Chapter 70 70Hitting someone with a stick

The Jiujiang Prefecture Examination Yuan was built according to the standards of Gong Yuan, surrounded by tall walls. It is said that the inside was built according to the examination sheds. The small examination sheds are where the candidates answer their papers.

Although the examination hall is a bit shabby and the place is smaller, after all, Jiujiang Prefecture does not have that many candidates coming to take the exam, but building such an examination room is also to prevent academic officials from the province from coming here to conduct a college exam.

There is no prescribed examination location for the college examination. It is different from the township examination and the general examination, and it is not as random as the county examination.

Although the college examinations in Jiangxi Province are mostly held in Gongyuan, the provincial capital of Nanchang, the exams for academic officials can also be held in one of the following prefectures.

In fact, most of the college examinations are conducted separately by province. After all, the number of children accumulated over the years is still relatively large, and they are all in the province, and transportation is easy to deal with. Therefore, there are really too many candidates to register for each college examination.

The college examination is divided into several examinations, which actually doesn't matter to the candidates. After all, the scholar's honors are distributed according to the region, and it does not depend on the level of your composition. As long as you surpass the local candidates, you can pass the college examination and get the "student member" qualification.

Of course, Wei Guangde and the others came in here, and they also brought in a few candidates from Pengze County. They all met at the wine table, so they naturally wanted to make it easier. But they didn't see Zeng Yuanrui, and they didn't know that he was squeezed into that corner. went.

At a quarter past two o'clock, the gate of the examination hall opened. Under the command of the yamen officer in front of the gate, the candidates were divided into several rows according to their admission tickets, that is, the test guide. They were searched before they could enter the gate.

This time Wei Guangde did not mention the test basket. After all, it was a government examination. Everything needed in the examination room was provided by the government. However, Wei Guangde was still embarrassed after entering the gate. The curtain hanging behind the gate was where the body search would be conducted.

There is a preliminary inspection at the gate. When you get here, you have to take off your clothes, pants, shoes and hats for inspection to prevent anyone from getting something in your clothes.

Fortunately, the inspection was carried out while wearing underwear. The weather in April was not too cold, so it was acceptable to just take off the outer clothes, and there was no search for the soldiers to tease Wei Guangde's birds in a bad way.

Wei Guangde came out from behind the curtain and had just completed the search. A clerk looked at his admission ticket and showed him the location of the examination room.

Fortunately, Wu Dong had mentioned these procedures to him before, and they did not affect Wei Guangde's exam mood.

I heard that the same is true for the searches in the hospital and township examinations. The county examinations are not so complicated at all.

Sitting in his own examination booth, the examination booth was very small, with only a table and chairs, and walls on three sides. There was no door in the front, so it was just wide open.

Someone soon brought things for the examination, including pens, inks, paper, inkstones, and answer sheets. As for the examination questions, it would take a while. Someone should bring them out after all the candidates have entered the room.

Wei Guangde was not in a hurry as he sat there. He first poured water into the inkstone and began to grind it gently. The preparations had to be done well.

The rules of the government examination are actually similar to those of the county examination. There are three consecutive exams, including tests on the four books, five classics, eight-legged essays, and poems. If you pass the first exam, you will be considered to have passed the government exam. If you fail the next two exams, it will not matter.

Wei Guangde's small calculation was naturally to go straight through the main field, skip the subsequent exams, save his luck, and continue to use it in the college exam.

Yes, Wei Guangde has realized that he has the aura of the protagonist and the feeling of being the son of luck, but he is not sure yet. After all, there are several exams ahead, and he does not know how many times his aura can protect him.

After the county examination, this time Wei Guangde came to take the government examination. He also heard from his cousin that Tang County Zun had asked about his affairs. If the clerk in the ceremonial house sold well, he would not just pass it by like this. It was only after the county examination that I mentioned this when I met Wu Dong.

Regardless of whether this was the case or not, since everyone had spoken, Wu Dong immediately offered some benefits.

The test questions for this government examination were also announced soon after. It was very different from the county examination. There were still two questions on the Four Books, one question on the Five Classics, and one test poem. The only addition was the silent writing of part of the designated Four Books and Five Classics. , but also explain its meaning.

Regarding dictation and explanation, this is Wei Guangde's strong point. We rely on his excellent memory for the exam, otherwise Wei Guangde would have been studying at home how to be a good Zhuangtou, Zhuangtou's morals and cultivation.

But when he saw the test questions, Wei Guangde was shocked.

Three eight-part essays, completed in one day, is nothing. After all, I have the foundation, but one of the questions in this government examination is a special cross-section question, and it is a cross-section question that Wei Guangde has never done before.

After looking at the other questions, they were all fine. The one that was a little more brain-burning was the poem test.

As for the interception question, Wei Guangde planned to put it aside for now.

It is necessary to do it. If you can’t answer all the questions, why should you take the government exam? But this question is indeed a bit difficult.

"Knock the boy on the shin with your stick."

These are two passages in The Analects of Confucius. The original sentence of the first sentence "knocking on his shin with a stick" is "The original land Yi Qizi said that the younger brother is young and has no grandchildren. The elder brother is long and has nothing to say. The old but not dead is a thief and knocks with the stick." Its shin.”

This means that Yuan Rang was sitting with his legs spread apart, waiting for Confucius. Confucius said: "You were not humble and disrespectful to your elder brothers when you were a child. You will not be worthy of praise when you grow up. If you don't die when you are old, you are really a harmful guy." After that, he hit his calf with his cane.

The original words of the following sentence "quedang boy" are "quedang boy asked about his life and asked him who would benefit from it. I saw him in the position and saw him walking side by side with his teacher. He was neither a person seeking benefits nor a person who wanted quick success." , just talking about the meaning of the test questions, he is a boy from the Kan Party.

In fact, there are many classifications of interception and matching questions. They are divided into long and short matching according to the length of the questions. There are also sentimental and ruthless matching according to whether the questions are related. Of course, there are other classifications, but as far as Wei Guangde has seen so far, This question is a ruthless match.

Beating the calf with a stick, a boy from the Kan Party.

Well, Wei Guangde put aside this somewhat troublesome question and copied two eight-part essays that he was familiar with. This time, he really copied them directly into the answer sheet. There was no time to write a draft.

After copying two eight-part essays, Wei Guangde also completed the silent writing of the Four Books and Five Classics. In the end, he just copied it by rote and finished the test poem during the lunch distribution. Wei Guangde didn't have time to go to the latrine all morning.

Fortunately, I still have a whole afternoon to deal with that ruthless question.

After lunch, Wei Guangde first checked all the questions he had done in the morning. Until now, he had not thought of a way to solve the questions, so he had to carefully check what he had already done to ensure that there were no mistakes.

So far, Wei Guangde still feels that writing eight-legged essay is really difficult and too brain-consuming. It is not as simple as just turning on "Play" and doing it.
