All-Heavens Star Chart

A group of talented students who participated in the autumn examination of the township examination stood in front of the gate of Gongyuan and waited until Mao, when the gate of Gongyuan was slowly opened.

With the sound of three cannons, the thirteenth year of Hongzhi’s autumn is just beginning.

The first to walk out of the gate of the Gongyuan was not the academic and political examiners who presided over the township examination, but two teams of sergeants dressed in splendid gowns and slender long knives on their waists.

I raised my eyes and glanced at the costumes of the two sergeants, Zhou Chen’s eyes condensed slightly.

Flying fish suit, Embroidered Spring Blade, this is the unique outfit of the Bright Gown Guard.

Emperor Hongzhi obviously attached great importance to the imperial examinations of the dynasty. At the moment, it is only the autumn examinations held by the provincial Xuezheng Gongyuan, and the Bright Gown Guard, the emperor’s pro-army, came to guard the order of the examination room.

After the Bright Gown Guard lined up, a team of examiners walked out of the gate of the Gongyuan. The head Examiner began to explain the order of the examination room to the talented students present, with a serious and serious voice. Cold again.

After talking about one hour, the Head Examiner waved his sleeves and announced: “Open the door! Enter!”

With this voice After falling, all the candidates in the field couldn’t help but sighed in relief. They lifted up their book boxes and packages, preparing to enter the Gongyuan.

Just after crossing the gate of Taiyuan Gongyuan, all the candidates went to the long hall on the left and right sides of the gate under the guidance of the examiner and a group of Bright Gown Guards.

This is the East and West Hall of Calling, and it is the place where all the candidates clicked.

After finishing the order, a group of candidates went to the East and West Dashi Fields in the Gongyuan respectively, and a Bright Gown Guard sergeant searched and checked whether the candidates had hidden cheat sheets.

Guangyang Mansion where Zhou Chen is located was divided into the facade of Dongdazhachang, and it was the first batch of body searches and inspections.

He and Lu Xiucai and other eleven candidates stood quietly with their arms outstretched.

The Bright Gown Guard soldiers stepped forward and took off their azure clothes, leaving only the underclothes inside.

Bright Gown Guard started to check it very carefully, from top to bottom, without any exception.

Even the cuffs, headbands, footwear and socks are all checked.

Apart from this, the bookcases and packages that candidates carry with them are not let go.

Even the noodles prepared by the candidates themselves were broken into small pieces by the sergeants, and they were checked for entrainment and cheat sheet.

During the entire inspection, the Bright Gown Guard sergeants who started the search did not have any words, and their expressions did not change at all. The whole person was as rigid and harsh as a puppet machine.

Fortunately, these talented students in the field can be regarded as the future pillar talents of the Imperial Court, so they can avoid being searched in the close-fitting clothes.

If not, the scholars who were present might have already protested with red eyes. After all, they were touched clean inside the underclothes in the public. This is really insulting.

The first Zhou Chen was the first to be checked. After he put on his clothes, he was nodded to Lu Xiucai, who was still being checked, and then followed the examiner to his own house. NS.

Entering the house, Zhou Chen secretly nodded, the house is clean and tidy.

Zhou Chen’s luck is already pretty good. Although this house is very small, the repairs are quite perfect.

At least there are no gaps on the roof, so you don’t have to worry about rain and leaks during the exam.

There is a small table and chair in the center of the building. The exam papers for the first stage of this autumn season have already been prepared on it. He didn’t start answering the test immediately, instead he took out the water bag and noodles prepared in advance from the package and ate it.

After all, from the beginning of the day to the present, Zhou Chen has not entered the rice, dripping water, even if it is the imperial examination, he has to fill his stomach.

After eating the equivalent to three pieces of noodles with the broth in the water bag, Zhou Chen sat down in front of the desk contentedly and prepared to start answering questions.

The township examination in autumn is divided into three sessions, and each test will last for three full days.

If you change to other candidates, after tossing such a big morning, you will definitely have to take a rest for a while, and then you will start to answer the exams later.

However, Zhou Chen as a Martial Artist, his own Essence, Qi, and Spirit are far beyond the comparison of ordinary scholars.

Even if he stays awake for three days and three nights, Zhou Chen’s Essence, Qi, and Spirit will be strong enough for most of the candidates in the field.

So when Zhou Chen was full of water and food, he leaned over to the front of the desk and started to write quickly.

There are a total of seven exam questions in the First Stage exam of Qiuwei in this township examination. Three of the questions are from the Four Books, and the other four questions are from the Five Classics. The candidates need to answer a total of seven essays.

In the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, there was not much room for candidates to play freely. Everything was admitted in accordance with the strict and standardized eight-leg method.

All the test questions come from a certain section of the road in the Four Books and Five Classics, and the test taker will use this to quote the answers from the classics.

Moreover, the answers to the exam questions must also have a fixed style format, which consists of eight parts: breaking the question, accepting the question, starting the lecture, entering the question, starting stock, middle stock, back stock, and bundle stock.

Even the length of the sentence, the complexity of the text, the height of the tone, etc. have fixed requirements. They must be relatively written, and there are restrictions on the number of words.

So in the end, almost most of the answers given by the candidates are actually the same.

In this situation, the imperial examination is not actually about the examinee’s own knowledge, but whether the examinee’s reading of the Four Books and the Five Classics is huge.

If the amount of reading is not enough, I am afraid that it is not even clear which of the four books and five classics the test questions come from, so how can it be answered by quotations.

However, this is very beneficial to Zhou Chen. If he is asked to interpret the meaning of the Sage articles in the Four Books and Five Classics, it will really embarrass him.

However, Zhou Chen would be more suitable for the current test questions that are biased towards memory.

With the tireless preparation for the exam in the past few months, Zhou Chen can completely memorize the Four Books and Five Classics.

Looking up and scanning the test paper on the desktop, he was able to find in his mind which one and which chapter of the four books and five classics the question came from, so as to make the corresponding answer by citing the classics.

In this way, although Zhou Chen’s answer can’t be called is so novel and not refreshing, it can definitely be said to be quite well-formed and no one can fault it.

The praise of Jieyuan and Yayuan may be impossible, but there is absolutely no problem with Zhongju.
