A moment later, all 220 students came out of the examination hall.
The other students were nowhere to be seen. Currently, the only questions that outsiders could get were the Advancement questions.
The last student came out and looked at the others. He took the food from Heaven on Earth and ate it.
"Line up and count off." Li Yi shouted through the loudspeaker in his carriage.
The students were in groups of 10, 110 in a group. They quickly lined up.
"One, two, three … … ten."
"Reporting, ten people from our third squad have arrived. Ten people have arrived. End of report."
"Reporting, our first team has 110 people, and 110 people have arrived. End of report."
"Reporting, my second group … … reporting over."
All 220 students were present.
"Get in the car. Let's go home." Li Yi ordered.
The students got into the car. The car had already turned around. The convoy left under the protection of the Winged Knights.
The people outside the examination hall looked at each other. Were these the Advancement candidates?
Did they enter the wrong examination hall? They were needed for the Military Examination.
The students returned to Li Family Zhuangzi. Those with families were waiting for them. Only three families were empty.
The family members came forward to ask about the situation.
"I answered all of them. The questions were simple. Rites – Shen Yi, Fu Zhi – The Nation's Plentiful Year. As for the other topics, I practiced quite a bit."
"I will definitely pass. Don't worry."
"I wonder what Dongzhu will do after I become an official."
"In the future, I will learn from Dongzhu and teach the children how to read."
The students began to think about the future.
They knew very well that they had the mark of the Li family's manor that could not be erased.
At this time, they were not too excited. The questions for the Imperial Examination had been arranged in advance.
The truly amazing one was Dongzhu. His methods were impressive.
The families of the students were happy. Their loved ones being able to pass the Imperial Examination meant that one of their wishes had been fulfilled.
Their lives were comfortable now. They did not plan to move unless Dongzhu chased them out.
The Li Family Zhuangzi bought a large piece of land. There was work and a place to live.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Many people gathered at the entrance of the Imperial City.
Just like last year, everyone had their own plans.
The students of the Li Family Zhuangzi arrived with their families and lined up.
Song De took out the loudspeaker again and ran to the front under the protection of the Winged Knights. The others made way for him.
The names of the various departments were posted. Song De took out his binoculars and shouted as soon as the Advancement Department was posted.
"First place, Changshu County's Zhou Changyu. Congratulations to our Li Family Zhuangzi."
"Second place, Ma Jin from Wucheng County. Congratulations to my Zhuangzi student from the Li family."
"No.95, Neijiang Fan Chongkai. Congratulations … Eh? This is not a student from the Li Family Zhuangzi. Congratulations, Fan Chongkai. "
"No.200, Neijiang Fan Yuankai. Congratulations, Fan Yuankai. This name sounds very similar to Fan Chongkai's."
Song De's memory was very good. He could actually remember the names of the students from Zhuangzi High School and whether the names of the students were similar or not.
"260th place, Shanyang Luo Ou Chang. Congratulations, Luo Ou Chang."
"261st place, Shanyang Luo Ou Cheng. Congratulations."
"262nd place, Shanyang Luo Ou Xin. Congratulations."
"263rd place, Shanyang Luo Ou Jun. Congratulations. These four are your cousins, right?"
The four cousins stood at the back, next to the Li Family Zhuangzi High School's team.
"That's great. You've all passed. I'll hold a banquet for you in Heavenly Earth. Ah no, let's go to Drunken Immortal House."
Zhangsun Xin, who was an inspector in Lantian County, also came. He was so happy that he jumped up when he heard that his four aides had all passed.
He wanted to hold a banquet in Heavenly Earth, but he suddenly remembered that he had to line up and spend a lot of money. It was better to go back to Drunken Immortal House in the county.
"276th place, last place, Xiangyang Fan Lin. Congratulations to my Li Family Zhuangzi High School's student."
Song De read out the last place. The 220 students from Zhuangzi High School were all on the list.
The other 56 people were not few either.
"Woo ~ ~" Someone in the Li Family Zhuangzi High School's team cried. Fan Lin was crying.
"I've embarrassed the Li Family Zhuangzi High School. I'm actually last place, woo ~ ~ ~" Fan Lin cried miserably.
The people around him: "…"
The candidates from other subjects did not want to talk. Those who had passed the Higher School's exam had even lost interest in watching the list.
The Li Family Zhuangzi High School's team was comforting Fan Lin. They felt sad for him and sighed for him …
"Let's go back to Zhuangzi." Song De did not care about the others anymore. He turned around and asked everyone to go back.
The people from Zhuangzi High School left, leaving behind a large group of people who were in a bad mood.
"Is it like this every year?" Some students who had seen the list but did not pass wanted to cry.
"Next year, the Li Family Zhuangzi High School will be gone."
"There are still students working and living in Zhuangzi High School. They won't come again, right?"
"No. It's a pity that the Li Family Zhuangzi High School will never be able to enter again."
The students sighed again. Fortunately, they could always find something to do and could persist in staying in Chang 'an.
They did not complain about others taking their places. As long as they answered all the questions in the Higher School's exam, they would at least get first place.
Li Family Zhuangzi High School. Before noon, Li Longji High School's family of three arrived.
The little guy could stand on his own. Occasionally, he could hold onto something and take small steps. He was eleven months old.
His big eyes were bright. He did not cry or make a fuss. He would be in a daze after looking at something.
He would check his body and eat a cucumber strip.
"Third Brother, let's go to the river. Zhuangzi High School has cleaned up the river that flows from the Imperial Plantation. "
Li Yi took something first. He was not in a hurry to eat. At least the little guy was not hungry.
The group of people arrived at Zhuangzi High School's riverside. The merry-go-round could move again.
The child on Zhuangzi High School was playing there with someone watching over him.
A flatbed cart dragged a big goose made of wood over. The group of people used all their strength to slide the big goose into the water.
There were four seats on the big goose. Four people sat on three of them. The little guy was being held.
When the goose swayed, he looked at the water and suddenly giggled. Only God knew why he was so happy.
"There are places for feet to step on in all four positions. There are rollers on both sides of the goose. When the feet move, the rollers will rotate."
Li Yi sat down and kicked. The wheels on both sides of the goose rotated like a waterwheel.
He did not make the position of the big goose's wheels. It was easy for water to enter.
The wheels were placed in the middle of the boat. They were too big and slow.
Now, the wheels on both sides also had rudders under them. They could move forward and backward.
If he wanted to use the wheels to adjust the direction, he needed a one-sided axis. The left and right were not synchronized.
The three of them kicked. Li Yi controlled the rudder and the boat turned back and forth on the river.
The river was not wide enough. They could only go upstream and then downstream.
The little guy turned his head back and forth through the door and window. It was his first time on a boat. He did not care about the shaking.
"Ah, ha." The little guy made a single sound and pointed outside with his little hand.
When the boat turned around, he looked to the other side. After confirming the direction, he laughed again.
"There are small boats on Zhuangzi High School. There is also a boat that can be placed on the Baishui River to carry a hundred stones. It has four wheels."
Li Yi introduced another kind of boat. Like the boat now, with people on it, it can carry eight stones.
If it was heavier, the boat would enter the water.
"It's good on inland rivers." Empress Wang guessed where such a boat was suitable for use.
Li Yi nodded. "It's an inland river boat. Especially where it needs to be pulled, this boat can move forward slowly."
