In the blink of an eye, it is the day of the August exams. On this day, there was a crowd of people at the entrance of the examination room, and Yu Yinqiao accompanied Sun Zhaoyuan to the door, and whispered: "Sun Zhaoyuan, you have to fight for anger, I am waiting for your good news." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "Little exam, don't be so nervous, you go back first, and come to pick me up in three hours." This kind of exam could have been completed in an hour, but the rules of the exam room meant that you couldn't go out early, so you had to sleep inside. ”

Yu Yinqiao said: "Don't think so, these exams have stumped countless people, and those who can pass will take one out of twenty." If you look at the thousands of candidates here, only 100 of them can pass. Don't be careless. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "Good students relax and will definitely give you a solution." After speaking, Sun Zhaoyuan entered the examination room.

According to the rules of the examination room, in order to prevent cheating with cheat sheets, all candidates must take a shower and change their clothes and change into special clothes for the exam before entering the examination room.

Sun Zhaoyuan took off his clothes and went into the bathroom. I don't want a twenty-year-old man to bump into Sun Zhaoyuan in the bathroom. The man said, "I walk well, and I don't have long eyes." Sun Zhaoyuan didn't get angry with him, just smiled slightly and walked away.

After wearing the special clothes for the exam, Sun Zhaoyuan was taken to the examination room, which is a small cubicle compartment that separates the candidates, and every ten compartments, there is an examiner to monitor to prevent plagiarism.

Not long after, the exam paper was issued, and Sun Zhaoyuan looked at the question, and the first question was from the Analects, and he asked for an essay with "no two passes".

This question is very simple, Sun Zhaoyuan directly put pen to paper, and his thoughts flowed, and he wrote vividly how to think about his own mistakes and no longer make mistakes.

The second question comes from the change of the emperor of the previous dynasty, and the question requires the emperor of the previous dynasty to write an edict of enthronement. This question seems simple, but in fact, it is full of murderous opportunities.

At that time, the emperor rebelled and killed his two brothers and forced his father to abdicate.

Sun Zhaoyuan pondered: If you want to write this edict, you must throw the pot to the slain brother, saying that he two plotted to usurp the throne and plotted against him, my emperor for the safety of the previous dynasty, righteous annihilation, and my father because of my rescue work, deeply moved, and considered that he was old, can not overwork, so he passed the throne to me, although my emperor repeatedly resigned, but my father did not allow, I really can't shirk, for the prosperity of the world, I have to accept the position of the Son of Heaven. In this way, the act of killing his brother and forcing his father can be reversed into a righteous and bright image of the people in the world who have to kill their brother to succeed to the throne.

After the examination was completed, he immediately turned his thoughts into pen and ink, and in a short time, the edict was written.

The last question is a policy question, and when Sun Zhaoyuan looked at the question, he was sweating behind him. The topic is the Yanfu case, asking if you are the prefect of Yanfu, how to avoid the bandit siege tragedy.

If he hadn't been in the examination room, Sun Zhaoyuan would have thought that someone was planning to take him as a confession.

Sun Zhaoyuan took a few deep breaths, forced himself to calm down, and said: If there are bandits attacking the city, and there is no natural disaster at this time, it will be a man-made disaster. It must be that the officials of this city are seriously corrupt, causing the people to have no money, and even the bandits can't rob the money on the road, they really can't, they have no way to live, and they are resentful, so they attack the government at the risk of killing the nine tribes, so only the government has money. If I am the prefect of Yanfu, I must prevent the slightest slightest, and stop the wind of corruption from the root, so that the people will not have no money, and they will all go to the mountains to become bandits, and they will not be able to rob the money, and the bottom of the kettle will be drawn, and the people will have a way to live, and the bandits will have a way to live, and they will not take the crime of the nine clans to attack the city.

The writing and thinking are completed, and the ink is just a moment, but in an hour, all the questions are answered.

After answering, suddenly a head poked out from next door, it turned out to be the man who hit the person just now, and the man whispered: "Brother Tai, I forgot who did 'no two mistakes' from." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan didn't want to provoke right and wrong, so he just pretended not to hear it. The examiner came over at this time and saw the man's probe, but he pretended not to see it.

When the man saw that Sun Zhaoyuan ignored him, he said, "Good boy." Remember you. ”

Half an hour later, Sun Zhaoyuan was half asleep, half awakened, sneezed a lot, leaned out most of his body, and actually saw the examiner throw a paper ball to the man next door, and thought: "This man's background is not ordinary, and he can actually get through the examiner." ”

The exam is completed and all candidates have come out. Yu Yinqiao was at the door of the examination room, and when he saw Sun Zhaoyuan, he ran over with a smile and said, "How did you do in the exam?" ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "I've seen Mrs. Xie Yuan." ”

Yu Yin Qiao smiled: "Don't mess around. ”

At this time, the man who hit the person brought a few family members over and said, "You slut, you dare to ignore me." Do you know who I am? ”

Sun Zhaoyuan arched his hand and said, "Dare to ask who Brother Tai is?" ”

The man said: "My name is Qian Yinan, and Qian is really my uncle." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said in his heart: No wonder you can get through the examiner, who was originally a relative of a high-ranking official.

Sun Zhaoyuan said with a smile: "It turned out to be Brother Qian, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

Qian Yinan said: "Disrespectful to your mother-in-law." I ask you, why didn't you say yes when I called you just now? ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "I was in the examination room just now, and I was afraid that I would be seen by the examiner, so I didn't dare to answer you." ”

Qian Yinan said: "I'm a person who must be a jinshi, you don't even bother with me, do you know that you, a person from the imperial examination, can't get in." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan's heart is in Yong'an Prefecture, I may not be afraid of you.

Sun Zhaoyuan said with a smile: "In that case, let's listen to it." With that, he took Yu Yin Qiao away.

Qian Yinan was ignored again, and he was even more angry, and said: "You just wait, so that you can't be lifted within ten years." ”

Yu Yin Qiao turned around and said, "Where did the biting dog come from, do you think this world belongs to your Qian family?" ”

Qian Yinan's anger in his heart was about to erupt out of his chest, not thinking that now was an important moment for the imperial examination, and he couldn't delay Zhongjinshi in a mess, so he had to beat the two of them violently before he could relieve his anger.

According to the rules of the department, the chief examiner of the township examination is the minister of Beijing sent by the Son of Heaven, and this section of Yong'an Prefecture happened to appoint Qian Zhen, the secretary of the ministry, as the chief examiner, but the money really went halfway, and suddenly fell ill and recuperated on the road.

According to the rules, it is the governor of this province who takes over the post of chief examiner, marks the papers, and takes the list of applicants.

Sun Zhaoyuan had already visited Wang Youming's mansion before, and Wang Youming knew that Sun Zhaoyuan was taking the exam. The candidate's paper will be pasted with his name, and the paper will also be re-transcribed to prevent his handwriting from being recognized, but if Wang Youming wants to help Sun Zhaoyuan, it is still a simple matter.

But Wang Youming felt that it was completely unnecessary. That Sun Zhaoyuan, Wang Youming is the right person, his mind is delicate, his knowledge is profound, and it is easy to get a fame.

However, in January, all the examination papers have been read.

When the list was released, Wang Youming took out a test paper and said: "The rest of the test papers meet the question of the edict of the former emperor of the dynasty, most of the candidates are singing praises of virtue, and the appointment of the emperor of the former dynasty is not allowed by my emperor." Only this answer, completely with the heart of the Emperor's eyes, to say what the Emperor wants to say, what he wants to do, is really commendable, if, not wrong, I know who did this answer. ”

The deputy examiner was Yang Keying, the waiter of the Ministry of Officials, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Lord Wang, it's strange that you can still guess who did it." ”

Wang Youming said: "Lord Yang doesn't know, in this exam, there is a genius boy named Sun Zhaoyuan, who is well-read, and he is very talented. I guess the article was done by him. ”

Yang Keying was taken aback and said, "Sun Zhaoyuan? ”

Wang Youming said: "Lord Yang also knows? ”

Yang Keying said: "But I don't know." ”

How could Yang Keying not know. That Qian Yinan is very familiar with him, and has visited him privately, saying that he answered the questions, and even explained to him: "If Lord Yang sees a candidate named Sun Zhaoyuan, he must let him fall off the list and relieve the hatred in my heart." ”

After Wang Youming finished speaking, he tore off the name of the paste, not who Sun Zhaoyuan was, and immediately said: "This test paper is set to be the test of Jinke Township, does Lord Yang have any opinions?" ”

This Yang Keying is just a deputy examiner, and the chief examiner has appointed Xie Yuan, and if he has any opinions, he is not boring, so he smiled and said: "No opinion, I also think that this answer is very good, and talents are rare." ”

When Yang Keying went back to her residence, she told Qian Yinan about these things one by one, and Qian Yinan gritted his teeth and was very angry. Yang Keying said: "The virtuous nephew doesn't need to be too careful, I have exchanged views with Lord Wang Youming, and your test paper is set to be the second in the current Kexiang test." ”

Qian Yinan said in his heart: "Rao is this level for you, wait until the capital will try, and then give you the color." ”
