Wu Zing grinned and handed over his paper with both hands.
“Wait quietly for the results and don’t make any noise.”
The Female Official received the paper and softly instructed before turning around to leave.
“Can we sleep if we can’t talk? This is so boring!”
Wu Zing grumbled to himself, rubbing his eyes and yawning.
“No, you can’t sleep either!”
The female official’s ears were very sharp and she heard his mutterings. She spun around and glared at him.
“Ah.”
Wu Zing’s hand that was rubbing his eyes stopped. He puckered his lips and lowered his head, pretending to be grievous.
The female official’s gaze flickered but she didn’t bother about his antics anymore. She carried the test paper and placed it on the table in front of Ji Liuyun.
Ji Liuyun picked up the paper and scanned through it quickly, pondering for a mont before comnting with a pen and passing it to Lin Jinyun.
Lin Jinyun glanced over the paper and quickly wrote down his own opinions beneath Ji Liuyun’s comnts.
The examining female official approached, peeked at the comnts, then carefully placed the test paper in front of the Empress.
The text was eloquent, with smooth writing and clear thought. It was a good article that contained unique youthful vigor and suggested solutions to water problems.
Lin Qingluo picked up the paper and smiled when she saw Ji Liuyun’s comnts.
Empty rhetoric, room for improvent.
Her gaze naturally fell to Lin Jinyun’s opinion, a hint of amusent flashing across her eyes.

When soone handed in their test, the remaining candidates beca nervous and speeded up their writing.
One after another, they put down their brushes, hoping to impress the main examiner and the Empress by handing in their answers before others.
The female official moved gracefully among them, quietly collecting the papers and placing them on Ji Liuyun’s table.
Ji Liuyun had outstanding talent in writing and could quickly identify the inconsistencies in the article, accurately annotating his comnts.
Lin Jinyun reviewed and selected the more outstanding articles, passing them to his sister for their review.
Lin Qingluo flipped through the papers one by one, placing the ones she admired on the right side of her desk and the less likable ones on the left.
The Hall of Peaceful Harmony was silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Those who had handed in their papers peeked at her movents, too nervous even to breathe.

The essay was simple and unadorned, yet insightful and practical, revealing a promising talent for water conservancy projects and construction supervision.
Su Zixuan’s paper was handed in.
Lin Qingluo glanced at Ji Liuyun’s comnts, her eyes flashing, and a charming curve ford at the corner of her lips.
Woniu Village was close to the Weishui River and suffered from water problems almost every year.
Su Zixuan had vivid mories of the floods he had experienced as a child and deeply analyzed the prevention of such disasters, as well as how to minimize the damage when they occurred.
This article may be submitted to the Ministry of Public Works for review, and a detailed ergency response plan for water disasters can be developed based on this. It should then be announced to all states and counties for implentation.
Lin Jinyun was also full of praise for Su Zixuan’s paper and didn’t hesitate to give it his full endorsent, despite Su Zixuan’s identity.
After contemplating for a mont, Lin Qingluo picked up her brush, dipped it in red ink, and drew a circle on Su Zixuan’s test paper.
“Phew.”
A soft sigh could be heard below the hall. The candidates’ hearts raced as they wondered who among them had been chosen as the Empress’ lucky appointee.

Another paper was handed in. Ji Liuyun skimd through it and beca slightly emotional. He wrote his comnts and passed the paper to Lin Jinyun.
Lin Jinyun reviewed it, then directly carried the paper to his sister and whispered, “This candidate is quite good. The article has a clear train of thought and logical analysis. Clearly, they co from a family of water engineers and are adept at designing bridges – exactly the talent we urgently need.”
