Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 500 It is necessary to see

Luo Sanmu was pulled to the end of the team by Jiang Chan, "Don't let the officer scold you if you act naughty."

"Don't worry, the notice says there is no age limit. Our Beishan County Office is a stickler for words and will not blame the child." Jiang Chan patted him on the body, "Just see which side you choose."

"I'll line up here too." Luo Sanmu stood at the end of the registration line for the written test, "And keep an eye on Yun'er."

Jiang Chan thought that Luo Sanmu didn't know as many characters as she did, and he might not even be able to report his name. "I'll just watch here, you should line up over there."

"It's okay." Luo Sanmu stretched his head and looked at the martial arts test registration team. "There are fewer people over there, and the registration speed is fast. If I can't register here, it's the same to go over there. It won't delay the business."

The registration requirement for the written test is to write five words, but of course not everyone has to write five words.

Some people can be seen to be able to write, so they are asked to write two or three characters symbolically. Some people write haltingly and seem to lack confidence, so the person in charge of registration will ask two more questions.

Soon it was Luo Yun's turn and the person in front of her was her friend Zheng Xidong.

Seeing that the visitor was a student from the academy, Cheng Guang asked about more difficult characters, specifically those with more strokes. Seeing that the other party did not need time to think, she just picked up the stick and wrote, and the characters she wrote had no stroke mistakes. He only asked about the third character and then wrote her a test number.

"Keep it. Bring this paper to the county government office on the sixth day of the lunar year to take the exam."

"Yes, thank you, sir!" Zheng Xidong took it with both hands and held it in his hands like a treasure.

She turned around and encouraged Luo Yun, "Don't worry, we have learned the words that the officer asked in class."

Luo Yun nodded, but he was a little nervous. He took Zheng Xidong's hand and said, "Wait for me here."

"I'll be right here with you."

In fact, it was not only Zheng Xidong who accompanied Luo Yun.

When Jiang Chan saw that it was almost Luo Yun's turn, she quietly moved to the front. She was afraid that Luo Yun would become even more anxious if he saw her, so she hid two steps away and did not dare to let Luo Yun see her.

Luo Yun stared at Cheng Guang's mouth carefully, fearing that she couldn't hear clearly what the other person said.

She thought she would be extremely flustered and might even forget all the words she could normally write.

But in fact, when she held the stick, her frightened heart calmed down.

As she wrote more and more words, her heart became calmer and calmer.

"Okay, you passed." After Cheng Guang registered her information, he handed her the serial number and said, "Remember to come to the county government office on the sixth day of the first lunar month to take the exam."

"Thank you, Sir!"

Luo Yun took the serial number and jumped to Zheng Xidong's side, "I passed too! We both passed!"

"Congratulations." Zheng Xidong congratulated her with a smile.

Luo Yun smiled and replied: "Congratulations. It would be great if we could pass it together on the sixth day of the New Year."

As the two of them congratulated each other, Jiang Chan also returned to Luo Sanmu and said happily, "What did I say! Yun'er and Xidong have both signed up."

"Really?" Luo Sanmu breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Chan joked, "You and Shitou are the only ones in our family who haven't signed up yet, so you better pay attention!"

Hearing this, Luo Sanmu became nervous, "Should I just queue up next door? Forget it, I'm already queued up here, let's give it a try!"

Thinking about the sixth grade exam, Luo Yun was not happy for long, "I wonder what questions will be on the written test."

Zheng Xidong thought, "Maybe Mr. Cai knows. Let's go ask him."

"Okay!" Luo Yun noticed her parents at the back of the team, "How about we wait for my dad?"

"Okay, if your father has also signed up, we can all go and ask together."

Luo Yun grabbed Zheng Xidong and said, "Let's go to my parents." The two of them accompanied Luo Sanmu in the queue, regardless of whether Luo Sanmu was willing to have them accompany him or not.

Finally it was Luo Sanmu's turn.

Unlike Luo Yun, Luo Sanmu became nervous when he picked up the stick and started writing.

The words that Cheng Guang asked about were not ones he used very often in daily life. He scratched his head and was able to write down three of them, but he couldn't remember the fourth one no matter how hard he tried.

"Sanmu." Cheng Guang sighed, "Why are you in this line? I can't give you a break, you should sign up next door."

Luo Sanmu had no choice but to put down his stick and leave the team.

"Dad." Luo Yun said, "We will accompany you to register before leaving."

"No, no, you guys still have to go find Mr. Cai, right? Go ahead, I'll just register over there, don't wait for me."

Jiang Chan also said, "Yes, you have to get to the teacher's house early, otherwise he will have lunch. Remember to ask clearly what the questions are, and tell me when you get home."

Luo Yun looked at Zheng Xidong.

"Then let's go to Mr. Cai's house first." Zheng Xidong said.

"Okay." After saying goodbye to her parents, Luo Yun took Zheng Xidong's hand and ran towards Cai Rong's house.

After the new street was built, Meng Changqing arranged accommodation for all the gentlemen working in the school next to the new school.

Now that the two children wanted to find Cai Rong, they naturally ran towards the school.

The school, which should have been empty, actually had quite a few people in it today. Upon closer inspection, Mr. Cai was also there.

Zheng Xidong said: "Let's go in and take a look."

"it is good."

As soon as I entered the classroom, I heard my classmates surrounding Mr. Cai talking about the government examination.

"Sir, what you mean is that if you want to take the imperial examination in the future, it's best not to take the examination at the government office?"

Luo Yun looked at Zheng Xidong in confusion and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean? Is there any harm in taking the government examination?"

"That's not what I meant." Cai Rong said, "There's nothing wrong with taking the exam at the government office, but it's best not to work at the county government office."

A student beside Cai Rong clapped his hands and said, "Yes, I heard from a former teacher that people who work in the county government cannot take the imperial examination."

"Don't think too far ahead. Taking the exam is one thing, and serving in the county government is another." Cai Rong said, "If there are any of you who are determined to take the exam and become an official, just don't take the job.

You have been studying in school for so long, but apart from the test questions I set for you, you have never done any questions set by others.

The topic of this county government examination was set by Lord Qi. Lord Qi is a former imperial examiner, so you really need to see the questions he sets."

Some students worry, "If we pass the exam but don't take up the position, wouldn't that be playing tricks on the government?"

"Don't worry about it. I'll find a way." Cai Rong stroked his beard, "I'll go find Lord Meng and ask him to give you the test questions after the written test."

"Thank you sir."

Cai Rong waved his hand, "Okay, it's a rare holiday, don't gather here, go home."

"Sir!" Zheng Xidong pulled Luo Yun into the crowd, "We would like to ask you, sir, what will the questions for the county government's written test be like? Are they very different from the questions you asked?"

Cai Rong looked at the two people who squeezed in front of him and guessed, "You two should go and sign up."

"Yes."

"Well, you are brave." Cai Rong nodded at them. "As for what the questions will be like, I don't know. But you have done a good job in your studies, so you can rest assured to try."
