Li Ang wrote the answers on the test paper with flying pen. The test paper for the first examination of the Academy was divided into three parts, scriptures, policy questions, and poems.
There are fifteen questions in one section of the Sutra. They are selected from passages from "Spring and Autumn", "Shang Shu" and other examination books, and are required to fill in the context and annotations.
Li Ang was sure to answer twelve questions correctly. The remaining three questions were from "Etiquette" and "Book of Changes". I didn't know if they were correct or not.
There is a question in one of the policy questions, and the title is "The issue of prison and market has been difficult in the past, and it is not easy to be lenient and harsh today. Slowness will make things deceitful, and urgency will make it hard for traitors to tolerate them. The severity, the shallowness, and the depth, stand still." Congratulations."
Candidates were asked to discuss whether the criminal law of Yu State should be lenient or harsh.
The correct answer is of course that the punishment should be lenient and severe, but there is a lot to pay attention to when writing the answer beautifully.
The writing style is required to be both gorgeous and smooth. The article quotes classics and references, is combined with reality, has clear arguments, sufficient and reliable arguments, and the logical reasoning process of the article is unhurried, solid and steady...
Li Ang glanced around with the corner of his eye.
The same examination room accommodated fifty candidates from all over the country and two invigilators. The candidates' desks were separated from each other. Many people lay on their seats scratching their heads and scratching their heads, fidgeting.
What's more, they were so anxious that they were sweating profusely and kept raising their sleeves to wipe the sweat from their foreheads, for fear that the sweat would drip down and contaminate the test paper.
A quiet and solemn atmosphere enveloped the examination room, while the two invigilators sat calmly at the back of the examination room, sipping tea leisurely.
If they weren't afraid of making noise, these two people would probably have moved the chessboard to play chess.
"Swipe-"
The sound of the test paper rubbing against the table was heard, and at the table next to Li Ang, an expressionless girl with eyebrows wearing a hairpin silently pulled away the test paper filled with delicate hairpins written in small regular script.
'Um? '
Li Ang was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the other party didn't want him to peek, and silently complained in his heart: 'As for it? I have passed more exams than you have eaten. '
If you include the exam experience in the memory of another world, he indeed has a volume of exercises that dwarfs most students in this world.
Li Ang shook his head, spent a lot of thought, and finally answered the policy questions. He breathed a long sigh of relief.
Suddenly, the examinee's wails rang out from the examination room next door.
Before the candidates could even raise their heads, the crying suddenly stopped and silence returned.
'insulation note,'
Li Ang raised his eyebrows, 'Has someone been caught cheating...'
The academy has been in the academy for more than three hundred years, and the examination system has become more and more perfect. Countless cases have proven that cheating has no good consequences, but there are always people who do not believe in evil.
'Those invigilators from the Ministry of Etiquette may be just decorations.
But the teachers and doctors in the academy are all monks in the Listening to Rain and Xunyun realms. Don't even try to hide the little tricks of ordinary candidates from them. '
Li Ang shook his head and looked at the last two poetry examination questions calmly.
'It is required to limit the topic and write a poem and a poem. It’s the same as propositional composition. '
Li Ang pursed his lips. The title of the poem was rivers, whether it was literally singing about rivers nourishing the people, or using scenery to describe people or things.
The title of the poem is "Banding Yuanping Western Region Fu".
Both questions were quite satisfactory. Li Ang had written similar poems before as preparation, so it didn't take long to fill out the test paper and hand it in in advance.
Also raising their hands to hand in papers was the girl with eyebrows at the next table.
The two sides' eyes met in the air, and they narrowed their eyes in unison.
The first exam of the Academy is not just about answering questions. In addition to scriptures, poems, policy questions, and horse riding and archery, the required test content is also included.
The vast expanse of grassland on the river bank was set up for horseback shooting events.
The academy has prepared hundreds of horses. Students need to select their own horses and complete a lap on the oval track surrounded by fences. The shorter the time, the better the results.
The first person to answer the paper test paper will have priority to go to the racecourse to select a horse, finish the race first, and go to the shooting range for archery projects.
Students who have not yet been able to hand in their papers will naturally have to choose tired horses that have run several laps and have been exhausted, and their academic performance will inevitably be inferior to others.
This is a question of trade-offs,
For example, the few recommended students from the Ministry of War in the corner of the examination room knew that they were not good at writing. After quickly filling out the paper test papers, they immediately handed in the papers in advance and went to the racecourse to choose horses. From their perspective, they could naturally choose the best horses.
Through extra points in riding and archery subjects, the deficiencies in scriptures, poems, strategies, and questions are made up for.
"Swipe."
The invigilator brought shredded paper and paste, pasted their names on the upper left corners of Li Ang's and the girl's papers at the next table, and nodded casually, "You can go..."
Before the invigilator finished speaking, the two of them slapped the table and rushed towards the rear door of the examination room.
————
In the Xuanxie corridor downstream of the stream, Chai Cuiqiao still prayed devoutly, "All the gods, you must bless my young master. The King of Medicine, the God of Earth, Zixia, Yuanjun, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother will send their son Guanyin to the Broom Star..."
"laugh--"
The girl in gorgeous clothes who was originally sitting next to Chai Cuiqiao was holding back her laughter while listening to Chai Cuiqiao's low prayers.
When I heard "Broom Star Lord", I couldn't hold back at all. I raised my left hand to cover my mouth and chuckled.
"Um?"
Chai Cuiqiao raised her eyebrows and glanced at the other party rudely.
The girl next to her is wearing a white dress. The dress is made of Luo (lighter silk fabric) with gold and silver threads on it. She has a silk shawl on her shoulders. She wears a Chaoyunxiang bun and an emerald step on her head. Her face is The lower part is covered by goose yellow gauze.
Not far away there were elite guards wearing leather armor, who were obviously either rich or noble.
Normally, Chai Cuiqiao would have secretly analyzed the value of the other party's outfit and the grade of rouge and gouache used.
But now her mind was entirely focused on Li Ang in the examination room, and she was not interested in taking a closer look at him - there were many family members of dignitaries and dignitaries praying for their children in the pavilion.
Chai Cuiqiao curled her lips slightly unhappy, closed her mouth, and continued to pray silently in her heart.
"Does the girl also pray for her family members?"
The girl in gorgeous clothes put down her palm and asked curiously in a soft voice through the gauze.
Chai Cuiqiao opened her eyes and glanced at her, and said with a lukewarm attitude: "Pray for my young... ahem, Da Lang."
There is no such thing as "young master" in Yu State. In front of outsiders, one still has to call him Lang Jun or Dalang.
I almost let it slip.
Chai Cuiqiao pretended to cough and asked casually: "Young lady, are you too?"
"Ah I..."
Princess Li Leling of the Yu Kingdom subconsciously pinched the Turtle Breath Talisman on her right wrist through the sleeves of her shirt and skirt, "I'm not. One of my brothers is already a disciple of the Academy. This time I'm here... I’m here to watch the exam.”
