"Why... is everyone looking at me?"
In the tavern room, Chai Chai asked in a bewildered and anxious whisper, her knees still holding a bamboo basket filled with spinach, yams, and water shield.
"Phew..."
Li Ang slowly exhaled, digesting the fact that his maid was actually a genius. After considering his words, he said, "Cui Qiao, do you want to... take the Academic Palace exam?"
"The Academic Palace exam? Who? Me?" Chai Chai instinctively shrank her head and quickly waved her hands. "No, I can't. I haven't read much. Uh, well, I've read a little, but they were all just miscellaneous books."
"Trying doesn't hurt." Sitting next to Chai Chai, Li Leqing gently patted her knee and turned to speak softly to Sui Yi, "Senior Sister Sui, I remember there have been similar cases in the Academic Palace before, haven't there? When they reach a certain age, their Spirit Vein matures, and they suddenly show a learning talent far beyond ordinary people."
