Chapter 355: Marking the Papers (2)

Shen Shikang, the head of the household, approved a tiger-headed examination paper in his hand, which really didn't know what to say. This word is not very good, it can only be regarded as general, and then look at the content of the question, I think it is not bad at the beginning, who knows that the more to the back, the more messy the writing, and the beginning is simply different from the mud.

After stamping his seal on the back of the test paper, he put the test paper in one place, ready to wait for his hand to read it and circulate it together.

He then looked at the next chapter, and at this glance, his pupils shrank. Shen Shikang glanced at Xia Qing's office, and heard that Xia Shoufu had accepted a closed disciple, named Min Feng, who also participated in this palace examination.

They have specially found Min Feng's font to observe before, although the pavilion looks similar, but the personal writing habits are different, there will always be subtle differences in the stroke or turn. He is naturally no exception, not only Min Feng, he has also seen Gu Chengyu's, and the one in his hand may be Min Feng's.

He settled his mind and prepared to carefully read the exam paper in his hand. After reading the first question first, he felt that the beginning was very well written, and then looked down, and couldn't help but nod his head when he looked at it.

Originally, if the writing was not good, he would still have some difficulty in giving the circle. Now it seems that the article is so well done, maybe it can be hand-picked as the top three! No one can say anything if he gives a circle, for Xia Shoufu's sake, he thinks that the others will definitely give the circle.

Although he had some trouble with Xia Qing, if he couldn't get along with him in this matter, it would not only have an effect, but would also cause Xia Qing to be angry. The second prince was already very difficult, and he couldn't make trouble for the second prince anymore.

Yu Zheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was also reading the papers, and after giving the previous exam paper to Triangle, he stamped his seal, and then looked at the next one.

This test paper is neat and neat, the characters are written in general size, arranged very neatly, and there are only a few who can write the pavilion style so beautifully. Before he could read the content of the question, he was already a little satisfied. After all, good calligraphy and neat test papers can always make people look comfortable.

If you are in a good mood, you can naturally have the patience to watch it. There is no problem with the format, just this test paper just doesn't look at the content, and he can also give a triangle.

Looking at the content of the question, "Huh? Yu Zheng just read the beginning, and felt that this was a good article, and then looked at the following, and even felt that these four questions were very good. And the content of the question has been pointed to the truth, and the rhetoric is also gorgeous, but not exaggerated. In short, it was a pleasure to read these four questions.

He couldn't help but nod his head sharply, touching his beard, and a smile on his face.

"What? Yu-sama? But have you seen a good article? Take a look at it. Shen Shikang, who was sitting next to Yu Zheng, heard Yu Zheng's exclamation, and hurriedly leaned over to look.

Yu Zheng wanted to say that he would wait for him to approve it before circulating it, but suddenly thought of something.

"Not really, it's just that the words look good."

When Shen Shikang heard this, he didn't doubt it, Yu Zheng has some love for calligraphy, and it is not uncommon for him to exclaim when he sees good calligraphy. He smiled and didn't reply, but continued to look at the test paper in his hand.

What did Yu Zheng think of? Of course, it's the owner of this test paper! Could this test paper be Gu Chengyu's? After all, Gu Chengyu is a Huiyuan, and he is only eight years old, it is not surprising that he can write such a splendid article.

He hesitated a little, holding the pen and making a decision on the exam paper. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if a triangle or a point is given, then Gu Chengyu will have one less circle, and Min Feng's exam paper will inevitably have eight circles, which will be able to compare Gu Chengyu to the bottom.

The tip of his brush just clicked on the test paper, and it didn't work! He withdrew the pen with a grunt, unable to give the triangle.

There is no doubt that this test paper can be circled. He is not the only one who has given the remarker, if everyone else has given the circle, but only he has given the triangle, will it arouse suspicion?

He then thought of Xia Shoufu, Xia Shoufu definitely didn't want Gu Chengyu to be the first, who did Tong Zhouyi do things for, they all knew it, would Xia Qing give the circle? Anyway, if this test paper is missing two circles, the maximum ranking can only be twenty or thirty.

What's more, Taichang Siqing and Li Wei, a scholar of the Middle Pole Temple, is Xia Shoufu's person, and other officials have nothing to do with Gu Chengyu, so they may give a circle, in fact, Gu Chengyu's exam paper is actually very easy to recognize.

With such literary brilliance and outstanding calligraphy, most of them are him. Even if it wasn't sure, it wouldn't be far from ten, so Gu Chengyu might get a lower circle.

After thinking about it again and again, Yu Zheng put down his mind and drew a stroke on the test paper, and then stamped his own seal on the back.

His abnormality had actually attracted the attention of Shen Shikang next to him, just now Yu Zheng said that the exam paper was just a good word, and he didn't care, but why did Yu Zheng seem to have a hard time making a decision after that? If there is an uncertain exam paper, everyone will generally discuss it and gather everyone's thoughts, so that if there is anything in this way, everyone will bear the consequences together.

But he looked at Yu Zheng as if he was hiding this test paper, he was very strange, and he didn't know what Yu Zheng's intention was.

Shen Shikang glanced at the test paper, thinking that when it was his turn, he must observe carefully to see what was going on.

Shen Shikang didn't know that Yu Zheng and Gu Chengyu were having another holiday, and he was still strange about Huiyuan's test paper at this time! Jiangcai's test paper is already amazing, I don't know how Gu Chengyu's test paper is, is it capable of overpowering Min Feng?

Yu Zheng put Gu Chengyu's test paper aside, and then looked at the next one, but he was a little uneasy, and when he saw the latter test paper with two traces of alteration, he didn't read the content carefully, and directly gave a cross.

Li Wei had already taken refuge in Xia Qing, and of course he had carefully pondered Min Feng's handwriting. Therefore, as soon as he saw Min Feng's paper, he recognized it, and after reading the test paper roughly, he drew a circle on the test paper.

"Huh? This is a very good question. Suddenly, Shen Shikang exclaimed with a test paper, looking a little excited.

"Lord Shen, show it to the official." Shang Qianyi, the secretary of the ministry, saw that Shen Shikang admired it so much, and he was also interested and wanted to see the test paper.

"Lord Shang, don't worry, it will pass soon."

Originally, some officials wanted to go up and see it, but when they heard this, they didn't take action. There are more than 400 examination papers in total, and each one has to be seen, which takes a lot of time. Anyway, it will always come into my own hands, so I just concentrate on reading the scroll.

Yu Zheng glanced to the side and found that it was the scroll he had hesitated before, and his face sank a little at this moment.

Seeing Shen Shikang draw a circle on it, he looked away with an ugly face and looked at the scroll in his hand.
