Chapter Nineteen
It's really a genius! The inspector and the deputy examiner both secretly praised him, thinking that Ye Xingyuan was really amazing. If the article had the corresponding level of writing, it would definitely stand out in the county, and the head of the case should be his. But they dare not say this, for fear that it would touch the bad-faced county Zhou Zhixian's bad luck.
Huang Dianli's face twitched slightly. He was also a person who had read books. Ye Xingyuan's talent was even more unexpected. This dictation was actually very good. It was rare in the lowest-level examination in the county exam.
Under normal circumstances, as long as Ye Xingyuan’s article is not off topic or black, a child will be stable. Fortunately, he is prepared and must not let this person leap over the dragon gate!
After everyone finished Ye Xingyuan's test paper, Huang Dianli suddenly lowered his voice and silently finished it. "I heard that this boy was quite eye-catching by Juren Ouyang. He should have good virtues, right?"
Hearing the four words "Ouyang Juren", Zhou Zhixian seemed to be indifferent. He was more cunning than Huang Dianli and had no expression, but the examiners could see that the county magistrate was already unhappy, so they could only sigh for Ye Xingyuan secretly.
How did this young man hate Huang Dianli? At this time, he was slandered, which made Zhou Zhixian annoyed. Not to mention that the case could not be preserved, even the qualification of a child was in danger.
Nowadays, who in the county does not know that Zhou Zhixian and Ouyang Juren have a tense relationship? Since this young man was the one who was Ouyang Juren, Zhou Zhixian would not let him get the case. Anything wrong with the article will be knocked out.
The selection of materials for the imperial examination is of great significance to the inheritance of the destiny tradition. It is strict from top to bottom. Fraud was discovered in the examination room. Those without officials were killed in the whole family, and those with officials fell to the ground with black veil and heads.
However, the examiner has his own subjective emotions in the exam, and the resonance of the secrets will not be accurate enough to automatically rank the rankings. Therefore, the examiner can still dismiss the test papers that can be taken or not, and as long as he does not do too much, he will not be punished.
Now the other examiners are inevitably guessing that the county magistrate acts sharply and stubbornly, and it is really possible that Ye Xingyuan, who should be admitted, will be dismissed from the original intention of taking materials for the imperial examination.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ye Xingyuan took a child like a child to take a baby, but the final admission quota is still in the hands of County Magistrate Zhou.
If the county magistrate is talented, and Ye Xingyuan is supported by Ouyang Juren, and with talented person, he is definitely capable of making things worse.
At that time, the magistrate will certainly be reprimanded, but with the support of his personality and political achievements, there will be no major problems. The emperor of a county cannot handle it so casually. However, they, such deputy examiners and invigilators, may be implicated and unlucky, or even lose points from Tianji, which is a pity.
Ye Xingyuan also felt that he performed well. He looked at the candidates around him who were still writing hard and were in a happy mood. He took the white flour meat patties from the basket, heated them on the stove in the examination room, and ate them cleanly. He stopped after he was full.
The candidates of "neighbors" were still gritting their teeth and recalling the classics and writing silences. Suddenly, they smelled the fragrance of food and their stomachs were rumbling. But at this time, they were in a state of turmoil, so how could they have to eat? They were silently cursing a leisurely guy in their hearts.
After eating, the afternoon test questions were still not issued. Ye Xingyuan saw that it was still early, so he simply lay on the table to take a nap to regain his energy.
Ye Xingyuan was sleeping comfortably at this time. I wondered that a group of fair examiners were already worried about his quota for child students. When the test questions were posted in the afternoon, he stretched and opened them to check.
The question for this exam is called "Ask the Way".
This question is quite concise, but it really seems to be planned by Zhou Zhixian County. Ye Xingyuan had heard of the virtues of the county magistrate from Ouyang Juren. He was blindly required to behave properly and unwilling tolerate everything. He also cooperated with this test question.
So I have practiced this kind of question in the past. Although I have not taken any time to prepare this time, there are several articles available in my belly.
He was not anxious at the moment. He spread the test papers, grind them thickly, calmed his spirit and closed his eyes and thought for a while, and then gathered his spiritual power and calmly wrote. Writing an article is different from silence. Writing a silence does not require traction and resonance, but writing an article is the opposite.
The inspectors quietly walked to the examination room and peeked at Ye Xingyuan with the light from the corner of their eyes. Their hope now is that Ye Xingyuan wrote a reproachable article like the morning dictation. Even if the county magistrate deliberately made things difficult for him, he would not be able to erase him. Only in this way can he be fine is a blessing.
Who knew that when the examiner saw that Ye Xingyuan's pen tip had just touched the surface of the roll, he suddenly paused and froze in the air, leaving a very large ink dot on the surface of the roll.
What is this problem? The inspector of the inspection site was shocked and wanted to get closer and take a closer look, but County Magistrate Zhou's eyes swept to this side. He felt relieved and walked hurriedly.
Ye Xingyuan was stunned for a while, pulled the white paper in front of him, kneaded it into a ball, and threw it into the trash can.
He unfolded another piece of paper, his wrist trembled, and wrote eight elegant small blue fly calligraphy on the paper in one go, "Who preached at the beginning of Sui'an ancient times?"
After writing the eight characters, Ye Xingyuan stopped writing again and frowned. When he finished writing, he could not sense the secret of heaven at all, as if he had just passed by, and before he had copied the tip of the universe, he was incompatible with the whole world!
How is this possible? During this period of time, his hard work has been copied, and his spiritual power has been greatly improved. Even Ouyang Juren was quite amazed. His ability to understand Tianji is already very familiar. Anyone who writes casually without deliberately concentrating spiritual power can pick it up and pull Tianji.
And now it is like there is a power between heaven and earth, which separates his writing from the secret of heaven and cannot be touched!
Someone was still making a fool! Ye Xingyuan realized this and suddenly looked up, looking at Huang Dianli, who was also patrolling the field not far away. Except for Huang Dianli, who was responsible for the examination, no one would deliberately target him! Unexpectedly, he was cautious and finally got into Dao'er. All kinds of strange magical powers in this world are simply unpredictable!
Ye Xingyuan restrained his urge to stand up and shout and question, because the rules of the examination room are in the hands of others! If he makes a big fuss and argues with reason, he may be kicked out on the spot by the county magistrate on the charge of "disturbing the imperial examination room for noisy examination room", and perhaps he can be deprived of his qualification for the exam for several years, which would be depressed.
What exactly is the problem?
First of all, you can rule out your own physical reasons. Ye Xingyuan has completely recovered. He wrote an essay at Ouyang Juren's house last night and this morning, and could easily attract the secrets of heaven and the paper was full of inspiration. This means that someone was tampered with in this examination room.
The most questionable one is of course Huang Dianli. Could it be that he used his position to seal the secrets of the examination room by using his vicious means? It is not uncommon for this method to be found in the Yin Shen Method.
If this is true, it seems that only by breaking the ban head-on! Ye Xingyuan couldn't help but remember that the battle between him and Yu Xiucai's fame was to rely on the sword spirit to break Yu Xiucai's magical powers in the front.
Others don’t know that they have the secret weapon of the Sword Spirit. As the name suggests, the word "Breaking" is used to break various magical powers. After resting for so long, you should be able to show your power once today, right?
Ye Xingyuan calmed down and took another piece of white paper, hurriedly wrote a few words, and then put them aside.
He pulled out the white paper continuously, wrote only one beginning on it and gave up. Although his movements were rapid, he was not messy at all, as if he was intentional.
"What is Ye Xingyuan doing?" The person who noticed Ye Xingyuan's movement was extremely curious and wanted to walk over and see what the kid was thinking in person.
Does he really think that the county exam room is a joke, so he is just writing poetry? He put it down with a few short words on each piece of paper. Others really can't think of any other explanation. Even though Ye Xingyuan's poems are famous, it has to be seen when it comes to the occasion.
If you write poems on the test paper, it will be inconsistent with the rules and will inevitably be dismissed.
The two examiners couldn't help but talk, "Ye Xingyuan might be drafting, and each article starts well or is not satisfied. This is why he can't choose for the moment, right?"
"Not necessarily." The other person shook his head. Looking from a distance, he saw Ye Xingyuan thrown on the white paper next to him as if there was no trace of inspiration, obviously he had never sensed the secret.
This is just a few numbers. For ordinary candidates, it is normal to not resonate with the secrets of heaven. But for a "talented man" like Ye Xingyuan, it is not normal. Is it because he cannot even write several beginnings to trigger the secrets of heaven, so he is constantly changing?
Ye Xingyuan's anger continued to rise. He was indeed changing constantly, and he still couldn't sense the secrets of heaven. The top of the examination room was like a thick turtle shell pressed upside down on his head, allowing his spiritual power to separate from the world. How can I continue to do this article?
