After listening to her explanation, Shen Yao quietly curled his lips. “Zhaozhao’s arrangements are excellent.”
“Aren’t I the best?” Ji Zhao couldn’t help but approach him. She placed her arms on his shoulders affectionately and raised her eyebrows smugly.
“Yes.” Shen Yao tapped the tip of her nose dotingly. “My Zhaozhao is peerless. ‘
Ji Zhao grinned, and the smile in her eyes deepened.
“I heard from Innkeeper Qian that the Shao Family’s wontons are very delicious. Try them while they’re hot.”
“Okay!’
Ji Zhao couldn’t wait to taste it. ‘The skin is thin and there’s a lot of meat. Moreover, the ingredients are quite exquisite. If I’m not wrong, the filling used the most tender tenderloin from a pig and has been tenderized several times.”
“And the shrimp wrapped within the meat filling are also exceptionally delicious.” Ji Zhao praised the bowl of wontons. “Shen Yao, the chef who made the wontons can be said to have put in a lot of effort.”
“Innkeeper Qian said that Shao Family Wontons is very famous. Moreover, they only sell a limited number of 100 servings of wontons a day. They don’t accept reservations. First come, first served. I was luckier today and bought the last three bowls.” Shen Yao smiled and said softly, “But I still think Zhaozhao’s wontons are more delicious. ‘
‘What a glib tongue!” Ji Zhao scooped up a small wonton and handed it to his lips with a smile. “But I like it very much!”
The next day was the day of the provincial imperial examination.
“Does it look good?” Ji Zhao, who was wearing a red qipao, came in front of
Shen Yao and twirled elegantly. “A qipao means victory!”
“Zhaozhao’s beauty is comparable to the bright moon.”
The examination venue was located in the southernmost part ofYunchuan Prefecture. The environment was very quiet and the security was very tight.
At dawn, Ji Zhao accompanied Shen Yao to the entrance of the examination venue. At that moment, the entrance of the examination venue was already filled with people.
“I didn’t expect there to be so many people participating in the provincial imperial examination!” Ji Zhao couldn’t help but sigh. ‘This feels like a thousand troops crossing a wooden bridge!’
“Yes.” Shen Yao smiled faintly.
The provincial imperial examination was held once every three years. Once they passed the examination, their meteoric rise would be just around the corner.
In the eyes of most people, only scholars were considered outstanding.
The exam was divided into three rounds, and the first round was on August 9th.
“Zhaozhao, after I enter the examination hall, go back to the inn and rest. ‘
Shen Yao scratched her palm and persuaded her in a low voice, “The examination won’t end until dusk!”
“Alright,” Ji Zhao replied obediently. “By the way, I made you a thousand-layer pastry. The water bag is also filled with mung bean soup. Don’t eat anything else!”
“Okay!’
At the beginning of the morning, the door of the examination venue was slowly pulled open.
The students who were preparing for the exam lined up in an orderly manner and waited to enter the venue.
After Shen Yao entered the venue, Ji Zhao reluctantly retracted her gaze. She prayed silently in her heart that the events in her nightmare would not happen.
“Madam, your jade pendant fell!”
Just as Ji Zhao was in a daze, a delicate voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
Lu Hongshan walked in front of her and opened her palm. “Madam, take a look and see if this is your jade pendant.”
Ji Zhao looked at it and shook her head with a smile. “Thank you, Miss, but this isn’t my jade pendant. ‘
“Ah?” Lu Hongshan pretended to be surprised and asked, “Was I seeing things?’
“Did you pick up this jade pendant?” Ji Zhao looked at the confusion on her face and suggested with a smile, “If you don’t know who the owner is, why don’t you hand the jade pendant to the officials?’
“That’s a good idea!” Lu Hongshan deliberately revealed a relaxed smile.
“Thank you for your advice, Madam.”
‘You’re too kind, Miss.”
Ji Zhao smiled nonchalantly and walked past her towards the inn.
The smell of cosmetics on the girl just now was really too strong. After Ji Zhao took two steps away, she couldn’t help but sneeze a few times.
After returning to the inn, Ji Zhao felt her nose itch more and more.
Hearing her sneeze non-stop, Immortal Crane frowned silently. “Come over and let me take a look.”
“Master, did I catch a cold?” Ji Zhao was also in a daze. After a while, she actually felt a little itchy. On closer look, she realized that there were many red bumps on her arms.
Immortal Crane, who was taking her pulse, looked even more serious. ‘You’ve been poisoned. Fragrant Beauty.”
“Poisoned?” Ji Zhao’s eyes widened. “How did I get poisoned?”
“The Fragrant Beauty is a slow-acting poison. Once it is inhaled into the body, one will feel itchy all over within six hours. After three days, one will definitely die.” The Immortal Crane hurriedly opened the needle bag and quickly inserted needles into several acupuncture points on Ji Zhao’s wrist.
Half an hour later, Ji Zhao saw that the red bumps on her arm were disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Fortunately, it was discovered early. Otherwise, not even the gods could save you!” The Immortal Crane looked at her, angry and heartbroken. “Stupid disciple, you didn’t even know that you were poisoned!”
Ji Zhao thought about it seriously and finally thought of the girl who had picked up the jade pendant.
She remembered that at that time, she had smelled a thick scent of cosmetics from that girl. But why did that girl want to harm her?
They did not know each other!
“Shen Yao.” Ji Zhao stood up anxiously. “Is the other party here for Shen Yao?”
Shen Yao would definitely be worried if she was poisoned.
Once Shen Yao was distracted, how could he achieve good results in the provincial imperial examination?
“I told you long ago that Shen Yao’s fate is exceptionally dangerous. If you stay by his side, you will often encounter such dangers.” Immortal Crane looked at her with a complicated gaze. “Stupid disciple, it’s not too late to leave now.” “Master, can you teach me how to identify poison?” Ji Zhao pretended not to understand what he meant and begged seriously, “Medicine and poison are inseparable. Can you teach me?” ‘You really want to learn?’
“Mm!”
“I really don ‘t know what to do with you.” Immortal Crane glared at her angrily.
Then, he took a book and handed it to her. “In half a month, memorize this book word for word. I’ll teach you how to distinguish poison.”
“Thank you, Master!” Ji Zhao was extremely grateful. She held the book as if she had obtained a treasure.
On the other side.
After succeeding, Lu Hongshan returned to the Lu Residence in a good mood. “Have you found out the information I asked you to find out?”
‘Yes.” Xing’er nodded hurriedly. ‘That young gentleman’s surname is Shen, and his name is Yao, and he’s from Dingyuan County. He’s friends with the eldest son of the Qin family, Qin Minghong.”
“Shen Yao, that’s a good name.” Lu Hongshan slowly took the bird’s nest porridge from Xing’er and smiled. “1 want this man.”
“But Miss, this Young Master Shen is friends with Young Master Qin…”
“So what?” Lu Hongshan smiled nonchalantly. Her enchanting peach blossom eyes shone with determination.. “It’s his blessing to be chosen by me!
