Chapter 14 Township Test Autumn Season
The next morning, although there were still scattered raindrops falling in the sky, it did not affect the hurry.
The dart masters got up early and fed the horses with the bean cakes they had brought with them, and then beckoned Zhou Chen and Lu Xiucai to get up, ready to leave for Taiyuan City after breakfast.
As for the man who was still in a coma, he was placed in the carriage that Zhou Chen was riding.
After all, except for the carriage that Zhou Chen was riding, the other two carriages were already full of goods, and there was no other place to put their feet at all.
And the three scoundrels, but none of them paid attention to them at all.
When the water and food were full and everything was ready, everyone boarded the car and got on the horse, and galloped towards Taiyuan City with great momentum.
In the carriage sat Zhou Chen and Lu Xiucai, two of them who were about to participate in the imperial examination, so even if they were playing under the banner of the Longmen Dart Bureau.
When they entered Taiyuan City, they did not receive any difficult things to interrogate and interrogate.
It was easy to enter the city, find an inn and settle down.
Zhou Chen and Lu Xiucai were preparing for the upcoming township test, while Zhao Darthead took a group of dart masters to escort the goods to the patron for delivery.
The rabbit rises and falls, the sun and the moon rotate, and in a blink of an eye it is the ninth day of August, the first day of the township test autumn.
When the day was just dawning, the whole inn began to be busy, approaching the day of the township test held in the autumn, almost all the inns in Taiyuan City were temporarily occupied by the talented students who came to take the exam.
Today is the day of the township test autumn, and the inns in Taiyuan City are naturally busy early.
All the students who came to take the exam also started to get up early in the morning to wash up, and packed up all the things needed for the exam, and Zhou Chen and Lu Xiucai were no exception.
After preparing all the items, Zhou Chen and Lu Xiucai walked out of the guest room with a bookcase in one hand and a package in the other.
At the door of the inn, the carriage prepared for Zhou Chen by the Longmen Dart Bureau had been waiting for a long time.
Although on the first day of entering Taiyuan City, Zhao Darttou had already escorted the goods to the hands of the patrons with a group of dart masters, but they did not return to Hanzhong first.
On the contrary, all of them stayed in this Taiyuan City, accompanying Zhou Chen to participate in the township test.
Now Zhao Darttou has personally replaced the previous driver who drove the car for Zhou Chen, and is ready to personally send Zhou Chen to Taiyuan Gongyuan to take the exam.
After Zhou Chen and Lu Xiucai boarded the carriage, Zhao Darttou immediately drove the carriage away from the inn and went straight to the Taiyuan Gongyuan in the south of the city.
At this moment, the flags on the two carriages are no longer the Tongzi flag, and the red and black flags of the Longmen Dart Bureau.
Instead, it was replaced with two bright red lanterns, and the four decent official characters of the Taiyuan Gongyuan were written.
Today is a big day for the imperial examination to be held, and all the carriages that go to Taiyuan Gongyuan are carrying the talented students who participated in the examination.
If the banner of the Dragon Gate Dart Bureau continues to be hoisted on this carriage, wouldn't it be causing trouble for the Dragon Gate Dart Board?
After all, in the eyes of those civil officials, the Longmen Dart Bureau is just a reckless force, and they have never taken it seriously.
It's just that if these invigilators really see that Zhou Chen is actually coming in the carriage of the Longmen Dart Bureau, it will inevitably leave them with the impression of being reckless and insulting.
Before the exam even started, they would give Zhou Chenda a low score in their hearts.
Along the way, Zhou Chen also saw a lot of carriages leaving from various inns, and the big red lanterns of 'Taiyuan Gongyuan' were hung on both sides of each carriage.
The imperial examination is a major event of the country, when the township test autumn is held, all the cities where the tribute institutes in the world are located have already been completely martial law, and Taiyuan City is no exception.
Even if the color is not as bright as it is today, the streets are already full of piles of mighty soldiers, and the road to Taiyuan Gongyuan is full of checkpoints.
However, all the carriages that did not hang the lanterns of the 'Taiyuan Gongyuan' township test were all impounded, so as not to cause blockage of the streets and delay the time for the candidates to enter the examination.
Because of the number of carriages on the street, Zhao Darttou couldn't make the carriage fast.
But fortunately, the inn they chose to stay at before was not far away from Taiyuan Gongyuan.
So it didn't take long for Zhou Chen and Lu Xiucai to come to the square in front of Taiyuan Gongyuan.
After getting out of the carriage, Zhou Chen glanced around the square, and he found that there were not many candidates in the field, and he and Lu Xiucai were obviously early.
However, coming early also has the advantage of coming early, at least you can enter the Gongyuan as soon as possible to prepare for the exam.
Without any hesitation or hesitation, Zhou Chendang took Lu Xiucai to the location of the candidates in Guangyang Mansion and quietly waited for the exam to start.
In the Ming Dynasty, Shanxi Cheng announced that the political envoy department had jurisdiction over six prefectures and two prefectures, so there were eight huge plaques standing in front of the Taiyuan Gongyuan, on which the names of each prefecture were written one by one.
All the talented students who come to participate in the township test must be arranged in the order of their respective ancestral hometowns, so as not to have any branches in the Taiyuan Gongyuan after entering the Taiyuan Tribute Academy.
Looking up at the huge plaque of the 'Taiyuan Tribute Academy', and then looking at the couplets engraved on both sides of the Tribute Courtyard, such as 'Tiankai Wenyun' and 'Tengjiao Qifeng', Zhou Chen Shi stood in place, waiting for the entrance exam calmly.
Compared with Zhou Chen's composure, Lu Xiucai, who was standing behind him, was a little panicked.
I saw Lu Xiucai muttering something while walking around in place.
Zhou Chen pricked up his ears and listened carefully, it turned out that he was silently reciting the content of the Analects, which made Zhou Chen feel a little crying and laughing.
Now that the autumn test in the countryside is about to begin, it is not so much about memorizing the contents of the Four Books and Five Classics and making yourself nervous, it is better to calm down and maintain a good state for the exam.
Immediately, Zhou Chen couldn't help but turn around, he patted Lu Xiucai's shoulder, and said with a serious persuasion: "Brother Lu relax, since Brother Lu has already come to participate in this township test, then Brother Lu is naturally very confident in his knowledge, and he just needs to maintain a normal heart at the moment." ”
"Whew! Call! Call! ”
After listening to Zhou Chen's words, Lu Xiucai first took a few long deep breaths, then arched his hand and said with a wry smile: "Xiaosheng, thank you Brother Zhou for your advice." ”
