Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

Chapter 148
In fact, Qin Hao always thought that Hua Lan was the most suitable candidate for a lady, gentle and virtuous, with a dignified character, but it was a pity that the Yuan family missed it.

Minglan is pretty good, but it's hard to talk to each other. In the original drama, Gu Tingye did so many things for Minglan, but Minglan just treated him as a lord, as if she was a part-time worker and Gu Tingye was her boss.

Forget it, Mo Lan has the same personality as Lin Xiaoniang, and it's okay to be raised as a concubine, but a regular wife can't afford it.

Rulan?

"Young master, go to bed, the bed is already warm."

Just when Qin Hao was engrossed in his thoughts, Qingmei revealed a small head from under the quilt, and looked at him with winking eyes.

Qin Hao shook his head secretly, this girl Rulan is okay in other things, but she is too savage, and has too much concept of concubines, it is difficult to expect her to treat the children born in the concubine's room kindly in the future, as far as Qin Hao is concerned, as long as they are his Children, the basic treatment should be the same.

"Sir?"

Under Qingmei's puzzled gaze, Qin Hao took off his coat and got into bed, and Qingmei immediately covered his cold feet on his belly.

In the darkness, Qin Hao's hand had already climbed up the trembling mountain.

Speechless all night.
The few days of Chinese New Year holidays are fleeting, and Qin Hao, Qi Heng, and Gu Tingye returned to Sheng Mansion to attend classes again on the sixth day of the lunar new year.

It's just that when I arrived at the school, I found that none of the three girls from the Sheng family had disappeared, and even the seats had been removed.

It was only after class at noon that I learned from Sheng Changbai that it was Madam Sheng who had invited a lady Kong from the palace to teach them how to behave.

"Besides, what we're taking now is policy theory, and they don't understand it, so there's no need to waste time here." Sheng Changbai explained.

Qin Hao and Gu Tingye didn't take it seriously, but Qi Heng was full of disappointment.

"Don't forget, the most important thing is the scientific examination. If you don't pass the examination, you should give up your mind completely, so as not to disturb Ming Lan's mind." Qin Hao secretly reminded.

There was a flash of determination in Qi Heng's eyes, and he nodded solemnly.

After the beginning of spring, students from all over the world came to Bianjing to take the exam one after another, and the prices of inns and restaurants in Bianjing city also began to increase. Students who had not reserved a room before had to stay in the private sector, and many people rented out their houses to generate income.

The number of students also caused a lot of troubles. Bianjing city is full of good and bad people, and many gangsters also targeted some powerless students from other places. Theft and robbery happened from time to time. Kaifeng Mansion and the Imperial Army sent more Manned patrols, but cases still occur from time to time.

In a blink of an eye, it was the eighth day of the second lunar month, and the examination was due one day later. The Tianzhuang pedant didn't attend class, but told them some skills in the examination, which was regarded as special training.

There are a total of three examinations. The imperial examination system in the Song Dynasty has been perfected. Not only is there a strict confidentiality system, the examiner and anyone who has access to the test questions will be separated two months in advance, and the test papers will also be anonymous. The means of transcribing prevents cheating.

Through these two methods, the examiner has no way to identify the identity of the candidate through the name and handwriting, which largely eliminates the possibility of cheating.

After listening to Xuexue Zhuang, Qin Hao also felt that he had benefited a lot. In the past, he only learned about the situation of the imperial examination from some materials, so it was naturally not as profound as the narration of those who actually experienced it.

In the afternoon, Xiaotao, the maid beside Minglan, ran over and brought knee pads to everyone.

Qin Hao was amused when he saw it. Sheng Changbai's kneepad had a vigorous pine cypress embroidered on it, Qi Heng's kneepad had a big ingot embroidered on it, and his kneepad had three waves embroidered on it.

"Wait for me to thank Miss Ming of your family, just say, I like it very much." Qi Heng couldn't put it down, and incidentally told Xiao Tao to bring back his heart.

Xiaotao nodded blankly, as if she didn't understand the meaning of Dao Qiheng's words.

Qin Hao put the knee pads on his knees, not to mention they are quite soft, such a pair of knee pads is time-consuming and laborious to make. Ming Lan has to go to class during the day, and often has to complete the "homework" given by Ru Lan, showing off a handkerchief from time to time. Yes, I'm afraid I have to start embroidery from last year before I can finish it.

Look at Ru Lan and Mo Lan again, there is no harm without comparison.

"Xiao Tao, tell your lady, for the sake of this knee pad, if Miss Yi has any difficulties in the future, you can come to me for help."

Xiaotao blinked, wrote it down, and then ran away quickly.

Zhuang Xuexue glanced at the sky: "Okay, let's go here today, tomorrow will be a test, and the dragon gate is waiting for you to jump there, go, go."

"I will live up to my teacher's instruction." Qin Hao and others saluted in unison.

Back in Dongchanghou Mansion, outside Qin Hao's small courtyard, it was so quiet that you could listen carefully to the drop of a needle. This was also Qin Liu's order. In order not to disturb Qin Hao's participation in the test tomorrow, no one is allowed to disturb him.

Even Qingmei was called away by Qin Liushi. According to her thinking, she would try to conserve her energy and it would be better not to have sex.

This night, Qin Hao had a rare insomnia, just like Zhuang Xuejiao said that the examination is a dragon gate, and if you jump over it, you will be a million miles away. A heavyweight.

You need to be famous as early as possible, Qin Hao doesn't want to waste another three years, not to mention that the Yan Wang Rebellion is about to take place, and the Dongchang Marquis Mansion may not be spared, so you have to make preparations early. If you don't have the status of Jinshi, your father Qin Junye may not Dare to hand over the lives of hundreds of people in the Dongchang Hou Mansion to Qin Hao.

Amidst the turmoil of his thoughts, Qin Hao gradually fell asleep.

Opening his eyes again, it was already broad daylight, and Qingmei was already standing pretty by the bed, waiting for him to change clothes.

"I wish you the title of the gold list and the success of the Toad Palace."

The moment Qin Hao walked out of the room, all the servants serving in the small courtyard, including Qing Mei, saluted and sang congratulations.

Sit in the carriage of Dongchang Hou Mansion and go all the way to the Gongyuan. The streets are very lively. In addition to the students who go to the Gongyuan to rush for the exam, there are also many people who come to see the excitement. For a feudal society with an illiteracy rate of 80% like the Song Dynasty, the scholars themselves mean He is superior to others, not to mention that those who come to participate in the examination are all candidates from all over the world, and those who are placed in remote places are already great scholars.

There are also parents who walk back and forth on the streets leading to the Gongyuan with their children, implying that they are contaminated with culture, as if this will allow their children to be named on the gold list.

The examination is an important day for selecting materials for the country. In order to avoid traffic jams, Kaifeng Prefecture and the Forbidden Army will send people to patrol back and forth. Small stalls that exceed the scope of shops are also not allowed to be set up on the street. It seems that the city management came later.

Qin Hao's chariots and horses walked very slowly, mainly because there were too many cars on the road. Fortunately, it was not far from the Gongyuan, and it took about half an hour to arrive.

When he came to the gate of the Gongyuan, Qin Hao rushed to Qin Junye and Qin Liushi and bowed slightly: "Father, mother, the child has gone."

"Go, go, today is the time for you to jump into the dragon's gate." Qin Junye said pretending to be calm, but in fact he was very nervous, and he rarely went to the concubine's room to spend the night last night.

Qin Liu's tears were about to come down, but she could only hold back, because she was afraid that it would be unlucky and would have a bad influence on her son.

There are soldiers at the gate of the Gongyuan, who have to verify their integrity and search to ensure that they are not entrained before they can enter. Therefore, the saying that a man disguised as a woman can only appear in the drama, and the body search alone cannot pass.

"Young Lord offended, please." The old official in charge of inspection saluted respectfully.

Qin Hao packed his things and walked into the tribute courtyard, and came to the examination room with the number hanging on it. He said it was an examination room, but it was actually a small cubicle with three walls made of bricks. After entering, candidates could not come out except to go to the toilet. , eating and drinking are all inside.

Qin Hao's luck is not bad, he was not assigned to the toilet, and he couldn't help but mourn in silence for the students who were assigned to the "stinky number". Being stunned is already a strong will.

The first exam was about the scriptures.

That is to intercept a passage from the Four Books and Five Classics, and then use this passage to write an article on reading comprehension. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, stereotyped essays gradually formed, and only the thoughts of sages could be used to answer, but there were no strict regulations in the Song Dynasty. Candidates can use his questions to explain their own reasons, and there are even some who completely disregard the Four Books and Five Classics, the words of the sages, and stand up for themselves. As long as what you say makes sense, you can also have a chance to pass the exam, as long as the examiner is bold enough.

Of course, Qin Hao didn’t have the idea of ​​being unconventional. He followed the test questions to do reading comprehension, and at the same time added some of his own ideas. The imperial examinations in the Song Dynasty were relatively open. Otherwise, it is very difficult to get good grades.

After the classics and meanings, there are poems and fus, the title is: Plum Blossoms.

Qin Hao thought for a while, and could only say in his heart: "I'm sorry, Mr. Gao Qi."

Then write it down on the paper.

"Qiongzi only stays in Yaotai, who will plant everywhere in the south of the Yangtze River?

In the snow-covered mountains, the gentleman is lying, and the beauty is coming under the moonlight forest.

Han Yi Shu Ying Xiao Xiao Zhu, spring covers the remnant fragrance and desert moss.

He Lang has no good chants since I went, and the east wind is sad and silent several times. "

After that, there are the most important subjects in the imperial examination: strategy and theory. These two subjects are actually separate. The theory is mainly about comments and debates, while the requirements for strategy are relatively high. Strategic advice, the main thing in the palace exam after that is strategy.

The topic of the discussion was okay, it was considered a relatively routine topic, Qin Hao typed up the manuscript, and then began to write quickly.

But when it came to Ce, even Qin Hao frowned a little, this question was too biased.

"The field of the emperor of Zhou is thousands of miles away, and it is called ten thousand rides. All the ten thousand rides have horses, and there are twelve idle horses. And the 360 ​​officials of the six officials must all have their own chariots and horses. Aren't there too many chariots and horses? A land of thousands of miles How much is the field, how much is the land for herding, and how many horses can be accommodated? How much is the field for a thousand miles? Is it not good to be good at raising horses now? There should be something to say."

The lack of horses in the Song Dynasty has always been a long-standing problem. To answer this question, one must first have an understanding of the current horse administration in the Song Dynasty, and at the same time have a certain knowledge of animal husbandry and mathematics.

Fortunately, the Marquis of Dongchang, as a noble general, has its own ranch. When Qin Hao was learning riding, he also stayed at the ranch for a while.

However, facing this question, Qin Hao did not dare to say how well he could answer it. After all, it is not an in-depth understanding, and he can only use some knowledge about animal husbandry from later generations to mix it into the article, hoping to arouse the examiner's attention. Take it seriously.

Three days later, the street at the gate of the Gongyuan was noisy and full of people. Some of them came to pick up the candidates and many of them came to watch the excitement. The annual grand event naturally attracts crowds of people.

Perhaps the gene of Chinese people who love to watch liveliness is inherited from this ancient man.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted: "The gate of the Gongyuan is open!"

People looked, and sure enough, the door of the tribute courtyard was slowly opened, and a group of candidates came out with pale faces.

In order to prevent people from cheating, everyone ate and drank in the Gongyuan during these three days. After three days of hard work, it was a huge test of energy and physical strength.

Some people died when they left the gate of the tribute courtyard, and fell to the ground and passed out. When the family saw it, they hurriedly stepped forward to lift the person up and go home to recuperate.

In the carriage of the Duke of Qi's mansion, Princess Pingning raised a corner of the curtain and looked out. She would definitely not do this in normal times, but she couldn't hold her breath today.

Duke Qi directly said to the servant: "Look for it quickly, did you come out!"

Because there were too many people, Qi Guogong couldn't find Qi Heng in the crowd for a while.

On the other side, the same is true in the carriage of the Dongchanghou Mansion. Qin Liushi directly stood on the carriage, looking for Qin Hao.

Finally, among the crowd of candidates, Qin Hao and Qi Heng walked out together. They were not assigned to the same examination room, but met outside. Gu Tingye and Sheng Changbai were nowhere to be seen. It didn't come out.

Qi Heng's footsteps were flimsy, and Qin Hao kept supporting him. Seeing this, Qi Guogong hurriedly led his servants to fight a bloody path in the crowd to catch the two of them.

At this time, Qin Junye also brought his servants to meet him, and Qi Guogong cupped his hands at Qin Hao: "My nephew is here."

Qin Hao's face was also a bit unsightly, and he waved his hands: "This place is too messy, it's not a place to talk, the Duke should take Yuan Ruo home to recuperate, and we can get together later."

Duke Qi nodded: "Zihan is still thoughtful, so let's go back first."

Qi Heng also bowed his hands to Qin Hao and Qin Junye with great effort, and was helped into the carriage by Princess Pingning. With the servants of Duke Qi's mansion opening the way ahead, the carriage squeezed out a passage among the crowd and left slowly.

Qin Junye also helped Qin Hao into the carriage and followed behind.

Back home, Qin Liushi quickly asked someone to prepare hot water without saying a word.

Qingmei waited on Qin Hao to take off his clothes and fell asleep not long after entering the barrel.

In the end, it was Qingmei who woke him up when she saw that the water was getting cold.

After Qingmei dried him off and changed him into pajamas, Qin Hao directly dragged Qingmei onto the bed, hugged him tightly, and fell asleep like that.

This sleep was very dark, and it was already the next morning when Qin Hao woke up again.

"My lord, let me help you get up. You haven't eaten for ten hours. If you're starving, you won't be well."

Qingmei said that she was about to get out of Qin Hao's arms.

Qin Hao grabbed her slender waist, and said lazily in her ear.

"There's no morning exercise today."

Qingmei's face turned red all of a sudden, and some unsuitable images kept appearing in her mind, and the front of her chest had been lifted.

"My lord, don't, just now the eldest lady sent someone to ask, and the eldest lady is waiting for the son to eat in the front hall."

Qin Hao didn't force himself anymore when he heard the words, and pulled his hand back: "Okay, I'll forgive you today, and we'll fight another [-] rounds when we come back in the evening."

Listening to Qin Hao's playful tone, Qingmei buried her face in the quilt, and for some reason, she seemed to be getting stronger and stronger for such things.

After washing up, Qin Hao came to the front hall, and Qin Liushi hurriedly said to the servants: "They are all dead, why don't you hurry up and serve all the food."

Soon the sumptuous meal was placed in front of him, and Qin Hao also twitched his index finger.

Finally, when Qin Hao had eaten enough and put down his chopsticks, Qin Junye cleared his throat and asked.

"Brother Hao will try this time, how do you feel?"

Qin Hao sighed: "The test questions this time are a bit biased. To be honest, I'm not sure."

A look of disappointment could not help appearing on Qin Junye's face, Qin Liushi quickly poked him with his finger secretly, and then comforted him.

"Brother Hao, don't be in a hurry. You are still young anyway. If you really can't do it, just take the exam in three years. It doesn't matter."

Qin Junye also reacted: "Yes, there are very few 15 years old who can be admitted to Jinshi, so don't worry about it."

Qin Hao smiled and did not explain again.

Little did they know that the outside world had already turned the world upside down. In the end, the topic of this policy was too biased, which stumped countless students. There was already a commotion at the Imperial College, and someone even wrote a letter to the current official, asking for a re-examination.

There are also many students who criticize the person who created the question, thinking that such a question has exceeded the normal range, and even if they don't retake the exam, they should reduce the proportion in the exam score.

All of a sudden, the city was full of disturbances, and Kong Fang, the chief examiner of the Ministry of Rites, was also under great pressure. There were many scolding him outside, and some people in the court wrote memorials demanding that he be punished.

But in fact, he was just taking the blame for others, but he couldn't justify himself, because it was the current officials who asked this question.

The point is, taking such a big risk, I didn't see any good articles in this exam paper, so how could this have anything to do with the emperor?
"How about it, do you have any good policy theory?" Kong Fang asked.

The rest of the examiners shook their heads.

Only one young examiner kept holding a paper, turning a blind eye to Kong Fang's question.

Kong Fang looked behind him curiously, and was immediately attracted by the content of the article.

"Wonderful, if this method is really effective, the Song army may be able to relieve the temporary worries."

The young examiner was startled, the paper in his hand had been taken away by Kong Fang.

Kong Fang passed this paper to other examiners for circulation, and they all received unanimous praise.

"If there is no more amazing test paper in the future, is this worth it?" Kong Fang asked with a smile, and finally heaved a sigh of relief. With this test paper, he finally had an explanation to the official family.

"Well, this son's poems and scriptures are also the best choice, and he can be the Huiyuan!"

The examiners agreed unanimously.
