Lin Jue also suffered some difficulties at this level, but it was for another reason. When he entered the house and was ordered to take off his clothes for inspection, several soldiers saw Lin Juesheng's handsomeness and planned to laugh at Lin Jue. If
If he is handsome but the thing underneath is short, it is exactly in line with the saying, "Silver pewter spear head is not good for appearance but useless." Several soldiers despise the most handsome young man. For this kind of handsome young man,
People feel some hatred for no reason, so they prepare themselves to laugh at it.
However, when Lin Jue took off his clothes, what the guys saw through a thin layer of cloth was a huge mallet with staggering size and thickness. They were stunned with shock. It was unreasonable. Not only did this young man get angry.
It's simply unacceptable that he is so handsome, yet so well-financed.
Perhaps out of revenge, when they checked the bedding and dry food later, it was obvious that a few people had an evil spirit. They cut dozens of sugar cookies that Lu Wu made for Lin Jue in a mess. It took Lu Wu a whole night to cut them.
The cashmere inside the cashmere quilt that was closely sewn for Lin Jue was torn all over the floor. They even broke several brushes that Lin Jue brought. If they hadn't seen Lin Jue's eyes glaring and getting angry, they might not even have the last brush.
The wolf hair pen will also be broken.
Lin Jue was angry in his heart, but he had no choice. The reason why the imperial examinations in the Zhou Dynasty were so strict was precisely because there had been too many frauds in the examination hall over the years, and many people's heads were moved because of this. This also caused great damage.
In order to destroy the credibility of the imperial examination, corruption in the imperial examination can be said to have shaken the foundation of the Zhou Dynasty. Everyone in the imperial court knew this. Therefore, starting from the hands of the late emperor, they adopted a severe and high-pressure crackdown on fraud in the examination room. "Sometimes correction is necessary.
"Excessive." These are the original words of the late emperor. Under this principle, there is such an incredible strip search. This search method is actually an insult to the candidates. If it were not for the
Under such circumstances, how could the Zhou Dynasty, which was so civilized, behave in such an insulting manner?
After an extremely severe interrogation, the disheveled students were allowed to enter the examination room, carrying tattered bedding, torn dry food boxes, and carrying the messy Four Treasures of the Study. Of course, they were also humiliated.
I felt extremely bad afterwards.
The posture in the examination room is even more frightening. There are ten posts, one post, five steps and one sentry. The soldiers are angry and the officials have cold eyes. On the surrounding walls and in the turrets, there are soldiers condescendingly monitoring the entire place.
It was in this atmosphere that the pillars of the country entered the examination room in trepidation and embarrassment, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
In the examination room, rows of old dormitories stand densely packed. Because they are only used once every three years, few people come to repair and take care of them on weekdays. The sky is cloudy and rainy, the wind is invading and the sun is eclipsing, and the entire Gongyuan is exuded.
There was a gloomy atmosphere, with the smell of rotting wood and mildew everywhere. This was especially true inside the Gongyuan. The situation in the newly built dormitories on the street outside the Gongyuan was much better. It was a pity that Lin Jue's Ding No. 130
House No. 8 is located within Gongyuan.
When Lin Jue walked into this dilapidated rectangular dormitory that was less than five feet wide and less than seven feet deep, he couldn't believe his eyes. There was a pungent musty smell everywhere in the dormitory, and the green bricks in the corners were
The ground was covered with green moss, and the ground was wet and dry. There was a small puddle of water in a depression. The wind blew from nowhere, making people feel chilly. Lin Jue didn't know this situation.
How to describe the mood.
During the majestic Zhou Dynasty, the prosperous Hangzhou Gongyuan Hall was actually in such a dilapidated appearance. The rumors I heard before turned out to be true. According to Lin Jue’s old senior at Songshan Academy, the Hangzhou Gongyuan Hall could only be
Using the word "pig shed" to describe it, a person who stays in one for three days is like a pig raised in it. The old senior said that it is not the amount of money it costs to repair these sheds, but the court did it deliberately.
It is just a simple repair. It is said to have profound meaning. It means to remind every candidate that if they want to embark on the road to success, they must remember that success begins with hardship. The three days of the exam are not only an academic but also a learning experience.
This kind of training is also a kind of mental and physical experience. Just like a phoenix rising in a grass nest or a dragon soaring in a mire, they all have profound meanings.
When Lin Jue heard these words at first, he didn't care at all, because in his last life, he took the exam four times in the Hangzhou Gongyuan Hall, and the hall in his impression definitely did not look so shabby. Although the layout was the same, the same small and cramped, but
It's definitely not as miserable as it seems in front of me. So when I heard the senior said this, I thought it was the senior who had passed three exams who was bragging and chatting. But now I discovered that it was really the case. This also further proved that Lin Jue's
I have a premonition that many things in this life are different from the previous life. And my hope that the questions of this imperial examination will be the same as those in the previous life may also be in vain.
In any case, now is no longer the time to complain. In fact, most candidates don't care about the bad housing. What they think in their hearts is that they have to rack their brains to change their destiny in these three days. In fact, the bad housing does not matter.
It doesn't matter. If you answer the question badly, that's really bad.
At this moment, more than 30,000 candidates finally entered the examination room. Although there were tens of thousands of people in the dormitories on the entire street, the examination room was unexpectedly silent.
Finally, the examiner gave the order, and more than a dozen teams of soldiers, led by several deputy invigilators, walked along their respective areas. One person from each team began to read the rules of the examination room loudly. These rules were nothing more than a few
The precautions and rules for answering questions, the penalties for cheating, etc. are so detailed that they are almost cumbersome. For example, the rules for answering questions stipulate that if the words are written outside the prescribed range of answering questions, the imperial examination results will be invalid. Each line of the article is seventeen
Any word that is too many or too few will be invalidated. There are more than thirty rules and regulations that are difficult to understand.
The monotonous and harsh reading echoed over the examination room. All the candidates stood still in the pigsty-like dormitory with their heads bowed, waiting for the end of the sound. Fortunately, the rules were soon announced to be completed. There was a long ""
The sound of "lock the number" spread throughout the entire examination room after more than ten people relayed it. Next, the sound of clanging wooden doors was heard one after another, and the sound of iron chains jingled. All the wooden doors of the dormitories were wrapped with chains, and with big
The lock is tight. Except for the small open square on the wooden door, the entire dormitory is completely isolated from the outside world.
The test papers were handed in one by one through the small hole in the wooden door of the dormitory. At three o'clock, three trumpets sounded in the sky, and the three-day autumn exam finally officially began.
…
Today is the first test, and the test is "Tie Jing" and "Mo Yi". This is the easiest test among the three days. But for those who study seriously and hard, "Tie Jing and Mo Yi" should not be an obstacle. Of course.
It is not without difficulty. After all, it involves eight or nine classic works, and it is not easy to memorize them all and know their meaning. This difficulty is only compared to writing articles such as poems, poems, and strategies with real skills later.
in terms of aspects.
In fact, the arrangement of this kind of examination is somewhat scientific. When entering the examination room on the first day, the candidates and students are actually very nervous psychologically, and the messy interrogation will also make the candidates feel uneasy. At this time, the examination will
This kind of test questions, which focuses on rote memorization, can just relieve their mood. It must be a bit difficult to do the essay as soon as they start. After the first day, many people have calmed down and adapted to the atmosphere of the test. At that time,
I will show my true ability in the later stages.
Lin Jue took the questions and only glanced at them a few times before sighing with a wry smile. The test questions were completely different from the test questions in his memory for the first exam. The luck he had before was completely shattered. This further proved that in this life,
There were great differences in many things from the previous life, which also strengthened Lin Jue's confidence that he could not judge the situation based on experience.
The different test questions did not make Lin Jue feel depressed. He was not in a hurry to answer the questions, but began to clean the musty dormitory. Lin Jue couldn't stand being trapped here for three days.
It was cold, musty and had a strange smell. Fortunately, there were brooms and other items in each dormitory. Lin Juezai carefully cleaned the dormitory. Gathering the moss in the corners and garbage on the ground into the potholes.
Tread it firmly with your feet. Stamp a few adobe bricks on the ground and sprinkle the dust on the ground to absorb moisture. After struggling for a long time, I finally cleaned up the visible garbage and mildew in the dormitory. Then I took out the small incense burner and lit it.
I took a few rose incense tablets, and as the smoke dispersed, the strange smell in the dormitory was finally covered by the soothing scent of the incense tablets, and my breathing became easier.
Next, Lin Jue took out the small iron stove he brought in. This is a stove that is lit with lamp oil. It is very small and similar to the alcohol stoves on earth. Dozens of wicks are lit and can be used for cooking.
There was a small water tank in the corner, which had been filled with water for three days. Lin Jue filled a small copper pot with half a pot of water and put it on the stove to boil. He also took out the water that had been taken in.
The soldier brought some crumbled tea cakes, wrapped a small bag in a cloth and threw them into the pot to make tea.
Soon after, the scent of rose scent mixed with tea filled the dormitory. Lin Jue made a cup of hot tea and sat on the wooden board to drink tea slowly. After drinking the tea, he felt a lot more comfortable and settled.
A lot.
The invigilators wandering outside passed by the wooden corridor in front of the dormitory and were attracted by the scene in D-138 House. They looked at the young man enjoying tea in the dormitory in surprise.
Others have already started writing furiously, so this one is doing well, making tea and burning incense to enjoy. However, after the candidates enter the dormitory, the time to answer the questions is decided by themselves. As long as they don't cheat or cause trouble, I can't control them.
So the official who invigilated the exam had nothing to say and just shook his head and walked away. He thought to himself: I am afraid that this guy is from a rich family and cannot bear the hardship. I am afraid that this autumn exam is just going through the motions, knowing that he will not pass.
