readx;? Exam!

It is a kind of examination that students must take before they are eligible to participate in the official imperial examination. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info can only be called a show talent if he passes the college examination, and he has an official reputation.

Showing talent and not bowing to officials and exempting them from forced labor and other privileges are the basic goals pursued by scholars.

If it were other scholars, they would inevitably be nervous when they approached the college exam, but in Fang Haoran's heart, it did not stir up the slightest wave.

With Fang Haoran's current strength, even if he has no fame, he can still live very well in this world. However, the greatest hope of Fang Haoran's predecessor was to gain fame and glory to his ancestors, and it was not difficult for Fang Haoran to meet the wish of his predecessor.

The big and small Yu'er had already prepared their bags, which were filled with pen and ink food, etc. The exam doesn't end in a while, so bring your own food. Fang Haoran's current cultivation is not hungry if he doesn't eat, but this is all carefully prepared by the big and small Yu'er, and he still brought everything with him.

"Young master, this is the talisman I asked for in the temple yesterday, it's very spiritual, you can bring it!" Da Yu'er took out a yellow talisman with some strange patterns drawn on it.

Fang Haoran could see at a glance that this talisman had no mana and was fake, but seeing Da Yu'er's expectant gaze, he still took the talisman over.

"Young master, you can take the exam with peace of mind, you will definitely be able to pass the exam, Xiao Yu'er and I will stay at home to help you pray for blessings!"

......

Qiantang Mansion is worthy of being the holy land of the imperial examination, in order to meet the needs of all students to take the examination, a special tribute institute has been established, not only the local students' college examination in the tribute academy, but also the township examination of the entire Yangzhou students.

The Gongyuan is built in the south of Qiantang Prefecture, the location is very quiet, and it is a good place for reading and exams. However, the streets that used to be quiet are now noisy.

There are nearly 1,000 candidates who come to participate in the college examination, plus the people who watch the excitement, and the whole street is crowded.

When Fang Haoran came to the Gongyuan, the sun was already hot, and there was less than half an hour before the start of the exam.

"Brother Haoran, you're a little late!" a fat man squeezed through the crowd from a distance. It was the fat man Zhu Wen.

Fang Haoran doesn't have many friends in this world, and Zhu Wen is one. He smiled slightly: "Isn't this the exam still open, it's useless to come early!"

"That is, you can face the hospital exam so calmly, I didn't sleep all night last night!" Zhu Wen's spirit did not look very good, coupled with the hot sun above his head, his face was a little pale, and his breath was a little unstable.

Seeing Zhu Wen's appearance, Fang Haoran remembered that when he took the college entrance examination in his previous life, some students in the class were too nervous to faint during the exam.

Fang Haoran frowned, and immediately took out a pill of Huangjing Pill and handed it to Zhu Wen, saying, "I see that your complexion is not very good, this pill can warm and replenish the spirit, you can eat it!"

Zhu Wen was not polite, he swallowed the pill after revealing it, and then he felt warm all over his body, and he was not sweating or nervous.

"Your pill is so powerful, I feel that my brain is much more flexible after taking it!" Zhu Wen said curiously, "Where did you buy this pill?" I'll buy more when I go back, and I won't have to be afraid of exams in the future!"

Fang Haoran smiled, took out a bottle of Huangjing Dan and stuffed it into Zhu Wen's hand. Now Huang Jingdan has no effect on him, but for ordinary people like Zhu Wen, it is no less than a panacea.

"So much, how much, I'll give you the money when I go back!" Zhu Wen was surprised.

"It's not worth a few dollars!" Fang Haoran waved his hand lightly, and then turned his head to look in another direction. Zhu Wen was curious and followed suit.

I saw that at the end of the street, after a loud shout, a group of officials came over with honor guards and stopped the people on both sides of the street. The road was cleared, and a group of people came over on tall horses.

The person at the head was a middle-aged man, in his forties, with a straight face, and a majestic momentum emanating from his body, which looked like a person who had been in a high position for a long time.

And the prefect of Qiantang, the prefect of Jiang, who was extremely majestic in the past, lowered his head beside the middle-aged man, as if he looked like a subordinate.

"It's Master Xuezheng!" someone recognized the identity of the middle-aged man.

No wonder! Everyone suddenly understood in their hearts. Xuezheng is the chief official who presides over the imperial examination in the Jiangnan area, and the official residence is of three grades, which can be much higher than the status of the Jiang prefect, no wonder the Jiang prefect is so submissive.

Fang Haoran's eyes swept over the face of the academic master, and he vaguely felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember when he had seen the other party.

Then, Fang Haoran sensed another gaze, looked sideways, and saw Jiang Ruolan smiling at the back of the official team. The relationship between the college examination is very large, and even Xuezheng was present in person, so the task of strengthening security fell on the six doors, and Jiang Ruolan naturally wanted to come over.

Xuezheng and his entourage arrived, announcing that the exam was about to begin.

As the gate of the Gongyuan slowly opened, the candidates also crowded forward, hoping to enter the examination room as soon as possible.

"Brother Haoran, let's go over too!" Zhu Wen said anxiously.

"What's the hurry, there's still half an hour before the exam starts!" Fang Haoran said gracefully.

Fang Haoran was the last to enter the examination room every time he took the exam in his previous life, and when the exam room first opened, there were too many people inside, so he didn't bother to go in and squeeze in.

The corners of Zhu Wen's mouth twitched slightly, but seeing that Fang Haoran was so calm, Zhu Wen's mood actually relaxed.

As all the candidates entered the Tribute Academy, the appearance of the two of them became a little conspicuous.

Master Xuezheng glanced at the two of them in some surprise, and then turned his head sideways and asked Governor Jiang, "I think those two people are also candidates, why don't they go to the Tribute Academy?"

Governor Jiang looked up, and his face suddenly became ugly. Especially seeing Fang Haoran's graceful appearance, Jiang Zhifu felt even more uncomfortable in his heart, and said: "That fat man's name is Zhu Wen, and he hasn't been admitted to Xiucai for many years, most of them are self-defeating!" He deliberately did not introduce Fang Haoran, wanting to confuse the public. When ordinary people hear Governor Jiang's explanation, most people will think that Fang Haoran is similar to Zhu Wen, and they are also the kind of candidates who give up on themselves, after all, things gather people in groups.

Master Xuezheng really frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Since you are a candidate, you must look like a candidate, no matter how talented you are, you should go all out, what is self-abandonment, you go and inform them to come in and take the exam quickly, otherwise I will close the hospital." ”

The Gongyuan is usually closed only after the official start of the exams, and Xuezheng is obviously very unhappy when he says this.

At this time, Jiang Ruolan on the side hurriedly said: "Master Xuezheng, I know them, I dare to guarantee that they definitely did not deliberately neglect the exam, maybe something happened, I'll take a look!" After speaking, he ran out in a hurry.

"Governor Jiang, your daughter is very enthusiastic, and you have a good tutor!" nodded approvingly.

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Jiang Zhifu had a smile on his face, but he was scolding Jiang Ruolan in his heart, he wished that Xuezheng would be angry and cancel Fang Haoran's exam qualification!

On the other side, Fang Haoran saw Jiang Ruolan coming over, and asked with a smile: "Why did you come here, you don't have to protect those officials?"

"Are you still embarrassed to laugh?" Jiang Ruolan glanced at him and said, "The other candidates have all entered, and you are still chatting here, do you know that Master Xuezheng has been angry and wants to cancel your exam qualifications!"

"No!" Zhu Wen was startled.

"Master Xuezheng is meticulous in his life and work, and he hates frivolous students the most, of course you will anger him if you don't take the college exam to heart!" Jiang Ruolan glared at Zhu Wen and said, "If you don't hurry in, or you will be annoyed by Lord Xuezheng and cancel your qualification for the exam, and you will have no place to cry." ”

Now, even Fang Haoran can't be indifferent, since he has come here, how can he give up his efforts because of such a trivial matter.

The two walked to the front of the Tribute Academy, and Xuezheng was really blocking the door, and asked with a sinking face, "What are the names of the two of you?" Why don't you go in for the exam?"

"Small...... The small one is called Zhu ...... Zhu ......" Zhu Wenyi was so nervous that he couldn't speak, and shouted miserably in his heart: It's over, it's over, this time it must have offended the Xuezheng people.

Fang Haoran reached out and patted Zhu Wen lightly on the shoulder, making him settle down. Then he turned his head to look at Xuezheng and said calmly: "His name is Zhu Wen, and he is nervous when he encounters exams." I saw that the exam hadn't started yet, so I asked him to stay outside to calm down and take the exam in the best condition. ”

Xuezheng was slightly surprised in his heart, you must know that the other students were trembling when they saw him, as if they had seen a tiger, but this young man could talk in front of him, and he was not timid at all. This kind of person is either stunned or confident.

He looked at Zhu Wen and asked, "Is that so?"

"Yes...... Yes!" Zhu Wen was slapped by Fang Haoran, and he had already calmed down at this time.

Xuezheng bowed slightly, and said: "If you have a reason, I won't pursue it." The exams are about to start, so let's get in. ”

Looking at the backs of Fang Haoran and Zhu Wen entering, Xuezheng said with a smile: "This student is interesting, he is still in the mood to appease others when the college exam is imminent, but I don't know how his knowledge is, whether he can be admitted to fame!"

When Jiang Ruolan heard this, she chuckled lightly and said, "Master Xuezheng, if he can't pass the fame exam, then no one can pass the exam today!"

"Oh?" Xuezheng was surprised, and asked with great interest, "Are you so confident in him?" You know, if you spread this, you will offend the students in today's exam!"

Jiang Ruolan said confidently: "If it were someone else, I naturally wouldn't dare to boast about this Haikou, but I'm talking about the poet Fang Haoran, who would dare to object to the students of Qiantang Mansion?"

"Fang Haoran!"

Xuezheng's eyes flashed with a gleam, and then his face became strange, and he muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "No wonder it looks a little familiar, it turns out that the little guy has grown so big!"

There are three steps, one sentry, five steps and one post in the tribute courtyard, and the guards are very strict, which shows that the Great Zhou Dynasty attaches great importance to the examination.

Fang Haoran and Zhu Wen's test numbers were one in the east and the other in the west, and the two separated after entering the Gongyuan.

Finding his exam number, two expressionless officials stood there, and one of them stretched out his hand to Fang Haoran.

"Exam cards, paperwork. ”

Fang Haoran first took out the top wooden exam card and identity document from his bag and handed them to one of the officials, and then handed the bookcase to another officer.

The official on the right took the bookcase and looked through it, there were brushes, ink ingots, inkstones, pen holders, pen holders, paperweights, bamboo tubes for water, dry food and other things, the soldier nodded and handed the bookbox to Fang Yun.

The official on the left glanced at the exam card, then looked at the identity document, and after confirming that it was correct, he handed the exam card and document to Fang Haoran and let him in.

Unlike the exams on Earth in the previous life, the exams here are a separate partition for each candidate to prevent them from copying from each other.

It didn't take long for the exam papers to come down and the exam officially opened.

Fang Haoran picked up the exam paper and read it carefully from beginning to end, this was a good habit he had developed in his previous life, so as not to miss the wrong questions.

The exam questions are divided into three parts, namely scriptures, essays, and poems.

The Sutra is the silent writing of passages in books such as "Zhou Li" and "Sacred Word", and at the same time examining the calligraphy of the examination. The reading comprehension of the essay is similar to that of a previous life. Poetry, on the other hand, examines the talents of students.

These are exactly what Fang Haoran understands.

It is not difficult for the other party Haoran, his predecessor was familiar with all kinds of books, plus Fang Haoran is in cultivation, his memory is very strong, and writing books and texts silently is as easy as eating and drinking.

The essay mainly tests the ability of thinking and logic, and it is also difficult for Fang Haoran, who is a cultivator.

Seeing the title of the poem, Fang Haoran smiled, and then picked up the pen and wrote: "Song of Tomorrow"

Tomorrow after tomorrow, tomorrow is so much. I'm going to live tomorrow, and everything will come to naught......

After drying the ink and pressing the exam paper with a ruler, Fang Haoran pushed the door and walked out. The officials outside immediately came in and put Fang Haoran's test paper into a special scroll and took it away.

When Fang Haoran passed by the other examination rooms, many candidates couldn't help but mutter.

"This man is so fast, I admire him. ”

"It's the poet Fang Haoran, no wonder it's so fast. Someone recognized Fang Haoran.

"What's the use of being fast...... "Some candidates said unbalancedly.

Walking out of the examination room area, Fang Yun saw Xuezheng and Jiang Zhifu and two officials sitting in the pavilion looking at him, he didn't come forward to talk, just gave up, and then walked outside the Gongyuan.

"Why did he hand in the papers?" Xuezheng frowned deeply.

"I think he knows that he can't pass the exam, so he gives up on himself!" Governor Jiang laughed proudly.

Xuezheng's face suddenly sank.

At this time, the official who helped Fang Haoran pack up the paper ran over and said hurriedly: "Fang Haoran has already handed in the paper!"

"Show it to me!" Xue Zheng's face sank like water.

Governor Jiang's face was smug and he sneered: "Let's see if the so-called poetic maniac's talent is an exaggeration!"

At the top is a scroll of poems.

Xuezheng glanced at it, and immediately stood up and praised it: "Good poetry!"

"What a poem, let's see it too!" the other two officials also came to be interested.

Jiang Zhifu suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Tomorrow after tomorrow, tomorrow is so much. I'm going to live tomorrow, and everything will come to ......"

Although the words of this poem are simple and straightforward, they have far-reaching meanings, and can be called the wake-up call of my college students. Xuezheng said.

Others chimed in. Don't look at Xuezheng as a third-grade official, but his identity is extremely extraordinary, if Xuezheng wants to use this poem as a wake-up call for students in the Great Zhou Dynasty, then he will definitely be able to do it.

Jiang Zhifu's face was as ugly as eating a fly, and he said unconvinced: "Fang Haoran does have some talent for writing poetry, but we are not only investigating and writing poetry, but more importantly, the holy words and essay analysis ......."

Xuezheng directly interrupted him and said: "If this poem can be promoted throughout the country as a wake-up call for students, what is the fame of a mere talent." ”

Governor Jiang was silent, and he couldn't refute it, he knew that Xuezheng had made a decision, and Fang Haoran was already a sure thing.

"Let's take a look at Fang Haoran's scriptures and essays, I hope it won't disappoint me!" Xuezheng didn't find Jiang Haoran's embarrassment, but looked at Fang Haoran's other test papers with the other two.

"The scriptures are all right...... And this character is also extraordinary, not only is the pen powerful, but I have never seen this font before......"

"Fang Haoran's essay analysis is also all correct, and there are some points in it that I haven't even thought about, it's really whimsical......"

As the admiration continued to sound, Governor Jiang's complexion became more and more ugly, and finally it was as black as if it had been coated with ink.

Fang Haoran didn't know about these episodes, and at this time he had already returned to Qinglian Academy.

"Young Master, why did you come back so early?" Da Yu'er asked with a worried face. She had heard about some candidates who gave up because they knew they wouldn't be able to pass the test.

"Where do you want to go!" Fang Haoran saw through her worries at a glance, and explained with a smile: "The questions for the exam are too simple, I finished it casually, and it's okay to stay in the exam room anyway, why don't you go home for lunch!"

Da Yu'er relieved her heart at this time, and complained slightly: "Young master, the people you hurt are worried about death, but although you have only learned people, young master, you can't be careless!"

"Don't worry, it's okay!" Fang Haoran touched her head and said with a smile: "Is lunch ready, I'm hungry, you go and get me something to eat!"

......

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day of the list.

On this day, a shadow quickly ran into Qinglian Academy and went straight to the back mountain.

"Sister Jiang, why are you here?" Da Yu'er said in surprise.

"What about Fang Haoran, the list has already been released, why doesn't he go to see it?" Jiang Ruolan snorted, "Fortunately, I happened to see it when I passed by, you go and tell Fang Haoran that he took the head of the case, and there will definitely be someone who released the list to congratulate him later, you tell him to prepare!"

"Case leader?" Da Yu'er was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses, and said hurriedly: "The young master has something to go out in the morning, I'll go find him back!"

"Forget it, I don't think he cares about this!" Jiang Ruolan looked helpless, and smiled bitterly in her heart, she knew that Fang Haoran, as a martial arts master, might not attach much importance to Xiucai's fame, but she didn't expect Fang Haoran to care so much about fame, and he didn't even care about the release of the list.
