The Transmigrated Li Jin's Daily Farming Life

This answer sheet was naturally Li Jin's.

The three main features of 'Guange style' calligraphy are 'black, square and light'.

The direct translation of the word Wu means black, as the saying goes, "the ink is light and hurts the spirit", and the ink is dark, and the energy is full.

But when Li Jin traveled here, he didn't learn the Guange style systematically. His current calligraphy was practiced by himself for many years. Therefore, it is very similar to the 'Guange style', but it is also slightly different.

Pang Lao paid attention to "ink is divided into five colors" in writing. The first point he taught Li Jin was that the thickness, dryness and wetness of calligraphy ink had to be adjusted with the change of fonts.

Therefore, when Li Jin wrote "Guange style", he did not blindly seek "wu".

Because if every stroke of the handwriting is very black, it will appear boring and have no sense of hierarchy.

It is precisely because Li Jin has practiced a lot that he has a good grasp of the levels.Open his answer sheet and take a look, you will be deeply shocked.

And the examiner of the Hanlin Academy who was in charge of transcribing also realized that he had made a slip of the tongue after he finished speaking. He was only in charge of transcribing and had no right to mark the papers.

Contrary to him, before the ranking of all the answer papers is roughly determined, the chief examiners who mark the papers cannot casually flip through the candidates' answer papers.

There are only so many examiners in the inner curtain, the junior examiners of the Hanlin Academy copy, and the chief examiners sit on the top and drink tea to supervise them.

As soon as he spoke, the examiner's eyes immediately fell on him.

"Quiet, no noise."

"The lower official knows his mistake."

As for the examiners, as long as they don't cheat, the guards are very lenient.If candidates make noise in the number room, they will definitely pull them out directly and put them in the cell first.

As for the examiners, the guards just changed the positions of several examiners who were responsible for transcribing, so that the answer sheets they were responsible for transcribing were different, avoiding cheating.

Anyway, after they have finished copying, the examiner will check whether the results of their copying correspond to the candidates' answer sheets one by one. They are serious, rigorous and selfless.

For all inner curtain examiners, they cannot step out of the inner curtain during the nine days of the exam and the 20 days of grading papers.

In addition to copying and grading papers, each examiner eats, drinks, and scatter in his own room every day.

Except for the examiners, the others even had to ask the guards to accommodate them even to take a hot bath, which was not much better than the examinees.

This is also to prevent the examiner from contacting the outside world and tampering with the marking after receiving the news.

As for the guards, regardless of their low status, the emperor issued an order that if a cheating examiner could be caught, the guards could be promoted to three ranks.And if they help the examiner to cheat, forty boards and exile are waiting for them.

Under the intertwined rules of heavy rewards and heavy punishments, the final line of fairness is strictly maintained for the imperial examinations of this dynasty.

After all, there is already a huge gap in birth, and countless children from poor families take the imperial examination to stand out. If there is not even a trace of fairness in the imperial examination, how can this court be convincing.

The examiners who were transcribing changed positions, and those who were called up had no choice but to do so even if they were unhappy in every way.

You must know that there is no brazier at the feet of the people who are responsible for copying. After all, there are answer sheets around them. If they are burned, no one can bear the responsibility.

Therefore, they took great pains to warm their stools, and now they have to move their nests, and strange things will happen if they are willing.

Zhou Guangzhen is a Hanlin who was "involved" and changed to a Hanlin.

As an examiner, he can wear a jacket, but for the convenience of copying, he can't wear it too thick.

There was no brazier at his feet, and the cold was inevitable. He reluctantly sat in the seat of the Hanlin who had spoken just now, took another blank answer sheet, dipped the brush with ink, and began to take charge of copying.

When Zhou Guangzhen opened Li Jin's answer sheet, he was also surprised to see the fonts with similar size, square shape and smooth and round strokes.

If it wasn't for the coldness in the process of 'moving the nest', he might have shouted 'I have never seen such a beautiful word'!

Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help but look at every word carefully. He felt that every word was neat and smooth, well-written, very regular, and looked pleasing to the eye.

He thought, "Looking good is good-looking, but I can't see the character."

To see the style of brush calligraphy, the most obvious is the edge of the brush.For example, 'tick', 'point' and 'skimming', when writing, show the arrogance of the writer by closing the pen.

But Li Jin's handwriting is very regular in these aspects, and people can't help but admire how neat and beautiful it is.

That's why Zhou Guangzhen felt the emotion above.

But when he started to copy, he found that the handwriting was not without style, every vertical and every horizontal line was extremely correct, and the thickness of the handwriting was also suitable for dry and wet.

Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help knocking himself on the head, and laughed in his heart: "This is not a character, the whole article is the character of the person who answered the paper!"

That's why he was shocked when he saw it.

The style of Guange is superior to regular script, but it cannot escape the shadow of regular script. Regular script always pays attention to orderliness and orderliness.

As Hanlin, they have seen many neat answer sheets and calligraphy, and they couldn't help admiring just now, not only because of the neat handwriting, but also because they couldn't find anything wrong.

——It turns out that the person answering the paper has already reached a state of perfection in the use of calligraphy.

Zhou Guangzhen wanted to copy slowly, savoring this calligraphy work carefully... No, this answer sheet, but every Hanlin has a certain workload, and he still has to finish copying all the answer sheets within the specified time.

Therefore, he could only copy quickly.

Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help feeling a little regretful in his heart. He could see such good characters in his life, but he didn't have time to savor them carefully.

What a pity in life.

But when he continued to transcribe, Zhou Guangzhen found that not only the writing of this article was good, but also the content was progressive and interlocking.

The ideas discussed by the respondents are novel and not beyond reality. If you think about it carefully, the possibility of its realization is very high.

Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help admiring it. If he wasn't afraid of losing his black hat, he really wanted to break the seal and see who wrote this answer sheet.

Such talent is rare in life.

It's a pity that Zhou Guangzhen was cowardly, he didn't dare to do this.

He could only silently finish copying, then reluctantly put this answer sheet on the stack after copying, and then was taken away by the guards.

Zhou Guangzhen is able to become Hanlin and one of the examiners of this examination. She is very knowledgeable, especially in willow style.

He was a Jinshi who was born in the second class six years ago, and he was the youngest among all the Jinshi. Even the champion of the same year, he had never admired him so much.

Now, I admire this Jurenlai who has never been masked.

Zhou Guangzhen thought that if the chief examiner of the Ministry of Rites thought the same as him, then there was an 80.00% chance that this person would become the Huiyuan, and he would know who this person was.

Thinking of this, Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help but be very grateful to the one who spoke up before, he was willing to move now, otherwise, how could he have the opportunity to transcribe such an answer sheet.

And the Hanlin who spoke up before raised his head and caught a glimpse of the excitement and admiration in Zhou Guangzhen's eyes, he was so regretful that his guts were green.

Why can't he calm down a bit!

The examiners worked overtime for half the night, and Li Jin got up in the early Yinshi, ready to take the second exam.

With the experience of the first time, Li Jin was a little more accepting of taking a bath to check his body again.

The second session mainly examines policy questions. Unlike the first session of writing articles, the policy questions are translated into short-answer questions.

The second session is divided into five policy questions, each of which is composed of several small questions, which can be roughly divided into exegesis, water conservancy, military system, national strategy and so on.

The translation of exegesis into vernacular is noun interpretation, which aims to explain the meaning, phonology, grammar, rhetoric, etc., and the basic skills of the students are tested.

Exegesis questions do not account for a large proportion of the entire test, because most people can write very accurately.

But if the chain is lost in this match, it will affect the ranking evaluation of the entire test.

Water conservancy, military system, etc. are quite different from previous exams. Since Wan Yun took the exam last year, the exam questions are not just "what methods need to be used to improve the water conservancy system", but math questions have been added to it.

For example, Wan Yun told Li Jin that when he would take the test, he directly tested 'how many stones and soil are needed to control the water to prevent floods'.

This requires students to have a good understanding of the annual rainfall and the height of the river bed before they can answer.

After Li Jin finished writing the exegetical questions, he saw the water conservancy calculation question, and he was already prepared and began to make a draft calculation.

After a while, the man next door seemed to have done the same thing, and Li Jin even heard him yell, "It's over."

The recent topics have indeed become more and more tricky, but they have also become more practical, so that those who can only flatter people no longer have the opportunity to opportunistically.

The third exam is Shi Ce. At the end of the answer sheet, there are fu and poems. Li Jin doesn't study much in poetry.

The whole nine days of Chunwei ended with Li Jin finishing his poems.

He walked to the door of the house, and the little bun slammed into his arms like a small cannonball. Li Jin handed the book basket to Xiaocha, and then hugged the little bun.

Baozi grabbed Li Jin's ears with his hands, but his hands were cold.

He directly hugged his father's neck with his whole body, and rubbed his little head against his father, "The buns keep Daddy warm."

The first two times when Li Jin came back, he was very tired and had to prepare for the next day's exam, so Qin Muwen didn't let the buns pester his father.

Little Baozi felt that he was incompetent for this small stove.

Li Jin carried him back to the house, Qin Muwen came in with ginger soup, "to drive away the cold."

Li Jin was hit by the 'sugar-coated bullets' of the two, and they rubbed their heads one by one.

In fact, Qin Muwen originally wanted to hire someone to give Li Jin a cloak, so that Li Jin could put it on directly after the exam.

But this time there were more than 4000 candidates, and countless people outside the examination room were waiting to give the cloak to their young master, and they often couldn't find anyone.

If there is time to find someone, Li Jin can walk back.

Qin Muwen thought about it again, and it was the same reason.

Therefore, he stayed at home to cook ginger soup for Li Jin.

After the general examination is over, the results will be released in mid-March, and this year's Xinke Gongyuan (juren who passed the general examination) can basically participate in the palace examination.

Only after the imperial examination can one be called a Jinshi.

In Li Jin's dynasty, as long as he participated in the palace examination, unless Gong Yuan made a huge mistake, such as signing up to replace him, his Majesty would usually bestow him with the title of Jinshi.

It’s just that Jinshi is divided into three top grades, three people in the first grade are called Jinshi Jidi; about 40 to [-] people in the second grade are called Jinshi origin;

After the final exam, Li Jin felt a lot more relaxed. He felt that he was a little pessimistic about the rankings.

Like now, I go to the Ministry of Industry to study every day, and answer people's questions, and I will gain something new every day.

The next day, the colleagues from the Ministry of Industry were all surprised when they saw Li Jin appear.

"Sir, why don't you take a few more days off?"

"Look at this wink, he hasn't brought a stool yet."

"I'll pour tea."

Mr. Yuanwailang of the Qingshui Metropolitan Government Department was discussing something with Zhu Shan. Seeing this scene, they just smiled and did not stop them.

Yuan Wai Lang knew how arrogant the officials of the Ministry of Industry were outside, and Li Jin was really capable, and he didn't hide his knowledge in order to be so respected by others.

Zhu Shan looked at his friend and said with a smile, "You are not treated like this."

Yuanwailang said with emotion: "In a few years, I might have to call him an adult."

Apart from Wan Yun, Li Jin never told anyone else that he didn't plan to become an official. After all, what would His Majesty think when word got out?

Although Li Jin doesn't care about reputation, he can't risk his future to death.

He wants to do practical things, but the back and forth in the officialdom is not suitable for him.

Li Jin had a happy life in Dushui Qingli, while Hanlin Zhou Guangzhen was looking forward to copying Li Jin's answer sheet.

It's a pity that things backfired, and when the papers were assigned to him, no one could write as well as Li Jin.

At this time, part of the answer sheet had been copied, and the examiners who marked the paper began to comment on each answer sheet.
