Chu Heng naturally knew that the empress’ death would not affect the provincial examination.
The empress’ health was not good to begin with, so the emperor and his subjects had long been mentally prepared.
However, Jing City was very chaotic at this time.
From the empress’ death to the following five years, the officials in Jing City would be changed. Many loyal officials and good generals would be implicated… Chu Heng did not know if his arrangements would work.
Chu Heng was a little lost in thought.

She bit her lip and felt sorry for him. She hesitated for a moment before comforting him softly, “Even if it will affect us, we’ll have to wait for another three years at the very least. However, I’ve seen the Great Chu Law before. Usually, the exam will be delayed by a year or even not in this situation. So, you can be more open-minded. We can still prepare more before taking the exam. Anyway, as long as you can pass the exam, it doesn’t matter if we wait a year or a year earlier. It’s better than failing the exam, where you would have to wait another three years.”
“Now that we don’t lack money at home, you can take as long as you want.”
As Ye Muyu spoke, she slowly realized that the surroundings were a little quiet.
When she looked up, she realized that both Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo were too scared to speak. Chu Heng was looking at her with a frown. She did not know what he was thinking.
Ye Muyu instantly felt that what she had just said might be nonsense. She was hesitating whether he should ask Chu Heng about the situation.
Madam Hu brought the dishes over.
Ye Muyu stood up abruptly.
A hand reached out and pulled her down.
“Ouch…” Ye Muyu let out a soft cry.
Chu Heng had already pulled her hand closer. With the help of the light in the room, he could clearly see the back of her slightly red hand. He suddenly looked up at Madam Hu. A hint of anger flashed in his eyes. “What’s going on?”
“Why are you scaring Madam Hu? Their hands are swollen too.” Ye Muyu patted her hand lightly.
Chu Heng was strong, but he was afraid of hurting her, so he let go.
Ye Muyu withdrew her hand and gently said to Madam Hu, “Madam Hu, you can go down and eat.”

“Yes, Madam.” Madam Hu glanced at Chu Heng, and seeing that he did not object, she slowly retreated.
Chu Ziluo carefully looked at the angry Chu Heng. She did not know why her father was angry. Could it be that she had gone overboard with her question? Chu Jin had already entered a state of lingering fear. He swallowed his saliva and pretended to eat, only glancing at Chu Heng from tto time.
Seeing that his father did not bully his mother, he naturally did not say anything. It would be best if his father ignored his existence.
“How did this cabout?” Chu Heng’s gaze fell on the back of her hand.
Ye Muyu smiled. “This was when I was making the ink block in the afternoon. I had to beat the ink paste and got hit by the hammer. I’m still not familiar with it, or else I wouldn’t have hit myself.”
“Let’s not talk about me. Madam Hu, Zhang Shu, and Lu Chuan all helped me.
They were all injured more or less.”
“But it’s not serious. I’ll be fine in two or three days after applying smedicine.”
Ye Muyu did not care about her injuries. Who would not get hurt in life? Seeing that Chu Heng was still in a bad mood, she thought for a while and said, “Think about it. If I go to work and don’t get used to holding a hoe, my hands will get blisters. It’s the sprinciple.”
“Alright, let’s eat quickly. Otherwise, the food will get cold.”
Ye Muyu felt that she had to take good care of this man who had suffered a blow in the provincial examination and show him more concern. After thinking about it, she picked up sfood for him first..
