When Zhang Chao walked out of the examination room, he felt that his whole body was fluttering. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was too depressing in the examination room, surrounded by a very small space, and it was difficult to even turn it sideways, and he had to turn off the 360° no-dead angle divine scan that he had become instinctive, which made him and an able-bodied person suddenly become astigmatism, myopia and cataract glaucoma, and he felt uncomfortable all over his body.

Walking out of the examination room, the soldiers of the city guards in armor were already lined up in a wall outside, murderous, swords and guns, blocking those waiting domestic servants.

There was once an exam fraud case that shocked Shurima, but it was a killing person, and I don't know how many bigwigs involved in it were imprisoned and investigated, so the current Shurima people are undoubtedly extremely strict in terms of invigilation, and anyone who forcibly breaks into the examination room will be directly executed on the spot regardless of their identity.

There are no parents waiting outside, which is different from the college entrance examination in China.

As the saying goes, the poor are rich in martial arts, and there may still be those who can't afford to hire servants for the children of the poor who participate in the literary examination, but there are almost no who participate in the martial arts examination.

The parents of these candidates are generally well-known figures who will not show their heads outside, and if their children do not perform well, wouldn't it be a joke?

Shurima's exams have always been known for being tricky and difficult, and no one will let out big words before the exam, and no one is sure of this, from this point of view, the nobles of Shurima are well versed in the way of taoguang.

Zhang Chao walked out of the carved beams and paintings, and walked out of the examination room that looked particularly academic from the outside, while looking at the city guards in fiery red armor.

Because the third assessment is the final examination, and the qualified ones are not allowed to participate after the results of the second examination are announced, so Zhang Chao does not need to continue the examination, but can take a day off.

And the day after the third assessment, it is the day of the release of the list, it is said that Emperor Shurima will nod his name and confer an official position, and at that time, it is also the day when he officially holds the ascension ceremony.

Before he had walked a few steps, Senmut greeted him, and it could be seen that he had been waiting in the crowd for a long time, and when he saw Zhang Chao, he immediately waved his hand and said loudly: "Your Excellency, here." ”

Zhang Chao nodded, and walked towards him, and the crowd around him spontaneously lined up by him, and he couldn't touch a meter around him at all.

Seeing Zhang Chao's relaxed face, Senmut thought that he was confident, and hurriedly exclaimed as if he had seen a celestial man: "I didn't expect that Your Excellency even has studied military law, which is really admirable." ”

Zhang Chao nodded, his face became a little embarrassed, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said haha: "Yes, haha, it's a trivial matter." ”

Senmut still wanted to compliment a few words, but Zhang Chao changed the topic very wittily: "This time tomorrow is the time when the second assessment ranking will be announced, and the third assessment will be held the day after tomorrow. ”

Only then did Senmut suddenly say: "When Your Excellency said this, I remembered that today is the time when the slave market opens, and we can go there to have a look. ”

Zhang Chao raised his eyebrows, the slave market is a must-have for all traversers, it is said that the first wave of any traverser is from the slave market, anyway, no matter how illogical it is, people can pick the talents they want from the slave markets that have been selected layer by layer.

But reality is not a novel after all, and he doesn't need to form any forces, so he shook his head: "What are you going to do there, it's better to go to a restaurant, it is said that Shurima's jade shrimp is very famous and suitable for drinking." ”

Senmut was slightly unwilling, and said in a low voice: "But it is said that a group of residents of the Far Eastern Islands will appear in the slave market this time, which is a rare rarity in the whole Shurima. ”

Zhang Chao's pupils shrank slightly, and the Far Eastern Islands ...... Isn't that Ionia!

――――――――

The bright moon hung high, and in the most central courtyard of the examination room, the white-haired examiner was sitting upright on a bare chair and carefully reviewing the candidates' test papers.

He sat in an extremely upright position, and the decorations on the table were extremely neat, and even the circles and comments on the examination papers that were almost never looked at again were beautifully written.

He was Nagour, the chief examiner of the Dynasty Exam this time.

As a veteran general in the army, Nagpur was one of the few officials in the court who had been in the sea during the emperor's time, and he was extremely upright, and soon after Azir succeeded to the throne, he was transferred from the army and became the consul of the imperial city.

The Imperial City Archon is equivalent to the original Chang'an Mansion Yin, which basically belongs to the kind of position second only to the cabinet minister, and will definitely be reused, but Nagopur, the Imperial City Archon, has been in office for more than 30 years and has never been promoted, which makes a lot of people who think he will rise to the top.

Without him, this person is extremely upright in terms of personal integrity and temperament, and has never been criticized for corruption and bribery, but his temper is too upright, which has offended many dignitaries.

For example, he once personally beheaded the son of a marquis who raped a woman, and the emperor even sent down the edict of the queen's trial, but he rushed into the prison single-handedly on the grounds that he was not in the palace, and directly executed the son of the marquis on the spot.

This was very shameful for Azir, and the marquis happened to be his cronies, so Azir was furious and almost took Nagopur into prison, but was fortunately stopped by Zelas.

However, Rao was like this, and Azir was also angry, and he had not mentioned Nagopur's name in the court for all these years, but he had never moved his position, so he stayed in this springboard position that should have been able to rise to the top for thirty years.

So let him be the main proctor, not only Azir trusted, but also the nobles and commoners.

Today, however, there was an incident that made him quite angry, the emperor actually broke the rules himself, and signaled to him that a nephew of the Grand Duke named Lashka had been appointed by him as the first name.

"How can this be reasonable!" Nagopur's old face was full of anger, "The world is His Majesty's world, even he can't be fair, how can he expect others to do it!"

"If the old man really follows his intentions, won't he bury the old man's Qingming wind for decades!"

His wife, a young lady from an aristocratic family, was extremely like-minded with Nagopur, not only had the same simple and upright style of life, but also was extremely supportive of her husband's career, even if Nagopur had been in this position for a long time.

Nagopur's wife is also very old, and she has a lot of expenses to live on, and she can't take care of herself at all.

"Lord Fujun is angry, the Imperial Trial Book is the medium used by His Majesty to take scholars, and if he wants to reuse someone, he doesn't need to go through this channel at all. ”

"Besides...... Your Excellency, you have been in this position for thirty years, and in thirty years, Your Majesty has never sent you a message, this time...... It's time to reconcile with Your Majesty. ”

Nagopur was furious, and just wanted to assert his refusal, when he suddenly saw his old wife's wrinkled hands, he was slightly stunned, and vaguely remembered that the last time he noticed his old wife, her hands were still so smooth and delicate, but now they have aged like this......

Nagodour's face suddenly darkened, he nodded silently, and let out a long breath: "You go down and rest, I have my own decision." ”

His wife smiled, placed the cup full of warm tea on Nagopur's table, and stepped back.

Nagopur hesitated to open the exam paper with Lashka's name on it, and slowly opened it.

His face was relieved at first, and he sighed: "Alas, the person Your Majesty values really still has two brushes, but it is not a gentleman......

However, when he saw the answer to the next question, his face turned dark, and he was very angry, and he just wanted to put a big cross on it, but suddenly realized something, and finally just sighed and continued to read.

However, the more he looked at it, the darker his face became, almost all the criminal law questions Zhang Chao answered "should be punished", and almost all the Lingqi questions he answered "beat the drum and march", especially later, when he saw the line of smeared handwriting, when there were six big words, a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out.

"Shaft!"

His eyes widened, and the foul language that had not exploded since he was transferred to civilian duty in thirty years broke out again!

"I'll go to your uncle, don't do it!"
