Daming: Is There Imperial Examination Fraud At The Beginning? I Cry As A Candidate During The Test

Chapter 100 The candidates collapsed: Do we need to retake the exam? Are we going to let people live?!

Beijing.

"The results are released!"

"The results are released!!!"

Voices of excitement and excitement spread throughout the streets.

The candidates and the civilians watching the excitement followed the soldiers who released the results.

The silver armor on the soldier's body reflects the dazzling cold light in the sun. The long sword hanging on his waist is extremely powerful. His body exudes an aura of iron and blood, and his eyes are like an eagle.

The queue of soldiers following the announcement was getting longer and longer.

Hundreds of people.

Thousands of people.

Tens of thousands of people!

Looking down from the restaurants and bars on both sides of the road, one can see a vast sea of ​​densely packed heads.

Such a grand occasion is comparable to the results of the imperial examination!

The second floor of the restaurant.

Qi An and other candidates looked down, and their eyes fell on the Ministry of Etiquette examiner, who was surrounded by soldiers in uniform and holding a list in his hand.

There was excitement and anticipation on his face.

"Go, go, go!"

"Go to Gongyuan's "590" east wall first to take a seat!"

“If you go late, the good seats will be taken away!”

"good idea!!"

"Let's go get a seat quickly!!!"

They rushed out of the wine shop and ran to Gongyuan via another sparsely populated path.

"This way!"

"Brother Qi'an!"

"Brother Zirong!?"

Qi An and others saw from a distance that many people had gathered on the east wall of Gongyuan. Apparently many people had the same idea as them and came to occupy a position.

Xu Zirong stood under the east wall of the Gongyuan, waving to them from a distance.

Not long after they arrived, the examiners and soldiers from the Ministry of Ceremonies also arrived.

The soldiers surrounded the east wall of the Gongyuan and spread out in a semicircle, protecting the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

His eyes were as sharp as a hawk, staring at the group of onlookers.

With warning.

It seems to be saying, "Don't let strangers in."

The examiner from the Ministry of Rites posted several lists on the east wall.

Candidates and ordinary people are staring at the list.

The people looked at it casually out of curiosity.

Candidates are looking for their names on the list.

"*............."

Xu Zirong stared closely at the posted lists, looking for his name one by one.

The first list.

No.

the second one.

nor!

Xu Zirong's heart dropped slightly.

Even though he already knew that his grades were very poor, there was still hope in his heart that he would be on the list.

When you don't see your name on the list.

He felt unspeakable disappointment.

After reading the last list.

Xu Zirong was completely disappointed.

There's really no name for him.

Examiner's assessment.

He failed.

Qi An and others standing next to him were also stretching their heads, looking at the list from the crowd.

However, they also failed.

Qi An, Xu Zirong and others were like puppies soaked in heavy rain.

His face was full of dejection.

His shoulders slumped.

"The test questions set by Mr. Ye are so difficult, it's normal for us to fail."

"And, you see, thousands of people take the exam, and only one tenth of them pass."

"If we fail to pass the selection of examiners, we can try the imperial examination again."

"There will be no Master Ye Xuan in the next imperial examination."

"We will definitely have the opportunity to enter official careers."

Xu Zirong comforted Qi An and others with a strong smile.

Qi An and others also managed to smile.

I felt quite disappointed.

Can't cheer up.

I thought I could pass the selection of examiners and enter the court to show off my talents.

Who would have thought that the test questions Ye Xuan asked would be so difficult.

Ye Xuan is indeed worthy of being hailed as the living king of hell by the candidates for the general examination and the palace examination.

Qi An and others thought together.

"bingo!"

"I hit!!!""

An astonishing sound of joy erupted from the side, and a young man wearing ordinary clothes raised his fists and shouted with excitement, his face flushed.

"Congratulations to Brother Huang for high school!"

"Congratulations!!"

People nearby congratulated him.

Xu Zirong and others were hit hard.

Because of the clothes on the young man who made the list, it was clear that he was not a scholar from a well-off family, but a commoner.

"We can't even compare to ordinary people. It's in vain that we have read the books of sages for so many years."

"Perhaps this person was taught by a great Confucian scholar."

Qi An and others comforted themselves like this.

His face has gradually collapsed.

But people who knew about it were talking a lot.

"Isn't this Huang Shengzhong, the son of a restaurant owner in Dongshi? A merchant's son can actually take the exam?"

"The selection of examiners is not an imperial examination, and there is no clear requirement that the sons of merchants cannot take the exam."

"This man's luck is really good."

When Qi An, Xu Zirong and others heard this, they collapsed.

"Is this person really not a scholar?"

"We have read so many books of sages in vain."

"But not even as good as a merchant's son!"

If there weren't too many people here, they might have burst into tears.

I think they have read the Four Books and Five Classics for so many years.

But these books are completely useless.

Now he is outshone by a merchant's son.

It's like a Harvard academic who has perfect scores in every subject, and suddenly a beggar pops up. This beggar actually calculates the world's unsolved mysteries that even Harvard academics cannot...

It’s hard not to be devastated.

They tried not to cry, which was a great honor to everyone.

"Brother Huang, congratulations."

Zhang Yue also congratulated Huang Shengzhong.

Huang Shengzhong couldn't stop smiling on his face.

"Brother Zhang, how are you?"

"I was lucky enough to be on the list."

Zhang Yue said modestly.

Huang Shengzhong saw Zhang Yue's name in the front row of the list.

This list is ranked by score.

Zhang Yue can be ranked first.

His score must be very high.

Huang Shengzhong couldn't help but was dumbfounded, "Brother Zhang, you are too humble. We have all passed the examiner's assessment, and we must be able to enter the official career.

Brother Zhang, my family owns a restaurant, if you don’t mind, how about I invite you to my restaurant to celebrate?”

Other successful candidates also met and prepared to celebrate.

Zhang Yue shook his head.

Huang Shengzhong frowned slightly, and the smile disappeared from his face.

"Brother Zhang, could it be that you, like others, dislike me for being the son of a merchant?"

"it's not true."

"Brother Huang, look at the bottom line of the list."

Zhang Yue pointed to the line at the bottom of the list.

It says:

Those who win the exam will go to Gongyuan three days later for a re-examination with the examiner.

In an instant, Huang Shengzhong was stunned.

Those who made the list also saw this line.

They performed face-changing tricks on the spot, and the smiles on their faces disappeared completely.

Fear emerges.

Haven't finished the exam yet?

Still need to conduct an interview?

Face the examiner?!

Just doing question 4.6 can make you tortured like that.

If we were to face Ye Xuan directly, would it be okay?

All the successful candidates were trembling.

Want to cry but no tears.

Can I skip the interview?

Can you not face the weird examiner Ye Xuan?

They were afraid of being asked by Ye Xuan and making them cry on the spot.

At that time, I was embarrassed and lost my fortune.

Xu Zirong and other failed candidates also noticed this line, and their hearts suddenly became more balanced.

what the hell.

It turns out they still have to take exams.

And it's an interview.

The interview was with Ye Xuan, who asked questions like a living hell.

Fortunately we didn't make the cut.

Otherwise, we will have to face Ye Xuan, the living king of hell.

At this moment, those candidates who failed were even more grateful that they had failed.

Fortunately, I didn't pass the exam.

Who dares to face that weird examiner Ye Xuan?

They have had enough of this torture!
