Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Four: An Article

Accompanied by the melodious bells, the students from all over the world entered the examination halls one by one, and they drew the number one day in advance, found their seats, and sat down.

On this day, Wuyi ushered in its first snowfall this year.

The trembling men outside, as soon as they entered the examination room, a heat came to their faces, and their whole body suddenly became peaceful.

Each person has a table and a chair. These high-foot furniture that everyone has accepted and accustomed to in Wuyi are still rare for some scholars from Chang'an, Luoyang and even the south. However, sitting on it is much more comfortable than sitting on a shorter table.

More importantly, next to each table, there is a short table, and a teapot and tea cup is placed on it. In one corner of the examination room, boiling water is still burning on a stove, which is obviously prepared for the candidates in the examination room.

The two examiners stood in front of the room with serious expressions, staring at the candidates and took their place.

Everyone has already understood the rules of the exam. In Wuwei Academy, the relevant details of this exam were posted.

The exam was divided into two days.

On the first day, policy discussion.

The next day, current affairs.

Although every exam is a whole day, it does not limit the time for the students to hand in the paper. If you have the ability, you can only spend half a day or even less. Of course, if you are willing to spend a day, the exam room will also provide lunch. You can think about how to answer the paper while eating.

The policy theory even allows students to bring books in.

But all the students understand that the more such an exam is, the more difficult it is. If you are allowed to bring a book in, you are afraid that the person who sets the questions will not be afraid of you turning the book at all, because you can't even read it.

Just when Wuwei Academy was officially starting the exam, Xue Ping was bidding farewell to Tian Lingzi on the road outside Wuyi City.

"Tian Qingzheng, I'm going to ask you about the matter in Zhenzhou." Xue Ping bowed and said, "No matter what you think, you must ensure that Your Majesty can appear at the worship ceremony on time that day."

Tian Lingzi smiled bitterly, "I'll do my best. Xue Shangshu, you know that the Weiwei Temple is controlled by Weiwei Temple, inside and outside the palace."

Xue Ping sighed and knew that Tian Lingzi was telling the truth. In Zhenzhou, from the governor to the garrison army, from the palace guards to ordinary palace servants, who was not from the Li Ze faction?

"I have to ask you about the matter of Zhenzhou. Your Majesty's health has improved greatly. As long as Your Majesty can come out normally to take charge of government affairs, we can always make some moves back." Xue Ping said.

"I know. When I was in Zhenzhou, I tried my best to prevent Jinyuan and others from approaching the emperor. Tao Qian was responsible for the treatment of his majesty. The medicinal materials I personally purchased were made by Tao Qian himself. I didn't even dare to use their medicinal materials." Tian Lingzi said.

Xue Ping and the others fought with Li Ze in Wuyi, but in fact he was not easy at all in Zhenzhou. In addition to doing these things, he also had to ensure that he could complete his official duties. He didn't want to have problems with his official duties and was taken down by Li Ze. At that time, he was afraid that he would not even have the power to enter and exit other palaces, let alone protect the emperor. When he was serving as a servant in Chang'an, how glorious was Tian Lingzi? How could he have done so much now? Now he was completely used by Li Ze as a coolie.

Thanks to Tian Lingzi's ability, otherwise he would have been overwhelmed by these complicated things.

"This time, our military training has almost been wiped out. The limited number of people cannot become a climate, and the literary exams will not look much better." Looking towards the direction of Wuwei Academy, thinking about the exams being conducted, Tian Lingzi was full of bitterness. "Only more than 40 people could enter this exam room and compete with more than a thousand Wuwei students, the result can be imagined."

"No, no, no, my idea is exactly the opposite of you." Xue Ping shook his head and said, "There are more than 40 more people who can get to this point, which is beyond my expectations. They are so embarrassed that they can get to this point when the exam questions are definitely not what they are good at. This itself shows their ability. Even if they fail this time, they will definitely stand out next year."

"I hope this is the case!" Tian Lingzi said, "Shangshu Xue, you still have to stare. If there is really someone who stands out, you can't let Li Xiang make excuses to suppress it."

"Don't worry, I'll get out to read the papers of these people afterwards." Xue Ping said, "The most important thing in marking the papers is to reply to them. If these students are really talented, they will never be able to do something bad with Zhang's character. I still trust this person's virtue."

Tian Lingzi nodded, "Then let it be, Shangshu Xue please stay, I'll go back now."

"Be careful all the way!" Xue Ping bowed and said goodbye, watching Tian Lingzi turn over and run towards Zhenzhou with his guards braved the heavy snow.

"Shangshu, the snow is strong and the wind is strong, so you can go back to the official office too!" The guard behind him stepped forward and said.

Xue Ping shook his head, "Go to the shanty town to see where! There are thousands of people living in places now, and they are all thatched huts. It's too simple. The first snow this year is so heavy. Going back, I'm afraid there will be even more snow. Such weather is very easy to get into trouble."

"Shangshu, this is a matter between Wuyi Prefecture and Wuyi County. If you need labor, you can go and see it yourself!" said the guard.

"Why is it okay?" Xue Ping looked at him coldly, "Don't forget the details of our Ministry of Works. If you don't know, go back and check the documents carefully. The low-rent housing launched by Li Xiang is aimed at these people, and the progress of low-rent housing is obviously slower now. I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve the goal of 500 households this year. How can I do it if I don't go and see it? If something really happens, it's our fault."

"Yes." The guard retreated in fear.

The examination has been in Wuwei Academy for a long time, and the invigilators in the trial are already drowsy. It is not a big deal that they can't be energetic, because such an exam has too low presence. The only thing they can manage is not to let the students whisper. As for the cheat sheets, there is no such thing as a cheat sheet. Even if they are allowed to bring them in, are they still afraid that they will carry the cheat sheets?

The room was warm and even though they were drinking strong tea, they could only sit there and stare at them, but they couldn't help but start pecking at the rice.

When Gu Han stood up to hand in the paper, the thick cotton curtain in the examination room was unveiled from the outside. The cold wind that came to his face made the two sleeping invigilators suddenly wake up. As soon as he looked up, he saw the mountain chief of Wuwei Academy, Zhang Hui, the Minister of Rites, walked in. At the same time, they also saw Gu Han standing up.

Chapter I came to inspect the examination room.

An invigilator looked at Gu Han nervously. He really didn't expect that this person was handing in the paper, but he was a little afraid that this person was looking for a break.

"Is there anything wrong?" He hurriedly walked in front of Gu Han.

"I'll hand in the paper!" Gu Han said.

The invigilator was startled and turned his head to glance around, but found that most of the candidates also raised their heads in surprise and looked at the first guy who handed in the paper.

"Are you sure?" asked the invigilator. The rules were written like this, but in his opinion, shouldn't the exam that determines a person's life's major events? He looked down at the test paper on Gu Han's desk, but found that it was written in a dense manner, and a beautiful small calligraphy made his eyes lit up.

"I'm sure!" Gu Han smiled and said, "I've finished writing, there's nothing to write. If you stay here, you'll have to dream of Duke Zhou like the two examiners."

The examiner felt a chill. Sure enough, the unhappy candidate still revealed the truth in front of the Shangshu.

He looked at the chapter with some guilt.

Zhang Hui did not think it was offended, so he walked over and picked up Gu Han's test paper. He was attracted by the beautiful small calligraphy first.

"A good word!" Zhang Hui praised.

"Or the content is better!" Gu Han smiled and bowed back to Zhang, then walked out.

"I'll be crazy!" The invigilator said in a angrily and embarrassed.

Zhang Hui smiled and handed him the test paper, saying, "According to the rules, let's lose your name!"

"Yes, the Secretary of the People." The invigilator said quickly.

Although it was said to be a name, Zhang Hui could not help but glance at the name "Gu Han, hometown of Yangzhou."

The invigilator dug up his name and walked around the room for a while, but finally couldn't help picking up Gu Han's paper.

The topics for this year's exam are very broad, which is to ask students to write their own strategies for governing, strengthening and prospering the country in response to the current situation.

The topic is very big and there are not many requirements, and it seems easy to write. For these tests, even if you close your eyes, you will not write a deviant topic. But just as you are allowed to bring books to the scene, it is extremely difficult to write new ideas and real things for such topics.

Zhang Hui and Li Ze did not expect these people to come up with an effective strategy, but these people are elites no matter how they say it, or they may find some new and doubtful ideas from their articles.

Originally, the chapter was about to stand where to look at it briefly. It would be good to have such a big topic in half a day, and then it would be nice to express it in half a day. Gu Han completed it all in half a day, and probably had no practical stuff, but this small calligraphy is indeed pleasing to the eye.

But when he saw this, Zhang Hui could no longer move his footsteps. He sat down and started to look carefully. After watching the last section, he even closed his eyes and thought for a while.
Chapter completed!
