After a while, a man who looked like a storyteller appeared in front.

When everyone saw someone coming, they all came forward to ask questions.

The storyteller motioned for everyone to be quiet.

The crowd was noisy, so he moved a stool and stood on it, shouting: "Quiet!"

The noise quickly disappeared and the scene became quiet.

Then he preached directly on the stool.

The first thing to talk about is registration.

In addition to filling in the detailed information of three generations of their own family, candidates also need guarantees from three parties.

The first party is that three to five candidates guarantee each other. If cheating occurs, several other people will sit together.

Yang Yuanzu and Luo Mingshi were planning to find another person to form a team. Luo Mingshi originally wanted to find Zhang Jiangguan, but was stopped by Yang Yuanzu.

Zhang Jiangguan will be involved in an imperial examination fraud case in the future. Although he does not know which examination it is, whoever teams up with him will be unlucky!

The second party is to find a junior student, that is, a scholar with first-class grades, to vouch for it. As soon as the storyteller finished speaking, several junior students came out and said they could issue a guarantee letter to everyone.

It's just that the guarantee fee costs five taels of silver, and Yang Yuanzu feels that this routine is a bit like a sales pitch.

Luo Sheng on the side was about to pay to sign up, when Yang Yuanzu asked: "Don't you think the guarantee fee is a bit expensive?"

Luo Mingshi thought Pinpin's words made sense, so he and Yang Yuanzu stood still where they were.

This third party is the neighbor's guarantee, which couldn't be easier for Yang Yuanzu.

Secondly, there is the issue of security inspection. Unlike the children's examination, when entering the examination room, you not only need to take off your clothes for inspection, but also need to take a shower and change the clothes provided by the examination room.

This is to prevent some people from writing notes on their bodies and clothing.

Considering that the weather was cooler during the exam, Yang Yuanzu raised his hand to ask a question.

Amidst the noisy questions, the storyteller saw Yang Yuanzu raising his hand, and then gestured for everyone to quiet down, and then asked Yang Yuanzu: "This little friend, do you have any questions?"

Yang Yuanzu asked: "This year's exam is so strict, can we bring other daily necessities and warm clothes in?"

The storyteller replied: "All of these things can be brought in, but they have to go through several inspections. There are many things that need to be inspected in the examination room. If you are lucky, you will get your own things on the same day, and if you are unlucky, you will get your own things the next day." s things.

But don’t worry, the examination room will provide hot water, and if we cannot get our own daily necessities in time, we can also ask the examination room to buy their daily necessities, but the living silver needs to be paid to the examination room in advance. "

At this time, other students asked questions.

"Please ask me what precautions should I take when writing exam papers?"

The storyteller replied: "The handwriting is neat and tidy, as long as the line of sealing is not answered. The line of sealing is what we often call the line of confusion."

Yang Yuanzu guessed that this should be the ancient sealing line.

A broadcast sounded in my mind: Candidates should be careful not to answer questions within the sealing line.

Another question rang out: "How can I just have neat handwriting now? In previous years, weren't the requirements for handwriting very high?"

The storyteller replied: "This year there is a new class of transcription officers. The exam papers you have answered will be excerpted again by the transcription officer and handed over to the marking officer for correction, so the handwriting will be neat."

All the students couldn't help but sigh when they heard this, and some people were excited: "Since ancient times, it has been emphasized that words should be like the person they are. How can we be worthy of high school if we don't have beautiful handwriting!"

"But this does not apply to examination room marking. If one of the marking officers refers to someone they know well and recognizes it through handwriting, and thus selfishly gives high marks, wouldn't it be unfair to everyone?"

"It is precisely because of this that we have table-rotating grading. I think the previous system is better!"

"But there are good and bad handwritings. Good writing may give the copywriters a good impression!"

Everyone expressed their opinions and started discussing.

Yang Yuanzu asked Luo Mingshi: "What is table turning?"

Unexpectedly, Luo Mingshi shook his head in confusion, saying that he didn't know either.

When the examinee next to him saw it, he was surprised and said: "You two don't even know how to turn tables, and you came to take the exam?!"

For a moment, everyone looked at the two of them, just like a bunch of high school seniors taking the college entrance examination looking at elementary school students.

Yang Yuanzu wanted to ask the storyteller again. There were several invigilators in the examination room, but now he was a little embarrassed to speak in front of everyone's eyes.

Luo Mingshi, a fool, said directly: "Then do you know what turning tables means?"

Hearing this, the examinee replied with disdain: "The table transfer is a test paper with several marking officers taking turns to mark it."

So that's it. Yang Yuanzu had an epiphany on his face and found that some of the test operations here were similar to those of later generations.

Everyone's attention was focused here. Yang Yuanzu took the opportunity to ask Mr. Storyteller who the invigilator was and how many people there were.

He had heard of this before, but there would be some small changes every year in the college examination, so he wanted to confirm again, after all, the money should not be wasted.

The examinees looked at them again, but Yang Yuanzu calmly ignored them.

The storyteller replied: "The college examinations are held twice every three years. This year's college examinations will be presided over by the magistrate of Shunxing County. As for the number of invigilators, this depends on the arrangements of the magistrate. It is probably the same as in previous years."

Yang Yuanzu and his two people stayed here for a while, and everyone asked questions basically related to the exam content.

Everyone was making random guesses. You and I kept saying that this was possible and that was possible. There would be no useful information if we stayed any longer. Yang Yuanzu took Luo Mingshi and left.

The two of them saw several classmates from the private school at the entrance of the student assembly, and stepped forward to form a team with them. Little did they know that everyone on the other side had already formed a team.

So the two of them found other people, but they didn't know that these people moved too fast. Either they had found all the people, or they were unwilling to team up with King Juan because they were under too much pressure.

The corner of Yang Yuanzu's mouth twitched and he smiled, and said: "I'm sorry, little carrot head, I didn't expect you to be dragged down by me."

Luo Mingshi replied hesitantly: "How about we disband and I find other teammates?"

Yang Yuanzu looked distressed: "Don't! If you leave, I will be alone. How can you be willing to leave me!"

He had previously disliked Luo Mingshi for being unreliable, but he didn't expect that only Luo Mingshi could save him now.

Luo Mingshi suggested: "How about we ask Brother Zhang to form a team?" After that, he pointed to Zhang Jiangguan, who was alone in the distance.

Yang Yuanzu was silent when he looked at the black hole of the imperial examination in Zhangjiangguan. If he didn't agree, the only little carrot in front of him would fly away, so he nodded sadly.

Fortunately, the protagonist was framed for cheating during the final exams in Changjing.

Yang Yuanzu prays that the cheating plot will never be advanced.
