Chapter 4 Admission Examination
Three days later, Chengtian Academy.
Early in the morning, although the gate of the academy was still closed, the square in front of the academy was already full of students who had come to take the exam.
Zhao Xiaojun stood in the Zhao family and looked around, estimating that there were about 10,000 candidates.
To select 300 people from these 10,000 people, Rao is Zhao Xiaojun was full of self-confidence before, and he was also a little muttering at this time.
At the end of the day, with the melodious sound of bells coming from the courtyard, the gate of the academy slowly opened.
A middle-aged man in a dark robe walked out surrounded by everyone.
"The big exam of Chengtian Academy has officially begun, please enter in an orderly manner after receiving the number plate. ”
Although it was far away, the man's voice clearly reached everyone's ears, and it seemed that this was also a monk in the Jindan stage.
"It's Mr. Li Haojun!"
Apparently, someone recognized the man in Xuanyi, and then the entire application team was surprised one after another.
On the Zhao family's side, someone asked Zhao Ziyu.
"Qishao, who is Li Haojun?"
"Li Haojun, one of the four major teachings of Chengtian Academy, is in charge of the Law Hall. ”
Zhao Ziyu replied with a look of admiration:
"More than a hundred years ago, he entered Chengtian Academy as the second place in the first list, and he was a master of the Central Plains Dynasty. ”
Zhao Xiaojun leaned his ears and listened, and was also shocked, every time Chengtian Academy entered the academy, the number of people was not less than 10,000.
And these 10,000 people brought together almost all the young elites in the northwest, southwest, and central regions of the Central Plains Dynasty.
In this environment, you can still take the second test, what kind of character can really do it.
......
After queuing up to receive the number plate, according to the arrangement of Chengtian Academy, the first thing to do is the literary examination.
When I walked to a building, I looked up and saw the word Wenyuan on the door.
Although it is also a four-story loft, it is difficult to fit a whole 10,000 people no matter how you look at it.
Zhao Xiaojun was located in the middle and rear of the team, watching the people in front of him enter the attic one after another, but the whole team showed no signs of slowing down, and couldn't help but be a little curious.
Finally, after Zhao Xiaojun stepped into the door, the scenery was in a trance, and he couldn't see what it looked like outside at all.
The whole hall alone has to keep up with the Zhao family's school field, and the floors are going up one floor at a time, and the lower floors are already full of candidates, but when you look up, you really don't know how many floors there are.
Zhao Xiaojun thought about it, this must be the technique of Sumeru mustard seeds that Fifth Uncle Mo Wei often said.
Chengtian Academy is really not ordinary.
......
It wasn't until the last candidate took his seat that the entire building seemed to be completely isolated from the outside world as the door of Wenyuan Pavilion closed.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Xiaojun felt that his five senses were gradually disappearing, and slowly, Zhao Xiaojun seemed to have entered a dream.
"Xiaojun, why did you fall asleep. ”
In a trance, Zhao Xiaojun heard someone calling him, opened his eyes, and the familiar scenery came into view, it was Lintao Township.
"Ah, why did you fall asleep? ”
After snorting, Zhao Xiaojun made a grimace at the companion who woke him up.
Looking at the test paper in front of him, Zhao Xiaojun remembered that there was an exam going on now.
After carefully reviewing the question, Zhao Xiaojun breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he was still familiar with the topic, and at least he could answer it decently.
didn't have to think about it, Zhao Xiaojun began to write hard.
......
In Xinfeng School, Yang Haochuan looked at the test paper in front of him boredly, yawned, and said to his own teaching:
"Sir, can you come up with something new?"
Jiao Xi shook his head with a wry smile, but didn't say anything.
"Alas!"
After a sigh, Yang Haochuan still picked up the pen and answered the question, and the pen walked without pausing.
......
Somewhere in Wenyuan Pavilion, on a huge light curtain in front of Li Haojun, scene after scene was constantly flickering.
If you pay close attention, you will find that each scene is a microcosm of the candidate's learning career in recent years.
......
Stretching, Zhao Xiaojun handed over the finished test paper to the podium, turned around and walked out the door.
I didn't think much about it, so I followed the trajectory of my daily life and returned to the courtyard to start meditating and practicing qi.
In the Longyuan Pavilion, in the storage ring around Zhao Xiaojun's neck, the dragon-shaped jade pendant had already suspended itself in the storage space.
began to emit ripples around it continuously.
......
Time passed bit by bit, and just as Li Haojun was about to retract his senses, a question came from behind him:
"Haojun, how are the students of this class?"
Hearing the voice, Li Haojun withdrew his divine sense, turned around and saluted:
"Mr. Hui's words, there are still some interesting people. ”
The only person who can make Li Haojun call "Mr." is Xun Ke, the dean of Chengtian Academy.
Immediately after, Li Haojun continued:
"Generally speaking, the descendants of each family will still be the main source of students this time, then the side branches of each family, and finally the disciples of the cold family. ”
After listening to Li Haojun, Xun Ke sighed and said:
"In the past, Emperor Wen founded the four courts of the world, which was intended to be widely educated, and there was no class ...... education"
Although Xun Ke didn't finish speaking, Li Haojun already knew what the teacher meant.
When he was young, Li Haojun played with his temperament and had a conflict with his family, and ran to Chengtian Academy.
But after all, he was a member of the Hongnong Li family, and later as he grew older, although he never went home, his bond with the family became deeper and deeper.
Now Li Haojun also understands more and more the choice of the family back then, some time ago, his mother wrote to say that his father's health was deteriorating, and he finally planned to go home to see his parents.
It is precisely because he was born in a family that Li Haojun understands that the so-called children of the poor family are just a piece of cloth that everyone uses to cover their shame.
Does Xun Ke not understand this? He must know better than Li Haojun, but ......
Seeing that Li Haojun was silent, Xun Ke didn't say anything, but said:
"I know that many people have already greeted you, and some things are inevitable, but after all, you have to give the world a hope. ”
Li Haojun understood what his teacher meant, and at this point, although the starting point was different, Li Haojun didn't want some waste to be mixed into Chengtian Academy at will.
"Rest assured, Haojun has his own measure. ”
Seeing this, Xun Ke didn't say anything more, sighed and turned to leave.
Li Haojun looked at Xun Ke's back, and there was a lot of sourness in his heart.
Although the status of the four courts in the world is transcendent, it is still subordinate to the imperial court system, Xun Kegui is the president of Chengtian Academy, and his knowledge and cultivation are the top existence of the entire Central Plains Dynasty.
However, even so, there are still many things that he can't control, such as this recruitment, although Xun Kegui is the dean, the chief examiner is not something he can appoint, but is appointed by Emperor Ling himself.
Similarly, he, Li Haojun, as the chief examiner, naturally has to take into account human relations on the basis of relative fairness.
This world, after all, is not the world of scholars, but the world of the emperor, and it is even more ......
The world of the family.
