Little Xinzhuo asked curiously.
"Ziyue, what does it an to have a controversy?"
Little Xinzhuo’s round little face was very cute, and Murong Ziyue couldn’t help but rub his head.
"The results of the written examination are divided into three grades: upper, middle, and lower. Although there are only three outcos, within the upper grade, there will be the first three ranks. It seems that the examiners are having trouble deciding the ranking for these top three."
Murong Ziyue was fourteen years old, just like Xin Lin, but she had a tall figure and a calm personality, appearing much more mature than her peers.
With more than ten thousand exam papers, even after eliminating forty percent, there are still over six thousand left. With one hundred examiners marking papers, it’s hard to reach a consensus, and selecting the top three is not easy.
After hearing this, Little Xinzhuo’s face showed a hint of worry.
He was worried about the competition between Sister and Jin Chen.
If she really lost, wouldn’t Sister beco that bad boy Jin Chen’s foot washing maid?
"You’re too reckless."
Ziyue looked at Xin Lin, who seed quite content.
She had previously had a good impression of Xin Lin, but seeing her act so recklessly now lessened her opinion of her.
"The results aren’t out yet, so who is being reckless is still unknown."
Xin Lin smiled, not worried.
"No need to wait for the outcos anymore; my answer paper has already been rated as upper-class. Now you just wait to beco my foot washing maid."
Jin Chen and his group walked over.
With him was Chu Miaoyun and several other sons and daughters of officials.
Jin Chen was the Grandmaster Jin’s son. Although the results of the written examination had not yet been announced, Grandmaster Jin had already received news that Jin Chen’s answer paper was not bad and had been graded.
Once the news was out, Jin Chen was overjoyed and imdiately ca over to embarrass and ridicule Xin Lin.
"Young Master Jin, you really don’t know how to be tender towards the fairer sex, do you? Although this young girl is small, she has delicate and tender skin. To have her carry washbasin water and do such rough work would be too much of a humiliation for her. How about I give you five silver taels to buy her from you, and she can serve by pouring tea and water?"
Chu Miaoyun said, covering her mouth with a laugh.
"Miao Yun, are you implying that this young girl is only worth five silver taels? Five silver taels can’t even buy a pig or a dog; isn’t she worse than them?"
Jin Chen and his group couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Xin Lin stood by, not getting angry but just smilingly looked at Jin Chen.
"What are you waiting for? Take her down, sign and seal the deal. I want her to wash my feet tonight!"
Jin Chen said hatefully, not knowing what was coming to him, thinking that with the support of the Imperial Guard Captain, he could offend him.
"Wait!"
Murong Ziyue frowned; this group of people was really going too far.
"Murong Ziyue, you don’t plan on interfering again, do you? Don’t think that just because you have so abilities that I’ll be scared of you. I’ll take care of this foot washing maid first and deal with you later!"
Jin Chen warned.
As the crowd was making a fuss, suddenly they heard Captain Yang co out.
"Silence, what’s all this commotion about? The results of the written examination have co out, everyone, quiet down."
Captain Yang, holding the results of the written examination, walked towards the crowd.
Everyone fell silent for a mont, all holding their breaths as they looked towards the list in Captain Yang’s hands.
Xin Lin glanced at Captain Yang, looking straight past him.
The results of the written examination were divided into three grades, and Captain Yang only announced the nas of those who were evaluated as "upper-class". The nas of the middle and lower-class candidates would be posted for public display.
On the list of "upper-class" nas, roughly two hundred nas were listed. Xin Lin’s eyes imdiately caught the last few nas at the bottom of the list, and upon seeing the outco, she was montarily stunned.
This result was sothing she had not expected.
