Cheng Jinxing chased to the door and said with a smile: "Take care, mother, your son will work hard!"
"What are you yelling for, you little brat!"
Cheng Jinyan walked out from the side, holding a tray in his hand.
"Nothing!"
Cheng Jinxing said in a good mood.
"Come on, I'll buy you a couple of drinks!"
Cheng Jinyan did not ask any further questions.
"Oh, good kid has learned to drink now!"
Cheng Jinxing teased.
"Kid, are you looking for a fight? I'm your brother, a year older than you!"
Cheng Jinyan said fiercely.
"Yes, yes, my big brother. However, I'm used to drinking from big bowls recently. You should treat your classmates to your small glass!"
Cheng Jinxing looked at the small wine glass with disdain.
It's so small, it's not enough to quench your thirst, okay?
"Okay, you drink from a big bowl, and I'll just have a small glass. Lately, I've gotten into the habit of drinking three glasses every night before going to bed. I sleep pretty well and don't have any dreams anymore."
Cheng Jinyan didn't feel despised, and even asked his servant to get a jar of wine and a large bowl for Cheng Jinxing.
Cheng Jinxing saw that he was in a bad mood, so he sat down and drank with him.
The two brothers have been quarreling since they were young. Of course, Cheng Jinyan was the one who was bullied since he was young, and he had been telling on Cheng Jinxing since he was young, causing him to be beaten.
There are almost no scenes of brotherly love and respect like tonight.
…
After Cheng Jinxing came back, he was taken away by Ji Minghao.
General Ji personally gave the two of them questions as the final test before the exam.
Cheng Jinxing did not slack off at all. He took a lot of notes on the military books that Ji Mingxuan found for him and some books that Ji Minghao left for him. He read them very carefully and wore out all the books.
"Yeah. Jinxing is pretty good! He's no worse than the son I personally taught!"
General Ji had a very high opinion of Cheng Jinxing.
"Dad, then tell me, between me and Jin Xing, who will win the title of martial arts champion?"
Ji Minghao asked.
"It's all possible, depending on your performance. Don't let your guard down. Jin Xing is no match for you. He can rival you in the written exam. This year's military exam was personally set by His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The Minister of War still doesn't know the topic, but we do know that this year's exam is different from previous years. We can't judge by the standards of previous years."
General Ji said with a frown.
He was not worried that his son would not do well in the exam. He just felt that His Majesty and the Crown Prince had been acting strangely lately, a little different from before.
He is about the same age as the current emperor. When he was guarding Jiangnan, he had a very good relationship with His Majesty. He always felt that there was something different about His Majesty, and he didn't know if it was because he had not returned to the capital for too long.
There were changes in this imperial examination. Both the civil and military examinations were different, and the time and content were different.
In the past, the times for civil and military ceremonies were different, but this time the times for civil and military ceremonies are exactly the same, a total of nine days, from September 6th to September 15th.
The civil examination will be held in the Imperial Academy for nine days. The prince will personally take the examination papers to discuss the content of the examination. There will be a total of 473 candidates, and finally 100 will be selected for the palace examination, which is much fewer places than in the past.
The martial arts examination was held in the royal martial arts field. Out of the nine days, eight were for martial arts competitions and one was for a written examination. There were a total of 230 candidates, and 50 were selected for the palace examination.
Of course, those who took the military examination were all military candidates. Those who were not selected could also join the army. Their positions were higher than those of ordinary people who served in the military, and they could be regarded as the leaders of dozens of people.
