Ye Zhen entered the gate of the Medical Hall and first went to the designated place to take a palm-sized sign with the words' Etiquette, Music, Archery, Imperial Script 'written on it. Below each word was a square for the interviewer to write a score.
At least three of the six subjects must be A or above in order to be admitted.
Wherever Ye Zhen went, she attracted a lot of attention, even more exaggerated than when she was young. But thinking about it, Ye Zhen was only twelve years old when she entered the Women's College. Her body had not grown up in all aspects. How could she be like now? Her jade-like and graceful appearance amazed everyone's eyes?
Many people inquired about her family background and learned that she was the object of Princess Liu Hua's recent bet. They looked at Ye Zhen with more contempt.
In fact, there were not many people who could recognize that Ye Zhen resembled Princess Qin. After she married Mo Rongzhan and returned to college, the teachers of the college taught her alone. She had few classmates. Xu Huiru recognized her because they had been together for a while. Later, Xu Huiru didn't like being overshadowed by Ye Zhen, so she stopped seeing her.
Ye Zhen's first test was etiquette.
When Ye Zhen came to a hall, there were already a dozen girls about her age waiting. When those people saw her, their eyes flashed with surprise.
She walked to the last seat and waited. After the exam, she decided to take the driving and archery exams first. She wanted to take the two subjects that she was most confident in.
"What's your name?" A girl standing next to Ye Zhen asked in a low voice. "You look so beautiful."
Ye Zhen looked down at the girl. The other party was a little chubby with a round face. She looked a little cute.
"My name is Lu Yaoyao. What about you?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, just like other girls, with innocent curiosity on her face.
"My name is Sun Wen." Sun Wen whispered, "Just now, five people have passed the exam, but they all left crying."
Ye Zhen listened to Sun Wen's nervous and frightened tone and smiled to appease her. "Don't be nervous, there are others."
Sun Wen nodded vigorously. "I'm best at arithmetic. I'm not good at anything else. What about you?"
"I'm not very good at anything." Ye Zhen said.
"Don't be afraid!" Sun Wen held Ye Zhen's hand. "You are so beautiful, you will definitely pass."
Ye Rou laughed. What did being good-looking have to do with passing the exam?
Sun Wen covered her mouth and laughed, "I'm naturally fond of good-looking people. If I were a teacher, I would definitely give you an A."
What a straightforward girl! Ye Zhen smiled and nodded, "Thank you very much."
The people in front heard their conversation and turned around to glare at them. "Ugly people always cause trouble."
Sun Wen's cheeks turned red as she glared at the person in front of her. "What does it have to do with you?"
Ye Zhen patted her gently on the shoulder. "It's almost our turn. Don't bother with her."
If he quarreled with people here, he could forget about passing the etiquette test.
"En!" Sun Wen nodded. She also knew that it was not suitable to quarrel here.
Soon, it was their turn. The woman standing in front of Sun Wen entered the hall. Not long after, she walked out with a smile.
It seemed that he had gotten a pretty good result.
Sun Wen turned to Ye Zhen and said, "I'll wait for you outside for a while. Let's go take another exam together."
Ye Zhen nodded.
Sun Wen's etiquette test was not very good. She only got a C, but there was no unhappy look on her face. She just winked at Ye Zhen and went outside to wait for her.
Ye Zhen took a deep breath and lifted her feet to walk in.
There were three teachers in the hall. When Ye Zhen walked in, they all looked at her in surprise.
Ye Zhen had never seen these three teachers before, probably because they belonged to different schools. She bowed her head and knelt down, giving them a student's salute.
The main test of this subject was etiquette. Don't look back when you walk, don't lift your lips when you speak, don't move your knees when you stand, and don't shake your skirt when you stand.
These were not problems for Ye Zhen. She was originally from an aristocratic family, and her every move could be a model.
However, she couldn't do too well, which was not in line with Lu Yaoyao's image.
She purposely made a few mistakes, and in the end, she got a B, which was not bad.
When Ye Zhen came out, she saw Sun Wen waiting for her outside.
"Yaoyao, which subject are you going to take next?" Sun Wen saw Ye Zhen smiling and immediately came over to ask.
"I want to take the equestrian archery exam first." Ye Zhen said.
Sun Wen looked at Ye Zhen's delicate appearance and thought that she was not good at these two subjects, so she said, "Don't be afraid when you ride a horse. The more you are afraid of it, the more disobedient it will be."
Ye Zhen smiled and nodded. "Thank you for reminding me. Are you good at riding?"
"I used to live in the border. I grew up on horseback. Riding is nothing to me." Sun Wen said with a smile.
As the two talked, they came to the horse field. Ye Zhen was surprised to find that the people here were not good. Even Princess Liu Hua and Xu Huiru were here.
"Over there is the hunting ground. I heard that Marquis Jingning accompanied the little prince to hunt today, so all those people came here." Sun Wen pointed to the other side of the horse field, which was a little far away and could not be seen very clearly, but she could still vaguely see the figures of the guards.
As for Marquis Jingning, she really didn't see him. Ye Zhen had no interest in seeing Tang Zhen.
Princess Liu Hua had already spotted Ye Zhen. She came over and asked sarcastically, "Lu Yaoyao, how many A's did you get?"
Ye Zhen replied honestly, "No, but there will be soon."
"With you?" Princess Liu Hua sneered. "Then we will wait and see!"
"Good!" Ye Zhen smiled and handed the card in her hand to the invigilator of the horse field.
"Go pick a horse." As a result, the invigilator did not look up at Ye Zhen's card and let her pick a horse directly.
Ye Zhen recognized the invigilator who had taught her horsemanship before. However, she didn't say anything, just silently took the whip and went to pick a white horse.
Under Princess Liu Hua's and Xu Huiru's inquiring eyes, Ye Zhen neatly turned over and rode the horse to test the feel of it.
The content of the test was very simple. First, she had to run a lap and then cross five obstacle fences.
This was not a problem for Ye Zhen at all.
She rode the horse slowly, faster and faster. The sun shone on her, setting off her jade-like skin, making people feel that she was dazzling.
The invigilator holding Ye Zhen's card squinted at her and squeezed the card tightly.
Ye Zhen had finished a lap quickly. She let go of one hand, stood up slightly, and drove the horse over the first fence.
"Yanzhi, is that Yao Yao?" In the hunting ground in the distance, Tang Zhen looked at the horse field with burning eyes.
Lu Lingzhi glanced at him. "I can't see clearly."
"I know the woman riding the horse. She was the one who saved me last time." Mo Rongyi, riding on the horse, shouted, "It turns out that she is also in the college today. Let's go."
The beauty is like a startled swallow treading on a flying dragon.
This was the only thought in Tang Zhen's mind at this time.
