Meanwhile, at the Imperial Palaceโs Morning Sun Hall.
The examination review was well underway.
Two hundred Female Officials were temporarily transferred from the imperial court. Under the leadership of Li Yanru and Zhang Wenlin, they were correcting and selecting exam papers.
The eloquent and outstanding exam papers were given to the Prime Minister for personal review.
The top fifty candidates were chosen from these papers and would participate in the palace exams held at the Imperial Palace within three days.
The Morning Sun Hall was brightly lit, as bright as day.
The female officials were reviewing exam papers methodically, no one was deliberately making noise, creating an environment so quiet that only the sound of flipping pages could be heard.

In Quiet Elegance Residence.
Ye Xueโe was sitting in front of the makeup table, her eyebrows knitted with worry as she sighed with her eyes closed.
Yingโer lifted the curtain and came in with a pot of hot tea. Seeing that Madam was preoccupied, she gently asked after setting down the tea, "Madam, are you worrying about Missโs marriage again?"
"Exactly."
Ye Xueโeโs brows tightened together, like they were knotted in worry, "The princes of Xichu and Nanxun both seem to have good conditions, but..."
"But they are not the candidates Madam has in mind."
Yingโer read her mind and pointed out the truth with a smile.
"Sigh."
Ye Xueโe sighed softly and remained silent, tacitly agreeing to her words.
"Madam doesnโt have to worry."
Yingโer twitched her eyes and comforted her with a smile, "Yingโer heard that Young Master Liuyun intends to keep the Miss at home for a few more years. He will not rush her to get married."
"Even if the Old Master says that he will not arrange a marriage now, it doesnโt mean that such a thing wonโt happen in the future."
Ye Xueโe was still worried, "Marriage between nations is imperative. In the next few years, we may still use the excuse that Qingluo is young and not of marriageable age. But in a few years, when sheโs older, it will be inescapable."
Yingโer, sensing Madamโs thoughts, continued in the same vein, "Since Madam has her heart set on Young Master Liuyun, why not settle the marriage sooner rather than later?"
"I do have that intention."
Ye Xueโe, rubbing her aching eyebrows, said, "But Qingluo has made it very clear that she doesnโt want to settle down, and she doesnโt seem to have any special feelings for Liuyun."
"Since Miss has her own ideas, Madam should stop worrying."
Yingโer, shocked, quickly changed her tune, "Missโs status nowadays is different from before. No one can influence her decisions, not even the Old Master. He is now going along with her wishes and not begrudging her for anything."
"I understand all that."
Ye Xueโe sighed, "But when I think about how good Liuyun is, how he and Qingluo might miss each other, it breaks my heart."
"Madam, how about this?"
Yingโer, thinking of Madamโs best interest, came up with a new idea, "Why donโt you ask the Old Master to personally visit the palace and secretly inquire about Young Master Liuyunโs intentions?"
"If heโs interested in Miss, you can find an opportunity to promote this matter. If heโs not, at least youโll have an answer and wonโt have to keep worrying."
"Youโre right. Letโs do that."
Yingโerโs words finally struck a chord in Ye Xueโeโs heart, "Tomorrow, Iโll talk to father and ask him to go to the palace and inquire about this matter."

Deep into the night, Lin Qingluo entered the Primordial Orb to water the fields and vegetable gardens.
Lin Jinfeng and Lin Jinming, who rarely behaved themselves, were surprisingly gentle and understanding, helping their sister with the chores, picking vegetables, tilling the soil, and planting new seeds.
