Chapter 250: Autumn Season (8)
In order to make it easier for candidates to find their own position, when issuing papers, the Gongyuan provides each candidate with a seat number passbook, which indicates the location of each examination room.
He Zhiyuan followed the guide, arrived at the ninth row, stood on the corridor and looked inside, only to see seventy or eighty houses lined up in a long alley facing south, there was a gate at the entrance of the alley, and the guards checked their names before putting He Zhiyuan in.
He Zhiyuanjian Lane is less than five feet wide, but it is very narrow and long, quite like an alley in a residential house. Each room is guarded by a military officer. In fact, neither the marking officer nor the supervisor directly went to the examination alley to inspect the field, and the specific invigilators were actually these illiterate soldiers. This is because there are no invigilators, and it can also prevent collusion between the invigilator and the candidates.
In fact, this kind of one-on-one invigilation is really not difficult, as long as it is forbidden to ask questions, prohibit strings, and prohibit the exchange of test papers.
There are also several large tanks filled with water, which are mainly used to extinguish fires and provide drinking water for candidates.
He Zhiyuan looked deeper, and saw the toilet at the end of the house, so he retracted his gaze and found the eighth room, as Zhao Nai said, there are walls on three sides, the south side is open, and there is no door, the size is very similar to the toilet on the train in later generations, but you can imagine what the trumpet should be like.
He Zhiyuan entered his room, and after putting the exam box away, he first took out the exam paper from the exam bag and browsed it. Thank God it is not what I did in my dream last night, these test questions are exactly the same as the test questions in history, and He Zhiyuan's little butterfly wings did not affect this township test.
In this way, He Zhiyuan's hanging heart has completely relaxed, and now he only needs to write down a few articles that he has memorized in the past two days. So He Zhiyuan decided to take a good rest today and answer the questionnaire slowly tomorrow.
He Zhiyuan stretched out his hand to lift the medium board embedded in the brick support, wiped the ash on his hand, and looked closely, only to see that the house was densely covered with spider webs, and a thick layer of dust had accumulated on the ground. Just now he came into the tribute courtyard, and when he saw that the place was clean and the ground was sprinkled with water, he was happy for a while, but he didn't expect that people only swept the streets, and personal hygiene had to be done personally.
There's no way to take the test! As a last resort, I had to roll up my sleeves and bring water and sweep the house out...... Of course, not only He Zhiyuan, but also other candidates in the alley are also cleaning up.
When cleaning the house, He Zhiyuan found that there were many messages from seniors written on the wall, such as so-and-so taking the exam in a certain year and a certain month, and some such as 'The fan is cool and windy, and the auspicious day is in the examination room, and the Mid-Autumn Festival in August is the first to solve the yuanlang. ' and so on. But what surprised him was that in the hidden place of one wall, there was a line of small words: "Ye County Mao Ji Yi Si tried here." ”
He Zhiyuan was greatly surprised when he saw the small characters in this line, he rubbed his eyes vigorously, and looked at it carefully again to confirm that he was not mistaken. He never thought that Xie Yuan, who was tested in Shandong Township in the 21st year of Chenghua, and Mao Ji, who later became the first assistant of the cabinet, also struggled in this house. Look at the following, there are also words of worship written by candidates in the past fifteen years. He Zhiyuan believed that eighteen years ago, the senior Mao also used to clean here...... The heart is also much more balanced.
He Zhiyuan didn't believe that such a coincidence had happened, and then he thought about what the soldiers had said to him during the search, as if all this was deliberately arranged by someone. He believed that all this originated from Emperor Hongzhi's edict: "I am waiting for you in the Wenhua Palace!" "It's not a bad thing anyway, so I just don't care about it and keep cleaning.
When the house was completely cleaned out, it was already sunset, and He Zhiyuan couldn't help but scold: "Three days have passed, and I haven't written a word." He stuffed the exam papers into a roll bag, then wrapped them in oiled paper and put them in the exam box for safekeeping. Because the exam papers cannot be damaged in the slightest, let alone wet or dirty, He Zhiyuan is particularly concerned about the exam papers.
He Zhiyuan took a small pot and a small charcoal stove from the examination box and brought them to the alley. The house was so small that everyone who wanted to cook had to come into the five-foot-wide alley. But when he came out to work, there were almost no people in the alley.
Because from the beginning of entering the gate, there is no entourage to follow, whether it is moving the examination box or sweeping the examination room, everything has to be completed by these powerless scholars alone, I am afraid that many people can only experience what it means to "work their muscles and bones" at this time in their lives. One by one, they were exhausted and didn't even want to eat, and of course it was more likely that they were too lazy to cook.
There is also a possibility that these scholars do not know how to cook at all, and the scholars do not touch the spring water with their fingers, and the hot food they make may be even worse than the cold food.
In such an environment, it's really not just about learning from talents, if you can't even take care of yourself, you can vomit and diarrhea, dizziness and swelling, how can you write a good essay that pleases the exam?
As a man of two lives, He Zhiyuan was very good at cooking as early as the previous life, and in this life, he learned martial arts with Xu Tangyi, practiced horseback riding, and exercised his body to be strong and strong-willed. So you can take good care of yourself at this time.
Therefore, it is not enough to just study, not learn to do housework, and not insist on exercising. Therefore, the country in later generations has repeatedly emphasized that students should develop morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetically, and labor in an all-round way, and children cannot be trained into machines that can only learn.
He Zhiyuan boiled a pot of sticky rice porridge, waited for a while, put the lukewarm rice porridge into a bowl, and then took out two meat-filled patties from the examination box this morning, which were pickles so beautiful that they ate a hot dinner. After two bowls of rice porridge and two meat pies, He Zhiyuan felt much more comfortable, so he returned to the house in the envious eyes of others. After moving around in this confined space for a while, when the digestion is almost complete, the two so-called "holy plates" are laid out, and then the futon is spread and the sleeper begins. There are only three candles in the current hospital, and he is not going to waste them today.
This strategy was right, because he didn't sleep well all night last night, and he tossed around all day before dawn today. Now after reading the exam questions, he is completely relieved, and he naturally sleeps well when he is relaxed. So he has to get a good night's sleep, recuperate, and start answering questions tomorrow.
So, he took out the two large drawers of the exam box and buckled them, put them next to the number board, and then took out the other drawer, made a pillow according to the method taught by the guy, and put it at the other end of the number board. Turn on the mosquito repellent medicine, get into the bed, and fall asleep after a while.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the autumn is crisp, the temperature is suitable, and there are no mosquitoes to disturb it, this sleep is really refreshing, and I wake up naturally after a sleep. When he opened his eyes and stretched, when he saw the sergeant in the prison field, he remembered that he was in the tribute courtyard.
He saw the admiration on the sergeant's face, and looked at the sky, it was already three poles in the sun. couldn't help but blush, quickly put away the futon, took the pot to put down the noodles, and didn't forget to beat two poached eggs. The soldiers in the prison had already been told that the object of his prison was He Zhiyuan, and he was to be taken care of, and if he made any small moves, he just had to pretend that he didn't see it. Since there were candidates on both sides, this soldier didn't dare to have a verbal exchange with him, but he just urged He Zhiyuan to quickly start answering.
But He Zhiyuan didn't seem to see it, he ignored it completely, and still slowly scooped noodles from a small pot with chopsticks. The soldier couldn't help but secretly disdain in his heart: "After eating, sleeping, sleeping, eating, there is a good skin, but it turns out that it is stuffed with straw!" ”
He Zhiyuan didn't know that he was despised, and after tasting the noodles, he felt a little light, so he added some soy sauce, and when he felt that it was salty and light, he began to blow hot air with his mouth and eat it slowly.
It wasn't until he had eaten and drunk enough, brushed the pots and pans, and wiped the plate clean that he sat back slowly, took out the exam bag and took out the exam question sheet and answer sheet, pretended to be thoughtful, and after a while began to slowly write on the answer sheet.
The examination questions of the township examination are three questions of four books and twenty questions of the Five Classics, of which three questions and four books are compulsory questions, and the twenty questions of the Five Classics do not need to be done all, only one of them needs to be answered, that is, four questions. That is, a total of seven articles were written.
Of course, it's not that you choose which scripture is easy to choose when you look at the question on the paper, because on the answer sheet, you wrote down what you want to choose for the exam three days ago. Of course, this is not an unpredictable prophet of the Gongyuan, but two days before the exam, all the candidates go to the Yamen of the Political Secretary, report their names, year first, place of origin, and the names of the three generations, as well as the time they are ready to take the exam, and the Yamen will print the paper and put it in the book, that is, write this information on the answer sheet, mark it with a seal, and then send it to the candidates themselves.
That is to say, the candidates took the answer sheet to take the exam, which saved the pain of on-site identification and registration in the Gongyuan. It is only necessary to distribute the same draft papers and question papers to everyone, which can naturally greatly improve efficiency. And candidates don't need to fill in their names anymore, just come up and look at the question construction, which is a win-win situation.
He Zhiyuan chose the four questions of "Spring and Autumn", and he already knew that from many years ago, Dabi marking has formed the meaning of "four books" that only pay attention to the first test paper, especially the first one. As long as the papers of the "Four Books" are selected, the examiner will not be serious about the papers of the other fields.
Therefore, Liang Yuesong also put most of his energy on the three questions and four books, and answered the three questions of the four books as perfectly as possible according to the top three answer sheets of this subject. Then the four questions of "Spring and Autumn" were made to be true to Pharaoh, and the flowers were full of flowers.
He Zhiyuan used a brush to slowly transcribe the articles that he had memorized on the answer sheet. After he finished answering the three questions and four book questions, it was already in the afternoon. After that, I checked another one and found that there were no errors or omissions. After that, I started to make dinner, and after a beautiful dinner, I lit a candle and began to do four "Spring and Autumn" questions.
When he had finished transcribing the two spring and autumn questions, he stopped and began to sleep. The next morning, it took another hour to finish the other two questions. Then, after careful inspection, he found that there were no mistakes, so he handed in his papers and walked out of the examination room.
The time to answer the question was exactly one and a half days, and when he handed in the paper, the other candidates were still concentrating on answering the questions.
