I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

"Don't worry about that, once I have the chance, I will definitely find a way to find out the secret place where the old demon is holding the hostages.

Not only your family, but I also have to find a way to save other people.

In this way, the bargaining chip held by the old demon can be weakened to the greatest extent. "

"Well, thank you for your trouble, my lord. What I can do is really limited. Once the behavior is abnormal, the old demon will definitely become suspicious."

"Then don't come to me if you don't have any important matters in the future, otherwise it will be easy for that old demon to target me in advance."

Xin Jiuniang nodded: "I understand."

Next, she told everything she knew about Purdue Cihang.

"Okay, my lord, I've told you everything I know, I hope this can help you, lord."

"Well, that should help."

"Young master, do you have any questions? If not, the concubine will go back to the palace first."

Gu Ming thought for a while, and said: "There is nothing else, but the little prince probably has a grudge against me because of Miss Luo's matter, you have nothing to do, beat that kid, if you continue to make trouble for no reason"

When he said this, a trace of murderous intent flashed in Gu Ming's eyes.

What about the little prince?

It's really going too far, and I'm going to do something wrong to that guy!

Upon hearing this, Xin Jiuniang couldn't help but gossip and asked: "Then how far have you and Miss Luo's family developed? I heard that you met once, but the chat was very speculative"

"Don't ask these questions and mind your own business."

Gu Ming said angrily.

"What's the matter? Forget it. I'm leaving. I wanted to chat with you for a while. I'm not in the mood."

"Slow walk without sending!"

"Humph"

Xin Jiuniang snorted, but disappeared in an instant.

Just as Gu Ming picked up the book, a gust of fragrant wind hit him again

""

"Didn't you leave?"

“almost forgot one thing”

Xin Jiuniang thought, and a long, soft hair appeared in her hand.

"Keep this away, and in case of any emergency, burn it with incense"

"Light incense and burn it? What's the use?"

Gu Ming raised his hand to take it, spread it in the palm of his hand to observe carefully, and asked with a puzzled face at the same time.

"This is the fox tail hair that I carefully refined. It contains part of my magic power. You can treat it as a clone of me."

"Oh?"

Gu Ming suddenly had a strange idea.

"Don't think too much about this avatar that exists for at most one hour after it appears, and disappears after its mana is exhausted.

At that time, I will feel everything that happened. "

"Only an hour? It's a pity."

Gu Ming smacked his lips.

"Don't be hypocritical, don't think I don't know what's going on in your mind."

"I don't even know what I'm thinking, how do you know?"

"You men say one thing, think one thing, and do another thing."

Gu Ming couldn't help being amused: "It sounds like you know men very well? Then guess what I'm thinking now?"

Xin Jiuniang said with a half-smile, "You want me to stay tonight."

Gu Ming: ""

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, I'm really leaving this time, I wish you the number one scholar in high school!"

"Auspicious words from your mother!"

As soon as the words fell, Xin Jiuniang disappeared without a trace, leaving only a faint fragrance.

"interesting"

Gu Ming looked at the hair in his hand, thought of it, and put it in his carry-on package.

Chapter 189 The old man has a critical eye...

A few days later, the triennial trial kicked off again.

In the afternoon, candidates from all over the country flocked to wait outside the tribute courtyard, waiting to be verified to enter the arena.

After entering the venue, get used to the environment first. The exam will officially start tomorrow morning.

The content of the general examination is similar to that of the rural examination, but the competition is more intense. After all, those who are eligible to participate in the general examination are all successful, and none of them are mediocre.

Of course, there are very few exceptions to cheating through relationships.

The time is also much longer than the rural examination, so that candidates can have more time to develop their own level.

The exam is divided into three sessions of three days each.

The first session mainly examines the meaning of the Four Books and Five Classics, the second session examines theory, edicts, edicts, tables, and judgments, and the third session examines policy theory.

The examination categories are no strangers to all candidates, after all, they have all experienced the baptism of the rural examination.

However, this time, I have to take the exam more seriously, and I can't tolerate small mistakes. After all, this will be a fierce competition.

Juzi from all over the country gathered together, and there are many outstanding ones among them.

More than 2000 people participated in the test, and the number of admitted students ranged from [-] to [-].In other words, the acceptance rate is almost one tenth, and on average, nine out of ten people will be eliminated. One can imagine how difficult it is to be promoted to Jinshi.

Once a high school Jinshi, most of them have the opportunity to be an official.

Even if you can't be ranked in the ranks for a while and can't be an official, you can still receive the imperial salary and enjoy a lot of special treatment. In short, it is more beautiful than juren.

In this examination, the candidates who received the most attention were the candidates who won the Jieyuan and Yayuan rankings in the provincial examinations last year.

According to normal circumstances, the chances of these high school Jieyuan and Yayuan students winning the championship in the end are relatively high.

Of course, it is not ruled out that some originally unknown candidates will make a big splash and finally win the gold list.

And this time, Gu Ming is undoubtedly the one that has attracted the most attention, not one of them.

Although there were several outstanding candidates in the same period, for example, Lu Meng, who was tied with Gu Ming to solve the Yuan Dynasty, was the leader in breaking out of the siege of Gusu Mansion, which has the reputation of being the hometown of talented scholars.

There is also Qiao Yongjin, a well-known talent from Guanzhong. It is said that he can compose poems at the age of three, and that he can fight against many scholars at the age of five.

Xie Yuan Wang Hao from Lingnan also has a lot of halos on his head

However, no matter how many child prodigies there are or how many auras there are, Gu Ming can stand out from the crowd with only the word "hand-picked".

Not to mention the students, but there are many military officials in the capital secretly paying attention.

Of course, it's unknown what their own thoughts are.

After all, for a person who is highly regarded by the emperor, once he is the number one scholar in high school, his future will be even brighter.

Entering the Hanlin Academy is a certainty.

If nothing else, he will eventually enter the cabinet.

The cabinet is a special existence. Apart from the emperor, it can be called the highest authority in the dynasty. The three divisions and six ministries are all under its supervision and jurisdiction.

Therefore, Gu Ming's movements have attracted the attention of all the ministers.

When the time came, the four chief examiners and more than twenty fellow examiners filed into the arena.

The general examination is presided over by the Ministry of Rites, and most of the chief examiners and fellow examiners are from the cabinet and the Imperial Academy. After all, this is a crucial examination of the imperial examination, and the imperial court will naturally attach great importance to it.

A group of candidates lined up one by one to accept the examination.

In addition to verifying your identity, you also need to search for any private goods. Any books, notes, etc. are forbidden to be brought into the examination room to prevent someone from cheating.

Cheating in scientific examinations has existed since ancient times.

The method is also full of tricks. For example, someone used to hide the cheat sheet in props such as steamed buns and candles and bring it into the examination room.

Later, in order to prevent such phenomena as much as possible, candidates were prohibited from bringing anything that had nothing to do with the exam into the venue.

Including writing brushes are not allowed, after all, things can be hidden in the pen tube.At that time, these related props will be distributed uniformly.

However, the inspections that will be tried are much more relaxed.

After all, those who participated in the examination were all Juren, so it was necessary to give some face.

Moreover, when it comes to taking an exam of this level, even if you are lucky enough to bring a little cheat sheet in, it won't help much.

Many categories require candidates to perform on the spot.

Of course, if Gu Ming wants to carry private goods, it's easy. Let's find out about the package?

But he doesn't need to cheat on the spot. To be precise, he has a lot of related books in his mind. He has already read the Four Books and Five Classics by heart, not to mention poetry.

The only thing that needs to be worked out is the strategy in the third game.

This is also a crucial exam. After all, the imperial court selects future officials, and it is not enough to select only officials. They also need to have an outstanding concept of governing the country.

Policy theory is to test whether a person's ideas are beneficial to the court and whether there are any differences.

In fact, this aspect is not a big deal for Gu Ming. After all, he is a time traveler, and he dare not say that he is familiar with history, but he still knows some basic pros and cons of governing the country.

The key is how to combine them together, and also have to adapt to the situation of the current dynasty, and the concept should not be too advanced, or it may be self-defeating if it is too advanced.

In short, we must grasp the psychology of those in power.

After entering the examination room, Gu Ming successfully found his dormitory.

The houses of the Gong Yuan in the capital are arranged according to the thousand characters, and Gu Ming's house is coincidentally the same as his name: Mingzihao.

This is not deliberately arranged, it is completely a coincidence.

After all candidates have entered the hall and entered their respective dormitories, in principle they cannot leave the dormitories at will.

The Gong Yuan in the capital has designed latrines at the end of each row of dormitories. If candidates are in a hurry, they can hang the "Gong" sign outside, which means to show respect.

Only after the examiner's permission can they leave the dormitory to go to the toilet, and the door is not allowed to be closed. In fact, there is no door at all, so that the examiner can monitor whether the examinee is cheating under the guise of being respectful.

Compared with eating and drinking in the dormitory during the rural examination, this is already considered a lot more humane.

In short, whether it is the provincial examination or the general examination, for all candidates, it is both an opportunity and a torture.

Dare not eat too much food, dare not drink too much water, in order to minimize the chance of going to the toilet, and the dignified man can finally understand the irritability of women in those few days.

Fortunately, Gu Ming doesn't have to worry about these physical problems at all.

That night was destined to be a sleepless night for the vast majority of candidates.

After all, this will be a huge turning point in life, Yali Shanda

In the torment, the sky turned white.

The exam officially begins.

The first round examines the Four Books and Five Classics and the meaning of the scriptures.

This requires candidates to be familiar with the classics related to the undergraduate examinations such as University, Zhongyong, Analects, Mencius, Book of Songs, Shangshu, Book of Rites, Zhouyi, and Spring and Autumn Annals.

Of course, just reading dead books is useless.

In addition to the content of the Four Books and Five Classics, the test questions also require candidates to compose poems and scriptures.

The so-called scriptures and meanings refer to the sentences in the scriptures as the topic, and the examinees explain their meanings, which is equivalent to discussion.

In Gu Ming's previous life, Jingyi had developed into a fixed body, that is, stereotyped writing that was criticized by countless people in later generations.

Fortunately, apart from the limit on the number of words, the current court has no specific requirements for the examination of the scriptures and meanings, so there is a lot of room for development.

It can also be seen from this that the current dynasty is far more enlightened than the Ming and Qing dynasties in Gu Ming's previous life.
