On the evening of the eighth day of the lunar month, Dong Nuan rode in a carriage and accompanied Hanjianglou to the examination room.
Because I stayed in the examination room for almost ten days, I needed to bring a lot of dry food.
Charcoal fires and stoves are provided in the examination room, but you have to bring your own stove, and it cannot be too complicated.
Because they also need to consider that they are going to take an exam, so they can reduce the food as much as possible, but not too much. After all, it takes a long time, eating bad or not eating well will affect the state of the candidates.
There are many things to consider and a lot of dry food to bring.
The weather is hot and many things cannot be stored at all, so we can only bring some dry food and cook it when the time comes.
Hanjiang Tower is omnipotent, and these things are not difficult for him.
Dong Nuan also prepared dried meat and dried fruits for him, which was a kind of adjustment to avoid the discomfort of chewing dry food every day.
"Don't eat dried meat if it has been stored for a long time, and dried fruits too. The weather is hot, so be careful and arrange the spices you bring with you in time. Don't touch or spill them. They can repel mosquitoes..." Dong Nuan read along the way.
I kept mumbling and felt more nervous than going into the exam room myself.
The previous exam could be taken in one day, so it was a short time and there was nothing to worry about.
However, there are so many days now.
Dong Nuan was afraid that if Hanjiang Tower was not enough, he would not care too much about it in the examination room.
"Don't worry, Nuanbao, I've brought it all with me and remembered it." Hanjianglou naturally kept it in mind, and Dongnuan also specially prepared a toilet water to repel mosquitoes.
It is said to be a liquid fragrance, but it is actually similar to modern toilet water.
After all, in summer, it is a simple examination hall, and there cannot be no mosquitoes in it. Even if the examination room may be smoked with moxa or the like, it will not be completely smoked.
Therefore, you still have to think more carefully yourself.
If I weren't worried about the unsafeness of some spices, I would actually like to bring more for winter warmth.
However, considering the safety hazards, Dongnuan specially mixed the liquid fragrance.
After everything was explained, they arrived outside the examination room.
Candidates need to line up and undergo inspection. After there are no problems, they will officially enter the examination room.
After coming to Hanjiang Tower, I took my things with me and queued up consciously.
Dong Nuan watched from behind, feeling slightly relieved.
It has finally begun, everything will depend on what happens after the eighteenth anniversary.
If he can win, Hanjiang Tower will be the winner.
If you can't win...
It doesn't matter, the big deal is, you can take the exam again in three years, Hanjiang Tower is still young.
There weren't many Juren at his age even a few decades ago.
So, don’t be too pushy and keep your mind calm.
Thinking of this, Dong Nuan felt that her state had relaxed a lot.
It soon became dark, and there was no use for her to stay here.
After many parents came to see them off, they drove their carriages back.
Dong Nuan watched Hanjianglou enter the examination room before she signaled the coachman to go back.
Because it was already dark, she didn't bother going to Zhuangzi, but returned to Hanfu nearby.
Winter warmth now means staying in the Han Mansion, once in the Princess Mansion, and then in Zhuangzi.
In summer, I stay in Zhuangzi longer.
Because there are a lot of fresh fruits and a lot of things to worry about, plus it’s cooler over there in Zhuangzi.
Seeing that Dong Nuan is back, the servants in the house got busy.
After having dinner and cooling off for a while, Dong Nuan went to bed.
Before I went to bed, I was still thinking about the first night in Hanjianglou entering the examination room. I wonder if I had a good time?
I heard that the exam number is very small, and the people in Hanjiang Tower are so tall that they probably can’t even straighten their legs when sleeping, right?
When I think about it again, I am even more worried about having to stay there for so many days.
That night, Dong Nuan didn't sleep well. In her dreams, she was always worried about Hanjiang Tower.
And that night in Hanjiang Tower, I didn’t sleep very well either.
After all, the test number is indeed very small, and it would be difficult for a short adult man to stretch his legs, not to mention that he is much taller than most men.
Therefore, the whole person was half curled up there, but apart from this, there was no other uncomfortable feeling.
The winter-warming toilet water has a good effect, and the examination room itself also smokes moxa for mosquitoes, so I am not disturbed by it at night.
When I got up early the next morning, the official exam began. There were buckets in the examination room. When I got up early every day, special personnel would come over to fill the buckets with water.
Of course, the test number cannot be opened before adding water.
This is also to avoid the possibility of bribery and cheating by these young servants.
After adding water and other arrangements, the test number will be opened.
However, candidates are not allowed to go out at will. They need to raise the sign prepared in their examination number to indicate.
Because candidates are not allowed to make a sound during the exam to avoid cheating by giving out secret signals or the like.
So, if something happens, please sign up.
Don't make a fuss if it's not a big deal, otherwise you may be seen as disturbing the discipline of the examination room and you may be sent out directly and disqualified.
On the first day of the Hanjiang Tower exams, Dongnuan didn't have time to worry about it, so he was summoned to the palace.
When the winter warms up, General Wu is also there.
She understood at a glance that the telescope thing had come to fruition, and now were they going to give her a reward?
"Nuan Nuan is here." The emperor now called Dong Nuan more and more intimately.
That was because he truly regarded Dong Nuan as his younger sister. If it weren't for the fact that becoming a princess involves so many things, the emperor would really be prepared to directly promote Dong Nuan as a princess.
It’s not like their royal family can’t afford to support anyone, so what’s wrong with adding an extra princess?
The worst thing is, he can just have two less children, right?
"Your Majesty." After seeing the courtesy, Dong Nuan greeted General Wu politely.
The opponent has been recovering for a long time and is now in good health. However, his muscles and bones are damaged after all, and he may not be able to return to the battlefield in a short time.
However, it doesn't matter if I can't go back, I can just be busy with other things.
His talents are not limited to fighting on the battlefield, but can also be used for training and the like.
For example, this time with the telescope, he participated in it and put forward a lot of opinions.
Because this thing involves military secrets, all the production personnel have been controlled and are still trapped in a small dark room, unable to get out.
Because follow-up inspections and the like were still needed, the matter of the telescope was delayed for a long time.
Now it's finally time to award the reward.
The emperor didn't talk too much and simply talked about the role of telescopes in the military.
When it comes to military news, he will definitely not say much and will only mention the usefulness of the telescope.
"Nuan Nuan has made the greatest contribution to this matter. Originally, I was supposed to give you another promotion, but the old antiques in the clan have many opinions. I just thought of asking you to see what you think?" Emperor
He is also a master of blame-shifting, and he directly blames the clan members for everything.
Regarding this, Winter Warmth is not much of a surprise.
Adding another princess to the royal family is not a simple matter, and she is not very interested in it.
Compared with Jin becoming a princess, it is more practical to give money to Zhuangzi.
