It is said that Yikang Town is a big town, but it is just compared with Anjiu Town. If it is compared with a larger town, it is not worth mentioning.

If the conditions are like this, don’t expect how good the exam is. If you are not lucky, you will be assigned to someone with a leaky rain or a bad numb, and you will not blame others.

The examination room of the Shentu Dynasty, no matter how big or small, was all facing north and south.

There are four county exams, one per day.

Before dawn, a large number of people gathered in front of the county government. Even if it was just a border town, it seemed bustling and quite lively at this time.

The students lined up quietly with the exam baskets.

When Zhu Qi, Cen Guangji, Liu Jian and others arrived, the team was not very long.

They stood in the team, and Mr. Cen was still explaining: "You are responsible for your own basketball test, do you know?"

Zhu Qi, Cen Guangji, Liu Jian and others nodded.

The test baskets are all important items, including their pens, ink, paper and inkstones, admission tickets, and food for the past few days.

This thing is about to be noticed by people. If you throw a piece of paper ball in and get checked out, they will be able to wear a "cheating" hat.

Once this hat is worn, I will not think about taking the imperial examination again in this life.

Therefore, whether it is Mr. Cen or other candidates, they will emphasize this matter - be optimistic about their own basketball test.

"Oh, isn't this the eldest son of Orchid School?"

With the joking sound, a rich and noble young man shook his fan and walked towards them.

When Cen Guangji saw that it was him, he ignored him.

"What's wrong? There's no one in Cen's school this year. Even a little kid like you is here?" The man ignored it, but the man's face was very thick. He squeezed over and joked with a smile, "

It’s not that there are not enough people to get along with each other. Let’s use you as a way to make up for the numbers, hahahahaha…”

"The dog can't spit out ivory!" Cen Guangji was still a child after all, so he couldn't help but scold him.

"When this dog spits out ivory in his mouth, wouldn't it be strange? Cen Guangji, your father didn't teach you what it means to be 'scarcity is precious'?"

Liu Jiantong couldn't bear to see his junior brother being bullied, so he blocked Cen Guangji behind him with a cold face and said, "Ma Hongkuo, please don't go to the line, you want to line up and stand behind."

His finger pointed to the end of the team.

"Who are you? How dare you talk to me like this?" Ma Hongkuo raised his chin and didn't take Liu Jiantong seriously at all.

"I'm not anyone, but like you, I'm just a candidate waiting to be tested," Liu Jiantong calmly seemed to be not caring about someone's offense just now. Instead, he persuaded him sincerely, "Everyone has worked hard for so many years, so I've asked for it.

Isn’t it just this day? Don’t delay here. If you delay the exam time, you will not be able to enter the exam room at that time.”

"Tsk! Do you care? Do you think I am a poor man like you. If you fail the exam, you have to go home to farm? My family has money. Even if you fail the exam, I can go home to be a eldest son and enjoy wealth...

…”

Before Ma Hongkuo finished his words, Cen Guangji added: "Yes, who can be like you? I'm so lucky to have an aunt who is a concubine in everyone's family. I just don't know that you have joined the Qian family.

The door, do you recognize your eldest nephew?"

"You..." Ma Hongkuo, who was exposed, suddenly felt his face hot and looked at Cen Guangji angrily.

Fortunately, at this time, the people who were traveling with him grabbed him: "Brother Ma, don't do anything randomly. The exam is about to be taken, don't delay major issues."

The man even came to Ma Hongkuo's ear and said something.

Ma Hongkuo then looked at Cen Guangji proudly and snorted coldly: "Hmph! Wait, I will definitely pass the exam this time. When I pass the exam, I will deal with you again."

Then he took a group of people and left in a swagger.

Although Zhu Qi had been studying at Cen's house for a while, he had never seen Ma Hongkuo, so he didn't know who he was, so he asked curiously.

Liu Jiantong told him that this man was not a good person, but from Bai's Academy next door.

"Originally, he wanted to worship my father, but my father disagreed, so he always disliked me. Every time he saw me, he would always provoke a few words..." After Cen Guangji finished speaking, he was puzzled, "But it's strange,"

Yes, my father said that this person has mixed thoughts and is not suitable for studying. How could he be so sure that he will pass the exam this year?"

For a moment, no one spoke.

Seeing that the team was about to reach them, Liu Jiantong reminded everyone to check their own basket exam again.

During this inspection, Cen Guangji actually found that there was an extra note in his test basket.

The experienced Liu Jiantong shook his head gently at him, signaling him not to speak out, and shouted out to the outside of the team.

"What's wrong?" Zhu San ran over, wondering what they called him at this time.

"Brother Third, I might be troubled. I suddenly remembered that when I came out, I forgot to lock the door. Go back later, please help me." Liu Jiantong said, blocking everyone's sight with his body and put the paper on the paper

The stick was stuffed into Zhu San's hand.

No, don't we live in the same house? Zhu Sancai felt that the other party was a little strange, so he felt that there was something on his hands and realized it: "Oh, you talk about this, don't worry about taking the exam, I will help

You look."

"I'm really troubled you, third brother!"

"No trouble, go!"

Zhu San also patted Liu Jiantong on the shoulder to reassure him.

He kept watching several people walk towards several officers and soldiers, and was "searched", and then he left with peace of mind.

Before every candidate enters the venue, some special "search" will come to check, asking them to take off their outer robe and reveal the innermost single robe. They will not even let go of their armpits and hair, and the inspection will be very thin.

Fortunately, when I took off my clothes, I took the person inside and looked down on him. Otherwise, the disheveled look would be really embarrassing for scholars, and it would be simply "sweeping the floor with politeness".

"Hiss...so cold!"

Zhu Qi shivered and after the examination, he was rushed inside.

He didn't tie his hair too much, so he put on his clothes and waited in the yard inside. When Liu Jian and the others came in, he helped each other tie their hair and tidy up their clothes.

Although you have some rules during the inspection, you have to clean up when you really want to enter the examination room. This is called "right clothes and clothes".

Almost all the number of people in each row and walk in.

At this time, examiners gathered.

The candidates stood behind the examiner, led by the entrusted tutor who was the guarantee, and bowed to the examiner in turn.

Then there is a guaranteed sing, and a dedicated person sings the resume of the candidate and asks the security student: "Can you guarantee?"

If the student in the statutory department answers "guarantee", then there is no problem and proceed to the next item; if the student in the statutory department has any doubts, it will be sent to the county magistrate for inspection and handling as appropriate.

It was not until this time that the candidates would get their seat signs and be taken to the examination room to get the seats.

Zhu Qi has a good fate, and the test room is located in the middle, neither forward nor backward.

The point is that it is far away from the thatched cottage.

Don’t underestimate this detail, just think about it. If there is a thatched cottage next door and someone keeps coming to the cottage, there will definitely be a sound of flushing, which will inevitably affect the candidates who answer. This is one of them.

Second, if you meet a candidate who happens to have diarrhea, the odor comes...
