[Red House] Ban'er's Road to Imperial Examination

Wang Yue seriously read out his answer word by word in public. Although he was very confident on the surface, he was still sweating for himself in his heart.

He had seen this topic before in his previous life. Wang Yue was born in a scholarly family in his previous life. His grandfather was a well-known calligrapher in China. Wang Yue learned painting from his grandfather since he was a child.

Wang Yue was naughty when he was a child, and he couldn’t sit down and practice painting with peace of mind. In order to sharpen his temper, his grandfather threw him a bunch of ancient books for him to recite. Among them were a few selected articles from the imperial examinations of the Qing Dynasty. , or a manuscript, which is said to have been left by the ancestors of their family.

After time travel, Wang Yue discovered that he had a golden finger, that is, his memory suddenly became very good. He could remember all the books he had read clearly, and those few books he had memorized casually in his childhood were also very good. within his memory.

After planning to take the imperial examination, these books became very important materials for him. He once revised the articles in them and turned them into his own style, so as to avoid outsiders from suspecting him of cheating. But even this cannot conceal the excellence of these articles.

Unexpectedly, the plan for a rainy day can really work, and he can really make him encounter the original problem.

After hearing the title given by the magistrate, Wang Yue's previously edited article immediately popped up in Wang Yue's mind. After hesitating for a while, he decided to use this article.

Although this will inevitably give him some limelight, and even offend some people, it is still necessary to get this limelight in order to make the road to the imperial examination go more smoothly in the future.

In fact, this is what Wang Yue made up his mind after inquiring about the current imperial examination situation with the master of the private school.Nowadays, there is a trend in the examination room that examiners like to admit famous candidates.

For example, when it comes to the government examination, the examiner will definitely admit the top few in the county examination, and when it comes to the hospital examination, the examiner will definitely admit the top few in the government examination, and so on. You can pass the exam for sure.

He is young now, and his admission is very easy to be suspected by others. It is inevitable that those who did not pass the exam will speak harshly. The examiner may also want to suppress him out of an inexplicable love for talent. Wang Yue is not willing to spend more time in the imperial examination. waste time.

It's not that Wang Yue is eager to step into the officialdom. He himself was influenced by his family in his previous life, so he doesn't really like being an official. However, in the feudal era, the classes were clearly defined. If there was no official protection, he just wanted to start a small business. It is difficult to make a fortune.

Moreover, his father has high hopes for him and loves him in every possible way. Compared with his father who was away all the year round in the previous life, the father and son did not see each other often throughout the year, and the relationship was indifferent. In this life, the father really loved him, and it could even be said that Over spoiled.

Faced with the high expectations of his father and the increasingly poor situation at home, Wang Yue could not ignore the expectations of his relatives and the needs of the family because of his own preferences.

However, this does not mean that Wang Yue must go against his inner wishes. He has already planned to pass the imperial examination early, then enter the Imperial Academy, and become a bachelor in the Imperial Academy. He is free to drink tea and study books. , and show off your painting skills in due course.

Although Wang Yue dare not say that his painting skills can surpass these ancient masters, his style is indeed relatively new in comparison.

Wang Yue’s grandfather studied with masters of traditional Chinese painting when he was young, and when he was young, he went abroad to study abroad and learned Western painting skills. In his later years, he uniquely blended Chinese and Western painting styles and formed a school of his own. This is why he was called There is a reason why people are called masters of painting.

Wang Yue dare not say that her painting skills have inherited all of her grandfather's, but at least half of them are. In this strange dynasty, not to mention being able to mix with everyone, at least she can be well-known.

As the four arts of a gentleman, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting were more sought after among ancient scholars, and a well-known painter had a relatively high status in ancient times.

With fame, even if he is a small official, as long as he doesn't risk his life to intervene in some troublesome things, he can still live a relatively healthy life in the officialdom.

What's more, if he ran out of money, he could still earn some money for painting for others, which was a relatively promising career no matter how you looked at it.

Having made his own plan early on, Wang Yue naturally wanted to work hard to achieve his goal. It was also within his plan to show off in the examination room this time. After all, he won the top case this time, and the government and hospital examinations must be easy to pass.

Although I didn't expect to meet the original question by such a coincidence, in general, the plan was smooth.

When he takes the provincial examination in a few years, as a child prodigy who has been selected as a scholar early, his fame will still bring convenience to his examination.

Moreover, those outsiders saw that he was already so promising at such a young age, and they would not bully his family at will. This can be regarded as bringing a talisman to the family in advance.

"Okay, okay! I thought you were too young and unstable, and you just had a competitive heart because you did so well in the previous two exams, but I didn't expect you to have a plan! Based on your today's article Articles are enough even to go to the Juren examination, let alone the county examination!"

"Your Excellency is absurd, the students are just a little talented, but in terms of a solid foundation, they are still not as good as your brothers, the students still have to learn!"

"Very good, no pride. You are still young and you should study modestly. They were earlier than you in learning. They should be your senior brothers on the way to school. Didn't the saint say that threesomes must have my teacher? You should take good care of these people." Brothers communicate with each other, learn their strengths and avoid their own weaknesses, this is the long-term way."

"Thank you for your teaching, my lord!" Wang Yue immediately bowed deeply after hearing these words. These words sound like nonsense, and maybe many people are tired of hearing them, but they are all admonitions from her elders, the county magistrate My lord has no relatives or reasons with him, so he really valued him for being able to say these words to him, and Wang Yue naturally wanted to thank him.

The county magistrate smiled more and more satisfied. He didn't know whether Wang Yue's gratitude was sincere, but being able to show this attitude showed that he was not a fool. Such a talent could go far, and maybe in ten years or so they Being able to be an official in the same dynasty, he can be regarded as his teacher, which is also a connection.

The county magistrate originally planned to praise Wang Yue a few words to praise him and build momentum for him, but Wang Yue has already performed well enough just now, so there is no need for him to say anything more, otherwise it will be superfluous.

So Liu Zixuan just warned him a few more words, and then asked him to step down and put another candidate forward to continue the exam.

"Ban'er, you did a good job! You may be the first name in the county test this time." Jun Bowen wanted to say that the first name in the county test must belong to his junior brother, but after all, it was in the public eye. If he really said that, he would bring hatred to his little brother, but even though he knew that what he said was inappropriate, but he was still young, Jun Bowen couldn't help but leaned close to Wang Yue and said in a low voice: "When the results come out, you can't help it. You have to treat me!"

"Senior brother said this, I answered well this time only because I happened to encounter a question that suits my temperament. In the examination room, seven points for strength and three points for luck, my luck this time is naturally a good answer, wait a minute My luck is bad this time, brother, please remember to comfort me when the time comes!"

Candidates who were a little resentful when they heard Jun Bowen's words immediately felt a lot better after hearing Wang Yue's words. Those who could persist until the fourth round were all strong, so everyone was a little unconvinced. They admitted that Wang Yue was indeed Yes, they answered very well. They also met the papers of the first three rounds. Wang Yue's strength is indeed very strong. Wang Yue said on the spot that he would definitely get No.1, as if the other candidates did not exist.

What Wang Yue said was to save their face. It wasn't that they were inferior to Wang Yue in strength, but it was just that they were unlucky and didn't encounter problems that suited their temperament.

Although they didn't believe it in their hearts, it was enough to fool outsiders.

At noon, the county magistrate stopped for a while and gave everyone half an hour to eat, and then went on to the exam. It was not until the evening that all the candidates finished answering the questions, and then everyone quit one by one, and only waited for the exam again. After two days, you will be able to make the list.

This time it is no longer the ranking of a single exam, but the overall ranking of this county exam. The top [-] are Lin students, who receive six buckets of rice every month, and four taels of silver every year. They are of high status. There is also money and food, which is naturally the goal that everyone wants to fight for.

After the linsheng is the Zengsheng, whose status is not as good as that of the linsheng, and there is no money or food to receive, so it is relatively common.

After hyperplasia is epiphysis, which has the lowest status. Basically, those who are eligible to take the exam are considered epiphytes.

After the list is released, you can prepare for the government exam in April.

Although Wang Yue knew that he would definitely be able to pass with his grades, whether he could get the case was still a matter of opinion, so he was a little nervous even though he was always calm. After all, this was his first exam after time travel.
