Born in an ancient peasant family, the peasant girl became famous all over the world

Chapter 136 Forced Conscription

This time her grandmother was not with her, and she felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

When Jiang Yue arrived, there were candidates in groups of three or four at the entrance of the Imperial Examination Hall.

Seeing that Ye Chen had already left, she waved to him.

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen had a stern face and ignored him.

Jiang Yue's hands froze. This young man had a bad temper. It was not the first time she noticed that Ye Chen was a little willful from time to time.

She just stood quietly aside, waiting for the Imperial Examination Hall to open.

The gate of the Imperial Examination Hall opened, and the examinees entered one by one, followed closely by Jiang Yue.

Compared with previous prefectural and academy examinations, the provincial examinations were quite strict.

Regarding the body search, all outer clothes were taken off and all hair was loose.

The writing brushes, inkstones, paper, inkstones, food, etc. that they brought were carefully checked.

Even Jiang Yue's dried meat was broken into pieces.

After going through many floors, Jiang Yue finally sat down in room number.

At this moment, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At sunrise, the papers were distributed and we started answering the questions.

Jiang Yue glanced over,

The provincial examination is not easy, she needs to be cautious.

After a torturous day, Jiang Yue ate something simple and drank some tea provided by the Imperial Academy. After a quick visit to the toilet at night, she curled up in her cell and fell asleep.

She tossed and turned in sleep at night. The next morning, she felt a sore back and waist. Because the weather was a little chilly in the middle of the night, she was shivering all over.

I stood up and shook my body to make myself feel more alert.

Today is another day of hard work.

At the end, the four horses were long and broad, and the big ones were like eagles. They attacked the Xianyun and reported to Duke Fu.

I guessed the last question correctly.

Jiang Yue pondered for a long time before he started writing.

It is easy to answer because the question is simple and clear, and it is difficult to answer because it is too simple.

Jiang Yue just did what she thought in her heart, doing her best and leaving the rest to fate, whether good or bad.

After the last exam, Jiang Yue had trouble eating and sleeping all day, but finally made it to the end.

When she came out of the examination room, the first thing she saw was Ye Chen, who had gone out early, waiting outside. It was obvious that he had calmed down.

"Jiang Yue, here!" Ye Chen waved to Jiang Yue.

"Master Ye, your anger comes quickly and goes away quickly."

The two of them were in tacit agreement, and did not discuss today's exam questions. They just had a meal together in the restaurant.

Finally, they returned to Jiang Yue’s rented courtyard together, and Ye Chen began to nag again, asking Jiang Yue to come to Qingyun to study with him.

Jiang Yue was extremely annoyed. She didn't expect that this man would move in next door to her and keep pestering her.

Jiang Yue was speechless. After a few days, she still didn't give in.

On the day the results were announced, Jiang Yue and Ye Chen went together.

When the two approached, there was still a crowded crowd.

Gongs and drums roared, and the police cleared the way.

Ye Chen was not as calm as Jiang Yue. He almost lost one of his shoes during the morning walk.

When he reached the bottom of the list, he used all his strength to squeeze in.

Even if Jiang Yue was a calm person, she couldn't remain calm at this moment. She entered the crowd before Ye Chen...

Below the list, some people laughed like crazy, while others were miserable and sad, with tears streaming down their faces.

Some people were mumbling to themselves, looking at the list again and again, and some people fainted on the spot...

"Jiang Yue, Jiang Yue!"

Suddenly, Ye Chen got excited, pulled Jiang Yue, and burst into tears.

"It's a hit, we're a hit!"

Jiang Yue pushed him away and stared at the top of the list, stunned.

Tears welled up in Ye Chen's eyes as he was pulled out of the crowd by Jiang Yue.

"Okay, stop crying."

"I didn't cry." Ye Chen denied it, but he couldn't stop crying.

Jiang Yue was really concerned about her grandmother at home, so after looking at the list, she of course hurried home.

On the way, Ye Chen abandoned his personal servant and let him drive slowly by himself.

Jiang Yue and Ye Chen rode a horse each, riding together.

Along the way, Ye Chen started chattering again, but Jiang Yue didn't hear him the whole time.

They were hungry on the way, so they ate some dry food.

When you are thirsty, drink some mountain spring water. The journey is quick and enjoyable.

At noon, the two men came across a forest on the road.

Seeing that it was almost noon, he stopped, tied up the horse, and prepared to eat some dry food before continuing on his journey.

During this period, a team of soldiers in light armor passed by.

"Captain Wang, there are horses."

"We have horses!" The young general, known as the captain, took a fancy to Jiang Yue and Ye Chen's horses.

"During this chaotic time, there are not enough war horses. How dare you have horses here to relax?"

Jiang Yue thought it was not good when she heard this. She looked at the captain in front of her and saw that he was about thirty years old.

"Horses are a means of transportation. Without them, we will have no chance of returning home." They were not the only two who had horses.

She had bought her horse from Mu Heng. She had raised it at home for several years and had developed feelings for it. She didn't want it to be taken away for no reason.

"Where can our horses relax? Aren't they in a hurry to go home?" Ye Chen was unhappy. It was obvious that these soldiers wanted to buy horses.

However, he was mistaken, as the other party had no intention of buying it at all.

"Take the horses away. Leave your names and addresses. I'll send someone to pay you later!" Following the captain's order, two soldiers stepped forward and pretended to take the horses.

The captain said seriously, "I will pay for it later. Every man has his share of responsibility for the fate of his country!"

Ye Chen became anxious, stepped forward to grab the reins, and refused to let go, but was hit on the chest by a palm.

Jiang Yue quickly blocked the captain's palm and pulled Ye Chen back at the same time.

But then she saw the captain leap onto her horse's back.

The horse felt unwell and neighed.

Ye Chen steadied himself and wanted to seize the horse, but due to his own strength, he did not dare to move forward.

This was the first time Jiang Yue encountered such a thing. She was thinking of a solution when she heard the man's loud voice.

"Don't even think about going home. The barracks are short of people, take them all with you!"

Originally, the military conscription age was fifteen years old, but now during the war, there is a shortage of men at the border, so the age has been reduced to twelve or thirteen.

Jiang Yue felt a chill in her heart... Should she resist or not?

"No, we won't go!" Ye Chen's face turned pale. His childhood sweetheart was waiting for him at home.

"We don't want the horse anymore. You can just take it away."

"If you don't go, you'll be disobeying orders!" the captain said, showing a conscription token in his hand.

He was worried about not being able to recruit soldiers, so he would certainly not give up at this moment.

Jiang Yue shook her head. She was still waiting to reunite with her grandmother, but the next moment, she heard the sound of horse hooves.

Then a young general was seen coming with a group of soldiers and some newly recruited peasant troops.

It can be said that it is huge and mighty.
