The county examination is in February next year. The specific time will be announced by the county magistrate in January, allowing scholars to register.
Song Wei has left town school for many years. His former classmates have either moved to higher places or returned home to plow the soil, leaving only a familiar face, Xie Zheng.
He went to the Xie family, intending to ask Xie Zheng what articles were written in their session.
Since vowing in front of the Da Lang couple's graves eight years ago not to participate in the imperial examinations, Song Wei has not cared about the examination topics. Over such a long time, the examiners must have changed multiple times, and each examiner's preferences differ.
Regarding articles, Song Wei has his own insights. It's not that he insists on writing according to the examiners' preferences; he just wants to understand the current affairs through Xie Zheng.
