Miss Fortune: Is the regent ready for today?

Chapter 329: Historical Commentary

It's just a long recitation.

Yu Ruyi was lying on the door, trying to get a glimpse of the courtyard through the gap, but the two double wooden doors were tightly closed, and the remaining gap between the arches was too tight to accommodate his gaze.

Chi Linjing rarely approached Yu Ruyi and seemed to be very interested in the scene in the courtyard.

Yin Luo looked at the two people who were working in vain. After thinking for a moment, she turned to look at the top of the gray wall behind the magnolia tree. With a thought in her mind, she used Qing Kung Fu to fly straight to the wall, climbed to the eaves of the side room connecting the school, lowered her figure and exposed half of her head to look at the yard.

Yu Ruyi and Chi Linjing, who noticed the fluctuations in zhenqi, looked towards her. The young man in white's eyes lit up, showing an expression of surprise like "Why didn't I expect that?" He didn't say much after that, he just used his kung fu to fly towards the wall, and stopped on Yin Luo's left side without forgetting to give her a thumbs up.

The young man in green robe was left standing there with his arms crossed and frowning. The girl in red and the boy in white seemed to be accustomed to lying on other people's walls? The two of them acted so naturally, and they communicated with their eyes from time to time, not knowing what they were seeing.

He lowered his eyes and instinctively couldn't move his legs. A mountain of identity weighed on his shoulders, making him look rather pretentious.

Indeed, he does not want to be an emperor, he likes the world, and he longs for a free and easy life. But he is also the regent of Southern Xia. He did something like leaning on someone's wall in Daliang and peeking in. No matter how you think about it, it is beneath his status, right?
Seeing that he hadn't moved for a long time, Yin Luo turned to look back at him in confusion.

Qingpao stood under the wall with a look of disgust, as if she disapproved of them leaning against the wall, which made her very unhappy.

Golden needles and red silk came out suddenly, binding Chi Linjing's wrist.

Yin Luo wrapped his arms around him, his true energy lost its strength, and forcefully pulled him one step closer to the gray wall.

The young man in green robe frowned at her and shook his head slightly.

Yin Luo rolled his eyes, put away the needle and no longer cared about him, but in his heart he was thinking about what words to use to ridicule him when he went back.

What happened to leaning against the wall? This move does not violate Daliang's laws at all, okay?

If they break in, they will be considered as trespassing. If they lie here for a while, they can at most rest!
As soon as the idea came to fruition, an indistinguishable voice sounded in the courtyard: "I am in the sea of ​​​​learning, with only pen and paper as my boat, today's paper begins."

A figure suddenly flashed on the right, and the next second, Qingpao stopped beside her, looking into the house following her and Yu Ruyi's gaze.

Yin Luo let out a light "bang". What's there to be hesitant about? Isn't this already the case?
It is said that the people living in Dangchun Alley are poor families. The houses here are much older than those in other streets and alleys in Ningcheng. This is true along the way. But when the three of them saw clearly the structure inside the Fengfutang courtyard, they couldn't help but frown.

This courtyard is not spacious. If you compare it carefully, the area is not even as big as a side courtyard of Yin Mansion. It is close to the surrounding neighboring houses. There are several corners in the northeast. There is a small house built with earth and wood, and the roof is tiled. It was covered with mud and hung with two red lanterns.

There are dozens of tables and chairs in the courtyard, and the workmanship is average. From the perspective of the three of them, it was densely packed with scholars of similar age in coarse linen clothes, each holding a book and reading attentively.

"These should be civilian students preparing for the Daliang Chunwei exam next year, right?" Yu Ruyi lowered her voice.

Yin Luo nodded and looked for the young scholar he had met in the Pingdu dungeon for a long time, but found nothing. They were lying next to the east wall, and the courtyard faced north and south, which meant that she could clearly see the profiles of everyone in the courtyard. "Are we overthinking this? This is just an ordinary private academy in Ningcheng? I looked at them one by one. Is there any little scholar who is delivering messages in the Pingdu dungeon?"

Qingpao lay among the scattered tiles, squinting his eyes and looking around, "Why can't you see the person who made the noise just now?"

Yu Ruyi glanced at him, "Do you suspect that the person who made the noise is the scholar that my sister has met? You should help my sister find it together. Didn't you also draw portraits for others? My sister has been unable to use her eyesight since she was a child. So, There are so many people that she can’t see, can you see if there are any?”

Yin Luo exhaled, glared at Yu Ruyi, stretched out his fist and pretended to hit him.

Qingpao spoke again, attracting the attention of the two fighting men: "Didn't you hear what the man said just now?"

Yu Ruyi scratched the back of her head: "Are you in Xuehai?"

Yin Luo thought thoughtfully: "A boat made of paper and pen?"

Chi Linjing sighed and put his forehead to the center of his eyebrows, "Paper essay! A word commonly used by the invigilators of the Daliang imperial examination system. In layman's terms, it means the history written examination."

Yu Ruyi opened her lips slightly and rolled her eyes, not wanting to admit her ignorance in front of Chi Linjing.

Yin Luo was more open-minded, "Why would I know? I am a woman, and I am in the world. I am a martial arts master, escorting escorts and delivering goods. Things like the imperial examination have nothing to do with me. I am not like you. Hold the book and study the beams every day."

Chi Linjing took a deep breath and forced a smile, "That's right."

Yu Ruyi hurriedly dropped the topic and asked Chi Linjing: "You mean, that person has connections with Daliang officials?"

Yin Luo was the first to disagree: "Don't today's private schools all like to follow this rhetoric? The imperial examination system in Daliang has been followed to this day. That person said that maybe to make it sound more high-end. It's not a big deal, right?"

Young Master Qingpao stared at her for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's really a big deal. As you said, the imperial examination system in Daliang has been continued to this day, but the term "juan" has not been passed down. When I reformed the Nanxia Academy, I studied it specially. The academic system of Daliang. As recorded in the book, most of the spring and autumn examinations of Daliang tested literary skills, which covered four categories: poetry, classics, policy questions, and sacred edicts. Later, after changes, a history review course was added. , it is said that it is an additional item specially created for students from poor families. You two should know that there is a huge difference between the children of noble officials and the children of common people in Daliang. Those who are currently being ennobled in the court must have family backgrounds close to them. "

Yu Ruyi nodded when he heard the words, "That's true! When I was in Gushan, I also heard my seniors mention that the three countries in the world all adhere to the inheritance system, and Daliang is the worst. It is extremely difficult for civilians to become officials. Twenty years ago , our Yu family once had a young man who hid his identity and participated in the imperial examination system in the name of a descendant of the common people, but was undoubtedly rejected. And the next year, he applied for the examination in the name of the Yu family, and was assigned to the Ministry of Rites in high school! Unfortunately, he Because of these two differences, I became disgusted with the imperial court and returned to Gushan to farm..."

Yin Luo glanced at Yu Ruyi, then looked at Chi Linjing, and asked: "How long has the term juran existed in the history of Daliang imperial examinations?"

Chi Linjing lowered his eyes and recalled for a moment, then firmly answered: "Less than three years."

She frowned when she heard this. In her impression, Yin Jielin seemed to have participated in the reform of Daliang's academic system?

Yu Ruyi asked what she wanted to ask: "What about the specific time? Which year is it?" (End of Chapter)
