Chapter 399: No name on the list
In the morning exam, no one 'handed in' the papers in advance. , the latest chapter access: Π¨Π¨Π¨.79xs.Π‘ΠΎΠ .
When Liu Xiu was inspecting, he found that most of the people were stuck on the fourth math problem.
The question of "chicken" and rabbit in the same cage is a topic in "Sun Tzu's Sutra", which was written during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, which was more than 200 years later. This question is placed in this era, if you know how to do it, you can still 'feel' out of the 'door' and find a way to solve it, but if you don't know how to do it, it will be a little difficult.
Therefore, this is the question that many people hesitate to decide.
When it came time to 'hand in' the papers, there were still countless scholars who could not give answers, and in the end they could only be empty. Because if you can't calculate it, you can't give an accurate answer.
There are also some people who give the right answer, but there are no steps. Because this answer is a hypothesis one by one, and then the answer is tested upwards.
Very few people have come up with the real answer.
After everyone left the examination room, the discussion continued, one by one, and the eyebrows flew and danced.
After Liao Hua, Huo Jun, Yang Hao and others left, they went straight to the place where they fell back to rest and prepare for the afternoon test.
The afternoon test was carried out on time.
All the scholars got the exam question, where is Jingzhou Road?
This question is easy to answer, but it is not easy to answer in depth. For two hours, each of them worked hard to write their own ideas on the manuscript.
At the end of the two-hour exam, everyone's test papers were collected, and all the reference scholars dispersed.
Five days!
All scholars need to wait for five days, and after five days, the list will be released and the admitted people will be announced.
These five days were waiting and torment for scholars, but for officials such as Yi and Kuailiang, they were already very busy. Because Liu Xiu 'handed over' all the things about reviewing the files to the two of them.
Yi, Kuailiang, Pang Degong, Sima Hui, Huang Chengyan, Xiangyang County Order, County Cheng, County Lieutenant and dozens of other Xiangyang Confucians, all gathered in the county government to read the papers, and then divided the high and low.
On the morning of October 24, the sixth day of grading, only a quarter of an hour before the hour, all the test papers were finally sorted out.
Today, it's time to announce the results.
But now, I've just finished the review, and it's too late to deal with other things.
Yi said: "I have worked hard for five days and six nights, and during this time, all the princes have eaten and drunk in the county government and have never left. The Xiangyang County Commander took the princes down to rest, and when the list of all the shortlisted personnel was announced today, and after the matter was properly handled, the lord held a banquet separately to thank the princes. β
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly said that it was not hard.
Before coming, everyone received money, and when they got benefits, it was naturally different.
Yi Yuan turned his gaze, looked at Kuai Liang, and said, "Zirou, time is urgent, it is estimated that countless scholars are waiting now." In doing so, you take a list of those who have passed the examination and immediately post it outside the county office in order to appease the hearts of the scholars. The old man took a list and immediately sent it to the lord. Originally, this should have been consulted by the lord first, but now it seems that there is no time left, so I can only do this. β
Kuai Liang nodded and said, "Yi Beijia is thoughtful, so I'll do it." β
The two went in two lines, Yi took the shortlisted list to the state governor's office, and Kuai Liang, with the assistance of the county soldiers, began to post the shortlisted list.
Outside the county office, there were already scholars in a circle.
All the people waited, waited for this moment.
It is a great opportunity for the scholars of the Han 'Gate' or the children of the family. If you are on the list, it means that you have entered the Jingzhou officialdom since then and walked to the pinnacle of life.
"Crunch!"
The big 'door' of the county government opened with a bang.
In an instant, the outside of the county office became lively.
Liao Hua stood in the crowd, also looking nervous, and as the ranking came out, Liao Hua squeezed in, looking down from the top of his head. But after looking at the top ten people, Liao Hua's heart sank to the bottom.
Top 10 no!
Liao Hua patiently thought about it and looked down again.
Neither in the top twenty!
Rao is like this, Liao Hua still has no heart to die. Because there are hundreds of people on the list. It's a pity that after Liao Hua read it all, he didn't find his own name.
Liao Hua is very confident in his answer.
Even if it was a math problem, he did the answer and gave the correct answer.
As for the fifth question in the afternoon, Liao Hua was also clearly organized and gave a detailed strategy.
In Liao Hua's view, even though his answer sheet can't enter the top three, the top ten is safe, but the current result is that he hasn't even entered the top ten, which is really disappointing.
"I thought that this time it would be fair and just, but it seems that it is also a pool of muddy waters. β
In Liao Hua's heart, he couldn't help but sigh lightly.
Liao Hua left the county government in despair and went to the inn where he lived. Walking outside his room, Liao Hua's eyes showed hesitation, and guilt appeared on his face.
"Alas......"
With a light sigh, Liao Hua knocked on the 'door' of the room.
After a while, the 'door' of the room opened, and a young 'girl' opened the 'door'. This 'woman' has a medium posture and 'color', but she is born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and her demeanor is full-footed, and there is a bookish air flow 'exposed'.
This 'female' son is Liao Hua's wife Zhou.
Seeing Liao Hua, Zhou hurriedly welcomed Liao Hua in.
Closing the 'door', Zhou saw that Liao Hua had a sad look between her eyebrows, so she understood, and she didn't take the initiative to ask, but just poured a cup of tea for Liao Hua and put it next to Liao Hua.
Liao Hua said: "Madam, I fell off the list, there are more than 100 people on the list, and there is no name on me." β
Zhou smiled and said: "The husband's failure is not the fault of the husband, but the state minister's inability to discern talents." β
Liao Hua shook his head and said, "Madam, I don't accept it, do you know? In the examination room that day, Liu Jingzhou walked in front of me, and he personally said that I wrote well and said that he was optimistic about me. But why is this the way it is?"
Zhou said: "Husband, Liu Jingzhou is optimistic about you, but after all, he is not the one who reads the papers. Perhaps, the husband's paper does not conform to the wishes of the person who reads the paper. β
Liao Hua continued: "I have been studying hard for decades, and I am unwilling to go back to this gray person. β
Zhou said: "What's unwilling? Even if you are unwilling, your husband can't solve it now." Husband, instead of feeling sorry for himself, it is better to work hard now. As the saying goes, victory is not arrogant, defeat is not discouraged. The husband is off the list this time, and there will always be a next time. Moreover, there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky, and perhaps the people on the list are indeed talented. β
After Liao Hua heard this, he said, "Madam, thank you for your comfort. Madame was born in the name of 'Men', everyone is beautiful, but she suffers with me, it is my fault that makes Mrs. suffer. β
There was not the slightest complaint on Zhou's face, on the contrary, his eyes were even more firm, and he said: "The husband is talented, both civil and military, and he will definitely be able to 'show' his head in the future." As the so-called heaven will descend on the people, they must first suffer their minds and strain their muscles and bones. The suffering of the husband now is all for the sake of accumulation in the future. β
"Madame!"
Liao Hua listened to Zhou's comforting words, and felt a sense of 'excitement' in his heart.
If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?
It's a pity that he fell off the list and failed to give Zhou a better environment.
Zhou smiled slightly and continued: "The matter has come to this, husband, let's clean up, today, we will leave for Zhonglu County." The husband temporarily returned to Wenshu in Zhonglu County, and then waited for the opportunity. β
Liao Hua thought for a while and said, "Madam, can you wait a little longer?" Let's leave in the afternoon." I, I'm still not reconciled. What if, what if it's missed, and there's something to add later?"
Zhou saw her husband's expression, but she couldn't bear to hit again. Nodding, Zhou said, "Everything is up to the husband." β
Liao Hua smiled miserably, then took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and continued to read the book.
