Donghua Empire's system, generally speaking, a child could enter the school at the age of five, and complete the exam in the school, those with talent beyond their abilities could take the Elementary Scholars exam again.

There was no age limit for the examinees, and the examinee had to be ten years old before they could enter the examination hall.

After that, Yu Academy entered the academy and officially stepped onto the path of the Imperial Examinations. The Imperial Examinations were divided into three levels: the hometown exam, the conference exam, and the hall exam.

The Qizhang Academy that Qimu was in, although it was called the academy, was still the holy land for the true children. However, ever since Liu Guteng had taken over, there were often some young men who had already become a scholar or Elementary Scholar.

Thus, the current Qizhang Academy, from what he had taught, had all sorts of children. It would be better to call it the Cauldron Academy, which was more suitable.

Time passed, and three days went by in a flash. On this day, the school's monthly "warm book leave" was just given to Qimu's classmates who were still young. Most of them were taken home to mend their bodies or to play outside.

Therefore, on this day, Qimu was the only one practicing calligraphy in the lecture hall.

"Student Ye, you are truly talented, and have made rapid progress. On your first day here, you did not know a single word, nor did you know how to hold a brush. Now, you are able to write the Three Character Classic in silence."

Qimu was sitting in her seat, concentrating on practicing the Three Character Classic that she had just learned in the past few days. Suddenly, someone jumped out from beside her and said with a mischievous smile.

Qimu looked up and saw that it was Zhu Xu, the young man who had helped her report. Seeing this, she knew that it was impossible for her to write properly, so she took the opportunity to stop to rest.

"I am a bit older than them, so it is normal for me to learn faster. But you, on the other hand, why don't you study in the inner chamber and come to the outer chamber every day to study? "No wonder the teachers always say that you don't learn anything despite your young age."

Inner court specialized in teaching the four books and five classics. Outer court specialized in teaching children how to learn. Simply put, outer court was equivalent to the primary and secondary school level. Inner court specialized in the university level.

"Sigh, I'm really not someone who can read books. I've read for a long time, but I still haven't been able to find anything. Today is my holiday, so I thought about Liu Fuzi telling me to look after you more, so I decided to come and take a look."

"Student Zhu, don't use me as an excuse. I'm the most obedient. You'd better take care of yourself and make a good plan for yourself."

He was fifteen this year, and he had taken the Elementary Scholar examination twice, but he had never passed either. He was still a student at the moment, and in addition, he looked old and didn't know how to speak properly, which made him unhappy. His schoolmates always joked about it with him.

But now, even someone like Qimu, who only wanted to read the Book of Virtue and didn't care about external matters, knew to come and tease him.

Zhu Xu was depressed. Seeing Qimu's pen, he picked it up and started writing quickly, as if he was venting his anger on a piece of paper.

When he put down the brush, Qimu saw that it was written as "Unpolished, unrefined, unlearned, and unrighteous". It matched the words she had just written, "Inappropriate, unsuitable, unsuitable, and unlearned." Looking at the distinct handwriting on the paper, Qimu slightly sighed and said with some worry:

"I trained hard for a few days, day and night, before I could finally write it down. There was no mistake, but you just wrote it casually and it was much better than mine. Your strength is very good."

"I wrote it seriously. Being matched up to you made me look like a caterpillar crawling out of the ground. It was really unbearable to look at."

Hearing Qimu's words, Zhu Xu looked at her wrinkled eyebrows and burst into laughter. He then patted Qimu's shoulder and said,

"We have all seen your diligence and diligence, but no matter how hard you work, it has only been a few days. Being able to reach this level is already your natural talent."

"Besides, I've been forced to practice calligraphy since I was young. Although I'm not that knowledgeable, I'm still pretty famous when it comes to calligraphy. Why do you need to be so short and longer than me?"

Qimu smiled. She naturally understood this logic, but the problem was that she did not have much time. She had to do her best to obtain the most in the shortest amount of time and say:

"Every inch has its advantages and disadvantages, but not practicing these words is not good. Student Zhu, please do as you please. I was originally behind, so I have to continue to work hard."

"Ai, why are you so boring? It's rare for the teacher not to teach or to relax. It's such a good day outside. Many of our classmates have already left to take a stroll in the town. Why don't we go out and take a look as well? "

Seeing that Qimu was about to start writing again, Zhu Xu hurriedly grabbed the brush and hid it behind his back.

Look, you've been here for a few days already, either in the lecture hall or the school, and you haven't had a good look at our Qizhang Academy, right? "Su Yun said in a low voice." Alright.

"As a student, you don't even know what your school is like. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Qimu saw that Zhu Xu was being unreasonable. She was slightly annoyed, but she just stared at him with a smile. She didn't say anything, but her eyes were firm.

Seeing Qimu's expression, Zhu Xu felt a chill run down his spine. He shrunk his neck, unable to withstand the pressure. He took out the brush and placed it on the table.

"What a bookworm!" "In my opinion, the library in the academy is the most suitable for you …"

Qimu's ears were sensitive to begin with, and since Zhu Xu was very close to her, she could hear him clearly. Her heart was slightly moved as she asked:

"The library?" Is that the school's library? "

Seeing Qimu's interest, Zhu Xu immediately became excited and said:

"You really are a bookworm. You don't even know about the library. In my opinion, even the youngest student in the academy knows more than you do. Are you even ashamed?"

"The library doesn't have books, do you want to be a restaurant?" Or is it a teahouse? "

"Seeing that you're a new classmate, this grandpa will take you to see the biggest place in our academy. What do you think?"

Qimu nodded slightly and said slowly:

"Very good."

Seeing that Zhu Xu was eager to give it a try, he added with a smile:

"However, I still have to practice these words of mine. How about another hour?" "After I finish, we'll go eat and read."

Every day, she would set a small goal for herself in her studies. The task was extremely important, and if she didn't finish today's tasks well, then she would delay tomorrow's matters.

"Idiot, then I'll go out for a walk. I'll come find you in a while. This lecture hall makes me uncomfortable."

"Yes, we'll see."

Seeing Zhu Xu leave, Qimu sighed lightly. Zhu Xu should have grown up carefree and carefree. Even now, he could speak as he pleased and act without worry. However, she could not do that.

Qimu then stuck out her chest with the brush and began to write seriously.
