The two came to the Wenqu Star Temple on the left, and each knelt on the futon on the left and right to worship the Wenqu Shangxian.

Pan Ling didn't want to be in the same place with the woman of the merchant's family, but this temple was not her family's, and she didn't have the ability to clean up, so she could only endure the discomfort and worship the incense, and finally picked up the stick holder on the platform and shook a lucky stick.

The bamboo stick fell to the ground with a click, and a maid picked it up and respectfully handed it to the master.

Pan Ling glanced at it, and the number on it was twenty-three.

The hexagram needed to be solved, and there was a master sitting on the table next to it, and Fan Ling personally sent it over.

The master has been here for many years, and without the help of books, he glanced at it and said: "What the donor wants is not satisfactory for the time being, this matter still needs to be worked on, and he will seek perfection again in the future." ”

He will seek perfection again and again!

Fan Ling's face turned pale and pale, three times in a row, she asked for the same type of signature, this? When is it a head?

If you can't go further this year, you can only donate officials or fill the vacancy.

Fan Ling naturally couldn't say what he was thinking, he thanked the monk and prepared to leave.

At this time, Ah Xiu stepped forward and gave the master another sign.

The monk glanced at it and said with a smile: "This is a lot, and everything will go well." ”

"Master Xie."

Ah Xiu hooked her lips and smiled.

Not far away, Fan Ling stopped, glanced sideways at her before leading people away.

The merchant girl actually asked for a signature......

Fan Ling pursed her lips, faintly jealous in her heart.

*****

Before the exam, Hu Ke and a few people came to the Song Mansion to find Song Tian to ask for the question, and then everyone sat in their rooms to read books, waiting to see them in the examination room.

The day before the exam, the court finally issued a holy decree and determined the examiners for this time.

There are three chief and deputy examiners, and there are 18 examiners, as well as internal and external office officials, invigilators, etc.

The types of examiners for the general examination are similar to those for the township examination, but there are more people.

After all, there are many examples of people who come to reference, and it is understandable to add people.

When the news came out, the people of the various guilds rushed to tell each other, and then all parties inquired about the preferences of the chief and deputy examiners, but the time was limited, and there was no root, and even the names of the examiners could not be inquired, so how could they know what kind of articles people liked.

On the afternoon of the day the examiner was announced, Song Tian went back to Lulin Academy.

This was explained by the master during the holiday, and the examiner issued a holy decree to let them go back to the college.

The students who came from afar didn't know about those people, but the academies that had already opened a century-old academy here were different, so they inquired in advance and found out the bottom.

That's where the benefits of organization come into play.

Song Tian went and returned at night.

Chang hurriedly brought a steaming meal and told his son to go to rest as soon as possible after eating.

The general examination is the same as the township examination, one test is three days, how can you stand it if you don't cultivate a good spirit.

During the meal, Tong Liangyu, who had been waiting in the house, came over.

This afternoon, he also went back to the private school to find the master, but unfortunately those examiners and masters were not familiar with it, so he pinned his hopes on Song Tian, hoping to get some useful news.

There are many officials in the DPRK and China, although Lulin Academy knows something, but only knows the situation of one of the deputy exams, the chief examiner has been upset this time, no one guessed it, and there is not much useful information.

However, the dean also said that there are many examiners, and there is no need to deliberately figure out their preferences, just follow their usual method of solving questions, and do not deliberately cater to them, so as not to be self-defeating.

Tong Liangyu got the news and left quickly.

On this day, Song Ercai did not supervise his son's study anymore, but sent him to the courtyard to stare at going to bed early.

Early the next morning, within the third watch, several courtyards were lit up.

Song Ercai counted the prepared test baskets and bags in the courtyard, and Song Tian and Tong Liangyu were busy washing up and eating breakfast.

When everything was ready, Ah Xiu also came out, and everyone went to the front yard together, and they wanted to send the two to the tribute courtyard.

Song Ercai followed his son and they sat in the carriage in front of them, and told them in many ways on the car, first of all, to put the body first, and not to be careless about colds and colds, etc., in case of mistaking the exam.

I will try it once every three days, so I don't need to be impatient, I will rest first and then do the questions.

Then it's important to keep the roll neat and tidy.

In the car behind, Chang didn't bring his daughter by his side, so his heart went to his son, and he was inevitably a little nervous.

Ah Xiu comforted her and said that it was okay, Brother Tian would definitely win.

"You kid, you say this every time, but every time you say it to you, it's like a lucky star for our family."

Chang Shi put his arm around Ah Xiu's shoulders and said, "It's not long before I can do a happy event for the two of you after the exam......"

Halfway through, the carriage couldn't move, and the group got out of the car and walked.

It didn't take long for the people to go, and there were more and more people, so it was not good for the ladies to continue to move forward.

Song Tian turned around and bowed to Chang's and said, "Mother, don't worry, my son will go first." ”

Chang smiled and encouraged: "I wish my son a victory." ”

Song Tian nodded, looked at Ah Xiu and said, "I'm going in, you guys go back first." ”

"Brother Tim, go ahead."

The group said goodbye, and Song Ercai and Tang Hai carried the burden and sent the two over.

When they arrived at the dam in front of the Gongyuan, there were officials to stabilize the order, and the people who saw them off could no longer move forward.

Song Tian found Hu Ke and the others in the crowd, they hurriedly talked about the conversation, exchanged messages, and then began to line up according to the guidelines.

The process of the examination is similar to that of the township examination, roll call, queuing, body search, and finally obtaining a license to enter the dragon gate, and when the gate is closed, the triennial examination will begin.

The examination time of the general examination is the same as that of the township examination, which is held once every three days, and there is an interval of one day between the three examinations.

The exam started on the eighth day of the first month, and on the tenth day of the first month, Song Ercai and Ah Xiu took a car to the gate of the Gongyuan early in the morning to wait.

Chang took his little daughter to come over and wait, so he arranged food at the house, and took advantage of this time to make up for the two children.

Near noon, the gate of the Gongyuan was opened, and someone finally came out.

Among the top ten people are Song Tian and Hu Ke.

Ah Xiu and Song Ercai were overjoyed, seeing that they were tired, they didn't ask anything, Ah Xiu accompanied Song Tian back to the house first, and Song Ercai also found a carriage to send Hu Ke to the inn, he himself had to wait a little longer, and then go back when Tong Liangyu came out.

Tong Liangyu came out late, and followed the team when it was almost dark.

He and Pang Zimo had a very tacit understanding, the two actually got together, and Ji Ying had already come out before them.

The two of them didn't look very good, so Song Ercai sent Pang Zimo back first, and then took Tong Liangyu back to the house.

When they returned, Song Tian had already fallen asleep.

The two of them got up and ate something, and when they felt comfortable, they got up and took the exam questions, and then they ate and slept to nourish their spirits.

The next day, the second session began.

In this way, after the three exams, the young and strong look haggard and exhausted, those old moves, go out and fall directly.
