Walking across the Qingyun Bridge, Lin Yanchao held an oil-paper umbrella and followed the candidates to the supply center first. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lin Yanchao went to the supply center and received two candles and some charcoal from Cheng Yan.

The first test of the township test was from dawn to night, with seven questions, two candles were given at night, and the candles burned out and could not be answered, that is, they were forcibly helped out. As for charcoal, it is for cooking, but it rained a little autumn today, I am afraid that it will be a little cold after the rain, and I am dyed with a little wind chill, so it is better not to catch a cold.

So Lin Yanchao received some charcoal, and the examination room had its own charcoal stove, and he could also light charcoal to ward off the cold.

In addition, there are food, water, candlesticks, door curtains, trumpet tops, pen, ink, paper, inkstones, etc., but some Lin Yanchao has already brought his own and will not buy them.

A civil official wearing a seven-grade official robe sits under the canopy, and according to the rules, the township test supply center needs to set up a supervisor and a temporary official, who is the head of the county magistrate. The civil official under the canopy must be He Nanru, the magistrate of Min County. As the parent official of Ba Min Shou County, his task in the township test is only to guard the logistics and supply areas such as the supply station.

After receiving the object and moving forward dozens of steps, there is a big archway in front of the dragon gate, the book is written with the four words of Tianwen Wenyun, there is a memorial arch on the left and right, the left is said to be a scholar of the Ming scriptures, and the right is said to be a virtuous person for the country.

There is a plaque on the dragon gate, I can't see what words are written at night, but I don't have to guess to know that it is the word Gongyuan, and then look into the distance, the watchtower in the four corners blends into the night, and the first floor is definitely Mingyuan Tower.

The gatekeeper has opened the dragon gate, and the candidates in front of him have already begun to search and enter.

An officer and soldier wearing a big red trumpet jacket stepped forward and asked, "This minister dares to ask where the scholar is?" ”

"Hou Guanshizi."

"Then please wait here. Jinke is the first to enter the Xinghua Mansion. ”

Lin Yanchao went to the side as he said, but when he saw the Jiang Sect learned by Houguan County, he was standing there with an umbrella.

After Lin Yanchao saluted Sect Jiang, Sect Jiang said with a smile: "Zong Hai, come quickly, you will be in the hall in a while." ”

But see Weng Zhengchun. Chen Yinglong and several other acquaintances were already there, and everyone saluted each other.

On the side of the Houguan County scholar was the Min County scholar, Lin Yanchao met Lin Chengyi, Gong Zinan, and Lin Shibi were also among them.

At that moment, Lin Yanchao saluted Lin Chengyi, and several people in the Minxian County scholars smiled and said to Lin Chengyi: "Brother Lin, this is a master and apprentice to go to Kedi together!" ”

Lin Chengyi didn't feel disgraceful at all when he heard it. On the contrary, there is a pride on his face that 'blue is better than blue'.

Lin Chengyi said to Lin Yanchao: "You don't have a good face, but you're sick?" ”

Lin Yanchao said: "If you have a little cough in the morning, you should feel the wind cold." ”

Lin Chengyi frowned after hearing this, so he took a little ointment from the exam box and stuffed it into Lin Yanchao's hand and said, "If you feel uncomfortable during the exam for a while, stick it on your navel." ”

"Yes."

Seeing this scene, several people on the side laughed privately. Zhou Zongcheng stepped forward and said in a weird manner: "Oops, Brother Lin is sick. This is not good, it's cold today, and I'll have to take seven more exams later, I don't know if you can hold it? However, there are medical officers in the examination room, if you can't. Don't forget to shout! ”

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "Thank you Brother Zhou for your kindness, you have to take care of yourself." ”

"Of course, don't hold on if you can't, I'm doing this for your own good." Zhou Zongcheng Road.

On the side, Chen Yinglong, Weng Zhengchun and other friends all glared angrily. Lin Chengyi said with a straight face: "Zong Hai, don't pay attention to him. ”

"What are you messing around?" Lin Shibi walked over.

Zhou Zongcheng knew Lin Shibi's identity in the ya, and immediately smiled and apologized: "Lin Guanren, I'm joking with Zonghai." ”

At that moment, a few people left in a huff.

The rain is getting heavier. The sound of rain on the paper umbrella was dense, and there were already a few small puddles on the ground. Look at this gloomy weather. All the candidates are not in a very good mood, the examination room of the Gongyuan is in disrepair, if the wind and rain leak into the examination room, it will be miserable.

Therefore, many candidates from poor families had to give up a sum of money when they saw this scene. I went back to the supply house and bought a curtain to protect myself from the rain and the wind, and I went to the top.

After waiting for a while, there were some bright colors in the sky, and there was the sound of gongs and shouts outside.

Lin Yanchao heard the sound of the gong in a total of thirteen, and immediately beckoned his companions to step aside and give way to the avenue.

Lin Yanchao has only been gone for a short time. I heard the officers and soldiers who praised the front shouting: "Master Futai is inspecting the tribute courtyard, and you don't quickly retreat to the side." ”

These soldiers were pushed by the officers and soldiers, their shoes were inevitably stepped on, and their clothes were messy, but Lin Yanchao and several other classmates avoided them early to avoid such rude treatment.

As soon as the people who praised the Tao passed, two teams of Fuyuan soldiers wearing bright red robes behind them came to the avenue in front of the Gongyuan with guns and knives, and lined up on both sides.

Under the purple crown, a large sedan chair hugged in front of the front and back, and came to stop the sedan chair in front of the archway in front of the dragon gate.

The person in the sedan chair did not get out of the sedan chair, but waited for a while.

At this time, a few officials in the dragon gate came,

First of all, Wan Siqian, the political envoy of Zuo Bu, who served as the official of the township test, and then the internal and external supervisors of the township test, a seven-grade imperial history in Beijing, and a provincial patrol according to the imperial history business.

These three people are all the outer curtain officials in the township examination, and the rest of the four outer curtain officials, namely the receiving officer, the sealing officer, the transcription officer, the reading official, and the examination officials such as the prison officer, the patrol officer, and the superintendent officer, all came out of the Gongyuan to greet them.

But seeing the head on the official's hat shaking at the foot of the steps, all kinds of supplements gathered.

Seeing this scene, Chen Yinglong couldn't help but say: "Our Futai adults today are really a big show!" ”

Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "That's it, who told him to be the first to weigh right now." ”

Liu Yaoxu, the governor of Fujian, won Zhang Juzheng's deep belief in the victory of Lin Feng with his military exploits, and the officialdom heard that he immediately succeeded Yin Zhengmao as the governor of Liangguang.

It is said that Lin Yanchao also helped Yu Dayou to protect his official position, and he also helped Liu Yaoyu. Of course, it would be naïve to think that he could make friends with the governor based on this.

As he spoke, the sedan curtain opened.

An official in his fifties stepped out of the sedan chair, but saw that he was wearing a python robe, with a tall figure and a slightly thin cheek.

He looked left and right slightly, and there were no military officials beside him, all of whom immediately lowered their heads. Just seeing this kind of unrestrained bearing, I know that this person is the current governor of Fujian, Liu Yaozhi.

Liu Yaoyu just glanced left and right, waved his hand, and did not need his entourage to come up to take the umbrella, but stepped forward with both hands and went straight to the tribute courtyard. It wasn't until he walked into the Dragon Gate that the rest of the township test officials followed Liu Yaoyu into the Tribute Courtyard in turn according to the size of their official positions.

Seeing this scene, the candidates were envious of this domineering governor.

One by one, it was inevitable to sigh like 'the husband should be like this', and then he was even more eager to take the township test.

If the township test is successful, it is to raise people, and if you raise people, you have the qualifications to be officials. (To be continued.) )
