However, there were thousands of examinees after all, and the tables and chairs in the examination room were all pieced together, and it was obvious at first glance that they were "old items" that had been passed down for who knows how many generations.
Actually, this is all good.
In some remote and impoverished counties, students are required to bring their own benches, tables, and answer sheets. There are no examination rooms, and the examinations are held outdoors.
As recorded in "The Scholars", Fan Jin "carried a table and a stool" to take the imperial examination.
If it were windy and rainy, I would really collapse on the spot.
Cui Xian followed Ye Huaifeng's instructions and found eight rows and nine columns.
There is plenty of light here and it is far away from the toilet. The roof is tightly covered, which not only blocks direct sunlight, but also protects it from wind and rain.
It's really easy to get things done when you have someone in the government office.
Because the first and most crucial county examination only lasts for one day.
The exam starts during the day and ends in the evening.
Another stricter rule is that no lights are allowed.
So when the exam was at its end, the benefits of sufficient light were immediately apparent.
Cui Xian came in early and could only wait in his seat.
There are answer sheets and draft papers on the desk, which is also a rule.
The draft paper is jute paper, and the county government will recycle it after the exam.
The answer sheet was the official test paper with red vertical lines, 10 lines and 20 characters per page, and the county government's red seal was stamped at the beginning of the paper.
The process of checking and entering is really a waste of time.
Cui Xian and the others stared blankly, and even felt a little hungry, so they simply opened the lunch box and started eating the cakes.
A group of candidates around looked over at him sideways, thinking: The little prodigy must be so calm and composed, because he knows he is just going through the motions.
So, they began to comfort themselves: Don’t be afraid, at least we have the little prodigy to help us!
Cui Xian doesn't care what others think.
He was full, and the search and entry was finally over.
It was already bright outside.
Ye Huaifeng ordered the officers to lock the door.
clang!
A clerk struck the gong at the front of the examination room, signaling the start of the exam.
At the front of the examination room.
Under the nervous gaze of countless candidates, the county magistrate picked up the pen and wrote down the examination questions for the first round of the county examination on the title card.
Those were two questions on contemporary Chinese prose.
Question 1: King Wu continued the legacy of King Tai, King Ji, and King Wen.
Question 2: Today’s Heaven.
When seeing these two questions, countless candidates gasped.
Some people even felt dizzy and cursed in their hearts.
The first sword you strike ashore is to kill those who come later, right?
I have been caught in the rain, so I want to tear off other people's umbrellas.
Will you be able to set good questions?
I just want to ask you if you can set good questions!
Ye Huaifeng looked innocent as he was stared at fiercely by many examinees.
