Chapter V: Imperial Examinations
There seems to be a lot of snow in the Water Moon Continent, and Ye Chen has been here for nearly twenty days, and he has been hunting next to the stream halfway up the mountain every day in the past few days.
"Money shopkeeper, I'm here, there are only five today, I won't go tomorrow, and now those pheasants and hares rarely go there." Ye Chen came to the money shopkeeper again.
"It's okay, I won't weigh it today, I'll give you three taels of silver, and I'll continue to send it over in the future." The money shopkeeper looked at the prey handed over by Ye Tian and said generously. There is no shortage of rich people in Hexian County, and the wild meat that Ye Tian has sent him every day in the past few days has also made him earn a lot, so he doesn't particularly care about that little money, and the money shopkeeper also hopes that Ye Chen will continue to take care of him if he has a business in the future.
Ye Chen nodded and thanked the shopkeeper, Ye Chen had earned nearly fifty taels of silver through hunting in the past few days. Excluding the daily expenses and the miscellaneous things he bought in the past few days, there are still forty taels left, which is about 4,000 yuan equivalent to his original world, although it is not too much, but it also solves the urgent need, at least in the near future, there is no need to worry about eating.
Now Ye Chen's body is obviously much better than when he just crossed over, although he is still very thin, but the whole person is full of energy. Ye Chen is confident that he can easily defeat them even in the face of a few strong men, this is not blind confidence, but an understanding and affirmation of his own strength.
"Qian'er, you just listen to your aunt's words, marry the eldest young master of the Fang family, the Fang family is one of the best big families in our county, it is said that they are a branch of the Fang family in the capital, if you marry Young Master Fang, then you will eat and drink spicy food every day in the future, and no one will dare to bully it, it is better than following the useless Ye Chen who can't even eat a full mouth."
"Aunt Zhang, don't say it, I won't agree. Brother is not useless, and Qian'er is very happy with his brother. β
As soon as Ye Chen walked to the door, he heard Aunt Zhang next door saying these words to Zhang Qian, wanting Zhang Qian to marry the notorious Young Master Fang. Ye Chen entered the door and said angrily: "Mrs. Zhang, you get out of here for me, don't come here in the future, let me hear you say this kind of thing to Qian'er again, be careful that I can't beat you up." β
Zhang Lan, who was about to speak, didn't expect Ye Chen to come back suddenly, she was really startled, but she was not afraid. She had already told Young Master Fang that as long as she could do a good job in Zhang Qian's ideological work and let Zhang Qian marry him as a concubine in the spring of next year, she would give Zhang Lan two hundred taels of silver as a reward. It was because of this that Zhang Lan began to come to the door to preach to Zhang Qian, but it didn't seem to be ideal.
Zhang Lan looked at Ye Chen, who was glaring at her angrily, and said: "Who did I think, isn't this Ye Chen who can't eat every day, what's wrong with you daring to beat me now that you're growing up, if it weren't for my good heart, you would have starved to death if I often gave Qian'er something." β
After hearing this, Ye Chen said, "I'm giving you a chance, don't force me to do it." β
Seeing Ye Chen's angry face, Zhang Lan couldn't help but be a little stunned, and she didn't dare to continue to take it here, in case Ye Chen really got angry and beat her up.
"Ye Chen, you wait, if you keep stopping me like this, then Young Master Fang will personally send someone over." Zhang Lan didn't forget to threaten before leaving.
After seeing Zhang Lan leave, Ye Chen closed the door, walked to Zhang Qian's side, hugged her in his arms and comforted: "Qian'er is not afraid, with her brother here, they don't dare to do anything." β
"Woo, my brother Aunt Zhang just told me that if I don't agree, Young Master Fang will send someone to beat you to death." Zhang Qian said in Ye Chen's arms, looking at Ye Tian with a worried face.
"Qian'er, they don't dare, if they really dare to come, my brother will beat them all back." Ye Chen touched the little Lori in his arms and comforted. Ye Chen knew that Zhang Qian didn't care about herself, and what Zhang Qian was worried about was that he had an accident.
"It's a pity that my brother didn't study, if my brother took the test, the person surnamed Fang wouldn't dare to threaten my brother like this." Zhang Qian choked up.
Fame? Ye Chen suddenly reacted, he completely ignored this point when he crossed over, at the beginning, college students on his own earth grabbed a lot of them, but this place is different, the readers here are much more valuable than there, and the key readers still control the world, as long as one person receives unfair treatment, there will definitely be countless people to help. So now, no one dares to hurt even a showman.
Ye Chen was pleasantly surprised: "Qian'er, thanks to your reminder, my brother will go out to buy some books first, you can stay at home and don't open the door for others." β
Ye Chen hurriedly ran out, because he suddenly found the memory of the imperial examination of the Water Moon Continent in his mind.
Take the township test first and get the show. Xiucai then took the state government's examination, also known as the Hui Examination, to obtain the qualification to lift people. Raise people to participate in the temple examination and get the jinshi. Since Xiucai, he has been a person of meritorious fame, and he will be registered in the official government, and when he sees an official below the fourth grade, he can not kneel, even if he commits a crime, before he is removed from his fame, he cannot be punished below the state capital, but he cannot be an official. If you raise a person, you can become an official, but it can only be an official below the county order, and those who do not want to be an official can also receive a salary in the government. Jinshi is known as the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, if you want to be an official, the minimum is at the county order level, and if you commit a capital crime, you also need the emperor's personal approval.
The imperial examination in the Water Moon Continent now has a lot less rules and regulations, so as to facilitate the recruitment of talents on a larger scale. The township examination begins in February every year, and is invigilated by officials sent by the state government, and all students can participate in it. The examination starts in September every year. The palace examination began in November, once every three years, and the emperor personally wrote questions in the palace to examine the people who raised people in the examination, and the first ten people who passed the examination were given the name of Jinshi, and the final ten with the best results were interviewed by the emperor. According to the results, it is divided into the "top three", that is, the champion, the list eye and the flower. Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn't help but be overjoyed, he could go to the township exam in February, as long as he got a fame, even if it was just a showman, he was a young master of the Fang family and didn't dare to risk the world's disapproval to marry Zhang Qian.
Ye Chen was not worried about the exam, he had already learned that the current imperial examination was roughly divided into poetry and governing the country. The poems themselves can be borrowed from some great poets, and as for governing the country, it is simpler, as long as you write down the summary that you have read in the book. For the first time, Ye Chen found that his own force could allow him to survive, but his knowledge of being thousands of years ahead of here completely changed the trajectory of his life. Sure enough, like all traversers, this can be regarded as his own golden finger.
Although Ye Chen is not worried about his exam, but now for the sake of insurance, it is better to buy a few so-called exam cheats to take a look, and by the way, take advantage of the recent period of practice calligraphy, there are no pens for him here, all brushes.
