Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Night Market
Compared with entering the examination room, the procedure of leaving the examination room is slower.
More than 2,000 schoolchildren are in a trance, and the slightest carelessness will cause chaos.
Before entering the venue, the schoolchildren were in high spirits and full of confidence in themselves. But after a full day of exams, many people already have a good idea of how well they did in the exam.
Those who do well in the test are happy; The one who waved badly looked depressed.
When queuing up to leave the tribute courtyard, Sun Dan saw that many schoolchildren were too weak to walk, and they needed someone to help them move forward step by step. During the roll call, there were even students who cried loudly and jumped into the pond dug by the tributary to prevent the water from going away.
As for the crazy old boy before, it seems that there was no black after being inserted
The imperial examination is related to the future of scholars and the future life of schoolchildren, and the tragedy is even more tragic than the battlefield of swords and swords.
It's just that Sun Dan no longer has the heart to look at the faces of all beings in this rolling floating world.
There should be no problem with the talent in this department, if history does not change greatly, Emperor Zhengde will fall into the water in September this year and die in March of the following year. Then Emperor Jiajing succeeded to the throne, and after the new emperor ascended the throne, he would generally open Enke and hold a township test in advance.
That is, from now on. By next fall, Sun Dan has only one year to prepare for the exam.
The township examination is different from the hospital examination, not only the examination of the eight strands, but also the examination of official document writing, and the edict, the edict, and the table are each written. The problem is out, this kind of thing Sun Dan is not familiar with. At that time, the materials for the imperial examination were not stored when they were collected.
Even if you successfully pass the township examination, after obtaining the qualifications to be an official, you will have to take the examination in Beijing to participate in the examination. This thing is not good at children.
It seems that I will be busy in the coming year.
First of all, it is necessary to get in touch with the violent organs of the state through certain channels, be familiar with the writing of official documents of the organs, and find out the operation mode of the government organs, so that they can write well in the future writing and policy discussions.
It seems that Sun Fu can't stay any longer, and he can't touch the superstructure of a high-rise bottle as a gardener. Besides, Mrs. Liu and Aunt Jing in the Sun Mansion were quite jealous of themselves, and it was not interesting to stay any longer.
Fortunately, once he passed the college examination and gained fame, Sun Dan would be able to roam the world without being constrained by household registration management.
The Ming Dynasty was particularly strict in the management of household registration, and after Zhu Yuanzhang set the world, he completely inherited the household registration system of the Yuan Dynasty, and divided the household registration into three categories: civilian households, military households, and artisan households.
Hongwu 14, and issued an edict to compile a yellow book of enslavement throughout the country, fill in the household sticker for each household, and the government will verify the population, farmland, assets, etc.
Ordinary people who are 30 miles away from home have to go to the government to issue a road guide, explaining the reason for traveling, the time required on the road, and when to go home.
As a result, many people have never traveled far throughout their lives.
Fortunately, the Ming Dynasty ruled the world with scholars, but he was very tolerant of scholars. As long as the scholar obtains fame, he can obtain the privilege of being exempted from all labor and taxes, can be equipped with a sword, can travel the world, and will not sleep until the middle of the night and be knocked on the door to check the temporary residence permit, resident ID card, marriage certificate and other messy things.
In other words, as long as the undergraduate college test is released, Sun Dan will be transformed into a privileged class of the Ming Empire.
Sun Dan waited in line to sing the trumpet out of the examination room, and pondered in his heart: Anyway, I still have dozens of taels of silver wrapped around my hand, and I will mix in Sun's Mansion these days, and after waiting for the list, I will go to the capital to find Li Meiting. Didn't he work as an official, and he should be very familiar with the writing of official documents of the current organs, so he simply studied with him for a year first, and enjoyed the scenery of the capital by the way.
After crossing into the Ming Dynasty, I also ran back and forth between Gaoping and Jinan, but I didn't know what other places looked like.
As soon as he thought of this, Sun Danyue thought of Beijing and opened his eyes.
Sun Hao's number is ahead of Sun Dan. One step out of the examination room, and when Sun Dan finally walked out of the gate of the Gongyuan, he saw that there was a lot of excitement outside, at least three or five thousand people. It turned out that there were more than 2,000 candidates in the examination room, plus the families and slaves of the candidates who came to wait, as well as the lively people, crowding a Gongyuan square.
Everywhere there was the clamor of schoolchildren shouting about their relatives and friends, and occasionally the cries of hawkers. I don't know when, a lot of sheds were built in the square, some selling chaos, some selling art, and some selling boiled and burned.
After eating dry food for a day, and being exhausted to death from the exam, many schoolchildren were not in a hurry to go back to the inn, so they simply sat in front of the night market stall and ate something.
Sun Hao was already waiting outside the door.
He looked strange, his body trembled, and he looked like he couldn't give up.
Sun Dan stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Brother Hao, how did you do in the exam?" ”
"It seems that "should" Sun Hao smiled reluctantly, laughing more ugly than crying, he put his stinky big mouth to Sun Dan's ear, and whispered with a crying voice: "Brother Dan, I" I copied it all word for word, I saw you sleep all day before, and I was still worried."
"Nothing to worry about." Sun Dan couldn't stand his bad breath, so he hurriedly moved his head away, and said with a smile: "I'll talk about this later, is there anyone at home?" What about the other candidates? ”
"Sun Yue and Chuan Xin... They were waiting in a few tents built by Sun Jia, originally, they wanted to go home if they wanted to knock the lion. However, Lao Tzu can't do this kind of unrighteous thing, saying that he wants to leave you, and he won't wait for you to leave the examination room, and he won't go home. ”
Sun Dan was moved, but also a little puzzled: "Why hasn't Sun Jia gone back yet?" ”
Sun Hao said that Sun Jia hadn't been home since he sent Sun Dan to the examination room, so he recruited a few, and the guys set up three sheds in the square to start a business. Of course, on the surface, she only told her family that she rented a stall and waited for her younger brother Sun Gui.
"This little girl is really an economic animal. I don't know how her business is today? ”
"Hey, hey, it's over." Sun Hao finally recovered his composure from the excitement, his body did not tremble, and said with a smile: "All day, Sun Jia sold more than 600 copies of "Journey to the West". ”
"Hey, take me there."
When I came to Sun Jia's shed, I saw Sun Yue and others sitting in it, and several schoolchildren of the Sun family were happy or worried, with rich expressions. However, Sun Yue's face was calm and calm.
Seeing Sun Dan and Sun Hao coming, Sun Yue nodded slightly at them, and only said lightly: "Sun Dan is also here, I didn't see you when I gathered in the morning, I was still worried, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to catch up with this hospital exam." Among the schoolchildren of the Sun family, only you and I Sun Gui may be able to pass the exam, if you miss the exam date, it will be a pity. However, it is nothing to take the exam later, and it is also good for you to practice more articles. ”
Although his tone was indifferent, there was an indescribable arrogance: "I missed the last issue because of my health, but the training over the past year or so has made me more confident, and the older the words under my hand are."
In retrospect, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing for me. ”
Sun Dan was tired of hearing this, and he didn't want to say anything.
There were schoolchildren from the Sun family complimenting beside him: "Brother Yue, how did you do in this college exam, can you win?" ”
"Nonsense, even Brother Yue can't get in, and we don't need to take the test."
Sun Yue listened to the questions of the schoolchildren, with a hint of trium in his eyebrows, and replied: "I will win." ”
Another round of compliments.
Sun Hao pursed his lips and snorted in his nose.
Sun Dan didn't want to talk nonsense with Sun Yue, so he quietly walked to Sun Jia's side and said, "Sun Jia, you have been waiting here all day?" ”
Sun Jia nodded and whispered, "If you don't come out, I won't go back." ”
Sun Dan smiled silently: "Aren't you afraid of your mother's scolding?" ”
"Auntie won't care about me." Sun Jia suddenly said proudly: "Aunt Jing still owes me twenty taels of silver, and she annoyed me, so she asked her to pay it back." ”
Sun Dan was shocked, and urged his mother to urge him, this Sun Jia is really powerful.
He seems to have heard that Aunt Jing's family has two brothers, both of whom are broken and prodigals, and they only know how to fool around on weekdays. Once he ran out of money, he ran to Sun's mansion and asked Aunt Jing for money, and if he didn't give it, he would make a big fuss. Aunt Jing is very careful in her life in the house, how can she lose this face, but whenever these two brothers come to the door, they will give money to knock it out.
However, Aunt Jing doesn't have much money, and she probably borrowed a lot from her daughter.
Eating soft mouths and taking soft hands, it is estimated that she is also a little afraid of Sun Jia's daughter.
I was about to laugh, when suddenly, someone shouted: "Look, the little genius of the Sun family has come out." ”
"What a little genius came out."
With a shout, countless people rushed towards Sun Jia's shed, squeezing the three pergolas made of bamboo poles and reed mats. "Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, it's going to collapse!" The guy who sold the book was shouting, and several scholars of the Sun family were also shouting loudly.
Sun Dan was taken aback, and hurriedly protected Sun Jia behind him.
Sun Yue thought that everyone was coming to see him, so he stood up with a smile on his face, and was about to speak, when a student who looked like a scribe pushed away the crowd with two family members and squeezed forward: "Who is the little genius of the Sun family, the young man of Jinan Tongsheng Shi came to ask for advice." ”
When Sun Yue heard this name, he seemed to have some impressions. He remembered that this person was quite famous among the children of Jinan Mansion, and his father had been promoted to a people, and he was also a celebrity in Jinan Mansion. This young man was six years old, and at the age of twelve, he passed the two major examinations of the county and the government. It's a pity that I got stuck in the hospital exam, and this card is six years.
However, Shi Qingqing has been studying quietly in the past six years, and the more mature and sophisticated his articles are, he can be regarded as a famous talent in Shandong. If nothing else, Jinke should be able to win.
Sun Yue thinks he is a little talent, Shi Qingqing is a young talent, and when a talented man sees a talent, he naturally cherishes him.
Sun Yue hurriedly smiled and arched his hand: "Sun Yue of the Sun family, Marquis of Huichang, has seen Brother Shi Nian, and he is ashamed and ashamed.
"Wrong, wrong!" Shi Young Man shook his hand again and again: "Brother Yue, don't be surprised, what I'm looking for is the little genius of your Sun family, the breezy Sun Dan." ”
The smile on Sun Yue's face froze, and the children of the Sun family around him also quieted down. At the same time, his eyes fell on Sun Dan, who was chatting with Sun Jia on the side.
Sun Hao was already looking at Sun Yue. The brother with eyes on the top of his head was not pleasing to the eye, and when he heard Shi Qingqing say this, he laughed. He pulled Sun Dan over, pointed at him and said, "Brother Shi Nian, this is the young genius Sun you are looking for." ”
