Chapter 106
On March [-]th, the Ministry of Rites cleared out the government offices more than half a month in advance, just for the imperial examination on March [-]th.
On this day, all the officials of the Ministry of Rites will inspect the examination room for the last time to see if there is anything wrong.
Two petty officials complained: "It's been a cold wave for the past two days. In the past, it was just a casual examination room. Why do you start to look seriously now?"
The man in the crimson official robe who was walking in front of them turned his head.
He was already fairer than others, but in this dim-witted examination room, this robe made his face look even paler, and his facial features, which had just grown for two years, faded from immaturity, with a little greenness, but more The appearance of the man, but unfortunately there is no smile on his face, he is still a living iceberg.
The two little officials were thinking so.
But he opened his mouth: "The imperial examination is an important event in a student's life, how can it be so careless?"
The junior officials were silent: "Jian Cheng said so."
When Shen Juan turned back, the junior officials looked at each other, thinking in their hearts, this supervisor is indeed a bit stricter.
The servant of the Ministry of Rites walked in the front and beckoned Tang Huai and Shen Juan to come over.
As soon as he left, the two junior officials breathed a sigh of relief: "Why does Shen Jiancheng look more and more indifferent?"
"I heard that his father asked His Majesty to train him a while ago, and there are rumors outside that if it weren't for his son, Mrs. Shen would have asked the emperor to take him down."
"Master Shen was reprimanded for what reason?"
"It's not the old prince Yizhong..."
"Shhhhhh, don't die! What are you talking about that person now?" The familiar official quickly stopped him, "Even if he resigned, we can still talk about it?"
The person who spoke just now had an angry expression on his face: "Why should our Ministry of Rituals wipe the dirty ass of their household department? A funeral said that it should be both grand and concise. Isn't that contradictory!"
The rest fell silent.
Because Shen Juan is back.
It was only then that they heard the attendant of the Ministry of Rites ask: "Is everything cleaned?"
Tang Huai snorted coldly: "What are you doing to clean up so cleanly? It's right for them to suffer. I dare to bet on this kind of thing!"
The servant of the Ministry of Rites just laughed: "When will you change your bad temper? The children are all motivated, I think it's very good, you teach well."
The minister of the Ministry of Rites is a disciple of the cabinet scholar who retired earlier. He has always been respected by literati, and his words are also quite important among literati.
Tang Huai was just afraid that those children would be criticized for their actions, but now he heard that he said it was good, so he didn't pursue it.
Everyone looked at the examination room.
The Minister of Rites counted the number of rooms, and he knew it in his heart: "There are quite a lot of people taking the exam this time."
Tang Huai nodded: "More than 800 people are taking the exam."
If it weren't for those brats who made the bet, there wouldn't be such a big disturbance because of this, and many children from honorable families would have signed up.
There is quite a bit of ambiguity in the scholarly community - noble children and poor family children are often not easy to deal with, so many noble children sign up, if there is someone who is carried down on the spot and then runs around outside the Meridian Gate, wouldn't it be annoying joke?In order to watch their excitement, most of the people who are going to leave next year are also planning to have a try next time this year. It doesn't matter if they pass the exam or not, the main reason is to have fun.
In previous years, only [-] people applied for the exam, but today there are hundreds more.
Everyone is looking forward to it.
On March [-]th, all candidates were waiting outside the official office to enter.
Han Qi, Feng Ziying and their carriages were crowded together, sandwiching Lin Huan's carriage, and the two sang together: "Huanbao, are you ready?"
"Who is our Huanbao, we must be ready."
Lin Huan brushed and raised the curtain: "You two are the only ones who talk a lot."
He only wore unlined clothes and a cloak around his outside. The weather is not too hot at the moment, but it is milder than during the exam in February, but it is still cold in only unlined clothes, not to mention that Lin Huan has always been afraid of the cold. , now his face turned pale.
But he didn't dare to drink more hot tea, he was afraid that he would have to urinate after he went in, so he could only suffer.
Han Qi said: "Didn't Mr. have always had a good relationship with you, why didn't he open a back door for you and tell you to go in first? I think you are going to be cold and stupid."
Lin Huan sneezed: "Mr. is the kind of person who will open the back door for me? Move your little wooden fish's head!"
Han Qi let out a sigh, worried about him after all: "You look like you're going to get sick, have you taken any medicine?"
Lin Huan nodded: "After eating, I got up in the morning and asked someone to pour me a bowl of medicine. I'm sure I won't get sick."
Xie Jing passed by, and couldn't help feeling sour, maybe it was the grass that fed him again.
After waiting for a while, roll call began to line up outside. From now on, those little servants and girls are not allowed to approach the official office anymore, and the students have to go in by themselves.
Lin Huan was carrying his exam basket, and for some reason, it was funny to think of Jia Baoyu when he first entered the Imperial College.
He slowly moved forward in line, and the people in the live broadcast room were still talking to him.
[Yinqiao Pian: Huanbao, Huanbao, can you put the camera in the live broadcast room far away from the proctor?We'll just watch it for a while, it won't affect you at all. 】
[A disagreement: Forget it, turning on the live broadcast will definitely affect Huanbao's thoughts. He was nervous about the exam, so how can he take the exam when his attention is diverted? 】
[Jin Jin doesn't care: Yes, it won't affect you. You know how many black fans we have in the live broadcast room. What if they have bad intentions and intentionally make fun of Huanbao?Huanbao was so nervous last night that she couldn't sleep. If they diverted her attention, she would definitely fail the exam. Forget it. 】
[Speechless: Yes, this is a major event in Huan Bao's life!Even a child can't be vague. 】
Lin Huan said: "I will broadcast it until I go in, and I will show you the environment before the examination papers are issued, and then I will turn it off."
While talking, it was his turn to check.
This examination is similar to the prison inspection. Lin Huan had heard that those who entered the prison, especially the vicious ones—such as Leng Zixing, would be stripped naked when they were imprisoned. To prevent them from committing suicide with razor blades, they don't need to take off their clothes for the imperial examination, but they also have to grope and inspect things like sleeves and soles.
Fortunately, he was only a child, so he didn't really get used to it, but those places that were easy to carry cheat sheets were checked carefully. Lin Huan also saw that the steamed buns and pastries brought by the person in front of him were broken to see if there were any fried rice in them.
Lin Huan looked at the hands of the yamen servants, and silently rejoiced that what he brought was not steamed buns.
[Preoccupied: When I saw steamed buns, I thought of many imperial examination articles about the hero eating instant noodles and cooking small hot pot in the examination room hahaha, everyone around me was crying. 】
[A word of discord: If you play this thing in the real imperial examination, you will be kicked out as soon as you pass the exam. The reason is to affect the exam and cause chaos in the exam room. If you don’t believe me, you brought a pot in the middle and college entrance exams. See if they will let you in. Well. 】
[Runtu and Yu: In the Song Dynasty, the court examinations took nine days and seven nights. At that time, it was possible to cook with a pot, but generally no one would do it, right?There is only so little time for an exam, and some people have no time to write, so you still use a pot to cook?What are you thinking?I'm afraid that the soup won't splash on the test paper or the peeing time is not long enough. 】
[Jin Jin doesn't care: Indeed, in the Song Dynasty, most of the candidates brought dry food, or asked the cook in the examination room to cook for themselves, for fear that the cooking process would burn the number room or stain their hands with the soup in the middle What's more, except for the Song Dynasty, most of the exams in the later dynasties were out in one day, so there was no need to return the whole pot. 】
Lin Huan has been led to his own room.
Generally, room numbers are assigned based on luck. If you are assigned to a slightly worse place, the environment may drive people crazy. Lin Huan doesn't know whether he is lucky or not.
I was lucky because this room was not too close to the invigilator above, so I didn't have to bear the death stare from the invigilator.
The bad luck is because... this room number is pretty small. Fortunately, Lin Huan is only ten years old, so it's okay to take the exam just like this, and he can barely squeeze in.
And more importantly, why!It's near the door!
There are two doors in the examination room, one at the front and one at the front. The front door is the door of the invigilator. The back door was originally sealed, but I don’t know if there was a problem with the temporary door closure or something. The door was not sealed tightly, and it was just spring In the capital not long after, a small wind blew in along the crack of the door.
Just like that, there was a cold wind blowing from the door in front of Lin Huan, and there was also a cold wind blowing from behind, both sides pinched, Lin Huan had just sat down not long ago, and the paper hadn't been handed out yet, he was already half-cooled.
"Ahh-!"
[Sweetheart: ... Huanbao, do you have a cold? 】
[Cabbage Tofu Nao: Huanbao's face is pale, he doesn't really want to catch a cold! 】
[I disagree with each other: ah, what should I do then?take medicine?I also have a strong cold medicine here, it will be effective after taking it, one of Huanbaolai? 】
[Speechless: Come on, it’s not good to take our medicine right now. Although the medicine is strong, it’s all concentrated medicine, so Huanbao will definitely feel sleepy after taking it. Today’s exam is like this one day and one night. Huanbao takes it Take his own pills, otherwise he will take our medicines. With his young physique, he will fall asleep after eating until the exam is over. 】
Lin Huan originally wanted to take another medicine, but after hearing this, he immediately said: "Forget it, I'll just bear it for a while, and I'll just take another one when I go back. Then I'll sleep right away, and the day after tomorrow will be fine." Get up and take the test."
He took out his little felt blanket and wrapped it around his body.
In order to prevent cheating, the felt blanket has no lining, but it is better than wearing only single clothes and shoes.
If the place was not too small and the chairs were too narrow, not the kind of master chairs, Huan Bao would have stuffed the chairs with their feet under the blankets.
At this moment, I can only wait for my feet to cool down, and I can warm myself up when I feel numb.
The papers for the first round were handed out soon.
The door of the number room was tightly closed after the papers were issued, and even the yamen guards locked the outside of the number room to prevent candidates from going out to cheat. If someone needed hot water or something, they would take out the key to open the door.
Lin Huan looked at the test paper, and then took a look at the live broadcast room. No matter how reluctant they were, they immediately turned off the live broadcast room.
He took a deep breath, squeezed the pen in his hand, and began to let himself ignore the coldness on his body, and focused on the paper in his hand.
The county examination lasted for five days, with two small questions and three major questions every day. The small questions were relatively simple, such as interpretation, poetry and prose, and the test was all about basic knowledge.
Lin Huan glanced at it. The first question was about the Four Books. It was just one question. It didn’t even have sentence reading. paraphrase.
The first question of Lin Huan's session was "The way of the university lies in clear virtue, in closeness to the people, and in perfection of righteousness."
This question is from "University".
Lin Huan thought about it.
This question is the easiest question on this paper, but it is also the most difficult to answer - the first thing the examiner sees is this question. If you do not answer this question well, it will not match your handwriting. It looks good, and people won't continue to look down, so although it is simple, it must be refined, and it is best to be linked with the following topics.
This is what Brother Juan taught him.
For a good test paper, the thinking must be consistent. You can’t just write about people’s livelihood in the first question and criticize the system in the second question.
Lin Huan put the clean paper aside first to prevent contamination, and typed a draft on another piece of paper.
"Ah Choo...!" Before writing, he sneezed.
He touched his nose and always felt something was wrong.
