Chapter 446
Princess Li, who came back to her senses, suddenly became anxious, "I seem to have seen my niece Yingxue just now!"

She took her daughter by her side to raise her because of pity for her little sister. After so many years, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is her own. She originally planned to find a suitable opportunity to mention it to the prince and marry her directly as a daughter-in-law. , but the prince disagreed, saying that the emperor had sternly reminded all members of the royal family that close relatives who were related by blood were not allowed to marry.

So she could only reluctantly give up and treat Yuan Yingxue as her daughter. When she saw Yuan Yingxue just now, she didn't think much about it. The situation of the emperor bestowing marriage is quite different.

Mrs. Dingguo probably knew what Princess Li was worried about, and said soothingly: "Princess, don't worry, my children are here too! There are also relatives from the collateral line. In short, there are not six or seven girls from my family, but three or four. In fact, everyone knows the approximate level of these girls, and it will not have any influence."

Princess Li pulled out an ugly smile. She said Yuan Yingxue, but she was actually very relieved of her. After all, she brought it out by herself, so she couldn't be wrong. The one who was afraid was Shen Jinrou. , always likes to make some little tricks, thinking that no one will notice, she just doesn't bother to say some things, it doesn't mean she doesn't know, on such an occasion today, she doesn't believe that girl will pass by honestly.

If the flower viewing banquet was held by the Dingbeihou Mansion, Mrs. Nanyue would sell her some face in terms of her face, but if the emperor was involved, what face would she have? It's over.

The more he thought about the ceremony, the more flustered his heart became, and even his breathing became short of breath.

Tangning was the first to notice her strangeness, so she hurried forward to hold her hand, and asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Princess Li held her back tightly and asked, "Mrs. Nanyue, tell me honestly, who are the invigilators this time?"

Tang Ning said: "The emperor has arranged ten invigilators in each garden, and each invigilator has three to four people. I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, the people who came here are all young ladies. The emperor has a sense of propriety, and some things are wrong. It will happen."

Princess Li really wanted to ask why she said that, but when she met Tangning's clear eyes, she fell silent for a moment.

Mrs. Nanyue is a heroine after all. She has said so, so there is nothing to doubt.

Tangning appeased the ladies, and then told Ding Yi, "Order the back kitchen to bring some more good things. Everyone has come from afar today. We must let everyone have a good time."

At this time, many ladies also arrived at their examination room one after another.

When Shen Jinrou was in the carriage, she had secretly checked her sleeves, and when she was sure there was nothing wrong, she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking proudly that she would definitely stand out this time, and compare with those women in the Yuan family. They will know who is the most valuable.

The ambitious Shen Jinrou got off the carriage and was dumbfounded. Looking at the examination room prepared for them in front of her, she felt a mess in the wind.

"This is this," the first lady stammered.

The invigilating soldier introduced solemnly: "According to the requirements, the maids of the ladies can wait outside the garden. If necessary, there will be nuns to accompany them in and out."

What the man wanted to ask was why there were so many soldiers there, but seeing their unsmiling faces, he couldn't say anything, and then looked at the seats, there was at least three feet between each person, and there were soldiers in the middle to supervise, let alone cheating No, I can't even sneak peeks at the neighbors.

Only then did Shen Jinrou realize the seriousness, she clutched her cuffs tightly, gritted her teeth and found her seat. As soon as she sat down, she felt two compelling gazes behind her, how could she cheat!

Before the test papers were handed out, she looked around and found that everyone was drooping their heads. She finally felt a little better in her heart, thinking that the Dingbeihou Mansion had made up its mind not to let everyone fish in troubled waters. That being the case, we can only bite the bullet.

However, when the test papers came out, Shen Jinrou realized that her thinking was too naive. The first question was silently written, but "Women's Training" and "Women's Precepts" were not silently written, but a question for the candidates to answer. If you want to meet this question, the premise is that you have to understand the question first, and you will be able to catch a wave of people in seconds.

The second question is to write poems, which can be poems made by oneself or others, as long as they are suitable for the occasion, but the premise must be original, and it must be explained if it is not original.

The third question is about the views on the laws of Daqi, the fourth question is about the way of merchants, the fifth question is about the sea economy, the sixth question is the most true evaluation of oneself, and the seventh question is about Some symbols, ask the candidates what these symbols mean, the eighth question is the easiest, and ask the candidates their views on these topics.

Most people can still answer the first two questions, no matter whether they are right or not, at least they have written them all. From the third question onwards, everyone’s minds are empty, and only a few ladies can write something, so that by the last question Everyone started to complain crazily.

Some people came out within two quarters of an hour after the exam started, and some simply failed and slept in the exam room, waiting for the exam to end.

As soon as Shen Jinrou saw the title, she was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat. Even if she was killed, she would never have imagined that the Dingbei Hou Mansion would have such a perverted title. Take a look or two, but you have to have a chance to take a peek!

So she waited for the opportunity throughout the exam, and it was finally over. When the soldier was about to collect the papers, she took a peek, and suddenly heard a loud coughing sound from behind, which made her tremble, and hurriedly put away her sleeves Sitting upright, the next second, her desk was empty.

Shen Jinrou was so scared that her face turned pale, she was thinking about how to get through, but she didn't expect that no one came to trouble her until the soldiers left, so she breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and left in a hurry.

When we returned to the main garden, most of the people were there. There were many more tables in the garden, and there were a lot of exquisite food on them. Shen Jinrou didn't care about those, and kept searching among the crowd until he found the Yuan family sisters. In the past, breathlessly said: "Several cousins ​​are so fast!"

Yuan Lier laughed at herself: "Nothing will naturally be faster than my cousin."

Shen Jinrou's face froze. Thinking of what she had just been warned about cheating, she blushed, and she unexpectedly didn't talk back to Yuan Lier.

At this time, the waiter was serving the dishes, and Shen Jinrou asked Yuan Yingxue, "Where is the sixth cousin? Could it be that she hasn't come back yet? I remember that the Peony Garden is the closest garden to the main garden?"
