Prefectural exam
On the day of the house test, Yulin Niang prepared all kinds of fruit offerings early in the morning, let Yulin change clothes and bathe, and then burn a furnace of high incense before the confession, Yulin and Niang knelt on the ground and bowed their heads, Yulin Niang recited words in her mouth, her expression was solemn and respectful, Yulin was also infected, and she was busy kowtowing to worship, and the tiger girl was against the nonsense of the past, and sat quietly in the back.
After burning high incense and paying tribute to the ancestors, Yulin carried the bookcase that had been prepared a long time ago, said goodbye to his mother and met with a few classmates, and went to the Gongyuan together.
When they came to the gate of the Gongyuan, many children from outside the palace had already lined up and walked towards the gate one after another. At the door, a small group of soldiers stood in line, and two officials from the examination room were checking the boxes and cages and other examination equipment carried by the students one by one, and some soldiers were to be strictly searched.
When it was Yulin's turn, things were going very well, and when they entered the gate of the Gongyuan, there were still soldiers standing solemnly on both sides, holding knives and guns.
The students who entered the door were all standing in a small open space outside the middle gate, the scene was silent, Yulin saw two officials sitting at the two tables in front of him, presumably the chief examiner and the deputy chief examiner this time, but I don't know which one is the prefect and which is the Xuezheng adult.
When all the students entered the gate and all stood neatly in the small empty field, the prefect sitting at the front of the table stood up and read out the decree of the provincial ministry and the court, to the effect that the emperor felt that the country's talents were withering, and that the government and the academy were united in the children's examination, and the scope of recruitment was expanded, and the number of students was increased.
On the other side, the deputy history of academic administration focused on the arrangement of examination seating, examination discipline, etc. After the completion, there are soldiers to carry a large offering case, on which all kinds of offerings such as pigs and sheep have been prepared, full of a large case, in front of the tablet of heaven and earth, gods and ghosts, etc., the two adults come forward to bow down on incense, and the students below also worship with the ceremony, after the ceremony, there are examiners to issue number plates to the students.
In a few moments, with the "boom, boom" two cannon sounds, all the students lined up into the middle door, according to the number plate to find their own number room, waiting for all the students to sit down in the number room, there are examiners shouted: "hair roll", each row of responsible examiners is busy, hair roll has been completed, and "boom" a cannon sound, the examiner shouted: "start the exam".
Yulin calmed down in his room, and when he saw the test papers, his eyes lit up, these test questions were clearly on par with the content he usually reviewed, and individual students were also prepared.
Three in a row, the historical theory, the scriptures, the word fu, Yulin test are relatively smooth, it is really like a god help, the pen goes dragon snake, and the pen is constantly wonderful. In the end, a strategy for the additional test, to write two articles, Yulin selected its essence from the many examination papers in his mind, selected its quatrains, and added his own current political opinions.
After the Yulin workers finished copying, they handed in the papers in advance and walked out of the examination room, breathed in the fresh air outside, and looked up at the sky, as if they were in another world. Suddenly felt that his whole body was sore, and his mind was swollen, so he walked home, but turned to Guo Fuzi halfway.
Guo Fuzi was studying in the hall, and when he saw Yulin coming, he smiled happily, and did not wait for Yulin to see the courtesy, so he pulled him to ask how the exam was, and Yulin explained the general situation of the exam in detail, and took out a draft of the strategy for the master to judge.
The master looked at it and said with a smile: "The previous historical treatise on the scriptures is not to mention, only more refined than the plain, these two policy articles alone are also unprecedented, the arguments are clear, the arguments are comprehensive and sufficient, there are both sources of reason and law, and there are detailed rules for implementation, and there are indeed excellent insights on the current current affairs, if you do it, it will have effect and benefit, it is really a rare good prescription for the world, rare, rare, it is difficult for you a young man who learns to have this opinion!" Hahahaha..."
Hearing this, Yulin was overjoyed, only he understood that the rest was just Song Yingjie and Guo Fuzi's thoughts of saving the world and saving the people and the wisdom of foresight for the situation.
