Leaving was indeed a relief for Yu Huan.
She was bound to the system, leaving here, she could go to the next world. Although she didn't know what identity it would be, it was definitely better than the long ten years of illness and torture.
Despite this, the emotional separation is still a bit sad.
Her grandmother who always coaxed her to get up and take medicine, her mother who seemed strict but actually doted on her, her father who was always away from home but always concerned about her, and Ji Wenxu who looked back again and again before leaving.
A little reluctant.
She was in a daze and confused.
More and more people gathered around her bed, but the doctor never showed up. She no longer had to drink extremely bitter medicine, but just slept every day.
It seemed that they had finally accepted the reality that she didn't have much time left, and they stayed by her side, crying in sorrow.
At the last moment, my mind became clear and my consciousness was unprecedentedly alert.
She was able to open her eyes and see her loved ones in this world, trying hard to remember everyone.
She opened her mouth. Mrs. Zhao came over with tears in her eyes: "What are you going to say..."
Her consciousness began to fade, and her voice became softer and softer, but she still finished slowly: "Our family is very good. I have no regrets about being a child of the Zhao family."
The raised hand fell on the edge of the bed, and the warm white jade bracelet slid down under the force and got stuck on the thin wrist bone.
There were cries throughout the Zhao Mansion.
.
Everything is going smoothly on the Jiwenxu side.
Others who came out of the examination room were either gloomy and sad-looking, or looked dazed and exhausted. Only Ji Wenxu walked steadily, just like usual.
When he walked out, he knew he was stable and in a good mood.
After the exam, the Minister of Rites and others who presided over the examination would mark the papers day and night. After marking, they would check and verify them repeatedly. Once they were sure that there were no mistakes, the results would be announced within a few days.
During the days of waiting, Ji Wenxu spent his days touring the capital, memorizing any unusual people or events he encountered, hoping to tell her about them when he got home. He also bought anything interesting he saw and brought it back for her to see.
During this period, he was somehow noticed and received an invitation from the Shen family in Beijing.
Ji Wenxu thought about it and went to visit the Shen family with the intention of finding out the reason. The Shen family treated him with courtesy and treated him like a distinguished guest.
After Ji Wenxu asked, he found out that they somehow saw his talent and believed that he would definitely be on the list, so they started to make friends with him before the results were announced.
It’s not a bad thing to have more connections in Beijing.
But when the other party's words hinted at marriage, Ji Wenxu's face suddenly became solemn, and he stood up from his seat and said, "I already have a wife."
The Shen family just wanted to find a capable candidate among this year's candidates, cultivate him well, and use him for their benefit in the future. Seeing that Ji Wenxu was the youngest, they didn't think about this issue.
"It's okay, that's okay, it's okay to make friends." The Shen family said hurriedly.
.
After the results are announced, a palace examination will have to be conducted to truly determine one's success, which will inevitably delay the exam for a few more days.
Ji Wenxu has toured most of the capital city in the past few days and feels that the place that everyone yearns for is just like this. It is just a little rich and famous, and there is nothing worth lingering about.
When the night was deep and quiet, he stroked the peace locket in the moonlight, entangled by uncontrollable longing.
He wants to have fun.
At this hour, Ji Wenxu looked at the moon outside through the window. She should have gone to bed long ago.
I went to bed early, but couldn't get up the next day. I stayed in bed like a pig, and had to be begged to open my eyes. I drowsily washed myself with the water soaked with flower petals...
All the daily memories came back to me.
He was getting increasingly restless. Waiting day after day was becoming unbearable.
Ji Wenxu stood up, put on his coat, sat down at the table, and picked up a pen to write a letter to her.
I recorded everything I had seen and heard during these days and told her about it. I couldn't help but worry about whether she was wearing too many clothes or too few, whether she had caught a cold again, and whether she was feeling comfortable...
It would take many days to find someone to send the letter back. By the time the person arrives and brings the reply, he might have already returned to the Zhao Mansion.
Therefore, Ji Wenxu did not have anyone to deliver the letters, but only wrote one letter every day to relieve his longing. The letters piled up on the table, slowly growing to half a finger high.
.
After a long wait, the results were finally announced.
Ji Wenxu rushed there early in the morning. Even so, the place in front of the list was still packed with people. Everyone was looking at the list. Some left silently in disappointment, while others cried with disbelief and joy.
Ji Wenxu was calm and composed, but the servants he brought with him were even more anxious than him. They rushed in, repeatedly wiping their eyes, looking around, and exclaimed in surprise: "Master Ji! Master Ji, look, you're the first one."
Everyone watching in front of the list followed the servant's gaze, and all their eyes were fixed on him in amazement, admiration and envy.
Sure enough, it’s stable.
Ji Wenxu smiled slightly. He knew that from this moment on, his life would undergo tremendous changes. He would finally be able to climb up from the bottom and move to a higher place.
At the age of twenty, he already ranked first in the imperial examination. Who knows how many amazing things he will have in the future.
After the results were announced, countless people came to his door, offering large sums of money and lavish gifts, just to make friends with him.
It was already dark when the servant sent away the last wave of people and collapsed on the ground exhausted. However, the same situation would happen again the next day.
It was not until the day of the palace examination that the situation temporarily stopped.
.
The Emperor personally tested them, and the candidates, who were selected from thousands of candidates, fell to the ground without any composure, their hearts and eyes filled with fear.
Only Ji Wenxu remained calm and responded calmly, giving an excellent answer.
