"Daxin, then who is number one for the century since the founding of the country?" Cheng Nuo asked Meng Xin Zhi directly, to save Nie Guangyi the trouble of playing coy.
"Su Shi," Meng Xin Zhi answered, as straightforwardly as Cheng Nuo expected.
"Ah? It's Dongpo again..." Cheng Nuo expressed surprise, though not entirely surprised, "Ashi seems to have told me about this. I'm not that interested in history, so I forgot."
"Su Shi was banished to Huangzhou, and it was after he reclaimed a piece of wasteland east of the city that he got the title of Dongpo," Nie Guangyi spoke up to clarify.
"Oh, is that so?" Cheng Nuo asked non-specifically, "Then how well did Su Shi do in the exam?"
"Third class," Meng Xin Zhi and Nie Guangyi said in unison.
"The third class is the highest, right?" Cheng Nuo first asked Nie Guangyi because her boyfriend had sent her a special message, telling her that today's situation was unique and asked her to help take care of Guangyi's mood.
