Chapter 41 The period of the government examination is approaching
Wu Jie didn't know what happened to the Tang family, and he didn't have the heart to care about it.
After two days of delay in Xinjin County, after finishing the packing, he took a cold sedan chair with Mozi to head to Chengdu. Originally, Wu Jie wanted to take a boat. Nowadays, there are no cars or trains. Whether it is comfort or speed, taking a boat is the first choice for passengers.
Unfortunately, Morizi said that Wu Jie was still weak and could not breathe the wind. There was no way, so he could only stay in the sedan. Fortunately, Chengdu is only 30 kilometers away from Xinjin, so he would not be impatient when he sat.
The health of several porters was surprisingly healthy. They carried Wu Jie and walked twenty miles in one breath without taking a breath, but they made him feel a little dizzy.
The weather began to get hotter, and everyone changed into single clothes. But Wu Jie was still covered with a thin quilt by a moth, which made him sweat all over.
Without wanting to be too irritating with the moth on this, Wu Jie had to accept his fate. Lying in the cold sedan chair, his mood had already flown to the house for trial.
The palace examination is the second level of the boy examination, and the content of the same county examination is basically the same.
In fact, Chengdu Prefecture had posted a notice a few days ago, announcing the date and number of exams. There were still three games, and the exam was completed in three days. The exam was over and the list was announced three days later.
These three scenes are one scene of essays, one scene of trial posting poems and one scene of policy discussions.
One day of the first exam, I wrote an essay, which is the eight-legged essay. This is Wu Jie’s strength, so I’m not afraid of it.
The next day I was trying to post the poem. Anyway, I had the test questions in hand, just copy them.
The only difference between the county examination is that there is an extra policy discussion, which will take two days to take according to the rules. However, this year, the Chengdu prefect is busy with government affairs and has not had time to spend too much time on the government examination, so it is compressed into one day.
Speaking of which, these three exams are not difficult for Wu Jie. Anyway, I have the test questions in hand, so I memorized the sample half a month earlier and thought it was a life experience.
The prefect of Chengdu was impatient, and Wu Jie was even more impatient. Compared to the county examination, the government examination was much more formal. Not to mention the formal examination room, candidates could not bring any items into the venue. They had to search their bodies before entering. They were not allowed to leave after the exam. They had to sleep in the examination room that night and could not go home until the third-day exam period was over.
It is simply a torture to stay in the examination room for three days. Don’t let the candidates enter the examination room, they have to review the questions, write drafts, answer questions, and then check. Although the three days are long, they are still fulfilling. Poor Wu Jie just needs to copy the pre-memorized sample essays, which doesn’t take much time. Could it be that he has to stare in the examination room next?
Fortunately, the prefecture exam is the same as the county exam. The examiner can mark the papers on the spot. As long as the chief examiner reads your article, he can accept you on the spot, and there is no need to suffer for three days of nothing to do in the exam.
Therefore, Wu Jie decided to pass the test at once. He didn't have to hide his weaknesses, so he simply copied a famous work of a celebrity, then waved his sleeves, and left with the honor of the head of the head of the famous case.
As for the next two trial poems and policy arguments, let them go to hell!
In fact, the title of the eight-legged essay in the first scene is very simple. There are at least ten sample essays to choose from in the information he has. Among them, there are several famous works of famous people. It is difficult for him to choose which one to go up.
It is precisely because the county and government tests that were passed by the boy test are really inconsistent, and they have a great relationship with the examiner’s personal taste. As for the main tester’s appetite, everything is easy to say. Otherwise, no matter how well you write, you will not take any.
If the prefect is a sleek and elegant person, you just copy a well-established and heavy essay; or the prefect is a steady gentleman who likes thick and round words, but you just write the article in a colorful way, but the result is just the opposite of what you expected.
Just like Fan Jin passed the exam in the famous novel "The Scholars" in later generations, Fan Jin should be an honest and honest character, and his writings are dull and dull. He has been taking the exam for a lifetime, but he can't win the exam. But later, because of the right appetite of the chief examiner, he finally succeeded and became a madman by great joy.
Wu Jie knew nothing about the surname and words of the prefect of Chengdu and what kind of words he liked. It is precisely because the prefecture was successful because of the person, he could not mess around based on his feelings. It is still necessary to touch the prefect's background in advance.
Fortunately, Wu Jie and Tongwen met at the Tang Family Poetry Conference. This time he went to Chengdu, he was about to visit him. First, he asked him to protect him, and second, he could also find out the character and nature of the prefect so that he could prescribe the right medicine.
The cold sedan chair was walking on the road for a day, and the porters had a good journey. Finally, they entered the city at the gate of Tianheiguan.
I was so tired along the way that I didn’t care about anything else, so I found a clean inn near Nanmen Fuhe Bridge to rest and slept beautifully all night.
When he woke up the next day, Wu Jie asked the store to buy a gift, wrote a message to him, went to the yamen to ask about Wen Tongzhi's address, and went to visit him.
In modern society, Wu Jie also came to Chengdu once. Speaking of which, it was just like when I was in college. A roommate in the same dormitory was from Chengdu. During the summer vacation of his sophomore year, he invited him to come and traveled.
That guy seemed to live on the red screen wall next to Renmin South Road, just so happened that Wen Tongzhi's family was also here.
Unlike later generations, there are a large number of green tiled courtyards in front of them. The Sichuan Provincial Administration Office in the north, the Chengdu Prefectural Office and the Prince's Mansion of a Prince are crowded together, which looks majestic and majestic. The location is just in the position of the provincial exhibition official in modern society. However, the tall statue of Mao's hand stretching forward was replaced by a city building.
After looking at the Chengdu style for a long time, Wu Jie then went to call the door.
Wen Tongzhi didn't seem to be a wealthy person. As the second-in-command administrative officer of Chengdu Prefecture, he lives in an ordinary two-entry house, and the house looks very dilapidated.
"It turned out to be Wu Jie and Wu Caizi, who was famous in Shu. Now your poems are singed by the brothels and Chu Pavilions all over the city! My master has been muttering about you these days, saying that he wishes he could meet you. Today, Wu Caizi, you came to the door in person. He didn't know what he was happy when he knew it." What came out of the door was a door in his early forties and answered the movie handed over by Wu Jie. He looked at it and was very polite. He led him into the living room, looked at the tea, and said, "Wait a minute," and went into the backyard.
Wu Jie was proud and sat leisurely in the living room and started drinking tea.
But after not waiting for a moment, the door came over and threw the prayer letter on the coffee table in front of Wu Jie with a very bad attitude, and said coldly: "Sir Tongzhi is busy, let's wait."
Wu Jie was shocked when he heard this. According to what this disciple said before, the poem he wrote at the poetry meeting had already shaken the whole of Chengdu, and Wen Tongzhi also admired him very much. But why did this disciple's attitude change in a blink of an eye?
