Shangjing was placing great importance on this year's imperial examinations.
Because so many people had registered, construction crews were working day and night to build additional examination stalls.
Many wealthy families even cleared out one or two of their smaller courtyards to accommodate the scholars who couldn't find lodging. Whether or not these men became Advanced Scholars, it was a good way to build favorable connections.
From that day on, Ancient Wen Heng truly shut himself away from the world. He would occasionally enter Jin Qianqian's pocket dimension to take advantage of the time differential, using it to study all the case files Shan Ke'an had sent over.
Jin Qianqian had also been spending all her time in the kitchen. Ancient Wen Heng would be in the examination stall for nine days this time, and many things had to be prepared in advance.
