As the most important examination, the chief and deputy examiners of the township examination were appointed by the imperial court and presided over by a temporary body formed by local government officials.

On the sixth day of the first month, the examiners entered the court, and first held a banquet on the curtain, and all the internal and external curtain officials had to go to the banquet.

After the banquet, the inner curtain officer enters the inner curtain of the back hall, the invigilator seals the door, the inner and outer curtain officials do not interact with each other, and the inner curtain official cannot have anything to do with him except for reviewing the test papers.

As for the township examination, there are three sessions, each of which lasts for three days, and all three need to enter the examination room one day in advance, that is, the eighth, eleventh, and fourteenth days of the first month, and the day after the exam.

As the examination room for the township examination, a large plaque with the word "Gongyuan" is hung in the middle of the entrance of the examination room.

The place where candidates take the exam is called the examination booth.

As for the examination shed, it is also called "No. Room", which is one by one, as a special for candidates in the Gongyuan.

The "examination room" and "dormitory" for answering the questionnaire and eating and lodging.

The imperial examination is a single room for each candidate.

For other state capitals where the imperial examination is not developed, they may have only entered the examination shed for the first time in the township examination.

But for places where the imperial examination is developed, in order to adapt, simulate the township examination.

In the previous examinations, some scholars entered the examination booth to take the exam.

After all, there is also a "mock examination" in later generations, and the state capital with a developed imperial examination attaches great importance to the cultivation of talents, and in order for the candidates to play normally, many aspects will naturally be taken into account.

You must know that the performance of local officials and education are also inseparable.

If the champion can be spent here, it will also be a very dignified thing for the local magistrate.

Of course, compared to the county examination, the government examination and the hospital examination.

The township test seems to be too much more formal.

The more formal, the more strict.

In addition to strict body searches to prevent candidates from hiding "entrainment" on their bodies.

When candidates enter the examination booth, they must lock the door.

During the test, the candidates were not allowed to come out until the end of the test.

You must know that in the previous exams, candidates were still able to go out to the toilet.

However, in the township test, there is no such possibility.

As for the examination room, it is very narrow, with only two wooden planks on the upper and lower boards, the upper board is used as a table for writing answer sheets, and the lower board is used as a chair, and the two boards are used as a bed when sleeping at night.

There is also a charcoal fire and a candle for the candidates in the examination shed. Charcoal fires can be used both for heating and cooking.

Candidates are isolated from the outside world during the exam, and they have to solve the problem of eating by themselves.

The invigilator only cares about cheating in the exam, and the invigilator does not ask about the other actions of the candidates in the number room.

There is only one principle, and you are not allowed to issue an exam number.

After a rigorous search, few of them entered the examination booth.

Add to that such strict restrictions on personal freedom, and the possibility of cheating is very small.

Of course, these are all things that the makers of the imperial examination system need to consider.

For Huang Tinghui, the most unbearable thing for him is that "eating, drinking, and Lazar" are all in a small space.

You must know that the candidates eat, drink and lazar for nine days and six nights, and the area is only 1.33 square meters.

Therefore, the township examination is not only a test of talent, but also a test of will, which is also the source of the saying that "three exams are grinding into ghosts" in the township examination.

But after thinking about it, if Gong Fatzi came to participate in the township exam.

The "stinky number" he had in his heart was gone!

Thinking like this, Huang Tinghui actually laughed.

This scene stunned the other candidates.

When others came to take the imperial examination, they all looked serious, with a restrained and serious face, and even many people felt extremely nervous.

This guy in front of him is so good that he can laugh out loud.

It's really big-hearted!

"Who is this guy, the exam is about to begin, and he can laugh out loud!"

Some candidates asked very puzzled.

Over the years, Huang Tinghui can also be regarded as the kind of person who is famous.

Many candidates are also familiar with Huang Tinghui.

Therefore, after this candidate who didn't know Huang Tinghui asked this question, other candidates replied on the spot, "Don't you know him either?" ”

"The head of the hospital examination!"

"He's a strong contender for this township test solution!"

Hearing the explanation of the candidates around him, the candidates suddenly came to their senses.

"Oh!"

"Is this person's name Huang Tinghui?"

"No wonder, no wonder!"

"No wonder he's so confident, if I have his level!"

"You can laugh out loud, too!"

Listening to everyone's discussions, Huang Tinghui was also very speechless.

I'm just thinking of something funny.

Can this also make them think so much?

Huang Tinghui soon came to his exam number.

After putting down the food box and other things, Huang Tinghui also took a deep breath.

Since the founding of the country, since the first imperial examination.

The list is opened every three years, and 300 jinshi are admitted out of 3,000 people.

As for the state capitals, they also compete in the township test every three years.

In this township test, 90 of the 3,000 students were selected.

The difficulty can be imagined.

Some people even say that the township test is more difficult than the Hui test.

After all, one is one out of ten.

One is three out of a hundred!

As long as you are a person who can count, you will know how difficult the township test is.

Therefore, after entering the examination room, even Huang Tinghui, who was as stable as an old dog, did not dare to be careless.

And this is also the first time that Huang Tinghui has attached so much importance to an examination since he took the imperial examination.

After all, this is the most critical step in the carp jumping into the dragon gate.

If you win the lift, it is equivalent to entering another class.

If there is no Zhongju person, even Fan Jin's father-in-law and other butchers dare to mock Fan Jin, who is a showman.

Isn't this treatment just heaven and earth?

After several years of hard work, I finally reached the fork of fate.

Once in the examination room, candidates are not eligible to leave the examination room.

As for other things, they were naturally delivered by someone.

And these special people are hand-picked by the examiner, so it is impossible for them to have any contact with the candidates.

From this point of view, the township examination is worthy of being an extremely important examination.

Almost every link has been done to the extreme.

It is to ensure absolute fairness and justice, so that talented scholars can pass the examination.

To some extent, this is one of the few opportunities in the life of a scholar who can experience extreme fairness.

It can no longer be experienced before, or after the temple exam.

It's like entering society before the college entrance examination and after the college entrance examination.

It is a truth that students can not face absolute fairness.

Huang Tinghui took two candles and some charcoal from the hand, and thanked him.

He sat quietly in the examination room.

It wasn't until the test papers were handed out that the cloud board was knocked.

The township test, which decided the fate of thousands of scholars, finally kicked off at this moment.

And this exam also determined the future fate of Huang Tinghui and the little girl.
