Chapter 212: The Last Battle

In the spring ploughing season, the farmers work in the fields almost every day.

Only by putting the fields in order can we exchange for food, and there is no time to spend more time outside.

The reasons are not strong.

The day after they left Fucheng with regret, the third session of the prefectural examination was also held.

This is the last exam of the government examination, and once you pass, you will be a child.

This one, the test theory.

There was still a cannon sound, and the gong sounded to wait for the roll call when the candidates lined up in two rows, but everyone almost carried a food box and a bookcase to enter the examination shed.

Due to the fact that this test was held for two consecutive days, you could not enter or go out during the exam, so you should bring your own food, bring your own pen and inkstone, and have more belongings than the previous two sessions.

After being looked through the bookbox and food box, the body was searched, the process was completed, the test number was obtained, the examination room was entered, and after sitting down, the prefect spoke again.

Subsequently, there were officials who issued uniform overnight quilts, and there were officials who carried baskets and distributed candles, water and other things.

After the items were distributed, the test papers sealed with fire paint came.

Uniform policy topics.

There are five questions.

It is here to examine the understanding and views of the candidates who have passed the two levels on the law, current affairs, culture, and official governance.

This thing, for civilian students, is the same as the essay in the second exam.

Due to the limitations of identity, not to mention that there is not much contact with essays and tables, and it is difficult to write brilliantly if I have not seen enough case examples and judgments on legal topics.

However, this strategy is also not difficult for Gu Wenxuan.

In order to deal with the policy questions that will still arise from today and in the college examination, he has put a lot of effort into it.

From frantically memorizing all the current anthologies in his hand and forcing himself to complete one strategy every day, to completing two policy topics every day recently.

During this period, he also memorized the entire set of laws of Daliang, read a lot of Di newspapers, not to mention that he had done several of the policy topics, even if he was not familiar with each other, he was not afraid now.

Rao was like this, and answered a question during the day, during which he only briefly used the dry food he brought, and went to the thatched house once before he finished three questions.

The amount of questions is not large, but the difficulty is to be brilliant.

I rubbed my wrists, waited for the ink to dry, put away the rolls and scratch paper, and used the dry food I brought.

Night is also about to fall, and candles are lit.

The flame is small, not that he dislikes it, and at home at night is not at least four candles lit at once.

With the brightness of this candle, I didn't dare to take out the roll.

He simply finished a policy thesis on the scratch paper, revised a few places, and did not rush to copy it on the answer sheet.

I dipped my hand towel in some water and wiped my face slightly.

Then put away the ink-dried scratch paper, hang it on a high place that would not be drenched even if it rained hard, put it next to the exam paper, and slept.

As he expected, the third watch was awakened by urine in the middle of the night.

With the light of the torch lantern outside, he immediately pulled the small bell and went to the thatched house to release water.

When he came back, he was more sober, lit a pitiful candle, and continued to take out his scratch paper and answer the question.

Before I knew it, it was dawn, just in time to revise the two articles on the scratch paper, and then try to copy the words beautifully to the answer sheet.

Afternoon.

Candidates have handed in their papers.

Gu Wenxuan didn't wait for a quarter of an hour before the end to hand in the papers, and then handed in the papers, and he was still in a trance for a while, and the government test was over?

"What's going on?"

"It's okay."

Even if he knew that he had passed the government exam 100%, he was not sure that he would be in the top three, and before the list was released, Gu Wenxuan would not say that he would win.

Thursday Shun knew his uncle's stinky virtue, and last time he was "okay".

Seeing that Gu Wenxuan still wanted to wait for Da Jiang to come out, he immediately pushed Gu Erzhu to take Gu Wenxuan back first.

Today is the last exam, and there are many candidates who will come out later, who wants to invite them to go in the next few days, and my uncle will be even more difficult to refuse.

At that time, when it was almost time to Shen, Xiaobai came to inform Zhou Banxia as promised.

Zhou Banxia stopped writing and put the copied scriptures out of the room.

Let the cook move, and just wanted to go to the side door to listen to the movement of the carriage coming back outside, Gu Wenxuan came in.

"So early? Just you come back? Tired of it, right? ”

"Fortunately, the quilt smells weird, and I don't know if there are lice and fleas, so I don't dare to cover my body.

I squinted for a while last night, and I couldn't stay in the afternoon, so I came out first. ”

Tut-tut, it's a shame that there is no spring cold, it hasn't rained in the past two days, the weather is warm, don't take the August Township Exam when you go back, let you take the exam for a few days.

"Your father and Uncle Heping still have to wait for Da Jiang and Brother Li'er, let me come back first, and our father will accompany me back and go over." As he spoke, Gu Wenxuan avoided Zhou Banxia's outstretched hand.

You're still a baby, I'm afraid that if you meet a flower shooter, your father will actually send you back to rest assured.

Zhou Banxia smiled, and followed Gu Wenxuan, who was running towards the third courtyard as if fleeing for his life.

As soon as he arrived at the eaves of the wing house, before he entered the small hall, Gu Wenxuan put down the bookcase, "Don't move, there are fleas."

Put it first, wait for Dajiang to come back, and then let Zhiming and them clean up together. ”

Don't talk about this, Zhou Banxia really almost has a food box, and now it's gone, so I want to hand it over to Zhiming and take it to the front stove room.

"Don't worry, the hot water will be delivered immediately." Zhou Banxia deliberately put warm ginseng tea on the table, and his hands with pots and cups were busy handing water.

Gu Wenxuan took a few sips of ginseng tea fiercely, "It's still my daughter-in-law who is smart, and she can be regarded as quenching her thirst." I didn't dare to drink water when I was locked up.

You don't know that the hut stinks, and you can't stay this morning.

I observed, the location of the river is better than mine, far from the thatched house. ”

"You're stinking?"

"No, it's almost fifty or sixty meters apart, and you can't smell it if you don't get close, so it's still good luck.

It's just that he patronizes the river, and it's not good to look around, and I don't know where Brother Li'er is. ”

Listening to this, why is there something wrong? Zhou Banxia was just about to speak, when he heard the movement of his mother-in-law bringing hot water outside, so he had to give up.

"This time, there are obviously a lot fewer candidates, and it should be quite far away from the stinky number.

It is estimated that Dajiang is also coming back soon, so people can bring hot water in and wait. ”

Also.

Seeing Gu Wenxuan enter the bathtub to take a medicinal bath, thinking about it, he was still worried that there were fleas on his body and didn't dare to go to the "main bathroom" bathtub to soak in it, Zhou Banxia nodded knowingly.

As Gu Wenxuan guessed, Da Jiang's return was indeed not slow.

Zhou Banxia asked his mother-in-law to prepare hot water, not only Dajiang, but even Gu Erzhu and Zhou Shun also came back.

No need to ask.

Listening to the movement in front of him, it can be seen that Zhou Changping and Brother Li'er, father and son, also came back together, and the two children looked very good in the exam.

"It should work. Five policy theories, three of which have been practiced repeatedly, and have also been reviewed by Zhou Xiucai, Bai Juren, and Zhou Daren.

There are two questions left, change the soup but not the medicine, depending on how the personal writing is, there can be something brilliant in writing, can it make the examiner's eyes shine......"
