Be a master through ancient times

The place hadn't been used in ages and dust was everywhere.They sent someone over to clean up the dust before they went in.

"Let's look for one box per person, and let us know if you find it." Chu Ci said, there are three of them here, and no matter what, they have to find everything today.

After he finished speaking, he opened a mouthful of the box, and then rummaged down.There are all kinds of messy things in it. Chu Ci picked up a book, looked through the contents, and found that it seemed to be a ledger.

He put the things aside and continued to rummage down.Finally, I found a suspected examination paper at the bottom.He opened it and saw that it was indeed a sample paper.

"Found it!" Chu Ci yelled, and the other two also leaned over.

"Chu Siye, this seems to be Jiayou's 37-year quarterly examination paper. There must be three other volumes in it." Zhang Dianji stared at the examination paper for a while, and after trying to identify the red paper seal, he said firmly.

Chu Ci didn't understand the words on it. Presumably, this should be like a secret skill of doctors, and it belongs to the unique identification method of classics.

He put this sample roll in the corner, then went to dig out the box for a while, and finally found the other three rolls.It seems that the things in this box are not as messy as they imagined, and the previous books should be packed according to the year.

Later, Kou Jing also found four volumes in another box.He put the things in the corner and opened another box.

The three of them searched from the afternoon until the evening, and when the last rosy glow disappeared from the sky, they finally rummaged through all the dozens of large boxes.

Because books are most afraid of humidity, the library pavilion is built in a place facing south, where sunshine can be seen all year round.It was midsummer, and it was hotter inside Zangshu Pavilion than outside. If Chuci hadn't sent someone to bring a tank of water, they might have collapsed in the afternoon.At this time, they finally found everything, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Dianji counted the sample papers they found, and then said: "Chu Siye, all the previous sample papers are here, plus the fifteen volumes from Shangguan, there are 130 and five volumes in total."

That is to say, this quarterly exam started in the first year of Jiayou? "Okay, thank you for your hard work, you call a few people to come over and move these things to the office for me, and then you can go back."

"Thank you, Chu Siye, I'll call someone to move it right now." Zhang Dianji walked quickly and disappeared in front of them in a short while.

"Going really fast."

After Chu Ci finished speaking, he glanced at Kou Jing, and then burst out laughing.Just now because he had something to do, Chu Ci didn't notice the black marks on Kou Jing's face, which looked like a big cat. Now that he saw it, he was overjoyed.

"Huaijin?" Kou Jing called out in doubt, not knowing why he laughed wildly all of a sudden.

"There's too much dust in this box, and it's stuck on your face. Wipe your face quickly, those little bastards will definitely laugh wildly when they see it."

Kou Jing frowned, dipped her hands in water and wiped her face a few times, not only did not wipe off the dirty place, but instead wiped the black marks all over her face, making it look even dirtier.

"I didn't wipe it, you lower your head, and I'll wipe it for you." After Chu Ci finished speaking, he took out his handkerchief and prepared to wipe it for Kou Jing. After all, he is also an adult of a thousand households. Are people joking?

Kou Jing's eyes lit up, then she obediently lowered her head and put it in front of Chu Ci.Chu Ci wetted the veil with tea, and then helped Kou Jing wipe it carefully.While he was wiping, Kou Jing kept staring at him without blinking, making Chu Ci feel a little uncomfortable.

"What are you looking at me for?" Chu Ci asked, Kou Jing immediately closed her eyes.

Chu Ci couldn't laugh or cry: "I didn't tell you not to look at it, okay, wipe it clean, open it."

Kou Jing felt a little regretful when she saw that Chu Ci took a step back.A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, and he said, "Huaijin, you also have it on your face, may I wipe it off for you?"

"Ah?" Chu Ci believed it was true, and quickly handed the handkerchief to Kou Jing, and at the same time raised his face, "You wipe it off for me." As a Si Ye who pays great attention to his image on the outside, Chu Ci will definitely not Allow yourself to be laughed at.

Kou Jing took the handkerchief, dipped in some tea, bent down slightly, supported Chu Ci's chin with one hand, and wiped his face carefully with the other, as gently as if she were wiping a piece of exquisite jade.

"Have you wiped it off? Is my face so dirty?" Seeing that Kou Jing hadn't wiped it off, Chu Ci asked aloud. He kept his face up and his neck was a little stiff.

"Oh, it's all right." Kou Jing put down her hand as if waking up from a dream, and with the other hand, she casually stuffed the handkerchief into her arms.

Chu Ci was only focused on twisting his neck, not paying attention to his actions.

"Master Si Ye, I'll let them move the things to the Si Ye Hall. You and Kou Qianhu go back to eat something first?"

"Okay, then I'll have to work." Chu Ci didn't show any politeness to him, and if they didn't leave, he didn't dare to leave this ancient book at all.

"Where is there any work? This is a matter of the lower official's job. I hope the adults will see that the lower official is still diligent, and don't pursue the laziness of the lower official before." Zhang Dianji was held by Chuci The reason is that a small official like him doesn't need to be dismissed from office at all by the Ministry of Labor.

"Where is Zhang Dianji's words? Everyone has no faults, and you can correct them. Don't think too much, you have been busy for a long time today, go back and have a good rest." Chu Ci comforted a few words, and then talked with Kou Jing went together.

They went straight back to the residence at the back, and after washing up, they began to eat.The food was ordered by Zhang Hu from the dining hall and kept warm on the stove. Although the weather is hot now, it is still not good to eat cold food.

"Brother, I'm sorry you have been busy with me for a long time today, you can go to rest after eating." Chu Ci said.

"Huaijin, you and I are so far away from each other. I just saw that you asked them to move all the sample papers to the department office. Are you going to read it at night?"

Chu Ci nodded, and then told Kou Jing what happened this morning.After Kou Jing finished listening, her face was very solemn: "These two people are worried and kind, they must have deliberately concealed you, and wanted to make you look ugly in front of everyone in the capital!"

"Oh, I'm also to blame. I was only focused on rectifying the style of study and didn't think about it at all." Chu Ci smiled wryly, "There are still six days left, so I can only find another way to review."

"Let me help you read it together. There are too many five volumes of 130, and you will definitely not be able to read them all by yourself."

"But……"

"Come on, eat quickly, and go there early after eating."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Chu Ci could only agree.

……

The table in the Siye hall was full of sample papers, and the whole room exuded an indescribable smell.After Kou Jing walked in, he backed out again. He asked Chu Ci to wait at the same place, went in and opened all the windows to ventilate the air, lit a few candles, and then called Chu Ci in.

"There are 130 five volumes in total, and Mencius is rotated every four seasons. In other words, there are about 33 examination questions from "Mencius". We need to find these out first."

Kou Jing nodded, and then the two sat facing each other, with a pile next to each of them.

In order to show off its own cultural heritage, Tixue Dao gives very awkward questions, and sometimes puts some confusing things on it, making it confusing for people to examine the questions.So they had to read the entire set of exam questions before they could tell which one of the four books it was testing.

It was already halfway through the night, and under the dim candlelight, Chu Ci tried his best to open his eyes wide and look at the sample paper in his hand, shaking his head from time to time to prevent himself from falling asleep.

His eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and the words in the book looked blurry, and there were even double images. When Chu Ci was about to fall asleep, he suddenly woke up again, shook his head vigorously, and continued to stare at his hands with wide eyes. After reading the content of the sample paper, sort it into categories.

Kou Jing watched meticulously, and every time she finished reading a volume, she went to take the next volume.He was in good health, and he often read military books until midnight when he was in the barracks.

"Pa", the sound of the sample paper falling on the ground made Kou Jing look up. It turned out that Chu Ci finally couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep lying on the table, and the things in his hands naturally fell.

"Huaijin, Huaijin? Brother Ci?" Kou Jing called out softly, seeing that Chu Ci hadn't moved at all, she put down the sample paper in her hand, stood up and walked to Chu Ci's side.

He bent down, picked up Chu Ci horizontally, and walked into the inner room of Siye Hall.There is a small couch here, and Chu Ci would occasionally take a nap in it on weekdays.

He carefully placed Chu Ci on the bed, then picked up the thin quilt beside him and covered him.Chu Ci turned over with his eyes closed, put his foot on the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep.

Kou Jing sat beside him for a while, and saw that there were few mosquitoes here, so she went back to the front hall with confidence.He was about to sit down, but suddenly he straightened up again, walked to Chu Ci's desk, carried the stack of sample papers in his hand and moved them to his desk, and then continued to look at the sample papers.

By the time Kou Jing finished reading the last copy, it was already Yinshichu, and it would be dawn in another hour.Kou Jing looked at the sample papers on this table, and simply didn't sleep.

He took a copy of "Mencius", and while comparing the content on the sample volume, he marked it with a pen.

……

As soon as Chu Ci opened his eyes, he was dodged by the sunlight penetrating through the window. He stretched out his hand to block it, but his mind was still blank, not knowing where he was.

After he cleared his mind, he immediately scrolled down in a jerk, oops!I haven't finished what I did yesterday!

He ran to the front hall, just as Kou Jing was walking in.

"What's wrong?" Kou Jing asked.

"Brother, why didn't you wake me up yesterday? It's over. I asked Dr. Yu to call everyone for a meeting yesterday. I haven't found out the content yet. How can I have a meeting?"

"Don't panic, I've already divided up the sample papers. The exam questions from previous years are also drawn on the book, you can just take it later."

Chu Ci listened to Kou Jing in a daze, did he do it all night by himself?
