Yao Jinrong tried to comfort himself, but he couldn't hide his growing panic and uneasiness.
The county magistrate, along with Jiao Yu and others, slowly patrolled the examination room, reading everyone's articles one by one.
"Both Xu Yincheng and Liu Yongfei have started writing. Xu Yincheng deserves to be familiar with the "Four Books", and his essay writing is very good."
"Liu Yongfei is also good. In addition to the content of the eight-legged essay, the handwriting is also extremely important! He practices regular script, and his gestures are strong and powerful, which is pretty good."
"Hey, is Xia Qingzhai in front of you? Why not go over and take a look."
"Okay hahaha..."
A few people pretended not to care and walked forward slowly. They passed by Yao Jinrong's room first. They frowned when they saw that he was sweating profusely and holding a pen in his hand, not writing a single word on the paper. .
"Isn't Yao Jinrong also the leader of the county examination that year? Why are you so panicked? They said before that Xia Qingzhai didn't study hard. Looking at his blank paper, it's obvious that he didn't study well!"
"Hey, I value him for nothing. It's a pity that he is so arrogant even though he has no ability."
"Go and see Xia Qingzhai."
Several people slowly approached Qingzhai's room, and the first thing they saw was a line of beautiful handwriting on the snow-white paper.
[Not following the rules, but relying on this understanding and cleverness.]
The teachings and teachings’ eyes lit up, this question is so clever!
As long as she doesn't write anything wrong in the follow-up, this broken question can give her a lot of points.
Then, they looked at Tong Su's handwriting, looked carefully, and their eyes widened in surprise.
This word -
This word turned out to be—
Taige style
Taige style is a special font that is popular in court and imperial examination halls. Memorials, official documents, and examination papers are all based on this font.
It is somewhat like regular script, but more serious and regular, with no changes between strokes. If there is any difference between it and regular script, it is that regular script has the unique style of the writer, with flexible changes between strokes, while Taige style has all the characters. Need to be consistent.
To put it simply, it is ancient printing style, which is for the convenience of everyone to read, rather than to show calligraphy.
Xia Qingzhai's Taige Style is incredible.
The characters are round and plump, straight, dark, dense, and smooth. There is no difference between the same characters at all, as if they were printed one by one with pottery movable type.
It looks pleasing to the eye.
Eight-part essays have strict specifications and attach great importance to fonts. The quality of the content is about the same, but good calligraphy can play a decisive role in the ranking!
The county magistrate, the edict, and others couldn't help but laugh, and their hearts were filled with joy.
Yunyang County really has a good seedling.
It seems that Xia Qingzhai has not been affected by too many family affairs, and his performance is still so steady - no, not just steady, but rising step by step!
After three years of waiting for the postgraduate examination, the examination will be taken in the provincial capital. Students from all over the province will gather together, and the examination will naturally be very difficult.
They were worried before that Yunyang County wouldn't be able to produce an amazing student, but now that they saw Xia Qingzhai, it was clear that he had great potential.
Maybe we can even fight for the solution...
The county magistrate was even more excited. He had been serving as Yunyang county magistrate for many years. If good candidates emerged from the provincial examination, he might be promoted to a higher-level official because of his "educational merit"...
Everyone left with their thoughts in mind. After patrolling the examination room, they just sat down to take a drink of water when the people below hurried over sweating profusely.
A great big shot from the capital city has just arrived at the county government office!
The county magistrate was so anxious that he almost jumped up: "Oh my God, why is that guy here again? Come on, follow me out to greet him!"
