After becoming the villain's eldest sister, I take charge of the whole family

In a weird atmosphere.

Master Liu walked in holding a stack of test papers.

He looked around, paused for a moment at Xie Boyuan, walked up to the nearest student, and ordered, "Distribute them one by one."

The man nodded respectfully: "Yes, Master."

A few minutes later.

After distributing the test papers.

Master Liu looked down, cleared his throat, and said, "The academy exam is approaching. You are all students, and I believe that you all want to take the exam, and some of you are confident that you can pass it."

"For this monthly exam, I have created a complete set of questions modeled after the academy exam. The time limit is two hours."

"Okay, start answering the questions on your own."

Everyone stood up and bowed in response, "Yes, Master."

Xie Boyuan was also among them.

sit down.

The study room fell into silence, with only the sounds of turning pages and grinding ink.

Xie Linghe also focused his attention on the test questions.

One article from the Four Books.

One article from the Five Classics.

A five-character six-rhyme test poem.

Write down about 100 words of "The Sacred Edict" from memory.

Write an essay in a practical style.

An essay on current affairs.

Unlike county and prefectural examinations, the Four Books and Five Classics were no longer filled-in questions, but required answers in the form of eight-part essays.

The eight-part essay is divided into the following parts: breaking the topic, continuing the topic, starting the lecture, entering the topic, starting the section, middle section, last section, and concluding section. It requires the use of parallel and antithetical sentences. There are eight sections in total, so it is also called the eight-part essay.

Closer to home.

Xie Linghe browsed through them one by one and found that she had a clear idea for each question and they were not difficult at all.

then.

I felt relieved.

After all, she can do it, just like Xie Boyuan can do it.

Now, Xie Zhongji and the other two are still far behind, and only Xie Boyuan can provide her with a lot of knowledge.

Watched for a while.

Seeing that Xie Boyuan was fine, she disconnected.

……

Study hall.

Everyone was writing furiously.

That's not the case. Some of them have already given up their studies and are sitting in their seats, scratching their skin and looking like they can't sit still.

Master Liu glared at them.

They immediately smiled awkwardly and pretended to do the test questions seriously.

See this.

Master Liu shook his head secretly.

He ignored them, put his hands behind his back, and began to patrol the examination room. He stopped beside a few students and observed them for a while. There was no joy on his face.

At last.

He accidentally stopped beside Xie Boyuan's desk.

Xie Boyuan's expression was calm, and his hands didn't even tremble, as if Master Liu didn't exist.

See this.

Master Liu nodded secretly.

Calm and composed, not bad.

I checked his test paper again, and then I couldn't take my eyes off it.

The Four Books are correct.

Pentateuch, correct.

The five-character six-rhyme examination poem is excellent.

"The Sacred Edicts" is correct.

then……

Gone.

Why don’t you write?

Master Liu was not satisfied with what he saw and was about to say something when he suddenly realized that he was in the examination room. He immediately became serious and walked away with a stern face.

In this regard.

Sui Chunsheng, who seemed to be answering the questions seriously but was actually absent-mindedly paying attention to Master Liu and Xie Boyuan, breathed a sigh of relief.

He was scared to death just now.

He also thought that Xie Boyuan's answers were so good that the teacher was reluctant to leave.

Fortunately.

The teacher looked so unhappy, it must be because his answer was so bad that the teacher was angry.

Should!

Xie Boyuan, from today on, you should get out.

the other side.

Bai Lingxing also breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he calmed his mind and continued to answer the questions seriously.

When the bet between the two became known to everyone in the town and even to the county, he regretted it.

It's not a change of heart.

Instead, his father beat him severely.

If the college entrance examination wasn’t approaching, I probably wouldn’t want to get out of bed for half a month.

Simultaneously.

His father told him that he must win, otherwise he would beat him to death.

Bai Lingxing signed a military order and took the bet more seriously.

But he never felt that he would lose.

How could Xie Boyuan, a country bumpkin, compare with him?

Xie Boyuan knew nothing about their inner thoughts.

Shake.

Two hours have passed.

Master Liu said, "Okay, stop writing and hand in your test paper."

Hear the words.

Everyone stopped writing.

personally.

Line up and start submitting your answer sheets.

Sui Chunsheng followed Xie Boyuan and asked in a gentle whisper, "Boyuan, how did you do on the exam?"

Xie Boyuan didn't know what modesty was: "Not bad."

Hear the words.

Sui Chunsheng was surprised.

The next moment, disdain flashed in his eyes: What's the point of being stubborn? It's just deceiving yourself.

On his face, he was relieved: "That's good."

It's their turn.

When Xie Boyuan handed in his paper, he glanced at it and found that it seemed to be full, but he didn't care and just thought he had written it casually.

Submitted.

The crowd gathered in groups of three or four to discuss their answers to the test questions. Among them, the top students had the most people around them.

One of them was Bai Lingxing.

He looked up proudly like the moon surrounded by stars, his eyes fixed on Xie Boyuan.

Xie Boyuan's expression remained unchanged.

He turned his head to Sui Chunsheng and said, "I have something to do and need to go to the bookstore."

Without waiting for his answer.

He turned and left the school.

See this.

Everyone had different expressions.

Bai Lingxing smiled disdainfully.

It’s too late to be afraid now!

Sui Chunsheng thought his behavior meant that he was afraid. He felt happy and couldn't hide the smile on his face, but he was afraid of being exposed, so he kept his head down.

Others either gloat over the misfortune, or are indifferent, or ignore it...

Xie Boyuan didn't know that they had imagined so much. He was in a hurry to go out. He met the bookstore owner before coming to the private school in the morning. The owner asked him to come to him when he was free because he had something urgent to tell him.

The owner of the bookstore was the source of his travel expenses for the imperial examination. He did not dare to neglect it, so he rushed to the bookstore as soon as he finished the exam.

have to say.

This is such a beautiful misunderstanding.

the other side.

Master Liu returned to his room and had no time to eat. He took out the best test papers and sat at his desk to start marking them.

Out of selfishness, he put Xie Boyuan's last.

Five servings in total.

The Bering line is the second to last copy.

He reviewed it quickly, and when he came to the fourth one, his expression became serious and he slowed down.

Completed review.

Master Liu nodded: "You have made great progress these days."

"However, if you want to pass the entrance exam, you still have to work harder."

lay down.

He looked at the last test paper, which was Xie Boyuan's. Picking it up, he murmured, "Let me see the results of your study."

Seen it before.

Just review it briefly and move on.

Seeing the practical writing style, this is a law question, and it is also a problem that has troubled him for a long time. This time it is also put here to set the difficulty, to distinguish the levels of students, and to select talents.

pity.

None of the few he had his eye on just now gave him a satisfactory answer.

After reading a few lines of Xie Boyuan's answer, his face darkened and he slowed down his reading. After a long moment, he laughed out loud, "So that's how it is! There's actually such a solution. Good, very good!"

The last question.

The policy questions in the academy examination are not too difficult.

Therefore, he produced a standard one without any problems.

Master Liu was extremely satisfied.

"Good good!"

"The first place this time must go to Xie Boyuan!"
