In this exam, most of the scholars were beaming, and those who were well prepared naturally did well in the exam, even if they were not fully prepared, but they spent two taels of silver to buy the cheats, and they were also handy in the exam, and Yang Yun's cheats did bet on the four Ming scripture questions, which made many scholars who bought his cheats feel that it was worth the money. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yang Yun stood at the gate of the Confucian Temple, looking at every candidate who bought the test questions from him like a teaching, and his smiling eyes clearly said, "I didn't lie to you!" Two taels of silver are not lost. ’

Li Yanqing really couldn't help but want to slap him twice, it was useless to bet on all ten questions, and the countermeasures were the key to eliminating candidates.

As for the countermeasures, most of the candidates were talking triumphantly about how their families effectively kept the grain, and there had never been a phenomenon of grain spoilage and mildew.

So when Qin Liang excitedly talked to Wang Gui about his thirteen methods of mildew prevention, Li Yanqing glanced at him a little sadly, and actually wrote thirteen ways to prevent mildew, this is the life of a warehouse keeper!

The entrance examination is to be an official, not for you to be a warehouse keeper.

"Lao Li, how did you answer the countermeasures?" Zhang Xian asked cautiously.

Li Yanqing didn't dare to hit Qin Liang's confidence, and said vaguely: "I wrote two anti-mildew measures, ventilation and drying. ”

Wang Gui slapped the table, "Lao Li, you're finished, there are at least ten kinds of anti-mildew measures in my granary, and you actually only wrote two, forget it, let's go to the martial arts test with my brothers!" ”

Zhang Xian said in a low voice: "Actually, I didn't write a single method. ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, Qin Liang was even more stunned, and stammered and asked, "Then you... What was written? ”

"I... I mainly write about the patrol system, why not detect grain mold early, it must be mismanagement, so we must establish a set of measures to prevent grain mold. ”

Li Yanqing nodded, "I also wrote about the prevention system." ”

Qin Liang slapped his head and shouted, "I'm completely finished this time!" ”

Everyone was silent for a long time, Wang Gui patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Then you go to study in the state!" The state school will definitely not test how to manage the granary. ”

Qin Liang was about to cry, "I'm really finished this time, I can't explain to my father when I go back." ”

Yue Fei said lightly: "In the end, only fifteen people were admitted, I think most of the candidates should not be able to explain to their father!" ”

"Brother Liang, don't cry, I don't think you will be on the list." Li Yanqing smiled.

Qin Liang wiped away his tears and asked, "Why?" ”

"Because today I heard everyone talk about how to prevent grain from rotting, it can be seen that most of them have written off topic, and you have written thirteen ways to prevent mildew, do any of these methods mention institutional mildew prevention methods?"

Qin Liang thought for a while, "It seems that there is, the eighth method, I wrote about the importance of inspecting the granary in time to prevent poor storage." ”

"That's right, you also wrote about the system, although it's not so clear, but at least it's also touched, if you have all the right questions in front of you, word for word, and the calligraphy is good, then I think there should be your name among a hundred people."

Li Yanqing's words finally gave Qin Liang a hint of luck, and he began to think that maybe he really had hope of being on the list.

At this time, Li Yanqing got up and said with a smile: "You guys continue to talk!" I went back to my room to review. ”

Wang Gui hurriedly grabbed him, "Lao Li, after the exam today, you should relax and relax, I invite you to go to Qingfu Building to drink deer blood to celebrate." ”

"Celebrate your size!"

Li Yanqing slapped his hand away, and said angrily: "This year, I want to add poems and criminal laws, and that "Song Criminal Law" is thicker than two bricks stacked together, I haven't even read a word!" And cases, and still writing poems, where is there time to drink? ”

Wang Gui smiled and said, "What if you fail in today's exam, won't it be in vain to review the criminal law now?" ”

Li Yanqing pinched his neck tightly with hatred, "When will your dog's mouth spit out ivory?" ”

．．．．．．

After the exam, all the test papers were immediately sealed, and they were sent to Anyang Gongyuan for scoring on the same day, and the scoring was required to be completed in three days, and then the admission list was sent back to Tangyin County overnight, and the list was released the next day.

In the early morning of that day, when Li Yanqing was hiding in the house and reciting "Song Xingtong" in the dark, a burst of footsteps rushed wildly.

I only heard Wang Gui shouting excitedly in the courtyard: "Lao Li, good news!" ”

"The discussion said: Zhou's relatives respect the grandparents, the same is true of the great-great-great-parents, uncles' parents, aunts and sisters, husband's parents, and concubines are female monarchs, and such funerals must be raised; If you hide and do not mourn, you will be in prison for one year, and the mourning system will not end, it is said that you have not exceeded the week and month, and those who are relieved and obey the auspicious person will be given a rod... How many rods are there? ”

Li Yanqing was carrying it properly, but was interrupted by Wang Gui's throat, and he forgot all the content behind it, he slapped the table angrily, "Good news for your size!" Can you please not interfere with my endorsement. ”

"It's good news, congratulations to Lao Li County for being at the top of the list!"

Li Yanqing pursed his lips, flipped through the article just now, and suddenly remembered, "By the way, a hundred rods, the following is.... Great merit and respect, hide and mourn, staff ninety; Before the ninth month of the release of obedience, the rod is eighty. ”

Wang Gui blinked his eyes, leaned over and stared at Li Yanqing, "You don't believe me?" ”

Li Yanqing knocked on him, "If the list is released, Zhang Xianzi will ask me to look at the list, and it is not your turn to report the good news first." ”

Wang Gui scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly: "I originally wanted to coax you to be happy, but you weren't fooled, Xian Boy and Liang Boy went to wait for the list early in the morning, so you shouldn't take it seriously." ”

At this time, Yue Fei also walked in and said with a smile: "It's not that Lao Li doesn't take it seriously, it's really too much pressure, you look at Brother Xian'er again, everyone is about to become a bookworm, and there are still fifty-five days to solve the state exam, let's spare him first!" ”

"But I don't think there is any pressure on other students! It's time to eat, it's time to drink, and a few are discussing going to Yichun Courtyard to celebrate! ”

Tang Huai walked in with a fan and said, "That's because they don't want to take the exam at all, they just want to go to the state to study, and shouting all day long about the exam is just pretending to be face." ”

Li Yanqing remembered an important matter, and hurriedly asked: "I almost forgot, how did you decide, go to study state martial arts, or directly participate in the martial arts exam?" ”

Yue Fei showed a wry smile on his face, "The master has already asked for us, next year's martial arts will also have Enke, and there will be an additional martial arts examination in late January next year, if we don't take the test this time, we will have to wait for the year after tomorrow, so we decided to directly participate in the martial arts examination early next year and give up the state martial arts exam in November." ”

Li Yanqing was a little regretful, then they couldn't go to Anyang together, he thought about it and asked, "What is the content of the martial arts test?" ”

"Like our civilian reference, we have to test foot archery, mounted archery, weightlifting and weapons, and we also have to test the "Art of War", as long as you are familiar with it, you don't need to use it."

Li Yanqing calculated the time, in fact, their time was also very tight, the three of them had not yet passed the level of riding and shooting, and the spears were still rusty, and they had to memorize Sun Tzu's Art of War.

"You also have to hurry up and strive to pass the martial arts test next year."

"Yes! I've already memorized "The Art of War" by heart, and these two guys haven't read it yet, so it's useless to worry about them. Yue Fei glanced at Wang Gui and Tang Huai.

"Who said I'm not in a hurry!"

Wang Gui was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and he jumped up all of a sudden, "I'll go to the bookstore now to buy a copy of "The Art of War" and come back to read it." ”

Li Yanqing laughed, worthy of Wang Gui, when he was in a hurry, he was in a hurry to die, and when he was dragging a patient, at this moment, Zhang Xian's anxious shout suddenly came from the courtyard, "Lao Li, hurry up, the list will be released immediately." ”

．．．．．．．

The list is still at the gate of the Confucian Temple, at this time, the news that the state government admission list has arrived at the county government has spread throughout the county, in addition to the county students, there are thousands of good people who came to see the list, the square in front of the gate is crowded, although this is only the list of reference qualifications for the examination, but it is also the admission list of the examination, and the importance is not trivial.

The list is the same as the official imperial examination list, divided into the first list and the second list, the first list of ten people, the second list of ninety people, the difference is that the official imperial examination list is announced on yellow paper, and the qualification list is announced on white paper, also known as the white list, white paper and black letters, of which the name of the first place in the first list is written in red letters, called the red case or the top of the list.

The admission of the county examination is not only to get the qualification to participate in the release test, but also has other huge benefits, if the ten people on the first list fail to pass the examination, then they can directly enter the state school without the examination, and the ninety people on the second list are directly exempted from the examination to study in the state school.

Other scholars who are not admitted not only have to take the annual county examination according to the old rules, so that they can get the opportunity to go to the state school exam, and even if they are admitted, they can only study in the outer house.

In the final analysis, the reform of the imperial examination was essentially a kind of adjustment of power between the central and local governments, and the imperial court took away the right of the local prefectures to take away the examination under the pretext of poor results in the northern imperial examinations, and the state government was unwilling to be weakened, and took away the right to recommend the imperial examinations of the counties in the name of the county examinations.

Typical big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimp.

In order to increase the gold content of the county examination of the imperial examination, the state government also used the power of the state school in its possession to link the county examination with the state school, and gave the excellent resources of the inner and upper houses of the state school to the county examination.

This correspondingly lowers the status of the county examinations, and passing the county examinations is only a qualification to participate in the state school examinations, and the gold content is far less than that of the imperial examinations.

It is for this reason that the scholars attach great importance to the admission of the county examination, and there are only fifteen places for the lifter, and the vast majority of the scholars who participate in the county examination are actually exempted from the state school examination.

At this time, someone shouted "Here we are!" Here it comes! I saw that the gate of the Confucian Temple opened, and several county officials walked out with two volumes of lists, and the crowd waiting outside suddenly became excited and poured up like a tide.
