Chapter 049: Falling and Rising

Although he has a certain understanding of the history of the Song Dynasty, Li Ang still lacks some details in the system. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Seeing that Li Bai was so sure, he no longer maliciously guessed whether the monarchs and ministers of the Duxing Dynasty were perfunctory to the world's scholars, but instead asked about the precautions for this exam.

Since it is the first nationwide provincial examination, there must be many differences compared with the previous courses.

At this time, the importance of having seniors in the family is highlighted.

Although Li Daguan tried and failed repeatedly, he was able to get solutions five times and went to the province four times, so he had quite a lot of experience. At that moment, I told the two juniors about all the processes and related precautions of the provincial examination from registration to answers.

"In addition, today is the eighth day of the lunar month, and there is only a little more than a month to leave the exam. The Huaixi Transshipment Division is in Luzhou, and it will take four days to go, and it will have to leave seven or eight days in advance. Therefore, from now on, you must prepare the relevant paperwork and the necessary items for the exam, otherwise you will be caught blind at that time. ”

Jiang Zhen showed disbelief: "Uncle, Luzhou is adjacent, why bother seven or eight days in advance?" And then there are things that are used for the exam, so why buy them locally, so why bring them from Shouchun? ”

Li Bai shook his head with a smile: "Don't you understand, right?" This time, all our Huaixi people have to go to Luzhou for reference, in addition to their local ones, there are two or three hundred people, right? Think about it. ”

Jiang Zhen thought about it when he heard this, and immediately said movingly: "Oops! At that time, restaurants and inns will inevitably be full, and stationery utensils and other items will definitely be out of stock! ”

Li Ang also nodded and said, "Yes, I really have to go to the eighteenth day of the first month, I'm afraid I won't even be able to pass the test." ”

Li Bai cocked his feet, crossed his fingers, and continued to click: "There is another case, I have been to Luzhou, and the Gongyuan is only half the size of Shouchun, what does this mean, think about it again?" ”

This sentence made the two small ones change their faces, there are more than 500 examination houses in Shouchun Gongyuan, and Luzhou Gongyuan is only half the size...... Wouldn't someone have to take an open-air exam? Li Ang suddenly remembered the pain of taking the county school exam at the beginning, but the county school only took half a day, and this provincial exam had to be taken for three days in a row!

Li Daguan was very satisfied with the reaction of the two juniors, and looked at them as if he saw the bird-like appearance when he first referred to them. It was still insufficient, and said: "Although this class test is presided over by the criminal department, Luzhou Juzi must be presented before the foreign one, if you go late......"

Jiang Zhen finally couldn't bear it, and said with a bitter face: "Uncle, don't say it, let's set off tomorrow?" ”

Seeing this, Li Bai was also afraid that the two of them would be frightened, so he said, "That's not necessary." In this way, you go back and tell your father that you will set off on the sixth day of the first month, and strive to rush to Luzhou on the tenth day of the first month. In this way, there will be plenty of time to arrange room and board, submit the interpretation documents, and maybe go to the hanging bag Xiaosu by the way. ”

Bao Xiaosu, that is, Bao Zheng, the word Xishi, Luzhou Hefei.

When Jiang Zhen heard this, how could he still stay? Greet him, say hello to Leon, turn around and leave.

"Where is Erlang? I'm making hot soup cakes in the pot, you can eat them before leaving. ”

"Aunt Xie gives me food, and my nephew still has important matters, so I'll come back another day to bother."

Meng Shi stood outside the door and wiped his hands, and asked casually, "What do you three masters say about yourself?" Why did Jiang Erlang leave in such a hurry? ”

Li Bai sighed and looked at his son, relieved and sentimental: "The children are also going to the examination room......

For several days after that, this person who had never bothered about anything was running for his son's reference procedures.

The first is the guarantee, which is different from the family of the county school, to participate in the formal imperial examination, you need to "protect the Shiwu", to put it simply, it is the neighbors of your household registration, and they will guarantee that the person who takes the exam is not among the "seven prohibitions", and everyone sits together if there is a problem.

The second is the solution, that is, the official certificate that the examiner has passed the test or is exempted from the test.

The third is the family status, that is, personal information, in addition to filling in the name, age, and place of origin, it is also necessary to indicate whether they are married, whether their parents are still alive, the number of times they have participated in scientific examinations, and the official situation from great-grandfather to father.

At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, it was stipulated that if an official was to be locked in the hall for the examination, he must first be named by the subordinate prefect and obtained the emperor's permission before he could be dismissed. However, Li Ang not only has an official, but also has been dismissed at the same time, so he does not have to go through this process. If someone has to be more difficult, just show the edict of Zhao Guan's reward.

After the formalities are complete, you have to prepare clothes, stationery, medicines, bedding, and even charcoal...... There are no less than dozens of things, and Li Bai is afraid that these things will be priceless after arriving in Luzhou, so he and the Meng family have all the brains, and their son is not allowed to interfere in the slightest.

Li Ang used this time to make a final assault, of course, at this time, it was no longer meaningful to study hard behind closed doors, mainly to communicate with teachers and classmates.

The new prefect Luo Xing, in order to show his attention, also organized several literary meetings, and invited well-educated people in the territory and seniors in the field to come out to give advice to the rookies.

After reading Li Ang's article, a privy councillor of Zhishi commented that even if he passed the province, he would not have a good rank and ranking, at best, he would be a fellow jinshi of the fourth or fifth class, and it was recommended to hone it for a few more years.

It wasn't until the day of the Spring Festival that Li Ang covered the scroll, solemnly worshiped his ancestors with Li Bai, and officially told his ancestors that he was about to take the exam, begging for the blessing of his ancestors.

It can be seen that while Li Daguan has high hopes for his son, he is also really worried that it will be difficult for him to get good results this rashly. On Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Ang was pulled up by his father when he slept in a daze, and let him go to Dongchan Temple to grab the incense burner, and strive to step on ****, hit the big luck, and pass the provincial test by luck.

As for being able to rank first after passing the province, Li Bai didn't dare to hope at all.

When the sleepy-eyed Li Xinchen appeared in front of the main hall of Dongchan Temple, he once again had a sense of time and space disorder, this is really the Song Dynasty?

Look at the people of the three religions and the nine streams, regardless of the noble and the low, carrying high incense and lining up in a long line, even if they are so cold that they stomp their feet and have a runny nose, they do not flinch at all. What is the difference between this situation and 900 years later?

Finally, the time came to the second year of the Great Song Dynasty Jianyan, the sixth day of the first month.

Early in the morning, Meng and Yang checked their outfits again and again, for fear of missing them, especially the burden of putting money, and they changed three places in a row to feel a little at ease.

When Li Ang got up, she searched her intestines and scraped her stomach to pick up auspicious words. For example, when washing your face on your back, you should say "look up and see joy", and when you lift the curtain and pass through the house, you should say "raise your hand to save it".

But after all, she didn't understand literature and ink, Li Ang dropped her chopsticks while eating, she was nervous, and she was stunned to say that the sentence "and the first hope" was "landing sound".

Li Bai was so angry that he had to open his hair, it was miserable enough to fall first, and he still had to make a sound? Are you a mother?

Li Ang hurriedly persuaded him, saying that it was not "sound", but "rising", which means that even if he falls down, there is still a time to rise.

Li Bai stopped a little, but he didn't allow the Hun family to speak anymore.

As soon as the meal was over, the Jiang family arrived, talked again, and the rented car arrived at the door on time.
