Rebirth of Journey to the West: My Father's Yellow Robe Monster

Chapter 80 The Essays Enter the Dao, Shocking the Examination Room (Subscription Required)

It was dawn.

Scholars and scholars, rubbing shoulders, riding in a carriage, sitting in a sedan chair, or simply walking, came and went, but they were all taciturn.

For scholars, the Chunwei Pass is a veritable carp jumping over the Dragon Gate.

Especially for poor scholars, it is difficult to get ahead after failing the rankings, and only in high school can they hope to step into the officialdom. Even if they are officials, it is definitely not something ordinary people can take on.

At this time, the invisible golden light on the sky is intertwined, as dense as a network, and the phantom of the gods can be vaguely seen, and there is even a long river of literary energy condensed.

In addition, the imperial court's troops had already stationed in the Gongyuan City, and their killing intent was almost solidified. Once the order was received, it would definitely be a thunderous blow.

The gods in the sky and the imperial court are paying attention to ensure that there will be no mistakes this time.

At the gate of the Gongyuan, Li Tianquan went through the certificate carefully checked by the soldiers, and after checking it was correct, he went in, and found his own number house according to the number he got.

The house is not big.

The tables and chairs are complete and spotless, and there are pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the stone case.

After checking, Li Tianquan confirmed that there was no problem, so he sat on the stone bench, closed his eyes and rested his mind.

Dangdang!
At this time, the crisp bell sounded from afar, and the spring began.

The examinations of the Mingjing Department are mainly Moyi, Tiejing and Celun. Compared with Qiuwei, there is not much difference, but the questions are more difficult.

Li Tianquan's nine-volume classics are clear in his chest. Although many things have happened during this period of time, the review has never stopped. Compared with before, it has greatly improved.

With his attainments at this time, it is completely enough to take the Jinshi examination. This is because the imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty were not obscure, and they were controlled by aristocratic families.

If you want to be a Jinshi in high school, you just need to have enough literary talents. Behind this involves the game between the aristocratic family and the collision with the imperial power.

Even though Li Tianquan had made a lot of preparations before, not only making great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, but also spreading his literary fame, the chance of being a Jinshi is still very small.

On the contrary, it is Ming Jing. With his reputation and foundation at this time, the examiner will definitely think about it, even if he is a humble scholar, he will not be demoted at will.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and he quickly settled down, no longer thinking about it, and carefully checked the test paper to make sure there were no ambiguities or mistakes, and he was ready to start answering the questions.

Mo Yi and Tie Jing are the easiest for him, he just glances at them, without thinking at all, if he writes with spirit, he can finish writing one page after another, and it will be completed in less than an hour.

"Policy theory."

Li Tianquan first took the policy theory examination paper, opened it and saw that there were three propositions, which were very loose. He nodded and said, "Just do this."

Mingyuan Building is where the examiners are located. The four corners are turned upwards, and you can watch the entire Gongyuan from a condescending height.

This time the chief examiner was Li Baiyao, the servant of the Ministry of Rites. He asked people to open the small window, and looked from top to bottom. The rooms were like a chess game, dyed in black and white, neat and orderly. Solemn.

Li Baiyao was born in a rich family. He was proficient in rites, music and laws. He was highly trusted by Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty.

At this moment, he took a sip of his tea and said with a smile, "It is said that during the time of the spring court, the gods were watching. If you can observe the qi, you can see the manifestation of everyone's cultural qi."

"Small as a candlelight, as big as a bright moon, and some even evolved visions such as splendid articles, golden horses and iron horses, and rivers and mountains on the houses. Unfortunately, they can't be seen now."

"yes,"

Xueshi Wu on the side nodded and said, "Speaking of which, the prosperity of our Tang Dynasty's literary spirit surpassed that of the previous dynasty. It's just that my Tang Dynasty's dragon energy suppressed all laws, and the power of laws condensed into a net to suppress the vision. Can't see it at all."

"However, this is also good, so as not to make too much noise and affect other candidates."

"That's the truth."

Li Baiyao came to the window with his hands behind his back, and said, "Although the literary spirit of a single scholar is not obvious, the entire Tribute Court has a mighty upright spirit rising, condensing into a vast Milky Way, which can be seen by those with great powers."

"One imperial examination can be said to baptize the entire city of Chang'an once, so that the Tang Dynasty will prosper, avoid all evils, and maintain long-term peace and stability."

Several examiners chatted, but never mentioned the literary talents, knowledge and rankings of these candidates.

The result of the exam was actually doomed from the very beginning, and there would be some minor adjustments, such as changes in rankings, but the high school list had already been decided.

There will be such a result, but it is the common will of the nobles, aristocratic families, and courtiers of the Tang Dynasty. Even a hero like Li Shimin, the emperor of the dynasty, has to compromise.

At this time, Li Tianquan let out a foul breath, took the inkstone on the table, poured ink sticks on it, sat up straight, and began to grind.

After a while, the ink block melted. He sniffed the fragrance of the ink, pondered his thoughts, took the pen from the pen stand, rolled out the roll of paper, and began to write the policy.

rustling,
When the tip of the pen touches the fine paper, there is a rustling sound, just like night rain beating a pipa, very rhythmic and very pleasant to hear.

clap la la,
It didn't take long at all, he wrote the last word in one go, threw a pen on the desk, checked it carefully, and copied it on the test paper again.

Then he got up and called the soldiers in front of the door.

"what's up?"

The soldier asked blankly, expressionlessly.

"I want to hand in the paper,"

Li Tianquan pointed to the roll paper on the case, repeated it again, and said, "I want to hand in the roll paper."

"Hold on,"

The soldier took a look at Li Tianquan and went out to deliver a message.

Not much time, a civil official hurried over, frowned and asked, "But you want to hand in the paper?"

At this time, it was less than two hours before the start of the exam. Those who handed in the papers at this time were almost equivalent to giving up the exam. Naturally, they would not have a good face towards such a person.

"Yes."

Li Tianquan didn't care, and said calmly, "I've finished answering the paper and I have to hand it in."

"Ok?"

The clerk turned his eyes and saw that the words on the scroll were full of words, and the calligraphy was pleasing to the eye, and his expression softened.

He picked up the roll of paper, flipped through it briefly, then put it down, and when he looked at Li Tianquan again, his gaze became strange, with surprise mixed with admiration, and a kind of disbelief.

"So you are Li Tianquan,"

The clerk paused, and then said, "I have also heard the poems you wrote, and you are indeed quick-witted and well-deserved."

"I'll ask again, can you hand in the paper?"

"Hand in the paper."

Li Tianquan had planned for a long time. Originally, he was very sure of Mingjing High School this time, but something happened suddenly to Wang Yu, and there were variables in it.

In order to be able to go through high school smoothly, he plans to make a big noise in this township examination, and he must hand in the papers as soon as possible to form public opinion and increase opportunities.

"Okay, wait a moment."

Seeing this, the civil servants stopped talking.

"Students go to the back and wait first."

Li Tianquan had the experience of handing in the examination papers early in the last county examination. Seeing that the examination papers had been sealed, he saluted the official and followed the soldiers in front of the gate to rest behind.

"Someone handed in the paper so early?"

"It seems to be Li Tianquan."

"Did he give up?"

"Could it be that this guy can't continue writing, so he simply smashed the jar and handed in the paper directly?"

"I just said that he is a fame-seeking person who just spends money to buy fame."

Li Tianquan, with his sleeves fluttering, walked all the way, and happened to be seen by many candidates in the dormitory. They were either surprised, ridiculed, or ignored.

There are thousands of people with various attitudes, and their hearts are complicated.

Li Tianquan didn't bother to pay attention, and kept walking.

"As long as I can go to high school this time, I can complete the task and go to apprentice."

"At that time, the great roc will spread its wings, and the sky will let the birds fly. Whether it is success or failure, this is the one action!"

This kind of movement naturally alarmed Li upstairs in Mingyuan. He fixed his eyes, looked down, and said, "Is there any candidate who handed in the paper so early?"

"It is too early?"

Several other deputy examiners stood up. They looked at the sky and were a little stunned. How long has it been?

"this,"

Li Baiyao looked at his back as he turned the corner, took the answer sheet handed over by the official on duty, and asked, "But hand in the sheet normally?"

"normal,"

The clerk naturally knew the meaning of these two words, and said, "Master the examiner, the examinee should hand in the paper normally."

"Oh,"

Li Baiyao raised his eyebrows, showing a trace of surprise, and then said to the deputy examiners beside him, "This is the first time I have seen such a quick-thinking examinee, please bring his examination paper."

"My lord, please." Soon someone delivered the examination paper.

"Um,"

Li Baiyao opened the examination paper, and upon seeing it, there was a little surprise on his face,

The smile on his face disappeared, replaced by surprise and shock.

Calligraphy is the appearance of a scholar, and it is also the examiner's first impression of the examinee. The font on the examination paper now looks like a master of swordsmanship. Everything can be changed at will, the spirituality is self-contained, and the style is outstanding.

"good word,"

He stared at the vivid words on the answer sheet, and felt a kind of indescribable awe-inspiring meaning straight into his brows.

Seeing Li Baiyao's expression, several other deputy examiners also surrounded him.

You must know that Li Baiyao became famous at a young age, and he already held a high position in the former Sui Dynasty. He has made achievements in etiquette and law, and calligraphy is even more famous.

Such a character, with poems and books in his chest, sharp eyes, and the papers of ordinary scholars, it is impossible for him to be so moved.

Li Baiyao collected himself and went to read the papers. Mo Yi and Tie Jing flowed smoothly, without any mistakes or omissions at all.
"good article,"

Li Baiyao was amazed again. The whole article was refined in terms of literature and science, well-used words, easy to explain, and penetrating. Such an article can stand out even if it is a Jinshi examination.

"Several, take a look."

Li Baiyao raised his head, saw the crowd gathered around, smiled, and handed over the test paper.

"Good word."

After seeing it, the deputy chief officers immediately praised it repeatedly. Such words have integrated their own energy and will, and they already have a bit of the charm of using words to enter Taoism.

After reading the exam paper, I was even more amazed.

"This is Li Tianquan, the recent Shuangjue son? He is really talented, no wonder he was able to write such a masterpiece as "Jiangjinjiu"."

"This person has recently been in Chang'an, and some people have called him a poet, and he is in full swing."

"This time is the first time to hand in the test paper again. She is indeed young and vigorous, and the young man is a proud young man."

Seeing everyone talking one after another, someone suddenly said in the corner: "It is said that this son has a close relationship with Wang Yu's daughter. A while ago, Wang Yu was suddenly brought into the palace..."

The lively discussions just now stopped abruptly, and there was a moment of dead silence in the field.
