Imperial Palace.
Ying Fuyan finally managed to dismiss the officials.
There weren't many people left in the hall. Only Wei Zhao, Xiao Huaian, and...
He Xuran looked displeased as he approached Wei Zhao.
"Is there nothing you want to say to me?"
He didn't dare question Gu Fuju, as he was an elder.
Nor did he dare question Ying Fuyan, as he was the emperor.
Wei Zhao seemed lost in thought, perhaps his mind wasn't there, and he didn't respond.
Xiao Huaian spoke up, "Why not ask me?"
"Ask you?"
Like hell.
He Xuran: "I finally understand why you always call me second place for life."
Because Xiao Huaian couldn't take the exam and was jealous that he took his second place.
"When Wei Zhao left the Imperial College, he couldn't stand seeing me take the top spot, and you clamored to bring him back to suppress me."
He Xuran: "I always thought you were just being unreasonable."
But now it seems.
You were indeed being unreasonable!
Some things shouldn't be overanalyzed.
