The talk session has already begun.

On the flat grass in Zhiyi Academy, the students began to argue and argue with each other, and the momentum was quite loud.

Some people were arrogant, some argued hard, and some were speechless and walked away.

Everyone who wants to speak can speak freely in this chat room.

All ambitious people are also looking forward to tomorrow's test.

Yun Xihe gently squinted his eyes, looking past these impassioned students and courtiers little by little, as if he wanted to look at Haiyan Heqing in Dashun.

The next morning.

Aunt Gui, under the instruction of Empress Dowager Jiang, personally brought a princess dress to the reception hall.

The imperial crown placed on the tray has a base of green velvet, surrounded by a circle of east beads. The top is engraved with gold and entangled flowers as a phoenix, holding a ruby ​​in its mouth. The eaves of the crown are decorated with a bright yellow hanging sash. Underneath the imperial crown is

A luxurious light purple dress with gold embroidery on the cuffs and skirt.

Yun Xihe was a little surprised. Although the emperor had given her permission and allowed her to enjoy the special treatment of the eldest princess in the palace, it was only for the sake of diagnosing the Queen Mother's illness.

Furthermore, although she is still the future princess, but...

In short, given her status, she is far from worthy of these.

"Mommy, this is against the rules.

Aunt Gui just smiled and said, "Miss Yun, this is what the Queen Mother meant. The Queen Mother made it clear that a person depends on his clothes. You can use it for today's occasion."

Yun Xihe stretched out his hand to touch the cold yet noble pearl, lowered his eyes and smiled, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your foresight. My dearest thanks."

Luo Yi suppresses the villain, but words shock the gentleman.

The Queen Mother also knows that today's test is not an easy task.

When Yun Xihe, dressed in court attire, stood on the high platform, there was an instant excitement underneath.

"What? It is women who are responsible for setting up examinations today? When will it be women's turn to take the lead in the affairs of scholars? Isn't it because the rooster lays eggs and the hen crows?"

"Who is she? Why should she stand above scholars!"

"...She is wearing a princess's court dress. Even if she does have some status, she is not qualified to be responsible for this decision that determines the fate of scholars!"

"Princess?? It's better to be polite..."

The noise became quieter, but discordant voices still sounded from time to time, "So what, princess, get out!!"

In the midst of the discussion, Qin Xuanling, who had arrived late, flashed in black, slowly climbed onto the high platform, raised his hand and saw that the sharp demeanor around him was released, and the noise gradually subsided.

Yun Xihe smelled the familiar ambergris, turned slightly sideways, nodded towards him, and then took advantage of the silence to look down at the people in the audience, with bright phoenix eyes, and said loudly, "I am Yun Xihe."

Under the bright sky, she stood up straight, her face was dignified and bright, and her expression was slightly modest, "What do you have to disagree with?"

Compared with the excited scholars under the high platform, her overall demeanor is more like that of a gentleman and upright scholar.

Scholars feel dwarfed by those who are more like gentlemen than themselves.

"Yun Xihe? General Yun Lie's daughter?"

Everyone in the audience looked at me and I looked at you. Finally, a young and energetic young man stood up.

His expression was calm and his voice was solemn, "Why are you in charge of this examination? What is your talent and knowledge that can convince the public?"

Yun Xihe nodded, "I also grew up reading books about saints and sages. If I hadn't been a girl, I would have gotten the top prize." His tone was very regretful, but also very arrogant and confident.

The woman's smile was bright and generous, and the young man stared blankly for a while, until he felt an increasingly cold gaze on his head, and he finally came back to his senses.

The young man snorted coldly, "You don't have to act coquettishly, you know what we are talking about!"

He raised his hand in front of his eyebrows to shield himself from the bright sun, "Yun Xihe, you are just relying on your status to stand there gloriously! Don't you know that princes, generals, and prime ministers would rather be rich?!"

Only the scholars could understand the meanness of the scholars, but many people who were watching the excitement did not understand, so they whispered to each other and asked.

"That is to say, she said that she relies on her father to get the limelight! Without her father, she is nothing!"

For a moment, the audience's eyes were all focused on Yun Xihe, just waiting for her to respond.

Yun Xihe's voice suddenly rose, and he was very puzzled: "My Yun family has been loyal to the emperor and patriotic for generations. My father and brother fought hard on the battlefield just to let the people of Dashun live and work in peace and contentment. Why can't I be glamorous?"

She first said that she watched the young man answer his question, then looked at the dark crowd under the stage, and said calmly, "Today is a test. You asked me what qualifications I have, and I have already answered. And there are also

If you have any problems with me, don't try to get into trouble with the Yun family."

The young man didn't get the reaction he wanted, so he couldn't help snorting coldly, and pressed forward step by step, "Since you claim to be the number one scholar, do you dare to let everyone present evaluate you?"

"Do you have real talent and knowledge, and can you convince the public with your virtue? Just in front of the public, let everyone see clearly, are you, a woman, qualified to judge the scholars of Dashun?!"

In public, setting questions, writing essays, and judging.

Even the seven-step poem written by Cao Zhi in ancient times is not as good as the current group of scholars who make things difficult for others...

Yun Xihe's gaze swept across the audience, and the passionate faces made people feel a little dazed.

She raised her hand slightly, and the crowd's noisy voices gradually became quieter, and all eyes focused on her more anxiously.

"Okay~" There was a touch of joy in her cold voice, which was like the tips of her hair being blown by the breeze.

Qin Xuanling on the side couldn't help but move his lips, "Are you... sure?"

This is a composition in public!

He knew that she had outstanding talents, and he had also heard that at the last spring flower banquet, she composed a poem in public, which amazed a group of men and women from aristocratic families at the table.

This composition may not be as difficult as poetry, but in front of this group of mean scholars, if she can't write the best article, won't she lose her face and be ridiculed by the world?!

But now that these words have been spoken from her mouth, how can she take them back?

"Hush! Be quiet!" The young man looked up at the high platform with undisguised sarcasm in his expression, "We will wait and see!"

The bustling crowd under the high platform became quieter and quieter. Many scholars took out pens, inks, paper and inkstones from the boxes they carried, "Since there is an exam, I will also write an essay to compare with her!"

"This question is based on the Four Books and Five Classics: The way to a university is to be clear and virtuous, to be close to the people, and to strive for perfection. The person who asked the question is Suzhou Yang Zhe."

What this sentence emphasizes is to promote virtue, enable the people to rehabilitate themselves, and achieve the ultimate goal of educating the world.

As soon as the person who asked the question finished speaking, there was a sound of gasping in thought all around.

This question is relatively simple and anyone present can answer it, but if you want to answer it well, it is not easy.

Someone beside Yun Xihe had already brought up a table with pen, ink, paper and inkstone. She thought for a moment, picked up the pen and started writing. Not far away, Qin Xuanling could see her profile and slightly raised lips.

He lowered his eyes seriously, raised his eyebrows, and quickly put down his pen and stood up straight without even thinking.

"Finished."
Chapter completed!
