The carriage could not move forward when it arrived at the Imperial Academy because carriages were not allowed to enter the Imperial Academy.

Jiang Tunan swallowed the last bite of breakfast and jumped off the carriage. The entrance to the Imperial College was very crowded, most of whom were the candidates' family members and servants who came to see them off.

"Xiao Nan!"

Jiang Tunan turned around and found Ye Ruzhen waving at him.

"Zhenzhen! Are you here to take the exam too?"

Ye Ruzhen nodded and said with a sad face,

"My mother insisted that I take the entrance exam for this women's school, saying that the students in the Imperial College are all high-quality marriage candidates, and that I would be able to get the upper hand."

"Then your mother is wrong. What's so good about this Imperial College being filled with nerds?"

Xiao Mingxu suddenly appeared behind the two of them, startling Ye Ruzhen.

"People always say that a person with a wealth of knowledge is naturally elegant. Today, after meeting Mr. Xiao San, I realized that this saying is true. It's just that you are proving it from the opposite side."

Xiao Mingxu understood what Ye Ruzhen meant, but he was not angry and continued to smile.

"That's because you don't understand my interesting soul. Look, Xiao Nannan has been deeply impressed by my personal charm."

Jiang Tunan nodded obediently.

Jiang Tunan: I am deeply impressed by your personal charm and financial power.

Seeing Jiang Tunan's cooperation, Xiao Mingxu reached out and put his hand on Jiang Tunan's shoulder, but was grabbed by Xiao Mingrui.

"It's time to go in."

Xiao Mingxu withdrew his hand and had to honestly lead the way with Xiao Mingrui. Jiang Tunan took the basket from Chunhua and walked side by side with Ye Ruzhen.

After crossing the threshold, Jiang Tunan felt that everything around him had become quiet, as if the gate of the Imperial College had kept all the noise out.

Occasionally, some people wearing student uniforms of moon white and dark blue passed by on the road. When they saw Xiao Mingrui and Xiao Mingxu, they nodded to each other. This scene made Jiang Tunan feel a little yearning.

"arrive."

Xiao Mingrui in front looked back and saw a huge plaque hanging behind him with the words "Women's School" on it in an imposing manner.

"We can only send them here. Boys cannot enter the girls' school at will."

Xiao Mingxu explained patiently, Jiang Tunan nodded to show that he understood, and then he and Ye Ruzhen entered together. There was a large courtyard inside, and the courtyard was full of candidates waiting for the exam. Here Jiang Tunan also saw several familiar faces, such as Ye Ruxuan and Ji Lingyue.

"Isn't Ji Lingyue a talented woman? Why is she here too?"

Ji Lingyue stood alone nearby with a cold expression on his face, and a vacuum circle automatically formed around him.

"Maybe it's because I wasn't even fifteen yet."

Ye Ruzhen spoke in a casual tone. Rather than caring about why Ji Lingyue was taking the exam here, she was more concerned about how she was going to cope with the upcoming exam.

"Read a book!"

Jiang Tunan opened his notes and started reviewing from the beginning again.

"Some people are really funny. They are already at the entrance of the examination room, but they are still cramming at the last minute."

"Ye Ruxuan, do you think that because your father dotes on you, I won't dare to beat you?"

Ye Ruzhen rolled up her sleeves, ready to fight at any time. Jiang Tunan spoke calmly,

"You're so good? Let me test you. Do you know what the next sentence of "Ask the channel where it is clear" is?"

Ye Ruxuan had a puzzled look on her face, not knowing what Jiang Tunan was going to do.

“Why is there a source of living water?”

Jiang Tunan shook his head.

"Wrong! When I asked him how he could be so clear, he said, take care of yourself first."

Ye Ruxuan wanted to refute, but the examiner rang the bell to start the exam.

"Dear candidates, the exam will begin soon. Please enter the venue in an orderly manner. Except for the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone required for the exam, no items unrelated to the exam are allowed to be brought in."

Jiang Tunan didn't bother to pay attention to Ye Ruxuan and went straight into the examination room. In the examination room, many desks were arranged in an orderly manner. On the upper right corner of each desk was a sign with the candidate's name. Jiang Tunan found his desk and sat down to prepare for the exam.

The examiner rang the bell again, and the servants distributed the test papers one by one. Jiang Tunan's first reaction when he received the test paper was to turn it over to check if there were any printing errors, missing pages, or missing pages.

Oh, by the way, this was in ancient times, not in the college entrance examination.

Jiang Tunan put aside the messy thoughts in his head and began to examine the questions carefully.

Question 1: What is female virtue?

Jiang Tunan picked up his pen and wrote down without thinking: The so-called women's virtues cannot be talked about, discussed, beaten or provoked.

Then he remembered that he was taking an ancient exam and couldn't be so presumptuous, so he quickly crossed it out and wrote what he had memorized:

All women should be dignified, virtuous, and chaste, and should first learn to establish themselves. The way to establish oneself is to be pure and chaste.

Prosperous, strong and democratic, civilized and harmonious, free and equal, just and ruled by law, patriotic, dedicated, honest and friendly.

Jiang Tunan looked at her answers and was very satisfied. She said that she was best at memorizing.

Question 2: What should you do if you encounter difficulties?

Jiang Tunan smiled. This was an easy question to answer. He picked up his pen and wrote:

First, be brave (the worst that can happen is death);

Second, be optimistic (you won’t die anyway);

Third, efficiency (I’m going to die now);

Fourth, communication (or should I die?);

Fifth, self-reflection (why am I not dead yet);

Sixth, justice (everyone dies together).

I wrote a lot of words, and I wrote what I knew, and I managed to squeeze out a few words for what I didn't know. The political teacher taught me not to leave a question blank, because at least I could get one point for my hard work.

Jiang Tunan stopped writing only when the examiner announced the end of time. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought about how the examiner would feel when he saw his test paper. Jiang Tunan held his forehead and smiled bitterly: I'll just indulge you this time, you little girls. Those who see my test paper are blessed!

Because the afternoon exam was at 2 p.m., Jiang Tunan did not rush back to Xiao's house, and went to a nearby restaurant with Ye Ruzhen for lunch. Jiang Tunan was more confident about the afternoon math, which should be about the same level as modern junior high school math, and was a piece of cake for her.

So when Jiang Tunan saw the afternoon test paper, she was completely dumbfounded.

Didn’t they say the title was in classical Chinese?!

The good news: It’s not that difficult.

Bad news: I can’t understand any of the questions.

Jiang Tunan had no choice but to write the questions he knew how to write first, most of which were simple linear equations and area calculations. Except for the ten questions he gave up because he couldn't understand them, Jiang Tunan was 100% confident that he would get the remaining forty points on the test paper.

It is impossible that I can't even get 20 points in this morning's exam, Jiang Tunan thought secretly, although it is a pity to lose these 10 points, at least I can still enter the girls' school.

There was still some time before the end of the exam, and Jiang Tunan was thinking about whether to take a nap, but he found a two-point additional question written in small characters at the bottom of the back of the test paper. It was a classic question of leading reeds to shore. Although this question was a little more difficult than the other questions on the test paper, it was not a problem for Jiang Tunan.

Since he had nothing to do anyway, Jiang Tunan just finished the question.

Jiang Tunan: My damn wisdom has nowhere to go.
