Ye Zhen and Chen Jinru became doctors. The happiest one was Sun Wen.
"Oh, you two are going to the palace in the future. What should I do?" Sun Wen cried. After a moment of happiness, she remembered that she would lose two companions in the future.
Chen Jinru smiled and said, "We are not in the palace every day. We still have to go to the medical center."
"It's not the same. We can't see each other every day." Sun Wen stamped her feet. "If I had known, I would have taken the exam too. What if I passed?"
Ye Zhen looked at her with a smile. "Then you will take the exam next year. Don't you want to be a doctor?"
Sun Wen sighed and said, "I don't know if I can pass the exam. I don't have your talent. However, it doesn't matter if I can't pass the exam. I will go to the border to be a military doctor."
Chen Jinru looked at Ye Zhen and whispered, "Princess, do you know when we will enter the palace?"
Ye Zhen said, "You'd better call me Yao Yao. I'm not used to calling you princess. We won't enter the palace for more than half a month. Anyway, time will pass quickly."
Although they passed the exam, they could not enter the palace just like that. Their names had to be submitted, and their life experiences were investigated one by one. Only those with a clean family could be allowed to enter the palace.
This way, it would take half a month.
Ye Zhen did not return to the Lu family. Anyway, the news of her passing the exam was no surprise to anyone in the Lu family. In the eyes of the Lu family and many people, she was already a princess. Even if she passed the exam, it was just icing on the cake. There was no need to be happy at all.
A few days later, it happened to be the school holiday. Before Ye Zhen returned to the Lu family, she was sent to the palace by Mo Rongyi. It turned out that there was a polo match tomorrow. Mo Rongyi wanted her to watch the game.
The match was held in front of the Da Ming Hall in the palace. The Emperor and Empress Dowager were the referees. The other three sides of the court were protected by low walls. The length of the walls was about one thousand meters. The surface of the walls was pressed very flat. It was as flat as a whetstone and as smooth as a mirror. There were two ways to play polo: single and double goals. Mo Rongyi and his team played with double goals. Because the goal was very small, hitting the ball required superb skills.
Ye Rou followed the Empress Dowager to the Great Bright Palace Hall. On the top step, two seats had already been prepared for Mo Rongzhan and the Empress Dowager. There were many members of the imperial clan on both sides. It seemed that many people were paying attention to today's match. The match between Mo Rongyi and Prince Shun was not only related to their face, but also related to the new forces that Mo Rongyi represented. The imperial clan and the old aristocratic families were certainly unwilling to see Mo Rongyi grow because Mo Rongyi's growth represented Mo Rongzhan's strength.
Mo Rongzhan hadn't seen Ye Zhen for several days. Looking back, he saw her standing beside the Empress Dowager. His eyes unconsciously fell on her jade-like face. "Yao Yao, I heard that you passed the exam?"
"Brother, I was lucky enough to be admitted." Ye Zhen replied politely and respectfully.
He didn't like her tone at all! Mo Rongzhan frowned at her and ordered the Empress Dowager, "Prepare a stool for the princess."
"Brother, I'll stand beside the Empress Dowager." Ye Zhen declined, not appreciating Mo Rongzhan's kindness.
"The sun is strong. Aren't you tired standing?" Mo Rongzhan knew that she was still angry and his voice became softer.
The Empress Dowager also said to Ye Zhen, "Yao Yao, listen to your brother."
Ye Zhen had to sit down and let someone put the stool beside the Empress Dowager, far away from Mo Rongzhan.
The match between Mo Rongyi and Prince Shun had also begun. Prince Shun was ranked eighth and was 17 years old this year. He took four other people to compete with Mo Rongyi. Although Mo Rongyi was relatively young, his companions were already fourteen or fifteen years old and were not too weak against Prince Shun.
Both sides had already arrived at the field, each holding a wooden staff several feet long in their hands. Their eyes were bright and ready for battle. The horse under his crotch snorted, unable to contain its excitement as it enjoyed the blissful time before charging and breaking through the enemy lines. They would decide the outcome of the match by how many balls they hit into the goal.
A long neigh cut through the sky, followed by shouts and the clatter of hooves. Mo Rongyi's staff and Prince Shun's strike collided, and the two sides quickly became entangled in a fierce battle. People were shouting and horses neighing, and dust was flying everywhere.
Ye Zhen looked at the young man galloping on the field and felt some emotion in her heart. Compared to when she rescued him from the trap, Mo Rongyi had obviously grown a lot taller.
"I didn't expect Yi to play polo so well." The Empress Dowager said to Mo Rongzhan with a smile.
Mo Rongzhan nodded and involuntarily glanced at Ye Zhen. "It's all Yao Yao's credit."
When Ye Zhen heard this, she smiled and said, "That's all Yi's own efforts."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Mo Rongyi swept by Prince Shun's staff and hit him on the shoulder.
Mo Rongyi almost fell off his horse.
Ye Zhen stood up abruptly and looked at Mo Rongyi nervously, for fear that he would fall.
Prince Shun had put away his long staff and hurriedly dismounted to apologize to Mo Rongyi. He seemed to have made an unintentional mistake.
Mo Rongyi was hit in the right hand. Although he did not fall off the horse, he could not lift his hand and could not continue to play.
"Did Prince Shun do it on purpose?" Ye Zhen asked angrily.
Mo Rongzhan and the Empress Dowager's faces were a little gloomy. They could not see that Prince Shun did it on purpose, but how could there be so many coincidences?
"I …" Ye Zhen saw that none of them spoke, so she ran down the stone steps and went in the direction of Mo Rongyi.
The game was temporarily suspended, and Mo Rongyi was sent down to heal.
"Yi, are you all right?" Ye Zhen pushed away the people around Mo Rongyi and saw his white shoulder covered in bruises. Anger brewed in her eyes.
Mo Rongyi's lips were still tightly pursed, but when he saw Ye Zhen, he couldn't help it. His eyes turned red. "Yao Yao, you can't lose to Prince Shun!"
"Does your shoulder hurt?" Ye Zhen asked softly.
"It hurts." The teenager no longer stubbornly refused to speak, but looked at Ye Zhen with great grievance.
Ye Zhen touched his head. "Change to the substitute. You won't lose. Go rest."
Mo Rongyi nodded. He had habitually believed Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen glanced at the other four teenagers. "You go back to the stadium. I'll be right back."
The Empress Dowager looked at them from afar and turned to ask Mo Rongzhan, "Your Majesty, where is Yao Yao going?"
"I don't know." Mo Rongzhan narrowed his eyes slightly and watched the delicate voice disappear from his sight. He turned to Fu De and said, "Let the little prince come back to heal."
In the distance, Prince Shun's face was full of guilt, but there was a smile in his eyes. He was talking to the old prince of the Mo family. In the eyes of many members of the royal family, Mo Rongzhan was not the legitimate emperor. They obeyed on the surface, but they were not convinced in their bones.
If they couldn't retaliate against Mo Rongzhan, they would deal with Mo Rongyi. This was their despicable and shameless idea.
