Chapter 73: The Faculty Examination Begins

The college examination is still one step away from the township examination, so it is not held in the provincial capital, and the hospital examination in various places is not necessarily regular, because the college examination is a province that is toured by Xuezheng, and Wanping is a Beijing county, which takes advantage of the early examination.

As early as before the hospital examination, Liu Dongsheng held the re-examination of the government examination of the West Road Hall, and Jia Cong, the head of the county and government double cases, personally guided Qin Zhong's skills and doorways, Qin Zhong passed the test dangerously, but Qin Zhong's ranking was at the bottom, and the hospital examination was not very optimistic.

Wanping, Daxing, Liangxiang, Fangshan, Zhuozhou, the children who have passed the government examination in five counties gathered outside the examination shed in Wanping City.

Candidates in each prefecture are sent by the teachings and instructors (official teachers) of the prefecture and county, or by the magistrate or county.

Outside the examination booth, the candidates stood in line according to the region, so that there were five teams in the West Road Hall and Courtyard Examination, and they lined up for a long time on the street outside. The officials maintained order and drove away unrelated personnel.

The guarantee and confession of the hospital examination are the same as those of the county examination and the government examination, and the state and county officials shall issue a seal to the school administration to ensure that they meet the conditions, do not ask for help, and do not impersonate themselves. However, the specifications are much stricter than the county government test, and the school administration personally sits in the town to check the errand inspection, and the person who is the guarantor must be in place, and the school government personally asks, this rule is only a little looser than the township test.

The summer sun is not very scorching, the temperature is suitable, and a few black clouds float in the head of Wanping City, which makes people feel a little heavy and nervous.

Jia Cong was in the Wanping team of the first team, and he found that the examination shed and fence had been repaired, Liu Dongsheng was resolute, and the yamen had three steps and one sentry, and five steps and one post.

The candidates straddled the exam basket with their hands, dull and nervous, and there were candidates who were stupid in reading, reciting Zhu Xi's collection of notes with words.

"No wonder Tang Taizong said: The heroes of the world, enter me. No one asked in the cold window for ten years, and he became famous all over the world in one fell swoop, and the imperial examination system has created many tragedies and recruited many talents...... Jia Cong couldn't help but sigh.

On the wooden fence at the entrance of the examination shed, there is a case on the left, and Liu Dongsheng sits on the chair behind the case, and rolls his name according to the seal in his hand.

The state and county officials from all over the country stood behind him, with solemn expressions, and from time to time looked at the ranks of their states and counties, as if to say: Don't embarrass me.

Standing on the right is the student who is the guarantor, Liu Dongsheng is a candidate in the roll call, if there is a student as a guarantor, the student must stand up and prove it.

"Jia Cong!" When Liu Dongsheng read this name, Wang Yinglin on the right stood up to certify, and Qin Zhong and Kuang Liuhe were also guaranteed by Wang Yinglin.

Watching the messenger search Jia Cong's test basket, body, and take off his shoes and socks, Wang Yinglin said in his heart: "Jia Zili, a nine-year-old Xiucai, it's up to you whether you can break the record or not......"

……

The only extra test content of the college exam is to add a scripture explanation, strategy or poetry before the start, and this time Jia Cong is naturally not a problem and can easily pass the test. At this time, the test is still the four-book question and the trial poem.

The questions of the Five Classics will not come out until the Township Hall, so ordinary readers will gnaw the Four Books to rot.

In this year's Guiyou Academy exam, Liu Dongsheng's proposition came from "The Analects, Yan Yuan": Zi said, hearing lawsuits, I Jews also, will also make no lawsuits!

The table is divided into numbers according to the "Thousand Character Text", and when he saw this topic, Jia Cong said in his heart: "Lawsuit? Luo Litigant? Liu Xuetai's title seems to mean something......"

Jia Cong recalled the collection of notes by Zhu Xi, the sage who picked up ashes: "Those who hear lawsuits will be treated at the end and will be stopped." If you get to the root and clear the source, there will be no lawsuit......"

The four books should be cooked, and the collection notes of Zhu Pao ash should also be cooked.

After a little brewing, drinking water and eating breakfast, the leisurely Jia Cong had already come up with a logical article. The college examination is strict, and people like Liu Dongsheng, who are easy to make mistakes, will not come in to watch, pay attention to which candidate, so as not to make a mouthful.

It is said that it is the head of the double case, in fact, there are also children who have been tested for several years in the examination booth, and it just so happens that a buddy not far from Jia Cong is the head of the double case the year before last, Zhang Maocai, a talented son in Zhuozhou. The elimination rate of the college test is too high, and Brother Maocai was brushed down after taking the exam twice, so his head is cantilevered, the cone is thorny, and the fluorescent snow is reflected in the snow, and he has studied hard for two years, this time Brother Maocai is full of confidence!

Zhang Maocai looked at it defiantly, as if to say: "The head of the hospital examination case is my Zhang!" Don't rob me! ”

However, in Jia Cong's eyes, it seems that he has seen several strong men in "Water Margin", holding big knives: Do you want to eat knife noodles or chaotic noodles?

Jia Cong smiled dumbly: "Zhuozhou Zhang Maocai? I was queuing up just now, and I was still reciting Zhu Xi's collection notes, isn't there this benevolent brother? ”

The field is ruthless, the competition is ruthless, only the big waves can dig out the golden pearls, the double pride of Jingxian Qi Jia and Gu Zhen were defeated in the government test, and Jia Baoyu was also defeated in the government test. In the examination room, except for himself, everyone else is an opponent, and after taking the exam for two lifetimes, Jia Cong not only has strong self-confidence, but also has a strong psychological quality and test-taking thinking!

The test questions of this academy are not difficult to say, they have been written by predecessors, and some candidates memorize them and copy them. If Xuezheng doesn't know a certain article of his predecessors, there is hope of getting through the test, but Liu Dongsheng, who even has to read "Xiaolin Guangji", is not easy to be deceived......

In fact, the three-way boy test, although not as strict as the township hall, but for people with bad luck, they may not be able to get over it for a lifetime. In the Ming Dynasty, there was a candidate who could not pass the children's examination, so he simply donated the prisoner and directly participated in the township examination......

"When the cobwebs mercilessly seized my hearth, when the smoke of the ashes sighed the sorrow of poverty, I still wrote with beautiful snowflakes: believe in the future!"

Reading the poet's index finger inspirational poems, Jia Cong's pen is like a god: "Looking at the sage's lawsuit, there is a precursor who listens!" ”

"If the husband hears the lawsuit, the lawsuit cannot be dispensed without, and if there is no lawsuit, the lawsuit will not be heard, and the words of the son are deep and delicious!"

……

The examination room is like a birdcage, and you have to be watched by someone once you release your hands, which really exercises the patience of the candidates, smooths out their temper, and when they wait for the township test, they have to stay alone in the number room, and no one communicates for a few days and nights, which is probably comparable to being in prison, right?

Therefore, the moment I came out of the exam, while worrying about the results, I suddenly felt relieved, and many of the same year sighed: I knocked over the inkstone, I had diarrhea, I didn't sleep well last night, I was half an hour late...... Those who are remorseful, those who are indignant, there are all kinds of things in the world, and restaurants, teahouses, and fireworks have become their places to vent.

"Whale Qing, how do you solve the problem?" Jia Cong asked them to go to the east gate.

Qin Zhong shook his head and shook his head: "Why is Sage Kong so serious? It's a lawsuit, and there is money! ”

Qin Zhong's logical thinking needs to be strengthened, he knows that it is difficult to pass, so he simply broke the jar and broke it, Kuang Liuhe couldn't help laughing, Jia Cong said angrily: "What is the problem?" It's too much of a bastard, I'll take the test next year. ”

Qin Zhong asked Kuang Liuhe again, but Kuang Liuhe was quite confident: "The sage's hearing of the lawsuit is just a matter of respecting the people and benevolence!" ”

Jia Cong was a little relieved, at this time it was about the evening unitary time, they stopped at the juggling platform on the inner street of Yongchang Gate at the East Gate, the people gathered together, and after a while, Wang Yinglin and several county students arrived as scheduled, Qin Zhong was surprised: "What are you doing here?" ”

"Ask for the people's lives." Wang Yinglin said with a smile and pointed to the dung basket on the stage: "This is still Zili's idea, it's very good." You have just finished the exam, and there are still four or five days before the list is released, so it is better to watch the drama to slow down the atmosphere, and the show is about to start! ”

Jia Cong said in his heart: "Luo Zhiba, your death date has arrived, and today next year will be your sacrifice day!" ”
