Chapter 161 Autumn Two

Three gongs sounded, the gate of the Gongyuan creaked open, and a team of well-equipped guards came out on both sides, looking at the candidates queuing up on the spot.

"Except for food, all candidates are not allowed to bring anything into the venue, and violators will be disqualified from the examination, expelled from the Tribute Academy, and will not be allowed to take the examination for three years."

One after another, some students began to enter the gate of the Gongyuan under the inspection of the guards, and even the outer robe was pulled out and cleaned, and the food in the food box was all broken in half to prevent the entrainment of cheat sheets inside, and the strict inspection was not much slower than the college entrance examination in later generations, and even more than that, because of the various advanced instruments in later generations, it was not possible to pull out the outer robe for inspection.

Seeing that it was about to be lined up, Liu Da Shao Liu Song took the food box in the hands of a subordinate and handed it over: "Young master, outsiders are not allowed to enter the tribute courtyard, and the next thing is to rely on the young master himself, Xiao Song believes that the young master will definitely pass the exam, young master come on." ”

Liu Dashao took the food box uneasily, and at this moment he actually had a nervous feeling that he was going to take the college entrance examination: "Xiao Song, young master, I'm going in." ”

"Young master, go in, you have to take a good exam in the past three days, and Komatsu will come to pick you up in three days."

Liu Dashao was reluctant to say goodbye to Liu Song, and slowly rushed forward with the food box, and finally after the scholar in front of Liu Dashao entered the Tribute Academy, Liu Dashao put the food box on a table.

The two guards stepped forward to open the food box, which was a stack of delicate snacks, as well as a lot of fruits, a roast chicken wrapped in oil paper, compared to the food box of those people in front of Liu Dashao, it can be said that it is full of meat and vegetables, the guard glanced at Liu Dashao in surprise, he was the first time to see the things brought to the exam as if he was stepping into the green.

After carefully inspecting each snack, there was no entrainment, and the guard closed the food box: "Come here, take off your coat." ”

Liu Dashao stood on a wooden platform, and the guards carefully inspected every part of the coat before returning it to Liu Dashao: "It's no different." ”

"Let's go inside."

"Thank you."

The guard glanced at Liu Dashao who went in in surprise, and grinned lightly, it was really unprecedented for a scholar to say thank you to a reckless man like himself.

About half an hour later, more than 1,000 students gathered in the Gongyuan to take the exam. I haven't found out how much it has happened when I was in line, but it's a big piece of it when it's piled up.

"All the candidates are silent and worship Kong Sheng."

The noisy sound began to quiet down, and Qi Run Zhao Fengshou led the officials and students to bow to the statue of Kong Sheng, which is a ritual to be held every autumn festival.

As a saint who penetrated into the hearts of scholars, Confucius's worship of Confucius was both a kind of respect and a kind of psychological comfort, and he asked Confucius to bless him to be able to go to high school.

After the end of the week, Zhao Fengshou got on the wooden platform and held a silk cloth in his hand: "The matter of the autumn festival should not be underestimated, all candidates must follow the rules of the examination room, strictly plagiarize the test papers of other students, and once they find it, they will immediately know the Gongyuan, and they will not take the test again." There have always been cases of fraud in the examination room of candidates, and I hope that all students will take this as a warning and take their seats. ”

The officials began to lead the students to the examination room, which was divided into a house, and after all the candidates had entered, several chief examination officials inspected each other: "When the time comes, seal off the gate of the courtyard, and the trespassers will be asked by the law." ”

"Lord Song, let's open the book."

Qi Run nodded, picked up his own key, opened the lock on the wooden box, and several escorts took out the test papers inside and distributed them to the candidates one by one.

Every time a test paper is issued, the two examiners will follow closely after staring at the every move of the officials, and the affairs of the autumn period should not be sloppy, not only to strictly prohibit the entrainment of candidates, but also to prevent the officials from being bought, which shows that the imperial court attaches great importance to the imperial examination.

When he arrived at Liu Dashao, Liu Mingzhi politely said thank you to the officials, and Qi Run, who was on the side, walked over from the side as if he had never seen Liu Dashao, just like he did with the candidates in front of him.

Liu Dashao knew that it was already unexpected that his father-in-law, as a local official, could become one of the main exams, so he had to avoid suspicion and put himself in the position of assisting Zhao Langzhong, seeing that it was meaningless to ignore him, after all, he still had to avoid suspicion.

After a group of people left, Liu Dashao began to pick up the test paper and look at it, this is the first time in his life to see the test paper of the scientific examination, there is no difference from what he imagined, the test paper is printed on the test paper, there are five manuscript papers next to it, to prevent candidates from being nervous and causing one manuscript paper to be insufficient, I have to say that the consideration is quite comprehensive.

Liu Dashao put down the test paper in his hand and began to grind the ink, and after the ink was even, he put the pen aside, and began to carefully watch the test questions on the test paper.

The first test is the scriptures, and the 100 questions are selected from the four books and the five classics, and the candidates are required to write the corresponding questions according to the articles they have read.

Liu Dashao found that the above test questions were not as difficult as he imagined, and began to take out a piece of manuscript paper and then picked up the pen and began to write.

Time passed the most casually during the exam, and Liu Dashao wrote sixty questions without the slightest difficulty, and each question was reflected in his mind.

Putting down the brush, Liu Mingzhi stretched his waist only to find that it was already dusk, and the examination room was also dark, shaking his head and smiling bitterly: "The young master is really fascinated, and I don't like the exam the most, and I can't extricate myself from the test paper." ”

Carefully putting the test paper aside, Liu Dashao opened his food box, and after most of the day, he didn't even eat a mouthful of food, and his stomach was already hungry.

pinched a piece of osmanthus cake and stuffed it into his mouth, and the rich fragrance bloomed in his mouth: "Well, this is made by Ying'er's girl, and other people can't make this kind of taste." ”

After eating a few pieces of pastry in a row, the stomach did not feel so empty, Liu Mingzhi tore open the oil paper wrapped in the roast chicken again, tore off a piece of chicken leg and ate it.

The aroma of roast chicken filled the entire examination room.

"Brother next door, can you wrap it tightly when you eat roast chicken, I'm willing to dry cakes here, you eat roast chicken, the taste is too big, is this what people do?"

"Yes, yes, brother, your food is too good, we all eat dry cakes, and the taste of roast chicken is too great."

"No talking." A servant walked over and looked at Liu Mingzhi and the three of them seriously: "If the three of you discuss it in private, I will report it to the examiner." ”

The other two hurriedly silenced their heads and nibbled on the cake in their hands, Liu Dashao also put down the chicken leg in his hand and laughed twice, the official looked at the fragrant chicken leg in Liu Mingzhi's hand in surprise and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, thinking that he also guessed why the three people here made a sound of talking.

"Why are you standing in front of the candidates?" A serious voice came, and the official was excited: "Back to the adult, there was an incident with a candidate who ate chicken legs, and the little one has already warned them." "The person who came was Zhao Fengshou, a member of the Ministry of Officials who inspected the examination room.

Zhao Fengshou waved his hand: "Continue to patrol, do not contact the candidates, and do not whisper with the candidates." ”

After the official walked away, Zhao Fengshou looked at the examination room and test papers of the other two candidates separately and did not find the same, and then continued to walk to Liu Dashao's examination room.

"Huh?" Zhao Fengshou was stunned when he saw Liu Dashao's test paper.
