a young and handsome man. Looking at his young age, he was probably about the same as Seventh Brother and her.

At such an age, it's really not easy for his subordinates to be so good at it.

She didn't think much about it, she just felt that it was a blessing for the court to have such a person in the court.

Since Jing Li hadn't participated in the literary test yet, the emperor didn't say much. Afterwards, the top ten candidates selected in the military test all came before the emperor, and the emperor personally handed over a medal to them.

Afterwards, if there are still people who take the essay test, they will not be assigned until the results are completely out.

The literary test is scheduled for two days later. After all, there are candidates for the martial arts test, and they need some time to rest and tidy up.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is here." In Yongfu Palace, Concubine Yao was practicing calligraphy, and she couldn't help being a little surprised when she heard Shao Yao's reply.

After the incident in Yongning Palace, the emperor hadn't entered the harem for a while, and the selection process was underway, so he thought it would take at least half a month before he heard the news of the emperor's entry into the harem.

Putting down the pen in his hand, he walked out from behind the desk, the emperor entered the hall, and supported Yao Guifei who was about to salute.

"My beloved concubine is free." Holding her hand, he turned his head and saw the bed spread on the desk, he walked over with Concubine Yao, and looked at the desk. "Aifei's handwriting has improved again."

"I made the emperor laugh." She said with a smile, Concubine Yao quietly led the emperor away from the desk and sat down on the soft couch.

"I heard that the emperor is busy with court affairs recently, please take care of your health." Some palace servants brought refreshments and put them on the small table. Concubine Yao's concerned words made the emperor smile and nod.

"I came to you mainly because of Xiaowu's affairs. Presumably Aifei knows that the selection process is underway in the court, and the winner of the martial arts test has already been selected. He is a rare talent. Although he is only a commoner, he is very capable. I reckon that he will be the top scorer in the essay test."

Concubine Yao praised Jing Li, and the smile on the emperor's face deepened, "I think, if he wins the first place in the essay test again, I will find a chance for you to take a look."

Concubine Yao had already heard about Jingli's matter in the palace, and now the emperor took the initiative to come to talk about it, which shows how much he valued that person.

Concubine Yao couldn't help but look forward to it.
