The Liberation Examination is also called the Tribute Examination, and the Locked Hall Examination is one of the ways of the Tribute Examination.

As mentioned in the previous chapter, most of the people who participated in this examination were current officials or those who had knighthoods, and even the children of the clan could also participate.

Therefore, many low-level officials "focus on participation" in the year of the examination, and there was even a phenomenon that "all departments are official locks".

There was no way, so the imperial court issued a strict decree, stipulating that "if an official participates in the hall entrance examination, his chief must take the art examination, and the passing party will be sent to the Ministry of Rites examination."

The chief official of the dog is Su Fatzi Su Tongju, but the governor of Longzhou is Lu Zhizhou, so whether the dog can pass or not is up to others.

"Zhao Dagou!"

The dog, who was kneeling on the ground respectfully, suddenly heard Lu Zhizhou calling to himself behind the public case, and quickly raised his head and replied: "Zhizhou, the student is here!" ”

"I knew you were here! I mean, do you remember what Su Tong sentenced you to say? ”

Dog: "Back to Zhizhou, the students keep it in mind!" ”

"Hmm!"

Lu Zhizhou nodded, looked up again, picked up the dog's exam paper, looked up and down, and said, "In this way, I will take you!" ”

What? Take me? The dog looked confused.

This, this, this? I didn't even write a word! How did he get me?

Lu Zhizhou looked at the untrustworthy dog, frowned, and said, "What, you don't believe what I said?" ”

Not really! How did the master get it right without writing a word? If I believe you, I am a fool.

"No, no, no, student letter!"

There is really nothing to do about this big guy Gou'er, after all, he is begging for food under him, and he looks at his face when he rubs and pinches, so Gou'er hurriedly nodded and said: "It's just that the student's exam paper is very white!" So the student thought, write two words......"

Lu Zhizhou smiled and waved his hand: "No, someone will solve it when you go back!" All you have to do is remember what the general judgment says to you. ”

All right! The dog said in his heart, what other tricks can he have if he looks like this, so he had to kowtow respectfully and said, "The student will retire for the time being." ”

"Hmmm! Get out! By the way, go back and carefully review your homework at home, I heard that you are not very strong in this subset of history, study more in these three days, and wait for these three days to visit relatives and friends! ”

The dog was not a fool, so he naturally knew what he meant, so he said, "The student knows, he has been doing more homework at home these days!" ”

After speaking, seeing that he nodded, there was no other instruction, and the dog had to hesitantly walk out, and walked out of the examination room of the locked hall test.

Standing under the big willow tree opposite the examination room, the dog maliciously guessed, this Lu Zhizhou hated himself because of his bad relationship with his nephew, was it a trap he deliberately set for himself, after all, there was not a single errand in his room on duty at that time, what if he coaxed himself out and didn't admit it when he turned around?

Thinking about it like this, the dog thought that it was better to ask Su Tong for a sentence, but before the dog could lift his feet to go, a greeting sounded from behind, and the dog stopped drinking.

"Hey, Zhao Dagou! Why are you out again? ”

"That's it, dog! This is an official tribute, what are you doing here? ”

The dog turned his head to look at the two men with surprised faces, and sighed, "I don't know ...... either."

"You don't know?"

Wang Hou was startled, and was about to shout and ask, but Hua Shishi next to him hurriedly stopped him and said: "Brother Hou'er, don't hit the dog, it is estimated that he made some foolish mistake and was kicked out by the examiner!" ”

After speaking, he looked at the dog with an uncompetitive look.

Dogs are so angry! I was about to explain to the two of them, but when I saw the crowd five hundred steps away from the Gongyuan, I had to swallow it and said, "Go back and talk about it!" ”

"What a return!" Wang Hou said loudly: "Although you have no chance to be the champion of this subject, but our brother is in his youth, and a little setback will not hinder anything!" Just hang the beam three times, and you will be a good man! Let's go, today Fanghua Lou is not drunk and will not return! ”

The words were arrogant, but the dog didn't react at all, because he suddenly thought of something, so he interrupted and slapped Hua Fourteen in Wang Dayan's sycophancy: "Fourteen, have you seen Lu Duan and a few of them enter the examination room today?" ”

"Why are you asking how many of them are doing?" Disgraceful memories are easy to lower mood, so Hua Shishi waved his hand and said, "I don't care about a few of them!" ”

The dog was eager to confirm, well, it can also be said to comfort himself, so he said: "Tell me quickly, I'll think about things again!" ”

Hua 14 turned his head and saw that the dog had a serious look on his face, so he had to shake his head and said, "Those Yanei didn't come to the Gongyuan today!" ”

"Are you sure?"

"Naturally, sure!" Hua Fourteen pointed at Wang Hou and said: "Brother Hou and I saw with our own eyes, a few of them entered the Pearl Courtyard opposite Fanghua Building!" He also had a dispute with a group of businessmen who went to Chengdu Mansion! ”

The dog nodded, muttering, "That's right!" ”

"What's right?" Wang Hou was close, and when he heard the dog's whispering, he asked in a loud voice.

As soon as he interrupted like this, the dog woke up from his thoughts, looked at the two of them with blank faces, and smiled: "Tell the two of you, the master must be in this subject, if you don't believe it, you two are waiting to see the list?" ”

"What? Must hit? ”

The two glanced at each other, and Wang Hou saw that Hua Shishi nodded to him, so he stretched out his hand to touch the dog's forehead to see if he had a fever and burned his head.

The dog stretched out his hand to interrupt him and said, "I didn't lie to the two of you, go, this is not the place to talk, go back first, and I'll explain to you." ”

After speaking, the dog lowered his head and hurriedly walked home, and Wang Hou, who was behind, had no choice but to follow him home.

Privilege is everywhere, even in the future generations of "fairness, justice and strictness", the privileged class and the privileged people still exist, they use the rights given to them by the people, pollution becomes a tool for their own benefits, and lives like moths in the country and the corners of this building.

In feudal dynasties, this kind of scene existed, especially the group of officials.

The law, which is only an instrument, is used to cure the mud-legged and the political enemies.

Therefore, officials like Dong Xuan, who are not afraid of the powerful and self-conscious, such as Dong Xuan and Hai Rui, who are not afraid of the powerful, will leave a strong mark in the vast biographies of historical figures, after all, scarcity is precious.

Although the dog had already guessed that he would be taken care of by Lu Zhizhou, and then sentenced himself to pass, it was not revealed after all, so the dog was always unstable during the three days at home.

Maybe it was the autumn tiger that was powerful, and the dog was restless, so he held a cold melon and dug it with a small wooden spoon to eat, and looked out of the door after eating a few bites.

Today is the day of the release of the list, not only those candidates who take the exam are tormented, but the dogs who take the first test are also suffering from gains and losses, not that you can be admitted if you are talented, after all, there are some people who go through the back door, plus the existence of "solution".

There is a saying in the workplace in later generations, a radish is a pit, and seniority sits on a chair.

However, the number of official positions is limited, there are many redundant officials, and the number of people participating in the imperial examination is increasing year after year, so in order to curb the growth of the number of people who have been dismissed, the government has implemented this method of "dissolving the quota."

At the beginning, in the Zhenzong Dynasty to implement the "proportional solution", but the number of people not only did not decrease, but increased sharply, the first section of the first year of Xianping, it had to be released more than 20,000 people, all of a sudden the court panicked, so in the second year of Dazhong Xiangfu, the implementation of a fixed amount.

As mentioned in the previous chapter, in addition to the most difficult "state government examination", the Song Dynasty was able to hold the "Taixue Examination", and the third was to take care of the children of officials on the road, relatives and related households, and the "Cao Examination" set up in the Transit Envoy Division became the "Don't Head Examination", which was also a way.

Therefore, while taking into account these three points, the imperial court also had to take care of the amount of relief in the remote state capital, so it made a certain amount.

Taixue, the highest institution of learning, after passing the assessment held by the school, will generally be exempted from more than 100 people directly from the provincial examination of the Ministry of Rites, and finally the proportion of the meritorious name of the Jinshi is one of five.

Try these related households, about one out of seven.

The rest of the state capitals have taken the test, and the number of people who have been released is 200 to 1, and some of the major provinces of the imperial examination can even take one out of three or four hundred people.

Dangdangdang......

The sound of the hurried gong came from far to near, and the loud shouting of the servants could be faintly heard.

The wooden spoon that the dog was digging into the gourd stopped in the air, and if you looked closely, the handle of the spoon was still shaking slightly.

"Brother Pang, do I have to prepare some reward?"

"Don't worry, dog, I've already prepared the reward!"

The jubilant Lang, leading the equally jubilant mute man, stood in front of a square wooden table covered with red cloth, looking at the gate for a while, and smiling at the yellow copper coins on the tray on the table.

Originally, today Gou'er wanted to go to the Gongyuan to see the emperor's list, but was persuaded by Da Da Lang, he said, "The really talented students are waiting for others to send good news, and only those mediocre people will go to see the list in person!" ”

The dog thinks about it too! Although he is not a talented person, he has already been hinted at in advance, so what else is there to go? Wouldn't it be beautiful to save the hardship of crowding people by the way, so the dog sat in the courtyard early and listened to the movement outside.

Bang bang bang bang ......

The sound of the gong was getting closer and closer, and it seemed that it was really coming towards his door, which made the dog completely unable to pretend to be calm anymore, and directly dropped the messy cold melon skin that was dug up in his hand, and quickly stood up, ready to welcome the annunciation person into the door.

However, the sound of the gong came to an abrupt end.

"Congratulations to your Young Master Zhang, the high school emperor!"

A shout made the dog deflated, and the tension in his body disappeared in an instant.

"Don't worry about the dog, I heard that there are ten people in Longzhou this time!"

"I know Brother Huge! I'm in no hurry! Let's wait slowly! ”

Bai was excited, the dog sat down again this time, and the cold melon that had just been thrown on the ground continued to pick it up and eat, while eating, he listened to the lively congratulatory scene of the neighbor next door, and the corners of his mouth skimmed, Damn, it's not good to live there, but I live next door to my house, and I pay tribute together, causing me to be happy.

After the complaint, the dog continued to dig the melon pulp and waited silently for the expectation.

Then the sun in the sky was pulled from the top half to the bottom half.

"Ahem! Dog, why don't I go to the gate of the Gongyuan and take a look? Dang Lang couldn't stay any longer, and asked the dog in a loud voice.

The dog wants to say, go, go! You hurry up, but think about it, it's all at this point, those officials who have reported the good news haven't come yet, there are only ten people in total, and they should have been delivered long ago, what does this mean?

Sadly, he dropped the wooden spoon, kicked the already miserable cold melon to pieces, and the dog silently returned to the table to sit.

Seeing this, a few people next to him knew that the dog was in a bad mood, so they had to turn around and go, and Da Lang sighed, it would be nice if Wang Hou and Xiao Lang were there, but it was a pity that the two of them went to the Shuzhou Shuai Si to participate in the martial arts competition.
