Zhao Ruxi happily ate with his grandmother and mother, went back to take a nap, and drew a large-scale painting after getting up.

Master, she still owes her homework.

She put down the distracting thoughts in her heart here, but the old lady and the Zhu family kept fidgeting, and specially sent someone to wait in the concierge, lest they not know in time when the people from the Ministry of Rites came.

But until it was time for dinner, the people from the Ministry of Rites still did not come.

Therefore, Zhao Ruxi still ate happily at dinner as at noon, but the old lady and Zhu were very thoughtful.

During this time, Zhao Ruxi was busy with the exam, and the old lady and the Zhu family inquired about the details that needed to be paid attention to in the palace exam.

Even if Zhao Ruxi doesn't pass on the word, Jinshi can always take it, right? She'll try second place. In any case, the second class will definitely be able to win.

But by this time, Zhao Ruxi's Jinshi official uniform for tomorrow's ceremony had still not been delivered. Could it be that something went wrong?

Seeing that Zhao Ruxi put down the dishes and chopsticks, obviously full, the old lady finally said what she had been holding for half an hour: "Sister Xi, do you want to go to your master and ask to see what is going on?" Why hasn't your Jinshi official uniform been delivered yet? ”

Zhao Ruxi was stunned, took the wet handkerchief and wiped his mouth and hands, and said with a smile: "Grandmother, the matter has come to this point, it is useless to ask, and I am embarrassed by my master." Forget it. ”

It's not that she didn't mutter. But she knew that both the master and the senior brother were very attentive to her affairs, not to mention Xiao Lingyan.

If Xiao Yuzhen was really angry because of her request to be released, and directly removed her from the list of jinshi, Master and Xiao Lingyan would definitely be very anxious and try to make up for it as much as possible. If even they can't do it, then there is no point in her sending someone to tell Master.

It's better to wait for news at home.

Speaking of which, even if you don't get into the jinshi, it's nothing. Although she would disappoint Princess Shangde and Madame Cui, she couldn't set an example for talented women like Bai Wei, but she did her best. She has nothing to lose.

If she wants to leave the capital, she doesn't have to be an official. Didn't Zhao Yuanxun serve in Gusu Mansion? She followed her grandmother and mother directly to live in Gusu Mansion. When the time comes, there will be no pressure, and she will still have the time and energy to make more money and make more new gadgets.

The death of her and Xiao Lingyan has passed, and Zhao Yuankun, who convicted Suiping Bofu, is dead; After two years of operation, Xiao Lingyan has accumulated a certain amount of strength; The Fu family is still there, and the strength of Xiao Lingpu and the Cen family should not be underestimated, and Xiao Lingyan does not have much danger to his life.

She doesn't have many obsessions in this world. If he and his family and Xiao Lingyan can live well, it's okay.

So if this goal is not reached, then it will not be achieved.

Thinking of this, she comforted the old lady and Zhu a few words, stood up, and was about to say goodbye and go back to the courtyard, when Caidie, who had been waiting at the gatehouse for an afternoon, ran in quickly, panting and shouting, "Old, old lady, lady...... Girl, someone from the Ministry of Rites has arrived. ”

"Really? That's great. Hurry, hurry, please. The old lady was overjoyed and stood up.

Zhu also likes to be in shape.

Only Zhao Ruxi's face was not only not happy, but his brows were still wrinkled.

She will try to take second place, as long as her article is not a big problem, no matter how she should not fall out of the top ten. And she has been writing articles for so long, she knows how to avoid taboos, and no matter how she will step on the minefield, she will write taboo articles.

The official uniforms of the Ministry of Rites are given in order of rank. Doesn't the fact that they have only now sent clothes show that she is a fellow jinshi, maybe the last one?

She Xu Xi has been the master of the first place in the exam since she was a child. Now let her take the second place in the exam and transfer to the last place in the top three, what does it mean? It's even more frustrating than not admitting her.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Shi noticed his daughter's face and asked hurriedly.

"Grandmother, mother, you have to be mentally prepared. Maybe I only took the last place in the top three, otherwise I wouldn't have sent the public service at the right time. Zhao Ruxi gave them vaccinations.

The smiles of the old lady and the Zhu family froze on their faces all of a sudden.

The person who came was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Everyone greeted each other, and he apologized to Zhao: "I'm really sorry, Zhao Jinshi." The Jinshi official uniform we originally prepared for you, the emperor was not satisfied with it, and asked the palace embroiderer to redo it, so it was sent late. ”

As he spoke, he motioned for his entourage to open a box, revealing the Jinshi official uniform inside.

There are no female jinshi in Dajin, so Zhao Ruxi participated in the examination and also took the second place in the examination, but it was difficult for the Ministry of Death Rites.

At the beginning, the Ministry of Rites discussed for a long time, and felt that Zhao Ruxi should be given the same clothes as the male jinshi to show that he would be treated equally. Lest it feel strange to make a fancy women's outfit and mix it up in a bunch of uniform outfits.

This matter was also reported to the emperor by the Ministry of Rites, and the emperor did not object.

But today, he suddenly sent someone to say that it was inappropriate to wear men's clothes for Zhao Ruxi, and asked the Ministry of Rites to change a set of women's jinshi uniforms. The Ministry of Rites is going to send out more than 100 Jinshi official uniforms today, which is already extremely busy, and this time it is simply chaotic.

You must know that clothes are not made directly. It's okay to make clothes directly, invite a few capable embroiderers, and you can make a set of clothes in an hour.

But they not only have to make clothes, but also design, and they also need to design to the emperor's satisfaction, which is troublesome.

In addition to clothes, there are also hats. When Jinshi participated in the ceremony, he had to wear a crown of three branches and nine leaves. Women have buns, generally do not wear crowns, and wear the same hat as male jinshi, will they not be lost to everyone again? It's a real headache.

After several officials of the Ministry of Rites discussed, they asked someone to draw a picture and send it to the emperor, and then revised it according to the emperor's opinions, and went back and forth three times before the style and color of the clothes were given. After that, I asked the embroiderer to do it, so I didn't send the clothes until now.

Hearing Master Mo's explanation, Zhao Ruxi's mood improved. Took the box and thanked Master Mo.

The worries in the hearts of the old lady and the Zhu family were also removed, and they warmly beckoned Master Mo to sit down and eat tea with a smile on their faces.

If it's a servant, they can also reward each other with a big reward. But Lord Mo is an official of the imperial court, and silver cannot be sent, so he has to ask the kitchen to make snacks to entertain.

In fact, they wanted to inquire about the ranking of the temple examination. But the final ranking will not be determined until tomorrow, and even if they ask, Master Mo will only say that he doesn't know. The two of them had no choice but to give up.

The emperor took great pains to ask the Ministry of Rites to prepare the dress, thinking that Zhao Ruxi's ranking would not be low.
