Looking at each other and smiling, the little official's feet have already stepped forward, and the smile dissipates when the footsteps fall.

Xue Qing looked at him, he didn't care about Xue Qing's gaze, he stopped beside a Xiliang examinee, poured tea, but his gaze was looking at the examinee's several cases.... His brow furrowed slightly, and he continued to walk forward.... Inspected every Xiliang candidate and left.

This person exists specifically for Xiliang candidates, I don't know how the Xiliang candidates answered, Xue Qing glanced at the two people beside him... This time Suo Shengxuan did not sit beside her, but far away, the closest to her were the other two Xiliang teenagers, one on the left and one in the back, both teenagers lowered their heads and wrote seriously, their expressions were very calm and they couldn't see their thoughts, but they could tell from the speed of writing, and it seemed that the answer was not so smooth.

Xue Qing looked at the other side, Pei Yanzi was consistent, and there seemed to be no problem, and Zhang Shuangtong Lin Xiucai in the distance was relaxed and casually, and his brows were furrowed.... That's all problematic.

A scribe walked over from the side, and Xue Qing raised his hand slightly and whispered, "Please give me another piece of straw paper." ”

It turned out to be a straw paper, looking around... The scribe nodded and took out two pieces of straw paper for her, Xue Qing nodded and thanked her, and continued to sit upright and carefully draw and count on the straw paper.

...

......

There are more candidates who hand in the papers, and the test papers sent to the examiners in the side hall are gradually increasing, and the examiners who were originally chatting and laughing began to check separately, and Mr. Qingxia is also among them, although he is famous for teaching, but he once presided over a water conservancy repair, and the local shrine is still for him.

“... No, I didn't even answer much..."

“... This one has written a lot... Well... It's almost all wrong..."

“... Mr. Liao, this candidate only answered Kanyu... It's up to you to judge. ”

“.... This examinee has a good arithmetic answer...."

The examiners are scattered, more examiners than the two subjects of Lile this time, each reviewing the questions they are responsible for, the papers are circulated between the seats from time to time, and the evaluation of mathematical arts is also the simplest, right is right, wrong is wrong, straightforward and simple, the examiners are relaxed and casual, looking at the papers and drinking tea and laughing.

Mr. Qingxia's expression was a little serious, and there were not many scrolls in front of him... There are not many questions about water conservancy and irrigation, and there are even fewer people who answer, and his eyes are more focused on the exam number...... Although it is a vague name and only gives an exam number, how can things in the world be absolute, of course he knows which number Xue Qing is.

At present, there is no Xue Qing who has submitted the papers.

"How many more candidates?" asked Mr. Qingxia.

An examiner got up and walked to the side hall door to look at the main hall here, and said, "Not much, there are more than thirty." He turned back and smiled at everyone, "It seems that the rest are all high-level talents." ”

An examiner sighed with a teacup and said, "Dingzhou Donggu must be among them." ”

When it comes to this person, the examiners laugh even more.

“... Of course Dong Gu is fine... I've seen it myself. ”

“... And astronomical calendars, hydrology, and he's also proficient in them."

“... So, can he get full marks for this math art?"

Hearing this, the examiners who were laughing all fell silent, and then laughed again.

"Full marks..."An examiner shook his head and took another sip of tea, "Although I don't dare to say how talented I am, if you want to get a full score for this mathematical art paper, only about one person can do it...... Mr. Xu Hou. ”

Mr. Qingxia's expression was solemn and straightened.

"Mr. Xu Hou. An examiner said, his voice a little stunned, "I haven't heard this name for a long time." ”

"I heard that Mr. Xu Hou explored the miracle of ancient Dayu's water control and drifted away. ”

"I've heard it's an unfortunate overboard..."

"Mr. Xu Hou will not be unfortunate even if he falls into the water.... Mr. Xu Hou once floated in the river for three days and was at ease, okay?"

"It is said that Mr. Xu Hou Wencheng is the best in the world in martial arts?"

"It's still said, that is. ”

"Speaking of which... Mr. Qingxia studied under Mr. Xu Hou. ”

The eyes in the hall all looked at Mr. Qingxia, and Mr. Qingxia nodded in response, and said, "I had the honor to listen to Mr. Xu Hou's lecture for three months, and I learned the theory of the five elements, so that I could cure the troubles of the three mountains and six rivers in Yuntai." ”

In three months, you can do this, which shows Mr. Qingxia's intelligence and Mr. Xu Hou's awesomeness, and the examiners are even more stunned.

"It's a pity that I haven't seen Mr. Xu Hou in the world for ten years...."

"Back then, the first emperor wanted to make him a marquis..."

"Do you follow Qin Tangong's example?"

Someone said with a smile, but as soon as this remark came out, there was no one around, but his expression was slightly annoyed, and the sight around him was like a sharp arrow.

"How can Mr. Xu Hou be able to laugh. Someone even opened his mouth to scold.

The man had already blushed and apologized.

"The people don't know Xu Hou, how can we and other scholars not know, Mr. Xu Hou is a hermit, but he explains how many scriptures are transmitted, although we don't see his face and don't hear his voice, we also benefit a lot. An examiner said.

Mr. Qingxia said: "Mr. Xu Hou doesn't like words, he doesn't like to sit with people, and the lectures were hung with curtains at that time, and he used painting instead of talking... His calligraphy and paintings are more moving than words. ”

"Yes, yes, I have seen Mr. Xu Hou's words and paintings... Tell the book with calligraphy and painting.... It's incredible. ”

“.. I've seen his games..."

The hall suddenly became noisy, the sound penetrated the side hall and spread to the main hall, some candidates looked at it in puzzlement, looked over, the ceremonial officer glared at him, with a little warning, and walked to the side hall.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there are still exams outside. He reminded.

Only then did the examiners calm down, and they were a little embarrassed, and asked, "... After reading it all, will anyone still hand in the papers?", the topic was revealed.

......

......

Do you hand in the papers... It seems that the Xiliang candidates are willing to answer all the questions, well, is it really that powerful? Xue Qing pinched the pen silently, and looked at Zhang Shuangtong sitting in front of him holding the pen with one hand, and pointing his fingers with the other, clicking and writing once.... Laughing, it's really the same in ancient and modern times.

The familiar footsteps came again, Xue Qing's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the little official carrying the kettle who appeared, the little official didn't seem to notice her sight, and only walked slowly along a few cases.... The other candidates walked by with a good line of sight in front of them, only stopped at the Xiliang candidates, raised their heads to look at Xue Qing, their chin raised slightly, and their slender eyes provoked... It's so naked and unabashedly arrogant.

Xue Qing smiled at him.

The little official looked at her, carrying the teapot in one hand and the teacup on the candidate's table in the other, and at that moment his fingers were slightly cocked.....

Xue Qing's eyes condensed slightly, and he seemed to hear a snapping sound in his ears, and a ball of paper slipped from his sleeve along his fingers through the teacup and landed on the candidate's desk.

Not.... Cheating, Xue Qing looked at the little official, sure enough, the villain.

The little official put down the teacup and smiled at Xue Qing.

Cheating is cheating, and laughing, it's really arrogant.

Xue Qing smiled at him, retracted his gaze, and continued to look at his still blank test paper seriously.... I know that Xiliang people are really eager to win, they can win if they can, and if they can't win, they have to win by means, and after waiting for so long to get their means, well, it seems that this guy doesn't mind her seeing.

Is it because she's sure she's not going to raise her hand to tell the public?

The footsteps are paraded in the side hall, the footsteps are not just his own, the ceremonial officer sits down on the high platform, and the scribe in charge of supervision is still patrolling the hall, although there are not many candidates left, although the seats are a little scattered, but ten people look at more than 30 candidates It is very relaxed, and there is nothing to see, and the entrainment of the mathematical arts exam is not easy to entrain.

The feet are crossed, the body is brushed, the scribes are passing through the candidates, and the small officials are also walking among the scribes, relaxed and casual... arrogant, the paper ball is also in the hands of the Xiliang candidates.... Xue Qing raised her hand, and the scribes who walked around looked at her, their eyes condensed from front to back, left and right, and the little official who had just stood beside Xue Qing next to the Xiliang examinee leaned down and stopped slightly.

"Give me another answer sheet... I used the original one for the calculus. Xue Qing said to the scribes who came over.

Counting art is inevitable, the scribe nodded and turned around to get it.

"I want it too. Over there, Zhang Shuangtong also raised his hand.

A scribe who was walking up to him looked down at his paper and frowned, there was already a lot written on the answer sheet... But what is this all about?

"I checked out a mistake. Zhang Shuangtong said, pinching his fingers by the way.

The scribe glared at him, the correct answer was judged by the examiners, and he couldn't use this as a reason to drive away the candidate, after all, this kid answered the question seriously and turned around to get the paper.

The scribes walked around, and the little clerk who poured tea couldn't stand beside the Xiliang examinee for a long time, and after pouring the tea, he stepped forward, but stepped to the right to the front of Xue Qing's case, and looked at Xue Qing again condescendingly, and Xue Qing also looked at him and smiled.

"I don't want tea. She said.

The little official smiled at her: "Okay." "The voice is still pleasant and clear.

He continued to take a step to the right, one step at a time, and stood beside the candidate on Xue Qing's right, leaning over to pour tea, and raising his sleeves with his hand..... A paper ball crossed Xue Qing's head from the wind and headed towards the Xiliang examinee over there.... Xue Qing raised his hand violently.

"Ah, add an extra piece of straw paper. She said to the scribe who was walking in front of her, her voice full of apologies, "I was dizzy, I forgot." ”

The weak and delicate young man looked uneasy and apologetic, and he was about to faint after reading the title of this paper, not to mention that he had been doing the question for so long, the clerk nodded and turned around and took a few more pieces of paper.

Xue Qing took it with both hands and put it down, her table was scattered with straw paper rolls, each piece of paper densely written or outlined various lines.... How serious he was, the scribe nodded with satisfaction and walked away.

Xue Qing piled up the straw paper scattered on the table, stacked it, horizontally, vertically, and tiled, and then unfolded the answer sheet, flipped through the stacks of straw paper and picked up the pen, and there were footsteps that stopped beside her, and her eyes were like knives..... Xue Qing looked at the straw paper seriously, glanced at the answer and wrote an answer, was engrossed in self-forgetfulness, didn't know the line of sight around, didn't know the footsteps around him, raised his head after writing in one breath, and several candidates walked in the hall, Lin Xiucai also got up and walked out, Zhang Shuangtong squeezed his eyebrows at Lin Xiucai's back....

Xue Qing raised his hand and sneezed, Zhang Shuangtong looked back, Xue Qing got up: "I'm done." ”

The nearby scribe nodded at her, Xue Qing put away the paper and walked towards the official with the roll, and when he walked to Zhang Shuangtong's side, he staggered and scattered, and the straw paper roll in his hand was scattered, and he let out a low cry.

Looking at the eyes all around, Xue Qing hurriedly squatted on the ground to pick up ..... Zhang Shuangtong on the side was busy and also reached out to help.

"Misahiro, be careful. He said, "I'm going to finish my answer, and you're waiting for me outside." ”

The scribes on both sides came over and reprimanded: "Don't speak, sit down." "After answering anything, this guy is not ashamed of what he said.

Xue Qing pressed Zhang Shuangtong's hand: "No need, I'll just come by myself.... Hurry up and answer the questions. ”

Zhang Shuangtong was stunned for a moment, then snorted, raised his hand and waved it back: "You're welcome, then you can go quickly." Then sit back cross-legged.

The scribe had already come over and picked up the remaining two, Xue Qing thanked him ashamedly, handed the roll of paper to the scribe and stepped aside, walked along the side to the door, and just stepped out of the door, one foot stuck out from behind the pillar..... Xue Qing raised his foot and stepped on.... The feet did not step on them, but the two shoes against each other.

The soap boots are old, the cloth shoes are slightly gray, and the two tips are side by side.

The little official leaning on the pillar leaned sideways, and the corners of his mouth were curved: "Young Master Qingzi is so skilled." ”

Xue Qing smiled: "Each other." ”

The little official said: "Young Master Qingzi, you are not small, dare to use it when you get it?"

Xue Qing nodded, looked at him and said, "I believe in you." ”

The little official also looked at her and said, "Young Master Qingzi is really shameless." ”

Xue Qing said: "The class gate has an axe, the class gate has an axe." ”

The two whispered two or three sentences, and Zhang Shuangtong's voice came from the hall.

“.... Give me an answer sheet..."

“... Didn't you just give you one?"

“... I checked it again and found out that it was wrong again... My lord, I take exams very seriously..."

“.. Shut up.. Don't make a noise..."

The muttering sound disappeared, and there was silence inside.

Xue Qing turned her head to look inside, and the little official also leaned over to look at it, the two of them were close to each other, the little official sighed twice, and the breath brushed her face.

"One side of the water and soil raises the other side. He said.

Xue Qing said: "I think it's more appropriate to be close to Zhu and red and black to ink." ”

The little official looked at her, his eyes narrowed slightly, and Xue Qing also looked at him, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and the sound of footsteps came from within.

"VII. Creak. ”

Voices and footsteps alike.

Xue Qing and the little officials all looked over and saw Suo Shengxuan standing at the door with a happy expression on their faces.

"Young Master Qingzi, you are so powerful, you finished answering earlier than me. His gaze fell on Xue Qing and said.

Xue Qing smiled at him: "It's okay, it's not very difficult." ”

Ahh

Suo Shengxuan's expression was suddenly uneasy, and he looked at the little official who wanted to speak and stopped, Xue Qing smiled at him: "I'll go over there first and take a rest." "Walked away.

Seeing the young man walking slowly in the afternoon sun, Suo Shengxuan stepped over and stood beside the little official, his eyebrows fluttering: "Qi Niang, what were you talking about just now? Did you introduce yourself? Did you make friends? What do you think?"

The little official sneered: "I think I've never seen such a shameless person, it's really an honor!"

.....

.....

The ceremonial officer brought in the last scroll.

"Alright, that's the end of today's exam. "The last candidate has turned in his papers." ”

The examiners smiled and nodded, and they all said yes.

"I didn't expect so many people to make it to the end. ”

"Rightly or wrongly, more than thirty papers are full. ”

"I really didn't expect that so many candidates are proficient in mathematical arts..."

“.. This one.. Twenty people are Xiliang candidates. ”

These words made the joke suddenly freeze.... What's this.....

"It's okay to answer full, let's see how the answer goes. Some examiners laughed.

The examiners stopped laughing and began to concentrate on grading, they had seen almost the same before, and the remaining more than 30 sheets were mainly circulated among the examiners, each of them reviewing the questions they were responsible for, mixed with admiration or surprise, of course, there were regrets, and when the sun was getting darker, the final results were counted.

"There were thirty equal divisions. The ceremonial officer said.

Six or more is superior, and mathematical arts are different, which is already very good.

"There are twenty-one perfect marks. The ceremonial officer continued.

Because of the different parts judged, the examiners were not very clear about the final score of the paper they read, and they were surprised when they heard it.

"That's so many!"

"Unexpected, unexpected. ”

"Not bad, not bad. ”

Surprised, rejoiced, and urged.

"Hurry up and announce the names, and see who are the talents?"

The ceremonial officer looked at the name corresponding to the checked number plate, his expression became complicated, and he raised his head and said, "Nineteen of them are Xiliang candidates. ”

The side hall froze again, and the examiners' expressions were shocked and complicated.

"It seems that the Xiliang candidates have really worked hard. An examiner sighed and raised his hand, "Admire and admire." ”

"I don't know what famous teachers they invited?" also asked the examiner curiously, "This mathematical art is not the main focus of scholars." "After all, there is no examination for the imperial examination, so it is good for scholars to occasionally dabble, and to get a full score in mathematics including astronomical and geographical counting, it is not a hard work to do it.

But no one can answer this question.

"Anyway, Xiliang admires my Da Zhou Shuyi, which is also my Confucian glory. ”

"The saint teaches the power of enlightenment. ”

Everyone said one after another, revealing the slightly embarrassing atmosphere.

"Who, nineteen, which of the remaining two?" someone asked.

Everyone looked at the ceremonial officer, who looked at the name on the paper and read: "Xue Qing, Zhang Shuangtong." ”

The words rang out in the hall.

"How.." Mr. Qingxia blurted out, and only then did he realize the gaffe and stopped.

Everyone looked at him, and someone reacted and stretched out his hand to point at Mr. Qingxia and said, "Ah, this is a candidate from Chang'an Mansion, a student of Mr. Qingxia!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions were sudden.

"It turned out to be a student of Mr. Qingxia. ”

"No wonder, no wonder. ”

"What am I going to say? ”

The joy and joy in the hall overshadowed the previous excitement because of the Xiliang candidates, almost all of whom scored full marks.

Mr. Qingxia looked strange in the face of everyone's praise and asked, how could this be possible! It was precisely because he was his student that he knew how these two guys could get full marks in mathematical arts!

What the hell is going on?

......

.....

There was a loud laugh tearing eardrums in front of the official list.

"This is, there is green smoke on the grave of my Zhang family's ancestors!"
