When the capital city was blanketed by another heavy snowfall, the third round of the test that everyone was closely watching arrived.

After the three n.o.ble ladies were summoned into the palace, they found that the Emperor was also present today.

Xiao Jin sat on the dragon throne in a black dragon robe. His extraordinary bearing made the hearts of the three n.o.ble ladies thump wildly and they instantly became fl.u.s.tered and disoriented.

Su Ying, on the other hand, acted as if she was very amenable and got the kneeling n.o.ble ladies to rise.

“Your Majesty, what do you think of these young ladies?

Xiao Jin’s dark eyes turned to Su Ying vaguely. He didn’t know when she had mastered the art of a superficial smile.

He nodded with any emotion. “Quite good.”

“Your Consort also feels that they are quite good. Today is the final test. As long as the three of you pa.s.s, you can stay in the palace.

Upon hearing this, the three women became so nervous that they didn’t dare to breathe loudly. Right now, the Empress was the only one in the Imperial harem. If the three women could really stay, they thought that things wouldn’t be too bad from any perspective.

As Su Ying spoke, she got someone to bring the pitch-black boxes in. There was a hole cut into the top of each box which was just enough for a hand to reach in.

“In this final test, I want to test your courage. To become members of the Imperial Family, not only do you need extraordinary physical strength and eyesight, but you also need extraordinary courage.”

The moment Su Ying finished speaking, Zhou Qing stepped forward and said, -There’s something deadly in each box. What you three ladies need to do is to locate a small red ball in each box.”

The expressions of the three women changed slightly. This meant they had to risk their lives to find a red ball in that box!

However, Zhou Qing didn’t give them much time to panic. “Ladies, please begin. You only have 15 minutes. If you can’t find the small ball within 15 minutes, it means you have failed the test.

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Qing stepped aside and the three boxes were revealed to the three women.

The three of them turned pale and did not dare to go forward for a long time. However, time was limited. If they did not go, they would fail the test.

The Empress was just trying to frighten them, wasn’t she? Surely she wouldn’t really let them die in the main hall?

When she thought of this, a bolder one walked to one of the boxes and gritted her teeth as she stuck her hand into it.

Her heart was already in her mouth. When her fingertips touched the icy cold liquid, she quickly retracted her hand as if she had received an electric shock.

“Argh!”

The other two young ladies who were about to step forward were so freaked out when they heard the first woman shout that they almost fell to the ground on their b.u.t.ts.

“What… what’s wrong? What… what did you touch?” The young girl in red asked with trembling lips.

The bold young lady’s breathing became heavy. “Water… it’s water, right?” “Don’t be afraid. It’s not anything terrifying,” Su Ying comforted her gently.

However, her words of comfort were obviously useless.

Seeing that half of the time limit had already lapsed, if they did not find the ball now, they would fail the test. It was not easy for them to reach this stage after beating the hundreds of carefully selected women. If they failed, it would make them feel very aggrieved!

The three women once again mustered their courage to step forward. Just as they reached inside with their hands, there was a sudden commotion outside the hall. A group of black-robed men rushed in with blood-stained swords.

“Emperor, you dog! Hand over your life!

The a.s.sa.s.sins dashed toward Xiao Jin without another word.

This turn of events happened so quickly that the people in the inner hall could not react in time. When they saw the eunuchs in the inner hall being slain by the a.s.sa.s.sins’ swords, the three young ladies came back to their senses and screamed in terror as they tried to escape.

Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes narrowed as she kicked the dragon desk in front of her away and darted forward to fight the a.s.sa.s.sins.

“Protect His Majesty!” Su Ying roared in fury as she punched the a.s.sa.s.sin in the face.

“Argh! Argh! Help! Help me!”

The screams of the young ladies intermingled with the bloodthirsty sounds of Su Ying and the a.s.sa.s.sins fighting and the violent racket sent chills down one’s spine.

Xiao Jin was surrounded by the Imperial Guards who had rushed in, and the a.s.sa.s.sins were quickly taken down by Su Ying and the Imperial Guards.

The a.s.sa.s.sins were then taken away by the Imperial Guards, leaving streaks of b.l.o.o.d.y trails in the inner hall.

The three young ladies looked at the corpses on the ground and were so terrified that their faces turned pale.

Su Ying wiped the blood off her hands without any emotion and ordered the palace servants to clean up the inner hall.

The palace servants moved very quickly. In the blink of an eye, the inner hall returned to its previous appearance. However, no matter how much incense was used, the strong stench of blood still filled the air, making people feel nauseous.

Su Ying had already returned to her seat and sat down. “Zhou Qing, go bring three bowls of calming tea for the three ladies.

“Yes, Your Imperial Highness.”

The calming tea was delivered to the three young ladies, but when they looked at the thick, black tea, they thought of the very gruesome scene just now.

“Ugh!” Someone couldn’t contain herself anymore as she covered her mouth and vomited.

Throughout the entire process, Su Ying sat quietly in her chair and watched. It wasn’t until the three of them had completely caught their breath that she spoke casually.

“Were you terrified?”

The three of them were so ashen-faced that they could not speak.

“Then do you know how many times His Majesty has to experience something like this in his life?”

“Your… Your Imperial Highness, please forgive us. We… we are useless…” Su Ying raised her icy eyes slightly. “All of you probably have not forgotten what I wanted to test all of you on today. Courage. As the Emperor’s people, what should you do at the first moment when the Emperor is in danger?

The lips of the three women trembled as they thought of Su Ying’s figure das.h.i.+ng out without any hesitation.

Protect His Majesty…

When there was danger, as the Emperor’s people, they should immediately step forward to protect the Emperor.

“Do you understand now? These three boxes only contain ice water, and the appearance of those a.s.sa.s.sins is my actual test for you. The role of a woman is not just to give a man pillow talk. None of you have pa.s.sed the test, so leave the palace.”

The three women collapsed to the ground on their b.u.t.ts. However, for some reason, they did not feel any regret that they did not succeed in staying in the palace.

“Yes. Thank you for your teachings, Your Imperial Highness. Your subject will take her leave.”

After the three of them left, Xiao Jin, who had been acting with the proper decorum, held Su Ying’s hand and looked at her solemnly. “If we really encounter such an event, I will never let you rush to the front.

Su Ying felt the warmth in his palm and grabbed his large hand in response. “Don’t you feel it’s a pity that the beauties didn’t get to stay?”

“If you became unhappy because of someone else, that would be abominable.” Su Ying chuckled softly. “I won’t bother with this matter anymore. You’ll have to deal with the trouble in the aftermath yourself.” Her att.i.tude was already very clear. If these women wanted to enter the palace, they had to pa.s.s her test. Otherwise, they had to go and look for Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin held her hand as they got up and walked out of the hall. “Mm-hmm. If anyone dares to bother you again, I’ll smash that dog head of his.”

“Xiao Jin, you’re really becoming more and more violent.

“Otherwise, they will think that my fists are not hard enough.”

“Hahahaha!”

The three young ladies were quickly sent out of the palace. Their families had been waiting outside the palace since early in the morning and immediately went to welcome them when they saw their daughters come out.

-What what happened? Why do you look so pale?” The one who spoke was the wife of the imperial Astronomical Bureau official. She was very surprised to see the ashen hue on her daughter’s delicate face that could not even be covered up by the makeup.

“Mother, Mother, I… I don’t want to enter the palace! I don’t want to enter the palace anymore!”
