The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

As the spring of the seventh year of Jinghe approached, Kyoto suddenly became lively.

Looking from a distance, one can't help sighing: This is indeed the capital of the Great Chu, at the foot of the emperor, and a place where talents from all over the world gather!

In fact, most of these students who came to Beijing to catch the exam arrived in Kyoto before the winter of last year. They either rented yards to prepare for the exam, or went to government schools for boarding, or went to relatives and friends, or lived in their own properties, or stayed in temples and Taoist temples.

I came here in a hurry this spring, either because I was delayed by fate on the way, or because I was so close to Kyoto that I was not in a hurry to leave.

Students from all over the world came to Beijing to take the exam, which invisibly also boosted the economy of the cultural industry. For example, the profits of the three bookstores in Shengyuan and the stationery shops have doubled.

"I asked the shopkeeper to prepare a test basket, which covers all the materials needed for the test. It can be said that with our test basket in hand, students will have no worries about the exam! Is this the foolish service you mentioned before?" An Yuxian I can't help it, I'm tired of reading the textbooks, so I turn my brains to the exam candidates.

Unlike Sheng Yuan, he didn't have too much pursuit of the examination results, as long as he could enter the palace examination, even if he was a fellow Jinshi, he would not be ashamed.

Sheng Yuan knew his ambition, so she let him go, as long as she was not too lazy, she didn't bother to urge her.

Her attention is now entirely on her studies.

Although she is not overly strong, but seeing that she has passed the exam step by step, she is only one yuan away from being famous in history, and it is impossible to say that she does not miss it.

Of course, she wouldn't let this expectation weigh her down.

Hey, who told her to bring her own decompression program.

Whenever the tension is approaching the critical value, she can automatically think about it: "No way! No way! All roads lead to Shoufu!
Isn't it six yuan and the first!It just sounds good!If you really want to pass the exam, it will attract a lot of attention!Don't you know that the early citrons rot first!
Do you still worry about not being able to leave your name in history when you become the chief assistant?A good-sounding ranking is like floating clouds, how can there be any real benefits in hand? ! "

look!As long as these three paragraphs are spoken, Sheng Yuan's heart will be at peace.

Of course, it doesn't matter even if the effects of these three confessions fluctuate.

All it takes is a gourmet meal to stabilize the situation immediately.

This child Sheng Yuan is so easy to satisfy.

For this, even her system is very convinced.

……

The review time is always fluctuating between "blink of an eye" and "slow life", but no matter how the students prove the theory of relativity in their torment, the time for the start of the exam will still come amidst everyone's expectations and anxiety.

The ninth day of March is the time for the first exam.

Of course, there will be three exams, each of which will be entered on the previous day, which means that candidates will enter the exam on the eighth day of March.

Before entering the venue, inspections are still essential.

[This person who has come with the singing of the deer, how can he be treated as a thief! 】

Sheng Yuan waited in line for the search, when he heard his own system shake his head and let out a sigh.

"???" She didn't know when her own system became polite? !

【What are you looking at? !This is not what I said, it was said by Ming Tai Zu of the Ming Dynasty in your original time and space! 】The system pushed the mirror frame on the bridge of the nose, and raised its head arrogantly.

Sheng Yuan: "..."

It wasn't what it said, so why is it arrogant? !

"It's not so much treating them as thieves, it's more like clearing mines in advance; I don't intend to be thieves, and this is helping rather than treating me poorly."

As far as Sheng Yuan was concerned, as long as she didn't delay her exam, she didn't have any objections to a hair-by-hair inspection.

For students who take the exam based on their strength, all those who cheat are their enemies!

Of course, if you think about it this way, since all the scholars who will be referred to in the examination will have a good reputation, the examination will still take care of the examinee's face. This time, there is no need to take off your clothes and expose your skin, just confirm that there are no coats, test baskets, etc. Just carry it.

The entrance inspection for the general examination started at Choushi, but when Shengyuan passed the inspection and went to find the hall with the examination number as usual, it was almost Yinshi.

Fortunately, the examination requires entering the arena one day in advance, so even though the search time is longer, the students still have sufficient preparation time after entering the arena. This is very friendly to picky candidates like Sheng Yuan.

The exam hall is busy and bustling, but the examiners are a little leisurely.Gein examiners need to enter the venue three days in advance, even though they need to prepare a lot, most of them have been straightened out since entering the venue.

Speaking of which, there are three examiners in Chunwei this time, namely the president Gu Yuncheng, and the vice presidents An Suiyun and He Benchu.

Different from the selection of the chief examiner of the township examination, the chief examiner of the general examination directly appointed the cabinet minister and the two ministers of the Ministry of household affairs and the Ministry of rites, which shows that the imperial court attached great importance to the general examination.

"There are still 37 questions in this examination, 23 questions in the first round, three questions in the Four Books, four questions in each of the Five Classics; nine questions in the second exam, one topic, five verdicts, and one edict, edict, table; the third and last round, only five strategies are tested."

Towards evening, the exam hall quieted down, and the patrol officer led the team to patrol while loudly telling the examiners the exam questions.

Sheng Yuan sat in the exam dormitory, instead of reciting the classics softly with her eyes closed like most candidates, she was now thinking about how to better arrange the exam time.

After all, the general examination is more accustomed to looking at the candidates' three results in a comprehensive way, which is commonly known as "equal attention to the three tests".

Because the examiners will weigh the quality of the results of three games when admitting and ranking, so if she wants to win the championship, she cannot give up a question.

This requires the completion of all the questions with both quality and quantity, and the difficulty is so high that even Shengyuan must treat it with caution.

……

It was the first time for Sheng Yuan to participate in the general examination, and she had the attitude that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, but after each test, she suddenly discovered that the intensity of the test and the psychological and physical tests of the candidates were far beyond the capabilities of the rural test.

After three exams, she saw the young scholar suddenly faint, and the white-haired old man suddenly go berserk.

In the exam hall near her alone, more than ten people were sent away in three exams.

It wasn't until the last exam was handed in that Sheng Yuan suddenly felt that this kind of exam was actually an experience for the candidates, a test to change the psychological quality of the candidates.

Don't talk about others, let's talk about her. At the beginning, she would shake her hands when she heard the sound of shock. After the third scene, she could proudly pat her chest and say that she could make Mount Tai collapse in front of her. No color change.

Of course, Shengyuan Shengjuren, who was in a good mood, went home and fell asleep like the rural exam after the third exam.

When he woke up in the morning of the third day, Sheng Yuan, who had slept for a day and two nights, was alive and kicking again.

After the exam, Sheng Yuan and her classmates began to wait for more than half a month.
