The group walked slowly towards the inn. On the way, Wang Ze said with a smile: "A Jing, you must help me with tomorrow's exam. If I fail, Xiaonan and the others will laugh at me when I go back. You must not stand by and watch me die..."

Yun Jing looked at him with a helpless smile: "Do you still remember the content of our first exam two days ago?"

"Of course. It's only been a few days, but I still remember it clearly." Wang Ze nodded affirmatively.

"Then you should have noticed that the biggest difference between this year's exam and previous ones is that the weight of arithmetic has increased significantly." Yun Jing analyzed it with him in detail: "In the past, there was only arithmetic questions on the last question, but this year there are two or three of them. I suspect that there will be arithmetic questions on the second exam as well, and they may even account for a large proportion."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ze's face immediately showed some joy.

Arithmetic problems are easy, as he encounters them almost every day at his godmother's house.

The main reason is that Awen likes this kind of content, and Yunjing will also discuss it with him, and every time he will force him to attend the class.

I don’t know what’s wrong with my godmother’s brain, but she always has some unique solutions to those arithmetic problems. Obviously difficult problems can be solved in just a few steps in her hands.

He had no trouble solving the math problems in the exam two days ago. They were much simpler than doing them at home.

"Brother Yun, hearing you say that, I suddenly feel a lot more confident." Wang Ze smiled until his teeth were exposed. "If the arithmetic score still has a lot of weight tomorrow, after I pass the exam, we can take the next exam together."

Yun Jing was embarrassed to dampen his confidence, but he still said tactfully: "If you can pass the exam this time, there is also a certain amount of luck involved. If you force yourself to take the next exam, it may be a setback for you."

The provincial examination is different from the imperial examination. It is held only once every three years, and this time it happens to be in August this year, so he must participate.

However, he was not very confident. After all, he was competing with all the students in the provincial capital. He didn't know how strong he was in the province for those few places, but he would try his best.

Although Wang Ze is very smart, he has missed too much learning in the past. He still needs to continue studying and lay a solid foundation before he can take this exam.

By the time of the second session, the number of people taking the exam suddenly dropped.

Yun Zhenzhen sent the children into the examination room.

Suddenly, a panicked figure ran out from the door.

"Madam Yun, something happened. Please save my young master." A little servant boy ran out. Yun Zhenzhen remembered him. He had always been with Wang Ye before. After their relationship became better, he became very eager and enthusiastic towards them.

"Don't be anxious, just talk to her carefully first." Yun Zhenzhen said comfortingly.

"Madam Yun, my son was caught by the inspectors when he was going in. They said he brought cheat sheets with him, and now he's being held captive... How is this possible? My son's grades are so good, he'll definitely make the list. There's no need for him to bring cheat sheets. He must have been framed... Madam Yun, you must help us."

"Don't worry, let me think about it." Yun Zhenzhen's eyes were serious as she pondered the whole story.

Although Wang Ye is a bit unreliable and a bit of a bully, he is knowledgeable. After getting the third place on the list, he did not cheat and put his future in an uncertain place.

It seems like he was set up by someone, most likely because he spoke up for Jing Ge'er yesterday and was hated by someone.

"Let's go and take a look at the specific situation." Yun Zhenzhen looked solemn and walked over there with the servant.

At this moment, some candidates were still queuing for examination, while Wang Ye was escorted out directly.

Those who usually flattered him also changed their expressions at this time.

"Hey, isn't this the famous Prince Wang? Why isn't he going in to take the exam? Don't you want to?"

"What are you talking about? You don't know yet. This guy was kicked out for cheating during an exam. It's a good thing they didn't send him to jail."

"I don't know how he got his previous test scores. Who knows how deep the water is here."

"..."

Wang Ye just listened to their nonsense quietly, his face livid, but what they said was the truth, and he couldn't explain it clearly even if he didn't do it.

At this moment, he suddenly understood Yun Jing's situation that day, and now he knew what empathy meant.

The servant stood not far away, feeling extremely anxious. If word got out about the young master's cheating, his life would be ruined. He would definitely be implicated by the master when he returned...

Then, he knelt at Yun Zhenzhen's feet as if he were a savior: "Madam Yun, please, save my young master. He is still a child, and his grades are so good. His life cannot be ruined like this..."

The servant's name was Wang Gui, a servant of the Wang family. He had been with the young master all his life and had never experienced anything like this, so he was panicked for a moment.

He only knew to ask for help from the woman in front of him. Ruyi'an people even have a way to deal with the flu, so they must have a way to save his young master.

At this time, he could only kneel on the ground and kowtow to her continuously.

Yun Zhenzhen helped him up, looked at his face covered in snot, and whispered, "Did you see the cheat sheet they found during the search?"

"I didn't see it. The examiner took the young master aside. I saw it and immediately came out to look for you. The examiner must have taken the things away." Wang Gui looked frustrated. "I overheard someone else and they said they would make a judgment after the exam."

Yun Zhenzhen sneered. If this matter was really fabricated, then the examiner must have been bribed. As long as they had the physical evidence, they could make up whatever they wanted afterwards.

If he is accused of cheating, his future in the imperial examinations will be ruined.

Although Wang Ye didn't have a close relationship with her, she was still a child after all. In addition, they had been getting along well for the past few days, so it could be seen that he was not a bad person by nature. He even testified for Jing Ge'er yesterday, so he suffered an unprovoked disaster.

Yun Zhenzhen thought for a moment, then remembered the Anren seal she carried with her.

When I was going on a long trip, I thought it might be useful, and it would be convenient to take it with me when I go out to do things.

Then, she walked forward with the seal in her hand. A yamen runner stopped her and said, "This is the important examination area. No outsiders are allowed to enter. You will wait outside."

Yun Zhenzhen handed the item over and said calmly, "This exam will be supervised by the Governor himself, right? Could you please help pass on the message that Ruyi An from Yunding County has an important matter to attend to. Please help me by giving this to the Governor, and he will understand."

"Of course, you can ignore me. If you delay something important, and the governor blames you, it will depend on how many heads you have."
