Historically, there has never been a good result in handing in a blank paper, no matter what era it is.

Zhou Yi didn't think that he would meet an old gentleman who thought that handing in a blank paper was a commendable courage and then admitted him exceptionally.

But he is also a person who can see openly, since the thing has happened, then no matter how much he thinks about it, he can't change the facts, so he just let it go, and he doesn't believe it, the dignified talents of the 21st century can still suffocate the imperial examination to death in the 11th century?

Although he said that, he was still a little disappointed in his heart, just like they said that life without entering the college entrance examination room is an incomplete life, Zhou Yi feels that if he is not admitted to a good university, it is an incomplete life.

Fortunately, Zhou Yi's interests and hobbies are relatively extensive, and the attraction of the imperial examination to him is not very strong, for example, he is more concerned about the things he promised to improve the production speed of mahjong for Mr. Liu before.

Before, Zhou Yi thought about inventing a planer to shock Mr. Liu, but it turned out that people had already used this kind of thing, which made him very frustrated.

After thinking about it, he couldn't think of any good way to solve this problem, which made him even more frustrated. In the end, I have to give up, so let's wait until I think about it later.

Life without goals is boring, and having ideas but not being able to achieve them is even more depressing, because Zhou Yi no longer reads, and the draft of "Water Margin" has been completed and handed over to Zhou Qing, the scale of the Victory Cooperative is no longer allowed to expand, and the next step in expanding may be to be banned, and the government does not allow powerful businessmen to appear, especially this businessman has no power, it is simply a fat sheep to be slaughtered.

Outside the city, on the bank of the Minjiang River, in the evening of early summer, the water is murmuring, and the willows are still around.

Zhou Yi rested his head with his hands on his head, lying on the grass, crossing Erlang's legs, holding the grass roots in his mouth, and looking at the white clouds rolling in the sky.

It's been a year since I came to the Northern Song Dynasty, what have I changed? Is that the chimney on the roof? Or is it a lot of money in your name?

Zhou Yi felt that this was not what he wanted, what he wanted was peace in the world, and he wanted to be treated equally, which seemed to be taken for granted, but this ideal was so difficult to achieve that after a thousand years, it was only a small part of it.

On the other side of the river, there are wooden houses with bark roofs, looking at the clothes they are wearing, Zhou Yi knows that this is an ethnic minority, and their lives are in their own way, which makes Zhou Yi very envious.

When it was time to cook dinner, a girl carrying a bucket and singing a song went to a small river at the foot of the mountain to fill water, and this small river joined the Minjiang River here, and Zhou Yi felt that its length was less than two miles.

The waterwheel turns around, and when the bamboo tube is immersed in the water, it is loaded with some water, and when it is turned into the air, the water pours down, and it can be placed directly in a predetermined position with a bucket, because it is driven by water flow, without manpower, and can almost be regarded as an automatic machine.

A thousand years later, practical utensils in the countryside have appeared as early as the Han and Tang dynasties, such as waterwheels, such as plows, and even for thousands of years, and the shape does not need to be improved.

In fact, the time between the government examination and the palace examination was not long, so the question that Zhou Yi was worried about was quickly answered.

The government examination is presided over by the Ministry of Rites, and each government road sends officials from the Ministry of Rites down, as little as one or two people, and as many as four or five people, who are both invigilators and paper correctors, and everything is done locally.

After the exam, the test paper will be sealed, which is called a fussimile, so the reviser does not know who the candidate is, and it is bound to be unable to show favoritism, and even worse, it will have to be cross-checked, which reduces the chance of fraud and misjudgment. For those who pass the examination, there will be several government teams holding plaques with the inscription of those who have passed the examination, that is, lifting people, starting from Chengdu and dividing into several routes to go to the homes of those who have passed the examination to congratulate them, which is called the release of the list.

In fact, the team that released the list has not yet entered the city, and everyone has already gotten the news, after all, it is not so simple to raise people in the examination, if a county can produce a person in every imperial examination, it is definitely an existence in the history of the imperial examination. This year, Qingshen County actually raised people, which is naturally eye-catching.

There is a person in front of the team that released the list, wearing a red and black official uniform, holding a sign with both hands, and the word "list" is on the book. Then the two of them carried a gong, and it sounded in ten steps, which was customized. Behind them, the three people with the list walked side by side.

Outside the city, the people have put down their work, with the sound of gongs and drums to the door to see, since the opening of the imperial examination, for the official is no longer the patent of the rich, poor students ten years of hard study, after the list of people who enter the house, there is no shortage of people, the so-called cold window ten years no one asks, once famous the world knows yes. Among these poor people, there are naturally also those who participate in the imperial examination.

But how can the imperial examination be so easy? As the team entered the city, a look of disappointment began to appear on their faces, as it meant that the lifter was not outside the city.

The people outside were disappointed, but the students in the city were happy, and everyone speculated, who was this example? Is it Zhou Yi, who has been shining recently, or the knowledgeable Mr. Kong, or Zhang Zhong and Huang Yao......

Hearing that someone from outside was on the list, Zhou Min pulled Zhou Yi and walked outside, in her mind, this brother who changed his mind was omnipotent, and he was naturally a lifter.

Zhou Yi can only smile bitterly, if he can be lifted in the white papers, how can those students who are full of poetry and books be embarrassed?

But it was not good to arouse my sister's interest, so I had to be dragged out of the door and waited on the road.

After a while, Zhou Yi saw Zhang Zhong and other acquaintances, and everyone stretched their necks and waited to see which way those people were going.

Being noticed has long been commonplace for these officials, so it is naturally not strange to see it, only follow the place, and I don't know when there is a leader in front of me, leading these people to the road.

After a family, there are students, the eyes dimmed, and then shook his head and sighed, it seemed that he was busy again, so he lost interest, turned back to the house, or drank alcohol, or turned grief into strength, and so on.

Seeing that the team was getting closer and closer to him, Zhou Yi's eyes slowly widened, but Zhou Min was so happy that he screamed and jumped, as if he was still a four or five-year-old child.

"Haha, here, here, I'll just say, my brother must be the most powerful, our Zhou family is going to make a move."

Everyone looked sideways, Zhou Yi couldn't help but blush, bowed his head slightly, if people knew that he handed in a blank paper, I don't know how these people would feel.

But the fact is that these people really walked to the door of Zhou Yi's house and stopped.

The crowd of onlookers erupted in cheers and cheers, Zhou Yi's knowledge has long been famous in Qingshen County, and everyone thinks that he deserves to be regarded as a person who has won this place.

Zhou Yi's eyes widened, his mouth opened slightly, and the whole person seemed to have been released by the Monkey King, and he couldn't move.

What he thought in his heart was, is it really popular to play the non-mainstream game of lifting people in the white paper these days?

But facts are facts, and this team stopped outside the gate of the Zhou family!

Zhou Min pushed Zhou Yi and said angrily: "Brother is in a daze at this time, you are all lifted, hurry up and say hello." ”

Looking back at her, Zhou Yi thoughtfully walked in front of the team, waved slightly, and said hello: "Hi ......"

“……”

The two sides of the sign and the gong were automatically separated, and the one among the three people below came out, and when he saw Zhou Yi's talent, he nodded slightly, and said, "You are Zhou Yi and Zhou Hengzhi?" ”

"Exactly." Zhou Yi asked Zhou Min to take his name card to show everyone, and then hugged his fists and bowed: "Student Zhou Yi greets all adults, please take a seat in the cold house." ”

The man smiled: "Don't worry, let's go through the procedure first, and we won't have to disturb for a while." ”

He unfolded a list and began to read: "Now there is a county of Qingshen, blessed by the emperor, for the Great Song Dynasty, the heavens descended talents, Zhou Shiyi, Hengzhi, full of economic wealth, live up to expectations, raise people to high school, special release of this list, encourage Hezhi, hope to make persistent efforts, bravely climb the peak, live up to high expectations......"

After reading the long article, Zhou Yi had a sense of immediacy in the face of the eunuch's order. The official read the list and handed it to Zhou Yi, and the thing stamped with the seal of the Ministry of Rites seemed to Zhou Yi to be similar to the admission notice.

The people around erupted in cheers, and someone took out firecrackers to set off, Zhou Sheng was naturally so happy that he was so happy that he sent someone to buy a large pile of firecrackers and piled them up outside the door, and kept putting them off.

Today is not only Zhou Yi's festival, but also Qingshen County's festival, and the identity of the entire county seems to have been raised by a few points.

Everyone gave them money for their travels, and a sumptuous meal, and then they were sent away in a carriage, and they were all happy.

In the evening, Zhou Yi received six invitations, which made Zhou Min very excited. In addition, she has been reading a lot recently, so she opened a copy and read it:

"The little girl will return on the 10th of this month, and she will be warmly scheduled to wait for her at 5 p.m. on the same day. Set up the crane tower, do not mind. Zhou Youcai's first ......"

"What do you mean?" After reading it, Zhou Min asked puzzledly, "What's wrong with the daughter of the rich man Zhou?" ”

"It's what it means to marry a daughter." Zhou Yi explained.

"Isn't ten days tomorrow?" Zhou Min flashed his big eyes and said, "Why are you only inviting my brother now?" ”

"This is an impromptu invitation." Zhou Yi smiled: "Who made your brother lifted?" ”

"I see, it's really a snob!" Zhou Min pursed his lips and opened the next one: "Where is 'Little Qinhuai'?" When their daughters leave the cabinet, why do they still have to invite guests to eat and drink. ”

"......" Zhou Yiden was speechless. Although Xiao Qinhuai has not passed, the Qinhuai River in the Ming Dynasty is very famous, so it is inferred that it is one of the best kilns in the county......

"Ahem," Zhou Yi snatched the invitation and scolded in a ball: "What a child looks at blindly, he needs to have a needle's eye." ”
