It is estimated that she is the only one in this year's female township tribute, or the township tribute examination is much stricter than that of the students, Liu Chenxing found that the inspection time was longer than that of the person in front of him, and the middle-aged female official who was not smiling kept looking at her with scrutinizing eyes.

She was the last one of the Yongzhou women to be checked in, and when she was searched and checked, and checked her identity again, she was led under the corridor and sat on the ground.

The corridor is the room around the hall.

More than 1,000 people can't fit in one courtyard, so they are led to multiple courtyards for separate exams.

The examination room that Liu Chenxing was assigned to was a very large courtyard, and the houses were also very large, each room could accommodate twenty or thirty people to take the exam, and their women's lifters happened to occupy the four rooms on the west side, and the north house opposite the hall on the left side arranged for the men's lifter exam.

Because there are very few female lifters, when Liu Chenxing took a seat, only one or two male lifters were introduced into the courtyard, she saw that there was still a while before the exam, so she took out the small copper stove she was finally willing to buy this year, and then set up charcoal to make a fire, and then poured the water in the bamboo tube into a pottery bowl, put it on the copper stove to warm it slowly, and finally took out her little wolf skin mattress to cover her legs, and then lay on the table to rest.

I got up too early today, I got up at about two o'clock in the morning, and after three hours of various rushes, I finally sat down on my exam seat smoothly.

Most of the surrounding female lifters are apprentices in Yongzhou, their family background is good one by one, how do you need to make your own fire, there is a delicate and small hand warmer in the bag, seeing Liu Chenxing actually took out a stove to make a fire by himself, surprised, couldn't help but chuckle again, and then saw Liu Chenxing directly lying on the table without an image and sleeping, all the girls couldn't help but be stunned, and the bottom of their eyes also brought out a little disgust or contempt, of course, there are also better educated girls and apprentices, who have always maintained just the right light expression, It seemed that all was not enough to get their attention.

The procedure for the crowd to check the entrance continued from the navy blue sky to the gray.

By the time all the lifters had sat down in their seats, it was finally getting light, but the sun had not come out, and it was clear that it would be a cloudy day today.

At this time, Yao Chongzheng, the waiter of the Provincial Examination Zhigong Household Department, also began to inspect the examination room one by one with four fellow examiners and two superintendents.

The examiners are the big men wearing crimson official uniforms, and although the two inspectors of the imperial history have low ranks, they are the lower ranks of the eighth rank wearing cyan official uniforms, but they have a wide range of authority and are quite feared by hundreds of officials.

There are seven bigwigs patrolling in such a line, which can be described as huge, where they passed, all the candidates held their breath and condensed, waiting for the exam, so that without any words, it has achieved the effect of deterring the examination room and serious performance evaluation, which is also the queen's lesson that the previous examiner was humble and could not deter the candidates.

Yao Chongzheng inspected the examination room one by one, and when he saw that all the candidates were waiting for the exam, he couldn't help but smile.

Last year, when Zhigong was raised, he fell first, avoided the matter, and let Zheng Hong stand up.

After the earthquake in the scientific field, these people also know the current affairs, and know that this year's provincial examination is staring at all parties, and even the people who give him the papers and ask for them are gone, and if this situation continues, he only needs to read the papers impartially and rank them, saying that this year's imperial examination seems to be quite severe, but in fact it is the easiest year, at least there is no need to weigh the relationship between all parties.

Thinking of this, Yao Chongzheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was straight and he patrolled to the next examination room.

As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, there was a fragrance coming, and I knew that I had arrived at the courtyard where the female lifter was.

For women to participate in the imperial examination, he is different from the secular concept, thinking that women are useless, not to mention that the current ruler of the world is a woman, the first female official Ouyang Zijin next to the empress is known as the prime minister, and many decrees come from her.

In recent years, the female imperial examination is no longer limited to her background, and one or two talented women have been selected to serve as female officials by the empress's side, but now the time is still shallow, far less than Ouyang Zijin, but it is no longer like the female examiners who were selected before to do such trivial things as grinding ink, and they have also begun to do things for the empress, sorting out the chapters, drafting edicts, etc., and such a close minister, if you can make friends with it, it can be described as a great benefit.

At this point, I suddenly remembered that there was also a talented person among the female lifters this year, who was competing with the men, all the way to the provincial examination, and also became a township tribute as Yongzhou Xie Yuan, which shows that he does have real talent and real learning, and he couldn't help but be curious, so he said: "This year's Yongzhou Xie Yuan is a woman, but it is the first case since the sage opened the female imperial examination. ”

In addition to the seven bigwigs present, there were also two or three low-level civilian attendants from the examiner's foreign lang and the official department.

Although Yao Chongzheng, the head of the household department, is not directly subordinate to Shangfeng, but the official is a first-level crushing person, and as a lower official, he naturally needs to know Shangfeng's art of speaking, that is, Shangfeng only thinks of one, and they have to think of two, three, four, five, six.

The person in charge of this year's seat arrangement is Fang Decheng, a member of the Ministry of Officials, and said: "Liu Jinshi is the only female apprentice this year, and he is still Yongzhou Xie Yuan, so about Liu Jinshi's position, Xia Guan remembers it very clearly, it is the first in the third column of the first examination room." ”

They are now standing under the eaves of the corridor outside the main hall, and the first examination room on the left is equivalent to being under their eyelids.

I saw that in the first examination room, among the female lifters sitting upright, a female lifter was sleeping on the table without any image, and she sat in the eye-catching position in the first row, and she saw it almost at first sight, and this position was impartial It was the position of his talent, Fang Decheng's face suddenly stiffened.

However, at this time, it was too late to hide it, and several bigwigs had already looked over.

Fang Decheng had to smile awkwardly: "In order to take the exam today, it is estimated that the candidates will have to get up on the third watch, and they will have to deal with the exam for another day today, so it is quite smart to take a break before the exam." ”

The responsibility and power of supervising the imperial history is to be in charge of supervising hundreds of officials, inspecting counties and counties, correcting prisons, purging the court and other affairs, many Beijing officials in order to catch up with the early dynasty, they were mixed with a book while riding a horse on the road while eating hu cakes, not to mention Liu Chenxing, who actually slept in the examination room!?

And if it's a man, how can a little lady behave like this!?

The two overseers couldn't help but shake their heads.

Yao Chongzheng, the head of the household department, and Yang Guanzhi, the head of the department, nodded secretly.

As the deputy head of the department, one of them deals with money and food all day long, and the other is all day long dealing with various classes and examinations and transfers of officials, and their affairs are redundant, and they know the importance of a clear mind to answer the papers, especially in today's first post, they have seen the examination questions, most of which are partial sentences or sentences that are easy to quote, and if they are not careful, there is a danger of answering incorrectly.

So, instead of sitting around in the air, it's better to recharge your energy like this.

It's just that I don't know if this woman is from a humble background, because she is too sleepy, she simply sleeps regardless of her image, or if she really lives up to her name and has this vision.
