Jiang Caixiu's emotions were very unstable.
He was originally very confident that he could get a scholarship, so he did not even take the county magistrate and the officials in the capital seriously. He felt that he could do it himself.
Unexpectedly…
Reality slapped him hard.
He was in a hurry to return, not for anything else, but for Yan Danqiu.
The exam would take three years.
Feeling the urgency of the situation, Jiang Caixiu couldn't afford to wait any longer.
He believed that by establishing a connection with Yan Danqiu, who possessed influence with the lords in the capital, he could navigate a shortcut to success. His envisioned path involved obtaining an official position, potentially earning meritorious recognition. Alternatively, even without meritorious achievements, he believed that the right connections would provide opportunities to advance steadily and make significant strides.
Driven by these ambitions, he returned.
