Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

"Don't panic. You've already memorized the article, and you know its quality, so your grade will definitely be good."

Song Yi'an hasn't had time to read or study at all lately, so what are you afraid of?

If you are still number one by then, everyone will recognize your true talent and learning, and you will be the undisputed number one scholar in the capital!

Qin Xiangheng calmed down a bit, "What if he wrote the same thing as me..."

"So what? He can't possibly memorize it word for word. I've heard that the first draft is often the best."

"Second Brother, Qin Xiangheng is very likely to use an article you wrote before to participate in the Spring Examination. Have you thought of a better article?"

Song Ruozhen turned her head. She had reminded her second brother about this matter before. She had not calculated the questions for the imperial examination, but had seen them in a book. She also knew that, coincidentally, Song Yi'an had written an article on the subject before.

Qin Xiangheng stood out among all the candidates with this article and became the first place.

"Fifth sister, I am naturally aware of the articles I write. Now I have more experience than before, and my writing will only be better. You don't need to worry."

Song Yi'an's handsome features radiate confidence. He has studied diligently since childhood without ever slacking off. He is well-versed in the Four Books and Five Classics, and his articles are highly praised.

Others only know that he is a genius, but they don't know how much effort he has put in behind the scenes. He has never run out of ideas, and it is not difficult for him to write an article that is better than the previous one.

Seeing this, Song Ruozhen smiled and said, "Second brother, I have always believed in you."

"It's really strange, Fifth Sister. I've looked around, and no one from the Yun family has come yet."

Song Zhiyu's eyes darted through the crowd. The spring imperial examination was about to begin, and Yun Chengze hadn't shown up yet. Could he be too late?

“I sent the message yesterday, and Nianchu already knows, so there shouldn’t be any problems.” Song Ruozhen frowned.

Both Song Yi'an and Yun Chengze are more talented than Qin Xiangheng.

In his previous life, Qin Xiangheng was able to win first place because Song Yi'an was blind, and Yun Chengze also encountered an accident on his way to the imperial examination, which prevented him from participating in the examination, a great regret.

Therefore, she specially sent someone to the Yun family yesterday to tell Yun Chengze and Yun Nianchu to take a different route today, which should resolve the issue.

But now... something else has happened?

"Third Brother, you stay here with Second Brother, I'll go take a look," Song Ruozhen said.

"You don't need to go, I'll go find them." Song Zhiyu quickly stopped Song Ruozhen. "I'm a man, I'll go with my entourage, it'll be easier to find them with more people."

Song Ruozhen nodded, did some quick calculations, and immediately understood, "Go east along this road, cross this street, and go to the third alley. You should be able to find them there."

"it is good."

Without hesitation, Song Zhiyu waved and called for his men to go together.

"Fifth sister, something happened to Chengze?" Song Yi'an asked worriedly.

Song Ruozhen nodded, "I encountered a small problem, but it's nothing serious. I'm just worried that I might miss the imperial examination because of it, which would be a real shame."

Song Yi'an keenly sensed something was amiss: "Today's imperial examination is of paramount importance to the candidates. If it's delayed, I'm afraid..."

“There is indeed something strange, but the most important thing right now is to get Young Master Yun into the imperial examination.”

Song Ruozhen and Song Yi'an are both outstanding in appearance, and they are undoubtedly very eye-catching standing in the crowd, attracting a lot of attention.

"The King of Chu has arrived!"

Someone shouted, and everyone turned to look. They saw Chu Junting walking towards them with today's examiners.

He noticed Song Ruozhen almost immediately.

She was dressed very sweetly, in a light smoky pink dress with a few touches of pale yellow, which made her look charming and lovely.

It seems that as long as she stands by her brother's side, she is always well-behaved and sensible, which is completely different from her confrontational attitude towards outsiders. They are truly two different people, which is quite endearing.

"Yi'an, what's wrong with you...?"

The dignified Master Wei showed a hint of surprise in his eyes the moment he saw Song Yi'an.

Immediately afterwards, the candidates from the Imperial Academy saw their usually serious and dignified Master Wei suddenly appear with lightning speed and rush to Song Yi'an's side.

"Yi'an, are your eyes all better now?"

Master Wei waved his hand in front of Song Yi'an's eyes. The usually stern and serious old man was now filled with curiosity and eagerness.

Song Yi'an bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Master. My eyes have been healed."

"Good, good!" Master Wei patted Song Yi'an on the shoulder happily. "I knew there was always a way out. How could your talent be wasted like this?"

Do your best on the exam, I'm looking forward to your results!

"Thank you, Master."

The other examiners who witnessed this scene were also amazed. They were all well aware of Song Yi'an's talent, and Master Wei had lamented countless times that he was unable to participate in the imperial examination due to his blindness.

Unexpectedly... it actually cured me!

Chu Junting looked at Song Yi'an, who had returned to normal, and then his gaze fell on the woman with a sweet smile beside him.

"No wonder you rejected my offer before, so this is the surprise?"

Chu Junting raised his eyebrows. He had previously worried that Song Yi'an would become discouraged, so he had gone to great lengths to recommend him to be a teacher at the Imperial Academy.

Although he could not enter officialdom, he could still pursue scholarship, so it was not a disgrace to his talents.

Seeing the spirited Song Yi'an now, even though the imperial examinations haven't started yet, all the talented scholars seemed to automatically admit defeat the moment they saw him, and they understood the gap between him and the others.

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, "My second brother has studied for so many years, and he still hopes to one day be able to share the burden of the court."

"Indeed, quite good." Chu Junting nodded, raising an eyebrow: "You cured your second brother's illness?"

He was asking a question, but the way he said it made it sound like he was stating a fact.

"Your Highness truly has discerning eyes," Song Ruozhen praised.

Chu Junting understood. Song Yanzhou's legs would soon be able to stand up again, and Song Yi'an's eyes had also recovered. The once-mocked Song family had now risen again.

Given Song Yi'an's talent, it was almost certain that he would become an official in the court, and as long as Song Yanzhou could stand up again, his official position would remain.

Therefore, the Song family cannot be said to have declined.

When Qin Shuangshuang saw Chu Junting arrive, she walked over to Song Ruozhen's side. Although they didn't seem very affectionate, she had chased after Chu Junting for so long in her past life that she knew his personality all too well.

Ordinary people wouldn't even have the chance to say a word to him, let alone get him to speak first.

What seductive tricks did Song Ruozhen use to seduce Chu Junting?

Just then, Song Ruozhen noticed Xu He'an hurrying over, his handsome face filled with anxiety. "Miss Song, Chengze hasn't arrived yet?"
