This answer sheet is naturally Li Jin's.
The three main features of 'Guange Style' calligraphy are 'black, square and light'.
The direct translation of the black character is black. As the saying goes, 'the ink is light and hurts the spirit'.
However, Li Jin did not systematically learn the style of the pavilion when he came here. His current calligraphy was developed by himself over the years, so it is very similar to the style of the pavilion, but it is also slightly different.
Pang Lao pays attention to 'the ink is divided into five colors'. The first point of teaching Li Jin is that the thickness of the calligraphy ink must be adjusted with the change of the font.
Therefore, when Li Jin wrote 'Guange style', he did not blindly seek 'wu'.
Because if every stroke of the handwriting is very black, it will be dull and boring, and there is no sense of hierarchy.
It is precisely because Li Jin has practiced a lot, so he has a good grasp of the level. Turning over his answer sheet and looking at it, you will be deeply shocked.
And the examiner of the Hanlin Academy who was in charge of the transcription also realized that he had made a blunder after speaking. He was only in charge of the transcription and had no right to mark the papers.
Contrary to him, before the rankings of all the answer sheets have been roughly assessed, the examiners who graded the examination papers could not casually flip through the examinee answer sheets.
There are only so many examiners in the inner curtain. The junior examiners of the Hanlin Academy transcribe, and the chief examiners sit in the upper positions and drink tea to supervise them.
As soon as he said this, the examiner's eyes immediately fell on him.
"Be quiet, don't make noise."
"The subordinate knows it's wrong."
As for the examiners, as long as they don't cheat, the guards are very relaxed. If the candidates are making noise in the numbered room, they will definitely pull the person out and put them in the cell first.
As for the examiners, the guards just changed the positions of the examiners responsible for transcribing, so that the answer sheets they were responsible for transcribing were different, avoiding cheating.
Anyway, after they have finished transcribing, another examiner will check whether their transcription results correspond to the candidates' answer sheets one by one, and they are really rigorous and selfless.
For all Inner Curtain examiners, they were not allowed to take a step outside the Inner Curtain during the nine days of the exam and the 20 days after the grading.
In addition to transcribing and grading papers, each examiner eats and drinks in his own room every day.
Except for the examiners, everyone else even had to find a bodyguard to accommodate them when they took a hot bath, which was not much better than the candidates.
This is also to prevent the examiner from contacting the outside world and tampering with the grading when he receives news.
For the guards, regardless of their low status, the emperor ordered that if a cheating examiner can be caught, the guards can be promoted to three levels. And if they help the examiner cheat, the forty boards and exile are waiting for them.
Under the rules of heavy rewards and heavy punishments, the imperial examinations of the dynasty strictly adhered to the final line of fairness.
After all, the gap in background is already huge. Countless underprivileged children take the imperial examinations to stand out. If there is no fairness in the imperial examinations, how can this court be convincing.
The examiners who were transcribing changed their seats, and those who were named had no choice but to do so.
You must know that the person in charge of the transcription has no brazier at their feet. After all, they are surrounded by answer sheets. If they are burned, no one can afford this responsibility.
Therefore, they managed to sit on their stools to keep them warm, and now they have to move their nests, and strange things will happen if they wish.
Zhou Guangzhen is a Hanlin who was changed by 'involvement'.
As an examiner, he can wear a jacket, but for the convenience of copying, he can't wear it too thick.
There was no brazier at his feet, and cold was inevitable. He reluctantly sat on the seat of the Hanlin who had just spoken out, took another blank answer sheet, dipped his brush with ink, and began to take charge of the transcription.
When Zhou Guangzhen opened Li Jin's answer sheet and saw the fonts of the same size, square shape, and smooth and round strokes, she was also surprised.
If it weren't for the coldness in the process of 'moving the nest', he might have shouted 'I have never seen such beautiful words'!
Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help but look at every word carefully. He felt that every word was neat and fluent, and the strokes were in place, very disciplined, and looked pleasing to the eye.
He thought, "Good-looking is good-looking, but I can't see the character."
To see the character of the calligraphy, the most obvious is the edge of the brush. For example, 'hook', 'dot', 'skew', when writing, show the madness of the writer by closing the pen.
But Li Jin's words are very regular in these aspects, and people can't help but admire how neat and beautiful they are.
Therefore, Zhou Guangzhen will have the above emotion.
But when he started to transcribe, he found that the handwriting was not without character. Every vertical and horizontal line was extremely upright, and the handwriting was suitable for both shades of dryness and wetness.
Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help but banged on his head, and laughed at himself: "This is not the backbone, the whole article is the backbone of the person who answered the paper!"
This is also the reason why he was shocked when he saw it.
The style of the pavilion is superior to the regular script, but it cannot take off the shadow of the regular script. The regular script is originally about being neat and tidy.
As Hanlin, they had seen so many neat answer sheets and calligraphy, and they couldn't help but admire them just now, not only because of the neat handwriting throughout, but also because they couldn't pick out anything wrong.
- It turns out that the use of calligraphy by the respondents has already reached the point of perfection.
Zhou Guangzhen wanted to transcribe it slowly and taste this calligraphy work carefully... No, this answer sheet, but each Hanlin has a certain workload, so he still has to copy all the answer sheets within the stipulated time.
Therefore, he can only quickly transcribe.
Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help feeling a little regretful. He could see such a good word in his life, but he didn't have time to savor it.
What a pity in life.
But when he continued to transcribe it, Zhou Guangzhen found that not only the writing was good, but even the content was progressive and interlocking.
The ideas discussed by the respondents are novel and not detached from reality. If you think about it carefully, the possibility of its realization is very high.
Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help admiring it, if he wasn't afraid of losing his black gauze cap, he really wanted to open the seal and see who this answer sheet came from.
Such talent is rare in life.
It's a pity that Zhou Guangzhen was cowardly, he didn't dare to do it.
He could only copy it silently, and reluctantly put the answer sheet on top of the stack that had been copied, and then it was taken away by the guards.
Zhou Guangzhen was able to become a Hanlin and was one of the examiners in this exam.
He was a jinshi who was born in the top two six years ago, and he is the youngest among all the jinshis. He has never admired him so much even with the champion of the year.
Now, he admires this unmasked person very much.
Zhou Guangzhen thought that if the chief examiner of the Ministry of Rites thought the same as him, then there was an 80% chance that this person would become Hui Yuan, and he would be able to know who this person was.
Thinking of this, Zhou Guangzhen couldn't help but be very grateful to the one who spoke up before. He moved his nest willingly, otherwise, how could he have the opportunity to transcribe such an answer sheet.
And the Hanlin who spoke up before raised his head and caught a glimpse of the excitement and admiration in Zhou Guangzhen's eyes, and his guts turned blue with regret.
Why can't he be calm!
The examiners worked overtime for half a night, and Li Jin got up just as early as Yin Shi, ready to take the second exam.
After the first experience, Li Jin saw the bath to check his body again, and his acceptance level was also higher.
The second session mainly examines policy questions. Different from writing articles in the first session, policy questions are translated as short answer questions.
The second session is divided into five policy questions, each of which consists of several small questions, which can be roughly divided into exegesis, water conservancy, military system, national strategy, and so on.
The translation of exegesis into vernacular is the interpretation of nouns. The main purpose is to explain the meaning of words, phonology, grammar, rhetoric and so on.
Exegesis questions do not account for a small proportion of the entire exam, because most people can write them accurately.
However, if this game falls off the chain, it will affect the ranking evaluation of the entire meeting.
The water conservancy, military system, etc. are all very different from the previous exams. Since Wanyun participated in the general exam last year, the exam questions are not only 'how to improve the water conservancy system', but add math problems into it.
For example, Wan Yun told Li Jin that he would take the test at the time of 'how many stones and soil are needed to control the flood'.
This requires students to have a good understanding of the annual rainfall, the height of the river bed, etc. in order to answer.
Li Jin finished writing the exegesis question, and when he saw the water conservancy calculation question, he was already prepared and began to make a draft calculation.
After a while, the man next door seemed to have done the same, and Li Jin even heard him shout, "It's over."
The recent topics have indeed become more and more tricky, but they have also become more realistic, so that those who only know how to play tricks no longer have the opportunity to opportunistically.
The third exam is the time policy. At the end of the answer sheet, there are also fu and poems. Li Jin has not studied much about poetry. After writing the draft of the time policy, he first writes the poems and then transcribes them.
The nine-day spring season ended with Li Jin finishing his poems.
He walked to the door of the house, and the little bun slammed into his arms like a small cannonball. Li Jin handed the book basket to Xiao Cha, and then picked up the little bun.
Baozi grabbed Li Jin's ear with his hand, only to feel that his hand was cold.
He hugged Daddy's neck directly, and his little head was rubbing against Daddy, "Baozi keeps Daddy warm."
The first two times Li Jin came back very tired, and he had to prepare for the next day's exam. Qin Muwen didn't let the steamed buns pester Daddy.
The little buns felt that this little stove was incompetent.
Li Jin carried him back to the house, Qin Muwen came in with ginger soup, "Dispel the cold."
Li Jin was hit by the two 'sugar-coated cannonballs' and rubbed his head one by one.
In fact, Qin Muwen originally wanted to hire someone to give Li Jin a cape, so that Li Jin could wear it directly after the exam.
But this time, there are more than 4,000 candidates, and countless people outside the examination room are waiting to give capes to their young masters, and often no one can be found.
When there is time to find someone, Li Jin can come back.
Qin Muwen thought about it, and it was the same reason.
Therefore, he stayed at home to cook ginger soup for Li Jin.
At the end of the general examination, the rankings will be released in mid-March, and this year's new Ke Gongyuan (the juren of the general examination in the examination) can basically participate in the palace examination.
After the palace test, one can be called a jinshi.
In the dynasty of Li Jin, as long as he participated in the palace examination, unless Gong Yuan made a great mistake, such as signing up for replacement, in general, His Majesty would grant him the title of Jinshi.
It is only that the jinshi are divided into three top grades, the first grade and three people are called jinshi and the second; the second grade is about 30 to 40 people, who are called jinshi origin; the rest are all three top grades, called the same jinshi origin.
After the real exam, Li Jin felt a lot more relaxed, and he felt that he was a little bearish on the ranking.
Like now, every day I go to the Ministry of Industry for research, answering questions and solving doubts, and every day I will have new harvests.
The next day, colleagues in the Ministry of Industry were surprised when they saw Li Jin appear.
"Sir, why don't you take a few days off?"
"Look at this ignorant person, and he still hasn't brought a stool."
"I'll pour some tea."
Master Yuanwailang of the Shimizu Metropolitan Government Department was discussing something with Zhu Shan, but when they saw this scene, they just smiled and didn't stop it.
Yuan Wai Lang knew how arrogant the officials of their Ministry of Industry were outside, and Li Jin was also really capable, and he didn't hide his knowledge in order to be so respected by others.
Zhu Shan looked at his friend and said with a smile, "You are not treated like this."
Yuan Wai Lang sighed: "In a few years, I may have to call him an adult."
Apart from Wan Yun, Li Jin did not tell anyone that he did not plan to join the official post. After all, what should His Majesty think when the word spread out
Although Li Jin doesn't care about his reputation, he can't put his future to death either.
He wants to do practical things, but the back-and-forth of officialdom is not suitable for him.
Li Jin had a good life at the Qingli Division in Dushui, while Zhou Guangzhen, a Hanlin man, was expecting that he would be able to transcribe Li Jin's answer sheet.
It's a pity that things backfired, and no one was as good at writing as Li Jin when the answer sheet was assigned to him.
At this point, part of the answer sheet has been transcribed, and the examiners who graded the answer sheet also began to comment on each answer sheet.
