Ouyang chuckled: "Of course, I have to do the whole thing just to show off, and I also take the opportunity to let some people see how chaotic the imperial examination is now."

A certain emperor far away in the palace sneezed several times.

At night, Zhu Yipin looked at the mountains of books in front of him, his eyes bulging. He turned to look at Ouyang and said, "There are so many books, can you not read them?"

Ouyang smiled and said: "Ruoxin, you have moved the library back." After that, he walked forward and picked through the pile of books, took out a dozen books and said, "These are the ones you need to read most, for general exams , it’s nothing more than dictating some passages from the Four Books and Five Classics, and the last thing is pasting the scriptures. You don’t need to post the scriptures, you just memorize these things that need to be written dictally.”

Zhu Yipin smiled bitterly and said: "Ouyang, it's too difficult for you to do it for me. Besides, why don't you just show up and hand in a blank paper?"

Liu Ruoxin played with her hair and said without raising her head: "Then you go investigate this case yourself."

When Zhu Yipin heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it just an endorsement? I'll recite it!" After saying that, he picked up the book and started reading.

"Then I won't disturb you." After saying that, Ouyang pulled Liu Ruoxin and left.

Late at night, Zhu Yipin was dozing off with a book when Zhao Buzhu walked in with a can of Red Bull, patted Zhu Yipin and shouted: "Hey, Lao Zhu, Lao Zhu."

Zhu Yipin raised his head in a daze, saw the person coming, rubbed his face and said, "Old Zhao." Then he said happily: "Oh, Old Zhao, you came just in time."

Zhao Buzhu said very enthusiastically: "Lao Zhu, I was very pleased to hear that you said you were going to take the imperial examination. I brought you a can of Red Bull as a token of my gratitude."

"So polite!" Zhu Yipin took the red bull and asked with a smile: "Old Zhao, I know that you have read a lot of poetry and books, and you must be very familiar with the inside story of the imperial examination. I heard that the imperial examination requires a test of the Four Books and Five Classics. What is the specific test? ah?"

"You have asked the right person." Zhao Buzhu said proudly: "These four books are Dream of the Lantern Flowers, Romance of the West Chamber, Water Margin, and Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms. And the Five Classics are the Heart Sutra, the Altar Sutra, the Diamond Sutra, the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Sutra, and the Patriarch Bodhidharma’s Yi Jin Jing. As long as you memorize these verses thoroughly, I guarantee that you will be named on the gold medal list and win the first prize in one fell swoop.”

After Zhu Yipin finished listening, he murmured: "Why is it completely different from what Ouyang said."

Seeing this, Zhao Buzhu said: "He Ouyang has never passed the examination, and I am considered a scholar after all. I am very familiar with these things."

Zhu Yipin nodded when he heard this. He felt that what Zhao Buzhu said was reasonable, so he said happily: "Old Zhao, you have helped me a lot."

"Lao Zhu, just keep working hard and I won't disturb you anymore." Zhao Buzhu was about to turn around and leave when something suddenly occurred to him and reminded him: "You must drink this Red Bull. I brought it to you specially."

"Thank you." Zhu Yipin picked up the Red Bull, drank it down with a smile on his face, and started reading. As time passed, he gradually felt that his head was heavy and his tail was light, and he fell over.

After a while, Zhao Buzhu walked in wearing night clothes and began to search for things in the house. While searching, he murmured: "Where is it? Where did you put it..."

When Ouyang and Liu Ruoxin walked into the house, they saw Zhao Buzhu, who was dressed in black and masked. Liu Ruoxin jumped out of the way and knocked him unconscious. After tearing off the mask, she glared: "Why is it him?"

Ouyang looked at Zhu Yipin who was sleeping soundly, took out a porcelain bottle, opened it and gave him a smell. The latter slowly woke up and saw the visitor and said, "Ouyang, are you here?"

Then he saw Zhao Buzhu lying on the ground wearing night clothes, and was surprised: "Old Zhao? Why is he dressed like this?"

Yang Yuxuan said coldly: "Should we kill him?"

Zhu Yipin stopped him and said, "I'll ask first." Then he woke up Zhao Buzhu and asked, "Zhao Buzhu, I usually treat you like a brother, why do you want to murder me?"

"Brother? You have the nerve to talk about brothers. Is there anyone like you who is a brother?" Seeing that he had been exposed, Zhao Buzhu simply broke the jar and said while crying: "You want women to have women, and you want medical centers to have doctors." You can even take the imperial examination through the back door. I, Zhao Bu, have been living in poverty for ten years, but I have never even seen the door of the imperial examination room."

Everyone was speechless, it was because of this.

When Zhu Yipin heard this, he also felt deep sympathy for Zhao Buzhu.

Seeing this, Zhao Buzhu hurriedly said: "Lao Zhu, if you feel guilty, give me your admission ticket. When I come to the annuity list, it will be your benefit." As he said this, he searched Zhu Yipin.

Seeing this, Ouyang knocked Zhao Buzhu unconscious.

Zhu Yipin said: "Ouyang, you..."

Ouyang took out his ears and said: "Old Zhao is going crazy now. Let him have a good sleep and he will be fine tomorrow morning." Then he said: "How is it? He won't sleep until now, right?"

Zhu Yipin hummed: "How is it possible? I'll carry it for you." After saying that, he sat there and started to recite: "The supreme and profound Dharma will be encountered in millions of calamities..."

"Stop!" Ouyang raised his hand to stop him: "What is this?"

Zhu Yipin picked up a book and said, "Heart Sutra! It's one of the Four Books and Five Classics."

Ouyang held his forehead and said helplessly: "Who did you listen to?"

Liu Ruoxin laughed and said: "Zhu Yipin, you are a fool and you still don't admit it. Even I know that the Five Classics are the Book of Songs, the Book of History, the Book of Rites, the Book of Changes, and the Spring and Autumn Period."

Zhu Yipin said confusedly: "Then, what about the four books?"

Yang Yuxuan said lightly: "University, Doctrine of the Mean, The Analects of Confucius, Mencius."

Ouyang spread his hands and said, "Look, Lao Yang knows this. Who did you listen to?"

Zhu Yipin said: "This is obviously Lao Zhao..." Then thinking of what happened just now, he cursed: "tua! Damn Zhao Buzhu, you actually cheated me!"

Ouyang shrugged and said, "Then let's start over."

Zhu Yipin had a look of despair on his face: "I've been busy most of the night, but it's all in vain."

time flies......

On the day of the exam, Zhu Yipin looked at the sea of ​​people outside the exam room and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really spectacular!"

Liu Ruoxin clasped her fingernails and said, "Of course, after you go in and come out again, you may reach the sky in one step."

Zhu Yipin looked around and said, "Hey, why is it just you? Where are Ouyang and Yang Yuxuan?"

Liu Ruoxin pointed to the door and saw Ou Yang, dressed in fine clothes, looking at the candidates who were entering the examination room one after another with his hands behind his back, accompanied by two officials behind him.

Zhu Yipin glared and said, "Wow, who is Ouyang? Is it such a big show?"

"What nonsense! Hurry up and enter the examination room!" Liu Ruoxin kicked him after saying that.

"Sir, you see, we have always been very strict and resolutely put an end to fraud." An examiner behind him said with a smile.

Ouyang nodded and said, "You still have to be careful."

Zhu Yipin smiled at him when he passed by him. Ouyang chuckled secretly and said with a serious face: "Why is this person smiling so playfully? Search him carefully."

"Yes!" The two sergeants next to him came over immediately and began to search for Zhu Yipin.

Zhu Yipin glared and said: "tua! You..."

The sergeant shouted: "No noise!"

After entering the examination room, the examination questions were also handed out. Zhu Yipin was dumbfounded when he saw it: "Ah? You haven't seen this "Historical Theory" before?"
