The hard work left the hall all night long, and the lights and red characters were blurred.
The candidates felt relieved after finishing the test, but the examiners were busy at this time, reviewing the test papers at night, and their eyes were dazzled.
In the Southern Zhili Provincial Examination, the examiners were all from the Hanlin Academy, and there were two examiners: the chief examiner and the deputy examiner. The examiners were Zhang Tao, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and Wang Da, the examiner. The two Hanlin bachelors were both from other provinces. Zhang Tao was a little older, but Wang Da was also the examiner.
They are all fifty. In addition to the two chief and deputy examiners, there are nine co-examiners in Nanzhili, which is about three more than the co-examiners in other provinces. These nine co-examiners are recommended by the censor.
The recommended officials, county magistrates, and instructors hired are from other provinces.
The test papers of Zhu Pingan and other candidates were in the hands of these two examiners and nine co-examiners.
During the grading process, the examiner and the co-examiner have a clear division of labor. The examiner is the examiner, and the examiner is the examiner. How to say, the examiner selects outstanding test papers from more than 10,000 candidates and recommends them to the examiner.
The examiner will finally determine the admitted students from the recommended test papers and determine the ranking of the admitted students.
The examiner's review began after Zhu Ping'an and the others finished their first exam. The candidates' test papers were written with ink pens, called "ink rolls." After handing in the papers, they were numbered and copied with ink pens as "zhu rolls" and proofread.
If it is correct, it will be sent to the co-examiner for review. The co-examiner will review the selected test paper and then recommend it to the examiner, which is called a "recommended paper".
The chief and deputy examiners review the test papers recommended by the house officer, focusing on the first test. After reading, they will review and discuss with each other based on the situation in the second and third tests, and decide on the midpoint. Therefore, for the seven-part and eight-part first test papers, if the candidates answer well,
That's more than half the battle, maybe this is the so-called first impression.
Papers that are "clicked" by the same examiner are called "failed papers". There is no chance that the paper will be dropped. As a rule, the examiner will also select among the failed papers to see if there are suitable papers before making up for them.
, this is called "searching for legacy". Of course, generally speaking, the examiner is often accustomed to saving trouble and only reads the papers recommended by the same examiner and leaves the rest without asking.
Anyway, it's snowing heavily outside, and the marking site is in full swing. It's dark outside, and the marking site is lit with torches and lights. The examiners are working overtime to mark the test papers.
The candidates who were enjoying the snow and drinking outside and enjoying their post-exam time had no idea how their examination papers were being treated.
Zhu Ping'an was also admiring the snow at the restaurant at this time. This was the backyard of a restaurant, and the lights all night long would not violate the curfew. There was something special about the falling snow falling under the bright lights. The fat man was chattering beside him, waving his fat paws, and talking.
Mo Hengfei said as if not admitting him would be a disservice to the two sages Confucius and Mencius.
"Brother Zhu, you don't know how well I answered this time."
The fat man Xue Chi was chewing mutton, dancing and excited.
"Yeah." Zhu Ping'an hummed noncommittally, looking at the thick snow outside under the light. It was calm.
"Don't believe it, this time I got tested in a field that I'm good at. It's hard to pass or not." The fat man picked up a chicken drumstick. He took one bite and looked extremely confident.
This makes Zhu Ping'an a little curious, what are the areas that Fatty is good at?
Seeing Zhu Ping'an's curious eyes, the fat man's expression was filled with pride. He wiped his mouth with his fat hand and started blowing, "You think it's strange. How come the provincial examination also tests the relationship between children?"
Hearing this, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but think of the words "I'm not thinking about it". He looked at the fat man with some constipation, didn't he think of this guy as his sister and I was thinking about him?
"Sister, I'm thinking about it. Hahaha, you said this is the same question. I don't remember this sentence in the Four Books and Five Classics, but these are not important. The important thing is that I am good at this. I think I read all over Fengyang back then.
size"
Sure enough, in the next second, the fat man was as confident as a shining little sun, and his face was so excited that it was as red as fire.
There should be a soundtrack at this time, fire, I am fire
Hearing this, Zhu Ping'an looked at the fat man with a constipated expression, speechless, how did this guy pass the county examination?
Just when Zhu Pingan was looking at the fat man with constipation, Zhu Pingan didn't know that at this time, it was time for his test paper to be reviewed by the marking officer.
It has to be said that Zhu Pingan was really unlucky. His test paper fell into the hands of fellow examiner Song Shiming. Song Shiming was a Confucian instructor in Zunhua County, Jizhou, Shuntian Prefecture. He was not as "Shiming" as his name suggests.
He is more conservative.
At this time, our Song Tongkao had already worked overtime and was overloaded with grading papers. I have to say that Song Tongkao was quite hard. While wiping sweat with a towel, he took out a review from a pile of test papers.
That's right, the test paper in Song Tongkao's hand at this time was Zhu Pingan's test paper.
Zhu Ping'an's fate is now in the hands of Song Tongkao. Song Tongkao can decide to recommend the test paper to the examiner to "recommend the paper", or he can decide to click the test paper away and "reject".
A sudden north wind roared outside, picking up snowflakes all over the ground and hitting the window without any warning.
Song Tongkao, who was close to the window, was caught off guard by the cold air that came in from the window crack. He was so hot that he was sweating just now, but now his hands and feet were cold again!
It's hot and cold, and Song Tongkao's mood is not as bad as usual.
However, when Song Tongkao quickly calmed down and looked at the test paper in his hand with the attitude of being responsible for the candidates.
Then, his bad mood, which he had just put away, suddenly changed.
Worse!
"Let me go, what the hell is written here!"
Song Tongkao looked at the test paper in his hand, as if he saw the goddess he had chased for eighteen years taking off her clothes, revealing a penis that was even stronger than his own.
Ever since, our fellow student Song muttered something disgusting as if he had swallowed Rexiang, and casually threw the test paper in his hand, which was Zhu Pingan's test paper, to the ground!
Lost!
The treatment is even worse than the treatment for those who failed. At least the papers they failed are still piled up on a few desks in the corner. Maybe there will be a fellow examinee or the examiner who is free to rummage through the pile, and maybe he will be able to turn over.
However, Zhu Pingan's test paper was thrown to the ground. It didn't even have a chance to be flipped over. There was no chance at all. It was worse than losing the paper! The fighter who was losing the paper was lost.
VIP in!
After throwing Zhu Pingan's test paper to the ground, our Song Tongkao picked up the terrible mood and continued to devote himself to the cause of selecting talents for the country. He took another test paper again, meticulous, concentrated, and devoted ten thousand times.
reviewed
Life is like this. When you meet the wrong person at the right time, you can only leave a sigh and sadness. This is life.
Of course, Zhu Ping'an, who was looking at the fat man with a constipated look on his face, didn't know that his test paper was thrown to the ground after being looked at with a look on his face.
but
Still nothing
Fate turned a corner at this time. Just when Zhu Pingan was about to become a failed student, the goddess of fate winked at Zhu Pingan and smiled playfully.
Just when Zhu Ping'an's test paper was thrown to the ground by our Song Tongkao and fluttering down, the door was pushed open.
That's right, it's such a coincidence, even the script couldn't be more clever.
Our examiner just opened the door and walked in, just in time to see this scene, and our classmate Zhu Pingan's test paper just happened to fall at the examiner's feet.
So, our examiner bent down and picked up Zhu Ping'an's test paper from the ground. He held it in his hand. He was shocked at the first glance. He looked at it carefully for a long time at the second and third glance. Then he walked to our colleague Song's exam room.
In front of him, he pressed Zhu Pingan's test paper on the table and expressed his conclusion:
