Starting from a thatched cottage, the farmer embarked on the road to wealth through imperial examina

The next day, Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng got up early, packed up, said goodbye to Mr. Cai solemnly, and then got on the carriage driven by Lu Tingfeng.

Seeing Xing Wang standing by the carriage with a pitiful expression, Ye Changyan agreed to let Xing Wang follow him and send him to the Imperial College, and then return to Cai Mansion with Lu Tingfeng.

Sang Li and his servant had moved to Fuliu Lane near the Imperial College yesterday. Lu Tingfeng drove the carriage straight towards the Imperial College.

Lu Tingfeng parked the carriage next to Yunfeng Tower and saw Sang Li and his servant waiting there.

Lu Tingfeng took the two people's luggage down from the carriage, and then he and Xing Wang each carried some, and the group walked towards the crowded gate of the Imperial College.

Someone at the gate checked the identities. Ye Changyan, Liang Jingcheng, Sang Li and others all received their own identity badges from the Imperial College, and then they walked into the Imperial College.

The interior of the Imperial College covers a large area. When you enter from the gate, it looks like independent blocks. Walking along the central axis, there are independent buildings scattered around. At the front is the office space of the Imperial College.

Walking further in, there are three independent large courtyards of mathematics, calligraphy and law. Xingwang stared at the foreigners who were dressed in foreign costumes and looked obviously different from the Sheng people. He was so stared that he couldn't move.

"Xingwang, it seems a bit impolite for you to keep staring at others like this."

Ye Changyan patted Xing Wang's shoulder and spoke in a low voice. Xing Wang then picked up his bag reluctantly and walked forward, looking back every few steps.

Continue walking in and you will reach the location of the Simen School, which is obviously much larger than the previous courtyards. The Simen School has the largest number of students among the six schools.

The block not far from Simenxue is where Taixue is located. Taixue looks more magnificent than Simenxue and seems to cover a larger area.

Sang Li is one of the few foreign students in the Imperial College, and this will be where Sang Li will study in the future.

Here, Sang Li and his servant said goodbye to Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng, and Ye Changyan and his group continued to walk inside.

Then I saw the flow of people gradually thinning out. This was because the Imperial College enrolled the fewest students among the six academies, and it was located in the deepest part of the Imperial Academy. As I walked all the way inside, I only occasionally saw one or two young men in luxurious clothes walking on this road.

"It seems that this Imperial College is the quietest place among the six academies. It should be a good place to study."

As Ye Changyan was speaking, the group arrived at the Imperial College, the innermost part of the Imperial College. Opposite the Imperial College was a library. Ye Changyan and his group stood at the entrance of the Imperial College and saw that the building was magnificent, and the library opposite the Imperial College was even more spectacular with its carved beams and painted buildings.

Ye Changyan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this place is worthy of being the highest official educational institution in the entire dynasty. With the dynasty's strong financial support, it is indeed magnificent.

As they entered the gate of the Imperial College, an official led Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng to go through various admission procedures. Then each of them distributed two sets of indigo-colored robes. Finally, the official took out two keys and handed them to Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng.

"My two lords, over there are the dormitories. Each dormitories accommodates two people. Next to the dormitories are living areas such as the dining room and the bathroom. My two lords can go there to get familiar with the environment first. You can have lunch in the dining room at noon. At noon, go to Mingyi Hall to attend the welcome party."

Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng both reached out to take the keys, and after politely thanking the clerk, the group walked towards the dormitory. The word "Geng Jiu" was written on both of their keys, which seemed to indicate that they were assigned to the same dormitory.

Ye Changyan and his party arrived at the dormitories of the Imperial Academy, where they saw neat rows of dormitories covering a fairly large area.

Dormitory No. 9 Geng is located in a corner, next to which there is an old locust tree and a plum tree, which looks quite quiet and peaceful.

Ye Changyan took out the key and opened the door of dormitory No. 9 Geng. The dormitory was about ten square meters in size. There were two desks by the window and two chairs under the desks. Next to the desks was a row of bookshelves, and next to the bookshelves were two cabinets. There was a bed in each of the two corners against the wall.

After Lu Tingfeng and Xing Wang put down their bags, they began to help Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng make the bed. Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng then put the stationery, clothes and some other items in their bags into the cabinets.

Since the management of students in the Imperial College was very strict and they were usually not allowed to go out except on holidays, after they packed up their things, Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng planned to take advantage of the last bit of free time to go to Yunfeng Tower for lunch.

When the group arrived at Yunfeng Tower, a queue had already started forming outside. In order not to cause trouble for Yunfeng Tower, Ye Changyan and the others had to take a detour and enter the Yunfeng Tower from the backyard.

Since they would officially move into the Imperial College in the afternoon, Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng did not drink any alcohol, and they even forgot the happiest part of the meal.

After the meal, Liang Jingcheng began to give instructions to Lu Tingfeng, asking him to take good care of the master when he was away, and to let Sang Li convey any problems. If he needed anything, he would also ask Sang Li to pass the message on.

Ye Changyan was trying to comfort Xingwang who was feeling a little depressed, but his consolation had no effect. It was not until Ye Changyan said that he would prepare a table of sumptuous dishes for him during the day off that Xingwang finally smiled with joy.

After returning to the dormitory from Yunfeng Tower, the two of them changed into the indigo-colored lanshan that the clerk had distributed earlier. This was the school uniform of the Imperial College. Students from the six schools were required to wear the same lanshan in the Imperial College, but the colors of the lanshans of the six schools were different. This was also a way to quickly distinguish students from each school.

Nearing noon, Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng arrived at Mingyi Hall. They saw that the hall was spacious and bright, with many people already sitting inside, talking in groups of three or four with their heads down.

Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng looked around, and there seemed to be no familiar faces. Although these people were wearing indigo-colored robes, their gestures revealed the temperament of the sons of aristocratic families.

"Brother, is there anyone here?"

As time went by, more and more people entered Mingyi Hall. At this time, Ye Changyan heard someone asking him something.

Ye Changyan looked up and saw a handsome young man with an oval face pointing at an empty seat next to him.

Ye Changyan raised the corner of his mouth and shook his head at the other party. The young man nodded at him politely, lifted his clothes slightly, and sat down in the seat next to Ye Changyan.
