Volume 1 Wind and Rain Entering Lin'an Chapter 76 Privileges
As an official spoke loudly, a group of students became commotion and began to prepare to line up to enter the venue. For a time, farewells, blessings, and scoldings from the officers and soldiers were heard, making it noisy.
"Brother Zian, let's go, let's line up too. Go in early and settle down early. Have a good sleep tonight and show off your skills tomorrow." Qian Kang rubbed his hands and said.
Fang Zian nodded in agreement, turned to Chuni and said, "Chunni, please go back. I have to line up to enter."
Chuni said: "I'll wait until you go in before leaving."
Fang Zian smiled and said: "Then why bother? It's so noisy and we don't know when we can get in. If you stay out for too long, your father will go crazy in the shop."
After thinking about it, Chun Ni thought that it was the case. Chun Ni basically arranged everything in the shop now. If she had been away for a long time, her father would be in a hurry. Without her in the kitchen, Liu'er would be hard-pressed to hold on alone, and there might be chaos.
What? He could only nod his head and said: "Then I'll leave. Don't put too much pressure on me. Winning is the best. If you don't win, it's no big deal. It won't mean you won't have a good life. Chunni will pick you up in three days."
go home."
Fang Zian smiled, squeezed her hand and nodded: "Okay, be careful on the road, hire a car, don't walk back just to save money, the road is still long."
Chunni nodded in agreement, said goodbye to Qian Kang and Zhao Changlin, turned around and left with three turns. Fang Zian, Qian Kang and Zhao Changlin carried the boxes and cages on their backs, merged into the crowd in front, and entered the queue.
The entrance inspection is very strict. The imperial examination system of the Song Dynasty has been very complete and strict. Although fraud cannot be completely eliminated, at least it has done what it needs to do in form. The methods of locking the courtyard and hiding names and copying have been greatly reduced.
In order to avoid the possibility of fraud, the inspection upon entry is also extremely strict and detailed. Not only do students entering with a license plate have to undergo a strict identity check, but all bedding, clothes and even snacks they carry have to be dismantled.
Cut open for inspection. From time to time, people were dragged away by officers and soldiers because they were suspected to be inconsistent with the identity on the ID number plate. One of them stayed up all night because of cramming last night, and as a result, his beard grew longer, which was different from the micro-beard on the number plate.
' The characteristics didn't match, so he was dragged aside and questioned severely, and he almost got slapped in the mouth during the argument.
Such a detailed inspection resulted in extremely slow entry, and thousands of students from Lin'an Prefecture did not know when they would be able to enter.
Fang Zian and the other three patiently moved forward slowly with the team. Fortunately, the three of them could talk among themselves, which was not so boring. Interestingly, there were sneaky people there from time to time.
The students in the queue were walking around, selling the so-called 'latest leaked test questions' in a low voice and at a high price. Fang Zian and others naturally would not believe it, but some students were eager and would rather spend money to buy peace of mind.
Willing to miss any slim chance.
In this way, two hours have passed. The sun has set in the west, Fang Zian and others have also moved a few turns, and victory is in sight. Looking at the flow of people in the rear, they will definitely not be able to enter the stadium before dark, at least
It also takes the first update to complete everything.
At this moment, there was the sound of horse hooves on the south side of the already slightly empty square. More than a dozen horses trotted over and stopped in the open space. A young man in rich clothes jumped off his horse and walked directly surrounded by a group of tough guards.
Walking towards the entrance of Gongyuan. Several big men shouted loudly in front, pushing the students lining up in front of them to stagger. The person in charge of inspection in front of Gongyuan
Not only did the investigating officials and soldiers not stop him, but the two officials smiled and bowed to greet him.
"Who is this person? Is he a student participating in Qiuwei? Why don't you line up?" Some students shouted dissatisfied.
"Don't you even know him? Qin Tan, the fifth son of Qin, is the grandson of Prime Minister Qin. He will also attend the Autumn Festival with us this year." Someone next to him replied in a low voice.
"Ah. He is Qin Hui's grandson. No wonder it is like this." The student who asked the question stopped talking.
Qian Kang couldn't help it anymore and shouted loudly: "Prime Minister Qin's grandson? So what? Since he came to take the autumn exam, he should queue up like everyone else. Everyone has been waiting in line for a long time, why should he?"
You can go in directly? That’s not fair.”
Zhao Changlin said hurriedly: "Brother Qian, forget it, it's better not to care about this kind of thing. We can't care about it either."
Qian Kang stared at him and said, "What are you talking about? It's fine that we can't see the dark deeds behind the scenes, but we can also turn a blind eye to the unfairness under our noses? Then what's the use of taking the imperial examination?"
Zhao Changlin smacked his lips and looked at Fang Zian and said: "Brother Zian, please advise Brother Qian, this bad temper has come up again."
Fang Zian said solemnly: "Brother Qian is right, but what about Qin Hui's grandson? So many of us abide by the rules, why shouldn't he? Do you want privileges in such a major matter as the imperial examination? It's too blatant.
In this case, we don’t have to abide by the rules, you two, follow me."
Zhao Changlin was stunned, Qian Kang raised his big finger and said: "It is indeed the brother Zian I know."
Fang Zian didn't say anything. He put the box and cage on his shoulders and left the team and walked straight to the entrance of the Gongyuan. Qian Kang also followed after carrying the box and cage. Zhao Changlin stamped his feet and hurriedly followed behind the two of them.
Fang Zian walked twenty or thirty steps to the entrance of Gongyuan, when a servant noticed something strange and hurriedly came forward to stop him.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing?"
"We are candidates from Qiuwei, and we have to go to the hospital to take the exam. What's wrong?" Fang Zian said with a smile.
"Go, go, line up. Don't you understand the rules? Why are you trespassing?" the handyman frowned and waved his hands.
Fang Zian smiled and said: "Are we still waiting in line? Then why doesn't the person in front line up? If he doesn't line up, why should we line up? Are the rules only for us people?"
"Hey! Are you deliberately making trouble? Do you also compete with others? Do you know who he is? Qin Tan, the grandson of Prime Minister Qin, is known as the fifth son of Qin. Do you also compete with him?" the handyman shouted.
road.
"It doesn't matter whose grandson he is, since he is here to take the Qiuwei exam, he should line up like everyone else. Why should he be special? If he doesn't line up, it means that the rules are empty, so we don't have to line up." Qian.
Kangdao said.
"Hey, are you deliberately looking for trouble? Are you three going to cause trouble?" the handyman said angrily.
Fang Zian sneered and said: "We are not causing trouble. We are well-behaved candidates and have been waiting in line for a long time. You set the rules yourself and you broke them. You can't blame us. Unless you find it yourself.
Come and admit to us personally that your previous rules were only for ordinary students like us, and gave special care to Prime Minister Qin’s grandson. So many people see it, so it’s good to be a witness. We will publicize it later."
The two handymen looked at each other, and one of them said fiercely: "Okay, okay, we can't defeat you, but someone can cure you."
After saying that, a handyman ran towards the entrance and pointed at the two officials who were nodding and bowing to show their courtesy to the Fifth Young Master of Qin. The two officials turned their heads and looked this way with gloomy expressions.
The Fifth Young Master also looked over here.
"Brothers, please don't make yourself uncomfortable and leave quickly. Young Master Qin is not easy to mess with. If he wants to go in first, just let him go in. Don't get out of hand."
"Yes, the courage of the three of you is commendable, but don't hit the eggs against the rocks. Let's go quickly."
The students queuing up next to them kindly persuaded Fang Zian and the others. Most people thought that these three people were brave, but there was no need to cause unnecessary trouble.
Zhao Changlin looked at Fang Zian nervously, but saw that Fang Zian looked nonchalant as if nothing had happened. His heart was pounding, but he couldn't get off the tiger, so he had to swallow the words that came to his lips.
The two officials recruited several officers and soldiers to come over here, and the Fifth Young Master of Qin also followed over, waving his folding fan, as if he wanted to take a look at the excitement. The surrounding students were too frightened to speak, and they all secretly felt sorry for Fang Zi.
People sweated a lot.
"You three, are you going to cause trouble? Come here, take it and take it aside for trial." The group of people came closer, and an official gave an order loudly without saying a word.
The officers and soldiers rushed forward and tried to take someone, but Fang Zian shouted loudly: "Who dares! I have a law in the Song Dynasty. The three of us did not kill people, and we did not prevent fires. This gentleman took it when he opened his mouth.
What’s the basis for it? Could it be possible without the king’s method?”
A tall and thin official shouted coldly: "Just because you three are causing trouble here and disrupting the order of the Qiuwei Examination, you should be punished. Do you still think you have been wronged?"
Fang Zian sneered and said: "Why are the three of us making trouble? The three of us are all reference students. We have all the procedures and our qualifications can be reviewed. Where are we making trouble?"
"Bold, since you are a reference student, why don't you line up according to the rules and why are you pushing forward? Didn't you hear the rules just announced?" the official shouted.
Qian Kang said loudly: "We heard the rules, and we have been lining up according to the rules, but someone jumped in the queue and broke the rules. You didn't stop us. That means this rule is no longer a rule, and the three of us will
There is no need to abide by this rule, is there anything wrong with that?"
"You are so unbridled. Why are you trying to interfere with others? What do other people's affairs have to do with you? You guys just want to cause trouble." The official shouted sternly.
Fang Zian smiled and said: "It's nothing more than seeking privileges. I heard that this person is the fifth son of Qin, the grandson of Prime Minister Qin, so you opened the door to convenience and broke the rules. Students who are taking the exam should be treated equally.
How can people believe that the Qiuwei Examination is fair when such a small matter as admission is special? The Imperial Examination is a fair way to select scholars, and what matters is the word 'fairness'. What you do is contrary to the original intention of the imperial court.
Aren’t you afraid that the court will pursue you?”
The two officials were stunned. They didn't expect this student to be so bold. They thought they were trying to scare him, so they gave up. Unexpectedly, not only were they not afraid, but they also responded tit-for-tat. It was hard to refute what this guy said.
"Hahahaha. What did I think it was? It turned out that they were trying to squeeze me in. Seeing that I can get in, but you have to queue up, are you a little bit dissatisfied?" Mr. Qin Wu, who was standing beside him, laughed loudly.
Chapter completed!
