As soon as he said this, the scholar who had insisted on bringing things in silently put the pickles into the basket.
"I really don't have money to pay for food, and I'm afraid I won't be able to have lunch when I get in."
"Don't worry, our lunch is free. You can eat as much as you want, but remember to mix meat and vegetables."
Qin Yuanhao saw that the scholar was covered in patches, even the cloth bag he was carrying was patched, but the books inside were the only ones that were exceptionally well protected.
The scholar didn't expect that His Majesty would speak to him personally, and said with a red face.
"I'll pick it up after I finish my exams, thank you sir."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
It was a low murmur, but fortunately Qin Yuanhao's ears were better now and he could hear it.
The scholar turned around and walked inside.
Those who attempted to cheat or took the exam for someone else were taken away and their chance to take the exam was cancelled.
This also served as a wake-up call to those behind him, and the subsequent inspections went very smoothly.
Seeing that things were almost done, Qin Yuanhao carried Qin Zhenzhen inside.
When we got inside, we found that the open space was divided into small rooms.
At this time, the small room was already filled with many people.
Some people were organizing the pens, ink, paper and inkstones they had received, while some were organizing the sleeping bags they had received.
Many people also lowered their heads and tried to recall the articles they had reviewed before.
Qin Yuanhao deliberately carried Qin Zhenzhen and took a detour to the toilet.
This location is a good choice. It's far from the exam hall, out of the sun, and not too smelly.
[There are even people assigned to clean up. The Emperor is so thoughtful.]
The entire area is divided into four parts: east, south, west and north, with the middle part connected for examiners to move around.
The examinations in the past few days have mobilized almost all the officials in the capital.
Ten ministers were assigned to each examination room, each belonging to a different department, to supervise each other.
At noon, Qin Yuanhao stayed in the examination room and had lunch with the candidates.
Lunch is served directly to everyone's table.
The woman in pink was quite surprised when she saw the lunch.
"This meat and vegetable combination may seem simple, but it has a hidden purpose. The steamed egg with minced meat is delicious and easy to digest, and the cold cucumber salad is incredibly refreshing."
"This mung bean soup is a great way to relieve summer heat."
"The court really put its heart into this time."
She had thought that she was used to luxury at home and would suffer a lot in the exam, but now it seems that it is not a big deal.
After lunch, all candidates chose to take off their sleeping bags and take a nap.
When I opened the sleeping bag, I found a surprise inside.
A pair of earbuds and a black cover.
There is even a small painting showing how to use the two items.
There is also small print stating that these items can be taken home.
Even women who have seen the world find it very novel.
When she opened her eyes, she found that the examiner was gently pushing her. Only then did she realize that the earplugs could actually isolate the sound so well.
And this eye mask, after putting it on, it was like night, allowing her to sleep so soundly just now.
It would be great if such a treasure could be given to her to sell.
Many people like her were pushed awake by the examiner.
They put the two things away.
The subsequent exams went much more smoothly.
After all, this day was specially deduced by the Imperial Master, with beautiful weather and gentle breeze, the most suitable weather.
Most of the candidates who finished the exam did not leave the capital, but chose to wait for the test results here in the capital.
The teachers who made the test papers were released by Qin Yuanhao and forced to organize the random checks of the test papers.
For this exam, three teachers graded the papers separately and marked the scores on a table without knowing each other's information.
If the three scores differ too much, the papers will be re-marked.
If that doesn't work, Qin Yuanhao will personally get involved.
Five days is neither long nor short.
The officials in the court finally got through.
"Your Majesty, you can finally let us go home. I haven't eaten with my silly boy for half a month."
"Everyone is like that. My daughter is taking exams, so the whole academy is on holiday. I've been away from home all day, and I don't know what kind of trouble she's going to cause me."
"You know what, that academy is still quite interesting. My rebellious son used to be good at walking birds and fighting crickets, but now he doesn't do that anymore. Yesterday I saw him tinkering with some mechanical bird in his room, and he looked quite good doing it."
"That's right. I heard that the Empress has become the dean of the academy. Even His Majesty's face is useless. Everything is done according to the rules and regulations."
"Lord Wang's son caused trouble at the academy and was expelled. It's said that no academy dares to accept him now."
"Are you serious about the Queen and His Majesty's divorce?"
"Indeed, I see the new weekly paper is out."
Qin Yuanhao stood behind the crowd and didn't pay too much attention to what they were discussing.
He was happy at the thought that new blood would soon flow into the court, and was even so excited that he couldn't sleep.
God knows how many things he has to do, but he can’t arrange them because of lack of manpower!
Because everything changes.
So the candidates met the ministers of various departments, who came for interviews with a group of officials.
There is no need to meet His Majesty.
The woman in pink, Wang Yuxian, signed up to work for the Ministry of Revenue.
Because of her advantage in arithmetic, she successfully entered the final interview.
As soon as she came in, she saw the Minister of Revenue sitting there with a sad face, so she quickly handed him her transcript.
"Candidate 003 greets everyone."
When the Minister of Revenue saw Wang Yuxian come in, his eyes lit up and he quickly sat up.
