Will give it a try

Before dawn, the Gongyuan was already completely surrounded on three floors inside and three outside. In addition to the candidates, there were more sergeants holding swords in their hands.

I wish I had one post at every five steps, and one sentry at ten steps. It was extremely tight, and there were brigade of officers and soldiers led by mounted military attachés to maintain order outside.

Everyone from the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion and Shuntian Mansion Yamen came.

Until the first ray of morning light emerged from the clouds, accompanied by the sound of whips to clean the streets and the sound of several cannons, the spring of the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, which determined the fate of countless people, finally kicked off.

All candidates filed into the Gongyuan. Of course, a strip inspection was indispensable before entering, but it was different from the provincial examination. In the provincial examination, two candidates were examined together, while in this examination, each candidate was examined individually.

This is a lot less embarrassing.

Xia Yuan was very familiar with this routine, and he took the initiative to take off his clothes without even using the words of the clerk of the Ministry of Etiquette who was responsible for the inspection. As soon as he was shirtless, a head poked in from outside the screen, and then

The expression on his face was one of joy.

"Master Xia, please let us find you. You don't even know how long we have been hanging around here."

Halfway through the words, Gu Dayong keenly noticed Xia Yuan's unkind expression, smiled a few times, and said in short: "His Royal Highness has been grounded by the emperor for the past few days, and he specially asked us to come here this morning to wish you high school in advance!"

After saying that, he withdrew his head from behind the screen.

Xia Yuan clenched his fists, calmed down his mood, and was about to take off his underwear, but the clerk stood up with a smile on his face, "Sir, please put your clothes on quickly, it's cold.

, but be sure not to get cold."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll get involved?"

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. To put it bluntly, do you still need to be entrained with an identity like yours?"

The clerk in the book office didn't know Xia Yuan's identity, but he knew that he was a genuine eunuch in the palace. Just now he was referring to both his highness and the emperor, which was really scary.

And there was one thing he didn't tell Xia Yuan. In fact, there was no need to take off all clothes like the provincial examination in this body test. You only needed to touch it with your hands, and then look at the headscarf and the lining of the clothes.

After all, those who take part in the examination are all Juren, and their identity and status are naturally not comparable to those of outstanding talents. If the Juren master comes in, he, a clerk in the clerk's office, shouts and orders people to take off their clothes. This is very inappropriate.

, and offend people.

But he didn't expect that Xia Yuan would take off his clothes proactively as soon as he came in. He was still a little incapable of doing it for him, so he just sat there and wanted to watch the fun.

Anyway, we didn’t ask you to take it off, so who can you blame if you take the initiative?

Of course, that was my thought just now. As for now,

The clerk in the book office accompanied him and said with a smile: "Master, please put on your clothes quickly. If you get cold, I will never be able to bear it."

"thank you."

Hearing this, Xia Yuan thanked him, put on his half-dressed clothes without saying a word, then picked up his test basket and walked out of the screen. Behind him, the clerk's voice came, "Blessings, little man."

The young master can go to high school!"

"Thank you Jiyan."

Xia Yuan did not look back, just waved his hand, and then crossed the high threshold and entered the Gongyuan.

It's good, I didn't have my pants removed and my balls touched.

The next step is different from the provincial examination. You have to go to Minglun Hall to meet the great master, and this so-called great master is naturally the examiner Xie Qian.

Xie Qian, one of the three elders of Hongzhi, was also a very well-known figure in the history of the Ming Dynasty. Xia Yuan was quite curious about this person.

After stepping into Minglun Hall, Xia Yuan saw several officials sitting in the hall, and the one sitting at the head was an old man in a red robe with a gray beard and a serious face.

Is this Xie Qian?

Thinking in his mind, Xia Yuan saluted the old man and said, "Student Xia Yuan, I have met the great master."

"You said your name is Xia Yuan?"

Xie Qian asked subconsciously after hearing this, but soon realized that the question was inappropriate, so he quickly changed his words and said: "Oh, Xia Yuan, I have some impressions of you. I remember that you took the Jie Yuan test in Shuntianfu Township last year.

Well, very good, take the exam carefully and don't be careless."

"Students must obey the instructions."

After saying that, Xia Yuan left Minglun Hall and went to another duty room to receive the test card. He lowered his head and looked at the Guiyin number.

It's a pity that his uncle has chosen to lie down and give up on the imperial examination. Otherwise, he could have listened to him explain what the examination room in Guiyin Hall is like.

"This Guiyinhao examination shed is also a good place. It faces south and faces north. It is also the furthest away from the water tank. It is also clean."

The person who spoke was the official responsible for issuing examination cards. Xia Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at him, he looked familiar.

Then, for no apparent reason, I thought of an irony in my mind. If there was someone close to the water tank, I would say it would be convenient to fetch water.

"Thanks for clearing up the confusion."

"You're welcome. Come in quickly."

Taking the examination card, Xia Yuan found the Guiyin examination shed. It is not appropriate to call it an examination shed. It should be called an examination room. It is surrounded by high walls made of green bricks on three sides. It is airtight and the open side is

There is no obstruction. This is to facilitate the examiner to supervise whether the candidates are cheating during inspection.

To sum up, it is exactly the same as the examination room where I stayed when I came to the provincial examination last time, except that it is not in the same location.

Putting the examination basket on the table, Xia Yuan sat down on the bed made of blue bricks, and then fell into a daze. Unfortunately, he could not get into the state for a long time. It has been half a year since the last provincial examination. This time

You have to try and find out the feeling.

After waiting for a long time, there were still a few gongs, and then it was time for the question.

Several guards came to his examination booth holding signs. Xia Yuan looked up and saw the eight-part question of the first exam, "Only I Have a Husband"

What the hell is this?

I’m the only one with a wife? Are the others all single?

When Xia Yuan saw this question, he immediately began to mourn for the candidates and at the same time for himself. The question asked in this question was even more evil than the indecent behavior last time.

But it is understandable. After all, it is a general examination, and the difficulty must be raised several levels. It cannot be simpler than the provincial examination, otherwise what is the test?

At this time, many candidates in the examination room had already begun to greet Xie Qian's family, but greetings were still greetings, and this question still had to be answered, so after everyone had finished greetings, they began to think hard about this question.

I have a husband's background.

Of course Xia Yuan was also thinking about it, but it was different from other people's cautious mentality. Others thought of the source, and then thought about whether there were other sources, and then carefully screened it to avoid making mistakes.

And as long as he thinks of one thing, he won't think about it again. If he thinks about it over and over again, he will easily suffer from difficulty in choosing, which will only increase his troubles.

As for the four words "Only I have a husband," Xia Yuan also quickly thought of the source, citing the Analects of Confucius, where the Master said to Yan Yuan: "If you use it, you will do it, if you leave it, you will hide it. But I and you have this husband."

Then, he emptied his mind, entered a state of enlightenment without distracting thoughts, and then quietly felt the power of his predecessor. It sounded mysterious, but in fact it was just a daze.

After sitting blankly for a while, he soon felt the power from his predecessor.

Xia Yuan polished it slowly, and then began to write and break the topic calmly, "The sage's secrets should only be revealed to those who can."

While writing, he felt the joyful feeling in his heart, and his thinking became smoother and smoother. "The behavior of a saint is not easy to regulate. Only when you look at it can you talk about it."

As I said a long time ago, I, Xia, rely on cheats.
