The sky was dark, and even though there were many lanterns hung around the Gongyuan, the light was still very hazy. After Jiang Mingyue quietly followed her husband for more than ten steps, he could no longer be seen.

Jiang Minghong walked to his sister's side and supported her: "Sister, let's go back!"

Jiang Mingyue stretched her neck and glanced several times in the direction Xie Yuan left, before leaving with her younger brother and Yong Si.

In the crowd, Xie Yuan was carrying a test basket and a bag, following closely behind the team waiting for inspection and roll call.

He arrived early, at the front of the queue, and it was his turn soon.

Compared with the college examination and the provincial examination, the inspection in the college examination was much looser. The guards did not crush the dry food and inspect them one by one, nor did they ask the students to take off their clothes.

After making sure there was nothing on their bodies, test baskets, or bags, they were sent to the second inspection.

Candidates who take part in the examination are all candidates with real talents and knowledge. Even if they fail the exam this time and do not plan to take the exam again in the future, they are still qualified to become officials.

Fraud in the imperial examination will not only result in the expulsion of the title, but will also implicate the whole family and be exiled thousands of miles away. The candidates will not risk their own future or the safety of the whole family. The reason for cheating is too unworthy.

After Xie Yuan passed the second inspection and waited for the roll call, he found his dormitory by number.

The dormitory was very narrow, with only one table and benches. Xie Yuan put down the test basket and baggage, and the whole dormitory suddenly became crowded.

After going through the provincial examination, Xie Yuan quickly adapted to the current environment.

This year belongs to Enke, so I chose August when the climate is the most comfortable. You should know that in previous years, the exam was held in February, when the weather was cold and the dormitory was humid, which was very challenging. This group of candidates has caught up with them at a good time.

Xie Yuan simply tidied up the dormitory, put the chopping board and bench together, spread a layer of blankets, lay on it and covered himself with clothes. He plugged his ears with cotton and closed his eyes very presciently.

As the candidates entered the venue one after another, there were gradually sounds from the surrounding dormitories, but these had little impact on Xie Yuan, so he had already fallen asleep.

In Qingshi Hutong, Jiang Mingyue and the other three returned home and went back to their houses. After all, it was still early before dawn.

She lay on the bed again and her thoughts were all about Xie Yuan. She didn't know whether he had entered the dormitory or what he was doing now. She fell asleep again thinking about it.

In the Gongyuan, various sounds kept ringing, until a trace of light appeared on the horizon, and the surrounding area became quiet.

Outside the Gongyuan, Shen Jiaoniang saw all the students entering the examination room, turned around and left with the vegetable basket in hand.

Not long after she left, Chen Fugui came out of the darkness. He looked at the closed door of Gongyuan and pondered for a moment before going to the Yamen.

In the dormitory, Xie Yuan opened his eyes after sleeping again.

He got up and moved around a little in the dormitory. After feeling comfortable both physically and mentally, he packed up his blanket and clothes and sat down to wait for his hair to be curled.

In the nine days, the exam was divided into three sessions, and each exam lasted three days. After this exam was completed and the papers were collected, the next exam was immediately followed, and today was the first and most important exam.

Xie Yuan still remembers that he was nervous and uneasy during the provincial examination, but now maybe four years have passed, maybe he has experienced too many things while traveling, maybe his wish has come true and he married his beloved woman, and now he is Very peaceful mind.

The gongs and drums sounded, and the officers handed out papers. After Xie Yuan took the papers, he began to look at them. The questions in the joint examination were actually not much different from those in the provincial examination.

In Xie Yuan's view, the biggest difference in this exam is the students. The provincial exam is compared with students in the prefecture.

The General Examination is a gathering of talents from all over the world. It is very difficult to stand out among the many candidates, so you must be extra careful and cautious when answering the exam.

After Xie Yuan finished reading the paper, he calculated the time before answering the questions.

In Qingshi Hutong, it was already midnight when Jiang Mingyue woke up again. Since Qi Yongsi only took one day off, after the three of them had breakfast, Jiang Mingyue and her brother personally sent him out of the alley.

After watching Qi Yongsi ride away, Jiang Mingyue turned to look at her brother: "When will you come back?"

"I will stay with my sister for two more days."

As the two siblings walked home, Jiang Mingyue said: "Don't delay your studies, I have Grandma Gui and Apple here!

Furthermore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I have no plans to leave the house until your brother-in-law leaves the examination room, so you can rest assured. "

"Not only to accompany my sister, I'm also planning to meet my aunt."

Jiang Minghong turned his head and looked at Jiang Mingyue and said, "Sister, do you want to come with me?"

Jiang Mingyue thought that she and Chen Juan had started walking around, and it was indeed time to meet Shen Jiaoniang.

"Okay, you make the arrangements!"

"How about I invite my aunt out tomorrow and we sit together and have a meal together?" Jiang Minghong discussed with his sister.

Jiang Mingyue nodded lightly.

At the same time in Yuanjiang Mansion, Song Wan came out of the room, looked at Shen Mo who had not yet gone out, walked to him and sat down beside him and said warmly: "Are you worried about Zijing?"

Shen Mo turned around and held Song Wan's hand.

"I really can't hide anything from you."

Song Wan comforted him and said: "Anxin, with Zijing's talent, he will definitely be on the list."

Shen Mo nodded and looked at Song Wan: "After Zijing reaches high school, how about letting him come to Yuanjiang Mansion?"

Song Wan chuckled lightly.

"No wonder you still don't want me to tell the emperor what's going on here. That was the original idea."

She paused and then spoke in a sour tone: "You are very fond of Zijing. If I hadn't known that you two are not related by blood, I would have doubted whether he was the illegitimate son you had with another woman."

“If he was really my son, I would definitely put him on the family tree as soon as possible.

However, although he is not my son, the difference is not big. Among all my disciples, he is the only one who is in a more difficult situation, so I naturally have to make more plans for him. "

"Zijing is indeed a very talented person, but are you sure he can handle things here?"

Shen Mo looked at the person in front of him.

"If you're willing to leave him a few people, he can."

Song Wan snorted lightly.

"I didn't expect you to have your thoughts on me."

Shen Mo held her hand tightly.

"We are one. You are his master wife, so you should help him."

Song Wan smiled when she heard this. She liked hearing this.

"Okay! Then I'll give him four people."

"atmosphere!"

Shen Mo praised her and said, "Pack your things, we have stayed here long enough, it's time to leave."

The Holy One has found out their whereabouts. If they still stay here, more and more attention will be drawn here, which would be bad.

"Go? Where?"

"Have you always wanted to visit Yuecheng? Our next stop will be Yuecheng."

"to make!"

Just when the two decided to leave Yuanjiang Mansion, Jiang Wen was a little absent-minded when dealing with things. After making several mistakes in a row, he simply put down what he was doing and looked in the direction of Kyoto.
