After being cramped in the cell for three days, Jia Huan felt that his whole body was going rancid.
He took a quick bath and had a delicious meal.
Then Yuanyang came to the door and asked: "Third Master, our ancestors asked you to come over."
Jia Huan smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Yuanyang, for making this trip. Let's go quickly and don't keep our ancestors waiting."
Not long after, Jia Huan came to Rongqing Hall. Jia Huan first paid his respects to Jia Mu: "My grandson, I would like to pay my respects to our ancestors."
Jia Mu said quickly: "Get up quickly and come to me. Let me take a good look."
Jia Huan had no choice but to walk up to Jia Mu. Jia Mu took Jia Huan's hand and said, "You little man, now that you have passed the National Examination, it will be hard for you!"
"Brother Huan, how did you do in the exam this time? Are you confident that you can be the first in high school?"
Jia Huan smiled and said: "Old ancestor, there are three exams in total, and this is just the first one. You won't know whether you did well or not until you finish the three exams."
At this time, Lin Daiyu said with a smile: "Grandma, don't be deceived by Brother Huan. No matter how good he is in the exam, he will never say that he did well in the exam."
"Now I have concluded that as long as Brother Huan doesn't say he didn't do well in the exam, he must have done extremely well in the exam. In this subject, Brother Huan must be able to go to high school. If he fails, grandma will just settle the score with Brother Huan. That’s it.”
Jia Huan laughed at the side and said: "This is strange again. You obviously said that I would win, but I didn't say it myself. Why do my ancestors want to settle accounts with me if I don't win? Shouldn't they be settling accounts with you?"
Lin Daiyu sneered and said: "Who said you didn't say a word of truth? Everyone thought you didn't win, but you came back with the top spot without saying a word."
After a few words, everyone laughed.
The room was full of joy, but Jia Baoyu's eyes were filled with resentment, feeling that the joy belonged to others, but he had nothing.
Jia Huan sat for a while and then left.
Jia's mother knew that since these three exams would last for more than ten days, Jia Huan would suffer a lot and would not be able to rest at all.
So he let him go.
Jia Huan went back to rest for a long time, then fell asleep.
After just resting, I got up in the middle of the night and went straight to the examination room for the second exam.
By this time, Jia Huan had been tested in the examination room for a long time and entered the examination room with ease. Then rest one night, wait until the test papers are handed out the next day, and start working on the questions.
There were no topics that he was familiar with on this day.
However, in the imperial examination, no matter which round it is, the score that counts the most is the first round.
As long as you do well in the first test, you won't be so nervous in the subsequent exams.
Therefore, Jia Huan calmed down and worked steadily.
Moreover, he also combined the temperaments of the two examiners and tried not to be unconventional or talk about reforms during the process of answering questions.
Although this is not in line with Jia Huan's original intention, it has to be done for the sake of the exam.
Fortunately, he had read too many articles by this time, and he had written countless articles.
I am familiar with various styles and arguments.
Three days passed by in a flash. Jia Huan handed in his papers and left the examination room.
Next, I returned to Jia’s house and repeated the same experience as last time.
Then after resting at home for a day, that evening, he went into the examination room again for the third examination.
There is no need to remember much about this exam.
Three days later, Jia Huan walked out of the examination room dizzy and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s not easy. Finally, the exam is over!
This time, Jia Huan was extremely hopeful that he could pass the exam.
This imperial examination is much more painful than the college entrance examination.
Jia Huan no longer wanted to go through this again.
As long as he can pass the exam this time, there will only be one palace exam next.
The imperial examination was held in the palace.
And it only takes one day to take the exam, so you won’t suffer as much as you would in the exam.
After leaving the examination room, just as Jia Huan was about to board the car, he heard two surprise greetings.
"Brother Jia, Brother Jia, I didn't expect to meet you here!"
When Jia Huan looked back, he found that the two people were Liu Changqing and Xu Shichang.
Oh, it turned out to be these two guys.
By the way, they won the exam together with him, so they would naturally take part in the examination, so it was not a surprise to meet them.
However, these two guys actually said hello after they accidentally bumped into me after the exam.
Have these two guys forgotten about me a long time ago? Not kind!
But thinking about it again, have I also forgotten the two of them?
It seemed to be the case. Thinking of this, Jia Huan felt balanced.
Jia Huan asked the two of them, "Brother Liu and Brother Xu, how did you do in the exam?"
Liu Changqing shook his head and said: "Anyway, I'm done. I don't know how it went in the exam. Just leave it to fate."
Xu Shichang said: "I'm quite satisfied with what I did. I performed to the level I should have. As for whether I can win, I don't know. What about you, Brother Jia?"
Jia Huan said: "The same applies to me. Anyway, we have finished the questions. Whether you can win or not depends entirely on God's will."
Xu Shichang smiled and said: "Brother Jia, you say this every time, but every time you are the best in high school! So far, Brother Jia has won four yuan in a row. If he wins four yuan in a row in high school this time, he will win five yuan in a row." "
"Tsk, tsk, when the time comes in the Jinluan Hall, Brother Jia will win the first prize again, that is, the sixth prize in high school! He is actually the number one person in our dynasty! Even if you look at the history books, he is a rare existence."
Jia Huan said with a smile: "I still don't know whether I'm going to win or not. How can Brother Xu be so exaggerated? I'm really tired today. Let's go home and rest first. When we have a good rest, I'll invite the two brothers to serve as hosts."
Liu Changqing and Xu Shichang smiled and said: "That's great, then we will wait for the news from Brother Jia."
Jia Huan said goodbye to the two of them, got into the carriage, and headed home directly.
This time, the exam was finally over and Jia Huan was no longer stressed.
He took a nice bath, then lay on the bed and had a long sleep.
I slept until dark before waking up. After dinner, I was called over by Jia Mu again.
This old lady really hopes that he can go to high school.
However, Jia Huan's answer was still the same as last time.
No matter how confident he was, Jia Huan would not make a promise casually.
Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of Jia Huan's mouth, Jia's mother had no choice but to wait patiently for the day when the results were released.
The results for those who have passed the general examination will be released at a slightly slower time, which is almost the same as the provincial examination.
Because there are not a few people taking the exam, there are more than 3,000 candidates taking the exam this time.
The number of people admitted to the general examination is about one out of ten, and about three hundred people can be admitted.
After trying it out, Jia Huan no longer needs to read Shi Wen and other books.
Once you are in high school, you will directly take the imperial examination. The palace examinations are all about policy theory.
Once you fail, you will have to wait another three years if you take the exam again.
Jia Huan's life returned to peace, but after the exam, he spent more time out and was not as diligent as before.
During this period, news came out of Dongfu that Jia Zhen was ill.
