Chapter 272: Searching for Papers
Although he is young, he writes more and more;
Wait to see fifteen or sixteen, and in one fell swoop.
Zhu Ping'an hooked the corners of his lips slightly, silently reciting this prodigy poem, looking at the various postures of the candidates in line, his heart was extremely calm. Because I didn't waste an inch of time, I lived up to Shaoguang, and Shaoguang naturally wouldn't treat me badly.
The wait was long, surrounded by soldiers with torches, braziers were burning everywhere, and the whole field was bright.
In 13 provinces in the north and south, more than 5,000 candidates gathered outside the gate, carrying examination baskets and blankets on their backs, like migrant workers crowding trains during the Chinese New Year, waiting for admission.
This kind of scene made Zhu Ping'an think of the Spring Festival, so he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips.
When Zhu Ping'an and others were queuing up outside for the exam, the inner curtain officials and outer curtain officials in the gate were closely arranging the examination.
There are two examiners in this examination, and the chief examiner is Xu Jie, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, from the first grade; The deputy examiner is Yan Maoqing, the second-in-command of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the left deputy capital Yushi, a member of the third grade, and an important member of the Yan Party; There are also eight fellow examiners. These people are the inner curtain officers of this examination.
This time, the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Etiquette was promoted, and this person was also a member of the Yan Party. In addition, there are two imperial historians who serve as invigilators, and there are several quotas for supplying, collecting examination papers, sealing, recording, reading, receiving papers, and inspecting the prison door. These people are the curtain officers of this examination.
Of course, the main force is still the GIs who are responsible for maintaining order, searching, security, etc.
After the mobilization meeting of the internal and external curtain officials is held, the external curtain officers are responsible for releasing candidates in batches according to the region to wait for the examination.
Zhu Ping'an's Nanzhili examination area is the second batch of admissions, and after the first batch of Shandong candidates entered, Zhu Ping'an's Nanzhili candidates rushed to the direction of Yuanmen with their bags in the envious eyes of candidates from other regions, and queued up to check the entrance.
After hundreds of candidates from the entire Nanzhili had entered the gate, the gate was closed by several soldiers, and then a middle-aged official in an official robe walked out of the crowd surrounded by four officials.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this official is the invigilator of this examination. One of the responsibilities is to supervise the search and inspection, you are all through the township test in the local outstanding heroes, is the best in the place, you are all from the song "Deer Song". Originally, I couldn't use the method of dealing with thieves to prevent you from lifting people, but the state has a national law and family rules, and this meeting is a holy gift, and I believe that you are as grateful as I am, in order to repay the holy gift. This meeting will be conducted in strict accordance with the rules. This official is also from this search, and I believe that all of you talents can also understand this official. ”
The middle-aged official in an official robe was one of the two invigilators, walked in front of the Nanzhili candidate, and said with a serious face.
"If anyone dares to enter the country with words, transcripts and other things that should not be brought, once it is found, they will be immediately sent to the Soldiers and Horses Division for questioning, and after a month of flail, they will be sent back to their hometowns to serve as officials, and their fame will be revoked. In the future, I will never participate in the scientific examination again, and I will not be promoted! In addition, the officials and sergeants who are responsible for the search should also be strictly responsible, and the search shall be repeated twice, and if the problem is found in the later search, the former shall be punished, and if the problem is found in the Gongyuan, both shall be punished. The sergeant was transferred to the remote guard station, and the officer was fined for one year. ”
Under the serious instructions of the invigilator, the atmosphere on the whole field suddenly became serious.
"I advise you to raise people. Cherish your hard-won fame, and before this official announces the start of the search, you still have a chance to get rid of the illegal things that you don't carry very much. The official is not to blame for the past. From now on, I will give you ten breaths. ”
As the middle-aged official spoke, he waved his hand, and all the officials and sergeants present turned their backs to the examinee, and the examinee's direction formed a visual blind spot, and no action of the examinee could be seen.
And then
Zhu Ping'an saw some small notes and wax balls. Palm-sized pamphlets and other cheating workers were thrown aside one after another, and there was even a porcelain pillow.
Well, lifting people is also a cheat sheet.
Sure enough, everyone is the same, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help laughing, just like when he was in graduate school, the graduate students also took the exam by all means, soaked in clean water and then pasted on the water cup, WeChat sharing group, miniature cheat sheet, etc.
"Good, let's start searching."
After ten breaths, the middle-aged official looked at the colorful cheat sheets on the ground, nodded with satisfaction, and motioned to the officials and sergeants in charge of the search to divide the candidates into arrays and start the search.
Officers watched from the side, and the specific search was carried out by the GIs.
The gifts and supplies carried are similar to the township test, clothes, robes, insoles, socks, etc. must be searched, the clothes are not inside, the cushion can only be one layer, the inkstone is thick, the brush must be hollowed, the food must be cut, etc., and the township test is almost the same.
After watching the whole process of the first candidate being searched, Zhu Ping'an still had to say that the search for the examination was much stricter than that of the township test and the children's examination, because in addition to the salutes and supplies you carried, your whole person must also be strictly searched and checked.
How to search it, that is, undressing, by a few soldiers in your whole body to grab and pull, the search can be said to be meticulous, how to say, for example, the following are all necessary procedures.
Open your mouth, well, there's nothing hidden in your mouth. Look at the ears, well, the ears don't hide anything in the eyes either. What about the hair, well, there is no hair in it. On the body, there are no tattoos and ink marks or something.
After checking these places, there is one more place where you can hide things on your body, you know, and you have to check it too.
looked at the first few benevolent brothers with red faces and thick necks to be inspected, and watched the meticulous search of several soldiers with a deliberate nature.
Zhu Ping'an has a deeper understanding of a sentence, that is, the phrase "Xiucai meets soldiers, and it is unreasonable to say" may come from this time.
Xiucai meets soldiers, and it is unreasonable!
Most of the literati dealt with the soldiers, around this time in the Gongyuan. The soldiers are carrying waist knives, very majestic, usually high-spirited old men, at this time like the third grandson hanging their heads, under the scorching sun to wilt and wilt, the soldiers shouted at them, they didn't even dare to put a fart. In this way, one by one, the lifters had to go through the search and entrainment to verify the procedure, and the soldiers also took the opportunity to vent their disrespect to the lifter, and during the search, they were meticulous to undress and open the grain road.
What a proud existence the literati are, they have to pose when they die, and they have to be treated like this at this time.
Why in history, literati always have trouble getting along with martial artists, and why do so many literati use all their means to rectify martial arts in.
Why?
Where did they get so much anger and hatred?
Now that I think about it, I guess I was insulted by a soldier when I was raised, and my resentment was so deep that I lost my temper. (To be continued.) )
