Great Qin's son-in-law

Chapter 246 Counting the Merry Characters, Look at the Present!

Ji Que in the city.

It has become very lively.

Ji Que, who originally posted the notice, was blocked from it at this moment. There were many soldiers around, all wearing armor and holding blades. In the middle of the guards of these soldiers, there were a hundred desks. At present, no one was sitting on these desks. .

In front of the case table, a high platform has been repaired.

Guo Dan is standing on it.

He glanced down, his eyes couldn't hide his excitement, but he didn't show it too obviously. He was holding a big iron horn in his hand, which was made by Qin Luoheng for sound transmission.

Although it was already evening, many scholars came one after another.

It's almost time to meet people.

Guo Dan picked up the big tin horn.

loudly:
"quiet."

"The grand meeting of scholars will start in two days. There are many scholars who came to Xianyang this time, so Dr. Qin Luoheng decided to attend the meeting in Jique. At that time, he will discuss the establishment of civilization and governance with all the famous and wise men in the world. .”

"Of course"

"There are priorities, and there are high and low levels of knowledge."

"At present, there are no less than a thousand scholars in Xianyang. In order to give enough respect to the world's sages and celebrities, and to better launch academic disputes, we plan to select 100 celebrities from a hundred schools to sit on the day of the event, and other scholars Just stand by and watch."

"The hundred cases in front of me are just for you."

"Choose the best and sit!"

"The selection of these one hundred candidates was not decided by Dr. Qin Luoheng, but by Prime Minister Daqin, Wang Wan, Kui Zhuang, Ting Wei Li Si, and Doctor Yushi Dunwei. Look at the title, not the status, not the family background, and not to mention the fame."

"The selection of celebrities this time only depends on knowledge and talent!"

"As long as you have real talents and learning, no matter whether you are from a famous family or from a poor family, poor or rich, famous or not, anti Qin or respect Qin, even if you are a farmer and craftsman, or a prisoner and dead person, you will be able to do so. Every time is treated equally.”

"As long as you can pass the screening, you will be among the hundred people."

"in short."

"This event is not limited to any origin!"

"It's all about talent and learning!"

"For the next two days, day and night, the Ji Que case is open to you. Everyone can stay inside for up to a quarter of an hour. At that time, there will be ministers who will provide you with pens, ink, paper and inkstones for you to show off your talents. .”

talking.

Then four official officials stepped forward and showed their pens, inks, papers and inkstones one by one.

After the display was completed, Guo Dan asked them to put the things on the case table, then he picked up the pen, wrote on the paper directly, and quickly wrote nine large characters.

Immediately, an attendant stepped forward and displayed the paper in front of the world.

Guo Dan continued:
"Counting the romantic figures, let's look at the present!"

"This is Dr. Qin's high hopes for the event."

"In these two days, each person will receive a piece of paper, and it will be in Jique for a quarter of an hour. During this quarter of an hour, you are allowed to use your talents to the best of your ability. The topics you write are not limited. As long as you can persuade the reviewing officials, you will be free Be one of the hundreds who can be seated."

"You don't have to worry about cheating."

"The review officer this time has already told you."

"It's the prime ministers left and right of the Great Qin Dynasty, Doctor Yushi and Ting Wei. They are high-ranking and powerful, how could they cheat on this matter?"

"Furthermore."

"This review is done differently than in the past."

"All are reviewed for title!"

"You may not understand."

"Because the writing tool this time is not the bamboo slips, but the paper that was demonstrated just now. On one side of the paper, there is a special registration of your name. After collecting a hundred copies of the paper, officials will seal and bind them, and then hand them over to you. To the reviewing officer."

"After the review results come out, they will be taken directly to Ji Que, and the review results will be read out."

"That is to say, the reviewing officials couldn't see your names from the beginning to the end, and the review results only have two ratings, A and B!"

"Rated A, selected."

"Rated B, lost."

"That's why the announcement said that a hundred people will be selected, but in reality there may be less than a hundred people, or there may be more than a hundred people. We can only know when the final results are judged."

"Scholar rated as B, don't be disheartened."

"When the grand meeting is held, mats will be laid around, but there will be no tables, no pens, inks, papers and inkstones, but you can still participate in the discussion. At that time, every few feet of mats, there will be a big one like mine in my hand. Trumpet, you can speak directly like me."

"Bow every time it is prosperous, and you will be honored."

Done.

He bowed to the surrounding scholars.

Then he walked off the high platform, and Shi Shiran left.

It was quiet all around.

Just when everyone was a little bit surprised, Gu went out with a loudspeaker and said:

"Everyone, don't be impatient."

"Guo Shangli has informed the selection situation one by one."

"Everyone can leave now, or you can take advantage of the cool night and take a step ahead of others, write hard and write, and show what you have learned. If you want to be included, you can enter it now, and there will be officials to send it to you at that time." Put pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

Done.

The attendants around opened a passage.

Go straight to the cases inside.

A neatly clothed scholar said, "According to what you said, we can enter it now and write. Is there really no limit to what we can write?"

"No lie." Gu nodded.

"What is the meaning of the seal that the official said?" The scholar said again.

Gu replied: "The seal is actually similar to the seal, both for the sake of secrecy, the seal is packaged with wood chips, and the seal is also made of wood chips, but only the part with the name written on it will be bound with lines. content will not be affected in any way."

"You are right to have doubts."

"After the first batch of scholars have finished writing, there will be officials who will seal and bind it in public. After you have read it once, you will understand what it means."

The scholar looked slightly hesitant.

Finally gritted his teeth and said:

"Never mind."

"It's all here, is there any reason not to try?"

"I took advantage of the night to try the pen, ink, paper and inkstone provided by Qin Ting, and also to see if my talent can be ranked among the hundred celebrities."

"I'm going to be an early bird."

"I'll go in."

"Cai—" The crowd shouted loudly.

The commoner turned around, bowed to everyone, and went straight inside.

With No.1.

Soon other scholars followed.

Not long after, the quota of 100 people was full. Seeing that almost [-] people were seated, Gu turned around and said in a low voice: "Scholars writing, please be quiet, all the scholars outside."

Done.

It's stuck inside.

He took out an hourglass and said loudly: "This is the timekeeping object for this time. When all the fine sand in it flows down, it means that the time has passed a quarter of an hour. You must get up and leave immediately without delay."

"Come here, hold the lamp for the scholars."

"Get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone for each of the scholars."

soon.

Then some official ministers held candles and knelt down to the side of the case table to illuminate these scholars. At the same time, other official ministers sent pens, ink, paper and inkstones to these scholars' case tables.

Solid way:

"Scholars, please leave your name first!"

The scholars who took the seat looked at the paper, and soon saw the word 'name' on the right side, they picked up a pen and wrote their names on it.

"The timer starts!" Gu said indifferently.

At this time.

It was too late for the scholars to marvel at the magnificence of the paper and the delicacy of the pine smoke ink, so they began to sit upright, thought for a while, and then began to write directly.

The rustling sound of pens falling spread all over Ji Que.

The surrounding attendants surrounded Ji Que again.

The scholars outside could only stand on tiptoes and look inside curiously, their eyes full of surprise.

Fusu and Xiao He were also in the crowd.

Looking at the eager crowd gathered like a tide, both of them couldn't help showing a strange look.

Xiao He whispered:
"This Dr. Qin is really extraordinary."

"The requirements for selecting celebrities are also different."

"Choose only talent!"

"All procedures are fair and open, and no fraud is allowed. If celebrities from all over the world really gather in Xianyang, the standard of this event will be surprisingly high."

"I've come to the right place."

Fu Su looked at Xiao He, who was full of hope, and sighed: "I also feel the same way. I have only been away from Xianyang for half a year. I have never heard of what is happening in this grand event. He is really different."

Xiao He was taken aback.

He looked at Fusu and asked in doubt: "Young Master, haven't you seen these before?"

Fu Su shook his head and said: "Mo, I know it is pine smoke ink. The outside world may not know that this pine smoke ink was made by Qin Luoheng, and the iron horn and paper used by Guo Dan are something I have never seen before." seen."

"And the hourglass."

"In the past, Xianyang was actually used to record the time by dripping water."

"These novelty things, if I guess correctly, I'm afraid they all came from this Dr. Qin."

Fusu looked a little disappointed.

On the one hand, he was very pleased with these changes, but on the other hand, he was very jealous of Qin Luoheng's talent. Originally, Qin Luoheng had "resurrected from the dead", and he was already alert, but he never imagined that during the time he left Xianyang, Qin Luoheng made so many things happen again.

This made him a little restless.

Xiao He didn't notice Fusu's strangeness.

He said in surprise:

"This doctor is really talented."

"When we were in the inn earlier, some people said that he is a doctor of medicine. He is capable of fighting dozens of people without defeat, and he also knows some methods to solve crimes. Now he is actually a craftsman. Such a talented person is really rare in the world."

"If you have the chance, you should see it with your own eyes."

Fusu frowned.

At this time.

There was a crackling sound.

A quarter of an hour is up.

All the scholars stood up and left the field with still unsatisfied intentions.

Soon, an attendant came forward and sorted out the papers they used one by one. Then, in front of everyone, covered the place where the names were written with wooden boards, and then drove in a few iron nails to completely fix the boards. Tie the board tightly with a rope.

In the end, glue was pasted on the place where the knot was tied, and a seal was stamped. After completing this whole set of tedious operations, the hundred copies of paper were escorted by the guards to the Prime Minister's Mansion, waiting for the final review.

Solid mouth said:

"Today's test is over, you can leave first."

"Tomorrow at noon, the government will remove the sealing mud, iron nails, wooden boards, etc. in public, and will also announce your ratings in public. If you can't be there at noon, don't worry, someone will post the names of the selected people on the Announcement."

"There is plenty of time."

"You don't have to wait in Ji Que."

"At [-] o'clock tomorrow morning, start the second round of testing on time."

Stand up.

Properly bow to everyone.

see.

The scholars began to leave the field, but their eyes were full of excitement and joy, and they whispered to each other what they felt in their hearts.

a time.

There was a lot of voices around Ji Que.
