Su Zaixing flipped through the test paper and checked the rankings based on the contents of the test paper.
Although personal perceptions are different and there are some subjective differences in the content of the test paper, in general they are similar.
Su Zaixing spent the whole night re-checking the test papers and rankings of the first government examination. Except for the room for adjustment in each ranking, most of the judgments and rankings were normal.
When the sky turned white and the rooster sang, Su Zaixing had no doubt about his ranking in the main test.
At this time, all the candidates were crowded at the door of the government office, nervously and anxiously waiting for the final results.
However, from dawn to dawn until the red sun rose, there was still no list posted. Some scholars couldn't bear it anymore, so they left a few boys here to watch. As soon as there was news of the release of the list, they would immediately Come report.
After a whole night of re-examination, Su Zaixing found no obviously unreasonable rankings or papers among the test papers and rankings in the main examination, and he couldn't help but feel worried secretly.
The Holy Sage sent him to be the examiner, obviously because the Holy Sage believed that it was necessary to increase the number of examiners for this government examination, and he should be a selfless examiner.
That's why he traveled all the way to Yunzhou to take part in presiding over this exam.
Although due to the long distance and lack of horses, Su Zaixing did not arrive in Yunzhou within the scheduled seven days, but was delayed for a full seven days. After half a month, he finally arrived in Yunzhou before the final announcement.
For Su Zaixing, there is not much he can do. After all, the exam is over. There is no way to trace whether there was any plagiarism at the exam site. The only thing he can do is to list it in the soon-to-be-released list. Find out which one is most unreasonable.
But after spending a night of energy, the results obtained were very similar to Shen Yuan's results, which made Su Zaixing somewhat lose confidence.
The teachers in each county have been working hard for several days, and the amount of questions in this government examination is particularly large. Just picking up the test paper and reading it will take a long time, not to mention the profound meaning contained in the answers.
In addition, it would take a lot of time for Su Zaixing to re-examine all the test papers, so these instructors have already expressed that they can't stand it any longer and need to rest first.
Even if Su Zaixing had the Holy Instruction in his hand, he had to let people rest, so he had to let the Instructions go to rest first, and then re-examine the first test papers after they had rested.
A whole day passed, and the government office did not release the results. The scholars were a little panicked and didn't know what happened.
Delays in rankings have also occurred in history. In most cases, someone committed fraud, so there was a delay in rankings.
For the majority of scholars, this is undoubtedly a very bad situation.
This year's Yunzhou Prefectural Examination has a particularly large number of questions. There are more than 70 questions on scriptures and five questions on strategies. Even essays are not allowed to write poems, only poems, and there are three poems.
Such a high-intensity exam has never been seen before, and the number of each question is based on the grid.
In the history of the imperial examinations in the past, there were more than 70 questions on classics, but after the classics accounted for the main part, essays and policy papers would be relatively simple.
If the policy theory sets five questions, then the number of scriptures will be reduced accordingly.
But this time, Yunzhou's prefecture examination really had an extreme number of questions, and each type of question was based on the highest number.
It took a lot of effort and energy for the scholars to finish answering this test paper. If someone really cheated and canceled everyone's test results, you can imagine what the angry scholars would do.
More and more scholars gathered in front of the government office. Everyone wanted to know what happened and why the last results were delayed for so long. Moreover, Su Zaixing arrived at night, and the matter of re-examination of the examination papers had been quietly circulated among some scholars.
Su Zaixing, who had rested all day, didn't bother to wash up. After eating two cold steamed buns, he once again devoted himself to the work of re-examining the test papers.
Since there are no problems in the main examination, continue to check the first, second, and final review.
Su Zaixing still asked the county magistrates to sort out the rankings of the first test and the test papers, and he reviewed them one by one.
But as more and more papers were reviewed, Su Zaixing's heart became colder and colder, because the ranking of each paper was very reasonable. Even if Su Zaixing came to judge the papers, they would only be ranked like this. .
This shows that he still has not found the key to the Yunzhou Prefectural Examination issue.
Because there were 30% fewer students in the first examination than in the main examination, all the first examinations were completed without staying up all night.
"Please teach me to work harder. There are still two test papers. It's a little earlier today. You can go to bed early and don't have to stay up late. We will continue to review the test papers for the next round tomorrow morning."
Even if the edicts of various counties are dissatisfied, they can only complain, but on the surface they dare not say anything.
Shen Yuan also stayed with him for two days. During these two days, he had been watching with cold eyes. He wanted to know why Su Zaixing, known as the "Iron-faced Censor", was so crazy and dared to steal his property with the emperor's edict. Examiner.
After this matter was over, Shen Yuan made up his mind to write to the Emperor, asking him to punish Su Zaixing.
Because Su Zaixing had clearly exceeded his authority, the position given to him by the Holy Emperor was that of examiner, and he should patrol the venue when the exam began. Those in the field should belong to the officials outside the curtain, and those in the courtyard belong to the officials inside the curtain.
Now, Su Zaixing has gone somewhere and missed the time to invigilate the exam. However, he brazenly relied on the emperor's orders and rushed to do things that only the officials behind the curtain had the right to do.
It was originally against the rules to switch from being an official outside the curtain to being an official inside the curtain. The reason why the curtain was separated was to isolate traffic and avoid cheating.
Therefore, Shen Yuan's purpose of watching with cold eyes was to hope that Su Zaixing would not live up to the reputation of the "iron-faced censor" and change his ranking.
In that case, if Shen Yuan has a handle, he will submit a letter as soon as possible, and he must give Su Zaixing a good report.
Shen Yuan and Su Zaixing were at war with each other in the examination hall, and the atmosphere outside the government office was also tense. A large number of scholars gathered in front of the government office, whispering about "someone came into the examination hall at night and was re-examining the examination papers."
"Everyone! We worked hard for the exam and suffered from cold and hunger. Even though we were shivering, we could hold the pen in our hands steadily and we didn't dare to make a single mistake."
"The conscience of heaven and earth is that the work we have worked so hard to write is being doubted for no reason."
"And now, the officials sent from above are re-examining the file. Why does he have it?"
"We demand the government office to release the results immediately!"
"Yes! Release the results immediately!"
