It was only when they reached the city gates that they heard today was the day the results of the prefectural examination would be announced.
Originally, she had planned to go directly to the place Zhao Jing was renting. After he and De'an had found a place to stay, they had sent two letters home, so she knew their exact address.

She wouldn't find anyone at their small courtyard now, so she decided to come straight to where the results were being posted.
"Jing and De'an must be waiting for the announcement. It's fifty-fifty whether De'an passes, but Jing is a sure thing. When you go over, it'll just make him even happier."
And so, here they were.
But the place was an absolute sea of people, packed so tightly you couldn't get through.
Even though Chen Song and his two brothers were in their official uniforms, no one made way for them.
The crowd passively shoved them forward several steps before they managed to struggle to a stop.
