The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1372 An Exam
Nowadays, whether it is in Chang'an City, Longshouyuan, or Zhuangzi in Dongshan County, it is very lively. The people are busy, running around for their own livelihood, whether they are obedient to the corvee of the imperial court, come to Zhuangzi in Dongshan County It doesn't matter whether you work on the job. Although Longshou Yuanshang is a corvée who can't get money, he can save a lot of things for the family if he takes care of food and housing, and puts in some effort. As for Dongshan County, the salary is even better. Work on the Internet, the wages can be a lot.

I just heard that the academy is going to accept students this fall, and after earning money, I will see if I can send my children to the academy, maybe I can dig out a champion from my own land.

Beautiful ideals are necessary, what if they come true?If you follow your ideals, you will have the motivation to live this day.

Look at the farm households in Dongshan County now. They are the first batch to benefit from the academy in Zhuangzi. Now those whose children are in the academy are not afraid that they will have no way out in the future. Literate.

In a blink of an eye, it was the end of July, and the students of the academy that Zhuangzi attended were facing an exam that would determine their lives.

The entire academy was under martial law by the guards of the Xuan family, people inside could not get out, and people outside could not get in. Several gentlemen invited by Xiao Yu and Gao Shilian were at the entrance of the examination room, and personally inspected The students who were going to take the exam were searched and checked, and they were put into the exam room after confirming that they hadn't brought anything extra.

Mingde Academy's exam is not as strict as Chang'an City's Chunwei exam, or even stricter.

In terms of the character of the children in the academy, Xuan Shijing and the gentlemen in the academy are gratified. Maybe some books are not very good, but when facing the exam, they all choose to take the exam in a fair manner. Go play smart.

The exam questions were drawn up after discussions with several gentlemen the night before, and no one knew about them except for the few gentlemen. After drafting the questions, they were sealed with kraft paper, and when it was time for the exam, they were unsealed in the exam room.

Nowadays, there are more schools in the Academy, and more than 70 students are divided into four examination rooms. There are only a dozen people in each examination room, and the seats are all arranged by people from the Xuan family in advance. , the invigilator will continue to patrol the examination room.

The atmosphere in the entire academy was very quiet, and it even affected the parents waiting outside the academy. Today is an important day for their own children. I have never been so nervous when I sent my children to study. Maybe some children will go to Chang'an in the future to participate in the spring festival. They don't know if they would be as nervous as they are now at that time, but now, at the gate of the academy, outside the protective circle of the Xuan family's guards, the parents of these children on Zhuangzi are so nervous.

Some three or five people gathered together and rubbed their hands and sighed, some kept walking back and forth outside, and some families of three came, the father, mother, and the child's grandfather were all waiting outside.

The usually stable old man has become more talkative now. His son and daughter-in-law are constantly comforting the old man, saying that if the bastard boy fails the exam, he will break his leg when he goes home.

It is said that this exam is related to whether the children in the family will continue to study for further studies, or stop here and be assigned to other places from the academy.

In the eyes of Zhuanghu people, there is still a future in studying. Studying, participating in the Spring Festival, and obtaining an official position is the right way. After finally having such an opportunity, if you are brushed off again, you will feel very disappointed.

Xuan Shijing did not invigilate the examination in the examination room, but kept walking in the academy, and came out after walking, seeing the familiar faces on the Zhuangzi outside, the expression on his face at this time anxious.

Xuan Shijing could still guess a thing or two about what these farmers were thinking.

It's not going to work like this, I still have to do ideological work for these people, otherwise this child will definitely have a meal of fried pork with bamboo shoots when he goes home after the exam.

Xuan Shijing stood on the steps at the entrance of the academy, looking at the people outside.

The auditorium of the academy has already been completed, and it is planned to be used for enrolling students in the autumn and sending students to graduate from Mingde Academy, and there is a festival or something on weekdays, and there is also a place for these children to toss about. Unexpectedly, today From the looks of it, this auditorium was first used for the parents of these students.

"Everyone." Xuan Shijing said to them.

As soon as Xuan Shijing made a sound, the people outside looked at Xuan Shijing in unison and saluted one after another.

"The grass people have seen the father-in-law."

Xuan Shijing raised his hands and pressed down slightly: "You don't need to be polite, the exam inside has just started, and it's useless for you to be anxious at this door, but seeing you like this, I have something to say to you, and I want to say something to you. Please move to the gathering hall of the academy, please come with me."

After Xuan Shijing finished speaking, he entered the gate archway of the academy and walked inside.

The so-called gathering hall is actually the auditorium, but it cannot be called the auditorium, it can only be called such an elegant name.

What is an auditorium, homonym Li Tang, can this be done?
Xuan Shijing spoke, and the guards at the door gave way, allowing these people to enter through the door, but they still sent people to maintain the order of these people, sent these people all the way to the auditorium, and watched them enter the gathering hall .

The building of the gathering hall is very large, and there are three gates at the front, middle and back. Xuan Shijing entered through the main gate, and those who came with him came in through the middle gate accompanied by guards.

Although the gathering hall is empty, there are also a lot of desks and stools.

"Everyone try to move forward and find a place to sit down." Xuan Shijing said.

After Xuan Shijing spoke, the people who came in followed what Xuan Shijing said, and sat down in front of them. After sitting down, they kept looking around the gathering hall.

Hey, it's the first time I've seen such a big room, the emperor's palace is probably only this big.

This is about area.

It is true that the gathering hall is very large, but compared with the main hall of the Taiji Palace, there is still a gap, but it is similar. Although the Taiji Palace is majestic, the decorations inside take up too much space, so when you enter, it looks really big. where to go.

And the gathering hall of this academy has simple decoration and is clear at a glance, so it looks much larger than the main hall of Taiji Palace, but in fact, that's all it is.

"Let everyone come and sit here. I saw everyone standing outside. It's a hot day, and it's hard to be outside. The exam time is not short. Don't worry about your own children, you will suffer from heat stroke before it's too late." Xuan Shijing smiled and said: "Besides, seeing you guys outside, the anxiety in my heart is all written on my face."
