Chapter 2190 Must Hit

"That's fine. I'm also waiting for my cousin in Taizhou. I'll go to the palace tomorrow and there will be nothing to do. I think I can go back in ten days." Gu Xin nodded and said to the three Ying ladies, "Ladies, if you have that intention, you can actually go now. There are many people, and it's fun to go together. If you have children at home, you can also take them to the Wanjuan Road in advance. You can't stay in one place all the time. You have to go out more and broaden your horizons."

"My cousin, my uncle's son, went out with people when he was twelve years old. This time he went out to study alone, and he didn't even bring anyone with him." Gu Xin talked about Gu En again.

"The reputation of the fourth son of Gu, I have heard of it a long time ago. It is said that many people bet on him to be the top scholar in this year's examination, but there are more people who bet on him to be the third scholar." Lord Liu said.

"Ah? Why is he the third scholar? If he was only selected as the third scholar, my father would punish him." Gu Xin said in surprise.

"Your Highness, you don't know that the title of Tanhualang is something that most people can't even dream of. Sometimes, the ability of Tanhualang is not worse than that of the runner-up, but because of good looks, after confirming the champion, the emperor has always chosen the one with better looks to be the Tanhualang. They can all get into the first class, so they are not bad." Lord Liu explained to Gu Xin.

Gu Xin suddenly realized that when her father took the exam, Huo Junhao was indeed better looking than Qian Liangduo. Of course, it doesn't mean that Qian Liangduo is not good-looking, Qian Liangduo is also good-looking, otherwise Princess Jinghe would not have liked him. Qian Liangduo just looks a little honest, not as dazzling as Huo Junhao, not as attractive as him.

"Then my cousin will definitely be the top scholar. My father was also very handsome, but he was more knowledgeable than Brother Qian and Huo Junhao, so he could be the top scholar. My cousin is also the same, he must be more knowledgeable than the other two, I believe him. So, before the close of August, I will also bet on my brother to be the top scholar!" Gu Xin said very confidently.

Based on the way Gu Shouxin educated Gu En, if Gu En didn't become the top scholar, it would really be a waste of Gu Shouxin's teaching.

"That's natural, it was handed over by Lord Gu himself, and the fourth son of Gu must win in one fell swoop!" Lord Liu raised his glass and said sincerely.

Gu Xin clinked glasses with him.

Gu En was only a month younger than Gu Xin, and the two were of the same age, but Gu Xin really treated Gu En like a sister since childhood, as if Gu En was a few years younger than her, not like peers at all.

Now hearing Lord Liu say this, she was naturally very happy.

After drinking a glass, Gu Xin filled the glass again and clinked glasses with everyone.

Gu Xin enjoyed the dinner very much.

At the end, everyone was chatting together. Gu Xin was so talkative that the atmosphere was very harmonious.

It was almost midnight when Lord Liu and his wife, General Ying and their wives left.

Several Madam Ying also planned to go home and ask their family members if they wanted to go to Kunzhou with Madam Liu and her mother-in-law. The Ying family, like the Peng family, had many male children, so they could go to a more western place.

After seeing them off, Gu Xin went back to her room with Zheng Qiu.

Today is May 18th. The moon is still round and the sky is full of stars, which makes people feel happy.
