The carriage arrived at its destination, and Zhulan followed suit, alighting from the carriage. The crowd in front was so dense that Zhulan did not press forward, while Chang Lian and Rongchuan, accompanied by a young servant, squeezed their way in.
Although Zhulan did not go forward, she could still hear the discussions around her. The number of successful candidates this year was not large, still at one hundred and fifty. The Emperor was still not generous, and the candidates who failed to make the list left soullessly, while those who passed awaited the palace examination with excitement in a few days' time.
Zhulan couldn't help but tip-toe, though she had confidence in Chang Lian and Rongchuan, her heart was still not at ease without exact news.
Despite her age, Nanny Song had exceptionally good eyesight, "Third Young Master and Young Master Rongchuan have returned."
Zhulan saw them too and became cheerful at the sight of their faces, "They must have passed."
