Those responsible for the provincial examination, Lord Academic Administrators, set off from the Capital in August, heading to each prefecture, conducting exams along the way.
Song Wei calculated that the Lord Academic Administrator would arrive in Ningzhou around late September.
It was only early May now, with still a few months to go before the provincial examination.
With the high expectations from County Magistrate Lu and Prefect Chen before him, combined with his promise to Song Fang, Song Wei dared not slack off and doubled his study hours each day.

She was always so quiet, afraid of disturbing him, she tried hard to make herself as unobtrusive as possible.
After a period of practice, Wen Wan's written characters finally became somewhat presentable.
