Chapter 82 Scientific Examination

There are huge crowds of people outside the examination room, and it is very lively.

Yin Ling walked over and saw that the members of the Sheng family had arrived and were talking in front of Sheng Changbai and Sheng Changfeng.

Sheng Rulan saw Yin Ling in the crowd at a glance.

It's not that she has sharp eyes, but that she has been looking for Yin Ling since she came here.

Until he saw that handsome and tall figure coming from a distance, he couldn't help but smile sweetly.

Seeing that Yin Ling was also looking up, Ru Lan couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement, but when she thought of the things she talked about with her mother in the room a few days ago, she felt a little lost again.

Not long after, Yin Ling walked over and came forward to salute: "Sheng Gong, eldest lady, brother Changbai..."

He greeted all the people present.

"Cousin, I also made a pair of these knee pads for you." Ming Lan took out a pair of knee pads with a smile, and winked at Yin Ling.

Yin Ling looked from the corner of her eye, and saw Ru Lan lowered her head slightly, but raised her eyes quietly to look at him.

He shook his head with a secret smile, held the knee pads and said to Ming Lan, "Thank you cousin, I will wear these knee pads well."

As he spoke, he glanced at Ru Lan without showing any trace.

This glance almost melted Ru Lan's heart.

The few people didn't notice the small movements between the three of them, but Chang Bai said with a smile: "Your brother is going here, I think he is going to jump into the dragon's gate and go all over the world."

"Brother Changbai has been praised too much. I don't know enough to ask myself, so I will do my best and obey the destiny." Yin Ling said with a slight smile.

When Sheng Changbai heard this, he shook his head and smiled, "Don't underestimate yourself, brother Zhuang. Scholars say that you are talented and hardworking. It is not difficult to be on the list for your writing and ink. If you are not knowledgeable enough, how can we Isn't it all hopeless?"

The lady Wang who was at the side heard this and gave her son a secret look. How can anyone grow others' ambitions and destroy their own prestige?
"Brother Changbai is too modest. With Brother Changbai's knowledge, I can conclude that this time Brother Changbai will definitely get a gold medal in high school." Yin Lin smiled lightly and spoke very forcefully.

Those words shocked everyone in the Sheng family.

Words are good words, but no one will say them to death. What you say seems to be able to predict the future.

Sheng Changfeng's face was not very good-looking, because Yin Ling said that he was not the person on the "high school gold list".

Yin Ling ignored him, and saw that everyone was silent, so he stopped talking, and took the opportunity to say: "It's almost time, I will enter the venue first, and I will visit after the exam is over."

After finishing speaking, Yin Ling's gaze stayed in Ru Lan's pupils for a moment, then he carried the bookcase and walked into the examination room without looking back.

When the four eyes meet, Xinghai and tenderness blend together, Ru Lan looks at Yin Ling's back, and her heart gradually sinks again.

"Brother Ling, come on."

She secretly encouraged Yin Lin in her heart, but it seemed to be encouraging herself.

……

Yin Ling cooperated with the examiner to check from inside to outside, from top to bottom, and then received the test ticket and was released into the examination room.

Going further, you will see rows of small compartments, not open, but blocked by a door. Yin Ling handed over the test paper to a man in official robes, and after his guidance, he found himself seat.

During the three days of the provincial exam, you have to eat and drink in your own cubicle. Someone will come to clean up the dirt regularly, and you don’t care about the food.

Yin Lin's physique is extraordinary, and he can survive without food or drink for three days, but he still brought dry food, shortbread, and three bamboo tubes of water.

Not long after, the exam papers were handed out to him.

It is said to be an examination paper, but it is actually a small notebook for each person, which records the questions of this imperial examination.

The subjects of Mingjing in the early Northern Song Dynasty were roughly the same. Although the topics were different, the scope was the same.

First, there is one poem, one fu, and one each, then there are five policy questions, and then there are ten posts of "The Analects of Confucius", called "Tie Jing", and then there are "Spring and Autumn" or "Book of Rites", as well as ink Ten articles of justice.

Tie Jing and Mo Yi, except for some understanding of the annotations, are almost all memorized by rote. After all, there are only a few mainstream ones in the classics. For Yin Ling, this is completely free.

Just pick up the pen and dye the ink, and start writing.

Only two quarters of an hour later, Yin Lin finished answering both the Tie Jing and Mo Yi questions.

Then there are poems and fus. The themes of the two are not limited, but there are requirements. The poems in the test post are set to be five-character and eight-rhyme, and this dynasty must have historical evidence. At the same time, this topic uses "you" as the rhyme.

After thinking about it for a while, Yin Ling decided to be a copy of the text, and silently uttered a song "Send Ziyan Mr. Zhang to the Northern Expedition" written by Yue Fei, who has not yet been born.

Command the wind to be fast, and the sound of the sky moves the north.

Drive across the river and Luo, and go straight to Yanyou.

The blood of the horse bunting family, the head of the Khan with the flag curling up.

Return to report to the Lord and restore the old China.

……

That afternoon, when dusk was approaching, Yin Ling had basically answered all the questions.

There is nothing to say about poems and fus. The unity of the traversers is not in vain. As long as they are used in the right place and echo the requirements of the topic, they will not be ignored by the examiner.

For the two questions of Tie Jing and Mo Yi, Yin Ling even brought his own plug-in. After reading the book for three years, he read all the miscellaneous books and classics, and it would be no problem to ask a hundred more questions like this.

In fact, these few questions, candidates with a little strength will not be able to write poorly, the key is still on the two big questions of policy questions and policy theory.

This is the essence left by the Northern Song Dynasty after optimizing the imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty, which can make people with insight and ability stand out.

But these questions are relatively open, and indeed many people have been selected. It is not clear whether Yin Ling is to be judged by the examiner's likes and dislikes, or by the emperor's thoughts.

For example, Yin Ling just finished answering a question not long ago.

[Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, unified the culture and rites, and the military front was criss-crossed. 】

Yin Ling looked at this topic and combined it with the current era, he knew it in his heart.

This question should be answered with remarks such as "Although a country is large, it will perish if it is warlike", but some people can't guess the thoughts of the contemporary emperor and the likes and dislikes of the examiner, so they answer "Qin The emperor was cruel", "the concubine and concubine are irrespective of age", and other answers were immediately brushed down.

The last big question, policy theory.

Yin Ling didn't write for the time being, this is more critical, and it will take a long time, he plans to sleep all night and answer tomorrow when he is refreshed.

Day two.

Compared with other candidates who were struggling to write and toss and turn, Yin Ling had a full sleep. After waking up, he ate some crispy biscuits and drank some water.

Day three.

Yin Ling slept all day.

To be precise, it should be a day and a half.

Seeing him like this, the officials who came and went to inspect him all sighed and shook their heads, thinking that he was about to give up.

Yin Ling didn't care, and slept until the bell rang on the third day before waking up.

After the inspection officials collected all the test papers, the examination room was closed and opened.

Yin Ling yawned a lot and walked out with the flow of people. Now he just wants to go home and get a good sleep.

There was no bed in the examination room, and it was uncomfortable to sleep at all.
