Dongdongdongdongdong-

The sound of morning drums coming from the morning light woke up the sleepy young and old men in the test site. Jingzhao Prefecture Party is located in the southeast corner of Guangdefang, close to Anhuamen Street, so the sound of morning drums is naturally particularly deafening. However, when someone yawned lazily and rubbed his shoulders that were hurt by the hard ground all night, he was shocked to find that the person beside him not only slept very well, but could even hear the sound of snoring. Even as more and more morning drums on the streets were still sounding in unison, he could still not cover the snoring sounds, his face finally changed subtly.

"This Du Shijiulang was sleeping so hard! He was even lying loudly with drums!"

Hearing his yell, he tossed and turned all night long after taking the exam for the first time and muttered: "He can fall asleep in this airy place on all sides! I can't get it back sooner or later, and the second test paper of today will be handed out at the time of Mao!"

After the test yesterday, when I saw a doctor who came to check Du Shiyi's wound and bandage it again, he sighed in a low voice: "Luoyang, which set off on the eighth day of the eighth month, and then came back on the thirteenth of August. Even if I traveled day and night, I should have had to take a night of rest. If I had entered the city early last night, I could have had another night of rest, but I encountered such incredible things. Du Langjun was really lucky!"

"If he is not lucky, what is others? It is a great blessing to be able to catch up in the end. Wang Shisanlang has such a reputation that he can only recuperate at home at this time, which makes people sigh!"

"When it comes to this, the injuries on Du Langjun's body last night looked scary. It wasn't that the injury attack, so I couldn't get upset, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted a lot of discussion. While speaking, a person came to Du Shiyi, and reached out his hand to look on his forehead with a serious expression. Almost at the same time, he found that his subordinates trembled slightly, and then suddenly opened his eyes. Looking at each other, Du Shiyi, who had just woken up from the deep sleep, just relaxed, and Zhang Jian, who was startled, breathed a sigh of relief: "Du Langjun is awake, everyone is still worried about your injury!"

"It doesn't matter if the injury is not important. The doctor said it was treated last night. It was all skin injuries. At that time, we had already discovered the clues and were wary. Otherwise, if there were few people, how could we survive."

Du Shiyi had already completely agreed with Chibi and others, and even had some extremely trivial details, so he almost never slept all night the night before. Yesterday's post was not a difficult test for him, so he slept like a dead person this night. If it weren't for Zhang Jian's hand coming up, he might have slept straight until the examiner Yu Feng, the county magistrate of Lantian, arrived. After sitting up, he thanked the people around him with a smile. When a servant outside was carrying water outside, he was holding water and shouting for water, he stuffed it casually and took a handful of money from the pillow and stuffed it to Zhang Jian.

"Du Langjun, you are..."

"It is best to use your own food, but you can't just wash it, right? The well is too far away, so I still have some inconvenience now, so I can only work Brother Zhang to buy water."

Since Zhang Jian showed his face at Concubine Dou Lu's birthday party, most of the poems and poems that were invincible in the past, and even those poems that were despised in the past praised and even spread, not to mention that he was as proficient as the prime minister Song Jing and the emperor Li Longji, which became a rare stepping stone. He was a talented person, and once he got the opportunity to seize the opportunity, he would naturally be like a Heshi Bi met Bian He. The only disadvantage was that he was born in Jiangnan and was short of money. Although he received more funding for many months, he could have a sudden increase in social engagements and his expenses were also rising. When he entered the trial stage, he had only a handful of money left, and he had to prepare for subsequent expenses.

Therefore, he originally planned to endure it during the trial stage. After struggling to survive the three days, he was holding the money at this moment. His face changed for a while, and finally he let out a sigh of relief. Du Shiyi clearly planned to help him, but he was still so concerned about his face. How could he not touch him who was already grateful to him?

"Since that's the case, I'll go and have someone bring water!"

Even if the children of aristocratic families have servants to accompany them, they can only be sent outside the venue, so when they enter the trial venue, they have to rely on themselves. For example, through a long distance, they go to the well southwest of Jingzhao Prefecture to fetch water and wash. None of the children of aristocratic families are happy, so they have just developed the act of a servant carrying water to sell. As for the poor, they not only have to be self-sufficient, but also often be scolded and ridiculed by clerks. At this time, Du Shiyi and Zhang Jian took turns to go out. After returning to wash with water, they saw someone coming in from outside in a wet and despair, which seemed to be humiliated.

Zhang Jian's face turned pale for a moment. Seeing that the man returned to his seat without saying a word, he muttered to himself: "I recognize that man, and he is also a famous scholar in Hedong, but his family is poor, and he didn't expect..."

A scholar next to Du Shiyi immediately sneered: "Famous scholars in Hedong? There are not many famous scholars every year? There are many talents in the world who are determined to be Jinshi. But when the search is conducted, the clerks are still shouting and drinking like slaves! Moreover, we have the best luck in the palace examination at this time. If the heat has not subsided in July, heatstroke is common. As for the provincial examination, there will be no such luck again. Either the first lunar month or February. At that time, the examination will be held in the capital of the Shangshu Province, and there is only a single seat underneath. If such a body of water is poured into ice, half of the life will be removed!"

Every time he said, the new candidates who took the exam could not help but look pale, while those who had more words in and out of the subjects were as usual. It should be noted that the quota of Jinshi in the village every year was not only fixed, but also only valid at one time. That is, if they failed the provincial examination, they would have to wait for the county examination and prefecture next year! Therefore, it is actually common for those who are outside of forty or fifty years.

However, Zhang Jian didn't get the most hopeful opportunity to pass the Jingzhao Prefecture Trial until this year. At this moment, he took a deep breath and whispered: "I don't want to spend a second time like this!"

"Then do your best together!"

Du Shiyi had heard Lu Hong mention the difficulties in the imperial examination, so he encouraged Zhang Jian so much that he fired and started the small charcoal stove. Then he scooped the yellow rice into the pottery and placed it on top of the head to warm it. He ate two pieces of dessert with sweet and sour butter paste.

Liu Ximing, who was standing beside him, was naturally more familiar with the advantages of money pioneering than Du Shiyi. Moreover, he prepared early, not only had hot water to wash his face, but even had the servants to find him maids to comb his hair, and even gave him two steaming Hu cakes and Sanle paste. Before he could finish his meal, he heard Ming Gong's shouting on the spot, and quickly put down his breakfast that had just eaten half. Sure enough, in a moment, Yu Feng brought two servants into the trial field in the morning light.

Although some people were unkempt, some were rushing to eat their breakfast, and some were busy cleaning up the bedding that had last night, Yu Feng had experienced such appearances of sentient beings in the imperial examination and just pretended not to see them. After all the candidates bowed unevenly, he bowed and returned the greeting, and immediately signaled the servants to send the answers one by one.

When everyone received the answer sheet that had been folded and another draft paper, he calmly said with his hands behind his back: "Today's trial of "Nine Destinies" is based on the rhyme of "Nine Destinies, and the rhyme is in the official position". There is no limit to the rhyme order."

Compared with the test questions in Wannian County before, the test questions in the second test for Jingzhao Prefecture today are undoubtedly unbiased. After all, the "Zuoshi Biography of the Spring and Autumn Period" is 200,000 words, and the number of words in the "Shangshu" is much smaller. Even those who initially planned to find out the dictionary from Du Shiyi, then breathed a sigh of relief, thought hard and started to write the draft. More people in their hearts were to continue to eat breakfast that they had not yet finished.

Du Shiyi also finished the millet porridge that had been warmed by a small charcoal furnace. When his stomach was warm and his body became warm, he focused on this trial tutor.

Fu was popular in the Han Dynasty, and it was still loved by literati and poets until the Tang Dynasty. The second essay exam in the Jinshi exam was only taken seriously since the reign of Emperor Gaozong and Wu. However, the format of the exam in the imperial examination was not the most important than the usual essays. For example, Lu Hong once told him that a test fu can be as little as 2560 words, and a large number of more than 600 words. However, it is easy for the examiners to feel that they have enough talents, and it is easy for them to be impatient. Therefore, 350 to 400 words are the most suitable. If you want to attract attention, you must work harder on the structure. The fu scores he has read, plus Lu Hong's summary, the general structure is already clear.

A long fu with three or four hundred characters is three to four pairs. Whether it can be read is the top priority. Although there is a distinction between real and virtual, if it is fascinating, it is naturally better to be realistic and practical. The next three pairs are Fuxiang, just like the neck connecting the body to the trunk and the head. The function of Fuxiang is to connect the past and the lower part; and the other is Fuxiang, which is the essence of the entire trial fu, which is hundreds of words long. In comparison, Fuxiang is just a prelude to the foundation, and this juncture is the test of the scholar's true talent and real knowledge. As for the forty characters at the end of the fu, it depends on how to finish the topic. Although it is different from the eight-legged essay themes in later generations, it is also similar to the problem of solving the topic.

Today's "Nine Destiny Fu" is from the "Shangshu" Gao Yao's "Wide and slim, soft and standing, wishful and respectful, chaotic and respectful, disturbed and resolute, straight and gentle, simple and honest, tough and blocked, strong and righteous", and the rhymes used are also from the same article. Therefore, it is naturally worth the effort to solve the whole topic.

Du Shiyi's pondering came to almost the middle of the sun. Yu Feng, who had been looking around, couldn't help but wonder in his heart when he saw that he had not finished writing. However, after wandering around for a long time, he couldn't hold on, so he returned to his seat and sat down happily. When he found that Du Shiyi suddenly started to polish the ink, he looked up at the next officer and said, "Go to Du Shijiulang to see what words and sentences have you written, come back to protect me!"

When the officer left, he looked around at the sparse test takers in the huge test field and couldn't help but sigh softly. This Jinshi exam is the Julong Gate, but even if he really jumped past it, how could it be a smooth road!
