Chapter 310 Keep This Door Safe

The first part of the county examination is called the main field. There are two essays in the four books and one poem in the test post, which must be handed in on the same day.

But you can hand in the paper after you finish answering, but you can't leave immediately after you hand in the paper. You have to wait until after the application time, and you have to gather at least ten people before you can leave the Gongyuan in batches.

Therefore, the papers are generally not handed in early.

Taking the imperial examination is actually a very painful thing.

The imperial examination rooms are each eight feet high, four feet deep, and three feet wide. There is a narrow passage in front of it, which is convenient for the officials to come and go for inspection.

On the left and right walls of the No. 1 room, there are two rows of brick brackets, one high and one low, which are used to place wooden boards.

I usually use wooden boards to make tables and chairs for writing. If I want to rest, I put all the wooden boards on the brick support below to form a bed, but this space is very narrow, and I can’t even stretch my legs. Uncomfortable, one can imagine.

Moreover, it was still very cold in February, and cotton-padded clothes could not be worn...so there would really be examinees who froze to death alive, and those who died of illness after that happened every year and everywhere.

Liang Ruoxu sat on top, quietly looking at the candidates outside.

After Shenzheng, someone finally started to hand in the paper. The paper was handed directly to Liang Ruoxu. Liang Ruoxu took it over, glanced at him briefly, nodded to the other party, and the other party silently saluted and left.

Just when he came to hand in the papers, a yamen servant went to his room.

The man didn't notice it at all. After handing in the paper, he came back and put away his pen and ink, picked up the test basket and went outside.

Brother Tang has also finished writing.

He has always been quick-witted and writes quickly, but because he is the junior of the county lord, he doesn't want to show off too much, so he wants to wait until the second batch is released.

So I still have time to observe the people outside.

He sensed an unusual atmosphere, but after looking at it for a long time, he didn't find anything. He muttered in his heart, and after a while, he handed in the paper and asked his brother with his eyes. Liang Ruoxu gave him a hint Deep eyes.

This kind of bamboo pen is actually a relatively expensive kind of pen, and not many people use it. Looking at it this way, only about forty or so have been found.

But for the others, he didn't take it lightly, as long as those who handed in the papers, they would be checked by someone, and if there were any, they would be replaced quietly.

Of course, there may also be insiders who don't need it during the exam, and hide somewhere, just waiting to be exposed... But Liang Ruoxu is not panic, after all, cheating by one or two people is nothing, only a large number of cheating can cause serious problems. is a scandal.

Moreover, since the other party came for them, it must have been when there were many people. In the first few batches, there were not many people. If there were troubles, it would not be this time.

He waited quietly.

Time passed slowly, the sky gradually began to darken, and a large number of people handed in their papers.

At this moment, a commotion was heard ahead.

A blue-robed scholar suddenly pointed at another person and said, "Your writing brush is wrong!!!"

The man was at a loss: "What's wrong?"

The yamen servant came over quickly: "Don't make any noise in the tribute courtyard!"

The next moment, the blue-robed scholar grabbed the man's brush and threw it heavily on the ground. The brush rolled away, and nothing happened.

The yamen servant rushed to arrest him, and the blue-robed scholar was also in a hurry. He picked up the brush and broke it hard...

Couldn't break it.

The yamen servant had already arrested him, and another person rushed over and broke it hard again...

It finally broke off, revealing the stubble of the green bamboo, the man was stunned on the spot, raised his head and looked at the blue-robed scholar.

The next moment, this person was also arrested. The blue-robed scholar became anxious and shouted: "Your pen is wrong!! I saw it just now!! Kong Muxian, check if it is right!!"

At this point, it's impossible for him not to bite, and if he doesn't make this matter real, he will suffer disaster himself!

Making trouble in the Tribute Court is no small matter! ! !

The person whose name was called gritted his teeth, and suddenly went to pull the test basket of the person next to him, and then broke off his writing brush, revealing the bamboo stubble as well.

The man was also dumbfounded.

The yamen servant waited for a while, seeing that the three of them hadn't bitten or looked at others anymore, so they covered their mouths and dragged them out quickly, and brought them along with those who were bitten. come out.

Those few people still wanted to make a fuss, but the yamen servant's hands were like iron tongs, and they couldn't break free no matter what.

The crowd was in an uproar.

After the second elder brother came out, he was being poured ginger soup by Mrs. Lin, when Mr. Yuan called Xinbao: "Xinbao, come and have a look."

Xinbao came over quickly, then pointed and bit his ear: "That's him! The man in the blue robe!!"

Grandpa Yuan nodded with a smile: "Good boy, thank you very much when I turn around, Uncle."

The second elder brother's eyelashes flickered for a moment, and he lowered his eyes somewhat helplessly.

She should have known earlier that she couldn't hide it. This kind of thing really couldn't be hidden.

Still the same sentence, if they are willing to be farmers, facing the loess with their backs to the sky, no matter whether it is a tyrant like Shen Erye or a noble scholar like Yuan Lao, anyone with a little ability will hide far away If you don't make friends with them forever, then you may not be able to use Xinbao's skills for the rest of your life.

But what's the point of such a day?

As long as they want to climb up, there will be more and more things like this, and more and more people they will know. When their friendship deepens and they become important people in Xinbao's heart, they will definitely meet in a certain place. At that time, I learned about Xinbao's ability.

Therefore, what he needs to do is... guard this door well, but if the character is not good enough, he will absolutely never let his sister have too much contact with him! ! Of course, the most important thing is to become stronger, the stronger the better.

Lady Lin touched his forehead: "Are you sweating?"

The second elder brother gathered himself together: "I'm sweating, it's okay, Ma'am, I didn't even feel that cold."

Mrs. Lin hummed: "Let's go back when we're sweating?"

Tang Qingshan said: "You go back first, you take Rong'er back to rest first."

Ms. Lin didn't say much, she forcibly pulled her second elder brother away. Although the second elder brother was worried about the follow-up, he was indeed tired, so he went back with A Niang.

Xinbao, Daddy, and Mr. Yuan continued to wait.

Originally, it was just in case, and didn't expect to find anything else. Unexpectedly, Xinbao pointed again at the next release: "That person! It was his pen at that time, and it was broken by someone just now. His blue robe was torn."

The old man's eyes could not help but squint.

so?

So this proves that these people probably do not know about it, and the man in the blue robe didn't have to break someone's writing brush, but he knew a lot of people, and he counted whoever he met.

Then how this brush is sold, it is worth checking.

The few people who knew about it probably knew more than he thought.

Grandpa Yuan chuckled and patted Xinbao's head: "Little boy, you really helped Uncle a lot!!"
