"Second Prince Duan?" Zhu Rong stood beside Zhu Luan, his eyes widened in surprise, and he looked at the bamboo card in Duan Lizheng's hand.

According to the numbers on the bamboo plaque, Zhu Rong's house is on the left side of Zhu Luan, and Duan Lizheng is on the right.

"What a coincidence," Zhu Rong muttered quietly.

The fingers of Zhu Luan's right hand moved slightly.

yes, what a coincidence.

I've been running into him everywhere lately.

But if those previous encounters were indeed coincidences, but this time even the exam numbers were connected, and it was too coincidental that the number room happened to be next door.

Zhu Luan and Zhu Rong's examination numbers are serial, this is not a coincidence, it is the result of Princess Jinyang's arrangement.

But even Duan Lizheng, who was not in the same class as the county test and the two of them, was lined up with Zhu Luan and others for no reason, which was really a coincidence.

"yes, that's a coincidence." At this time, Li Zheng also relieved himself from his surprise, and heard Zhu Rong's words and greeted him.

Listening to the men's greetings, Zhu Luan just wanted to say that it was too bad.

Regardless of whether this is a coincidence or not, from the perspective of results, Duan Lizheng's exam number is connected to Zhu Rong and Zhu Luan, which is an extremely bad result.

Because the township examination papers are scored in strict accordance with the order of the examination number.

This also means that the examiner who marks the paper will see Duan Lizheng and Zhu Luan's exam papers at a similar time.

And the current ranking Duan Lizheng is just one place in front of Zhu Luan.

People are preconceived creatures, imagine if you are an examiner and you see a wonderful article in the front, and the subsequent article is not much better than this article, it will not leave any image.

Zhu Luan looked at the young man in front of her, when she was preparing for the township exam, she had collected all the articles that Duan Lizheng circulated in the market, including the one where he won the first place in the county exam.

After reading it, she learned only one fact, that is, this teenager is very scary.

Compared with his brother who was almost three yuan and first, Duan Lizheng's style is not the same as Duan Haochu. But it has a strong overwhelming power, and it only makes people breathless after reading it.

In the general writing of showing off skills, it is a very talented ability to think.

If there had been no incident of the test papers being polluted during the previous county examination, and everything was normal, Zhu Luan could almost confidently believe that his article could dominate.

But the township test will not work.

Because at least Duan Lizheng is here.

The evaluation of the article is a very subjective thing, and only when there is a certain gap between the two can a more positive judgment be made, otherwise it is a matter of opinion.

In the face of Duan Lizheng, Zhu Luan couldn't widen the gap so wide.

There are always all kinds of people in the world, just like Gu Shi, like the Queen of Heaven, just like Duan Haochu.

And now, she met Duan Lizheng.

There is no why, it is because he is Duan Lizheng.

Even considering the topic and the situation of the on-the-spot performance, in the case of the wind direction against her, he is very likely to surpass himself.

In the case that there is no particularly big gap between the two sides, and the test papers are still ranked behind, Zhu Luan suddenly has a feeling that he has been targeted by the whole world.

"Ah, it turned out to be Duan Ergongzi, this is really a long time since I saw it, it's been a long time since I've seen it." Just when Zhu Luan was secretly thinking to himself, a somewhat shrill male voice came, and it was uncomfortable just listening to the sound.

When the three of them heard the sound, Zhu Luan found that this was really an acquaintance.

A pair of eyes that can be reminiscent of cold ice, looking at Zhu Luan's expression at this time is even more gloomy.

It was Zhu Luan's senior in Tianquan Academy, and Jin Deli, who had set the results of the township test with Zhu Luan before.

He was dressed in a shirt that looked similar to the people around him, but if he looked closer, he could see that the shirt was full of patterns.

It was completely different from the white-washed robe that Zhu Luan had seen him wear before.

Jin Deli stood beside Duan Lizheng and talked.

Obviously, Zhu Luan and Zhu Rongcai belonged to the same academy as him, but as long as Duan Lizheng was here, Jindeli had no interest in them.

I don't know if I finished saying everything I could say, Jindeli finally looked at Zhu Luan and the others.

"Second Prince Duan, it's not easy for you," Jin Deli said with a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, "It's not even easy to take a test." ”

After speaking, he continued to sarcastically, "But it's not incomprehensible, the girl who hasn't left the pavilion stays with so many men for three nights, if I don't have Duan Ergongzi, I can't sit still, so I can only come and guard." ”

This sentence was very malicious, and after hearing it, the people around Zhu Luan frowned.

Yes, the township test has been held three times in a row, and the reason why it is said to be a physical duel is that all candidates must stay in the number house for these three days.

The food and accommodation for the exam are all in the number house.

And in the dormitory, as long as you don't cheat, the examiner won't care what you're doing.

So this meant that Zhu Luan had to stay in a small number room and stay with hundreds of candidates for three days.

"Fortunately, Miss Zhu and Second Prince Duan have a marriage contract," Jin De looked at Duan Lizheng with pity, "Otherwise, how will I marry in the future." ”

No matter how good Rao is Duan Lizheng's patience is, he feels very inappropriate when he hears such overt and sarcastic words.

"You ......" He was interrupted before he could finish his sentence, and the central figure of the topic interrupted him instead.

"Anyway, I won't marry you," Zhu Luan smiled and waved his hand, "So don't think about it so much," After speaking, she pulled up the trumpet board and walked into her own house.

Kindley was about to say something, when the official who was patrolling the field took the castanets and walked all the way here. The students who were still talking along the way suddenly became honest and entered their own houses.

A drum sounded, deafening, proving that the time had come for the first subject to begin.

All the officials and clerks who were examined in front of the examination booth disappeared and were replaced by rows of guards. From this moment on, candidates will no longer be accepted into the venue.

The first test is the scriptures and texts, after the drum reverberates, on the flagpole in the center of the examination shed, a huge scroll unfolds, and the question of today's township test appears in front of everyone.

Although it is the same as the prefectural exam, the questions have become much more complicated.

All the questions are divided into three parts, the first part is the essay "Analects", the essay "Mencius", the essay "The Mean" or the essay "University", a poem with five words and eight rhymes, four poems of scripture and meaning, each of the three questions and four books in the initial part must write more than 300 words, and the four questions of the scriptures need to be written more than 500 words.

In the second part, try to use the Five Classics, and try the edict, judgment, table, and edict, and the argumentative essay requires more than 300 words, and there will be changes in the future.

In the third part, we try to use five current affairs policies, that is, to express opinions and opinions on current affairs and political affairs at that time in combination with scripture theories.

Smelling the smell of ink, everyone opened the manuscript paper on the number plate, or meditated, or wrote hard.

When you give it your full attention, everything goes by quickly.

The same is true for Duan Lizheng, when he finished writing the last word, he suddenly found that the light around him had already dimmed.

As the sun set, an hour later, a crisp gong sound came from outside. The first of the township test, which lasted all day, ended like this.

An official came to collect the scrolls. Anyway, no one can get out, so they can only stay here.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and only a few rooms in the examination booth still had candles.

Duan Lizheng lay down on the trumpet board and was about to take a nap, but he heard the sound of rustling in his ears.

A black figure seemed to flash before his eyes.

I want to talk about "Yingluan" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
