As soon as Huang Junheng came over, he saw Gu Chengyu stuffing dried meat into his mouth quickly and gracefully. He was still thinking that this boy had a good appetite early in the morning! He almost vomited after eating dry food in the past two days.
Gu Chengyu wanted to roll his eyes, but he had to smile and say hello.
There were more and more people, even Sun Xian and Zheng Lun came over.
"Chengyu! You're so early!" Zheng Lun saw Gu Chengyu's eyes light up, and he knew that Gu Chengyu would be earlier than them.
As soon as he got close to Gu Chengyu, he smelled a strange smell, "What does it smell like on you? Is your dried meat bad? Are you still eating such a strong smell?"
Zheng Lun and the others didn't know that Gu Chengyu had a bad name, so they thought it was the smell of dried meat and steamed buns in Gu Chengyu's test basket.
Gu Chengyu choked and almost rolled his eyes. He quickly picked up the bamboo tube on the side and drank some saliva.
Didn't you come here to see his joke? Didn't you see that the smile on Min Feng's face couldn't stop? He even took two steps back, as if he was avoiding him like a snake.
Gu Chengyu took a deep breath. He was used to it, and he actually felt that the smell on his body wasn't that big, right?
"I've been assigned a bad number." Gu Chengyu pretended to be calm and said.
Zheng Lun and Ye Zhiqiu, who came from behind, were dumbfounded. Then Zheng Lun laughed and said, "Then you continue."
Then several people also sat across from Gu Chengyu, and Gu Chengyu became furious when he saw this.
The other candidates looked at Gu Chengyu sympathetically, and then took two steps to the side.
Gu Chengyu thought to himself that in three days, the smell on his body would be stronger, and then he would stand among them, enjoying himself alone would not be as enjoyable as everyone else.
"Oh! That's really unfortunate!" It was Liu Haonan who said this. His expression was extremely exaggerated and he took a big step back.
The second test was policy theory, which also had five questions.
Gu Chengyu tore off a piece of cloth from his outer robe, made a simple mask, and put it on his face. As expected, he felt much better than before.
Gu Chengyu took a look and felt that it was not difficult. It was very similar to the strategies of the previous exams. He was a little surprised. The questions in this exam were too simple, right? However, it may not be easy to write well. After all, the questions were just ordinary, and the candidates were also
It's hard to come up with new ideas.
In fact, Gu Chengyu didn't know. He thought it was easy, but others found it difficult!
After staying in the dormitory for another three days, Gu Chengyu still handed in his papers early and went to the corridor. His head was a little dizzy, probably due to the poisonous gas.
"Chengyu! It will take another three days, you must hold on!" Sun Xian saw that Gu Chengyu looked a little haggard and quickly comforted him.
Gu Chengyu still felt like vomiting when he smelled the smell on his body. He had already vomited once today.
Gu Chengyu waved his hand, "There are still three days, of course I can get through it."
"I wonder what happened to the examinee caught two days ago, Chengyu! He seems to be opposite you, right?" Ye Zhiqiu thought of the examinee who cheated two days ago. They couldn't get out of Gongyuan, so he didn't know what to do with the examinee.
"It's strange! It's said that it was copied on the outer robe. Why didn't you find it in the search?" Sun Xian also felt strange. He thought of bribery, but he couldn't say it here. There were two guards in the corner over there.
Watch it!
"Who says it's not? Alas! Let me tell you, those cheaters are really hateful. It's not an exaggeration to say that we are just hanging around for the sake of the exam. They don't work hard and just want to take advantage of others. It's too whimsical."
When a candidate saw Sun Xian and the others chatting about cheating, he intervened indignantly and said a few words.
The third test was about the Four Books. Gu Chengyu heard from the doctor from the Imperial College that the format of the Four Books might be changed this year, making it more stringent than the previous format. Gu Chengyu immediately thought of the Eight-part Writing.
After the test papers were handed out, Gu Chengyu took a closer look at the questions. There were seven questions, and each question had a specified number of words, ranging from 200 to 300 words for a short question, and 600 words for a long question.
Gu Chengyu read the first question, which was "Where the Weimin Stops", which comes from a line in the Song of Poetry and Business, ""The country is thousands of miles away, but where the Weimin stops, it spreads across the four seas."
Seeing "What Weimin stopped", Gu Chengyu remembered the literary inquisition that occurred during the Yongzheng period in his previous life.
Fortunately, this is not a cut-and-answer question. If it were just "dimensional", many candidates would really not know the source.
Gu Chengyu then looked at the second question, which was "The king hastily issued an order to counterattack". What kind of question was this? Gu Chengyu thought for a moment and then remembered that it came from Mencius, "The king issued an order quickly and counterattacked."
Gu Chengyu shook his head. Just now he said that there was no question about interception and matching, but now it has come out.
Fortunately, the next few questions were more regular. I kept looking until the last question. This question only had one word "two". Gu Chengyu wanted to spit out blood. There was only one word "two". Who knows where it came from?
It seems that the difficulty of this exam is coming later! Also, how can it be possible for you to pass the exam easily? He may need to spend some time thinking about the last question, and he plans to do the previous questions first, the last question, and other
Let’s talk about it after everything is done.
Gu Chengyu spent two days doing all the previous test questions. When it was the last question, he began to think hard.
Gu Chengyu thought that there were many chapters in the Analects of Confucius where "two" appeared, and he had to carefully consider which one it was.
Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, and then confidently wrote the question on the draft paper. He felt that the word "二" was an independent sentence, "Say: Two, I am still not enough, how thorough it is."
This sentence comes from the twelfth chapter of Yan Yuan's chapter in the Analects of Confucius. Gu Chengyu can be sure that it definitely comes from this article. The official who asked this question is also "second". He can imagine that such a question is asked in the hearts of the candidates.
How to curse.
These questions are quite difficult. It is difficult to admit about 300 people this time. Not to mention the last question, the previous questions can also block many candidates who do not have solid foundation.
Fortunately, Gu Chengyu has an almost photographic memory, otherwise it would be difficult to take the imperial examination in ancient times! To do well in articles, you have to learn and apply them. Reading alone is not enough. Therefore, this requires experience. No wonder the ancients
They all like to go on study tours.
The dormitory opposite Gu Chengyu was empty, and he couldn't help but sigh. Even if the man wanted to smell the smell of the toilet, he couldn't smell it anymore.
The sky was getting dark, and Gu Chengyu put away the test paper and pen and ink halfway through writing. He had already done it quickly enough. All the previous test questions had been copied on the test paper, and he only had to wait for the last question to be finished.
After blowing out the candle and checking it, Gu Chengyu took off his outer robe and stepped down. He felt that the clothes on his body looked very much like Pickle Bunch, not to mention wrinkled, and there was a strong smell on it.
He encouraged himself in his heart. He would stay up one more night today, and after finishing the papers tomorrow, he would leave this stinking number. He couldn't bear it for one day, it was simply destroying him.
Especially those candidates passing by, he could feel their sympathetic gazes even through the brick wall.
