Haha, I beg my good friends to collect it, thank you very much!
?????????????????????????????????
As we progressed to the western suburbs, the number of people increased, and the rising sun shone softly on everyone. Xue Po reined up his horse and drove slowly at night, looking at the gentle figures one by one, and thought to himself: "This is the future pillar of Chu State."
Apart from the students, the most common people I saw were the officials. Along the way, there were two soldiers in full armor protecting me at intervals. From this, it seems that the entire Hangzhou Prefecture, led by He Ruhui, attaches great importance to this college examination.
.
The state of Chu valued literature, and the literary style was flourishing. Due to His Majesty the Emperor's preference, officials in various government offices also strongly supported literati.
Looking from a distance, not far ahead, there are several tall gray shadows bathing in the morning sun, covering an extremely large area, like a few giant beasts crawling there, motionless. Xue Poye knows that this is what is called
There is an examination shed, where the college examination will be held.
As we approach the examination shed, the guards are even tighter, with one sentry every five steps and one post every ten steps.
There are three entrances to the entrance, and tables are placed next to them. At each table, there are two examiners in official uniforms, and behind them are two guards with swords and armors. The tables are full of files, and students enter through the three entrances.
Check admission.
Xue Poye got off his horse and took the horse to the stable in the north. There were already many horses stored here. They were obviously the rides of wealthy children and were guarded by special personnel.
Just as he was about to see where Cui Xuezheng was and enter the venue, he suddenly heard a sharp scream coming from the front: "You are mistaken, I have already handed over..." The voice was extremely excited.
Xue Poye was extremely confused and looked over there. At the entrance, he saw a patched-up student being grabbed by the neck by a guard and pushed out. The students next to him were talking about it, some were gloating, some were gloating.
Sympathy, there are also things that have nothing to do with oneself.
The student Patch was pushed to the ground, rolled twice, got up again, threw himself over and shouted: "Several adults are accommodating, I... I just lost it, but I signed up for it."
The guard turned around and shouted coldly: "If you continue to entangle yourself and delay the college examination, I will definitely put you in jail and you will not retreat."
The Patch students stood there, not daring to step forward, and refused to retreat. For a long time, they covered their faces with their hands and squatted on the ground. A grown man started crying in front of everyone.
Everyone had no time to pay attention to him and went through the customs in an orderly manner.
Xue Poye walked by the man and heard him crying very sadly. He couldn't help but said: "How can a man cry so unbecomingly?" He ignored him and walked straight to the entrance.
Student Patch grabbed Xue Poye's lapel and shouted: "Brother, help me, brother, help me!"
Xue Poye hurriedly broke away and said angrily: "What are you doing? Get out of the way." He broke away the student's hand and found out that the student was only in his twenties. His appearance was ordinary, but his mouth was big and fierce.
The phrase "big mouth eats up the world" comes to mind, which really suits this person.
The student repeatedly clasped his fists and said: "Brother, help me, brother, help me."
Xue Poye frowned and said: "You are doing well, no disaster or illness, just save your damn life."
"Hey!" The student's tears were still wet, and he shook his head and said with a grimace: "Brother, please find Master Xuezheng after entering the room, and ask Master Xuezheng to be merciful and let me in to take the exam."
Xue Poye said curiously: "Yes, since you are taking the exam, why aren't you allowed in?"
The student said sadly and angrily: "I had submitted my name roll before and was registered in the register, but... my name roll was accidentally lost. They said I didn't have a name roll and they wanted to pretend to be someone else, so they wouldn't let me in. I
...I am really You Shaoqing."
Xue Poye didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He shrugged and said: "The fishermen don't have nets when fishing, the farmers don't plow the fields, and the soldiers don't have guns when they go into battle. What do you think is the difference between you and them?" He thought to himself: "It turns out that this guy's name is You Shaoqing, and his name is like a cow.
very."
You Shaoqing sat on the ground, with his head hanging, and he was somewhat remorseful, muttering: "I was selling pears on the street to make a few meals, but who knew that someone... um... had my name roll stolen."
"Selling pears?" Xue Poye laughed out loud and looked at You Shaoqing carefully. He never expected that such a shabby-looking guy could still sell pears.
However, scholars have always looked down upon businessmen, and even small businessmen and hawkers scorned him. You Shaoqing did not shy away from saying that he sells pears, so he is an honest person.
You Shaoqing was a little embarrassed, but still said: "Brother, could you please go in and see Master Xuezheng and explain it to me, otherwise I will have to wait another year. Master Xuezheng is aware of everything and will naturally understand the misunderstanding and let me into the examination room.
"
Xue Poye secretly laughed in his heart: "You know everything about academic affairs? This is the first time I have heard this." Looking at You Shaoqing's pity, he thought about it. If he can't take the exam now, it will be a waste of a year. After thinking about it, he said: "
I may not be able to meet the academic master, but I will keep this in mind for you. If I can talk to the academic administrator, I will naturally say something." Seeing that most of the students entered the examination room, he said:
"I have to go in." Without further words, he walked towards the entrance.
You Shaoqing looked expectantly at Xue Poye as he passed the entrance, feeling quite uneasy.
"Famous paper!" The examiner stared at Xue Poye and stretched out his hand lazily.
Xue Poye smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot to bring my name scroll."
The examiner's expression darkened and he said directly: "Without a name sheet, my identity cannot be confirmed. I am not allowed to enter the examination room. Please leave."
Xue Poye smiled calmly. Although he was a little uneasy in his heart, he did not dare to think that Cui Xuezheng was in the background. He should have said hello. He whispered: "Student Xue Poye, I forgot to bring my famous roll."
When the examiner heard the words "Xue Poye", he was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Oh, the academic master has already given the explanation." He searched for it on the table, took out a sign and handed it to Xue Poye.
, said: "Go in."
Xue Poye took the sign and saw a few small vermilion characters written on it: "Four sheds, thirty-three!"
Xue Poye immediately understood that this should be his seat, and he felt very emotional in his heart. No matter what dynasty or era, this right is really a good thing. Things that ordinary people may not be able to do with all their efforts, in the face of the power
, it was just a matter of one sentence, so he simply said: "Your Excellency, that You Shaoqing is also a student who participated in this college examination. It is true that he accidentally lost his roll. Please be accommodating and let him take the examination."
The examiner frowned and followed Xue Poye's hand to look at the anxious You Shaoqing over there. He was silent for a moment and finally said: "Xue Poye, you enter the examination room first. Just leave this matter to me. Go quickly."
Since the examiner agreed, Xue Poye had fulfilled his promise and walked in without saying much, holding the sign.
After walking a few steps, a large wooden sign suddenly hung in front of me, which read: "Those who cheat and violate the order of the examination room will have their academic status permanently revoked once verified, and will not be allowed to refer to the exam for life!" It was shocking. It was probably to warn those candidates who wanted to cheat.
There are a total of four examination booths this time, each of which can accommodate more than 200 candidates.
Hangzhou is a prosperous place with the most prosperous literary style and the largest number of students. Compared with the examinations in other prefectures in Dachu, the scene is much larger and there are many more candidates taking the examination.
Every three examiners invigilated one examination booth, a total of twelve. The academic supervisors inspected the exams at will, and as soon as Xue Poye entered the examination room, he not only felt the excitement and nervousness of the candidates, but also felt the seriousness and concern hanging over his head.
Feeling of oppression.
Because each examination room is supervised by more than a dozen soldiers wearing armor, patrolling back and forth. Once a cheater is found, he will be expelled immediately. As for those who carry books and write cheating answers on their clothes, they are of no use at this time.
, these dozen soldiers and three examiners are not only sharp-eyed, but most importantly, every time these people detect a cheater, they will receive a generous reward, so for these invigilators, it is very expected that there will be cheating.
Guys, you can get money out of them.
The Great Chu State values literati and respects literati. In the previous dynasty, body searches and clothes searches were exempted. However, the inspection system in the examination room was much harsher and more cautious. Not only did the number of invigilators increase sharply, but the consequences of cheating were also discovered.
It's very serious. The previous dynasty just stopped letting him take the exam. There would still be a chance next year, but Da Chu destroyed him immediately. If he was caught, he would lose his way to become an official and his school status would be lost forever. Therefore, the behavior of cheating is in
There are very few Da Chu dynasties, but of course, they are by no means non-existent.
Xue Poye found his place amidst the noise of Xixi's shouting. It was no different from the ancient examination room seen on TV. It was a square small corridor of several square meters, with tables, chairs, pens and ink placed in it.
The inkstones are also put away.
Xue Poye saw that the candidates all found their own corridor and stood in front of the corridor honestly without going in. Knowing that this might be the rule of the examination room, he followed the example of others and stood in front of the corridor, thinking in his heart
I was quite excited. I never thought that I would be lucky enough to take such an exam. It would be an extremely interesting experience.
I don’t know how long it took, but the two rows of the shed were filled with people. There were poor students, and there were also candidates from rich and famous families. However, after entering the examination room, everyone was extremely well-behaved. This is a habit that has always been formed in the Great Chu Kingdom.
Social customs and the order of the examination room. No matter what your status is, you must behave yourself when entering the examination room. The examiner is the most powerful person in the examination room. For the sake of rewards and a little responsibility, he is extremely strict.
When everyone entered the room, the three examiners and the patrol soldiers were also in their places. Everyone was solemn and serious, whether they were majestic or obscene, their gazes made the candidates tremble.
"Dong dong dong!"
A loud drum beat sounded, deep and deep, reaching everyone's ears.dd
