The scene in front of the Kaifeng Mansion was destined to be remembered by everyone present, and then spread throughout the Great Song Dynasty, and finally became an enviable story.

The title of the good story is called the four women fighting for a husband or sending them to the exam, which is currently unknown.

The time has come, and the officials of Kaifeng Mansion opened the main gate of the North Courtyard to welcome all the students.

The official in charge of the inventory at the door checked everyone's household registration cards and assessment vouchers, and the two corresponded before letting people in.

The purpose of this is to prevent others from taking the test on their behalf.

After entering the door, there was a row of officials in charge of searching the body, and the movements were very rude, but none of the students dared to resist.

When it was Yang Yansi's turn, the officials restrained a little, after all, in the public, if you disrespect him, it is easy to be beaten if it is spread.

The Yang Mansion, the Cao Mansion, the Huyan Mansion, and the Princess's Mansion all sent messages to them.

I searched my body, got the seat number plate, and found the designated place to sit in.

Although the Song imperial examination system was not as harsh as it was in the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were many assessments.

Try one poem, one poem, one essay each, five strategies, ten scriptures, and ten Moyi.

Among them, poetry, fu and theory are the most important; The scriptures and the Moyi are large and time-consuming; The so-called policy questioning, also known as the current policy, will only be valued when the Ming Jingke is in the Ming Dynasty.

After all the candidates entered and sat down, the prince Zhao Yuanzuo stood on the high platform to give a lecture, and after a lecture, he began to distribute the test questions.

Yang Yansi got the test questions, opened them and took a look, the amount is indeed large enough, no wonder it takes two days to assess.

After carefully reviewing the topic, Yang Yansi decided to start with the scriptures.

The Sutra is similar to the fill-in-the-blank questions of later generations, and some classic passages are selected from the Analects, the beginning is removed, and some are cut out in the middle.

Then, ask the students to write the corresponding paragraphs according to the prompts given.

As for coping with the scriptures, Yang Yansi said that there was no pressure.

There are ten questions in the scriptures, which means that Yang Yansi basically has to write ten corresponding classic passages according to the prompts.

Yang Yansi grinded the pen, didn't need a draft, and directly began to write on the scroll.

“…… A gentleman goes to benevolence, and he becomes famous......"

The first question, this sentence is from the Analects of Morality, which means: If a gentleman has left benevolence, how can he be called a gentleman?

The person who solves the question is generally the head of the state capital, and this question must be written by Zhao Yuanzuo.

Let's talk about morality, which is very in line with Zhao Yuanzuo's personality.

Yang Yansi was confident and wrote down.

"Zi said: Wealth and nobility are what people want, and if they don't get it by their way, they don't ...... anywhere."

Question 2.

“…… Psalm 300 ......"

"Zi said: Three hundred poems, in a word, said: Thinking of innocence ......"

……

Question 5.

“…… The way is virtuous, and the ...... is courteous."

……

Question 10.

“…… What is the ...... in politics?"

……

After answering the ten questions, an hour has passed.

Yang Yansi moved his stiff hands and feet, dried the test paper, and then began to answer Moyi.

The so-called Moyi is the annotation of ancient texts, as well as understanding.

It is also ten questions.

Question 1 at the beginning,

"Zi said: Clever words, fresh and benevolent."

The meaning of this sentence is 'Confucius said: "If you speak flattering words and pretend to be pleasant, this kind of person will rarely ...... benevolence."

As soon as Yang Yansi saw this question, he felt malice, and it was obvious that Zhao Yuanzuo had learned that he would participate in this test, so he came up with this sentence.

Clearly disgusting yourself......

When did Zhao Yuanzuo become cautious?

Yang Yansi only thought about it for a moment, then put the question behind him and began to answer the question.

Yang Yansi wrote half of it, and the morning passed.

At this time, some officials will provide hot water, and the students will soak in the dry food snacks they bring and barely eat.

Yang Yansi had cakes prepared in advance in his backpack, as well as some side dishes, and they were sweet with steamed buns.

She Saihua also carefully prepared a pot of wine for him, and he had a full meal and a sip, which had a unique flavor.

"Brothers......

A shout came from the next door.

Yang Yansi was vigilant, "What are you doing?" ”

The voice next door rang out again.

"Give me a sip of your wine, I'm hungry ......"

Yang Yansi felt a little funny, and he actually met a drunkard as a neighbor in the examination room.

After looking left and right and no one noticed, Yang Yansi stuffed the wine jug over.

The person next door hurriedly snatched the flask, took a sharp sip, and sighed: "If you don't drink for an hour, you feel tired." ”

The person next door threw over the drunk wine jug and returned it to Yang Yansi, "Brother, you are a good person, I will invite you to Yanlai Lou to drink when I go back...... The wine in Yanlailou is a must-have in Bianjing, and ordinary people can't drink it. ”

Yang Yansi put away the wine jug and dishes, and replied with a smile, "If I want, there is no wine in this Bianjing City that I can't drink." ”

When the people next door heard this, they became interested, "Brother, you can really blow big words, go out together another day, let me see it." ”

Yang Yansi picked up the pen and began to prepare for the question, and replied casually, "If you have a fate, let's go together, I want to answer the question." I won't talk to you......"

The person next door was still chattering, "What is there to answer this Raushzi's question, it's not difficult at all......"

Yang Yansi no longer paid attention to the drunkard next door and began to answer the questions seriously.

Just as night fell, Yang Yansi finished writing the Ten Dao Moyi.

I lit an oil lamp and wrote down my questions.

Yang Yansi began to eat, and the chatter next door began to ask him to beg for wine again.

After learning that Yang Yansi was out of wine, he fell asleep with a hum.

Yang Yansi couldn't sleep in the examination room, and the snoring sounds around him came and went, feeling like he was on a construction site.

Staying up all night, Yang Yansi began to write poems, fu, and treatises.

The three topics are very interesting.

With the theme of loyalty and bravery, he composed a poem.

With the theme of benevolence and righteousness, I will write an article.

Write an essay on the topic of morality.

The three topics given by Zhao Yuanzuo are very large and extensive, so they also give Yang Yansi enough interval to play.

Yang Yansi fights at night, and there are many students like him, who fight at night.

Near dawn, Yang Yansi finished the draft.

I simply washed my face with the cold water provided by the officials and sobered up.

Then, it began to be copied on the scroll.

The tall and thin gold body has a different charm on the roll surface.

The handwriting is neat and the volume is neat.

After carefully checking it and making sure that there were no mistakes or omissions, Yang Yansi directly handed in the paper.

To Yang Yansi's consternation, the guy next door to him who had been snoring all night actually took the roll and handed it in before him.

That guy seemed to see Yang Yansi, nodded slightly at Yang Yansi, and walked out of the north courtyard.

Yang Yansi walked in front of Zhao Yuanzuo with the scroll, Zhao Yuanzuo didn't bother to look at him, nor did he bother to talk to him, so he directly handed the scroll to the official next to him.

Yang Yansi shrugged his shoulders, put on his backpack, and walked out of the main gate of the North Courtyard.

"Smack!"

As soon as he went out, a slap slapped Yang Yansi on the shoulder, startling him.
