Chapter 360: Hey, the title of "On Young China" ...... (1st Update)
Chapter 360
Wang Yang's calligraphy, for most of the past six months, has been practicing hard almost every day, and the thin gold body of this hand is already more and more profound than after the initial crossing.
Coupled with long-term practice of calligraphy, I can finally write a thousand words without scattered penmanship. Wang Yang's pen is like flying, and his thoughts are like springs. Instead, those who had been paying attention to him turned their eyes on him again.
"With Wang Wushan's great talent, maybe today I will be able to see a good article that will make us hearty and popular." The person who said this was the host of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the senior waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
Wang Yang's Mulan poem that day is still evocative to this day, and Wang Hanlin next to him also nodded thoughtfully. "It's a pity that we will need to copy the paper in a vague name, and we won't know until tomorrow."
Although the time of the palace examination is only one day, these examination papers are copied in name and then handed over to those examiners to judge.
The examiners need to fight at night to complete the marking work, so it is generally the morning meeting of the next morning, and these examiners will present the papers that they have arranged in order of merit and inferiority to today.
And after the Son of Heaven reviews it, this will announce the results.
While Wang Yang wrote, he had to carefully avoid some words and phrases that were not suitable for this era, delete and subtract, and add some of his own experiences.
At noon, the eunuchs led them aside in batches to relieve their hands, eat, and then return to the examination room.
Finally, when it was close to dusk, the article of nearly 2,000 words scattered was completed. Only then did he slowly exhale a turbid breath.
At this time, there are still many people who are struggling to write, Zhao Ji's goods are like this, and Li Yu seems to have stopped writing for a while, and saw Wang Yang looking around, showing an inquiring expression.
Wang Yang smiled and bowed slightly, while Li Yu showed a confident and smug smile, which means that my brother wrote very well today, and there must be no problem.
Soon, Zhao Ji finally stopped writing slowly, and after carefully looking at his article, he finally showed a satisfied expression.
As time passed, most of the candidates' pens were put down, and at this time, the hall was gradually dim, and at this time, a eunuch stood up and gave an order, took out a small incense burner, and inserted an incense stick into the incense burner.
That means that once this incense is burned out, it means that the temple examination is over, and no one is allowed to write again.
In the morning, from the beginning of the hour to the end of the unitary hour, almost five hours, nearly ten hours, Rao is a young man like Wang Yang, and he couldn't help but sit uncomfortable.
And when the incense burns out, all the candidates can't get up easily, and their own eunuchs come over, take away their exam papers one by one, and then take them to copy their names.
And Zhao Xu, who had also stayed up for almost a day, was also very tired, and after standing up and saying a few crooked words, a group of candidates saluted the Son of Heaven before leaving the hall.
Out of the main hall, Zhao Ji couldn't wait to walk to Wang Yang's side. "Sir, today I made a "Treatise on Vaxia", I wonder what kind of strategy you wrote about, sir?"
"Me? I wrote an essay entitled "On Juvenile China". Wang Yang's footsteps paused slightly, and he glanced back at the hall where the lights were gradually rising, and it still looked extraordinarily tall and majestic in the smoke.
"On Juvenile China?" Li Yu, who also came over at this time, looked at Wang Yang with a confused face, what the hell is this topic?
When he asked about the content again, Wang Yang sold expensive rice, and he only said that he would know it tomorrow, and then asked about Zhao Ji and Li Yu.
Although he was a little depressed when Wang Yang diverted the topic, when he talked about his masterpieces, he made Zhao Ji, the little prince who likes to show off, very embarrassed, and even recited a passage from his "Treatise on Cutting Summer" on the spot.
When he left the palace, he was pounced on by the little girl Master Li, who had been waiting outside all day, and grabbed his big hand and kept asking.
And Liu Yiyi glanced at Li Qingzhao, whose eyes were stuck in Wang Yang's body and couldn't move away anymore, turned her eyes, and led Li Qingzhao to walk over there.
"Brother, how did you do in the exam? …… Brother Wang, what about you, seeing that you are smiling quite happily, there should be no problem, right? Li Qingzhao first said hello to his brother, and before Li Yude could get out, his eyes had already fallen on Wang Yang.
But those who gave Li Yu a terrier were about to have a myocardial infarction. couldn't help but glared at Wang Yang indignantly.
Wang Yang didn't pay attention to Li Yu's behavior as a single dog, but nodded with a smile and replied. "I don't think it's a problem, but whether the examiner has a problem or not, it's not up to me to guess."
Hearing this, many candidates who passed by Wang Yang and others also nodded thoughtfully, indeed, today everyone has taken out the ability to show their magic at the bottom of the box.
Although he is very satisfied, who can know whether his article will win the favor of those judges. It's just that fortunately, as long as there is no big difference, then those who participate in the temple examination will definitely be able to pass.
What everyone wants to fight for most in the palace examination is just about the final ranking of the imperial examination.

A side hall in the palace was brightly lit, and Su Dongpo and the examiners who were in charge of judging the papers were here to read the copied examination papers.
"The writing of this exam paper is good, but unfortunately the theme is unclear, and it should be a middle and upper ......" After Su Dongpo finished reading an exam paper, he wrote a comment on the exam paper, and then handed it to the little official next to him, and picked up a new exam paper.
At this moment, an examiner let out a soft sigh, which immediately attracted an examiner next to him who had just put down the judgment paper and was stretching.
After this person saw it, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. "It's strange, it's the first time the old man has seen such a discussion......"
Soon, several judges crowded over, and some people even shook their heads and chanted when they saw the highlights. "The wisdom of the youth is the wisdom of the country, the wealth of the youth is the wealth of the country, and the strength of the youth is the strength of the country......"
"It is not advisable to talk about the immaturity and erection of teenagers throughout the article." At this time, Zhu Guangting, who was one of the judges of the judges, stroked his long gray beard, and listened to the whole article full of how the young man was and how he was old.
As soon as these words came out, the officials who judged the file all looked at each other. At this time, the senior waiter of the Ministry of Rites shook his head approvingly. "Lord Zhu's words are wrong, Gao thinks that the whole article is brilliant, it is a rare good article, the young man should be vigorous, although the old man is old, but he also envy the young ......man."
"A few people, what kind of volume is it, can you let the old man take a look?" At this time, Su Dongpo, who was also attracted to attention, also spoke.
As soon as Su Dongpo, who was the chief examiner for this paper, let go, everyone stopped talking, and the examiner hurriedly took the paper and came to Su Dongpo to present it.
"Huh? ......The title of "On Juvenile China" is quite interesting......" Su Dongpo couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, stroked his long beard, and admired it carefully.
