章 863: Chapter 864: Falling Asleep in the Exam Hall_1

After another three days had passed, the date for the palace exam was set; it was to be on the tenth day of the fourth month.

In the days that followed, Ye Zi'an likewise didn't venture out, nor did he accept any invitations from other examination candidates. Instead, he stayed home to calmly prepare for the palace exam.

At first, some people might have thought him somewhat aloof, unwilling to socialize, which could limit his connections in the future.

But when they learned that he was diligently preparing for the palace exam, they understood a bit more.

Ye Zi'an had ranked first in the exam, the outcome of the palace exam was still uncertain, but the top three rankings were definitely secured, though it was not known which one he would place in.
