Qin Guan's hot pot was confiscated.

The reason is to affect other candidates.

Even those mutton vegetables and even sesame sauce ingredients were taken away, Qin Guan seriously doubted that these patrol officials would take his hot pot for a supper or something at night.

Anyway, having eaten enough, Qin Guan decided to sleep.

Spreading out the futon, Qin Guan slept peacefully, while most of the other students lit candles, pulled their hair and tried to think about how to answer the question.

The next day, Qin Guan wrote another day's questions on scratch paper.

It's a pity that there is no hot pot today, Qin Guan can only ask for a pot of hot water and eat the braised vegetables and muffins he brought to satisfy his hunger.

The next night, Qin Guan went to bed early again, and in the middle of the night, he was suddenly awakened by a loud noise, and someone in the distance was roaring loudly like a madman, screaming non-stop, and after a while, the patrol officials ran in and scolded the students who got up: "Answer the questions that should answer, sleep when you should sleep, no one is allowed to make noise." ”

Qin Guan knew that it was likely that someone had been driven crazy by the imperial examination again.

During the day on the third day, although Qin Guan did not search his stomach and think hard like other candidates, he still felt very tired, and the feeling of being trapped in a small space alone also made Qin Guan very uncomfortable.

He finally knew why someone would go crazy.

In a narrow space, a claustrophobic environment can make people feel very uncomfortable and depressed, coupled with huge ideological pressure, those with weak minds are likely to go crazy.

"Bang Bang."

In the distance, there was the sound of cloud boards tapping.

A time announcer shouted: "There is still one last hour, please hurry up and answer the questions, the last hour." ”

At this time, someone next to him exclaimed: "Oh, why is it only an hour, I still have a question that I haven't thought about, no, write it down first." ”

“......”

"Boom!" The gong sounded.

"When the time for the exam comes, all candidates will stop answering, and if there is a violation, the result will be cancelled."

After a while, those collectors came over and began to collect the test papers, and they were confused on the spot, and Qin watched his test papers being put into the bamboo box, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

It's finally over.

Carrying his own things, as the flow of people walked out of the tribute courtyard, Qin Guan had a sense of relief, and as soon as he walked out of the gate, he shouted loudly: "Young master, young master, we are here." ”

Xiong's big and stout body squeezed through the crowd, and there were many complaints, but he didn't care, and rushed straight to Qin Guan's side, followed by the short Erbao.

Xiong Da took the things in Qin Guan's hand, and Erbao stepped forward to ask for warmth: "Young master, you can suffer, this is three days and two nights, we come here every day to wait for you, you don't know, during the exam, three were caught by officers and soldiers, I heard that it was cheating, and one was driven out last night, I heard that it was crazy." ”

The two treasures chattered, Qin Guan didn't feel annoyed, but quite kind.

"Big brother, are you coming out?"

"Come out, a little earlier than the young master, by the way, young master, there are a few of your friends over there, saying that they are waiting for you to come out and call you over." Erbao Road.

Qin Guan followed Erbao and walked over,

found that the eldest brother Qin Wei was standing with Shen Yichen, Lin Yuan, and Zhu Peng chatting, and when everyone saw Qin Guan coming out, Lin Yuan said with a smile: "Brother Shaoyou, you are out, we are talking about the difficult questions in this exam, how do you feel." ”

Qin Guan thought about it, decided not to pretend to be forced, shook his head and said, "It's really a little difficult, but I finally answered." ”

Zhu Peng said: "These three days and two nights are really difficult, why don't we go to Qinhuai River tomorrow and pack a painting boat to relax our mood, what do you think." ”

"yes, that's how it should be."

"Then we'll make it this fate, and we'll meet tomorrow."

They were indeed tired, raised their hands to say goodbye and prepared to go back to sleep well, Qin Guan and Qin Wei boarded the carriage and went all the way back to the Qin Mansion.

At this time, Qin Zhang had already come home from work, and was waiting for his two sons in the living room, watching the two sons come back, Qin Zhang said: "I have asked my subordinates to prepare hot water for you, you can take a bath first and refresh yourself, and talk about something later." ”

I didn't take a bath for two days, my body soaked in a hot water bucket, Qin Guan felt really comfortable, the maid of Qinfu rubbed her back carefully, Qin Guan felt a sense of drowsiness, and after bathing, she changed into clean clothes, and the two brothers came to the main hall.

The main hall has already set up the meal, and the wine has been prepared today, the next person poured the wine, Qin Zhang said: "You can finish the exam smoothly, it is worth celebrating, our father and son have a drink first." ”

Qin Guan and Qin Wei said in unison: "Thank you, father." ”

After drinking, Qin Zhang asked, "Wei'er, how do you feel about this year's exam questions and how well you answered, can you be confident." ”

Hearing Qin Zhang's words, Qin Wei frowned slightly, put down his chopsticks and said: "My father once asked me to do the last two sessions of the exam questions, compared with it, I think this year's exam questions are more difficult than the previous ones, and the child is not very confident." ”

Qin Zhang nodded, "I also got this year's exam questions before I came back, and this year's exam questions are indeed a bit difficult, don't be discouraged, and you may not fail the exam." In fact, even if you don't pass the exam, it's normal, but there are a few who have really taken the exam at one time, study hard, and take the exam again in three years. ”

"You are still young now, only 22 years old, you can take the exam for a few more sessions, and if you fail the exam at the age of 35, then I will consider getting you an official position."

After Qin Zhang finished speaking, Qin Wei looked at Qin Guan, who was eating and drinking, and asked, "Guan'er, how did you do in the exam?" ”

Qin Guan hadn't eaten well in the past two days, and now he felt that the food on this table was very delicious, and he happened to be a little hungry, so he ignored his father's eldest brother and ate by himself.

Hearing his father ask, Qin Guan said solemnly: "Father, I think I can do well in the exam, and I should be able to pass the exam." ”

Qin Zhang was stunned when he heard Qin Guan say this, and then his face sank: "Where did you get your confidence, your knowledge is not as good as your eldest brother, so you dare to pass the test." ”

"Father, I belong to the on-the-spot play type, I think I answered the questions quite smoothly this year, and I should be a little sure." Qin Guan Dao.

Qin Guan thought to himself, he had spent so much effort and mobilized the strength of the whole country to complete this exam, if he couldn't pass it, then he really had no choice.

Although Qin Guan was confident, Qin Zhang couldn't trust him.

Looking at Qin Guan's confident expression, Qin Zhang snorted and said, "I naturally hope that you will pass the exam, if you fail the exam this year, then you will stay here, and I will personally teach you for three years." ”

Qin Guan was in a big fight for a while.

If he really fails the exam, then his future life will be miserable.

In the past two months, two scriptures a day and a policy discussion every two days have already made him want to die, if he does this for three years, Qin Guan will probably be squeezed dry.

At this time, Qin Wei relieved his younger brother and said, "Father, a few friends of my second brother and I have asked us to go out tomorrow to play for the Spring Festival and relax our mood." ”

Qin Zhang's serious expression softened, the two children had just finished the exam, they should relax, nodded and said, "Go play, the list will be unveiled in three days, I hope you brothers have a good result." ”
