The baked cakes that had been in the test basket for two days were already a little dry, Gu Jin broke the baked cakes and ate them with water, they were dry and tasteless, but they could withstand hunger.

The third is practical strategy, the topic of the strategy is the strategy of governing the river, Gu Jin's eyes lit up when she saw this topic, she had practiced this topic, and she had done a lot of homework on it.

In recent years, the Huang and Huai areas have been flooded, and the examiner of this department is Wang Jie, a scholar of Dongge University, who is still the chief master of the study, and is a rare upright and very pragmatic person.

After hearing that this person was an examiner, Gu Jin carefully studied the major events in various places in recent years, among which the flood problem was the most headache for the imperial court, Gu Jin checked many books and inquired with people, and finally finally had some understanding of the main trunk of the Huanghuai Basin, the branches, various water systems, lakes, dams along the way, humanities and other things.

There is a splendid treasure hidden in the belly, and the pen is like a god, Gu Jin lifts the pen, brushes a little bit, and the whole policy is completed in one go, and there is no need to transcribe it at all, but this original manuscript is already a pearl of words, and the literary style is flying.

These three days are extremely long for many people, but for others it is fleeting, and the candidates walk out of the examination room with full exhaustion, some laughing, some crying, some beating their chests, and some blushing.

After Gu Jin came out of the examination room, he saw Wang Yu waiting at the door, Wang Yu was also embarrassed, but his spirit was fine, he craned his head and looked in, and he grinned when he saw Gu Jin.

"Brother Gu, here, here," Wang Yu shouted.

Gu Jin also smiled, for Wang Yu Gu Jin has changed from rejection to closeness now, she has no friends since she was a child, she still has a lot of scruples, but now she doesn't want to care so much, she also wants to have three or five confidants, drink and talk, talk loudly, gallop and whip, and the young spirit should be like this.

"How did Brother Wang do in the exam?" When he got closer, Gu Jin asked Wang Yu with a smile.

"Not bad!" Wang Yu said with a little smugness.

Wang Yu is a gentleman, Wang Yu has always been very humble on weekdays, and if he can say these two words today, it shows that Wang Yu is very good in the exam.

Wang Yu's good performance in the exam is actually very disadvantageous for Gu Jin, but Gu Jin is not worried that she will be surpassed by Wang Yu, she is sincerely happy for Wang Yu from the bottom of her heart, even if the position of Xie Yuan is taken by Wang Yu, Gu Jin will not complain at all.

If she loses, then her skills are not as good as others, she has tried her best, and she has no regrets.

"How did you do on the test?" Wang Yu also asked Gu Jin.

"It's not bad!" Gu Jin said with a smile, and winked playfully.

Both of them burst out laughing, and the laughter attracted the sideways glances of many candidates, some of whom were envious and some were jealous.

Being able to laugh so loudly at this time means that you are confident, and compared to your own sluggishness, it is really depressing.

The most angry is naturally Zuo Hongwen, who just came out of the Gongyuan, Zuo Hongwen did not do well in the exam, before he thought that his father was the main exam, so he abandoned his study, but followed a group of Xiucai to chant poems every day, he enjoyed the pursuit of others, who knew that in the end he was poured a basin of cold water on his head.

In a bad mood and without much preparation, Zuo Hongwen felt that he had done extremely badly in the exam, and at this time, seeing Gu Jin and the two laughing happily, he was even more hateful and wanted to crush his teeth.

"Brother Zuo, why should he be familiar with them, compared to Brother Zuo, they are just a pair of straw bales, don't look at them laughing, and there are times when they cry!" Someone is good at meeting the world of patting horses, Zuo Hongwen's face is not good, so he came up diligently to persuade him.

Although Zuo Hongwen's father was punished, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and it was naturally a lot of benefits to be able to have a good relationship with Zuo Hongwen.

Who knew that the man's fart slapped on the horse's leg, Zuo Hongwen glanced at the man, and then flicked his sleeves and left, leaving the man alone in the same place, his face was not embarrassed.

Although Zuo Hongwen is arrogant, he also knows Wang Yu's ability, he must have failed the test in this subject, if Wang Yu really understands Yuan, then his face will be lost.

Even Gu Jin can't do it, for Gu Jin, his dislike is even worse than Wang Yu.

can't let these two people win, and he won't let go of any of them.

Gu Jin chatted with Wang Yu for a few days and then got into the Wang family's carriage, the carriage sent Gu Jin back to the inn first, and then Wang Yu also hurried home.

The family must be waiting, and he can make his father and mother feel at ease if he goes back early.

Gu Jin entered the inn, Liu Bao had been waiting for her for a long time, and when he saw that Gu Jin was dirty, Liu Bao sent the prepared bath bucket to Gu Jin's room, and prepared the meal, just waiting for Gu Jin to eat after taking a bath.

The hot water washed away the fatigue of the past three days, and Gu Jin, who had washed cleanly, only felt relaxed all over, Gu Jin did not twist her hair, and let her hair be wet and draped behind her, she chatted with Liu Bao while eating, and Liu Bao was the first thing to say about Han Dongqiu.

Han Dongqiu is really miserable, Gu Jin took the test for three days, Han Dongqiu was put on a shackle and swam the street for three days, and after every day of the street, Han Dongqiu was pressed by the officers and soldiers to kneel at the gate of the tribute courtyard.

At first, Han Dongqiu would shout injustice and scold Gu Jin, but after being slapped a few times by the officers and soldiers and knocking out two teeth, Han Dongqiu was completely honest.

He is no longer a showman, he has no fame, where will these soldiers respect him, now he is just a plain clothes, he used to look down on the title of Xiucai, but now that title is out of his reach.

A person who has been stripped of his fame can no longer participate in the imperial examination, which means that he will have to be an inferior person he looks down on for the rest of his life.

How sad Han Dongqiu's heart was, how much he hated Gu Jin, in just three days, he had become black and thin when he was once white and fat, Liu Bao went to see Han Dongqiu at the gate of the Gongyuan once, Liu Bao only felt that Han Dongqiu was like a different person, those eyes were numb and vicious, and Liu Bao's back was cold.

"Gu Xiucai, you have to be careful of him, but don't suffer his loss!" Liu Bao said to Gu Jin worriedly.

Gu Jin nodded, Liu Bao's words were reasonable, she still valued her own life very much, she would naturally be careful.

"Is Han Dongqiu back?" Gu Jin asked.

"Not yet, I inquired, and said that he would only be released after the autumn season was over, and he might still be kneeling there!" Liu Bao replied.

"How is Huang Tao?" Gu Jin asked again.

"Alas!" Liu Bao sighed.

"I have taken care of Huang Xiucai for the past few days, and I didn't take those decoctions, Huang Xiucai's illness is not worse, but also, "

Liu Bao couldn't bear it, although he hated Huang Xiucai, but he was also worried when he saw Huang Xiucai like that.
