From the third year of the Apocalypse, a rumor began to circulate in the Ming Dynasty, saying that because of the chaos of the people, the border was in an emergency, and the imperial court began to attach importance to military generals. The evidence is that in the Wenju palace test, the emperor gave a feast of three dishes and one soup, and a few white-flour steamed buns, while in the Wuju palace test, the emperor gave a feast of four dishes and one soup, and the rice was enough. And this soup, Wenju's soup is green vegetable and egg drop soup, and Wuju's soup is Xiangru stewed chicken soup.

In fact, this is a misunderstanding, someone in the all-reason science field is the heart and soul of the Emperor of the Apocalypse and Wei Zhongxian, and secretly ordered the imperial dining room to improve the quality of the food. However, Zhu Youcheng felt that the rumors were beneficial and harmless, so he did not send someone to clarify them. A healthy dynasty should be one that attaches equal importance to civil and military affairs, and is strong on the outside and benevolent on the inside.

Zhu Youcheng's table is usually eight dishes and two soups, but no one dares to come over to fight the autumn breeze, because first, they don't think their heads are much harder than clay pots, and second, there is a young man in a python robe sitting next to Zhu Youcheng's table, which seems to be very difficult to mess with.

King Xin climbed over the guardrail to enter, and the guards guarding the examination room just wanted to inquire, but they were stopped by Wei Zhongxian. He is Zhu Youcheng's friend and the younger brother of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, not to mention climbing over the guardrail, even if he pokes a hole in the sky, Wei Zhongxian will be responsible for filling the hole.

Spectators are not blessed to enjoy the Emperor's feast, but they can come and go freely with their tickets. Some spectators took advantage of the short intermission to go out and eat some food; Some spectators came in with dried steamed buns or cakes, swallowed cold boiled water, and continued to wait for the next game to begin.

Because Wei Zhongxian wanted to end the game in one day, he only rested for half an hour at noon and started the game again.

Zhu Youcheng took a look at the results of the competition, and so far, his degree is the fastest. The slowest passage took almost three quarters of an hour; If you are a little faster, you should be a lot slower than yourself. It seems that the champion has basically arrived, it is really a point of hard work and a point of harvest.

Idle, Zhu Youcheng calculated the time of the competition, if each candidate has the same degree as himself, and there are 1o sets of exam tools in the examination room, then he can only complete the exam up to 8o times per hour. There are 6oo candidates on site, and it takes seven or eight hours to complete the test, and there is still a little time to announce the rankings. Moreover, Wuju is different from Wenju in that Wuju is outdoors and lighting is very difficult. In other words, no matter how fast you hurry, you can't end the game in one day.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youcheng hurriedly found Wei Zhongxian and reported the results of his calculations to Gonggong Wei.

Wei Zhongxian was also a little uneasy in his heart, because it was only the turn of the candidates who ranked more than a hundred now, and it seemed that it was a little difficult to end the palace examination in one day. However, he does not calculate, but only judges empirically. The education of the Ming Dynasty is mainly based on literary education, and numeracy ability is not regarded as the educational goal.

Hearing Zhu Youcheng's calculation results, Wei Zhongxian's face changed, this time it was a big trouble, and he had to ask the Emperor of the Apocalypse for instructions. Afraid that he couldn't say it clearly, he took Zhu Youcheng to meet the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't realize the timing at all, and he watched the game with obsession, wishing that the game would go on forever.

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's report, Emperor Tianqi's face was also gloomy, the imperial examination was related to the fortune of the country, and he was on a business trip.

Wei Zhongxian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse was also restless, only Zhu Youcheng was nothing.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse couldn't help asking, "Brother Cheng, something so big happened, why aren't you in a hurry at all?" ”

"What's there to worry about, the sky is falling, and there is a high top."

The Emperor of the Apocalypse knew that this matter had nothing to do with Zhu Youcheng, but he knew that he could make good decisions, so he picked him up, put him on the stool, and said, "Okay, now that you are the highest, you can hold it." ”

Zhu Youcheng's weight is only eighty pounds, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse likes to be a carpenter, and his strength is extremely great, so there is no pressure at all to pick up Zhu Youcheng.

Wei Zhongxian also scolded with a smile: "You little monkey cub, it's not worrying at all. Seeing that we are all sweating, you don't help us solve our problems, but talk coolly. ”

"I really don't understand what you're having a headache, since one day can't be compared, it's divided into two days, and if two days can't be compared, it's three days. Such a simple truth, even I, a child, understand. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse frowned and said, "The palace test is only better than one day, how can it be compared to two or three days?" ”

Zhu Youcheng jumped down from the stool and said: "The "Da Ming Law" does not stipulate the number of days for the palace test, the emperor has Tianxian in his mouth, and the exit is the golden rule, saying that the palace test is a few days, who dares to say anything?" The document is held once every three years, and the time of the palace examination is inconvenient to change; However, the martial arts have not been held for many years, and it is difficult for anyone to make irresponsible remarks at any time. Fortunately, the emperor did not publicly say that the palace test would end within a day, and it would be okay to ask Gonggong Wei to announce that the competition would be held in a few days. ”

Zhu Youcheng's words were like piercing a layer of window paper, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse suddenly realized, nodded and said, "It makes sense." It seems that the next time I want to ask you a question, I must put you on the stool, otherwise I will be tall and short, tell you, Quan Daming will count you as the tallest. ”

Wei Zhongxian said: "What about the audience? ”

"That's up to you. If it's not bad for money, let them watch it for a few more days, and if they still want to make money, they can sell tickets again, anyway, I see that it's hard to find a ticket outside the venue, and it doesn't matter if you sell tickets again. ”

Wei Zhongxian salivated and asked: "Of course, the more money in the inner treasury, the better, and the emperor has money to do things." ”

Zhu Youcheng said it casually, but when he heard Wei Zhongxian's words, he thought for a while, perfected the details, and then said: "I have seen so many candidates, and three days is more abundant. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse nodded, and Zhu Youcheng continued: "The ticket price remains the same, but the audience in the examination room can't go out to buy tickets, which is a bit unfair to them, so I have to give them a little discount." I built yì to sell tickets in the venue first, and if the audience wanted to continue to watch the second game, they would spend another two taels of silver; If you want to watch the second and third games, add one or two on the basis of two or two. As for the tickets, it is easy to do, go to the children's theater quickly, where the bills are often printed, and they are all veterans, and there is no problem in printing four or five thousand tickets in an hour. But you have to take the king with you, for they will not listen to anyone but me and the king. ”

Wei Zhongxian adopted Zhu Youcheng's Jianyi and asked Li Yongzhen to take King Xin to the Children's Theater to print tickets. King Xin originally did not agree to leave the school, but after Zhu Youcheng told him the truth, he reluctantly left.

The afternoon game was still exciting, and the sudden situation in the field made the audience laugh from time to time.

When it came to the Shen and Youyou fair, the 215th candidate finally completed the whole process, Wei Zhongxian said: "The Wudian test is divided into three days, and today's exam is over, and the candidates are leaving. Candidates who have not completed the exam will recharge their energy and fight again tomorrow. Audience, please wait, there is something important to announce. ”

More than ten Han generals repeated Wei Zhongxian's words loudly, and the audience could hear them clearly.

Wei Zhongxian announced the ticketing arrangements for the game and announced that tickets would be sold on the spot. However, Wei Zhongxian is old in government affairs after all, so he asked the audience who didn't want to buy tickets to leave the venue first, while the audience who wanted to continue watching the game stayed to buy tickets, so that the number of people was reduced and it was easier to control the situation.

Hearing General Dahan's words, half of the audience withdrew, some of them were satisfied after watching the show, some of them had important things to do tomorrow, and some of them didn't bring money to go out.

Because the Ming Dynasty now stipulates that loose silver cannot be circulated, and only copper plates, silver dollars or gold coins can be used, which is easy to point and calculate, so the ticket sales business is carried out very smoothly.

After dealing with the ticket purchase problem of the audience in the venue, Li Yongzhen took the remaining tickets to the off-site sales, which made the enthusiastic crowd who stayed outside cheer.

Listening to the cheers of the audience outside the venue, Zhu Youcheng's heart moved, and he whispered to Wei Zhongxian: "Grandpa, whose is this East School Field?" ”

"What do you want to do with the Shenshu Battalion of the three major camps?"

"Grandpa might as well buy it, open it to the people after the exam, and collect tickets, which is a lot of income."

"The goal is too big, and I still don't want to be greedy for this money. However, I can report to the emperor as a regular source of income for the inner treasury. ”

"Well, Cheng'er also found a way to make money for her grandfather. After the exam, I will find a time to discuss it with my grandfather. ”

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

The three-day competition passed in a blink of an eye, and soon it was time to decide the results.

However, Daming is really fierce everywhere, although Zhu Youcheng retained the champion position, but it was a narrow victory. A Guangdong candidate missed the championship with a one-minute gap and won the leaderboard. Wu Xiang was unlucky, only won the twenty-fourth place and squeezed into the second place.

Those who had fear of heights were not dethroned, they were placed in the third class, and they were given the birth of a fellow jinshi.

Wei Zhongxian was afraid that Wu Jinshi would say that he valued literature over martial arts, so he had already set up a simple golden hall in the school field, and painted giant turtles and other divine beasts on the ground.

Zhu Youcheng stood alone on the head of the giant ao, looking forward to himself, but he didn't expect that there was trouble waiting for him behind.
