Chapter 489

Early the next morning, Dr. Zhang moved a lot of books to Wang Yu's room.

"These books are all for the Boys. I have been asked for you by my teacher, so you can read them carefully."

When Wang Yu saw that these books include "The Book of Songs", "The Book of Songs", "The Book of Rites", "The Book of Changes", "The Book of Changes", "The Spring and Autumn Annals"... Some of them were seen by her, and some were not seen by her, and she immediately felt a big head.

"The exam will be taken in half a month. I hope you can memorize these books and not let down your expectations of being a teacher."

After writing down his earnest expectations on the paper, Doctor Zhang clapped his hands and left.

Wang Yu: "..."

Not long after Doctor Zhang left, Yuan Tiangang walked in.

"I heard that you will prepare for the Boys' Examination next. Then, during this period, Kelan will be taken care of by his teacher."

As he said that, he took Ke Lan away from Wang Yu's arms.

"Wow ~" Ke Lan stretched out his forelimbs to Wang Yu.

"etc."

Wang Yu called him and pointed to the opposite position: "Master, don't leave first. I have a few questions to ask you."

He said to Curran again: "Corran, be good, you should follow your master during this period and don't run around."

Yuan Tiangang sat down opposite her and stroked Kelan's back with his right hand: "You said."

Wang Yu first asked the question that made her curious: "Why did Dr. Zhang set those three rules?"

"Uh...it's about secrets, so wait for Older Zhang to tell you himself in the future."

"Then why did he ask me to take the Boy Clinic exam?" Wang Yu was very confused: "Even if he wanted me to be his apprentice, he could make other requirements. Why is this just the condition?"

"Uh..." Yuan Tiangang struggled for a moment and decided to reveal a little bit: "It was probably because his only son suddenly passed away the day before taking the Boys' Exam, so he was very persistent in Boys' Exam."

Yuan Tiangang suddenly stood up: "For the sake of your relationship between master and disciple, I will remind you that you should not mention his only son in front of Doctor Zhang.

"That's all, I will not disturb you from studying as a teacher."

Before he finished speaking, he hugged Curran and walked outside.

Wang Yu looked at the direction where he disappeared, thinking.

The reason why Doctor Zhang likes the handsome young man is probably because he remembers his only son's feelings...

----------

In the following days, Wang Yu stayed in the room to read books and recuperate.

After three days, her hearing returned to normal.

Daquan and others were very happy. Wang Kangda held a small family dinner as the owner of Li's mansion and invited Yuan Tiangang and Doctor Zhang.

Zuo Si immediately sent a message back to the Qin Palace to inform Changsun family of this good news.

As August begins, the date of the trial is coming.

At the entrance of the Gongyuan, Wang Kangda once again checked the examination tools for Wang Yu: "Master, bring this book with you, you see, they all brought it with you."

Wang Kangda handed over the letter and continued to recite: "I know you have a good memory, but just in case, I'd better bring it with me."

"No." Wang Yu snatched the book from him, and then handed it to Qiuyue.

The book Wang Kangda mentioned was "Qiyun", which was written by Lu Fayan of the Sui Dynasty. It reflected the pronunciation of Chinese at that time, which was a reference book.

Wang Yu naturally didn't need such reference books, so he didn't want to bring them in.

"Okay, I'll go in." Wang Yu took the thing from Wang Kangda's hand and walked towards the gate of the Gongyuan.

It was not until Wang Yu's back disappeared at the gate of the Gongyuan that Dr. Zhang, not far away, took his gaze back.

Yuan Tiangang couldn't help but tease, "I really wanted to send her away, but I insisted on not coming. I couldn't come after I said that, so I took me to the tribute court and hid beside me and watched secretly.

"You are really..."

Doctor Zhang didn't want to talk to him, so he turned around and left.

"Hey, aren't you guarding your apprentice outside the tribute courtyard?" Yuan Tiangang slowly chased after him.

Doctor Zhang glanced at him: "Isn't Qilang your apprentice?"

"It's right that I'm my apprentice, but I didn't let him take the exam."

"You..." Doctor Zhang was speechless for a moment.

Yuan Tiangang admired his crucified expression from the side and asked again: "Don't you really want to guard outside the Gongyuan?"

"If I don't go, I'm going back and make pills."

"What are you doing for pills?"

"Qilang has to stay in the Gongyuan for three days. He can't eat well and sleep well, so his health will recover. How can he withstand such troubles? If the ear disease recurs, they have to settle the score with me and call me a quack doctor. For my golden sign, I have to go back and make pills."

Doctor Zhang's tone was very angry, but the concern that appeared on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows was captured by Yuan Tiangang.

Looking at Doctor Zhang who was so hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, Yuan Tiangang was a little dazed for a moment. He hadn't seen Doctor Zhang like this for many years.

......

After Wang Yu entered the tribute school, he stood with all the candidates and waited for inspection.

The candidates were wearing single clothes, and the officials of the tribute school held bamboo rulers to check the candidates' bodies to see if there were any entrainments.

There are also officials next to check the tools they brought in. If they check that there are hidden personal entrapments, they will be confiscated.

Wang Yu was examined openly and observed the surrounding situation in his eyes.

At the end of this round of inspection, three people were checked and handwritten by the clerk.

The examiner Guo Xingfang called the three of them out of the line and gave a warning in public, and scolded them to make their faces turn red and their heads lowered in shame. He stopped.

"I think you are the first offender, so I will give you another chance and allow you to continue the exam."

Guo Xingfang said with a stern face: "If you cheat during the exam, you will be disqualified from the exam and will not be allowed to take all imperial examinations within three years."

After all, the three of them were young and were scolded in public and felt ashamed. They were naturally grateful to hear that they could continue the exam.

Everything is ready and the first round of exams begins - oral exams.

In a separate room, the chief examiner or deputy examiner shall specify an article in a certain book and ask the candidate to recite it, a total of ten articles.

Although the examiner and the two deputy examiners conducted oral examinations at the same time, they went in one after another, and this round of oral examinations took a day.

When reciting, Wang Yu was not a problem. She finished memorizing it in just two quarters of an hour. Her thinking was smooth, her tone was ups and downs, and she was not wrong with a word. Guo Xingfang secretly praised her.

After leaving the wing room, Wang Yu frowned slightly. The ancient imperial examinations did have many disadvantages...

After the oral exam, the candidates were taken to the number house.

The densely packed houses are arranged together, which is very spectacular. Each row of houses is arranged in the order of "Thousand Characters" and writes "a certain font size" on the lintel at the entrance of the alley, such as: the font size of the sky.

Each row of houses has different numbers. Some are fifty, some are sixty or more than one hundred, and they are lined up into a long alley to the south. The entrance of the alley is equipped with a number light and water tank, and there is a dressing room at the end of each row of houses.

Each house has four feet wide and five feet deep, the back wall is eight feet high, and the front eaves are about six feet high. A brick bracket is left on the brick walls on both sides of the house, which is about one foot away from the ground for the number shelving boards.

The number board consists of two wooden boards. If both boards are placed on the ground, they can be put together to cover the number house and become a bed. If the candidate needs to answer questions and write, move the number board on the outside to the brick support above. The number board inside does not move, and the candidate sits on the number board inside to answer questions and write.

"This is your account, go in." The little official stopped.
