The first paper made people feel a little high blood pressure.
There are eight major questions, selected from the Four Books and Five Classics, which are all candidates’ nightmares - eight-legged essay!
There is also a Song poem.
It seems that we have to learn from the treasures of later generations.
In order not to repeat the questions that have been tested before, the governors of each prefecture who came up with the questions racked their brains and the questions became more and more stupid.
I thought it would be a lot of trouble in the scholar test, but I didn't expect that it would be ten times worse than the scholar test.
Fortunately, as a disciple of the county magistrate, I have studied with Zeng Yu for a long time and have first-hand learning materials. At this time, I have some answers to these difficult questions.
Yu Tiance studied the question quietly, and after thinking for a while, he came up with a solution to the problem.
Now I make an outline on the scratch paper, write it, self-correct, change words and revise it. After I feel it is correct, I copy it on the test paper...
Speak on behalf of the sages, use the tone of the sages, and then quote the classics... Finally, pay attention to the number of words.
After finishing eight articles and eight essays, it was already the afternoon of the third day.
Fortunately, it is early autumn and the weather is not too cold.
After sitting on the table for three days, Yu Tiance showed no signs of catching the wind and cold except for feeling a little floaty.
When the examiner collects the paper, he must affix the name of the candidate on the paper.
This step is called sealing.
I heard that it is to prevent the grader from taking care of a certain person. It has been a rule for hundreds of years.
The end-of-examination bell rang, and a quarter of an hour later, all candidates' examination papers were sealed and taken back, before the examiners issued their final blow.
The title of the Song Dynasty poem: Praise to the Country.
The requirements are that the words should reflect the peaceful and prosperous times, the happy life of the people, be grateful for being born in China, have a magnificent artistic conception of mountains and rivers, and be majestic...
Time, half an hour.
After three days of continuous exams, I couldn’t eat well or sleep well, my head was already spinning, not to mention only half an hour, how could I write a good poem?
Countless scholars frowned and sighed.
However, Yu Tiance didn't feel any pressure at all, and instead laughed.
A good poem that shocked Jiedushi is about to be born!
Yu Tiance didn't need to use papyrus. He dipped his brush in some ink and started writing.
There is no need to change the title, just use the lyrics of Leehom Wang's "Heaven and Earth Dragon Scale" and modify it slightly.
This country, when I start writing, the national bloodline is tens of thousands of miles long.
Over the centuries and six hundred years, the descendants of the dragon have gone through ups and downs;
This capital city, the central axis, is as unwavering as a gentleman’s integrity.
Nine dragon walls, glazed tiles, history has declined and risen again.
This dragon scale once fell to the ground like broken ice...
After submitting the papers, Yu Tiance walked out of Gongyuan in a daze under the leadership of the government officials.
In front of the gate of Gongyuan, soldiers formed a vacuum area.
The people crowded the perimeter of the circle and looked anxiously at the big red door of the Gongyuan. Every time someone came out, the waiting people's hearts twitched.
As before, there were those who cried bitterly, those who acted violently, those who screamed to the sky, those who sat on the ground and let go, those who made rude remarks and were dragged away by the soldiers...
The old enemies Jiang Nan and Wang Min, with livid faces, also walked out of Dahongmen not long after.
snort!
Jiang Nan looked at Yu Tiance with disdain: "You will definitely not be able to pass. I'm not sure yet. When you fail, let's see how Uncle Shen scolds you!"
Yu Tiance shook his fan and was too lazy to argue with him.
If he said that his previous results were not as good as Jiang Nan's, he would definitely not hold his tongue. But in the past six months, after Zeng Yu's patient training, he had some understanding of stereotypes, expressions, essays, and policy discussions, and he was not necessarily better than Jiang Nan. Difference.
Besides, that last lyric is a song that has been included in the country’s textbooks!
Then again, what else could Shen Kang do to him?
"I hope you get what you want!"
After leaving a word, Yu Tiance turned around and walked out of the blockade area and disappeared in front of the Gongyuan gate.
I need to go back and sleep for a night as soon as possible. I have to take the second provincial examination tomorrow morning.
Shen Jing, Shen An and Chen Qing were waiting outside.
After waiting for Wang Chuan, everyone walked towards Jiang Yue Tower.
Walking tiredly on the street, looking at the scholars on both sides, some were happy and some were crying. This scene made me feel more solemn.
Returning to the inn, Yu Tiance fell asleep.
In the early morning of the next day, Yu Tiance got up before dawn, picked up the exam basket in a daze, and went out with Wang Chuan.
The number of participants on the second day was nearly 200 less than on the first day.
Maybe those scholars thought they didn't do well in the exam on the first day, so they voluntarily gave up the opportunity, checked out the room early and went home.
This is not surprising either.
After all, consumption in Chang'an is very high, especially during the provincial examination. After taking into account the registration fee, paper sealing fee, and room and board, it is a big expense, and poor people simply cannot afford it.
Since there is no hope of passing, it is better to prepare our troops and fight again after three years.
While waiting, Yu Tiance accidentally met Jiang Nan, Wang Min and Edo again.
Jiang Nan glared at Yu Tiance fiercely and said through gritted teeth: "Biaozi, although my father has broken off the engagement, I will never give up! Sooner or later, I will marry Jing'er!"
Yu Tiance really wanted to punch him.
A young man from a wealthy family always thinks about other people’s wives. What the hell!
But it would be embarrassing to fight with him, so why don't you fight with him? He will harass you endlessly!
Seeing that Yu Tiance didn't speak, Wang Min also said provocatively: "Biaozi, don't you have something to do? Aren't you good at fighting? Beat us up, come on!"
snort!
Beat you?
Yu Tiance sneered, turned his head, as if he didn't hear what the two said, turned around and walked to Edo, and asked with a smile: "Brother Jiang, how do you feel about the first exam?"
"Brother Yu, I personally feel pretty good!"
This move made Jiang Nan and Wang Min even more angry.
Growing up, who dared to ignore them?
"You didn't say anything when you saw us? Are you crazy now?"
Yu Tiance held the test basket and glanced disdainfully.
"It's easy to trample a bed bug to death when it crawls on your feet, but I don't want to dirty my shoes. You two are worse than bed bugs, so why should I care about you?"
presumptuous!
It happened that it was Yu Tiance's turn to check, so he packed his luggage and quickly walked into the gate of Gongyuan.
Behind him, Jiang Nan's curse came instantly: "Who are you calling a bug? Do you really think you are a talent? You just got lucky! Don't worry, you and I will fight to the end!"
Haha~
Whatever...
After checking your luggage, it’s time to check your body.
As soon as he finished taking off his clothes, he heard a noise behind him.
Looking back, I saw a scholar being dragged out by two government officials.
The candidate cried and explained: "That bun is not mine, someone framed me! I don't know who put it in my test basket! No matter how stupid I am, I will never put a note in the bun!"
However, the government officials did not listen to his call.
The examinee struggled hard, crying and shouting: "Sir, I was the first in the Gyeonggi Province and Bongxiang Prefecture examinations last year. It is impossible for me to plagiarize!"
Gyeonggi Road is the scientific name of Yongliang Road.
The official name is Gyeonggi Road, but the people prefer to call the northwest region Yongliang Road.
The matter had already come out, and no one would listen to the scholar's explanation. The yamen officer covered his mouth with his hand and pulled it off...
