They who are searching, no matter how carefully they search, they can't take off the trousers of the examiners for inspection, otherwise the examiners will probably rebel on the spot. And Huang Qiong kept his word. For those who took the initiative to hand over the examination papers, as long as they handed them over, they were still given a release, so that they could continue to complete the imperial examination. As for whether they can win or not, that is their own business.
Some took the initiative to hand it over, and of course there were also those who were stubborn and wanted to continue to resist with a sense of luck. Huang Qiong flailed another scribe's scarf on his head, and the mezzanine was filled with cheat sheets. There are cheat sheets written all over the lining at the hem of one shirt, and there is a suit with cheat sheets written all over the belly. When these five people were taking the exam, they were shackled for three consecutive days in the Gongyuan.
In addition to catching cheaters in the examination room, Huang Qiong also met the young master Sima Hong who was participating in the examination. As for the fiery look in Mr. Sima's eyes when he looked at him. Huang Qiong just nodded slightly, then turned his head and stopped looking at this person. Seeing that the King of England ignored him, Mr. Sima was too sensible to step forward to say hello.
In the imperial examinations of this dynasty, poetry, poetry, and poetry were never tested, so the focus of the examination was on strategy. Looking at the five guys who were shackled by him, Huang Qiong directly changed the topic of the third subject to the harm of cheating in the imperial examination to the country's selection of scholars, and required narration, argumentation, and quotations from classics. Regarding Huang Qiong's move, the two deputy examiners and the proctor were all frightened.
According to the customization, once the question is published, no changes are allowed. If changes are necessary, a request is required before the backup questions can be used. But today, this King of England not only had extremely tricky and unfamiliar test questions. Now, he didn't even look at the third subject test question that had been sealed and covered with a jade seal. He opened his mouth and asked a new question.
Is this really a bit too childish? But Huang Qiong is the examiner, and his decision is final. Several deputy examiners and promotions, even if they objected, it was useless. Looking at the livid faces of the deputy chief examiners, Huang Qiong just smiled and didn't even give these people an explanation. In desperation, several people had no choice but to bite the bullet and accompany them to take the exam.
But Huang Qiong didn't pay attention to what they were thinking. He just saw that after he came up with the new question, many people in the Gongyuan were either writing furiously or thinking intently, and many of them had gray hair. , the clothes on his body were still patched together, but he shook his head and said nothing. Although there are many contingencies in the imperial examination, it is already the fairest selection method in this era.
At least it is much fairer to those children from poor families than the previous systems of promoting filial piety and incorruptibility, conquering and recruiting, inspecting and recruiting, or the nine-rank Zhongzheng system. In the imperial examinations of this dynasty, candidates did not need to be recommended by public officials, and family background was not important. As long as you are talented, even if you are just a beggar, you can pass the exam all the way, which is more fair than the former Tang Dynasty. But not everyone has to seize every opportunity.
Although this dynasty treats scholars generously, as long as they pass the examination, they will basically be raised by the court. Moreover, every time you participate in the examination, you can not only stay at the inns along the way for free food and accommodation, but also the local government will give you enough travel expenses. However, the expense of studying all year round without doing anything in production is still a huge pressure for some families. After all, the money and food given by the government is only enough to make ends meet.
I do nothing all year round, just to focus on studying. It can still make ordinary families unable to make ends meet, or even go bankrupt. In fact, in Huang Qiong's view, passing the imperial examination is inevitable and has great contingency. Even in the rigid and dogmatic dynasties, those who could only read books and make beautiful articles were as beautiful as flowers.
However, those who lack flexibility in analyzing and understanding specific matters may not be successful. Those who really win the exam still have a certain amount of talent, or they are not just those who just study hard. Just like thousands of years later, it will be difficult for people who can only memorize things to get into a prestigious university. The real academic masters are those who can read, not those who can only read rote books.
Unfortunately, most people still don’t understand this truth. I thought of Jia Quan’s father who had been taking the exam for many years and not only bankrupted his family but also his own life in the end. Huang Qiong was filled with emotion when he looked at the old people in front of him who had gray hair and patches on their clothes and were still trying their best to take exams. Do you really have a temperament that refuses to admit defeat, or are you crazy about wanting to be an official?
For people who are over fifty years old and know their destiny, what will happen even if they pass the exam? After passing the exam, there is an additional year of observing politics in the six departments. If you are sent out to serve as a county magistrate, if you have a hidden illness or something, you may not be able to complete your term. Wouldn't it be a good idea for these people to go back and open some private schools, teach more students, and earn more money and food to support their families? Or you can participate in the election of officials.
Why do you have to hang yourself from a tree? Is it really that good to be a Jinshi? Thinking of this, Huang Qiong shook his head and finally suppressed some of his thoughts. The 30-year-old Ming Jing and the 50-year-old Jinshi are the most difficult examinations since the imperial examination. This dynasty also merged Mingjing and Jinshi subjects, which made it more difficult to pass the examination.
If the upper limit of age is adjusted downwards, it will become even more difficult to take the imperial examination. There are three exams in total, which is a torment for the candidates and also a torment for the examiners. Candidates are required to eat, drink, and defecate in the examination room, and the examiner is also required to eat, drink, and defecate in the examination room.
Candidates cannot get out, and neither can the examiner. After all three exams are over, the exhausted candidates can go back to rest. Huang Qiong, who was also exhausted, had to personally supervise the examinations and promotions with several deputy examiners, seal and record the examination papers, and finally grade the examination papers after all these were completed.
However, after the sealing and consort registration were completed, Huang Qiong could finally return home. When Huang Qiong, who had changed out of her court uniform, returned to the Prince of England's palace, she received the news and the girls were waiting outside the palace gate early. Since following Huang Qiong in Zhengzhou, the girls have never been separated from Huang Qiong for such a long time. For more than a month, Huang Qiong has been thinking about these women. Why don't these women think about this man?
Seeing that all the girls were waiting for him, their eyes were a little red, and Huang Qiong also stepped forward to hug and kiss them one by one. When he came to He Yao, who hadn't seen him for more than a month and whose belly had almost grown again, he didn't care about the presence of all the maids and servants around him. Huang Qiong, who really couldn't restrain his longing, picked up the beauty and kissed her passionately.
He kissed He Yao until she was out of breath and then let go of her family member's mouth. However, Huang Qiong did not put He Yao down and carried her back to the living room before he was willing to put down the woman he had missed the most during his time in the palace. Then he looked at the girls, whose eye circles were a little red and their figures were a little thin, but their appearance was becoming more and more handsome.
Huang Qiong felt really distressed, and hugged each other again. He patted the buttocks of Lin Wanqing, who was still in his arms and refused to come down, and then said angrily: "I have not been in the palace during this period, and none of you have eaten well? Why are you all so thin? So much? Aren't you afraid that when I come back, I will be angry when I see you like this?"
Hearing Huang Qiong's obviously angry but actually distressed words, the elders He Yao and Duan Jin were better off. But the younger Lin Wanqing girls pouted their little lips and said coquettishly: "Don't you miss me? Who would have thought that I have been away for more than a month and haven't seen you for a month. I won't even come back." He said he was trying to comfort us, but he knew how to get angry at us."
Gently twisting the beauty's strong and pretty nose that stuck to him, Huang Qiong laughed and said, "I feel sorry for you, that's why I'm angry. Don't do this to yourself next time, even more so when I'm not at home." You need to eat and take good care of yourself so that you can serve me better. Otherwise, if I really starve you and lose weight, will I feel so distressed to death?"
Seeing that Huang Qiong was very happy on the surface, but she was tired in her bones, He Yao quickly stopped the girls from continuing to act like a baby, and said to Lin Wanqing and Myolie Zhu: "Okay, let's stop acting like a baby. Wan Qing, Myolie, you two go take a bath first and let me relax. Da Ping, Xiao Ping, please go down and prepare for the dinner. Today our whole family will have a reunion dinner."
After hearing He Yao's words, several young girls did not dare to make trouble. Lin Wanqing and Zhu Xinger went to bathe with Huang Qiong, and the other girls also got busy under the command of He Yao. After Huang Qiong and the girls left, He Yao and Duan Jin smiled bitterly at each other. Huang Qiong didn't feel anything when he was in the mansion on weekdays.
But during Huang Qiong's absence, there was no life in the mansion at all. There was no smile on everyone's face. More importantly, during the period when Huang Qiong was away from the mansion, He Yao, as the housekeeper, felt that this little man was really the god of the mansion. Without Huang Qiong, it really felt like the sky had fallen, and I had no idea of what to do.
Now that Huang Qiong has returned home, the girls have smiles on their faces, and she has some confidence in her heart. He looked around him, although he was hiding it well. But a hint of joy in his eyes still revealed Duan Jin's inner thoughts. He Yao couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The Snake Girl Sword, the eldest princess of Dali Kingdom Yunxiao, who was once so arrogant, has now become like herself, a real little woman.
I am also becoming more and more dependent on this man. Thinking of this, He Yao frowned slightly and said to Duan Jin: "Aren't you going to accompany him? At this time, the spring supper must have already started in the bathroom. It can be seen that he has been staying up late these days. Qing and Xing'er will definitely not be able to mess with him. You should go there too, don't make it happen that there are two more people absent during dinner."
Even though I was thinking a lot, I still felt a little embarrassed after all. Regarding He Yao's kindness, Duan Jin neither said to go nor said not to go. He just looked at He Yao and smiled and said: "How do you know that he didn't go looking for wild food during these days? There are so many beauties in this palace, let alone his current status, even if he is just a prince."
"Those palace ladies are all eager to sleep with him. In any case, being a prince's concubine is better than suffering in the palace, isn't it? These days, he has been in the palace, beside him There is not even a woman. Can his temperament survive? Maybe there will be a few more sisters in this house in a few days. By then, I will see if you can still be so pregnant. "
In response to Duan Jin's teasing, He Yao pursed her lips and smiled slightly: "My man, don't you know what your temper is and what kind of women you like? It's strange that those yellow-haired girls in the palace can get into his eyes. . If you don't like him, you won't touch him even to death. Didn't you see that when he came back, he looked at us, and his eyes were glowing green? "
"Also, you can go if you want. If you and I are embarrassed, just say it directly. It's not like we have never served him on the same bed. Wan Qing and Xing'er, the two of them in the past should be yours in terms of seniority. Junior. But now that we are all sisters, you don’t have to be so particular. Forget about you, I am the master. If he gets angry, don’t I have to let him do it? "
