The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Chapter 401 Why don't you choose according to what I said?

The selection of assessment content has begun.

Before the selection, Queen Shi told them that after this round of assessment, six people would remain.

However, Queen Shi still did not mention the content of the third round of assessment.

As everyone began to make their choices, Xiao Yue, who was standing next to Queen Shi, immediately gave Jiang Suining a look. The meaning was very clear, telling her to hurry up and be careful that all the places for scriptures and documents had been picked up.

As for the ladies present, since they were able to pass the first round of assessment, they were naturally more familiar with arranging banquets, organizing scriptures and writing documents. Most of them wanted to choose this category.

Seeing the palace maids who were responsible for registering the scriptures and documents walking towards them one after another, Jiang Suining still stood where he was.

"Miss Jiang, aren't you going to choose?" Lu Yan also chose scriptures and documents. She had already finished registering and walked to Jiang Suining's side.

"I'm just a little hesitant." Jiang Suining smiled softly and glanced at Xiao Yue calmly.

The latter didn't understand what Jiang Suining was still hesitating about and frowned in confusion.

Just as she was about to open her mouth to remind him, Jiang Suining finally moved.

However, she did not go to the scriptures and documents, but instead went to the banquet arrangements.

Lu Yan stood aside and waited until Jiang Suining finished registering, then spoke in surprise.

"I thought you would choose scriptures and documents."

After all, compared to the complicated banquet arrangements, dealing with scriptures and documents feels easier, and you can also get in touch with some important things.

"The classics and documents are indeed very good, but the banquets and arrangements in the palace are equally important." Jiang Suining kept smiling.

Lu Yan didn't say much, just smiled and wished Jiang Suining good luck in the future, hoping that both of them could pass the test.

Xiao Yue's expression didn't look very good. She found an opportunity to walk to Jiang Suining and asked her in a low voice.

"Why didn't you choose the scripture document that I was responsible for examining?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Princess. However, if I choose, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you."

"What do you mean?"

"Princess, you have finally got the chance to be in charge of the assessment, so you must not make any mistakes. If you are biased towards me during the assessment, if someone finds out, I'm afraid they will use it to make trouble."

"But what if you fail the second round of assessment and lose the chance to become a female official?" Xiao Yue frowned and spoke worriedly.

Jiang Suining was a great help to her. She entered the palace as a female official, which made it more convenient for her to contact her in the future.

"Don't worry Princess, I will do my best."

Xiao Yue was about to speak, but Jiang Suining added something first.

"If there is really trouble, I will ask the princess for help, but I can't always count on the princess to help me right from the start."

Jiang Suining smiled respectfully and calmly, with a look on his face that showed he didn't want to cause trouble for Xiao Yue, which made Xiao Yue feel at a loss for words.

She thought about it and could only nod and said, "Forget it, what you said makes sense. Now that the selection has been made, you should show all your abilities. This princess is waiting for you to be selected!"

"Yes, I remember it. Thank you, Princess." Jiang Suining responded.

Watching Xiao Yue's back as she left his side, the smile on Jiang Suining's face didn't change, but his eyes became a little colder.

Xiao Yue was not a careful and cautious person, and she loved to show off. If she really chose scriptures and documents, and the other party insisted on giving her a break regardless of the consequences, she would be asking for trouble.

Even if he was not discovered or criticized at the time and was successfully selected, it might still become a hidden danger and handle in the future.

So she would rather make another choice than leave such a trouble behind.

Perhaps because of the mistakes made in the first round of assessment, the second round of assessment was obviously more thorough.

The scriptures and documents were handed over to Xiao Yue, while the rest of the banquet arrangements were personally taken care of by Queen Shi.

The content was not difficult. Queen Shi simply gave the questions and the female members who participated in the assessment had to submit a complete banquet arrangement plan within the specified time.

The content involved should include the arrangements before the banquet, various situations that may arise during the banquet, and how to end the banquet.

Although most of the female members who took part in the assessment, except Jiang Suining, had no experience in arranging banquets, they had naturally participated in palace banquets or large-scale banquets in other mansions, so they were quite adept at writing about it.

As for the arrangement and record-keeping of classics and documents, the disrupted classics had to be sorted out within the specified time. At the same time, each person would draw a copy of the document with messy records, and sort them out clearly according to the recording method commonly used in the palace, and transcribe and archive them.

The assessments on both sides will be conducted simultaneously, and both will be limited to one and a half hours.

As for the scriptures and documents, Lu Yan first completed the classification and organization of the scriptures, and then began to carefully examine the document she had drawn.

She found that the level of confusion was even greater than she had imagined, but fortunately Lu Yan quickly figured it out and began to organize the records.

As for the banquet arrangements, everyone was quite confident at first, but as they wrote, they gradually realized that they seemed to have written it too simply. Several people completed the arrangements for the entire banquet in less than half an hour, and they themselves felt that there were many problems.

Only then did they realize that the complexity of a banquet was far beyond their imagination. Although they had participated in many banquets, they were not clear about the trivial details of the actual arrangement. The expressions on their faces also changed from being at ease in the beginning to being overwhelmed and dejected later.

Queen Shi sat in the main seat and was able to see the expressions on everyone's faces. After looking around, her gaze stopped on Jiang Suining's face.

Since the assessment began, Jiang Suining's expression has not changed much, and he has always looked focused.

"It seems that today's winner has been determined." Queen Shi picked up the teacup, hiding the smile on her lips, and whispered to the nanny beside her.

The head nanny followed Empress Shi's gaze and looked at Jiang Suining. After thinking for a while, she said, "Your Majesty, isn't it too early to draw conclusions now? I heard that Miss Jiang opened a Zhanxing Tower, where banquets are often arranged. I think that's why she seems to be so adept at it. However, the banquet arrangements in the palace and outside the palace are different after all. I'm afraid Miss Jiang has never even attended a palace banquet. It seems too difficult to ask her to write a perfect palace banquet arrangement."

To be honest, she didn't expect that Miss Jiang would choose this category. After all, she was the first in the first round of assessment, and she should be more familiar with those classics and documents.

Empress Shi kept smiling, "But I have great confidence in her."

Although she and Jiang Suining had not met each other often, he did not seem to be an impulsive or blind person. Since he had chosen this palace banquet arrangement, he must have his own plans in mind.

The clouds move with the wind, and the sun reaches noon.

With the palace maid's reminder, an hour and a half had passed.
