At the registration office, the crowd is crowded, you push and pull, scrambling, for fear that they will not be able to register and will not be able to participate in this imperial examination, so they will not be able to compete for those places.

Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver.

That's a lot of money, who doesn't want it, as the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, money can make people crazy, and the premise of these is to study, take the imperial examination, be an official, and finally earn silver.

This is a real villain, and the hypocrite is secretly holding silver, pretending that I am not that kind of person on the surface, money treats me like a floating cloud, I regard money as dung, sanctimonious, very hypocritical, hypocrite is talking about such a group of people.

Of course, there is no shortage of people who are really officials for the sake of being officials, officials for the people, and officials for the country, but there are very few people of this kind, very few, such as the steel of this era, which is rare to see in a hundred years, and has gone through thousands of exercises and thousands of beatings before it has gradually become today's hundred steel.

"Be quiet for the official, don't you want to take the exam?"

An official shouted angrily, he really can't get used to these insulting scholars, where have all the benevolence, righteousness, and etiquette you learned gone, and where have all the humility and politeness in your mouth gone? Gave it back to your teacher?

He roared, and the people who signed up below were just stunned for a moment, and after a while, they returned to their original state, the noisy ones were still noisy, the ones who signed up were still registered, and the queues were still cut in line there, and there were a lot of people who watched the excitement.

This official is angry, what kind of attitude do you have, are you despising this official?

"You can't hear it, can you? Be quiet with the official, believe it or not, the official will cancel your qualifications. ”

“……。”

"Hurry up ahead, don't hesitate, waste time."

"Yes, can the people in front not be so procrastinating, don't you know that time is short? Can you not be so procrastinating, isn't it just to sign up, hurry up. ”

The people in the back urged the people in front to hurry up, the people in front listened to a sentence that was bearable, listened to the second sentence and was a little angry, the third sentence, the fourth sentence, couldn't help it, especially those who had just come up and had not written their names yet, they were constantly urged by the people behind, holding the pen and turning around and roaring: "What is the noise, you won't come sooner if you have the ability." ”

After that, he quickly wrote his name, and it was the turn of the next person, and the people behind looked at this gentleman so much, and dared to yell at him, especially this person was dressed in cloth and a hillbilly, this is okay, dare to bully us Chang'an people, don't you want to mix here.

When he walked out, he glared at him fiercely, and the gentleman was not weak, and glared back, this is still ...... It's still there, the scholar pulled up three or five friends around him, surrounded this person, and prepared to do a big fight, the momentum was violent, and the officials who maintained order above were angry, just forget it if you don't obey, you still want to fight, right?

Don't you know that this is the territory of the Lord? If you dare to make trouble, don't you want to live, you don't want to live, and you don't want your official to live, right? This official was furious and said angrily: "You arrested those people and put them directly in Dali Temple Prison, and you didn't let them out until the day of the exam." ”

"Remember to pass that on to me, huh."

The soldiers hurriedly went up, and couldn't help but say that they had stopped those troublemakers, and within three seconds, the soldiers were imprisoned and taken away directly, and they couldn't even say a word of rebuttal, so quickly, the thunder was furious, and the soldiers below were silent, worried, and quickly lined up, and in an instant, the venue became orderly, orderly, and orderly.

The official looked very accomplished, that's it, the official is really a sick cat if he doesn't exert his authority, he glanced at the soldiers below, he continued: "You have to listen to the official, if anyone can't get along with the official, the official will not be polite to him, those people are your example, I hope you don't follow in their footsteps." ”

After that, he turned around directly, very chic, and the soldiers below bowed their heads and waited quietly, no longer noisy, reported their names, and left directly, one after another, one after another, and left one after another.

The registration time lasted until the evening, and when there was really no one, it was closed, and then the next day, it began to appear there again, compared to the first day, the second day was the same number of people, the official stood there, no one made trouble, after all, with yesterday's example, they didn't dare to make trouble, and signed up quietly.

On the second day, there were a lot of people from the poor family, and the scholars almost all reported their names on the first day, and on the second day, those who had endured a day of patience came to sign up early, compared to the scholars, these children of the poor family had a lot of peace, and the officials were very satisfied with this, although he was a child of a big family, but he was most unaccustomed to those scholars.

The second day of registration began in the early morning and ended at about seven or eight o'clock in the evening, and the excitement dispersed, and on the third day, there were fewer people than the first day and the second day, but it was also busy enough, and there was no one at five or six o'clock.

Calculate the people who came to sign up, roughly calculated, had a rough idea in my heart, and calculated again, there were still some mistakes, the third time, the fourth time, and came up with a few different answers, he calculated again, calculated almost ten times in a row, and finally got a relatively accurate quota, almost 20,000 people, this number appeared, but he was shocked.

"So many people?"

After the shock, he quickly recovered, after all, he only managed the number of applicants, and the rest was not under his control, and he was not qualified to take care of it, all the data were listed, written into a fold, and submitted it, this fold soon came to the hands of Zhang Daan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Zhang Daan looked at this fold with satisfaction, and said: "There are still a lot of people?" It seems that there are still many opportunities to achieve fame? ”

"What do you think you should do?"

His eyes looked at those officials, he put away the folds, went to the palace to hand it over to His Majesty, set off overnight, entered the palace, came to the palace, he knelt down for the first time, and said: "Your Majesty, the number of people in the imperial examination has been counted, a total of more than 20,000 people, including more than 10,000 children of the Han family, and the others are ......." ”

At this point, Zhang Da'an didn't talk anymore, if he continued to talk about it, it would offend people, everyone knew it, Tang Gaozong Li Zhi nodded and asked, "Is the test question department ready this time?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it's ready, Your Majesty, please see."

Zhang Da'an handed it over, a eunuch came down to collect the fold, and got it in Li Zhi's hand, Li Zhi opened it, frowned, slowly put it down, and his face was gloomy, so frightened that Zhang Da'an quickly knelt down, looked down at the ground, Li Zhi said in a deep voice: "Your Ministry of Rites is giving me such a test paper?" ”

"Yes...... Be....... ”

The voice began to be sluggish, so nervous that he couldn't speak, Li Zhi glanced at him again, Zhang Da'an's body shrank, his head lowered even more, and he didn't dare to look up at Li Zhi, Li Zhi sneered: "Do you want to fool me?" Am I really that easy to fool? What do you eat in the Rite Department? Can you get this kind of test paper? ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister ......."

"Don't talk to me about what you have or not, I don't care what deal you have with the Ministry of Rites, and it doesn't matter if you form a faction, I just want a satisfactory test paper, is it that difficult?"

"Hmph, don't kneel anymore, I know you're difficult, if you think it's not easy to do, you can abdicate and make way for Xian."

"Your Majesty, the old minister ......."

Zhang Da'an was panicked, his mood at the moment was the opposite of his name, not Da'an, but uneasy, his heart was not a taste, the complicated relationship between the Ministry of Rites could not be made clear in a few words, he had his bitterness.

"Hmph, don't be sloppy with me again, I'm not a three-year-old child, this time your Ministry of Rites has disappointed me, don't interfere in the matter of the imperial examination, don't interfere with the matter of the imperial examination, I will do it myself, I will personally make the test questions tomorrow, you go back."

Li Zhi was very disappointed, waved his hand to let Zhang Da'an go back, Zhang Da'an didn't dare to stay, he left in fear, and after leaving the palace, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and there was no pressure.

"Now it's up to you how you clean up, Lord Ben doesn't care, you go and clean up the mess yourself."

Zhang Da'an glanced at the distance and left dimly, compared with Zhang Da'an's loneliness, other officials were especially excited tonight, and they were educating their children at home, or they were related disciples.

"You all wake up 120,000 points, this is tomorrow's test question, you memorize it for me, this one guarantees that you can get an official and a half-job, if you don't pass, hum."

"My lord (father), don't worry, we will work hard, and we won't disgrace you."

"Then we'll see."

This scene is happening here, and the same thing is happening in Chang'an on the other side, some officials take the test questions to their relatives, sons, disciples, and even the people around them, in short, it's a sentence, hello, I'm good, everyone.

Life is all about being willing to share.

On Pei Yan's house, Pei Yan looked at the many children below, and said lightly: "You have already got the test questions, right?" ”

"Got it, sir."

"Tomorrow is going to be hard, and I don't want any of you to fail it."

"My lord, don't worry, we will work hard."

"That's good, Lord Ben is waiting for good news for you."

Pei Yan stroked his beard and walked happily, this scene here, that scene over there, all have the same purpose, that is, tomorrow's imperial examination, and they all have a test question in their hands, one for each person, and there will never be a shortage.
