Chapter 358: As I Expected

Thousands of candidates can not be done in a moment, and now, those who have advanced the examination hall can only sit there and wait.

Sun Dan saw that Zhang Xuan on the opposite side was already sitting cross-legged on the one-meter-long wooden bed to look at the nose and nose, and look at the heart, and be an old monk. This person has a calm breath in his chest. Recalling his fierce and ruthless in the Great Rites Discussion in real history, it is really like two people.

It's early spring, and it's the season of frozen sycamore flowers, and the weather is still a little cold. When Sun Dan entered the examination room, Zhi Niang put on a lot of clothes for him, and despite Sun Dan's objections, she forcibly put a fox fur on his body.

The space in the examination room was cramped, and Sun Dan felt a little hot on his body, but he didn't dare to take off his clothes.

He was delayed by Zhang Guifei for so long last night, and after returning home, it is estimated that he only slept for an hour. I sat quietly in the examination room, but I felt that my eyelids were extremely heavy, so I fell asleep on the bed with my clothes.

This small bed was too short, only one meter long, Sun Dan fell on it, but half of his body was hanging outside, so he had no choice but to put his feet on the stool.

In this way, he had to rely on both ends of his head and feet, and although his waist was hanging in the air, he still slept soundly because he was too tired.

was sleeping with drooling for a long time, and suddenly, Sun Dan woke up from his sleep suddenly.

It turned out that because there were candidates constantly entering the stadium before, there were rustling footsteps everywhere, and Sun Dan was also used to this noise. Now, the candidates have finished entering, and there was a sudden silence, which made Sun Dan wake up.

When he opened his eyes, he saw that the sky outside was already bright, and a red sun rose from the east, dyeing the sky a magnificent red.

It's about seven o'clock in the morning, Beijing time. From four o'clock to enter, it has been three hours now, and there is really enough toss.

Looking at the examination house opposite, Zhang Xuan had already opened his eyes. He sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes shining green in the darkness, like a hungry wolf. Perhaps, this is his true face, Zhang Xuan has been longing for the fame of Jinshi for a long time.

Finally, everyone has entered, and it is time to send out rolls.

This is Sun Dan's first time participating in the examination, of course, he doesn't want to come for the second time, one time is enough.

He was still very curious about what the test paper looked like in his heart, and he didn't know what the difference was between the fellow exams.

When the test paper came out, it was really different from the previous test paper.

The previous examination papers were no different from those of later generations, just sheets of paper with questions printed on them. Nowadays, the test papers are bound into a booklet, which is a booklet. It looks like a twist used by ministers.

There are five papers in total, which are the five historical essays in the first session of the three days before the examination.

The roll is 25 centimeters long and 15 centimeters wide, and it is a fine bamboo paper, thick and tough, and absorbent and good. Each volume has five pages, with a red "color" vertical line printed on the page, nine lines per page, and twenty-five characters per line to limit the size and thickness of the characters.

Sun Dan calculated that except for the title line, even if all five pages were filled, the total number of words would not exceed 2,000 words. This is also the experience that the examiners have summed up in the previous exams, otherwise, if there is no limit to the number of words, the candidates are allowed to write it down. Everyone writes tens of thousands of words in small letters, so many candidates, if they want to finish the papers, the officials who read the papers don't have to live.

The cover of the examination paper is printed with the words "Shuntianfu Gongyuan", and the words "Xth rank x" are printed on the left, which is estimated to be used for the second ranking of candidates in the future.

Below the big characters of "Shuntianfu Gongyuan" is a big circle, and the air is below the circle.

Sun Dan knew that this should be the place where the candidates signed.

After the roll was sent, Sun Dan was not in a hurry to start writing, but looked ahead curiously.

saw that Zhang Xuan jumped off the bed one by one, and hurriedly flipped through the scroll to take a look. Then he added water to the inkstone with his hands and feet, and sharpened the ink with his right hand like a grinder.

His movements were so agile that he couldn't tell that he was already forty-seven years old.

In modern times, forty-seven is in the prime of life. But in ancient times, because of nutrition, forty-seven-year-old people could basically be classified into the ranks of the elderly, and they could call themselves "old husbands". There are also many people in their forties who have gray hair, slow movement, and even lost all their teeth.

Probably because the movement was too fast, the ink in the inkstone splashed out and fell on Zhang Xuan's face, which looked quite funny.

At this time, Sun Dan realized that Zhang Xuan's right hand was trembling slightly.

It seemed that his demeanor when he sat cross-legged just now was just a cover-up, but in fact he was also very nervous.

Similarly, the examination room of the Gongyuan Academy was also filled with the sound of grinding ink, and it took a long time to stop.

Zhang Xuan was uncomfortable with Sun Dan, and looked up at Sun Dan.

Sun Dan smiled at him, pointed to his face, and signaled that there was ink on Zhang Xuan's face.

Zhang Xuan stretched out his hand and 'touched', and his face became even more flowery.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a record in the examination room, Sun Dan would have laughed out loud.

He shook his head, and also began to grind the ink, and when it was finished, he picked up the pen and wrote on the scroll: Shuntianfu lifts people Sun Dan.

I kind of wrote my name on it. Of course, after the exam, this paper must be copied down first, and the name must be handed to the examiner for reading, and the ranking will be written on the exam paper only after the ranking is arranged.

On the other side, Zhang Xuan seemed to be overly nervous, and after reading the topic, he stayed aside and thought hard, and he didn't finish writing for a long time.

Sun Dan felt strange in his heart, but he didn't think much about it. He himself was a little worried, worried about the power of the butterfly effect.

If the questions are different from those recorded in history, things are a bit of a problem. He is good at Bagu, and he is not very good at this kind of historical topic. If he doesn't rely on plagiarism and does it himself, he may not be able to get a high score.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little nervous, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore. I thought too much about it, and I couldn't do it. It's a blessing or a curse, and you can't avoid it, you have to be brave enough to face the team.

He gritted his teeth and reached out to open the scroll.

As soon as he saw the title, Sun Dan breathed a long sigh of relief: "It hasn't changed, it's the same as in real history." It seems that I have passed this scene of historical discussion. ”

The title of the first volume is: "Zhuge Liang has no heart to apply for business and uses his technique, Wang Anshi uses the truth of Shen Shang and conceals his name".

The title of the second volume is: "Pei Du plays the prime minister's right to recruit and extend the talents and staff officers of the Quartet, please meet the guests in private".

Question 3: "The Northern Song Dynasty knotted Jin to draw Yan Zhao, and the Southern Song Dynasty assisted Yuan to attack Cai"

Question 4: "Jia Yi's Five Baits and Three Expressions, Ban Gu ridiculed his negligence. However, Qin Mu tried to use it to dominate Xirong, and the Bank of China also said that it was not invalid.

Question 5: "Zhou and Tang Dynasties are heavy on the outside and light on the inside, and Qin and Wei are light on the outside and heavy on the inside".

……

Sun Dan was happy in his heart, nothing has changed, all the questions have not changed, I have ready-made answers at hand that can be plagiarized, and it doesn't take much effort to get them.

Everything, as I expected.
