Chapter 50: Awakening from the Dream

At the front of the crowd, Sun Siwen stood on a bullock cart, constantly bowing to the townspeople, saying something with a face full of accomplishment and pride.

Lu Yuan laboriously pushed through the crowded people and finally heard clearly.

"Fellow elders, fortunately protected by our ancestors, and with your support, I have become a juren in this imperial examination. In the future..."
