Therefore, on the day of the exam, almost every family started firecrackers.

This firecracker is now gradually becoming popular.

People found this thing very festive, and the promotion of the Erpigou firecracker workshop was also very effective.

In fact, it is mainly thanks to the distribution system established in the first place to sell salt.

Many businessmen are dealers of Erpigou, and any new gadgets in Erpigou will be sold in a tie-in way for businessmen to promote.

For example, if you want to buy salt, you can! White salt is profitable, and there is no worry about sales, selling it to you is equivalent to sending money to you, but don't worry, buy ten catties of salt, you have to tie in a few firecrackers, the more salt you enter, the more firecrackers you tie in.

The merchants got salt and a batch of firecrackers, but they couldn't rot in their hands, right?

Therefore, in order to sell firecrackers to return to their capital, they will do their best to sell and sell firecrackers!

The businessmen are selling, and the guys below have to sell desperately, and there is nothing in this world that cannot be done when it comes to profitable things.

Really...... The whole Guanzhong has the habit of setting off firecrackers during the New Year.

Now almost all the people who have taken the exam have set off firecrackers, and the family members are putting firecrackers in Erpigou, and at the same time instructing their children who are going to take the exam in their families to beat the students of the Erpigou University Hall all over the ground to find teeth.

Now the contradiction has become public.

After all, many Xiucai were beaten by Erpigou students, and when that day passed, almost every family was wailing, and this beam was over.

Since you can't beat it back, you can only see the real chapter in the exam room!

That Wu Youjing's injury had been healed, and on this day, when he was on the third watch, he arrived at the Tribute Courtyard.

When the dawn of dawn was revealed, I saw many Xiucai arriving at the Gongyuan together, either alone, or with their servants, or with their families, with the morning breeze.

When people saw Wu Youjing, they immediately showed joy.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Wu was injured, and he even came here to send everyone to the exam.

Many people were greatly encouraged and came forward to pay their respects.

Wu Youjing only smiled and bowed his head, at this time he regained the calm bearing of Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and did not change his complexion, although some bruises on his face that had not yet receded, always gave people a sense of comical.

Wu Youjing smiled elegantly and said to the visitor: "You have done your homework, and you have done a lot of articles on weekdays, and the articles are very lean, and the old man has confidence in you this time." ”

Everyone hurriedly said respectfully, they didn't dare.

Of course, scholars should be humble, even if they think that Lao Tzu is the best in the world, and feel that if Huiyuan is not himself, the examiner is blind, but on the surface, there is still a humble attitude.

Wu Youjing looked at them with great satisfaction and continued: "You don't have to be nervous, this time, the examiner is still a scholar of Yu Shinan University, and Master Yu is an old friend of me, although he is an upright person, he will never show favoritism." But his temperament, the old man knows a little bit about it, a few days ago, let you write a few articles, do guidance, in fact, there is also the meaning of letting you vote for the love of the bachelor. ”

This is somewhat suggestive.

After all, there is no measurement standard for the article, unless the gap between them is too big, if the level of the article is about the same, then it depends on the style of different examiners.

When they heard this, they became more confident, and they made another move.

Immediately, the talents waited outside this tribute courtyard to open the door.

After a while, singing could be heard in the distance.

A group of students from the Erpigou University Hall sang one by one and came over in unison.

These people wore the same scarves and the same Confucian shirts, and lined up in a procession, singing together as if they were marching in the army, which was very imposing.

This made everyone else frown.

Someone said with disdain: "Is this a drama?" ”

Someone else said disdainfully: "I know all these bells and whistles every day." ”

The meaning in those eyes was obvious, but the students obviously didn't care, after all, once a person has integrated into a certain environment, many things that seem unreasonable to outsiders, they also feel reasonable.

What's more, in the early morning, the students run and sing in the morning, although the time for study is delayed, but many people find that their spirits have become full throughout the day, not as depressed as many people who study all day.

The young and handsome Chen Zhengtai came on a high-headed horse, looking high-spirited!

When everyone saw him, they avoided him, although this guy had been beaten to death hundreds of times in the mouths of Xiucai on weekdays, but when he really saw this guy, thinking of what happened in the Xueer bookstore last time, it still made people's scalps tingle, and they couldn't help but feel timid.

Chen Zhengtai sat on the horse with a smile, saw Wu Youjing, and greeted Wu Youjing: "Mr. Wu, let's meet again." ”

Wu Youjing immediately turned his face away, and he had the courage to stand up to the thief.

Chen Zhengtai's politeness obviously stopped at the point, and then he turned his head slightly, and shouted at the students: "Today's big test, do you have confidence?" ”

The students straightened their faces, raised their heads and chests, and said in an impassioned voice: "Yes." ”

This voice is even more imposing!

At this time, Chen Zhengtai said again: "I didn't do well in the exam, what should I do?" ”

"I don't have a face to see my master again."

"Take the test well, don't give this group of scum a chance." Chen Zhengtai was yin and yang, and by the way, he glanced at Wu Youjing at the same time!

The sentient beings are now full of energy, they came all the way in the morning, and after entering the city, it is inconvenient to run, so they walk in line, singing along the way, and now they are full of energy.

From the perspective of onlookers, these students are like a group of clowns, all of whom look disdainful.

At this moment, the door of the Gongyuan finally opened, and Xiucai and the students did not hesitate any longer, and rushed in one after another.

The crowd outside the Gongyuan began to sparse, but behind Chen Zhengtai, there was Xue Rengui, so he was not worried about being ambushed, but he hit the horse in front of Wu Youjing: "Is Mr. Wu's injury healed?" ”

"What does it have to do with you?" Wu Youjing gritted his teeth and looked at Chen Zhengtai.

His good bearing will only show signs of cracking when facing Chen Zhengtai.

Chen Zhengtai said with a look of disbelief: "This is my personal injury, how can it have nothing to do with me, what you say is so unreasonable." ”

That's a bit of an idiot to scold him!

Wu Youjing: "......"

Wu Youjing's face darkened a little again!

"I heard that Mr. Wu is also asking people to recite the Four Books and Five Classics all day long, and he also asks people to write articles?" Chen Zhengtai sneered: "It seems that it is also the method of our university hall." ”

Actually, this is true.

The University Hall has done a good job of proving that this rote method of memorization is useful, so ...... Although everyone mentions the university hall with disdain, there are many people who study secretly.

The same is true for Wu Youjing.

He is still very confident in the talents.

In his opinion, the skills of the talents are still very deep because they have a family history. What's more, they have always admired bloodlines, except for the students of Erpigou University Hall, most of those who can show off their talents are still children of the world!

In the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Shi clan regarded themselves very highly, and they thought they were noble, so most of them thought that the reason why the places where the children of the poor families in the Erpigou University Hall were able to shine was only because of rote memorization, but these people were essentially just opportunistic, a group of dull people, who just took advantage of the loopholes of the imperial examination by luck.

Therefore, they are confident that if the methods of the university hall are applied to them, they will be much better than the untouchables of the university hall.

So for Chen Zhengtai's obvious sarcasm, Wu Youjing was surprisingly calm, and said: "Preparing for the exam is just a technique, you Chen Zhan can use it, and others use it, so why not?" This is just a small skill of carving insects, since it can help people make the list, why not use it? ”

Chen Zhengtai thinks that this guy is simply shameless to the extreme, not only to be high, but also to plagiarize!

But if you think about it, aren't there many such people in the world?

It's one thing to pretend to be forced, it's another thing to beg for a living.

Chen Zhengtai is not a person who likes to be entangled, so he thought about it all of a sudden, so he smiled and said: "Then wait and see, be careful not to add new injuries." ”

This smile, with these words, has a different meaning......

"You still dare to threaten the old man......"

Wu Youjing was obviously angry again, and was about to scold, but Chen Zhengtai had already taken Xue Rengui with him, ignored him anymore, and rode away directly.

…………

In the Minglun Hall of the Tribute Temple.

Yu Shinan, who is the chief examiner of this big exam, seems to be very energetic today.

As a university scholar, His Majesty ordered him to take the main exam again this time, which made Yu Shinan quite complacent.

Yu Shinan is a relatively indifferent person, he doesn't like the struggle for power and profit between the DPRK and China, he likes to associate with some literati and scholars, and he reads books in his spare time on weekdays.

At this time, he sat on the main seat, with a steaming cup of tea in his hand, and his eyes were slightly closed, and his fingers tapped lightly on the case, as if the old god was there.

Several other examiners, all of whom are high-ranking people, sit on both sides.

It's about to begin.

Therefore, one of the examiners smiled and said: "Xia Guan is also looking forward to it at this time, I don't know what kind of question Bachelor Yu came up with this time?" ”

When they heard this, they all laughed.

In fact, this exam question was issued by the examiner, and the question was released early, and then sealed up, even the emperor could not know in advance!

When Yu Shinan came up with the question, he had to be confined alone in the tribute courtyard for a period of time to show his fairness and prevent the question from being leaked.

It can be said that before today's topic is released, except for him, no one in the world knows what the topic is.

It's just that when the examiner asked at this time, Yu Shinan showed a leisurely demeanor, a smile on his lips, and said, "In order to solve the question, the old man also took great pains." After all, this is not a state test, this is a township test! The township examination is a big test, and those who can enter the examination are all talents! These people have ink in their stomachs. If the topic is too easy, it will be difficult to find out the real talent if you can't say it. For this question, the old man racked his brains, but it took a lot of effort. ”

Everyone laughed again, and they couldn't help but look forward to it.

Who is Yu Shinan? This is a bachelor with the same name as Fang Xuanling!

What's more, in the minds of many people, Yu Shinan's talent is actually higher than Fang Xuanling!

After all, Fang Xuanling is famous for governing the world, but when it comes to learning articles, how many people in the world can be compared with Yu Shinan?

Even Yu Shinan spent a lot of effort on the questions in this big exam, but he didn't know what the question was, he was really looking forward to it, and he was inexplicably a little nervous!

A moment later, a loud gong was heard, and then a scribe opened the sealed test questions!

The curiosity in the hearts of the examiners was even more extreme, and the next moment, they listened to the scribe singing: "Question: Ji Gongniao married Yu Qi Bao Wenzi."

As soon as this question came out, many examiners were confused.

Obviously, anyone who has some impressions of this topic knows that it comes from "Spring and Autumn".

This is actually about the twenty-five years of Lu Zhaogong, and it only records some of the history that happened at that time.

As for this question, it is actually very simple, but it is just a marriage! The original sentence is: 'Ji Gongniao married his wife Yu Qi Bao Wenzi and gave birth to Jia. The male bird died, Ji Gonghai and Gong Sizhan and the male bird's minister Shen Yegu were in their rooms......

Of course, the biggest trap of this question is not actually this question, because the title is clear at a glance, but if you have some understanding of this allusion, you can know that behind this topic, there is a hidden matter, because this Ji Gongniao's wife has fornicated with others, which has triggered a series of political incidents.

The beauty of this question lies in the fact that it involves the political ecology of the Spring and Autumn Period, marriage, diplomacy, and even some blood-soaked love stories, and even ...... A public case was also involved.

You can say that there is nothing to be desired.

Just such a question, you go to write an article, not only to add allusions, but also to read and comprehend, but also to write a splendid article.

Of course, in this splendid article, it is also necessary to imply the way of the saint, after all, in this immoral topic, you have to make a moral article.

As soon as several examiners saw this question, they were all directly dumbfounded, and at this time, they ...... I was a little confused!

This question...... It's too hard.

Which examiner here is not a person who is full of wealth? But in the face of such a question, it is a difficult word for them!

So for a while, everyone frowned, fell into deep thought, and wondered in their hearts, if the candidate is himself, how to write?

But all of a sudden, they all found that they were a little unable to write, and it was easy to write an article, but it was really not easy to write it brilliantly, to make it to the topic, and to have a limited time.

Unexpectedly, this Yu Gong actually went straight to the sword, such a problem, are you sure you didn't deliberately make things difficult?

It's hard, it's too hard.

Many people couldn't help but shake their heads secretly in their hearts.

Yu Shinan looked at everyone's reactions, but he looked quite complacent, he was obviously complacent that he had come up with such a question after thinking hard about it.

If there is a problem, it shows the level of the examiner, if it is a stable question, what do you have to do as an examiner?

He saw that these examiners were all frowning and thoughtful, and they were silent, and he was happy in his heart!

In fact, these days, he is also thinking about this topic, and even he can't help but write a few articles in his heart, but he still feels that he is not happy, and he always feels that there is still something missing.

And these candidates today, will anyone write a satisfactory essay?

……

Deng Jian entered the examination room as usual, and after a bloody fight, he sank down again, these days...... It's still reading, and writing articles day after day.

Although it was today's big exam, he slept very sweetly last night, after all, he had encountered too many times in such an exam, and slowly, this heart was settled.

After entering the examination room with others, he found that the layout in the examination room was similar to that in the mock examination room, so he did not panic at all, and easily found his own examination shed, sat down peacefully in the examination room, and began to grind ink leisurely.

If you talk about pressure, he actually still has it, after all, he has too many expectations on his shoulders, but he still adjusted his mentality after all and waited for the question to come out.

Then, the scribe holding the sign finally came.

Deng Jian looked up intently, and read along with the words above in his heart: "Ji Gongniao married Yu Qi Bao Wenzi." ”

In his mind, an article about the Spring and Autumn Period and the twenty-fifth year of Zhaogong instantly flooded his mind.

This question...... Belch...... It's easy......

Deng Jian actually exhaled a long breath easily.

He also thought that the examiner would come up with a difficult question like the teaching and research group, you must know that this question is neither intercepted nor deliberately obscure, in fact, it is just a very simple allusion.

For people like Deng Jian, who have long been tormented by countless difficult problems and strange questions in the teaching and research group, to be honest...... This is just an allusion on the surface, but it only hides a small trap, which seems to be difficult, but in fact...... Well, but Erl.

What question has I Deng Jian not done?

That's it......

Although this question is very easy, even Deng Jian feels that the examiner Yu Shinan is very suspicious of releasing water, such a level, if you put them in the teaching and research group of the university hall, I am afraid that they will have to be at the bottom.

However, before each exam, the teaching and research team will send someone to conduct some interviews with the candidates, most of which are to let everyone not be nervous, let people relax and other conversations, in the view of the teaching and research team, the mentality of the exam is also very important, not arrogant, not impatient, to be stable!

So Deng Jian cheered up, and he didn't mean to despise this easy question, well, he had to be cautious.

So he began to calm down, grinding ink on the one hand, and thinking about it on the other.

It only takes a moment's effort, and he has one eye!

So the question, first take a blank piece of paper, pinch the pen in one hand, hold your long sleeves in the other hand, and then move your wrist lightly, and the pen will go dragon and snake.

It only took a moment of effort, and a vertical handwriting was impressive.

Deng Jian couldn't help but sigh in his heart while writing down: "It's too easy." ”
