Character Experience

Fan Jin failed in the exam for decades, but due to the promotion of the examiner Zhou Jin, he passed the exam. He was overjoyed and entered a state of madness. (The long-term experience of being despised and insulted, and more than twenty times of failure made him very fragile, and he could no longer bear any great joy or sorrow. "Okay", decades of humiliation and pain are over. "Winning" the coveted fame, fame and wealth)

After recovering, his father-in-law Hu Tutu changed from being dismissive of him to flattering him; the "celebrities" in the same county also started to fawn over him. . It just reflects Fan Jin's tragic character of "being incoherent once he succeeds" and the faces of celebrities who tend to follow others' influence.

After Fan Jin passed the imperial examination, it took three years because of Ding's mother's worries before he went to Beijing to take the imperial examination. A few years later, he was appointed to study Taoism in Shandong. When he was an official, he checked Xunjiu's examination papers and found that he was ranked first in the fourth class.
