Chapter 328: The Coming Trial

A spring thunder sounded, and everything was revived.

After the sting, the weather finally moved from cold winter to spring, and the hibernating animals were awakened. The sting in the 24 solar terms is originally intended to be stinging, the weather is getting warmer, and there is gradually spring thunder.

At this time, peach blossoms are red, pear blossoms are white, and the sun is shining. The talented and beautiful people in the capital like to go on an outing together at this time.

However, for those who have already made a name for themselves, the recent outings have nothing to do with them.

Because there are still two days left, which is the day of the spring meeting!

No matter who you are, no matter how confident you are, it is impossible to completely relax at this time. Even if you don't want to be too tired before the exam and want to keep your best spirit during the nine days of the exam, you shouldn't go out and play at this time.

At most, that is, rest early every day and don't stay up late.

But reading books and reviewing homework is still a must every day.

Otherwise, if you completely let yourself go at this time, empty your mind, and when you arrive at the examination room, your mind is really blank, there is nothing, and there is no place to cry.

The exam is the same as practicing martial arts, you always have to practice from time to time, and if you are lazy for two or three days, your hands and feet will be rusty.

Therefore, no matter how good the spring is, the people in Yingtianfu have no intention of watching, so they can only retreat at home and prepare intensively.

Because today's son is not in good health, and the dynasty is ill-fated, so this year's Spring Festival test is not an ordinary Zhengke, but an additional rare 'Enke', Zhengke and Enke are carried out together.

This year's Jinshi admission will be 100 more than normal, a full 400 people!

In other words, this year is the best chance to pass the Jinshi exam, and if you don't pass the exam this year, it will be even more difficult to pass the exam in the future.

Two days before the exam, Xu Xian received his own exam card, which was issued by the Ministry of Rites.

The effect of the exam card is roughly similar to the admission ticket of the earth in the future, which records all kinds of information about you, not only your age and ancestral home, etc., but also the height and appearance characteristics are recorded in detail, obviously to prevent someone from impersonating the exam.

Bustling, noisy, and the much-eyed test is finally coming.

Just like the college entrance examination in later generations, on June 7/8 every year, there will always be a lot of registrations for the college entrance examination. The Spring Entrance Examination is much more important than the college entrance examination, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the attention of the whole people.

Many inns in the capital have hung blessings such as the title of the congratulatory gold list on this day, and have also taken the opportunity to launch some auspicious dish names.

Before dawn, Xu Xian set off from Guozijian and came to the Gongyuan with his bags on his back.

At this time, outside the wall of the Gongyuan, there was already a sea of people, surrounded by candidates and family servants waiting for the exam, and at a cursory glance, I am afraid that there are at least tens of thousands of people!

After all, according to statistics, there are more than 6,000 people who have signed up for the Spring Festival examination this time! And most of them are different from Xu Xian, who is a loner, and does not need to be taken care of. Most lifters, no matter where they go, have at least one or two people by their side.

"Let one go, let one let ......"

Xu Xian looked at the situation outside the Gong Courtyard, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly. Fortunately, he is not an ordinary person, otherwise it would have taken a lot of effort to squeeze into the tribute courtyard from the edge.

Outside the Gongyuan, there was a fence blocking it, Xu Xian passed the first security check with his test card, and then according to the guidance of the errand officer, he successfully came to the area where people were queuing in the Jiangnan area.

There is only one examination room for the examination. However, the interior of the Gongyuan is very large, and it is divided into several examination areas. The division of the examination area is divided according to the candidate's place of origin.

For example, Xu Xian is in the Jiangnan Candidate Area.

"Xu Hanwen!" The person in front of the queue was a little surprised when he saw Xu Xian, and turned around to say hello.

When Xu Xian saw this face, he didn't immediately remember who it was, and only recognized it after half a ring, and said, "Chen An!"

This person was met two years ago, when Xu Xiangang was a talent in Zhongxiucai, and many teachers and students from Hangzhou Mansion Academy went to Jinling to participate in the Jiangnan Talent Literary Conference.

At that Jiangnan Talent Literary Conference, Xu Xian won the first place, Fang Zhongyong won the second place, and the third place was Chen An!

The three of them rounded up the top three positions, making Jinling Academy, the first university in Jiangnan, lose all its money, and it was a great shame.

It is precisely by virtue of the status of the top three in the Jiangnan Genius Literary Association that Chen An, a disciple of the poor family, has the opportunity to go to Yingtianfu Academy to study.

However, unlike Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong's talents, although Chen An is talented, he is not very outstanding, and he was able to win the third place at the beginning, and luck accounted for a lot of it.

So after arriving in the capital, Chen An failed to continue to shine and became a relatively ordinary one among the more than 6,000 lifters.

Even at the Shangyuan banquet, he was not among the invitees.

However, it can be seen from the chat that although Chen An soared into the sky at the Jiangnan Talent Conference, showing a dazzling light, and after arriving in the capital, he was unknown and almost unknown to everyone, but his mentality did not jump, and he was always relatively optimistic and positive.

is as unpretentious as he was at the Jiangnan Talent Conference.

He really wants to get out as soon as possible, but not to get ahead, nor to be prosperous and rich, but just to bring his mother and wife from his hometown to his side as soon as possible and live together.

Now he is studying in Yingtianfu, with the subsidy of the imperial court, although he has no worries about food and clothing, but he has no way to bring his family to the capital to live.

If you don't pass the exam this time, you'll have to wait another three years.

In the past three years, he has still not been able to live with his wife and mother.

"You'll definitely pass this exam. Xu Xian blessed.

Chen An's mood is a bit similar to him, he wants to go home as soon as possible, be able to see his mother, and accompany his family.

What Xu Xian is thinking about now is to return to Qiantang County as soon as possible after the exam is completed to accompany the lady who is about to give birth.

Chen An shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm not as talented as you in Hanwen, and my grasp of the Jinshi is really not very great." But no matter what, I'll do my best!"

The two chatted for a while, and the line began to move forward, and the front began to 'security check' the things that the candidates were carrying, whether there were any prohibited items such as cheat sheets.

The 'security check' of the examination can be said to be unprecedentedly strict, and each candidate will be checked by soldiers one by one. Not only the test equipment, but also the clothes must be taken off and checked inside!

Don't think how high the discipline of lifting people is, although most people may not think about cheating in exams, but thousands of people refer to it, and there will always be people who lack confidence and want to make bad decisions.

And every time I try to cheat at the security check, the number of people who are found to be cheating is not a single digit!

From the dawn of the sky to the beginning of the day, half a day passed, and thousands of candidates were all screened. Sure enough, this time, many candidates were found to have problems, and in the midst of howling and crying, they were ruthlessly dragged down by the soldiers and dealt with strictly.

These candidates will not only be disqualified from the examination this time, but they will not even be able to participate in the next two examinations.

Xu Xian naturally had no problem and passed the security check smoothly.

After all, this is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, even if someone looks at Xu Xian unpleasantly, it is impossible to participate in the township test in Suzhou Mansion, and it can still be slandered by Liang Wangfu at will.

After all, Xu Xian has long been different from what he used to be, he has the emperor's mandate in his body, he is the doctor of the tea and horse division, and he can enter the palace to meet him!

It is impossible to slander Xu Xian and cut off Xu Xian's path to the imperial examination by the following three indiscriminate means.

The current Xu Xian is like a big peng that is about to fly, as long as he uses a little wind, he can soar to 90,000 miles!
