At this moment, the east is only slightly white, but the lights on the streets near the county government are flickering and crowded. By the time Chang Jin arrived, there were no less than 2,000 people gathered here.

Thousands of people who went to the exam, accompanied the exam, and did small business gathered together, and it was very lively.

It can be seen that most of the candidates have nervous and hesitant colors on their faces, and even when some people talk to their peers, their voices become incoherent.

It's no wonder, after all, it's the moment to decide your own fate, except for a very few people, who can really relax.

Chang Jin's state of mind was very peaceful, and he quietly released his divine sense to observe. Although faintly suppressed by the county officials, he can still see the luck above everyone's heads. As he guessed, most of these people were gray and white, and only a few had a trace of red, and what surprised him was that Song Jiechuan, nearly half of the luck on his head was occupied by red. Such a character, it turns out that he doesn't just rely on his father's Yu Yin, no wonder he can get Zhao County's favor.

After waiting for about a stick of incense, the vermilion gate of the county government of Tongqu County rumbled open. Seeing this movement, the noisy crowd around suddenly quieted down.

Immediately after that, a loud shout of opening the road came out, and I saw several officials in soap clothes divided into two lines, holding water and fire sticks majestically opening the way out.

Behind this class of officials is Zhao Shouren, who is wearing a black gauze hat and an official uniform.

He stood still in the doorway, glanced at the crowd in front of him, and nodded slightly.

The head of the official team immediately reacted and slammed the gong in his hand.

"When Chang - When Chang - "

As the gong sounded, the surrounding officials quickly dispersed, scolding everyone to retreat, clearing a clearing of several zhang squares.

This Chang Jin is indeed outstanding!!

When Qingshan Town worshiped the river god, a scholar named Chang Jin left a deep impression on Zhao Zhixian. It is precisely because of this that he will secretly reveal the question to the other party. Afterwards, Zhao Zhixian also regretted it a little, for fear that when the other party got carried away, he would publicize the topic.

At that time, he already had a plan in his heart, if there were indeed similar rumors flowing, Zhao Zhixian would naturally change the topic.

Later, he didn't hear any news, so he relieved himself and gradually left this scholar behind.

Who knew that he was just casually glancing at the candidate opposite, even if the lights were on, he still recognized the other party immediately. Although these students are all wearing white shirts, Chang Jin's tall body stands in it, giving people a feeling of standing out from the crowd, which is unforgettable.

Such a character dared to test the poison in front of the River Temple.

Such a character may really be the luck of my Confucianism, and I hope not to disappoint this county...... Zhao Shouren groaned slightly, and then withdrew his gaze.

When his subordinates finished cleaning up, he cleared his throat and began to preach: "On the orders of the Lord of this prefecture, the county order is now read out by the order of the county to read out the rules of the Tongqu County examination! All the Confucian children who refer to it must listen clearly, during the examination, you must strictly abide by the rules of the county examination, and you must not make noise and frolic, do not engage in cheating, and do not talk to each other. ”

Zhao Shouren talked a lot about it, and what he said was nothing more than the way of a saint, and then praised the wisdom of the Son of Heaven, the emperor's grace, etc., as well as the discipline of the examination room and the number of examinations.

The previous ones are all nonsense on the scene, and only the exam sessions need the attention of children.

The county examination belongs to the most elementary level of the imperial examination preliminary examination, so there is a great degree of freedom, and the number of examinations is determined by the county order. It's usually five, but there are four, six, and even seven.

However, Zhao Shouren obviously did not want to torture the candidates too much, and only chose four events, namely the main scene, the first recovery, the second recovery, and the face recovery. Generally speaking, the last three are all going through the motions, and as long as you are in the main exam, you can obtain the qualification for the government exam, and you don't have to go through the initial or re-re-examination. Of course, the last scene is indispensable.

The so-called face-to-face review is to inspect the admitted candidates in person by the county magistrate, which is mainly to prevent some scholars who do not have real materials from cheating in the exam and trying to get through the test in confusion.

After Zhao County's order was finished, hundreds of students who had referred to it lined up under the guidance of the officials and entered the county government together.

While waiting, Chang Jin saw a pale old man in the crowd, who originally thought that this person was accompanying his children and grandchildren to the exam. When he took out the exam card, Chang Jin knew that the other party was the same as himself, and he was also here to participate in the county exam.

In my previous life, I read that there was a poor scholar Fan Jin in "The History of Confucianism", who had taken the exam dozens of times since he was in his twenties, and finally he was fifty-four years old, and he was still a "child", and he still continued to take the exam.

Now seeing this pale old man, Chang Jin knows that the description in the book is true. Although the Tao is holy in this world, it is still a channel for the majority of Confucian students to gain fame. After all, the immortal path is slim and difficult to pursue. Although the imperial examination is difficult, there is a way to go.

Admitted to the show, wearing a "headscarf", wearing a "blue shirt", and the family is exempt from taxes and servitude, so it will make people crazy. If you are admitted to the tribute school, not only will the court grant you an official position, but even your family will be able to enjoy it.

Just like Fan Jin, he immediately became the 'star in the sky' in the mouth of his father-in-law Hu Butcher after the middle move, and since then there is a farmhouse, money, and slaves.

"The world is bustling, all for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit"

The so-called study and learning, in the final analysis, is nothing more than the four words "fame and fortune".

Zhao Xianling waited in front of the examination shed first, and there were several scribes standing next to him.

At the signal of Zhao County's order, the scribe began to roll call according to the roster, verify the candidate's body, and conduct a body search to prevent entrainment. Of course, this kind of body search is just a formality, and it copes with things, and it can't be compared with the township test at all.

Confirm that the candidate himself is correct before entering the examination shed door, which also has an auspicious name, Dragon Gate.

However, even though the inspection was very rough, the degree was not fast, and it took nearly half an hour for hundreds of candidates to be put into the examination booth one by one.

It was relatively early to enter Changjin, so he naturally took the opportunity to pick a seat with a good position.

Tongqu County is a commercial and commercial country, and the literary style is naturally prosperous, and there are about five or six hundred people in the county this time. With so many people taking the exam at the same time, it is difficult to find a suitable exam venue alone, let alone desks, chairs, benches and other utensils for writing.

In ordinary poor counties, most of them have built a temporary examination shed. It is said to be an examination shed, but the candidates are separated by a wooden fence, and there is no roof for shading the sun and rain.

As you can imagine, if it rains suddenly, it will have to interrupt the exam.

As for the tables and chairs, candidates need to bring their own. It's just that many candidates are from remote rural areas, so it is naturally impossible to bring bulky tables and chairs into the city. So when it's time for the exam, there will be shrewd businessmen who will take out tables and chairs for rent. There are also candidates who can't even pay the rent, so they can only ask some shops to borrow it shyly.

The tables and chairs borrowed were varied and varied, which was not bad. Some candidates who start late can't borrow tables and chairs, so they can only pay attention to the butcher shop board and door panel.

After an exam, some candidates were covered in greasy. Someone wrote a limerick poem to describe such a situation: "The national examination is too magnificent, how many scholars do the lobby, the oil board is carried as the test case, and the clothes are shiny after the exam." ”

When people can't help but laugh after reading it, there is a trace of sourness and sigh in their hearts.

Compared with these, the children of Tongqu County are much happier, there is a special examination shed in the county office, and there are all kinds of tables, chairs and benches, candidates only need to bring the four treasures of the study room plus the food box into it.

Now less than half of the students have entered the examination booth, and it is far from the time to announce the questions, Chang Jin was a little bored for a while, turned his head and looked at the thin black candidate sitting opposite, only to see that this person's hands were trembling when sorting out the pen and ink, and one of the ink splashed on the desk without paying attention.

This...... The title hasn't been announced yet, so is it so nervous...... Ay!

He had no choice but to look back at his answer sheet.

A total of 11 pages, the first page is the cover, on which is the stamp, written with the examination number, name, age, appearance characteristics, as well as household registration, three generations of resumes, guarantors and so on. The last 10 pages are the place to answer the questions, and the 14 red lines are used horizontally and vertically to form a grid to make it easier for the examiner to check the number of words.

After all the candidates entered the venue, the sky was already bright, and the guards shouted loudly: "Seal the door, lock it!" The door of the examination shed was slammed shut, and the inside and outside were isolated into two worlds.

Zhao Xianling did not waste time, and wrote the exam questions on a piece of horizontal axis rice paper - a current essay and a test poem.

Seeing the title of the article at that time, Chang Jin's heart suddenly relaxed, and sure enough, it was the title in the fourth book "Compassion and Learning", "Studying in the Ancients at the Age of Forty".

Chang Jin is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, so it is naturally not difficult to make up for this topic.

"Forty years of study in the ancients, fifty years of study in heaven and earth, and the love of the world. ”

The exam time is one day, and for Chang Jin, who has already been thinking about it in his belly, this time is a bit too long.
