Emperor Yan was still in a daze when Liu Wuji laughed out loud.
He stroked his white beard with a satisfied expression.
“Not bad, nor bad! That girl got full marks, right?” He asked the examiner.
The examiner smiled.
” The Preceptor predicted things like a god. He did score full marks.” He bowed to Liu Wuji.
As soon as he said that, there was another uproar.
What? The first woman to hand in her paper had gotten full marks?
She actually answered all the questions correctly?
Looking at the large number of blank spaces left on their test papers, many people sighed in their hearts.
Previously, they had looked down on the fact that she was a woman. They felt that the other party was overestimating himself by participating in the assessment.
Now it seemed like…
Emperor Yan was also shocked.
Then, he frowned and looked at Liu Wuji unhappily.
The suspicion in his heart was raised by several degrees.
Full marks? How was this possible?
He had specially set a time limit of 35 minutes for the assessment, not for people to be able to answer all the questions.
It was to allow the candidates to answer as many questions as possible in a limited amount of time.
However, the woman answered all of them correctly.
What did this mean?
Liu Wuji looked back at Emperor Yan with a smile.
He did not expect Emperor Yan to suspect him.
Seeing this, Emperor Yan could not directly go against his Imperial Preceptor and could only endure it.
After all, the examiner had already said that the woman had scored full marks. If he questioned her now, he would only be slapping the state preceptor in the face.
However, he could not just watch as the Imperial Tutor messed around.
Fortunately, there was still another assessment.
He would change the questions for the second round and not let that woman pass again.
Lin Xiaoyue was waiting outside.
They ate refreshments and drank fragrant tea in a very relaxed manner.
He had no idea what had happened in the imperial garden.
Finally, with the sound of the gong, the first round of the assessment ended.
The guards began to collect the papers.
Immediately, the candidates left the venue and waited outside.
The sixth princess and Liang Chengcai came out at about the same time.
When they came out, the two of them were still checking the answers to some questions.
After seeing Lin Xiaoyue, the two of them quickly walked towards her.
What answer was there to compare? Couldn’t she just ask Mr. or Mrs. Li directly?
She had scored full marks, so she was the most accurate person to ask.
Soon after, Lin Xiaoyue found out that she had scored full marks.
Facing the adoring gazes of the Sixth Princess and Liang Chengcai, as well as the seemingly invisible gazes from elsewhere, Lin Xiaoyue’s expression was calm.
Full marks, that was expected…
Soon, the Sixth Princess and Liang Chengcai asked Lin Xiaoyue about the answers to some of the questions.
Lin Xiaoyue couldn’t remember the question number.
However, after hearing the two of them describe the contents of rhe questions, she could also match them up.
Then, he told the two of them his answer.
When the two of them heard this, some laughed, while others were angry.
Soon, the two of them asked Lin Xiaoyue about some questions that they hadn’t solved.
Lin Xiaoyue also told the two of them her solution.
When the two of them heard this, they exclaimed in admiration, and their admiration for Lin Xiaoyue deepened.
At the same time, some of the candidates gradually came over to listen to Lin Xiaoyue’s explanation of the solution.
The more he listened, the more impressed he was!
As expected of the person recommended by the Imperial Preceptor’s Residence. The Imperial Preceptor’s eyes were like torches, and he was indeed discerning.
This woman should be number one!
After a while, while the candidates were anxiously waiting, the rankings were finally out.
As expected, Lin Xiaoyue occupied the first place.
The second place wasn’t the Sixth Princess or Liang Chengcai, but someone called Mo Fei.
The third place was Liang Chengcai.
The sixth princess was only ranked fifth.
When she saw the rankings, the sixth princess was so angry that she almost cried. She threw herself into Lin Xiaoyue’s arms.
She actually didn’t enter the top three!
Not only did he not enter, he only got sixth place.
She had been dealt a blow.
Lin Xiaoyue patted the sixth princess’s back in amusement.
“Alright, victory and defeat are common in military strategists. A loss was nothing. Wasn’t there still a second round of assessment? Just work hard to get it back.”
Hearing this, the sixth princess felt a little better.
“Yes! 1 will definitely work hard and strive to compete with Teacher against Envoy Chu Jin!” Wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes, the sixth princess said with a determined expression.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and nodded.
“Yes.”
Eunuch Dahu then appeared and asked the guards to escort those who failed out of the palace.
The twenty people on the rankings were invited to enter the examination hail again..
