Chapter 267: The Examinee
Regarding the imperial examination, Liu Huaiyuan, as one of the examinees involved, was still a bit nervous. After all, the imperial examination was a major event in one’s life. Which scholar reaching this stage wouldn’t have a heart dreaming of passing the exam with high honors? Moreover, he now belonged to Ninth Highness.
When Liu Huaiyuan saw Wei Yu appear at the dormitory doorway, he was surprised.
“Your Highness? Your Highness, you’ve returned! This commoner didn’t even know Your Highness had come back to the capital. I beg Your Highness to forgive me.”
Seeing Liu Huaiyuan put down his brush and come forward to salute, Wei Yu smiled and stopped his movement. “Brother Yuanhua, you are too polite. I only returned to the capital yesterday. Even my elder brother doesn’t know, so why should you take it amiss? The imperial examination is imminent; Brother Yuanhua is now even more precious than gold. I haven’t come here to make you anxious.”
Liu Huaiyuan smiled upon hearing this. “It is Yuanhua who is old-fashioned. Your Highness specially came to look in on me; it is indeed an honor for me.”
Wei Yu waved his hand and walked over to look at Liu Huaiyuan’s desk.
The desk was full of things—either books or papers filled with writing. Wei Yu glanced briefly and felt as if he had returned to high school to take the college entrance exam. Terrifying.
Turning around, Wei Yu smiled and said, “I came to comfort Brother Yuanhua and advise you not to be nervous. But seeing you so diligent now, I feel like talking more is just wasting your time.”
