Chapter 243 Imperial Examination (4)

  Sima Lian drank his tea slowly, ignoring Master Ye's anxious expression, and ate a big yellow-orange pear on the table, his mouth was full of sweetness and juice.

  Master Ye's mouth twitched slightly, knowing that this old guy was deliberately teasing her, but she wasn't the kind of person who couldn't hold her breath.

   Staring fiercely at the big pear in Sima Lian's hand, seeing that she had finished eating one, she took another one to her mouth and bit down.

  Master Ye took a deep breath, angrily picked up a big pear, and bit down hard.

  Sima Lian glanced at her, puzzled and asked, "Why, this pear has enmity with you?"

  How could Mr. Ye not know that she did it on purpose, and made love to you? Hum, "No enmity!"

  Sima Lian finished eating another pear, and then slowly said, "Is this the fourth game..."

   As he spoke, he glanced lightly at Master Ye who was aside, seeing that she was interested, he shook the tea in the cup in front of him, and fell silent.

   Master Ye gritted his teeth, "What is the fourth game?"

  Sima Lian stretched out his hand and rubbed his shoulder, sighed, "Oh, I am old, why is my shoulder so sore?"

  Hearing this, Mrs. Ye is almost out of breath, this **** old thing, isn't the implication of this word just to ask her to rub her shoulders!

  Turning her head and snorting, she will know the title of the fourth scene sooner or later, so she won't give this old guy a shoulder rub!

  Sima Lian seemed to know the result would be like this, and he opened his mouth, as if muttering to himself, "Oh, the title of this fourth session is really unprecedented in the ages, it's really wonderful."

As she spoke, she glanced at Mrs. Ye and saw that she was looking at her curiously. There was a gleam in the depths of her old eyes, and she slowly said, "I'm afraid the first topic of the fourth session will make many people feel uncomfortable. Let's go back." He shook his head as he spoke, drawing out all Master Ye's curiosity.

   "Why do we look so small compared to the sky?" Sima Lian said slowly, looking at Master Ye with a smile.

  Master Ye was puzzled, "Is this the fourth test question?"

  Sima Lian shook his head, "No, no. This is just one of the questions in the fourth scientific examination."

  Master Ye was astonished, "Isn't it, the fourth exam question is so simple?"

  Sima Lian shook his head and said, "Easy? Then tell me your answer."

  Master Ye shook his folding fan and said with a smile, "Because we are human beings, and the sky is the existence that rules our life and death. Compared with the sky, we are naturally small."

  Sima Lian showed a smile on his face, "Do you know how I answered His Majesty asking me this question?"

  Hearing this, Master Ye blinked, "How did you answer?"

   "The answer is the same as yours." Speaking of this, Sima Lian sighed slightly, but her mind was rigid before.

  But Lord Ye didn't pay attention to her sigh, but said excitedly, "Haha, then my answer is right?"

  Sima Lian glanced at her and said, "Well, it's a big mistake."

   "Well, it's a big mistake." Hearing this, Master Ye echoed, and then realized, "No, it should be the right answer."

  Hearing this, Sima Lian sneered, "Right? It's not right at all!"

   Master Ye became interested, "Then what do you think is the answer?"

  Sima Lian's eyes were full of treacherous smiles, and he pointed to his shoulder, "Oh, I'm very tired now, what should I do if I don't want to talk? It would be great if someone could rub it for me."

  After the words fell, Lord Ye's face darkened. I just knew that this old thing didn't mean well, and patiently talked to her so much, but I didn't expect that I would still want to rub her shoulders, hum, it's a beautiful idea!

  Master Ye turned his head and ignored her.

   But after a while, Mr. Ye was full of this question, and kept thinking about what the answer was.

  After a stick of incense

   "Well, it's really comfortable, a little to the left, yes, go up a little bit."

   "You haven't eaten, your strength is so weak."

   "Come down a little bit, um, this is the position, so comfortable."

   "Hurry up! So slow, are you a snail or a tortoise?"

   "You did a good job, Xiaoye, you should give me more rubbing in the future."

  Sima Lian closed his eyes comfortably, took a deep breath, and felt lazy.

  Master Ye behind her had a bitter expression on her face. This old **** was even older than Prime Minister Meng. It seemed that they hadn't observed her carefully on weekdays.

   Staring fiercely at the back of Sima Lian's head, he quickly raised a hand and slapped the back of her head a few times.

  But he didn't want Sima Lian to turn around suddenly, and looked at Master Ye with a half-smile, pretending to be puzzled, "Xiao Ye, what are you doing?" He said and looked at her hand that was raised in mid-air.

  Master Ye withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and smiled, "A bug flew by just now, and I chased it away."

   "Oh." Sima Lian replied lightly, but his eyes were full of disbelief.

  Master Ye blushed slightly, suddenly remembered her intention of rubbing Sima Lian's shoulders, and quickly said, "I rubbed it for you too, should you tell me the answer?"

  Hearing this, Sima Lian hummed lightly, which relieved Mr. Ye.

   "The answer is...because...we're not as big as it is."

   Ga?

  Master Ye was stunned, digging his ears, he couldn't believe it, "Is this the answer?"

  Sima Lian nodded, "Otherwise, what do you think?"

  Master Ye choked, and thought about it carefully, it seems to be such a rationale.

   Simply sat down on the chair and asked, "Any more questions?"

  Sima Lian said, "Of course, there are twenty questions in total, and there is another question: there is a word that everyone will mispronounce when they see it. What is this word?"

  Hearing this, Lord Ye frowned, thinking hard.

  Watching Master Ye racking his brains, Sima Lian drank a cup of tea made from sweet-scented osmanthus, which was specially sent by His Majesty.

  The time for one cup of tea has passed, the time for two cups of tea has passed, Mr. Ye is still thinking about it, Sima Lian is watching with a smile on his side.

  Looking at the sky, Sima Lian reminded with a smile, "Xiao Ye, it's already past noon, if you can't figure it out, the scientific test is about to start."

  Hearing this, Master Ye waved his hand irritably, "Let me think again."

  Sima Lian stopped talking, sipped his tea slowly, and looked at the surrounding green trees and wild flowers everywhere.

   "Huh~" Master Ye was discouraged, looked at Sima Lian with a little resentment in his eyes, "What is the answer?"

  Sima Lian smiled, and said in a drawn out voice, "The answer is—wrong!"

   "Wrong?" Master Ye was taken aback, came back to his senses, and slapped himself **** the head. Such a simple answer, she didn't guess it, how stupid!

   "My lords, Your Majesty has arrived." A guard quickly came to the two of them and said in a low voice.
