There were no auditions for this competition, but Jiang Er still sold a lot of tickets.
Because the issue of cheating in the provincial examination was so popular, many people and students were very curious about Luo Junqian's true level, so a lot of people bought tickets.
Jiang Er also released the news that tickets could be entered into a lottery, and more people bought tickets.
On the day of the competition, Jiang Er specially invited several local respected gentlemen to give questions. Each of them gave a word on the spot, and finally a complete question was formed.
Luo Junqian and the questioners answered the questions on the spot.
However, if the questioner loses to Luo Junqian, he must apologize to Luo Junqian in public.
The competition lasted for most of the day, and Luo Junqian finally won. All the doubters who participated in the challenge had to be convinced and apologized to Luo Junqian in public.
Xie Ying went to the scene specifically to watch the game and felt that these people were completely stupid.
Luo Junqian is only fifteen years old, and the fact that he dares to participate in this kind of competition shows that he has real talent and knowledge.
At this time, a smart person will definitely retreat and will never participate in the competition and embarrass himself.
Only a fool would jump out and act like a clown.
So it’s no surprise that Luo Junqian was able to win in the end.
After the competition, Jiang Er also gave all participants a participation prize of ten candles. The candles were all made in the shape of bamboo joints, symbolizing perfection and continuous success.
So even though this reward was not expensive, everyone was still quite happy.
There was a lucky draw afterwards, but Xie Ying did not participate and left the venue early.
After this competition, she had someone release the news about the cooling oil.
As soon as the news came out, many people rushed to the store to buy cooling oil.
The cooling oil is stored in a small porcelain bottle the size of a knuckle. In order to make it easy to use, the porcelain bottle is made into the shape of a mini water cup, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, just enough for a finger to fit in.
When not in use, plug the bottle with a wooden cork.
There is no other way. With current technology, it is not easy to produce small iron boxes. It is better to use this small porcelain bottle instead.
Such a small bottle of cooling oil costs five taels of silver.
Even at such a high price, it still couldn't stop people's enthusiasm for buying, and even caravans from other places came to purchase.
Xie Ying made a fortune again.
As the cooling oil became popular, Luo Junqian deliberately spread the news that he would not participate in the next spring examination, ran directly back home to hide away, and faded from everyone's sight.
Most of the candidates were going to take part in the next spring examination, so they all set off for the capital.
The scholars who failed to pass the imperial examination had to continue working hard to prepare for the provincial examination three years later, so they had no time to pay attention to Luo Junqian.
Luo Junqian calmed down.
He hid at home until the next spring examination.
The imperial examination was held only once every three years, so there were still many candidates taking part in this spring examination, including Zhu Huan.
In order to stay in good condition in the examination room, almost every candidate has a bottle of cooling oil.
The entire examination room was filled with the special smell of cooling oil, even faintly covering up the stench of the toilet.
As a result, the candidates performed very well, and the number of people who collapsed during the exam was much less than in previous years.
When Emperor Taihe heard the news, he couldn't help but feel more favorable towards the cooling oil.
Then he thought of Xie Ying.
Thinking of the news from the Black Kirin Guards, Jiang Er cut Xie Ying's hair as a talisman, allowing Qi to give birth to a big fat boy safely.
Emperor Taihe couldn't help but get restless.
Should he send someone to bring the girl to the palace to be raised?
Maybe if that girl stays in the palace for a few more days, my beloved concubine will be able to get pregnant with a big fat boy.
He was lost in thought when suddenly someone came to announce, "Your Majesty—Your Majesty is very happy—The Imperial Concubine is pregnant—"
"What?" Emperor Taihe stood up suddenly, staring at the person who came. "What did you just say? The imperial concubine is pregnant? Are you sure?"
