Chapter 122 The Three-Day Imperial Examination



Xiao Zhixing smiled, "That's a lie. Ten years of hard study go unnoticed, but one day of success brings fame to the world. The truth is, it's really cold, and all I want right now is a bowl of hot soup."

Duke Li: "..."

Xiao Zhixing continued to smile, "The Duke and Lord Nian can go and take a nap. Lord Zhang and I will be keeping an eye on things. There are still two days left, so don't fall ill first."

Duke Li continued to squint, seemingly carefully observing her expression. "Then we'll have to trouble Your Highness. We're too old to handle this."

Xiao Zhixing watched him leave, almost bursting out laughing. He hadn't noticed before, but was this Duke Li nearsighted?

She was all too familiar with that squinting gesture.

It is commonly said that men and women cannot be distinguished from each other beyond five meters, and humans and animals cannot be distinguished from each other beyond ten meters.

Why not test how nearsighted he really is next time? She remembered that the Great Sheng Law stipulated that those with illnesses could not hold office.

Even if you can't control him, you can at least scare him.

It would be easy for her to make a pair of glasses in her lab; I wonder if he would be willing to buy them?

The examination hall was solemn and tense for three days. Xiao Zhixing did not dare to relax and had the 186 system scan him at all times. Fortunately, they found a fire, a person who had fainted, and a person who had gone mad.

She rushed over immediately to prevent the situation from escalating.

Especially that one who went crazy, he almost ruined the exam paper of the candidate next to him.

The unlucky guy who almost got dragged into this mess was Ji Bai.

Xiao Zhixing didn't know what to say. Was it because he was famous or good-looking that people would target him first?

These events made the atmosphere at the examination hall even more tense.

Some of the more sensitive candidates wrote while crying; the diverse reactions of each individual were truly heartbreaking.

Finally, the three-day spring imperial examination ended, and Xiao Zhixing was about to go crazy from holding back his excitement.

"Open the door!" As soon as the gong and drum sounded, everyone had to come out of the examination room. After the clerk had sealed the names of the candidates and collected the examination papers and assigned them numbers, both the candidates and the clerk signed and pressed their fingerprints on the inside of the name sheet. Only after confirming that everything was correct could the candidates leave.

The number, signature, and fingerprint on the inside are also very important. The candidates must remember them themselves to prevent the exam papers from being switched.

Xiao Zhixing stood on high ground, staring at the entire examination hall.

"ah!"

"Ahhh!"

Suddenly, a commotion broke out, and Xiao Zhixing rushed to the scene like lightning.

A scholar engulfed in flames charged madly toward a minor official who was carrying a large number of collected examination papers.

The minor official was terrified, and the candidates who hadn't left yet were so frightened that they forgot to move aside.

"court death!"
