Today is the last day of the exam, and we can pick up the candidates in the afternoon.
Gao Zhijun, Hong Qiujue, Xie Taifu, Huo Zhiyuan, Huo Jinzhou, Canglang and Qinglong arrived at the Imperial Examination Hall. At this time, many relatives of the candidates came to wait.
When you hear the bell ringing, it means the exam is over and you just have to wait for the candidates to come out.
After a quarter of an hour, candidates began to come out. They looked pale and stumbled as they walked.
When their families saw this, they rushed forward to help them get on the carriage to rest.
Hong Qiujue and Huo Zhiyuan were worried, fearing that Jinqian would become like them.
Not long after, Huo Jinqian came out. Although his face looked bad, it was not as exaggerated as theirs.
Hong Qiujue and others breathed a sigh of relief. They were just tired, and there was no big problem.
Huo Jinqian came out, and Tian Boen and the others also came out one after another. They gathered together and talked for a while, then each got into their own carriage, parted ways, and went back to their homes.
As soon as Huo Jinqian got on the bus, the candidate who called himself "Young Master" came out. Looking at Huo Jinqian getting on the bus, he asked the servant to check Huo Jinqian's background.
Inside the carriage, Master Xie asked Huo Jinqian, "How did you do on the exam? Was it difficult?"
"Teacher, it's not difficult. Many teachers have said so. I'm very confident."
Huo Jinqian spoke the truth.
“It’s good as long as it’s not difficult.”
Said Taifu Xie.
Gao Zhijun took his pulse and found that apart from being a little weak and lacking sleep, there was no major problem.
"I've eaten so many instant noodles, but why am I still weak? There's a lot of minced meat there, and when you add water it becomes broth. It's not as nutritious as the soup I usually drink, but it's not bad either."
Gao Zhijun asked Huo Jinqian curiously. She'd told Qingshuang and the others to use plenty of minced meat, knowing he needed to use his brainpower. So why did this problem arise?
"No, it's because the other candidates smelled the fragrance and they switched to instant noodles with me."
Huo Jinqian told what happened in the Imperial Examination Hall.
"Are you really stupid?"
Gao Zhijun didn't know how to talk to him. He couldn't even take care of himself, and yet he was taking care of others.
"That's right, Zhijun is right. You also need to eat to replenish your nutrition. But you are exchanging dry food with them."
Hong Qiujue also said angrily.
Knowing that eating dry food was not nutritious and that he would not have the energy to take the exam, Zhijun asked Qingshuang and the others to make instant noodles, hoping that he would have the energy to take the exam.
"I'm sorry for letting you down."
Huo Jinqian apologized ashamedly.
"Forget it, it's all in the past, let it go."
Gao Zhijun said comfortingly.
"By the way, when will the results be announced?"
Gao Zhijun asked Taifu Xie and Huo Jinqian.
"Ten days later!"
Said Taifu Xie.
"If Jinqian passes the imperial examination, he will have to take part in the provincial examination."
Xie Taifu explained.
"Jinqian, go back and have a good rest. You will return to the academy in three days to attend classes and prepare for the provincial examination."
Taifu Xie said to Huo Jinqian.
"Yes, teacher!"
Huo Jinqian said.
Back in the yard, Xiaoli brought food. After Huo Jinqian finished eating, Xiaoxue got him some bath water. He soaked for a while before getting up, putting on his clothes, and going back to his room to sleep.
Gao Zhijun returned to the clinic to attend classes.
The days passed like this, and Huo Jinqian returned to the academy to attend classes.
Today is the day when military doctors leave. Gao Zhijun and Tao Yuanzheng have already sent more than a dozen military doctors away. They have learned a lot and have learned how to perform surgery.
Gao Zhijun has asked Tao Yuanzheng and Huo Jinxiu to recruit nurses and doctors. Soon, she will take her Sun family and Huo family to the capital to open a shop.
Regardless of whether Huo Jinqian can take part in the provincial examination, she and Huo Jinqian will go to the capital.
"My daughter, remember what you promised your father: you will spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with me."
Murong Yuanbo reminded again.
"Dad, don't worry. Mom and I will definitely go to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with you."
Gao Zhijun assured again.
"Okay, I believe you!"
Murong Yuanbo said with satisfaction.
"Madam, if you miss me, I'll be waiting for you at the border."
Murong Yuanbo turned around and spoke to Liu Ningchu with affection.
"I get it. You're an old married couple, how can you still be so shameless? Get on your horses and leave!"
Liu Ningchu felt sweet in her heart, but said it with disgust on her face.
"Madam, my daughter, I'm leaving!"
Murong Yuanbo finished speaking, then he jumped on his horse and galloped away. He didn't dare look back, fearing that if he did, he would be reluctant to leave.
"Husband, be careful on the road!"
"Dad, have a safe trip!"
Liu Ningchu and Gao Zhijun waved goodbye to Murong Yuanbo who was leaving.
"Mom, let's go back!"
Gao Zhijun said to Liu Ningchu.
"Okay, let's go back!"
Gao Zhijun helped Liu Ningchu get on the carriage, and she got on the carriage and asked Qinglong to return to Huojia Village.
The day of the results announcement soon arrived. Gao Zhijun, Huo Jinqian, Qinglong, Moxue and Canglang went to the Imperial Examination Hall to see the results and see how Huo Jinqian performed.
In the Imperial Examination Hall, the horse-drawn carriages filled the open space in front of the hall.
Qinglong parked the carriage, and Gao Zhijun and others stayed in the carriage and waited until the results were announced before going to see them.
There are too many people now, and I don’t want to squeeze with them.
Soon, four gatekeepers came with a notice to post it.
The candidates and their families followed behind, wanting to be the first to see the results.
After the gatekeeper puts up the signs, he stands by to maintain order.
Soon cheers and sobs were heard from the front.
“I got it! I got it!”
“I got it too!”
"I failed the exam, and I failed again this year!"
"Me too, I failed the exam!"
The cheers and the sounds of disappointment formed a sharp contrast, making the candidates and their families who did not see the results even more nervous and uneasy.
"Jinqian, let's go over and take a look."
Gao Zhijun said to Huo Jinqian.
So, Mo Xue protected Gao Zhijun, and Canglang protected Huo Jinqian as they headed to the place where the results were announced.
