Since there were only more than 300 people left in the fourth exam, the chances of meeting acquaintances were a little higher at this time.
As soon as Li Jin and Chen Xiran went out, they bumped into Huang Yiling and the others.
When Huang Yiling saw the two of them, he immediately came up to say hello: "Thanks to the help of Ah Jin and Brother Chen, we didn't miss the prefect's book."
"polite."
Huang Yiling asked how many people lived in which inn, and heard that they lived in an inn 200 meters away, and said with regret: "The three of us arrived earlier, and we lived in the inn diagonally opposite the county government office. I wanted to ask you to review my homework together, but later found that there were too many candidates, and I couldn't find anyone at all."
Chen Xiran said: "That's right, Mr. Song said that at the time they participated in the county examination, there were only a hundred people at most."
Xu Zifan participated in a county examination before, and has studied it.
"There are many benefits. As far as I know, the number of people who pass the county test is about one-tenth of the number of people who take the test. We should have 50 people pass this year."
This is thanks to those young people who came to 'experience the atmosphere of the examination room', otherwise the number of people who passed would have to drop further.
It's getting late, and it's not easy for the few people to chat, so we can only agree to go to the brothel for a drink together after the last exam tomorrow.
But Li Jin did not agree with this.
Even though he has an easy-going personality and can quickly get along with his classmates, he also has his own principles to stick to.
However, brothels in ancient times were different from brothels. Brothels were divided into grades, and the lowest grade was naturally called a brothel, and most of the women inside sold their bodies.
The Piaoxiang Garden in the town is of this grade.
Those who raise a level a bit, divide the girls in the building into two groups, a few top-notch girls are not selling themselves, but if the price is high, they will naturally follow the customers.
Going further up, the talents of the brothel girls are very brilliant.
Previously, Liu Rushi, the head of the Qinhuai Eight Talents, was as talented as a man, but it was a pity that he was reduced to a brothel, met with unkind people, and finally died of hatred.
The brothels in the county town probably divide the girls into two categories, one is for prostitution, and the other is for performing arts but not for prostitution.
Li Jin thought, no matter what, the brothel is a place for literati to have fun. He has a husband and children, so naturally he doesn't plan to go in.
Regardless of what his classmates think of him, whether it's pedantic or rigid, Li Jin is determined not to go to the brothel.
Because if you go to this kind of place for the first time, next time someone invites you, you will have no position to refuse.
If after entering, he drank too much wine and did other things...
Li Jin thought, although he firmly believed that he would not do anything to betray the boy, but instead of testing his willpower again and again in the future, it would be better to eliminate these 'possibilities' one by one as soon as possible.
Here in Li Jin, principle is always more important than face.
Chen Xiran and Li Jin already knew him very well.
He said directly: "Ajin, don't you plan to go to the brothel tomorrow? It's a brothel in the county town, and the girls there must be more beautiful than the one in Piaoxiangyuan."
The corners of Li Jin's lips curled up, and he said, "So what if the girl is beautiful? I can only pretend to be one person in my heart. Xi Ran, apologize to Yi Ling and them tomorrow on my behalf."
The balance in Chen Xiran's heart began to waver.
On the one hand, he has longed for brothels for a long time, but he was always under the control of his father before, so he could only enjoy his mouth.
On the other hand, it was because he had finally finished the county exam this time, and he was invited by a friend, so he really wanted to half-pull and accept.
But if Li Jin doesn't go, if his father hears about his cheating in the county, his father will definitely ask him, "Is this what you said all the classmates have gone?" ', at that time he had no way to defend himself, and he probably had to take care of his family law!
Chen Xiran covered his head and said: "Since Ah Jin doesn't plan to go, then I won't go either. My father said that he will marry me after I pass the exam...Anyway, I don't care about waiting another year."
Li Jin patted Chen Xiran on the shoulder, although this person always talks about going to the brothel, in fact, he just looks melancholy in front of the brothel at most.
His father has a bad temper, and he is strict with Chen Xiran in this aspect, Chen Xiran really has no courage.
The next day, during the roll call, dozens of people were screened out, and many of the remaining people also had bitter eyes.
This year, they added trial calculations, and they didn't even know about such an important thing. Yesterday they all went back all night to cram their feet, and today they stood here and were blown by the cold wind, and they forgot all the things they had memorized.
Whether you can pass the exam in the end depends on fate.
At first, Li Jin thought that the fifth test would be to add an extra arithmetic question after the eight-legged essay and composition.
But when he saw the test questions, he was extremely surprised.
This time, the three questions are all arithmetic, and there is no fuss that can fish in troubled waters!
Immediately, someone in the examination room gasped frequently, and it seemed that they were about to pass out.
But the test questions were set by the county magistrate and the Confucianists, and no one could refute them.A white-haired old man passed out the moment he saw the test questions.
In fact, Li Jin could understand his feelings quite well. He managed to pass the first four exams. He thought he could pass the fifth exam, but at this juncture, he took an additional test of mathematics.
All those years of hard work were in vain, and he himself was getting old, so he didn't know if he could stick to the next exam...
For a moment, his mentality collapsed and he fainted.
The yamen servants came down quickly, pinched people, and poured hot soup.The old man woke up slowly, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted on finishing the exam.
Whether you can pass the exam is another matter, but if you just give up the exam, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
After copying the questions, Li Jin drafted the calculation.He is well aware of the process of arithmetic, but in ancient times, there were basically no formulas for answering arithmetic questions, and they were all described in words.
After confirming that the answer was correct, Li Jin had to rethink the organizational language before transcribing the answer sheet.
Mathematics is his strong point after all, Li Jin put down his pen before the hot soup at noon.
The inspector came to collect the papers, seeing that it was still early, he simply let him rest in the vacant room next to him.It is impossible to release people in advance. Except for those who give up the exam, everyone else has to be 'discharged' together after the exam.
The county magistrate was sitting at the front to handle the case. From the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Li Jin and admired his temperament and appearance.
Coupled with the fact that Li Jin handed in the papers ahead of time, and the papers that the inspector held in his hands were full and neatly written, the county magistrate couldn't help but take a few more glances at the young man.
After staying up until dark again, Li Jin followed the crowd out.
Chen Xiran has never been short of food since he was a child, but these days he can only eat hot soup and steamed buns at noon, and he is not allowed to go to the toilet.In addition, Li Jin directly said that he would not go to the brothel, Chen Xiran also lost the idea of pleasure at the moment, and only wanted to go back to the inn to take a good hot bath to dispel the cold.
At the gate of the county government office, Huang Yiling's eyebrows were beaming.
"Thank you so much for the book, Ah Jin and Brother Chen! The first question this time is completely a deformation of the content in the book. Although I haven't figured out the third question, I don't think the test will be too bad this time."
When he said 'not too bad', he probably meant that he could pass the county test.
Li Jin said, "Congratulations."
Huang Yiling pulled him to correct the answer to the first question again, and he was even happier when he heard that Li Jin got the same result as him.
But for the second question, five of them got five answers...
In the end, Xu Zifan said: "Yiling, don't be so keen on answering the questions. You said you were going to the brothel before. If you don't, it will be too late."
Li Jin and Chen Xiran declined their invitation to go to the brothel together on the grounds that they were too tired after the exam.
Several people parted ways at the gate of the county government office, and made an appointment to go to a wine shop for a drink tomorrow.
This time Li Jin agreed. After all, it was a group activity, so it was unreasonable for him not to participate at all.
Early the next morning, when Li Jin woke up, he could still hear Chen Xiran snoring softly in the inner room.
After washing up, he went out to exercise. This time he didn't wear cotton clothes, but only a coarse bunt.
After all, I have to run, and I will sweat if I wear too thick.
Li Jin usually wears a cotton padded coat made of coarse cloth at home, and only has a long gown over it.
But during the exam, candidates were only allowed to wear a thin cotton padded jacket, so Li Jin would wear the cotton padded jacket with a coarse cloth inside.
The county government office without candidates was a little deserted, and Li Jin ran around the inner city, and he was in a hurry.
When he ran back, he felt that he saw a big man with a slight impression.
The man seemed to have noticed Li Jin's gaze, and turned his head to look over. Li Jin even caught a hint of admiration from the other's eyes.
After all, the other party was still kind, and Li Jin nodded to him as a greeting.
After returning to the inn, Li Jin couldn't remember when he saw this big man.
But he said that the man turned his footsteps and went in directly from the back door of the county government office.
The county magistrate has already got up to correct the test papers, and there are two masters who corrected with him.
The man's name was Wu Fang, and he was a servant of the county government. Some time ago, he was sent to investigate the reputation of students in various villages and towns, and he was still checking the students recommended by each scholar in private.
For fear of being recognized by others, the county magistrate didn't let him help in the inspection tour.
Wu Fang is very optimistic about the student named Li Jin, and the pastoral poem describes the scene of his parents working.
He still remembers that when he was a child, his parents told him to help him more. The more he practiced, the stronger he got, and he would always be asked to do the work in the fields in the future.
It's just that I didn't expect that after I became stronger, I was recruited by the county government and became a government servant.
Therefore, Wu Fang still has a little impression of Li Jin.
He didn't expect that he would be recognized by Li Jin, but the county test had already passed, so it wasn't a violation to say hello.
Looking at the bunt made of coarse cloth, it is clear that he does not shy away from his farm background, but because of the bookish look in his eyes, people dare not underestimate him.
Wu Fang even had a higher opinion of this person.
He has seen too many people forget their ancestors and abandon their wretched wives after a little fame.
Wu Fang thought so, and told the matter to the master who was in charge, so the master added another sentence under Li Jin's comment, "Being good-natured, not clinging to a wealthy family, and not shy away from a farmer's background."
If Li Jin was here, he would find that there were only ten people in the master's records.
And these ten people are all outstanding students from all over the world.If their answer sheet levels are similar, the one with the highest reputation will naturally be selected for the first place.
And once he became the leader of the county examination, it is very likely that the leader of the next court examination will also fall on this person.
The magistrate is also very happy to spread the story of "Little Three Yuan" in the province under his jurisdiction.
This is also part of the performance.
And Li Jin himself, without the slightest knowledge, was already the top candidate.
As soon as Li Jin and Chen Xiran went out, they bumped into Huang Yiling and the others.
When Huang Yiling saw the two of them, he immediately came up to say hello: "Thanks to the help of Ah Jin and Brother Chen, we didn't miss the prefect's book."
