"Father? Mother? Master?"
At the foot of Yunshan Mountain, Chen Shuozhen was imagining the beautiful life after being admitted to Yanhuang Academy. After hearing what Chen Shuoyu said, her bright face couldn't help but show a little sadness, because she thought of her deceased parents and master!
For two little girls of seven or eight years old, losing their parents is already a very painful thing, but this year they lost their master again. They all say, "Once a teacher, always a father." This is equivalent to another Experienced the pain of losing a loved one!
This is not cruel to the two sisters!
Fortunately, after they arrived in Chang'an City, they met noble people one after another, and their situation gradually improved!
"Father, mother, master, don't worry, I will definitely take Xiaoyu to live a good life in the capital~!"
Chen Shuoyu raised his head, looked at the clouds in the sky, and said firmly.
On July 15, the second year of Zhenguan, the first empress in Chinese history made a "big wish" at the foot of Yunshan Mountain to "live her own life in the capital"!
"Okay! It's getting late! I should go up the mountain! Xiaoyu, just wait under the shade of the tree and I will take you back with me after I finish the exam~! Don't run around~!"
"Yeah! Sister, you will definitely pass the exam~!"
Chen Shuoyu raised his little head, responded crisply, and then watched Chen Shuozhen leave.
"Dang Dang Dang~!"
Not two moments later, the bells and drums on Yunshan Mountain rang again, heralding the official start of the second admissions examination of Yanhuang Academy.
Over at the engineering examination room, the afternoon test subject is arithmetic, accounting for 50% of the total score. The proportion can be said to be quite high, so all the candidates attach great importance to it, and they have been preparing for the exam for almost a year. They are all used to learn the new arithmetic of Yanhuang Academy!
However, this year's arithmetic test questions are overall much more difficult than last year's, because last year, from the time Li Zexuan announced the establishment of Yanhuang Academy in the "Datang Daily" to the time when the academy held its admissions exam at the end of July, it only took three or four months to get a full score. time, that is to say, excluding the time for information transmission, the average preparation time for candidates is definitely less than three months!
It takes more than two months at most for one person to complete the introduction to arithmetic. If you want someone to become proficient in arithmetic directly, it would be too much!
Therefore, in last year's college admissions exam, 80% of the questions in the arithmetic section were basic questions, with only the last question being somewhat difficult, which was used to create a gap between the students.
But this year is different. Candidates who took the Yanhuang Academy admissions exam this year generally spent more than half a year preparing for the exam. Many people had already started preparing for this year's admissions exam just after the Yanhuang Academy admissions exam last year. .
In addition, at the beginning of this year, Li Er personally issued an order to order all schools and government offices in various states and counties in the Tang Dynasty to use new arithmetic and new accounting methods. For a time, the entire Tang Dynasty set off a craze for learning new arithmetic. The arithmetic level of Tang people has also been generally improved!
Last year, if you had asked ten people on the street to add, subtract, multiply, and divide, no one would have known it, but now, seven out of ten people would probably be able to answer it!
Therefore, based on this situation, the difficulty of the math questions this time is much higher than last year. There is no scoring question on the test paper, and each question requires some effort to solve correctly! This not only allows the candidates to widen the gap in scores, but also tests the overall arithmetic level of the people of Datang!
Once the overall difficulty of the test paper increased, Lin Hao was so happy, because he was counting on using his math scores to widen the gap with other students in total scores!
You must know that Lin Hao is the most confident in his arithmetic, and he learned all his arithmetic from Tie Dan. Tie Dan's arithmetic scores are among the best in the entire academy. Can the "students" he teaches be inferior? ? Under the problem-solving tactics provided by Tiedan, Lin Hao's current arithmetic level is considered to be at the upper level even for a second-year college student!
Now among these candidates, Lin Hao is basically invincible in arithmetic!

As for the medical school, the afternoon exam is mainly about identifying medicinal materials on the spot. On the podium of each examination room, five medicinal materials will be presented every two quarters of an hour. Each medicinal material will have a label. Candidates in the examination room line up according to the Pass through the podium in order and identify the five medicinal materials placed on the podium. Each student has a very limited time to stand on the podium. Once the time is up, he will be ordered to return to his seat and write the identification results according to the labels of the medicinal materials. On the answer sheet.
Then after two quarters of an hour, the podium will be replaced with another five kinds of medicinal materials, and students will be asked to line up on the podium to identify them. In this way, there will be a total of eight groups in the entire exam, that is, forty kinds of medicinal materials that the students will need. The invigilator will supervise the process of identifying, identifying and answering papers to prevent candidates from communicating with each other and cheating!
This assessment method is, on the one hand, to test students' cognitive ability about medicinal materials, and on the other hand, it is also meant to test students' memory. After all, students have to look at five medicinal materials every time, and you have to remember what each medicinal material corresponds to. labels, otherwise even if you know all the medicinal materials, it will be in vain if you get the wrong label when writing the answer!
"No. 1 is Pinellia ternata, No. 2 is Piper longum, No. 3 is Lobelia, No. 4 is Hedyotis diffusa, and No. 5 is red peony root!"
After the first round of identification, Chen Shuozhen returned to her seat. She closed her eyes and meditated for a moment before starting to write.
"Hehe! Fortunately, they are all common medicinal materials. Master has taken us into the mountains to collect them before. As long as we don't get some rare medicinal materials that I have never seen before, I will definitely be fine for this afternoon's exam!"
After writing the answers, the next round of identifying medicinal materials had not yet come. Chen Shuozhen breathed a sigh of relief and thought happily in his heart.
And things are developing in the direction she expected.
"No. 6 is grass black leaves, No. 7 is rushes, No. 8 is tangerine peel, No. 9 is toad venom, and No. 10 is gallbladder! Great, this group contains some common medicinal materials again!"
With the second round of identification of medicinal materials completed, Chen Shuozhen was completely relieved.
Most of the examination questions in the medical school were written by Sun Simiao. Sun's medical skills had reached an advanced level. In his eyes, everything could be used as medicine. Based on this, when Sun Simiao treats people, he doesn't like to prescribe expensive medicinal materials. As long as it does not affect the efficacy of the prescription, he will replace the expensive medicinal materials with ordinary medicinal materials, because in his opinion, this is the most effective medicine. A place where a doctor’s ability is tested!
Therefore, in the second examination of the medical school, there were no rare medicinal materials that were rarely seen by ordinary people. On the one hand, it was to test the candidates' basic skills, and on the other hand, Sun Simiao wanted to convey his treatment philosophy to the students!

"Dang Dang Dang~!"
The two-hour examination time is not long, not long, not short. When the sun sets in the west, a melodious sound of bells and drums comes from the clouds, heralding the official conclusion of the Yanhuang Academy admissions examination in the second year of Zhenguan. Curtain.
"Oh~! The exam is over! The exam is finally over!"
“This year’s math test questions are too difficult!”
"That's right! It's much harder than last year!"
"Alas! I didn't even have time to do the last big question!"
"Brother Chu, you only missed one question? I didn't finish two questions! It's over, it's over! You will definitely fail the exam now!"
"The exams are over, what are you talking about? How about we go to Baihua House for a drink tonight and get drunk and relieve all our worries?"
"Let's go together! We'll get over it after getting drunk! At worst, we'll take the exam again next year!"
"That's right, that's right. The worst thing is, I'll take the exam again next year!"
"Hey! Look over there!"
"Wow~~!"
The candidates who had just walked out of Guanghua Building after handing in their test papers couldn't help but chatting together. Regardless of whether they did well or poorly, the test was over now anyway. Everyone wanted to relax, and many people even more so. Threaten to go drink flower wine! In this era, drinking flower wine is not a shameful thing. It is normal for scholars to be romantic. As long as you don't go too far, no one will give you any advice. In the middle of the commotion, the crowd suddenly became quiet. Everyone turned their attention to the west and saw a group of girls dressed in red and green walking towards the gate of the academy.
"Hey! Isn't that a female candidate for medical school?"
Someone said something, and the crowd became lively again.
"That's right! I saw them when I entered the examination room in the morning!"
"Tsk tsk! Yanhuang Academy is so special, it actually allows women to enter the academy!"
"Hehe! It should be said that the students of Yanhuang Academy are blessed now! Green mountains and green waters, accompanied by beautiful women, and red sleeves add fragrance. Where can you find such a good learning environment in the entire Tang Dynasty!"
My fair lady, what a gentleman! As soon as this sentence came out, there was a burst of wolf howling:
"Hmph! I have decided! If I don't get admitted to Yanhuang Academy this time, I will continue to take the exam next year. I will definitely get admitted to Yanhuang Academy!"
"Me too! Even if I get old, I still have to get admitted to Yanhuang Academy!"
"Hey! What are you thinking about? I heard from my dad that the medical school will have an independent courtyard in the future, separate from the engineering college, just like the Imperial Medical Office in Chang'an City! Students from the engineering college are not allowed to enter on weekdays. !”
At this time, someone couldn't help but pour cold water on me.
I heard this because I came from an official family and knew some inside information. As the academy's reputation has spread far and wide over the past year, there are many children of high-ranking officials and nobles among those who participated in this admissions examination. It is not surprising that some people know the inside information!
As soon as this statement came out, there was a cry of mourning.
"Ah? Is there such a thing? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Oh! If I had known I would have learned medical skills from others in advance!"
"Why?"
"If I know how to do medicine, I can take the medical school exam and enter medical school!!"
"..."
"High! Really high! If I fail the exam this time, I will go home to study medicine!"
