The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 369

Time passed by minute by minute, and at the gate of the Regent's Palace, those who wanted to take the test were ready and lined up.

The gate of the Prince Regent's Palace was already bustling with activity. In the middle of the street, rows of tables and chairs were neatly arranged, and on each table was a piece of white paper and a brush.

The surrounding streets were already crowded with people who had come to watch the excitement. They were talking and looking forward to the assessment that was about to begin.

Xue Zhiyan walked to a table in the middle of the street and sat down. Behind him were several black-clad secret guards with serious expressions on their faces. They were obviously here to supervise the assessment.

"Write down all the familiar medicinal herbs and their effects on pieces of paper. The time is one hour. Those who want to take the test now please find a seat and take a seat." Xue Zhiyan announced loudly. His voice was clear and powerful, and it spread throughout the street.

As he finished speaking, the people taking the test walked to their respective tables and sat down.

As the candidates for the test took their seats one after another, the secret guards at the side struck the bronze drum, and the test officially began!

They all had expressions of nervousness and anticipation on their faces. Some closed their eyes and thought, trying to recall the medicinal materials knowledge they had learned; others picked up brushes and wrote quickly on paper, trying to complete the test within the limited time.

The people around also quieted down. They held their breath and stared at those who were taking the test. Some knowledgeable people began to discuss in a low voice, guessing who might get good results.

The test time passed by minute by minute, and those taking the test were trying hard to recall the medicinal materials knowledge they had learned.

Some people had beads of sweat on their foreheads, obviously thinking hard; some people frowned, as if they had encountered difficult problems.

Xue Zhiyan and several secret guards watched silently from the side, with no expression on their faces.

"Princess, don't you want to go out and take a look?" Qiu Kui said.

"No need, after the assessment is over, those who are qualified will be able to see them naturally," Shangguan Ziling said, "By the way, the weather is cold, let Chunxiao and the others make some steamed buns and boil some hot tea, and give them to them after the assessment is over."

"Yes"

After an hour, the assessment finally ended.

Xue Zhiyan stood in front of the crowd, his eyes as sharp as torches, examining the contents written by those taking the test one by one. Sometimes his brows were furrowed, and sometimes they were relaxed.

Just then, a group of guards came over carrying pot after pot of steaming buns and brewed tea.

"The princess is kind-hearted. She felt that everyone must have had hard work taking the test on the street in the middle of winter, so she specially steamed hot buns and provided tea for everyone." A guard announced loudly.

When the crowd heard the news, they immediately started talking, and their faces showed expressions of surprise and gratitude, as if they had received a great gift from heaven.

"The Regent Princess is so kind!" someone exclaimed, "She still thought of us in such cold weather. Thank you so much!"

"Yes, yes, she is such a kind-hearted person." Another person echoed, "I have only heard of her reputation before, but I didn't expect she cares so much about the people."

"I have heard of the reputation of the Regent Princess for a long time. She is not only smart, but also kind-hearted. She is a rare good woman." An old man said with emotion, "It seems that the rumors are true."

As the discussions grew louder, the crowd began to stir.

Some people lined up impatiently to receive the hot steamed buns and tea, their faces filled with joy and anticipation, as if they had already felt the warmth coming towards them.

Xue Zhiyan looked at all this and couldn't help but feel a little relieved. He knew that the princess's kindness could not only alleviate the cold and hunger of these people, but also win their hearts.
