Xiao Hanzheng had actually thought about it on the way back.

He replied, "There wasn't an enke like this time."

Then, he changed the topic. "But in the autumn examinations at the end of the year, the top scorer's surname was Zhuo. It was most likely her."

In his previous life, he had not participated in the upcoming imperial examination.

However, when he became an official later on, he had flipped through the examination papers for the past ten years, so he had some impression of the last name of the top scorer in each year.

Shi Qingluo thought for a moment and asked, "She did not become an official in the capital?"

Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. "No, she was most likely transferred out."

He thought carefully again and suddenly thought of something. "Oh right, later on, the prefect of the northern border was surnamed Zhuo. I wonder if it was her."

Although he had participated in the military in the northern border, he had quickly gone to the capital, so he had never seen the prefect of the northern border in person.

However, he had heard of Governor Zhuo.

This governor had a good reputation in the northern border.

Shi Qingluo touched her chin. "Was King Jin still around when she was a governor?"

Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. "King Jin had already been executed at that time. Governor Zhuo was promoted later."

Shi Qingluo said, "I have a feeling that her identity is not that simple.

"Oh right, could she be a spy of the Ge Kingdom or something?

"Or maybe she was left behind by the previous dynasty?"

In the past, when one read novels or television dramas, wouldn't those who dressed up as a man in ancient times have a tragic background?

Not to mention, it was very possible that she was from the royal family of the previous dynasty.

For a woman to dress up as a man, wasn't that just to hide her identity?

Then, she would come to participate in the imperial examinations, and she would be able to achieve her goals.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to live as a normal person quietly?

Why did she have to take the risk to come to the imperial examinations?

After hearing what his little wife said, Xiao Hanzheng couldn't help but have doubts.

He nodded. "It's not impossible. Although my investigation is negative, it might not be fine."

Sometimes, the information he sourced might have been set up by someone else.

After all, his manpower in the northern border was limited.

Shi Qingluo thought for a moment and suggested, "Old Xiao, I think you should tell the emperor about this.

"Your manpower is limited. Why don't you leave it to the emperor to investigate?

"Right now, Daliang is already plagued by internal and external problems. If there's another spy or someone from the previous dynasty wreaking havoc, wouldn't that be even more troublesome?"
