Prime Minister

Chapter 88

Zhang Yue handed in the papers half an hour earlier.

"Sanlang has handed in the papers again."

"Surely this I Ching is too difficult, I am not the only one."

"Save it."

"Sanlang was the first to hand in the exam when he was in the county school entrance examination, and he passed it all."

"I see."

In the eyes of everyone, Zhang Yue was the first to submit the paper.It's not that he wants to show off, but to save time to prepare for the next test.

The invigilator of the county school took a look at Zhang Yue's paper and couldn't help but say, "Sanlang is really amazing, he has written so much. The whole paper is full."

Zhang Yue couldn't help laughing. Well, the point of this compliment is full of Qingqi, but he has written quite a lot.

"Thank you for the ministry praise."

The other party smiled and said, "Sanlang is a good student."

After leaving the food hall, he went to the kitchen stove to get the rice bowl and did not return to the fasting house. There was a weekly ceremony in the evening.The kitchen had already cooked the food in advance, and placed the food bowls in one, two and three classes under the tree outside the dining hall. Many students who were going to take the Zhou Li test had already come, and as soon as they came, they took the rice bowls, and either stood or squatted. Dine outside the restaurant.

Zhang Yue was about to stand outside the hall and have a meal with everyone when someone said, "Sanlang, someone has come from the family, waiting on the front porch!"

Zhang Yue walked to the front porch with a rice bowl, but saw that Zhang Shi was waiting there with a food basket.

"Third brother! Third brother!" After speaking, Zhang Shi turned his head to the side door and said, "Look, did I just say he is a brother? How can you believe it?"

Menzi hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, high-ranking official, it's my clumsy eyes."

Zhang Shilang said with a hearty smile: "It's okay, it's okay."

Zhang Yue walked up to his brother and said to the door, "He is my brother."

The doorman stepped back with a smile, and Zhang Yue smiled and said, "Why is my brother here?"

"Didn't I know that you had a public test today, and I rushed to bring you food? If it wasn't for the busy shop at noon, I would have brought it to you long ago. Eat it quickly, while it is still hot, I will bring it to you as soon as it is out of the pot. "

"Okay. Brother eat some too."

Zhang Shi lifted the lid on the food pan and said, "I've eaten it. Xi'er was supposed to come to see you, but he stopped me. And your sister-in-law said that the sky will change, so I'll give you a winter coat, and I'll give it to you later. You put it on. Yes, I will serve you a bowl of chicken soup first. This old hen has been stewed for an afternoon. The heat is just right. The soup surface is full of oil and water. You can taste it. You can drink this hot soup in winter. Give me a seat, I'm not happy either!"

Hearing what Zhang Shi said, Zhang Yue watched him take out a cup of chicken soup and wrapped it in cloth all around.As soon as the lid of the cup was opened, there was indeed a trace of heat.

Zhang Shi gave Zhang Yue a big bowl.Zhang Yue couldn't wait to take a bite of the chicken, it was really soft and rotten.Then Zhang Yue gulped in the chicken soup with thick oily flowers, and suddenly his whole body was warm.

Before crossing, this layer of oil flowers was often scooped up, but now it has become the most essential part of a cup of soup.

Approaching Zhang Shi, he brought out a bowl of wontons without soup and said, "Third brother, this wonton stew is dipped in chicken soup to eat."

The two brothers immediately sat on the front porch and ate the food in the pan.

In the end, even Zhang Yue, who was extremely powerful in combat, burped for a long time: "Brother, I can't eat it. You can pick it up if you save it!"

Zhang Shi smiled and said, "Alright. Tell your brother what you want to eat tomorrow, and your brother will ask someone from the shop to bring it to you."

After speaking, Zhang Shi stuffed more candied nuts and seven or eight boiled eggs for Zhang Yue.Zhang Yue was full of joy.

"Eat the eggs when you are hungry, and distribute the candied nuts to the classmates. Don't eat alone, just remember yourself, and be more harmonious with your classmates when you are outside."

Zhang Yue couldn't refuse, he nodded and said, "Brother knows, you can go back!"

"Okay! Third brother, would you like to eat wonton stew tomorrow?" Zhang Shi got the answer, and then he took the food burden and turned back three steps.

Zhang Yue distributed these candied candies to his classmates according to his brother's instructions. Everyone smiled and thanked them, while envy Zhang Yue for having such a brother.

Zhang Yue didn't rest for a moment. Most of the I Ching students have passed the exam, and the next game is about to start.As for the classmates who passed the test by copying Zhangyue papers, they thanked Zhangyue frequently as soon as they went out.

In Zhou Li, Guo Lin also had a test.

The two entered the restaurant ahead of time to find a seat and sit down.

"How about junior brother, can you still endure it?" Guo Lin asked beside him.

"It's okay, senior brother, don't worry about me."

"That's good, don't make yourself tired. If you can't hold the righteousness and don't write it, it's just ten. Even if you don't write at all, you can get through nine if you write the rest."

"Ok."

After Zhang Yue finished answering, several classmates who were sitting beside him were overjoyed when they saw him: "Sanlang, please ask for help in a while!"

"Sanlang, I'm worried that this subject is not good enough. Now that I see you, I have a bottom line."

"Suzhi Saburo is righteous, thank you in advance."

Zhang Yue smiled. At this time, someone had already taken a candle from the bookcase and walked towards the kitchen stove.

In winter, the days are short and the nights are long, and before the end of Shen, the food hall is already much darker.

Zhang Yue and Guo Lin saw this scene, and they each took candles from the test box.A few people went to the kitchen stove to light the candles first, while the others borrowed the candles and lit the candles individually.

Without a candlestick, Zhang Yue dripped the candle wax on the dining table, and then fixed the candle in the unmelted candle.

The invigilator handed out the papers one by one, and Zhang Yue took the pen and answered the questions on the test paper according to the test paper he had prepared.

After eating a meal of hot soup, Zhang Yue regained a lot of strength, but after writing like this for a day, Zhang Yue was still a little weak, and his hands and shoulders were sore.After picking up the pen and writing for a while, Zhang Yue had to put the pen down, rub his shoulders, and shake his arms.

It was a sudden cold at night and eleven exams in a row were really the biggest test of mental and physical strength.

There are several candidates who are not as good as adding clothes, and their noses are already frozen.

With the newly added winter clothes on his body, and the bowl of warm and greasy chicken soup with wonton stew, Zhang Yue added a lot of strength.

It's the last subject anyway, so don't be in a hurry, just write one by one.

Zhang Yue also wrote a lot slower this time. It took nearly two hours to finish writing the paper, and the rest of the candidates were similar.

After answering the last righteousness, Zhang Yue was finally relieved, got up and handed in the papers, turned and walked down the hall, but saw rows of candles lined up from far to near on the dining table in the dark dining hall.The candlelight flickered softly, and from time to time there was a light sound.

Under the dozens of candles, there are young faces, each candidate is concentrating on the pen, and the brush strokes are sketched on the paper, just like the spring nibbling away the sound of leaves.

And he must have been as serious as they were just now.

Pushing the door to leave, Zhang Yue looked up and saw that the first quarter moon was already hanging in the sky, and a galaxy was hanging on the ceiling.Compared with him, Xinghe is still so far away, but if he looks closely, it seems to be closer.

Suddenly, a sense of extreme exhaustion flooded his body, Zhang Yue yawned longly, and at this moment, he wished that a bed would be split open for him on the ground in front of him.Now Zhang Yue is the kind of person who can lie down immediately and fall asleep in seconds.

Three games on the first day have been completed.

Five games on the second day!
They are the Classic of Filial Piety, Book of History, Gongyang Biography, Guliang Biography, and Book of Songs.

In addition to the compulsory examination of the filial piety scriptures, there are three minor scriptures and one middle scripture.

This test is very unscientific for Zhang Yue.

Here Zhang Yue is most familiar with the Book of Filial Piety and the Book of Songs, followed by Shangshu, Gongyang and Guliang.

Zhang Yue was not very familiar with Shangshu all the time. The last county school entrance examination was a fluke, and Gongyang and Gu Liang were also new students.

Fortunately, the two classics of Zuo Zhuan and Book of Rites were on the second day.

As soon as the paper was in hand, Zhang Yue picked up the pen and started writing. The most important thing now is not whether he can write, but whether he can finish it.

For Zhang Yue, these five games were like one paper after another. All meals were eaten whole, and there was no time to rest for a while.Zhang Yue didn't even dare to drink too much water. Drinking too much would be a waste of time, so he came down with dry food for the whole process.

For him, this was the most difficult level, but Zhang Yue still persevered.And it's all written, right or wrong for the time being, at least it's finished.

When the fifth test was over, Zhang Yue could hardly walk steadily, and was almost led back to the lodging by Guo Lin.

The next day, I had to get up early in the morning for three exams.

But compared with the five heavy games on the second day, the first day and the third day were a piece of cake.

Completed eleven nine exams.

Zhang Yue unknowingly has created an unprecedented event among the students of the county school of economics, and this matter has been talked about by the county school students later.

Finished the second day.

The sky finally cleared up and a big sun came out.

The sun shines on Zhang Yue through the pine trees.

He went to the restaurant for dinner in a daze.If he hadn't been reluctant to miss that second-class meal, Zhang Yue would rather lie in bed and go to bed in the daytime until noon.

Along the way, I saw countless people talking or saying hello to me. Even the students of Jinshizhai who used to be dismissive of Jingshengzhai got to know me for the first time.

When he entered the restaurant, the noisy place suddenly became quiet, and then everyone spoke with reverence.

"Sauro!"

"Sanlang is here!"

"I've seen Saburo!"

Facing the enthusiasm of the crowd, Zhang Yue couldn't help but think with suspicion, this hasn't been released yet?How come this is so?Could it be that I'm handsome again?But even if it is true, it is not so!

But seeing a student from Jinshizhai come to him and say, "No matter what Saburo did this time, I will be convinced."

Another person said: "Sanlang, when you reported for the eleventh round, I still doubted you, and now I hope you don't take it to the bottom of your heart."

"Sanlang, I hope to know how you did in the test on the spot."

The sun shines through the window, slanting Zhang Yue's body.

Zhang Yue, who was bathed in sunshine and praise, suddenly realized that no matter how he passed the exam, he was the first person in the county school to pass the nine classics and eleven exams.

Yes, I finally did it!No matter how good the test was, he finally accomplished something that no one in the county school had ever done before.

Seeing that all the classmates are happy for themselves and not jealous, this can be said to be more touching than congratulating each other after releasing the list.

Zhang Yue said with a smile: "Everyone, I'm not trying to be talented, I just think 'Those who do their best but can't get there can have no regrets, but who can ridicule them?' Encourage each other with you, live up to your time, live up to what you have learned!"

The left and right county school students said: "So it is."

"Encourage Zhang Jun! Live up to your youth and your learning!"

A series of laughter sounded again in the dining hall.

And a few days later, the county school public test will be released!
