Chapter 368 Examination Room Attitude
Chapter 368 Examination Room Attitude
miss you!
miss you!
miss you!
Xu Jinyu's words really hit the nail on the head for everyone, but there was nothing we could do now.
Take out the test questions first and let the examination officially begin.
With the sound of several gongs, the examination officially began.
The candidates began to answer the questions nervously, and the people waiting outside were equally nervous. Among these people, there were officials from the court, and they also had relatives taking the exam.
Before the exam, they didn't dare reveal any information in front of Lord Xu, for fear that Lord Xu would dig deeper.
Now that Lord Xu has been locked up in the examination room, everyone can finally speak openly.
"Hey! Why is the King's uncle here?" Seeing someone he knew, Zuo Yuanying went up to say hello.
“I dare not! I dare not! I am not the emperor’s uncle.” This person was none other than Princess Wuyang’s uncle, Lord Luo from the Ministry of Personnel’s Department of Rites and Officials.
"My son took part in this imperial examination. I was worried about him, so I came here to guard him. Sir Zuo, this is..."
Zuo Yuanying simply sat on Lord Luo's table, which was already filled with tea and snacks. He poured himself some tea without any hesitation, "Like you, I have a cousin who is taking the imperial examination. It's his first time taking the imperial examination, so I'm here to wait outside for a while."
The assistant lawyer of the Taichang Temple laughed and said, "Master Zuo, this is a very tight secret."
"It has to be urgent. I'm worried that Lord Xu will check whether my cousin has stayed in a brothel overnight. It's not good for him to have a reputation as a playboy before he even passes the imperial examination."
"Hahaha·······"
Everyone looked at each other and laughed. When Lord Xu was around, everyone had to be careful with their words.
【Hahahahahahaha·······This move is too fierce! 】
Ok?
Several officials widened their eyes in surprise.
It turns out that Lord Xu was locked up in the Imperial Examination Hall, and everyone could still hear Lord Xu's voice. In this case, wouldn't everyone know what happened in the examination room?
And what did the candidates do?
[Why did he take off his pants before the exam even started? Those were cotton pants provided by the court to keep warm.]
[And is it really not cold to have bare legs? 】
Pants off?
Bare legs?
In the middle of winter?
As people who had fought their way through the imperial examination, the officials immediately thought of the reason.
"Who is this person? He pooped his pants as soon as he entered the examination room." Zuo Yuanying said in a low voice.
The nine-day examination not only tests your literary talent, but also your physical fitness. To endure three days in a cell with only three walls is a severe test for those who are not in particularly good physical condition.
Especially in this chilly spring.
Therefore, before entering the examination hall, the candidates would eat a light meal, and some would even not eat meat, for fear of getting stomach upset, otherwise three years would be wasted.
"Young people always have their fill of greedy things. You have to understand that." The assistant lawyer of the Taichang Temple said indifferently.
If young people could control their mouths, they would no longer be called young people.
Sure enough, the next moment, everyone heard Xu Jinyu's small voice burst out,
[Hahaha... He shagged his pants on the first day of the examination. Look at the look in the eyes of the candidate next to him who wanted to kill him. If candidates were not prohibited from whispering, the candidates on both sides of him would jump up and beat him up. He attacked people with poison gas right after the examination started.]
[Ah~~ It's not greed, nor is it carelessness, it's purely stress, because I accidentally ate something that upset my stomach during the first imperial examination, and my family blamed me. Since then, whenever I take the imperial examination, no matter how careful I am, I will have diarrhea as soon as I enter the examination room, even if I don't eat. ]
"Is there such a saying?" Zuo Yuanying asked puzzledly.
Lord Luo thought for a moment and said, "I seem to have heard of this kind of thing. It is said that a few years ago, an official's family was convicted and his daughter was confined to the slave class. The daughter was educated in the Three Obediences and Four Virtues since she was a child. How could she be willing to be a prostitute? Anyway, the result was that the girl would break out in rashes all over her body whenever she was touched by a man."
"How could she possibly receive customers in that state? The madam initially thought that the woman was taking drugs to avoid receiving customers, but after verifying everything, she found that the woman was not taking drugs, and that she really developed a rash when touched by a man. In the end, the woman kept her innocence and became a painter in the brothel."
"So this situation is called stress!"
A few people sighed and pricked up their ears.
When the questions were distributed in the Imperial Examination Hall, most people chose to eat before answering them carefully.
This is when everyone's hands-on ability can be seen.
Some people just took out the cold pancakes and started eating, some started to light a fire and cook porridge, which is the simplest meal, and some people...
【Instant noodles!!!】
[Which genius has thought of selling instant noodles to candidates taking the exam? This is too easy for candidates. Just boil some hot water and soak it in it. There is no problem of it being undercooked or undercooked. It is also OK to soak it in cold water. It won't hurt you anyway.]
[Hey, this person is quite familiar. He was Wuyang's former fiancée, her cousin Luo Wenshu, and he is also here to take the imperial examination.]
Everyone looked at Lord Luo.
Lord Luo from the Ministry of Rites smiled and nodded, "It's my son. He has been concentrating on studying since he was young and never cared about worldly affairs. He really couldn't get a hot meal, but someone recommended this instant noodles. This thing came from Lord Xu's Qianji Pavilion. It's very convenient and just right for my son."
"Lord Luo has worked hard for his son. Lord Luo has worked hard."
"It's not hard, it's not hard, it's all my wife's hard work. As long as my son can pass the imperial examination, everything will be worth it."
"Hey, I don't know about this instant noodle. If I knew, I would definitely make some for my cousin. That way, at least I don't have to worry about him giving himself diarrhea."
[Hey! Hey? Hey~~]
[It's just making noodles, why did he put the porcelain bowl on the stove? There's a small pot next to it, why not use it? Isn't he afraid that the bowl will explode? ]
