Gu Feiyan nervously waited.

Very soon, the Great Pharmacist once again raised his brush and wrote down the words 'Jia Shen'.

The word 'Jia Shen' represents the month. In the year of Geng Yin, Jia Shen was the seventh month.

What a coincidence, the original owner was also born in the seventh month. The year and month were matched!

Gu Feiyan became even more nervous. She unconsciously clenched her hands, forgetting the pain from the wound on them. Her dream seemed to have come a little closer to reality. Her extravagant hopes had turned into hope!

The Great Pharmacist didn't delay any further. He quickly wrote two words on the paper, "Wu Xu!"

In the seventh month of Geng Yin, Wu Xu was the seventh day .

The seventh day of the seventh month?

"The seventh day of the seventh month!" Gu Feiyan mumbled to herself as her big eyes lit up. The original owner was born on the seventh day of the seventh month during the Double Seventh Festival.

She had actually matched the day, month and year! In other words, if the timing was the same, then she would become the candidate to be sent to the Prince Jing's Manor!

Gu Feiyan was so nervous that her body tensed up. She didn't care if there were people born on the seventh day of the seventh month beside her. She stared at the Great Pharmacist's brush, waiting for the final result.

In the silence, the Great Pharmacist wrote down the last hour of the eight characters and let Shangguan Yinghong showed it to everyone.

The last two words were, "Bing Chen."

Bing Chen!

The original owner was born at the same time!

Oh my god!

The words Geng Yin, Jia Shen, Wu Xu, and Bing Chen were exactly the same as the original owner's birth date! The words she had just written were the same.

Gu Feiyan was so excited that her heart missed a beat. She did not dare to believe it, but at the same time she was afraid it was not true.

She stood in the same spot with a dazed look on her face, but her emotions had already been violently surging, and she was unable to calm down.

At this moment, Eunuch Man opened his mouth and said, "Hur Hur, which one’s birthdate eight characters are exactly the same as these must know who they are. However, we still have to follow the rules and check them one by one to show fairness. "

It was only after hearing this that Gu Feiyan realized that there might be more than one candidate. In other words, there might be people born at the same time as the original owner.

There were very few people who were born at the same time, but there had never been anything absolute in this world. Gu Feiyan's heart once again skipped a beat. Her excited mood suddenly turned to one of nervousness, even more so than before.

Her status was too embarrassing. If there was another choice, the Prince Jing wouldn't have chosen her.

As for the outcome, she could only wait.

In the silence, Eunuch Man slowly started flipping through the thick stack of slips in his hands and began reading the names one by one, comparing them to the eight characters.

"Zuo An An, no."

"Xia Xiaomeng, that's not it either …"

"Huan Lan... No."

"Lin Xiao Bu … No... No... That's not it either!"

Not only did Eunuch Man check them himself, he even passed the names to the Great Pharmacist for review. After the Great Pharmacist finished reading, he hesitated for a moment before handing the slips to Shangguan Yinghong for inspection for the third time. In this way, the entire selection process seemed to be rigorous, open, and impartial.

List after list of names was constantly rejected. Soon, a large stack of names was passed. Gradually, many people began to talk among themselves, suspecting that the words' medicine girl's birth 'did not meet the requirements.

"Gu Feiyan..."

Eunuch Man suddenly read Gu Feiyan's name.

Gu Feiyan, who was keeping her head down, subconsciously looked up. However, other than her, the surrounding medicine girls turned a deaf ear to this name. Even Princess Huaining only shot a disdainful glance at Gu Feiyan, not taking her seriously.

Unexpectedly, Eunuch Man did not reject the name as he had done before. Instead, he looked at the name list in his hands and did not say anything for a long time.

Could it be...

At this time, everyone became nervous. Princess Huaining asked anxiously, "Xia Xiaoman, what are you looking at? Say something!"

"Reporting to the princess, Gu Feiyan’s eight characters …"

Eunuch Man furrowed his brows, a complicated expression on his face. He wanted to say something but hesitated and passed the name list in his hand to the Great Pharmacist. The Great Pharmacist looked at her seriously. His frown was locked tighter than Eunuch Man, and his expression was even more complicated than Eunuch Man.

"Nangong Qingyun, speak!"

Princess Huaining was getting anxious. However, the Great Pharmacist looked at Princess Huaining helplessly and handed the list to Shangguan Yinghong, "Please check it again, Master Shangguan."

A look of incredulity appeared on Princess Huaining's face, and the surrounding people were also shocked. Shangguan Yinghong had already seen the names on the list. She did not furrow her brows nor did she have a complicated expression on her face. Instead, she was completely dumbfounded and could not recover from her shock even after a long while.

Princess Huaining was finally angry, "Shangguan Yinghong, what are you waiting for? Speak! "

Only then did Shangguan Yinghong recover. Only, she did not speak immediately, she did not dare!

The Qi family had invested so much into this damn girl that the father and son duo of the Qi family were still kneeling in the imperial study room and hadn't left yet! Princess Huaining was even more so unafraid of criticism. She personally came to beg for help, wanting this damned girl to live a life worse than death!

Now, Gu Feiyan had actually become the candidate for the medicine woman of Prince Jing's estate.

This …

Princess Huaining quickly stood up and strode towards Shangguan Yinghong, snatching the name list from her hands.

At this moment, the quiet courtyard seemed to have turned into a silent world.

After an unknown amount of time, Princess Huaining raised her head and looked at Gu Feiyan. Her eyes narrowed into a straight line and were filled with deep hatred.

Everything was extremely obvious.

Even if Princess Huaining hadn't mentioned it, everyone was certain that Gu Feiyan was the candidate.

Gu Feiyan had always known what was going on. What she was nervously waiting about was not her own name, but someone else's.

Even though she was extremely nervous, she did not show any sign of fear when Princess Huaining looked at her with hatred. Instead, she gave Princess Huaining a provocative smile.

She didn't care if there were other candidates or not.

If death was the only option left to her, then she might as well enjoy it before she died!

If there was only one way out, then she would definitely take back all the humiliation she had suffered today. It would be a provocation … So what?

Gu Feiyan smiled and said loudly, "Princess Huaining, are you going to announce the name of the candidate for Master Shangguan?"

Princess Huaining was angry to begin with, so she squeezed Gu Feiyan's slip into a ball.

Gu Feiyan was still smiling, but she did not stop her. She knew that someone would naturally stop her.

As expected, Eunuch Man became anxious. "Princess, His Highness Prince Jing is still waiting for this servant at his palace. I hope that the princess will give some face to His Highness and give some convenience to this servant. "

The words of Eunuch Man sounded polite, but he was actually reminding Princess Huaining not to interfere with the affairs of Prince Jing's Palace. Princess Huaining was well aware of the situation. She shouted angrily, "Since Jingwang-gege is waiting, why don't you quickly check the rest of the list!? There might not only be one candidate! "

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Eunuch Man nodded his head again and again, but didn't immediately check the name list. Instead, he said, "Princess, according to the rules, Medicine Girl Gu’s birthdate was announced. This list will still have to be handed to His Highness Prince Jing for inspection. "

Gu Feiyan could not help but burst out laughing. It was not a forced laugh, nor was it a provocation, but a truly happy laugh. Princess Huaining was so angry that her face turned green. She threw the paper in her hand to Eunuch Man...
