Chapter 286: Opening the Book

(The imperial examination system of this book is different from history, please do not take the right name!)

The Imperial Examination Academy, also known as "Governance Academy", covers a considerable area. The layout has been arranged in a row. Each row is almost the same, with an aisle in the middle, and on both sides of the left and right there is a house next to each other.

According to statistics, the total number of this number house has reached as many as a thousand.

There are hundreds of other rooms behind, forming a large area to form a brilliant building complex. Even in the capital, it is fascinating and is a landmark-like existence.

On the lintel of the horn house, there are famous brands corresponding to the candidates. After the scholars enter the venue, they must take the seats in a close position and sit upright in the narrow horn house.

The provincial examination lasts for three days.

Within these three days, no candidate is allowed to leave the vocational hall, eat, drink, defecate and urinate. It can be said that this imperial examination not only tests the talents of scholars, but also has extraordinary patience.

However, who can charge into the provincial examination and enter the provincial examination without experiencing many cases? There are many cases. I have adapted to the provincial examination environment early in the morning.

Ye Junsheng should be an exception, but as a sorcerer, sitting in meditation for three days is nothing. He just thinks that this ancient scholar was really too cruel.

It is said that the ancient Buddha of Qinglan is infinitely lonely. Before scholars achieve fame, the loneliness they endure may not be inferior, and they may even be better.

I also think of historical allusions such as "hanging the beam and stabbing the thighs", which is really not to deceive me.

It is precisely because of this that hard work can calm people's minds and keep their minds far.

About half an hour later, all the scholars and candidates found their own house and sat in.

This time I sat there, I was silent, and the huge examination room was quiet.

Soon, officials from all kinds of people came on stage, chief examiner, supervisor, inspector, deacon, etc., one by one, with a tall figure and a serious expression.

The officials took their place. Someone first read the regulations and disciplines according to the script. After reading them, eunuchs appeared and read the imperial edict.

This imperial edict was specially written by the emperor. The theme is to encourage all candidates to write articles carefully and show their skills.

After listening to the imperial edict, the scholars were extremely passionate and motivated.

After completing the previous various processes, the examiner will take out the exam questions when the official opening time is completed.

This test question was covered with a red seal and sealed tightly. At this moment, Kaifeng took the question under the gaze of everyone.

Soon, the three topics of the Four Books were announced.

Immediately afterwards, the topic of the Five Classics and Four Paths.

Together, the two have to write seven articles, which together form the content of the first examination on the first day of the provincial examination.

For seven articles, the minimum number of words per article is 300, which is generally controlled within a thousand words. To sum up, the minimum number is about three or four thousand words, which is not a small number.

The characters in this era were very expensive. In addition, writing with a brush increases the difficulty. It is definitely different from later generations. If you type on the keyboard, don’t say a few thousand words. Some tricks are not stressful for 20,000 to 30,000 a day.

The title is announced and the timing is officially started.

At the same time, all the candidates began to meditate on the topic.

First, then write a draft, and then carefully ponder, and then carefully write it before you can copy it neatly. During the copying process, the calligraphy must be upright and clear, and must be in regular script, and there must be no ambiguity. If the tip of the pen shakes and ink splashes out, there is no doubt that this article is invalid and needs to be copied again.

In this way, the energy and effort spent is quite tormenting, and time is even more urgent.

The first game of the first day, seven articles. As long as one of them performs incorrectly, it means it is eliminated and it is impossible to win back.

Things like learning from strengths and weaknesses are almost impossible to happen in the imperial examination.

The candidates frowned and had their own moods. The officials responsible for inspection and supervision walked on the aisles from time to time, patrolling with sharp eyes.

"Um?"

The official suddenly saw a candidate not writing, but lying straight on the small bed in the hood and fell asleep.

"Good guy, what's the origin?"

He has been invigilating for many years and has seen countless people. He has seen all kinds of candidates, but he has never seen such a person before. He entered the account house early in the morning and actually fell asleep.

Could it be a self-deprecating guy?

But it’s wrong. Even candidates who are unsure will answer questions. Try your luck and will never give up automatically as soon as the exam begins. In this case, it’s better not to enter the market.

Or maybe, this child is unlucky and sick?

Very likely.

Candidates are under too much pressure and often stay up late to study hard with the light. Examples of illness often occur.

The disease is divided into severity and severe. Ordinary colds can only be consumed. If you really can't hold on, you can ask someone to send it out for treatment. Of course, you can't come back to continue the exam after going out.

So this exam is really like a "barbecue", both physically and mentally, and it is suffering.

"Ye Junsheng, a very familiar name."

After seeing the name on the account house, the official flashed his mind and suddenly remembered: Ye Junsheng, isn’t he the most talented man in the world?

I really didn't expect that this guy fell to bed and went to bed as soon as he entered the venue. What's the rhythm?

Madman?

By the way, he won the first place in Yangzhou, but he did not come to meet the saint and received the reward plaque. At that time, many people regarded him as a crazy person and was criticized by many people. Now, it was true.

The so-called "crazy life" has existed since ancient times. It is crazy and arrogant, cynical, and will always do some behaviors that are not understood by others.

For example, Ye Junsheng is sleeping in the exam room now.

It is either for self-confidence, for confrontation, or for rebellion, and for the sake of showing rebellion.

The official frowned, ignored it, walked away and continued to patrol.

The freedom of candidates to sleep in the account house is their own. As long as they do not snore and do not interfere with other candidates, the invigilator has no right to interfere.

Anyway, the final result is only the candidates who bear it themselves.

Ye Junsheng is indeed sleeping, but it has nothing to do with Kuangsheng. His mental state is really tired.

Being ambushed by a person, it made Nan Ke’s dream, and he experienced countless experiences in his dreams, which caused considerable mental damage. If it were an ordinary person, he would be afraid that he would be as weak as mud and would not even be able to climb the imperial examination institute.

Ye Junsheng insisted on entering the venue and recorded seven test questions. But he knew that it was not appropriate to start writing at this moment to avoid all kinds of mistakes. Instead, hasteness would be ineffective. So he simply lay down with his clothes, took a nap, and then talked about it.

This sleep took more than an hour.

It was noon, and there were people in the examination room who delivered meals one by one.

The sound woke Ye Junsheng up. He sat up and received the meal first. But it was very crude, with a can of clean water and two dried pancakes.

This kind of delivery also has factors that prevent cheating. It is simple and clear at a glance.

I took a bite of cake and a sip of water and it took me a short time to deal with it.
