Don't think that the pancakes of this world are the pancakes and fruits of Tianjin.

The pancakes here are a bit like Shandong's big round pancakes.

It's just that the batter water on the frying pan has been replaced with soba noodles.

Browned on both sides, by the time they were sold, they had become soft cakes that were soft to step on.

What surprised Gu Zheng the most was that in the Great Zhou Dynasty, pancakes were eaten with garlic.

A head of garlic was taken into the hand by the crazy Taoist, clicked, whew, and with such a refreshing spray, the taste, not to mention how sour it was.

Inexplicably, Gu Zheng missed his own toothbrush and mint-flavored mouthwash.

After he stuffed a whole sheet of cold white open pancakes, all that was left was his resentment about the house here.

There is no quilt, and it all depends on the number of layers of fabric, the Great Zhou Dynasty...... You win.

Gu Zheng spent the most wonderful ten days in this way, in the tasteless steamed cakes and sesame porridge and the cool and breathable futon.

I want to wear it, and I waited for the holding of this year's Spring Festival.

This Chunqiu, also known as the national examination, is very different from the examination in the dynasty where Gu Zheng has experienced the imperial examination, which has been very perfect.

Take, for example, the most obvious number of people.

This time, together with Gu Zheng, the number of people who participated in the examination room of the Ming Jingke was only 800, and the number of candidates who participated in the imperial examination room of the most popular Jinshi Department was only 1,600.

In the middle of this year, there was no notice of the provincial test for the remaining fifty kinds of sub-classifications such as Ming Calculation, Ming Law, and Junshi, so in today's Luoyang, only these more than 2,000 people came to the door of Shangshu Province outside Luoyang Palace.

Here, there is no rule of entering the market before dawn in the later dynasties.

In the interior of the test center in Shangshu Province, the adults who are preparing to preside over this spring festival are still chatting and meeting with great interest.

Taking advantage of the opening of the gate and the two side doors of Shangshu Province, when the inspection team composed of Yu Linwei verified the identity of the tribute students who came to the examination, those examiners were fighting for red faces in Shangshu Province.

What are they fighting for?

Fight for the top prize.

If the current Emperor Wu does not make a clear decree and determines that the second screening of the palace examination will be carried out, the list of the final champions can be determined by relying on the seven or eight officials of Shangshu Province alone.

It's nothing more than who became famous early, who is the son of a powerful clan, or the family of the important member of the dynasty has a son at the right time, and the quota of these champions is to be reserved for these people.

Because who made it that now, among the people who can participate in the imperial examination, 96.7% of the people are from the noble families, even if the remaining percent are considered to be students from 'commoner' background, most of them are Gu Zheng's clients, whose families are landlords with surplus wealth, and who have followed famous teachers and Confucian 'commoners' since childhood?

Therefore, the person who has obtained the status of a person who has completed the township examination is not something that those poor people can hope for.

So this champion, people have booked, what do you have to complain about?

But this time, there was a variable in Dechun, and it was mixed in.

All of a sudden, the number of champions in this Zhongshu province was divided into two different factions.

That is an unknown kid elected by the public by the powerful ministers of the court, Gu Zheng, this is the old housekeeper of Di Gong Di Renjie's family, the first assistant of the dynasty, a few days ago, personally handed over the scroll and named the champion boy.

The other wave of people are all people appointed by the royal family and the nobles with titles.

Although they are only participating in this imperial examination, they are also doing their best to compete for a red ear and a thick neck for the imperial examination of this Ming Jingke.

It's just because they want to open their eyes for the brother of a newly up-and-coming male pet in front of Emperor Wu.

And this male pet was sent to Emperor Wu with Princess Taiping's gritted teeth, and he used to be the most favored man around her...... Zhang Changzong.

This man, who was described as an elegant white lotus in the mouth of Emperor Wu, unfortunately, after he achieved his ambition, he got the quota of Xianggong Gongsheng for his two elder brothers.

And his two elder brothers, one named Zhang Yileng, the second in the family, are honest and honest, and there is only one thought in his heart, that is, to take the examination for a person from a township tribute. Now that his sixth brother has helped him realize it, he is naturally satisfied.

Of course, everyone's champion is not for him.

This champion is for another brother.

Even Gu Zheng, who doesn't care much about gossip, has heard of it, and he is a famous Luoyang noblewoman killer named Zhang Yizhi.

This person has some reputation, and he has been friends with Zhang Changzong since he was a child at home.

Liulang, who stayed in the Zhang family, was favored in the palace for a while, and as Wulang, who was an elder brother, he naturally had to soar to the sky.

Therefore, those nobles who have been more or less instructed by Emperor Wu are like this to call the ministers who hold real power.

This group of high-ranking and powerful old men in the dynasty are blowing their beards and glaring one by one, and their angry eyes are staring.

Just when the two groups of people couldn't hold each other, the timing drum outside the province of Zhongshu struck three times, which means that the tribute students of the classification examination of these two types of subjects have now all taken their seats, just waiting for you to distribute the test papers of this spring.

At this point, the two groups of people who were in a stalemate simply took a step back.

"Since our numbers are evenly matched, I wonder why we simply use the results of this imperial examination to speak. ”

"Didn't you say that Zhang Liulang said in front of Emperor Wu that the two elder brothers of his family were rare people with both intelligence?"

"Let's put the people we recommend, not only these two, if you think you are all good talents, take them together, how about fair competition?"

As soon as the words of this squire were spoken, they were unanimously praised by the ministers, and the person with a little brain on Xungui's side, although he was muttering, but now that he can't fight for results, this is the fairest way.

Even if Emperor Wu asked later, they could also push it on the Zhang family brother together.

They can be ashamed to say that it's not that they don't do their best, it's that the other party doesn't learn enough.

So, the nobles who figured it out, with a wave of their hands, agreed.

At this time, the officials who were waiting for the results of the arguments of the adults in the hall at the door dared to distribute the test papers that had already been held in their arms to all the students who were looking forward to it in turn.

At this time, in Shangshu Province, the two semi-open-air halls on the left and right were already full of people.

There is a simple futon under each person's buttocks, and there is only a low couch in front of which people can kneel and sit, on which there is a set of unified pen, ink, paper and inkstone, which is all that the court can provide for students in the provinces and cities of Zhongshu Province.

Before entering the door, the Yulin guards, because the students do not have to bring their own dry food and luggage, they only need to carefully check their close-fitting clothes to prevent entrainment, and they can be easily released.

Such a relaxed atmosphere in the examination room is rare to see among the later generations.

Therefore, Gu Zheng is still very satisfied with the environment of this examination room.

At least it doesn't have to be like in the Ming Dynasty, it's like going to prison, one lock is three days, and the smell of incense is spent in a small cell of a few square meters.

Nowadays, the spring cold has passed and the weather is getting warmer, and the spring festival between the courtyards of the main hall blown by the breeze is more like a free and unrestrained student event.

When everyone's excitement about entering Shangshu Province for the first time had not calmed down, the factory of the cyan official uniform made all the students in the field quiet.

The clerk who walked to the top of the main hall, holding a thick stack of test papers, followed by his colleagues who distributed them with him, cleared his throat and began to say the requirements of this spring.

"We are here is the main hall of the right side hall of Shangshu Province, and all the students in this courtyard are all selected by various state capitals, and they have passed the township tribute with the title of person. ”

"It's not an exaggeration to say that it's talent from all over the world. ”

"However, after you receive the test papers, I still have to kindly remind you that no cheating is allowed in this Ming Jing exam. ”

"Because, as the invigilators of this time, we will closely inspect the examination process in the whole room. ”

"You must know that the number of admissions to the Ming Economics Department this time is only 35 places. ”

"If you are the townsmen, because of a small mistake, you have taken extraordinary measures for a small question, and you are caught by our officials in charge of invigilation. ”

"Then, not only will you have this year's Ming Jing exam, but this is the end, and the imperial court will enter the list of cheating students into the post-spring record of Shangshu Province. ”

"All the township tributes on this list have been disqualified from the imperial court since then, and since then, there has only been one place for tribute. ”

"As for how your local school administration and parent officials will punish you after returning to your hometown, it is not the responsibility of our Zhongshu Province. ”

Hearing the official say this, many students couldn't help but shudder.

This is equivalent to depriving a reader of his identity.

Or the permanent kind.

Such a student, let alone return to his hometown, just find a moat and throw it in.

Even if he returned to his hometown, it was notorious that there was no way out.

Thinking of this, the students, who were still a little cautious, immediately died down.

With an acceptance rate of 35 out of 800, even if you don't get it, no one will laugh at you too much.

Of course, those talented people who have long been famous don't take it seriously at all.

His own talent is waiting for the test of this moment.
