Chapter 63 Part 1: Good News

In Wang Xian Lou, Ye Shijie waited for the news together with a friend. Though he tried his utmost to control himself, his face still showed a trace of anxiety in the end. Looking at the noisy scene outside, he had no choice but to wait for the crowd to disperse before the person bringing the news came.

From inside the crowd of people surrounding the posted notice, a person bearing news took the lead and ran out. Right outside, he spoke to another person, it should be the results. The people near the windows in Wang Xian Lou immediately shouted and urged the person who had seen the results to quickly return.

On the wine table close to Ye Shijie, a person left first. Soon afterwards, he ran in from outside so anxiously that he nearly tumbled. He hardly ran inside before he was surrounded by the people. Everyone asked: “Who ah, who’s at the top of the list in this examination?”

“The Imperial College’s top of the list is Ye Shijie.” That person had barely stood firmly and he let out long breaths and said: “Second place is the eldest young master from the Right Minister residence, Li Jing. The third place is Ningyuan Marquis’s heir, Zhou Yan Bang!”

The crowd was immediately bustling with noise.

“Who is Ye Shijie? Never heard of this name before, is it a new student of the Imperial College?”

“Unexpectedly, this time the eldest young master of the Right Minister isn’t the best, really surprising.!

“I thought Ningyuan Marquis’s heir would place second this time, didn’t expect him to be in third place.”

“So in the end, who is Ye Shijie? Do you know this person?”

While the people around were discussing spiritedly, Ye Shijie’s friend was pressing Ye Shijie’s shoulders excitedly: “Shijie, did you hear? You are the first!”

“I heard.” Ye Shijie maintained his calm on the surface when in fact, his heart had long ago moved excitedly. Just like the people in the restaurants, in Yanjing city, even in the Imperial College, his name was unfamiliar. This time he brought the glorious Ye family’s intention, came to the Imperial College and at last, good things came to those who waited. The Imperial College’s first place, could be directly conferred a government official title. As long as there’s an official position, the Ye family was no longer a commoner. They would no longer be bullied without the ability to defend themselves. The Ye family would become more prosperous.

But, he was still concerned about another matter.

Someone asked from the side: “The rankings of the Imperial College are now known. How about Ming Yi Hall? Who is placed at the top of the list from Ming Yi Hall?”

The person in the middle of the crowd was stunned for a while and suddenly turned silent.

Being silent like this in the middle of the bustling noise of the restaurant really made the people flabbergasted. The crowd also gradually calmed down, the people looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what’s up with this person. Someone couldn’t help opening his mouth: “What’s the result actually? Quickly say it ah!”

That person hesitated for a moment before saying: “Ming Yi Hall’s rankings, the Jiang family’s fifth miss, Jiang Yu’e, is ranked third, Chengxuan envoy’s daughter, Meng Hong Jin, is ranked second.”

When he said “Meng Hong Jin is ranked second”, the crowd sighed. The bet between Jiang Li and Meng Hong Jin was known by everyone. Since Meng Hong Jin got the second place, Jiang Li’s wager where she wanted Meng Hong Jin to kneel down and apologize at the gate of the Imperial College was impossible. Then they only needed to see whether Jiang second miss would rank last. If she did, then she would be totally lost.

Ye Shijie secretly clenched his fists tightly. He didn’t know why but he was actually worried about Jiang Li’s fate.

“The top of the list is.......” The person who was listing the rankings suddenly paused for a moment. Under the pressure of the many eyes, he finally spoke the final name.

“Chief Assistant’s daughter Jiang second miss, Jiang Li.”

Jiang Li!

Ye Shijie’s friend was so shocked he almost overturned his glass. He picked his ears, “Did I mishear, Shijie? He said Jiang Li is at the top of the list?!”

Ye Shijie also suspected that there’s a problem with his ears, or possibly he was in a dream.

As soon as the man finished speaking, the crowd was suddenly aroused. They rained curses: “Is there something wrong with your eyes or are you blind? Maybe you are illiterate, that’s how you speak of such delusion?”

That person argued justly. With a red face he bellowed, “I didn’t speak nonsense, Jiang second miss is at the top of the list!”
