Lian Musu was somewhat helpless, "Lian Mu has checked it."
"Just that one..." The word "time" almost slipped out, but Minister Jia hurriedly held back, almost losing his self-control.
He had personally witnessed Lian Musu write the final character, set down the pen, calmly waited for the paper to dry, gathered it up, and looked over it just once, only once!
Not even a copy had been made!
During the imperial examination, not to mention submitting the manuscript early, even the ample time of a full day didn't seem enough; contenders fought for every moment.
Even those with clear thoughts who finished writing early had no intention of submitting early; they wished they could check and recheck three or four times, fearing that a new inspiration might emerge that if not written down, would be regretted for life; they determined to continue until the very last moment.
