When it comes to cold weather, the worst thing is when candidates enter the examination room, because in the imperial examination, they must take off their clothes. Such cold weather is really painful.
What surprised Ling Yun was that the inspection here was not one per person, but a group of people were led into a room. The candidates put their spare items away, then all stripped naked and stood to the side, waiting for the inspection by the soldiers.
.
With the shelter of the house, they would not have to face the cold wind naked. Although they were still shivering from the cold, this was the best method compared to outside the house.
Taking off his clothes and standing inside, the embarrassing scene resurfaced again. This scene was very similar to the military inspection process in later generations. The difference was that the inspectors only checked the candidates' clothes and packages, and did not check the candidates' naked bodies. This made Ling Yun relax.
tone.
He couldn't help but wonder, if the inspecting soldiers pinched his naked body, would he be embarrassed enough to take him out of the three rooms and one living room.
Just when Ling Yun was distracted, he clearly felt that someone was looking at him again, with scorching eyes all over him. He looked down at his younger brother with some unconfidence, and found that there was nothing wrong, and the scale was particularly magnificent. He thought to himself that this
It shouldn’t be considered a loss of face, right?
I was embarrassed to look at others and stared at the bottom board, but I vaguely caught a glimpse of a group of white chickens. It must be mentioned here that the skin of ancient scholars was quite white.
Maybe it was because he stayed in his room reading all day long and never took a step out of the door, which created Bai Zhe's skin.
Except for a small number of people with naturally dark skin, most scholars have fairly fair skin. This may be the historical origin of white-faced scholars in ancient times.
When he caught a glimpse of the white and black scene, he couldn't help but look further, and then looked around. In an instant, he was shocked to find that the eagles of the people around him seemed not as spectacular as his.
Rather than saying that his was an eagle, it would be better to say that others were eaglets. It was no wonder why they stared at him abruptly, and then hurriedly looked away when he wanted to look at them. It turned out that this was the problem.
After understanding the truth, he couldn't help but hold his head high and his chest high, wanting to show his majesty to everyone. What was embarrassing was that with this straightening, the lower one accidentally straightened up, and the sudden scene caught him off guard.
The people around, including the inspecting soldiers, were all dumbfounded, watching this scene...
With his naked body exposed, Ling Yun hurriedly covered it up. Only then did everyone gradually look away, and he breathed a sigh of relief. This embarrassing scene was beyond words.
Ling Yun didn't watch carefully what happened next, but after the soldiers checked the luggage, he thought about getting dressed quickly.
But before he even started, someone rushed over him. What's more, they pulled him with their hands, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and then squeezed him in the back.
As you can imagine, he became the last person to wear clothes in the room and the last person to leave the room.
Before leaving, the soldier checking his clothes did not forget to say to him, "It's not your fault that you're awesome down there, but it's your fault that you show it in front of so many people. Don't do this again, kid."
"Kid, remember this!"
"Yeah! You can teach me, kid. Remember, being powerful doesn't necessarily mean being great, but if you win the Jinshi, then you can be called truly powerful."
Ling Yun shrugged and didn't reply. He was anxious to put on his clothes and didn't want to discuss this kind of issue with him again until he got dressed and fled the room quickly.
When I left, I couldn't help but think about the problem of the man just now. What if he was good at both?
He chuckled, retracted his thoughts, followed the soldier to his cell, and immediately put in the examination basket and packages that had been messed up during the inspection.
The room in the Examination Yuan was not a good one, also because of the large number of people. It was very narrow. Compared with the Gongyuan in the Annan Rural Examination, it was far different. Moreover, he had grown taller now, so the feeling of narrowness was even stronger.
The small room is not Ling Yun's concern. When candidates enter the examination room, the most important thing is to observe whether the room they are in has a bad room. If not, then thank God.
If you are unfortunate enough to be assigned a bad number, just sitting in it will be a double blow to your body and spirit, which will directly affect your performance in the exam.
Due to the darkness of the night, he didn't see where the toilet was. However, when the soldiers took him to the cell, he looked around and found nothing, and he didn't smell the toilet when he sat in the cell.
There was a bad smell, so he guessed that he must stay away from the toilet.
After entering the room, he lit a candle immediately and wiped every corner inside. Then he spread the quilt he brought with him on the floor and covered himself with Luo Tianyi's quilt.
At this moment, the whole person instantly felt warm.
Because there was still a long time before the exam started, he lay down on the wooden board and closed his eyes to rest.
Not long after he lay down, he suddenly heard some loud noises around him. He opened his eyes and listened carefully. He was very close. When he looked at the door, it turned out that the person who made the noise was right opposite him.
Under Ling Yun's gaze, he discovered that the people opposite him were not sorting out their clothes and laying out quilts like him, but soldiers were doing all this.
After many exams, this was the first time he discovered this situation. He couldn't help but sit up and stared intently.
Due to the darkness, he could not clearly see what the man looked like, but he could still tell from his outline that he was a young man in his twenties.
Perhaps feeling that someone was looking at him, he immediately turned his head away and said extremely arrogantly, "What are you looking at? I've never seen it before!"
This sentence left Ling Yun speechless.
He nodded towards the man, indicating that he had not seen him before.
Having grown up and experienced so many exams, this was the first time he saw such a scene. There were actually soldiers serving the candidates. It was really eye-opening!
Unexpectedly, after his answer, the man immediately started to sneer and show off to him, "Hey! At this moment, do you feel that this young master is majestic and extraordinary?"
"Forehead…"
This question stopped him, especially his unabashed voice, which was ridiculously loud.
What's even more outrageous is that the soldier who was sorting the clothes showed no signs of stopping, as if he was not surprised, which made him doubt the identity of this person.
Are they relatives of the emperor?
Otherwise, who would dare to be so bold?
As for the majestic and extraordinary bearing that the man said, Ling Yun didn't see it. Instead, he felt that he was more like a cynical and careless young man who wanted to bring down the rich.
However, Ling Yun did not speak, because he did not dare to speak out in such a situation. If he was kicked out as soon as he opened his mouth, it would be worse than Dou E.
After all, he is not as confident as that person.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the man looked quite irritable. Displeasure flashed across his face and he shouted, "Why don't you answer me? Is it possible that you are mute?"
