Yanhuang College's exam was divided into two parts. In the morning, it was a combined exam for Classics and Morality. In the afternoon, it was a single subject exam for Mathematics. The duration of the exam was four hours (four hours).
The questions for the Classics section were set by Li Gang and Li Zexuan. Li Zexuan had repeatedly instructed them to lower the difficulty and not set any tricky questions. Of course, the two old men were unwilling at first, but Li Zexuan kept persuading them, so they could only agree in the end.
The questions for the Morality and Mathematics section were, of course, set by Li Zexuan himself. He had already given out the test papers five days ago.
After the printing, all the test papers were guarded by Wu Hou 24 hours a day in the workshop. There was no way that the questions would be leaked in advance.
Now, everything was ready. All that was left was the east wind ~!
… … …
The next day, when Chang 'an City's East Gate opened, thousands of examinees who had been waiting at the city gate for a long time filed out. They carried their test boxes (the schoolbags used by the ancient people) and walked in groups of three to five toward Yanhuang College.
Of course, some examinees from rich families rode horses and carriages. Some examinees were accompanied by their relatives. In order to make it in time for Yanhuang College's exam, all the examinees gathered here. In an instant, the streets near the East Gate became unusually congested.
Chang 'an City's Wu Hou was also on guard. Yuchi Jingde didn't even attend the morning court and personally commanded. Most of the Wu Hou Mansion's Wu Hou Mansion's Wu Hou Mansion were transferred here to ease the congestion.
"Sigh ~! I didn't expect there to be so many students. Little Xuan's Yanhuang College is quite successful ~! My Baolin should be able to get in, right ~? "
Yuchi Jingde was dressed in martial attire and stood on a nearby tower. Looking at the dense crowd below, he was both melancholy and happy ~!
… … …
Di Mansion, backyard.
Bang, bang ~!
"Young Master ~! Young Master ~! You should get up and have breakfast ~! "
Butler Zhong gently knocked on the door and shouted inside.
A moment later, a voice came from inside. "Uncle Zhong, I'm not eating ~! Being locked up in the residence every day is like being in jail. How can I have the mood to eat ~! "
Hearing this, Butler Zhong hurriedly knocked on the door again and said, "Little Young Master, you didn't eat last night. Master is very angry. When he left this morning, he specifically told this old man to let you eat some rice no matter what. Please don't make things difficult for this old man, and don't starve your body!"
In the room, Di Zhixun's voice sounded a little impatient. He said, "Uncle Zhong, don't try to persuade me. I'm really not hungry. Please don't bother me. Let me sleep for a while. Since I can't get out, are you not going to let me sleep ~? "
Hearing this obviously childish words, Butler Zhong sighed helplessly. "Young Master, this old man also wants you to leave, but no one dares to disobey Master's orders! Besides, you can leave the residence as you wish tomorrow. Come out and eat something ~! "
"Hmph! Uncle Zhong, you know what I'm thinking. What's the use of me going out tomorrow? Take it away quickly. I won't eat it. Also, ask all the servants in the backyard to leave. Don't disturb my sleep. Otherwise … if I really make a scene, no one will have a good time ~! "
Hearing the extremely impatient tone in Di Zhixun's voice, Butler Zhong hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, okay. This old man will leave now. Ask them to leave too. Young Master, if you're hungry, call me at any time ~!"
After that, the old butler quickly left with the food box. This was because he knew that Di Zhixun was right. If he really made a scene, everyone in the residence would suffer. As long as Di Zhixun could be quiet and everyone was safe and sound, Butler Zhong would be satisfied ~!
"Hey! These people are finally all gone ~! "
In the room, Di Zhixun muttered excitedly as he watched Butler Zhong instruct all the servants to leave the backyard through the crack of the door.
Looking at this guy's dressing, all his clothes were neat and tidy. He didn't look like someone who had just woken up ~! Obviously, what he said just now was all a lie ~!
"Alas ~! This is my last chance. Ancestors of the Di family, please bless me, Di Zhixun ~! "
Di Zhixun clasped his hands together and muttered a few words softly. Then, he turned around, took a bundle from the table, and left the room.
When he arrived at the courtyard, he walked straight to the northwest corner. There was a huge rock that was half the height of a person there. Di Zhixun looked around worriedly. When he saw that there was no one around, he heaved a sigh of relief and muttered to himself, "Hey ~! Fortunately, no one noticed that there was an extra rock here. Otherwise, if they reported it to my father, the old man would be suspicious again ~! "
Shaking his head, Di Zhixun leaped onto the huge rock. Then, he used all his strength to finally climb up the wall. Looking at the bluestone floor outside the wall, Di Zhixun gritted his teeth and jumped down …
"Ouch ~! Ouch, ouch, ouch ~! Ouch ~! "
The Di family's wall was almost ten feet high. It would be strange if Di Zhixun didn't get hurt when he jumped down like that. Di Zhixun hugged his right foot. His eyes and eyebrows were in pain. He sucked in cold air as he pressed on his right ankle.
"Ouch ~! This won't do ~! There's not much time left. I have to go to Yanhuang College as soon as possible ~! Otherwise, this jump will be in vain ~! "
Thinking of this, Di Zhixun endured the pain and stood up. Then, he limped toward the gate.
"Hey, hey, hey ~! The big brother in front, wait up ~! "
The more Di Zhixun walked, the more difficult it was for him to walk. The piercing pain in his ankle made him sweat all over. Just when he was about to give up, he saw a middle-aged man driving a flatbed cart pass by him. His heart stirred and he hurriedly yelled out, "Hey, hey!
"Young Master, are you calling me ~?"
The middle-aged man heard him and hurriedly reined in the old horse that was pulling the cart. He turned around and asked.
Di Zhixun used the last bit of his strength to catch up with the middle-aged man. He took out a golden leaf and said, "Big brother, I accidentally hurt my foot just now. Now, I have something urgent to do. Can you sell this horse to me? The price is negotiable ~!"
At this time, he obviously didn't care about whether it was worth it or not. He could only get to Yanhuang College in time if he had a horse to ride. As for money, his family wasn't that short of money ~!
"Ah ~? Young Master, you can't do that ~! This horse is an old one. It's specially used to pull goods. It's not worth much. Young Master, your foot injury is so serious. Even if you ride a horse, it won't be easy. Why don't you tell me where you want to go? I'll drive you there ~! "
The middle-aged man saw the golden leaf shining in Di Zhixun's hand and quickly waved his hand.
Di Zhixun didn't expect the man in front of him to be so straightforward. He smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, big brother. If you send me to Yanhuang College outside the city, I'll definitely thank you ~!"
