Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 318
Du Jinning is a person with extremely careful thinking, otherwise she would not have been so meticulous during the county examination and would not have made any mistakes.In just over half an hour, she already felt Zhou Dongping's deep hostility towards her.Of course she would not let Zhou Dongping catch her in order to kill time.

So even though staying in this examination number is more comfortable, she didn't plan to stay here any longer.She polished the ink again, and when it was fine and thick, she carefully copied the two poems and arithmetic questions, together with the questions, on the test paper.

After copying these, she sat down and recited the books she had read recently in her heart; after reciting the books, she recited the content of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" that she was about to write in her heart.Yes, the way she came up with to pass the time was to hand in the exam after lunch and go outside to write a storybook.

In order to meet the progress of storytellers, she takes a little time every day to write story books.During this period of time, because of the government examination, the activity of writing the script has stopped.She originally planned to finish the government examination and then hurry up to make up for the missing parts, otherwise the storytellers would have to waste their time, so now she simply uses this time to write the storybook.

With a calm mind, the time passed not too slowly, and before I knew it, I heard the sound of the cloud board outside.

Du Jinning rang the bell immediately, the movement was so fast that the corners of Zhou Dongping and Li Tong's mouths twitched.

Meals for 7000 examinees are much easier than [-] people.Not long after Du Jinning rang the bell, the food was delivered, and the food was still the same as yesterday.

Du Jinning chewed and ate his meal slowly, and rang the bell to ask the guards to take away the bowls and chopsticks. Seeing that Zhou Dongping and Li Tong had also returned from lunch, she picked up the things she had packed up and pulled Ling reported to the guard: "Hand in the paper."

There was a sudden commotion in the examination room.

Because the topic is difficult, many people try to write stereotyped poems but fail to switch to other types, so many people have only finished two poems now.Those who gave up stereotyped poems at the beginning and wrote poems at a relatively fast speed are now stuck on math problems.

At this time, when they heard that someone handed in the test paper, everyone panicked. They wanted to know who handed in the test paper so early, whether this person finished the test paper or what happened.

The guard opened the horizontal board and let Du Jinning out, and seeing her holding the test paper in one hand and the Four Treasures of the Study in the other, he couldn't help but look at her in surprise.

Du Jinning quickly raised the things in his hand and asked, "Can these be taken out?"

The guard nodded.

These four treasures of the study were bought by candidates with money.Those from poor families or who are very frugal will be taken out after the test; and the candidates who are in better condition will be discarded directly in the test number. They have all been used, and they are of no use value.There are only inkstones and pens, which can be reused, but the quality of these things is so poor that people who are not so difficult usually don't use them, so everyone doesn't bother to take them out.

Because Du Jinning is the chief case, No.1 in the first case, and the top paper, the guards have a deep impression on her, knowing that she has ordered good meals for the past two days; and she is not from a poor family in terms of clothes. of.So it was a surprise to see Du Jinning holding these cheap things like treasures in his hands.

Du Jinning and the guard walked up to Zhou Dongping and handed in the test paper.

Zhou Dongping took a look at the test paper and saw that there was nothing dirty on it, and it was all written by Du Jinning in front of him. He raised his head, took a deep look at Du Jinning, and said, "I have a question, can you Can you make an eight-legged poem on the spot?"

Du Jinning and Li were stunned together.

Three or four candidates, Zhou Zhi and Liang Xiankuan, who were relatively close to them and could hear their conversation, were stunned.

Do...do you want to go too far?

Generally, the chief examiner will ask the candidates at most some knowledge-related things, or match the dots. No one asks the candidates to write poems.You must know that the test post poem book is the content of the exam, and you have another question for candidates to write, and you also ask to write stereotyped poems. Isn't this request too much?
They have all their hair pulled out, and it took half a day to moan and whine and squeeze out two poems. You ask them to write poems immediately?Isn't this embarrassing?
Li Tong also felt that Zhou Dongping had done too much, so he hurriedly said: "The main reason is that Mr. Zhou saw that the poem you wrote is so good, and he has a heart for talent, so I want you to write another one. If you do It doesn't matter if you don't come out, this is not the content of the exam."

He said this with a good heart.He knew that Zhou Dongping had become suspicious of Du Jinning, and he might have suspected that his master had leaked the question to Du Jinning.If Du Jinning could compose a stereotyped poem comparable to "Yin Yin Xia Mu's Oriole" in public, it would not only prove his innocence, but also force Zhou Dongping not to take him as the number one.

This was probably the decision Zhou Dongping made after looking around the situation just now.Don't say that the poems written by these candidates in the examination room are not better than Du Jinning's, even if they are even a little bit different from hers.Zhou Dongping himself was also cautious, and he would never take the risk of being impeached just to deal with Du Jinning and take a student who was too far behind Du Jinning as the number one.Not even Liang Xiankuan.If the difference is too far, it is easy to leave a story.

That's why he asked Du Jinning to compose poems in public.

If he can't do it, then he has an argument, saying that he suspects that Du Jinning's poem was not written by himself, so he is not taken as the first.He wanted to finish the poem in a while, and he still had to take Du Jinning's math test.

"My lord, please come up with a question." Du Jinning cupped his hands.

Zhou Dongping nodded slightly, and said: "The pheasant chases the eagle."

Du Jinning has a good memory, so she knows where it came from as soon as she said it. First, let me tell you the source: "These four characters come from Geng Xin's "Winter Hunting Poems in Yingzhang" "Frightened pheasants chasing eagles, soaring apes to watch arrows turn."

After she finished speaking, she thought about it, and then slowly read: "Hundreds of empty texts, goshawks return to the ground. How to startle the shadow of the pheasant, and chase the birds of prey. ..."

Her voice was neither high nor low, so Zhou Zhi and the others could hear it naturally. Everyone was deeply shocked when they looked at the poems they wrote on their draft paper or test paper.

Why is it that the poems that I have worked so hard to write are so rubbish, while what Du Jinning reads casually are splendid articles?

But everyone also understood why Du Jinning was able to hand in the paper so early.

Even though Zhou Dongping and Li looked at Du Jinning's song "Yin Yin Xia Mu Sings Orioles", when they heard Du Jinning's casually recited verses, they were still deeply regretted.

Zhou Dong calmed down, pulled himself together and came up with another math problem: "When the old man released the sheep, he had three sons. One day, the old man passed away, and he had to share the eleven sheep and a will left by the old man."

"It is written in the will: The eldest son has meritorious service in running the family, and he can share half of the sheep left over; the second son often tends the sheep on behalf of his father, and can get a quarter of the sheep left over; One-sixth of the sheep. The will also stated that the sheep must not be killed, otherwise the old man will not rest in peace under the nine springs."

He stared into Du Jinning's eyes and asked blankly: "How can we divide the eleven sheep according to the old man's request without killing the sheep?"

"Oh, this is easy." Du Jinning said, "First borrow a sheep from the neighbor's house and make up twelve sheep. The eldest son gets six for half, the second son takes three for one-quarter, and the youngest son gets two for one-sixth." Only, the remaining one happened to be returned to the neighbor."

Zhou Dongping looked at Du Jinning, speechless for a while.

　Thank you for your understanding and understanding, hugs
