"What the hell is this?" Wei Maoran couldn't help but curse!
Seeing something on the ground, he immediately picked it up to take a look!
"What is it?" Wei Maoran opened the scroll, and a slip of paper suddenly fell out!
Examination Questions!
Looking at the four characters "Examination Questions" on the slip, Wei Maoran wiped his squinting eyes!
He looked again and again!
Finally, he nodded with satisfaction! He almost burst out laughing!
In Wei Maoran's mind, this was a windfall from heaven. He didn't care who dropped it here, as long as it could help him achieve high honors tomorrow!
Back in the study!
Wei Maoran was flustered!
What kind of questions were these? So obscure!
After much thought, he still couldn't figure them out!
Suddenly!
Wei Maoran had an idea!
He could find that kid Wei Xiaochang!
Last time, he went to the poetry gathering in his place and even got second place! He was bestowed the title of Young Master Wen Yu, which caused his mother to scold him for a long time!
No! He had to find him for this matter. If he couldn't figure it out, it would be intentional! He would make him pay!
Wei Maoran took the examination paper and went to Wei Xiaochang's small courtyard!
When he arrived at the courtyard, he found that Wei Xiaochang was not there!
Upon inquiring with a servant, he learned that Wei Xiaochang had left the mansion, seemingly heading to some library!
Thinking that the imperial examination was tomorrow, Wei Maoran dared not slack off. He immediately left the mansion and headed in the direction of the library!
Inside the library!
This place had all sorts of books! It was also one of the places students loved to frequent!
Currently, in a corner of the library!
Qin Yun, Ouyang Siqing, Wei Xiaochang, and Zheng Haonan were all there!
The four of them were learned scholars, all possessing exceptional talent!
At this moment, the four were reciting poetry and composing couplets, enjoying themselves immensely!
Qin Yun had not intended to come out tonight!
But he was warmly invited by Wei Xiaochang, and hearing that Ouyang Siqing was also there, she decided to come and see!
Just as the four were chatting and laughing heartily! Wei Maoran suddenly appeared!
Wei Maoran's face was covered in sweat. He was already short, fat, and quite unattractive!
Large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his fringe hair fell down, making him truly unbearable to look at!
Qin Yun covered her mouth and giggled beside him!
She felt as if she were looking at a pig that had fallen into water, it was hilariously funny!
At this moment, Wei Maoran had no time to care about anything else! He grabbed Wei Xiaochang and walked aside!
"Brother, what is it? Why are you looking for me?" Wei Xiaochang also felt that Wei Maoran had something to discuss with him!
His older brother rarely sought him out for trivial matters!
Whenever he looked for him, it was definitely for help!
Pulling Wei Xiaochang to a corner not far away!
Seeing that there was no one around, Wei Maoran took out the scroll!
"Xiaochang! Brother was reading and doing practice questions in the study today, and suddenly came across a question I couldn't answer. I remembered you came second in the poetry gathering, so you must know this type of question. I wanted to ask for your help and have it explained!" Wei Maoran opened the scroll and handed it to Wei Xiaochang.
Wei Xiaochang took the scroll and began to read it carefully.
After a while, Wei Xiaochang was still looking at it. Wei Maoran couldn't help but interrupt, "Xiaochang, how is it? Do you know?"
"Brother, where did you get these questions from?" Wei Xiaochang asked curiously!
Wei Maoran felt a little flustered and pretended to be angry, "Can you do it or not? If not... can you let those few people try?"
Wei Maoran actually had a selfish motive, but seeing Wei Xiaochang's expression, he didn't seem to know much.
In desperation, he had to ask the three people inside for help!
Besides, these questions wouldn't be known by these people, and he wasn't afraid of the matter being exposed. If this matter were to be exposed, everyone who knew about it would be finished!
Thinking of this, Wei Maoran felt much more relieved!
"I know the answers to these questions, but the answers I know may not be perfect!"
Not perfect? That wouldn't do!
Wei Maoran immediately decided to let Wei Xiaochang take the scroll in and ask Qin Yun, Ouyang Siqing, and Zheng Haonan!
These people were all in the top four of the poetry gathering. If they didn't know the answers, no one else would!
Of course... these people were the ones he hated the most, especially Qin Yun, whom he hated to the bone!
However... now was not the time for a direct confrontation. He heard that Qin Yun had been close to the little overlord Xie Jingan recently!
Now he was an eyesore to Xie Jingan, so he couldn't offend Qin Yun further! At least not yet!
"Then take it to them to see and help out!" Wei Maoran urged!
"Brother, why don't you come with me?" Wei Xiaochang suggested!
Wei Maoran shook his head. "Forget it, they won't like me! I just had a falling out with that Qin Yun a few days ago! If I go over now... I'll definitely be lectured!"
Wei Xiaochang smiled. "Brother, Young Master Qin is very nice. If you don't provoke her, she won't target you!"
Wei Maoran still shook his head. "Let's not. Hurry up and ask them for me!"
Seeing Wei Maoran's insistence, Wei Xiaochang didn't make things difficult for him. He took the scroll and went into the inner room in the corner!
Seeing Wei Xiaochang return with something else in his hand, Qin Yun asked curiously, "What did your older brother want from you? Did he give you any trouble?"
Wei Xiaochang unfolded the scroll and placed it in the middle of the four of them.
"Brother gave me a scroll of exam questions. He said he wanted me to help solve them. I'm afraid I won't solve them perfectly, so I wanted to ask the three of you to take a look."
After seeing the exam questions, the three of them thought for a moment! Qin Yun first thought of how to solve the problem, but she did not say it immediately!
What puzzled her now was not how to solve the problem, but Wei Maoran's behavior!
Based on her understanding of Wei Maoran, was he such an earnest student?
Tomorrow was the crucial period of the imperial examination, and the days leading up to it were critical for them. Every question they answered during this period was closely related to the imperial examination!
Qin Yun's words made the three of them feel that it made sense!
So they silently chose to remain silent!
Seeing this, Wei Xiaochang looked a little troubled. "The three of you, what should we do now? I can't just refuse my brother's request! Otherwise, Father will think I'm selfish!"
