In the afternoon, in a corner of Chang'an, Li Mi, who was preparing for the imperial examination, was working on a calculation question. The question required calculation of the work and materials required to build a stone bridge on a river. There were many "known numbers" and many "unknown numbers" required to solve.

He actually calculated the result, but in order to ensure that he got the "full mark", he checked it out and after confirming it, he took out a booklet from the side, turned to the page number according to the title number, and started to check the answer.

After correcting it, his calculation results were all correct, and one of the three calculation processes given in the answer is the same as his own calculation process.

The question was full marks, Li Mi breathed a sigh of relief, put the test set and answers, got up and stretched his muscles and bones, then walked outside the study, looked at the flowers, plants and trees, and gradually became enchanted.

Autumn is coming, and the provincial examination is about to be held. In February next year, Chang'an will hold an examination. As a juren in the previous provincial examination, he can directly enter the imperial examination this time. If he still cannot make a breakthrough, he will take the provincial examination next time.

At that time, there will only be more and more people referring to it, and it will be more and more difficult to enter the exam.

After all, the examination area where he is located is the "Guanzhong Examination Area". The competition is already fierce, and coupled with the strong stimulation of the successful holding of the first imperial examination, more and more scholars will inevitably enter the battlefield of the imperial examination.

As he thought about it, Li Mi clenched her fists and became more motivated.

Speaking of knowledge, he has confidence in himself. Since the end of the last imperial examination, he has worked hard for three years and has done countless exercises. In this examination, Mingsuan subject will no longer be a weakness...

Therefore, this exam will definitely be awarded the title!

Li Mi's family background was very good. His great-grandfather was Li Bi, one of the eight pillars of the Wei State (Western Wei State). His family was originally a powerful family in Zhou State, but his father was a general of the Sui State and died in battle when he fought with the Zhou army. Therefore, during the subsequent liquidation, although Li Mi and his mother escaped the misfortune of killing or exiling to the frontier, their situation plummeted.

His father's Duke of Pushan was abolished a few years after his father passed on to the young Li Mi. Most of the property of Li's family was confiscated by the government, and the orphans and widows were all supported by uncles, uncles, and elders. Li Mi lived through a panic childhood.

The family background changed drastically, the wealthy family was ruined in the past, and the bad reputation of the traitor's family members, most of the clan relatives avoided them. Even if they had the help of elders, they did not provide much help.

The mother and son were unable to bear many expenses, and the servants and troops in the family gradually became separated. In order to save expenses, the mother and son moved out of the place where officials lived and moved to Lifang where civilians gathered.

But even though the family is in a difficult situation, my mother has always supported Li Mi to study, hoping that her son would stay away and see the moon brightly and to survive until the day she would stand out.

After his mother and several kind elders passed away one after another, Li Mi had many relatives, but he was alone. Because no one supported him, he had no hope of becoming an official and had no future.

The descendants of the Eight Pillar Kingdom in the past were so embarrassed that they went to the bookstore to proofread books to make a living. Li Mi was unwilling to give up, but she didn't know where the way out was.

It was not until the emergence of the imperial examination that Li Mi, who was unwilling to be mediocre, saw hope. He studied since childhood and was confident that he could win fame by taking the exam, but he did not learn much arithmetic.

So the dynasty's first imperial examination was successfully passed the provincial examination and became a juren. Because the Ming Suan Technique was forced to do so, he failed the imperial examination and failed to enter the palace examination.

Li Mi, who became a juren, had significantly improved his life situation. This imperial examination touched him a lot: the top scholar Lu Chu was actually a stuttering, and his situation was similar to his own, but he could still be on the list by taking the exam, winning the election, becoming an official, and not working hard.

So Li Mi has been working hard for the past three years, refusing to take the majority of social engagements, preparing for the exam wholeheartedly, and is determined to be selected for the palace examination and be on the imperial examination.

Enter the official career, climb upward, win high officials, and get rich and wealthy food!

Let those bastards who were looking down on others in the past lick their faces to flatter!

Thinking of this, Li Mi breathed a sigh of relief, turned back to the study, drank a cup of tea to refresh herself, and continued to review her homework.

He lost his father at a young age and experienced the warmth and warmth of human nature. Now he is about to reach his thirty years, but he has no one or two positions. He finally has a way out and secretly swears in his heart that he must make a name for himself.

So even if the test will take nearly half a year to start, Li Mi did not dare to relax.

Over the past three years, Li Mi has saved money and bought all the money he saved to exercises and academic journals. He practiced as much as possible and reads more, especially reading journals. What he should be prevented is that there were extra points in the journal during the exam, but he could not do it himself.

He swore that this exam must not be the same as last time, because he clearly calculated that Kola had lowered the total score, and in the end he was only one left, he could enter the palace examination.

"The Lord..."

The servant who appeared at the door whispered, and Li Mi then turned around and looked: "What's the matter?"

"The Lord, the new book from the school club has been bought back..."

The bookkeeper walked into the study with a basket and took out the books in the basket one by one. The new books also emitted the fragrance of ink. Li Mi took them in his hand and looked through them, very satisfied: "No, not bad."

When the thin servant saw that the man was satisfied, he smiled. His family was poor and had many brothers. Ye Niang couldn't support so many people, so he could only make a living and help others make money.

This bite of rice is not delicious. If you can’t do a good job in serving people, you won’t want to eat the rice. You can only take care of your slap, fists, or whip.

Finally, he met a man with a good temper. He didn't want to lose his job. After all, he didn't know a big word at the beginning, so the man taught him to read and write, otherwise he wouldn't be able to organize his books and go to the book club to buy books.

Seeing Li Mi putting the book aside and going to start doing exercises, the bookkeeper quickly reminded: "The Lord, the young man, as the Lord told him, he also bought a copy of the legend that happened to be published."

Legend is a kind of short and medium-sized novel, with many contents that tell stories about strange stories. You can read them or hear stories about the storytellers that no matter how good or bad people are, they like novels of this kind of subject.

Li Mi's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she looked up and asked, "Hmm? Is it the "Watson Detective Records" series? A new book has been released?"

The series of stories in "The Untouched Watson" include "The Headless General" and the latest "The Insect Valley of the South". Li Mi has already seen it and often sits on a couch. She will read it after a while when she has time.

In his opinion, these two "legendary" stories are indeed well written.

I don’t know who the author is, and I can come up with such a wonderful story and express it in writing. Not to mention anything else, the canyon full of hanging coffins, just by reading the text description, can make people feel as if they are here in person, and are shocked by the strange scene and feel chilled on their backs.

Li Mi likes to watch the "Watson Detective Records" series of stories. If there is a latest story, you must buy it.

Shutong shook his head: "No...not the "Watson Detective Records" series, it is a separate story. Please read the Lord...."

After hearing Shutong say this, Li Mi flipped through several books, found a book, held it in her hand, looked at it, and was stunned after seeing the cover and title: "This... what is this story?"
Chapter completed!
