Chapter 69 Prefectural Examination (1)
Liu Anqing came back to his senses and found that Yun Ji had already finished eating.
"It's nothing, it's just that I just thought of something and fell into a god." Liu Anqing hurriedly picked up the rice to hide his unnaturalness. Can he say that he was jealous just now?
After eating, Yun Ji took a nap for a while. There was an hour in the afternoon when the master was teaching. Since he took the county exam, he didn't have to listen to Jiang Xiaohui's lectures in the morning, and he could arrange it by himself, just like those senior brothers who had already taken the exam and passed.
After the lecture was finished, the village school was dismissed. Yun Ji wants to stay and learn the piano with Master Zhuzi.
Through continuous practice, bumps and bumps, Yunji can finally play a small song. Take Li Qing's words, Yun Ji is now playing soulless tunes. Emptiness has its form, but no meaning.
This must go through the edification of time, the growth of years and the increase of experience before it can truly make the clouds and precipitation.
He was still a playful child, and Li Qing didn't want to squeeze Yunji into a pedantic and stereotyped appearance. She hopes that Yunji will have the vitality and creativity of young people.
It is said that before the imperial court adapted the scientific examination textbooks, young people were generally very old, and after they were included, they only knew how to follow the steps and did not know how to innovate and develop.
Later, the former prime minister was angry and overrode public opinion, and cooperated with scholars from Hallym University to compile the current set of textbooks. The theories examined are all practical and emphasized. The situation has only improved.
Xiucai's previous exams were a test of basic knowledge, and everywhere he went, he memorized by rote. After all, if the foundation is not firm, the ground will shake. The imperial court still has the considerations of the imperial court.
The so-called title of Xiucai is just a stepping stone to participate in the official scientific examination. The imperial court stipulates that only naturalized Xiucai can be eligible for scientific examination, that is, it must be registered by the imperial court to be eligible.
Many children of big families only need to be recommended by people of high moral standing to have this title, and children from poor families like Yun Ji can only pass the exam.
Li Qing is very fortunate that Yun Ji was able to meet a knowledgeable and rhythmic teacher, music can promote people's talents, but also cultivate sentiments. A person who knows the rhythm of music will have a different temperament around him.
There is still a long way to go for the cloud and the future, and any difficulties and obstacles can be reduced to small ones. Li Qing wants to create a solid rear for Yunji.
The March government test came as scheduled. Because the time of the government examination and the time of the hospital examination were staggered, Liu Anqing did not come along. However, Yun Ji is not alone this time.
Liu Anyun, the eldest son of the Liu family in the village school, was recommended by the master to participate in the government examination. Liu Anyun had already participated once before, but his name fell to Sun Shan. It's been two years since he last last time. So this time he has a good chance of passing.
Liu Anyun is usually very quiet and rarely speaks, but when he talks about the principles of the sage in the books, he turns into a Tang monk and speaks endlessly.
"Little junior brother, Confucius said, do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequality, do not suffer from poverty but suffer from anxiety. You say that if we can really achieve equal distribution of wealth in governing a country, then we will not become rich? If the whole country became rich, wouldn't that be a mess? I should be even more uneasy. Liu Anyun grinned.
Yun Ji: "......" doesn't want to hear you say these crooked theories. Obviously I understand, but I still have to talk nonsense, I really don't know what this senior brother thinks in his head?
"Little junior brother, I remember the last exam, I took the arithmetic, I didn't answer it in my brain, after I went back, I studied hard, and I will definitely win this time."
Yun Ji: "......" said all the way, do you want to sit down and drink some water?
Arithmetic was not tested during the prefectural examination, which was the content of the prefectural examination. The government test is stricter and more formal than the county test, and it is not a grade.
Since entering the village school, Yunji has been learning arithmetic, sentence reading, scripture meaning, and calligraphy...... and so on. This government exam question is also a final test of what he has learned at this stage. He didn't want to fail, and he didn't want to cause trouble to his mother and grandmother because of his failure.
Therefore, this government test is determined to win.
Jiang stayed at home to spin thread, she specially invited Wang to join her, and paid Wang copper coins, which is equivalent to hired labor. Hiring is nothing new.
Li Qing accompanied Yun Ji to the county seat to participate in the government examination.
The government test is still three and lasts six days.
The first two are written exams and the last is an oral exam. The process is no different from the county exam, except that the exam is more standardized and strict.
Meow a mi, suspect that the county order deliberately released water during the county test, how to break? The gap between the county test and the government test is bigger, but it's more than a star and a half.
Before dawn, Yun Ji went to the examination room with the examination basket, the examination venue was as usual, and the examination shed was temporarily set up.
The first level is to search and check the identity, the body search prevents the private taking of cheat sheets, and the identity check is to prevent the substitute test. The household registration framework of the Tianqi Dynasty is complex and tight, basically including the entire Tianqi Dynasty.
There is also the existence of this thing, and I want to take the test for the exam, unless I have plastic surgery.
Yun Ji was asked to open his arms, and the examiner groped around him, especially the pockets and sleeves. Seeing that it was nothing, he let him in. Yun Ji is nine years old, much taller than the previous seven years old, but he is still a little short in the eyes of adults.
Li Qing watched Yun Ji enter the examination room, stood for a while, and prepared to leave.
"Aunt Qing." Li Qing was just about to leave, but was stopped by a voice.
The owner of this voice was Guan Shangxuan, and he was followed by a man with a beard and a solemn face. I haven't seen him for two years, Guan Shangxuan has become more and more out of the world, not to mention being a head taller than before, and the momentum around him is much more mature than two years ago.
Seeing his height, Li Qing couldn't help but worry about Yun Ji, why did he still be a little dwarf after so long? Look at Guan Shangxuan, he is already a little adult.
"Aunt Qing, this is my teacher Master Li." Guan Shangxuan introduced Li Qing.
Li Qing and Li Fuzi saluted each other.
"Is Yunji here too? Since the last time I said goodbye, I have thought about it many times, but who knew that my father sent me to Li Fuzi's private school, and I didn't find a chance, and then natural disasters ...... Yun Ji hasn't forgotten me, has he? Guan Shangxuan asked weakly, and Li Qing smiled lightly.
"He hasn't forgotten you, and often tells me that he misses you, so he just went in, you go to the queue, and you two can talk about it after the exam."
Guan Shangxuan heard that Yun Ji hadn't forgotten him, and said happily: "Okay." ”
After Guan Shangxuan entered the examination room, Li Fuzi and Li Qing went to the teahouse together.
"Are you that Li Niang?" Dr. Li was sitting in the teahouse, and the storyteller on it was about to start.
"Exactly, Master Li has heard of me?" Li Qing was flattered, her name ...... How can it be spread so far?
"I heard about some of Li Niangzi's deeds, and on the way to here, I heard Shang Xuan Xiaowa say that Li Niangzi is someone he knows, and it's true."
Li Qing said: I obviously haven't done anything, but I can be heard everywhere, should I be happy, or happy?
