In fact, although the general examination is more important than the township examination, the work of the president does not need to be done by himself

As the first leader of the examination room, you only need to make decisions and guide by the side. As for the examination and ranking of papers, it is natural to have the same examiner and vice president to handle it.

If there is no big problem, the president will write a sentence on the paper and it will be passed.

Of course, when encountering a serious examiner, there is no way to read the papers one by one.

"The rankings have been topped down, how is the volume of this issue doing?" Who is not in the middle, Li Chunfang, the big president, doesn't care. He only cares about whether this subject can produce a few good papers, which can be circulated in Shilin, and be included in the collection in front of the model text as a reference material for readers.

In this way, even if he, the chief examiner, has a complete merit, he will use up his face.

The questions for this exam are so simple that almost anyone can do it. Just because the topic of such a bad street is really easy, but it is the most difficult to write brilliantly, but once there is a good article, it will inevitably become famous.

For the paper that was admitted this time, Li Chunfang suddenly had some expectations.

"There are a few good papers, and two of them are excellent." The vice president smiled and sent the top three rolls over, "The big president can take a look." ”

The scroll is a vermilion scroll, and it was previously transcribed by a transcriptionist with cinnabar in advance, and it is impossible to tell whose scroll it was.

Behind the answer sheet is the judgment of the house master, and these three papers have been highly praised.

Li Chunfang scooped up the three volumes and looked at them, he was born in reading moral articles, and he didn't like poetry too much, so he didn't pay attention to the test poem on the last question, and only quickly skimmed the four and eight strands of the three of them

I didn't feel like I shouted: "Okay, it's all good." Although these four questions are common and have been poorly written, they are very difficult to write because of this. Write something new, but not extreme; Words must be original, but not too cold or too remote. The degree of this is not easy to grasp. When I read these three articles, they didn't deliberately focus on the same cliché as the word novelty, but they were written in a meticulous way, and they read smoothly and neatly. Okay, well, this department is really a good talent. ”

After speaking, he picked up the pen again and wrote a line of beautiful words after the judgment of the master at the end of the article: "These three volumes have been taken and directly put into the main list." ”

The vice president had been sitting beside Li Chunfang, and naturally saw the judgment given by Master Li. Seeing that his evaluation was so high, he smiled and said, "My lord, why don't you name these three scrolls." ”

Li Chunfang woke up to the fact that after the exam, it was only a few days before the palace exam, which belonged to two consecutive exams. As long as the students can be qualified to participate in the palace examination, the ranking does not matter. The eighty-one tribute students on this list can scoop up the fame of fellow scholars even if they do poorly in the palace examination room, and at least they are also a court official of the seventh grade.

As for the ranking of the entrance examination, it is only a reference, and it cannot be used to determine who will enter the Hanlin Academy in the future and who will be able to become a kujishi.

Because of this, Li Chunfang forgot about this stubble.

After the reminder of the deputy examiner, he glanced at each of the three papers, and hesitated again. The articles on these three volumes are all equally excellent, and there is really no way to distinguish between high and low.

In the middle of his hesitation, the deputy examiner said: "Master Li, these three papers really have to be carefully considered, and it is very important to choose who to choose or not. ”

As soon as he said this, Li Chunfang's face changed, and he shouted: "What are you talking about, who to choose or not to choose, but based on the quality of the article, is there still someone in this volume who has joints and wants you to take care of it?" ”

This is a very serious statement, and it can be said to be harsh.

This crime is not small, if it is true, Li Chunfang will immediately let this vice president be scooped down. …,

The vice president was not afraid, and laughed quietly, and the other eighteen room examiners also smiled at the same time, as if they had a tacit understanding.

This incident made Li Chunfang confused: "What's the matter, do you have something to hide from the official?" ”

"The big president is in a hurry, wait for the next official to say it slowly." The deputy chief examiner asked with a smile: "My lord has probably already read the roster of Shizimen, and many of them are famous scholars. Who can be hit and who can't, I guess I guessed. ”

Li Chunfang nodded: "The official has seen the roster, but there are many virtuous and talented people among them. Whether you are successful or not, you must first see how well the candidate's essay is done, and you also have to see which list he is placed on. ”

"Yes, all things considered, who can win and who can't, you can guess two or three percent. I waited for a while to think about it, and there are two people who have the highest chance of making the list. ”

Li Chunfang: "This official understands who you are talking about, a naturally Wu Jie, a candidate from Shuntianfu, and this person's reputation is as good as the sky." In the past, I have also seen the papers of the foreign exam, and they are indeed exquisitely made. With his level, even if he can't get a jinshi, it shouldn't be difficult to be a fellow jinshi. The other one is Shen Shixing, this

The people of Changzhou are so bad that they can't rank first among the Liangjiang scholars, and they shouldn't be able to get in. ”

He was puzzled in his heart and asked: "What you said just now is not clear, what does it matter who you choose first?" ”

By this point, the anger in his heart had calmed down, and he knew that the examiners were not in contact with the candidates.

The vice president said: "It is best to take Wu Jie as the Huiyuan of Jinke." ”

Li Chunfang: "Why is this, besides, who knows which part of Wu Jie's scroll is, it depends on the will of God." ”

The vice president said: "Wu Jie is very famous, and he is a generation of grandmasters in the literary world, if he is the first in high school, we and other examiners will also have a bright face."

Xia Guan had checked the news of Wu Jie before, and this investigation didn't matter, but it scared one. ”

"Go on." Li Chunfang came to be interested.

Vice President: "Wu Jie didn't go to the school for a day when he was in Nanjing, and it is estimated that he studied with his father for a few years. After returning to Chengdu last year, he participated in the imperial examination for the first time. I took the test in one go, and the boys got the first place in the county, government, and hospital in the middle of the exam. ”

As he spoke, the vice president praised again and again: "When I went to the township test, I scooped up the first name Xie Yuan." If he can get the first place again in Huishi, when he enters the temple test, he will scoop up the champion. The great consummation of the big and small three elements is not a good story. As he spoke, he looked excited: "If this is the case, our examiner here also has a light on his face." ”

Everyone also nodded.

Li Chunfang said with a smile: "Which part of Wu Jie's volume is, and whether it has even been selected into the main list, is still unknown, what do you say you are doing?" ”

"Not really." A fellow examiner stood up with a smile and walked to the front of the desk to give a salute: "Xiaguan, you can be sure that Wu Jie and Shen Shixing's papers are among these three." ”

The papers for the third exam have been sent, and Wu Jie took a look at it, and there are all model texts to copy.

This time it will be easy to come.

He didn't know what was going on in the lobby of the exam room at the moment.
