In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather was no longer as scorching as before, and could rightly be called crisp and refreshing.
With the exception of the southernmost areas of the Great Wei Dynasty, like Guangyue Prefecture and Jiao State, the rest of the land was cool and pleasant, with a gentle, warm breeze.
Yet the Wei People were busier than ever.
After the autumn harvest, farmers who grew crops began preparing for winter and the coming year, repairing dikes, reinforcing irrigation channels, and plowing the fields.
Merchants saw little change; they bustled about all year round, regardless of the weather or season.
Even the scholars were much busier than usual.
The busyness was because most students had to prepare for the upcoming County, Prefecture, and Academy Examinations, as well as the Annual Examination.
