The next day, Xie Yanqing and the others got up early, and after eating breakfast together, they left the inn and divided into two roads and walked in two directions.

Xie Yanqing and Xie Dawei's luggage was still in the inn, and they were going to Fucheng Rental Bank to rent a carriage. It is a long way to go to the provincial capital, and it is more convenient to take a carriage.

This time to the provincial capital Xie Dawei They planned to go with the dart team instead of the caravan, after all, the caravan's speed was really slow, Xie Yanqing wanted to get to the provincial capital as soon as possible, so that there was a stable place for him to study, and he felt that he still had a lot of knowledge to learn.

Although this world can be said to be peaceful now, Xie Yanqing and Xie Dawei still don't dare to go on the road alone, if something happens, they really can't afford it, so they would rather spend more money and spend more time to go to the provincial capital with the dart team.

The dart team was found by Xie Dawei a long time ago, and it was agreed that he would leave for the provincial capital at 9 o'clock in the morning.

Xie Yanqing and Xie Dawei easily rented a carriage, and after wearing out their tongues with the coachman and hearing that they were traveling with the dart team, the coachman finally agreed to take them to the provincial capital for 3 taels of silver a day.

Xie Dawei and them arrived at the place agreed with the dart team, and after waiting for a while, the dart team began to move forward, after all, everyone wanted to hurry up to the provincial capital.

They took the official road, and by evening, the dart team had not been able to reach the town, so tonight Xie Yanqing and they had to rest for the night in an open flat field.

Generally, when walking with the dart team, the dart team will arrange the vigil personnel, so when they don't encounter a lot of thieves or sudden danger, Xie Dawei They don't need to worry about anything at all, just sleep well, after all, they paid the money to ask the dart team to protect their personal safety.

When Xie Yanqing got out of the car, he saw a group of students dressed as students sitting in a group not far away, talking about something.

During this special period, as long as the reader is in a hurry, it will attract the attention of others. Since Xie Yanqing was also wearing a student shirt, even if he didn't get into that group of students, he still attracted attention.

"Could it be that you, a boy, are also going to the provincial capital to take the college exam?" Chen Zhi looked at Xie Yanqing, who was five short statures, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Dare to ask who this brother is? The younger brother Xie Yanqing is going to take the hospital exam this time. Xie Yanqing politely bowed his hand, his age is still too eye-catching.

"You are our 10-year-old prodigy Xie Yanqing, who is the eleventh in the palace? I am the tenth place in this government exam, Chen Zhi. As soon as he heard Xie Yanqing's answer, Chen Zhi said enthusiastically.

"Yes, the little brother is Xie Yanqing. But I can't afford the name of the little prodigy, this brother praised it falsely. ”

"Where can't you bear it? You can pass the government exam at the age of 10, isn't this a prodigy? Yan Qing, don't be humble anymore. Chen Zhi laughed. This is a famous person. He is only ten years old, and he still came out of a remote mountain village, and he has not received a good education, but he can get the eleventh place in this government examination, and some people have long wanted to see him.

"Our names are next to each other on the list of the government exam, and this time we have the opportunity to go to the provincial capital together, we are really fateful." Chen Zhi said with a smile.

"It's full of students who are going to take the college exam, why don't you get to know each other?" Chen Zhi invited Xie Yanqing.

Xie Yanqing thought that there would inevitably be exchanges along the way, and they were both students who were going to take the college exam, so it should be necessary to get to know them, so he readily agreed, and followed Chen Zhi to the place where the group of students gathered.

Seeing that Chen Zhi came back with such a little doll, everyone was very curious.

Xie Yanqing stepped forward to introduce himself and said, "Little brother Xie Yanqing is also a student who is going to the provincial capital to take the college examination, please take care of you along the way." ”

After hearing Xie Yanqing's words, there was a commotion in the crowd, this is the legendary 10-year-old little prodigy, but he was still unwilling after taking the government exam, and he wanted to go to the academy to take the exam? It's too self-conscious.

You must know that there is a big difference between the hospital examination and the government examination, the government examination is still the test questions issued by the local prefect, the content is quite simple, as long as you are familiar with the four books and five classics, and then involve some miscellaneous books, it is very likely to pass.

The college examination is a question of many great Confucians, to pass the emperor's eye, sometimes the emperor is interested in coming out of a few questions, the college examination questions are very in-depth and involve a wide range, and the college examination also has to write a strategy and eight strands, which is a ten-year-old child can participate.

It seems that this so-called prodigy should be overly inflated by false fame, after all, he passed the government exam at the age of ten, so he must be living in countless praises every day, how can he not make people think too highly of themselves and feel that they are the best in the world?
