When Fang Qiao heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, as if he had experienced a catastrophe of life and death, and he was extremely afraid, and he was extremely grateful and bowed deeply to Wang Junlin, and said: "Thank you Master Hou for your success, and the students are grateful." ”

After speaking, he was afraid that the young marquis with vicious eyes would regret it again, so he carried the tattered futon, covered his face and rushed into the examination hall, and made up his mind that he would definitely not be able to disassemble the clothes on his body in the past two days and go to see the mezzanine inside. ”

"Wait!" At this moment, an imperial historian suddenly shouted.

Fang Qiao, who had already stepped into the door with one foot, changed suddenly, and a heart rose to his throat again.

"Master Hou, since this person has been found to be entrained, he should be disqualified from the exam according to the regulations." The imperial historian clasped his fist at Wang Junlin and said loudly and confidently.

Wang Junlin glanced at him, and vaguely remembered that this person was from the Guanlong nobleman Yu's gate, and there was an old man in the family who was about to enter the earth was the Zhou and Sui dynasties Shangzhuguo, and as far as he knew, the Yu family and Yang Su, the Duke of Yueguo, were in-laws, and the two families had always advanced and retreated together.

Wang Junlin has always been unkind to people who are hostile to him in the first place, or who are enemies in the first place, and at this moment, he instantly understood the origin of the other party, glanced at this person coldly, and said one word: "Get out!" ”

"You go in!" After speaking, Wang Junlin no longer paid attention to the name Yu Yushi, but shouted to Fang Qiao again, who ran into the examination hall as fast as he could.

"Qin Anhou! You ......" This name surnamed Yushi suddenly turned red, and wanted to say cruel words, but he was afraid of Wang Junlin's fierce name, and he didn't dare to say it for a while, which made Wang Junlin despise this person a little, and he was still thinking about various arguments to refute this person.

As an imperial historian, he didn't even have the courage to speak, and he still had the courage to be an imperial history, which also proves that this person just spoke out to stop it, not out of public intentions, but out of his own hostile relationship with Wang Junlin, and wanted to add to Wang Junlin's blockage.

"This official will definitely impeach you." Yu surnamed Yushi gritted his teeth and said in the end, but Wang Junlin was too lazy to look at him.

With the fish named Fang Qiao who slipped through the net just now, the officers checked more and more seriously, picking up clothes, slipping shoes, removing brushes, touching quilts, etc., without a teacher, the effect was very different from just now, and it didn't take long for a hill to be piled up at the door of the examination institute.

As a result, many of the candidates who were in line secretly retreated and threw the things they were carrying into the gutter behind the examination hall.

Zhou Chengyan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, got a report from his subordinates, and he came here at some point, and bowed politely to Wang Junlin, and said with some embarrassment: "Qin Anhou, the hour is not early, if you check them one by one, it will be too late." ”

The officials of the Ministry of Rites next to him, the imperial historians of the Imperial History Terrace, and the candidates saw that a dignified Shangshu actually took the lead in saluting Wang Junlin without saying anything, and spoke in such a tone, they couldn't help but be taken aback at the same time, they were also a little puzzled.

Zhou Chengyan's official quality is three levels higher than his own, Wang Junlin didn't dare to hold it up, and hurriedly returned the salute, why the other party was so polite, he naturally knew that it was nothing more than a weak heart or a request for him.

With a sneer in his heart, Wang Junlin looked up and found that the time was indeed not early, and said loudly to nearly half of the students at the entrance of the examination hall: "This official Wang Junlin, I think you have heard of it." In order not to delay the start of the test on time, the people behind will no longer strip and search. ”

When the candidates heard this, many people were overjoyed.

Wang Junlin snorted coldly, and said in a cold voice: "You yourself throw the things you carry into this bamboo basket, and you are not to blame, if you are discovered by this official during the examination in the past two days, beware that I will let you be stripped naked and hung in front of the city gate, so that everyone in the world knows what your Sven looks like." ”

The sentient beings were terrified in their hearts, thinking of the ruthlessness of this one, few people dared to take chances.

It didn't take long for everyone to go their separate ways, and as for whether there were any students who wanted to take the risk, that was a matter for the future.

After a while, the entrance of the examination hall immediately returned to quiet, leaving only stinky shoes and countless confetti on the ground, which looked a little sad. The officials of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly arranged for people to clean up to meet the will of the palace examination, and also arranged the incense case, and they were busy for a while.

While everyone was busy, they thought that this poisonous general Hou Ye's behavior was really very different from that of ordinary Great Sui officials, if they ignored those entrainment things, how could there be a reason to let the candidates enter the exam after they were found out today? However, after all, this is the first time that the examination has been held, and some rules are also in the groping stage, and Wang Junlin, as the chief supervisor, has this power.

Wang Junlin watched everyone busy with some inexplicability, while talking to Zhou Chengyan beside him. Zhou Chengyan showed great affection for Wang Junlin, and said: "Qin Anhou is conscientious, and this official will definitely ask for credit for you in His Majesty afterwards." However, Qin Anhou was busy all morning today, and as soon as the will arrives, worship the ancestors, and after the drum sounds, he might as well go to the courtyard to rest. ”

Wang Junlin glanced at him with a smile, shook his head and said, "Where is the office, I have to wander around the examination room for a while, where is there any spare time." ”

An extremely faint cold light flashed in Zhou Chengyan's eyes, and he laughed softly, covering up the embarrassment of Wang Junlin's refusal, and casually said a few words that were not nutritious, and then resigned from his position.

Half an hour later, the holy decree did not arrive, but it was Yang Jian, the Son of Heaven, who came in person, but the procedure was still agreed upon by the Ministry of Rites.

"Wang Aiqing, don't let me down." Yang Jian looked at Wang Junlin before returning to the palace and said solemnly.

Wang Junlin sighed in his heart, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will definitely go all out." ”

……

……

With a few gongs, the two prison officials walked out solemnly with a group of guards specially sent by Yang Jian from the palace. As soon as they walked into the examination hall, the candidates crowded in the examination hall gradually quieted down, listened to the command of the prison officer, and lined up with a straight face.

As early as when they entered the examination hall, on the wall behind the door, there were notices pasted indicating where candidates from different regions and different states and counties took the exam, and there were officials waiting to guide them. Although the number of candidates is large, there is no confusion at all.

However, before going to their own examination room, all the candidates were led to the square in front of the main hall of the examination hall.

Gao Ying, Zhou Chengyan, and Wang Junlin led the next group of examiners and stood in front of the main hall. The worship of Confucius, Mozi and other holy teachers in the main hall is Gao Ying's proposal, which was appreciated and agreed by Yang Jian, so that it has become a process that must be gone through before the exam.

Listening to the command of the salute official, Wang Junlin bowed down with thousands of people, and bowed quietly to the sage Confucius who was not born in the sky and was like a long night.

Bow and bow again.

Wang Junlin found that almost all the candidates' nervousness, anticipation, worry, excitement and other miscellaneous thoughts were swept away in the middle of a bow. I can't help but think to myself, Gao Ying is really a capable minister.

After paying homage to the Holy Master, the square in front of the main hall of the examination institute was lined up with more than 3,000 tribute students, which were a little chaotic and crowded, and suddenly scattered like a disintegration. Under the guidance of the officials, go to the examination room where you are.

Three thousand people slowly moved forward in front of the door of the examination room, gradually merging into the examination room, and finally began the most critical juncture in their lives, if they can pass successfully, it is to jump on the dragon gate, if not, they can only return to their hometowns gloomily, and prepare for the next imperial examination that I don't know if there is still there.

This turn and turn, I don't know how many people's youth will be consumed, and there are even more stubborn people, once they fall behind, they are unwilling, dare not or ashamed to return to their hometowns, there are those who are decadent, there are those who wander, and even those who commit suicide, but more disappear without a trace.

Although it was the first imperial examination, the orthodoxy of the Great Sui had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the candidates were full of trust in the imperial court and His Majesty the Emperor, believing that as long as they were talented, they would inevitably be on the gold list.

This is a great ceremony of the country that has never been seen in all dynasties, and it is also the battlefield of life and death for these scholars. It's just that part of this battlefield is in the bright places on the field, and some of it is in the dark corners off the field.

……

……

"I've seen Gao Gong." Entering the lobby, Wang Junlin saluted Gao Ying, who was sitting in the middle, and said in a decent manner: "The door of the courtyard has been closed, without the warrants of Gao Gong and Lord Zhou, as well as the juniors, it must not be opened again. ”

Gao Ying looked at the young Qin Anhou below, and frowned imperceptibly, thinking to himself that the worm elder didn't say that he would get sick in three days, why did this one look nothing wrong on the third day today.

Doubts flashed in his heart, but Gao Ying's face had the kind look of an elder, and he smiled: "Qin Anhou has worked hard. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Wang Junlin to reply politely, the famous minister of the Great Sui generation sighed, hugged his fist to the sky with a solemn face, and said solemnly: "Kaike is to choose good materials for the country, and it is related to my Great Sui National Situation. ”

With Gao Ying's speech, all kinds of officials in the examination institute returned to their duties, and a serious and tense atmosphere quietly permeated every corner of the examination institute.

Everyone knows that His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to this imperial examination, with Gao Ying and Wang Junlin, two powerful figures, in charge, it seems that no one dares to be careless.

Wang Junlin left the hall where Gao Ying used to rest, walked into the largest examination room, looked at the small compartments that were separated one by one, and thought that it was indeed a tragedy to take the exam in a small room like a pigsty in a kennel, not to mention that it would last for several days, eating, drinking, and sleeping in it.

ps: The second more is sent, and the third is working hard, asking for support and encouragement from the field and monthly passes
