For Madam Situ to still be able to calmly face the mother and daughter pair was already an extremely difficult feat.

"Young noble NanGong, my body is not feeling well today. I'm afraid I won't be able to go and watch enchanting. I assume you are going to enter the palace today to take the female examination, so I'll leave Allure in your care. I wonder if this is feasible? " Madam Situ looked at Nangong Ling and asked. When Nangong Ling heard this, he looked deeply at Madam Situ and nodded his head, "Madam, please leave this matter to me."

With that, Nangong Ling also left.

Only then did Madam Situ turn around and return to her residence. She staggered as if she was about to collapse.

Everyone had a feeling that was difficult to express, because once they thought of it, it would be heart-tearing and lung-splitting. When Madam Situ returned to her room, she threw herself onto her bed and curled up into a ball.

Tears rolled down the corners of his eyes. He silently cried.

"Allure." On the carriage, General Situ and Yao Ruo were silent for a long time. Finally, General Situ couldn't help but call out. Situ Yaoyao smiled and asked, "Father, what do you need?"

"How is your hand?" General Situ awkwardly asked as he looked at the scar on his palm.

Situ Yaoru hid her hands behind her back, "Fortunately, it doesn't hurt anymore."

"That's good. What happened last time was Father's fault."

"Father was right. In that kind of situation, father should have naturally guaranteed that my Situ Family would be fine first. An enchanting life would not bring about much trouble. " Situ Yaoyao's attitude was indifferent.

When General Situ heard this, he agreed in his heart. However, he couldn't say it on the surface. After all, she was his daughter. All these years, he had never paid attention to this daughter of his.

And now, he had grown up to this extent. In fact … He didn't understand anymore.

"You and your mother are really similar." General Situ sighed.

"Mother He?" Situ Yaoru was a bit surprised.

"Yeah, your mother was like this all those years ago, stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat. Allure, if you are unable to pass today's women's examination, don't force yourself. "You are the young miss of my Situ Family. Even if you are not taking the examination for a woman, there will definitely still be someone willing to marry you." General Situ said.

Hearing that, Situ Yaoru couldn't help but laugh, "Haha, that's right. If I were still Miss Situ, perhaps there would be someone willing to marry me. But Father, if I hadn't taken the women's exam, would I still be Miss Situ? "

General Situ went silent after hearing Situ Yaoyao's question.

"Father, you don't have to lie to me anymore. I knew you loved tears. All these years, my father had only punished me and had only disdained me. It seemed that her father only wanted to give Redtears the position of Miss Situ, right? All these years, I've disliked you because of this, right? " Situ Yaoyao asked.

General Situ frowned when he heard this.

"Father, you don't need to be silent. Your daughter understands." Situ Yaoru looked injured. It was so pitiful that General Situ hesitated when he saw it.

Indeed, all these years, he had hoped that the Redtears would be able to ascend to the throne room. But... If the Redtears mother and daughter became the owners of the mansion … Then what about the enchanting mother and daughter?

What would their days be like?

He had always forgotten that Madam was a member of the Gu family. She was also a woman. They also need to be taken care of.

General Situ was extremely nervous.

Situ Yaoru's heart was satisfied as she saw his expression fluctuate between bright and dark. What she wanted was General Situ's uneasiness. Only when she realized that he owed her and his mother, would he be able to consider a little when Situ Hongshui pretended to be pitiful. Otherwise, she would have been scolded by General Situ for his pitiful appearance.

Along the way, the two of them did not speak again. General Situ's mind was filled with the words spoken by Situ Yaoru earlier, while she was looking at the scenery outside.

The carriage stopped in front of the palace gates.

"Master, please get off." The carriage driver's tone was respectful. It was only then did General Situ realize that they had already arrived at the place. He busily got off the carriage first.

He then picked up Situ Yaoru.

Seeing that it was General Situ and Situ Yaoru, many of the ministers that came to send off their daughters looked over as well.

They all knew that the eldest daughter of the Situ Family was the one General Situ cared about. After all, she had just stepped off a carriage. At the door, a eunuch who was in charge of receiving guests walked over enthusiastically, "This servant pays his respects to the general."

"Isn't this Eunuch Zhang? Eunuch Zhang got up quickly. "My daughter …"

"Father." General Situ hadn't finished speaking when he heard the woman's aggrieved voice. General Situ's smile froze. When he looked over, he saw that Redtears was looking at him with a wronged expression.

When General Situ saw this, he hastily went to her side and asked, "Redtear, what's wrong?"

"No, I'm just not feeling well." Situ Hongshui appeared to be on the verge of collapse.

Seeing this, General Situ felt his heart ache. He hurriedly supported her to Eunuch Zhang and said, "Eunuch Zhang, my daughter is not well. After entering the palace, please take care of her." As he spoke, General Situ gave the silver to the eunuch.

Eunuch Zhang was a smart man. He knew which one of them to take care of when he saw the situation.

Thus, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Aiyo, General, don't worry. This servant will definitely take good care of this lady." As he spoke, he turned to look at Situ Yaoru. He didn't know what to do.

General Situ looked at Situ Hongshui and said, "Allure, you are big sister and you can often accompany your mother into the palace. It seems that you are quite knowledgeable about the matters of the palace. I believe that you will definitely not disappoint me. "

Trust your sister! Situ Yaoru cursed in her heart. However, there was a smile on his face, "Yes, Father. Allure will not disappoint you. "

"En, that's good. You may all enter the palace, but today will decide your future. " General Situ said.

Both of them said in unison, "Yes, father."

With that, the two of them entered the Imperial Palace together with this Eunuch Zhang.

The women's exam was held in the dream hall next to the palace's main hall.

As they walked into the grand hall, Situ Yaoru saw many familiar faces. Most of them were daughters of ministers.

"Miss Situ, please wait here. Soon someone will come and tell you where to go and what to do. "Pay attention to your body." Eunuch Zhang enthusiastically said to Situ Hongshui.

Situ Hongshui had a gentle expression on her face as she said, "Thank you, Eunuch."

After Eunuch Zhang left, Situ Hongshui looked at Situ Yaoyu mockingly and said: "Elder sister. I'm so sorry. Father has forgotten about you because of me. "

When Situ Yaoru heard this, she didn't get angry. She only smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as you can pass the examination, it will be a good thing." If you can't get through … Now it's become a joke. "

"Hmph, I wonder who will become a joke." Situ Hongshui coldly laughed.

Just as Situ Hongshui was provoking her, a girl wearing a yellow robe walked over. This woman was the one who had made the empress dowager happy, Mu Wanwan.

"Miss Mu." Seeing Mu Wanwan walk over, Situ Hongshui hurriedly walked up to her and said. However, Mu Wanwan only glanced at her and smiled mockingly. "Where did this servant come from? He's dirty my eyes." He walked in front of Situ Yaoyao with a bright smile on his face, "Miss Situ, would it be possible for you to come to my place for a cup of tea?"

Mu Wanwan's attitude caused Situ Yaoru to be stunned. However, she still agreed with the intention of slapping them in the face.

Mu Wan Wan brought Situ Yaoyue away, leaving her face in disgrace. Sitting on the chair, Situ Hongshui's heart was filled with hatred. No matter how hard she tried, everyone's eyes were only focused on Situ Yaoyao.

The reason for all of this was that Situ Yaoru was the young miss of the Situ Family.

Humph! Let's see how you will still be so mighty after today!

"Miss Situ, I really like the poem you wrote last time." After Mu Wan Wan pulled Situ Yaoyao to her side, she went straight to the point.

When Situ Yaoru heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief. He thought something was going to happen to this woman, but it turned out to be this.

"Miss Situ, will you compose a poem today?" Mu Wan Wan looked at Situ Yaoru and continued to ask.

After Situ Yaoru heard this, she was suddenly enlightened. Was he trying to find out what his opponent was up to?

"The topic has not been decided, and I do not know what to do. It might not be a poem exam for a girl. " Situ Yaoru said. When the woman heard this, she nodded. "You're right."

"But Miss Mu, you should have already passed the female exam right?" Situ Yaoru looked at Mu Wanwan and asked with a smile. Hearing this, Mu Wan Wan's face reddened. "Mhm."
