The last round was etiquette about how to kowtow and get up when they entered the palace and met carriages.

Jing Yue felt sour all over. The assessment was really exhausting!

Fortunately, there was just the last round left.

All the students came to the stage again and carefully listened to the requirements. After that, they began to walk step by step with a very short pace and great dignity. When hearing the command, they kneeled and kotowed by following the courtesy. By the time Jing Yue was kneeling down, she felt her uniform was dragged by something.

Jing Yue quietly looked around. To her surprise, it was Jing Yan who kneeled aside stepped on her dress. If Jing Yue stood up and tripped, then all her efforts would be in vain.

Jing Yue’s eyes became cold and she thought Jing Yan was indeed courting death now.

"Arise!" Hearing that, Jing Yan slowly raised her head with a smile in her eyes. When she was about to stand up, suddenly she saw something moving at her feet.

"Hiss..." A flower snake just coiled itself by her feet.

"Ah, ah!!" Jing Yan screamed and hurriedly rushed away. Jing Yue pulled out her dress as expected and stood up decently with head bowed.

"What happened?" The Empress Dowager in the honored seat slowly frowned and asked.

"Snake... there is a snake!" Jing Yan pointed at Jing Yue’s feet in horror.

"Snake?" Empress Dowager followed her direction but didn't see anything special. Momo aside also shook her head. Jing Yue still bowed her head and pretended to know nothing with confusion in her eyes, looking as if she didn’t understand Jing Yan’s exaggerated reaction.

"Was it because you forgot the etiquette and talked nonsense to fool Empress Dowager?” The Empress sitting by the side said casually.

Jing Yue almost rushed to hug her for those words.

What a nice person!

She had been considering how to express the same words in a reasonable tone.

The idea just showed up before the Empress Fei Yazhu spoke it out!

"How dare you fool me!" The Empress Dowager glared at Jing Yan and angrily announced, "You failed the assessment, and others passed!"

"No... No! Your Grace! I really saw the snake!" The face of Jing Yan suddenly changed.

"How dare you call yourself ‘I’ in front of the Empress Dowager!" The Empress angrily rebuked. The Empress Dowager’s face became elusive and finally she reprimanded a woman sitting under the stage, “Look at your beloved daughter, who really disgraces your family of the Prime Minister!"

With that said, the Empress Dowager got up and left. The condemned woman became deadly pale without any chance to explain.

"Miss Jing Yan, wasn't it fun?" Watching the crowd leave, Jing Yue walked leisurely to stand in front of Jing Yan and jeered.

"It's you... you framed me!" Jing Yan stared at Jing Yue as if going to eat her.


"Miss Jing Yan, don’t slander me! I didn't do anything." Jing Yue outstretched her hands, indicating her innocence.

"Oh... A dog will leap over a wall in desperation." Shangguan Linglan, wearing a proud look, walked by Jing Yan, "It doesn’t look like a good dog, let’s go."

"Hah... I hardly know you become so humorous and silver-tongued." Jing Yue almost laughed out loud and kept up with Shangguan Linglan.
