I haven't seen each other for nearly a year. Several friends were very excited to meet each other. Duan Yunfei grew taller and turned into a handsome young man. What is rare is that Guo Chuxin also came along, saying that he met on the road. Come and cheer on your friends.

Apart from Duan Yunfei, the one who changed the most is Tang Yi. He was still a high-spirited young man when he parted.

Tang Yi brought his friends home, and several of them had a good drink. Speaking of Tang Yi's changes, several of them were very curious, so Tang Yi told them what he had seen and heard during his half-year study tour. I fell into a deep shock.

Duan Yunfei said: "We study hard behind closed doors all day long, and we still have too little knowledge. I really want to go out and see the mountains and rivers when I have time."

"That's right," Fu Zhongxing said with emotion, "If Brother Tang hadn't mentioned it, I would never have imagined that the outside world would be like this anyway. Alas, I used to talk about big things in the past. Now that I think about it, I'm really ashamed." .”

"I'm different from you," Cui Zhong said with a smile, "I just want to go to the far-away county town and try my best to help the people there get out of poverty."

"Brother Cui, Gao Yi!"

"Yeah yeah."

"Hey, let me say, what are you poor scholars talking about here? You can't do things without money. I guess you will all have to borrow money from me. Hahaha, hurry up and toast me, or you won't borrow money at that time." You guys." Guo Chui said casually, waving his folding fan.

"I think you have lost money." Tang Yi said: "Let's save him and dig him out of money."

"By the way, move his money away."

"Hahahaha-"

All of them were cheerful, and their clear laughter made the sweltering summer afternoon a bit cooler.

During the period before the exam, Duan Yunfei and others lived in Tang Yi's house, and several friends were the same as before, gathering together in front of a big table every day to do simulation questions and discuss together.

Once I did the questions, I found that the style of Tang Yi's articles is completely different from the previous ones. There are obviously many more practical, effective and beneficial things. This makes Duan Yunfei and the others very interested, and the direction of the discussion is going to the topic unconsciously. The people's livelihood and practical issues have improved. In just half a month, the articles of the few of them have more practical things and less empty talk. Tang Yi sent their articles to Cheng Yang to read, and Cheng Yang also said to write getting better and better.

The scorching heat of the hot summer finally faded on the day of Liqiu, and the first ray of cool autumn wind ushered in.

After another seven or eight days, the heat completely subsided, and the students all over the city were boiling, and the exam was coming soon.

The capital is very lively during this period, almost every inn is full of people, and the price of accommodation and meals has doubled several times. The Sheng Dynasty has a total of three tribute houses, all of which can participate in the examination, but more candidates still choose to come to the capital. The test results at the foot of the emperor will be better than those in the other two places.

The Xindamen fast food restaurant has been full of people from morning to night for more than a month. Tang Zheng led all the staff and was extremely busy. Even the newcomer Tang An was in the store all day long. help.

Only Wen Yan, who is the boss, rarely appeared. He personally took care of Tang Yi's daily life at home every day, and even Aunt Hui couldn't intervene.

Wen Yan was even more nervous than Tang Yi. They finally reached this point and were facing the most difficult hurdle.Those who can take part in the examination are the best from all over the world, and many of them are experienced candidates who have been in the examination for ten or eight years.

So Wen Yan is very cautious, from diet to daily life is meticulous and delicate, even Tang Yi smiled helplessly and said that he was raised by Wen Yan to be fat and strong, and it would be no problem to live in the examination room for ten or eight days.

That’s what I said, but the exam is very difficult, and the exam questions are more practical. Those empty and gorgeous words, no matter how beautiful or romantic they are, will never catch the examiner’s eyes. This is also the weakness of many candidates. Tang Yi doesn’t think he is going out to travel In half a year, I can compare my experience with those candidates who are 50 to [-] years old, and I still feel a little nervous.

Before dawn in the morning, the streets and alleys of the capital city were already alive. Candidates from all over the country took to the streets one after another, looking tense and serious. Their destination was only one, the examination room.

Tang Yi and the others packed up the test baskets a day in advance, and Wen Yan brought everyone a small bag of clean rice, a small stove, a small pot, and a large section of sausage and dried meat.They still have to cook and eat by themselves in the examination room. These things take up little space and are not troublesome to make. They are good dry food.Avoid bringing oil in the examination room, one is to avoid fire, and the other is to avoid greasy stains on the test papers, so sausages and jerky are also very necessary.

Tang Yi and the others took the examination basket, got into the carriage, and went straight to the examination room. Their residence was not too far from the examination room, and the road was easy to walk. When they arrived at the examination room, there was almost no need to line up, and they began to undergo body searches, and they were quickly picked up. No. house sign, found his own cabin.

After putting his things away and sitting upright, Tang Yi calmed down and waited for the exam to start. He was pleased to find that the number room this time was much larger than that of the rural exam. At least he could sleep with his legs straight, and the desk given The stool board is also quite wide, so you don’t have to worry about rolling it off when you sleep. Moreover, the board has been painted with new paint, smooth, flat, and solid, and it is very smooth to write on.

Sure enough, the conditions of the examination room in the capital city were better.

At dawn, all the examinees are already in their seats, the examination room is closed, and the examination questions begin to be distributed. Candidates who are late can no longer come in. They have to wait two years to come back. They have to pay a heavy price for their lack of time. .

The test questions are still presented by the small officials in the examination room holding a tall sign. The small officials here are very gentle and treat the candidates well. He was very considerate while reading the question stems. The exam questions walked around the examination room three times, so that every candidate could write down the question stems.

In short, the exam conditions are the best among the several exams Tang Yi has experienced, but at the same time, the exam questions are also the most difficult.

In front of Tang Yi, there are six sheets of paper, one is the official answer sheet, and the other five are large draft papers, which are enough for a candidate who loves to write and draw on them.

Tang Yi carefully put the answer sheet into the test basket, wrapped it with clothes, then took out the paperweight, flattened the draft paper, looked at the question just copied, and thought carefully.

This session is about the four books. The test questions choose a sentence from each of "University", "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "Mencius". When answering the question, candidates need to combine these three sentences to find the direction.But Tang Yi knew that this was not just about academics, and it was not just about these three sentences, but about current politics. This was Cheng Yang's reminder to them.Of course, Cheng Yang is not the only one who knows this, almost all experienced masters know this, the test is not a test of knowledge, but a test of political ability.

This time, Tang Yi did not finish answering the questions in advance like the provincial examination. Instead, he pondered over and over again, dismantling the questions into details. This alone took him half a day, and then he used the remaining half day to make an outline , made a tree diagram, added here, subtracted there, and the whole paper turned into a mess of graffiti. walk away.

At the same time, Tang Yi did not miss any of his three meals a day. He cooked rice and jerky patiently and carefully for each meal. He knew the importance of maintaining ample energy, and even slept for a while after lunch. Son.

The weather was neither hot nor cold, and the two boards together were spacious and flat. Tang Yi covered himself with a layer of clothes and went to bed early. He even had a good sleep at night and had no dreams all night.

The next day was another energetic day. Tang Yi stretched his waist, stood up in the number room, adjusted his tune, and moved his hands and feet. After breakfast, he began to answer questions.

It took a whole day to type the draft. Tang Yi carefully set aside two pieces of draft paper, copied the final draft, checked for typos and copied it again before he dared to copy it on the answer sheet.Typos are not allowed on the official answer sheet. If there are traces of modification and smearing, the impression to the examiner will be greatly reduced. Even if the literary talent is outstanding, it will not be ranked well, so you must be careful when copying the test paper. Smudge modification.

Tang Yi wrote his name, seat number, etc. on the answer sheet the next afternoon, and then carefully sealed his name and seat number, and waited until the next morning when he did morning exercises, had breakfast, and was refreshed , just wiped the table board with a dry cloth, unfolded the answer sheet, pressed it on the paperweight, and copied it wholeheartedly.

He was single-minded and concentrated, and when he finished copying the answer sheet, he felt extremely tired.

Most of the day has passed, and after copying the answer sheet, he has nothing to worry about, so Tang Yi is not in a hurry to eat, but waits patiently until the ink is dry before carefully wrapping up the answer sheet and sealing it in the answer sheet bucket.On this day, there were inspectors walking back and forth with trays. When candidates handed in the papers, they could hand in the answer rolls directly. When they came to Tang Yi, Tang Yi immediately handed in the papers. He saw the tray There are already four or five answer sheets, and it's not too early to hand them in.

After handing in the papers, there was nothing else to do, and the simulated question bank in his mind had been done several times. Tang Yi simply chewed the jerky, his eyes glazed over, and he relaxed.

It wasn't until the exam was over that Tang Yi packed up his things and walked out of the exam room. A few friends met outside the exam room. Wen Yan and Guo Chuxin were already waiting for them outside the carriage.Several people looked at each other and smiled, tacitly did not talk about the content of the exam.Instead, he returned home, ate a meal calmly, took a hot bath early, and had a good night's sleep.

The second test will be held on the next day, and the third test will be the next day after the second test. The time is very tight, and rest is the first priority.

After all three exams were over, Tang Yi and the others really felt refreshed and comfortable, and then there was a period of nothing to worry about, but they completely put aside their studies and took a good breath.

Tang Yi's relaxation is sticking to Wen Yan. Whether he is shopping with friends or going to a restaurant to help with affairs, he always follows Wen Yan's buttocks, just like a follower who is strict.

The rankings will be released a month later. Most of the candidates chose to stay in the capital and wait to see their results. Duan Yunfei and others continued to stay at Tang Yi's house to eat and drink. The house was very lively.

It's just that as the time for the release of the rankings is getting closer, everyone is getting more and more nervous. This is the fateful moment!
