After the inspection, one person was given three candles and entered the examination room.

The number room of the examination room is arranged in the order of "Thousand Character Text". Jia Rui's room is in the "Xuan" row, and he has been walking inside until he reaches the end.

After lighting the candles, I saw my room clearly.

The room is six feet high, four feet deep, and three feet wide. There are two planks in it, one high and one low.

The low plank is used for sitting, and the high one is used as a table on which you can answer questions.

When sleeping, take down the high plank and put it together with the low one to use it as a bed.

Candidates entered the venue one after another, and since there was no exam yet, some people were walking around inside, and many people gathered together and talked about it.

"Hurry up and go to bed, you don't want to take the exam tomorrow?"

The patrolling soldiers shouted a few times, and the people gradually became honest.

It didn't take long for Jarry to feel that something was wrong.

I saw that people kept walking to the side of their room, and they came back as soon as they returned.

Then there was the smell of urine.

Walking over with a candle, I saw that there was a toilet not far from here. But many people are too lazy to take those few steps, and they solve it on the spot nearby.

Anyway, I've been assigned to the "stinky number".

The room near the toilet is called a stinky room because of its poor smell. Whether it's sleeping or taking exams here, it's hard to smell that.

"Hey, everyone, go to the toilet if you want to, everyone is literati, you can't do this."

Are you still literati, you actually defecate everywhere, what about your quality?

The elites of the Dade Empire, in the future, you will be officials and teachers, you can't be like this.

Jia Rui shouted a few times, and the people who came were better, and they all went to the toilet.

But it didn't take long for the people who came after to be like that again.

There was really no recruitment, so Jia Rui went to find the patrolling soldiers.

The soldier shouted a few times, muttered, "I'm still a reader, the book has been read in the dog's belly", and walked away.

Jia Rui returned to the room, and just lay down, he heard a commotion again, and saw a man at the base of the wall.

Jia Rui's fire came up at once, and he grabbed the guy and fell over at once.

"Why did you hit someone?"

Although the accent was different, Jia Rui still understood.

"Hit you? I'm still scolding you. You are a pig and a dog, you are simply Sven scum. ”

"Someone's coming, beating someone."

The guy shouted, two soldiers came over, pulled the two apart, and then the inspector also came, followed by a white-bearded old man, it was Chen Wenxiang.

"Ah, isn't this Tianxiang, what's going on?"

Chen Wenxiang said.

Jia Rui told what had happened.

"Hahaha, you're really unlucky, you actually got assigned to the stinky number. The taste here is really not good. ”

"Inspector, the smell here is really unbearable, there are a lot of empty numbers, give me a new number."

The examiner also understood what was going on.

"Hey, that's not good, the numbers are all arranged, and the number on the test paper is also this number, and it can't be changed at the moment."

"Why don't you write a few words on the wall and light a candle here. If you look at it, you won't be drowning here. ”

"Well, yes, Chen Wenxiang, go get a few candles, put them here and light them, and you can write a few words on the wall."

Although Chen Wenxiang is old, he is in good health, and he quickly took a candle pen and ink and wrote on the wall: "It is forbidden to defecate here." ”

"Tianxiang, it's okay this time."

"Well, I hope so."

Jia Rui didn't dare to be too optimistic, this kind of thing, he had encountered it in his previous life, and the words on the sign were much more ruthless than this, and it didn't work.

"Tianxiang, what do you think of this time, are you sure? If you want to do business, it's still too late, it's late after dawn. ”

"Don't do it, leave it to fate."

"It's okay, just wait for the next time, maybe I'll try it in Shenjing next year, and you'll figure it out."

"You're going to Shenjing next year?"

"yes, I'll try it next year."

"Are you sure you can get the lift this time?"

"Hehe, let me tell you the truth, if I wanted to win, I would have won it a long time ago, and I just didn't want to win."

"Why is that?"

"Didn't I tell you, in order to make money?"

"Why did you think about it this time, you have made enough money?"

"It's okay, by the way, I'll go and get a Hanlin Academy to edit it back."

"Mr. Chen, don't be upset when I speak, the editing of the Hanlin Academy is not something that can be obtained casually."

The Hanlin Academy belongs to the highest academic institution, and at least Jinshi is qualified to enter, just with Chen Wenxiang, Jia Rui is a little unexpected.

"Hehe, you don't understand. It is the practice of our dynasty that as long as you are over 80 years old and take the examination, you will not be successful, and the emperor will also reward a national prince and supervisor of the industry, or the title of editor of the Hanlin Academy. Although he has no money and no official position, it is still very effective to take it back and bluff people. ”

Jia Rui understands that this situation is equivalent to giving an honorary title. One is to encourage people to read, and the other is to show respect for the elderly.

While the two were talking, another guy went to the base of the wall to relieve himself.

"Hey, don't you see the writing on the wall?"

The guy looked back at Jia Rui, perhaps seeing Jia Rui angry, he muttered to the bathroom.

"Sir, this ban won't work."

"That can't be helped, it used to be. One year, it was written that the whole family died, and it didn't work. ”

"I have a way."

Jia Rui picked up the pen and went over, and filled in a line of words under "It is forbidden to defecate here": "Otherwise, it will fail repeatedly." ”

"Okay, this is good. These people, the whole family is dead, and he doesn't care. But if he fails to do it repeatedly, he will never do it. ”

This trick really worked, and the people who came behind looked at these words, hesitated, and obediently went to the toilet.

What a bunch of cheap billets.

Chen Wenxiang left, and Jia Rui began to sleep. Although it was night, it was the south, and it was still hot in August.

The taste is not good, but I can still tolerate it, and after a long time, my sense of smell has also adapted.

It's just that there are too many mosquitoes, and it's unbearable. But there is no way, so I can only hold on.

In a daze, I don't know how long it took, a commotion woke up Jarry.

I can't wash up or anything, rub my eyes, and prepare for the exam.

The drums beat outside, and when it was time for the exams to begin.

Today's subjects are Bagu Wen, the three questions of the "Four Books", each of which is more than 200 words, and the four questions of the scriptures, each of which is more than 300 words.

Jia Rui read through the topic and felt that it was not too difficult.

The first of these questions has been seen in the manuscripts left to him by Lin Ruhai. That was Lin Ruhai's study when he participated in the imperial examination.

He thinks the article is very well written. I watched it several times. I also analyzed the layout of the plot.

I can even remember to solve and underwrite questions.

Could it be that for my sake of helping him, Lin Ruhai's spirit in the sky is blessing me?

The first question in the first exam often makes a strong first impression on the examiner, and it seems that I am lucky.

Thinking back to Lin Ruhai's article and polishing it appropriately, this article will be considered a success.

After watching it twice, Jia Rui felt quite satisfied. Let's start answering the second question.

He didn't answer the question quickly, but he still finished it before he could finish it, so he began to transcribe.

Because he was used to punctuation marks in his previous life, he was very careful not to use punctuation marks when transcribing.

Although he spread punctuation, and many people are using it now, it has not yet become an official thing.

At this time, if punctuation marks appear on the scroll, it will be considered as a special mark on the scroll, which is cheating.

Shen Shizheng, all the articles were transcribed, checked again, and when there were no errors, he waited for the paper to be submitted.

During the day, the weather was hot, and there was a peculiar smell at the base of the wall, so I had no choice but to endure it.

The current exam is different from his previous life, and he can't hand in the paper immediately after answering the paper, and he must wait until the end of the exam, and every thirty people can be released outside.

Finally, at the end of the application period, the exam ended.

Jia Rui walked out of the examination room and let out a long sigh of relief.

Suddenly, a man howled.

"It's over, it's over, it's all over now."

I saw a candidate sitting on the ground, patting his thigh and howling.

Jia Rui saw that it was the guy who defecated at the base of the wall last night and clashed with him.

"What's wrong?"

The person next to him asked.

"In my article, I used the Wenchang Xingjun sentence reading method, and I'm afraid the volume will be invalidated."

Yes? How could it be such a coincidence?

Jia Rui was surprised.

Does this mean that the sky has eyes, and even God punishes him?

See if you dare to defecate anywhere, you deserve it!
