    ?Stay in Shitang Town for two days, stop for a while when passing through the county, and you can see Tong's test release the next day.

    The delay for several days was not because Fengzhi County graded the papers too slowly, but because there were too many students taking the exam.  There was really no room in the test booth, and there were two batches of exams before and after the county exam, and the questions for each batch were different.

    In Qianshan County, which has a registered population of less than 20,000, more than 4,000 students participated in the county examination this time.

    Do you feel weird?

    There are two opinions in the historian circle: one holds that the Ming Dynasty Yellow Book only counts adult males; the other thinks that the Ming Dynasty Yellow Book only counts adult men and women.

    No matter what kind, children are not counted, even if they are settled.

    But something is still wrong, the ratio of school children to the registered population is still not right.

    hehe.

    The government's registered population is for the central court to see. It may not have changed for hundreds of years, and it has even been declining in Qianshan County.

    Just because the population increases, the total amount of taxes must also increase.  Firstly, it is not easy for magistrates to collect enough taxes, and secondly, the amount that magistrates can retain will be reduced, and local officials will only change their yellow books when their brains are flooded.

    When it comes to actually collecting taxes, it is another system.

    In the past, it relied on grain to grow, but now it relies on interior growth.  There is no need for a household registration booklet at all. People in the village who don¡¯t know each other have to pay taxes if they don¡¯t have the protection of a wealthy family.

    "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

    Although Fei Ruhe was young, he was considered to be physically strong, and he pushed the other students on the list all the way away.

    He walked to the bottom of the list and looked up¡ª¡ª

    First place, Fei Ruyu.

    The second place, Hu Zongru.

    Third place, Fei Kai.

    Fourth place: Fei Han.

    Keep watching and reading, and he won it by himself.

    117th place: Xu Ying.

    398th place: Fei Ruhe.

    A total of 400 schoolchildren were enrolled in the provincial examination list of Qianshan County, which is about one-tenth of the reference number!

    Under normal circumstances, only a few dozen are admitted in the county test, but that only applies to normal states and counties.

    The highest record in the north is in Ruyang, Henan Province. More than 8,000 people participated in a county examination, and about 800 were admitted.

    The highest record in the south is Linchuan, Jiangxi. More than 10,000 people participated in a county examination, and more than 1,000 people were admitted.

    The schoolchildren who took part in the county examination had a lot of water, and many of them came to experience the atmosphere.

    There is no quota, usually one out of ten, if there are too many people, let the prefect have a headache.

    "Father, I've passed, I've passed!" Fei Ruhe was ecstatic.

    Fei Yinghuan was expressionless: "If you pass it, you will pass it. You don't need to take the government test. You may not even understand the questions of the government test."

    Fei Ruhe still kept fantasizing: "If you are lucky, the magistrate will give it to you."

    Fei Yinghuan's face was very ugly, he gritted his teeth and said: "The magistrate is not as easy to talk to as the magistrate, and your father has no friendship with the magistrate!"

    Fei Ruhe immediately shut up.

    Zhao Han asked: "My lord, then I don't have to go to the government for a test?"

    "You can go, or not." Fei Yinghuan asked Zhao Han to decide for himself.

    Those who are admitted in the government examination are Tongsheng, and there is still no quota for the number of students, usually one of the two is chosen.  But if there are too many candidates, it is also possible to choose one of three, one of four, and one of five.

    The difficulty of Jiangxi's hell is first reflected in the government examination. Children who have passed the county examination must be eliminated by at least three quarters.

    In other provinces and counties, the admission rate of the government examination is about one-half.

    "Then I'd better not go." Zhao Han said with a smile.

    So what if you pass the government test?

    In the Taoist test, you have to frantically brush people, Jiangxi scholars are not so easy to test!  From the county test, the government test, to the Taoist test, the three hurdles add up, and the admission rate of scholars may be less than 1%.

    Next to the admission list, there are several model essays posted, and Zhao Han's essay is among them.

    A seventeen or eighteen-year-old schoolboy shook his head and praised repeatedly: "Every man is a teacher of the world, and a single word is the law of the world. It's really amazing! I wonder which child prodigy Fei Han is?"

    "Which one is Fei Han?"

    "Which Fei Han belongs to my Fei family? We must make friends."

    "It must be me, Chen Jiangfei!"

    "Nonsense, it must be me, Shitang Fei!"

    ""

    Zhao Han hurried away and quietly squeezed out of the crowd.

    Among the countless people who looked at the list, no one found out that his article was plagiarized.

    Fei Yinghuan returned to Hanzhu Academy and immediately ran to the library to find articles.

    ZhaoJiu Po ??said: "Go around the academy and ask, who knows where I can buy Du Fanchuan's anthology, I will give him five taels of silver. If anyone can write "A Fang Gong Fu" silently on the spot, I will give him twenty taels of silver  !"

    Jiu Po ??led away, and Fei Yinghuan continued to search for articles.

    After several days of searching in this way, of the more than 100 titles given by Zhao Han, only more than 70 were found in the library, including many articles by the Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties.

    Ask all the teachers and students of Hanzhu Academy, but no one can write "A Fang Gong Fu" silently.

    However, a teacher gave a clue that he had seen "Fan Chuan Anthology" in the library of Ouyang family in Taihe County.

    In order to ask for a complete "Ode to Efang Palace", Fei Yinghuan took out 50 taels of silver and said to Wei Jianxiong: "You and Qin Xin, go to Taihe County immediately, prepare gifts for your visit, and take my name card to pay a visit to Ouyang's family."  , Be sure to copy back "A Fang Gong Fu"!"

    Wei Jianxiong asked in surprise, "An article is fifty taels?"

    "It's worth it, one hundred taels is worth it," Fei Yinghuan said, "as long as you can bring the article back, no matter how much money you actually spend, the rest of the silver will belong to you."

    "Is there such a good thing?" Wei Jianxiong said happily, "Don't worry, my lord, this matter is on me."

    Qin Xin was also very happy. Wei Jianxiong was always forthright, and he would definitely get a lot of money if he went with him this time to do errands.

    Wei Jianxiong and Qin Xin left, and Fei Yinghuan continued to search hard for two days.

    Seeing that no more articles could be found, Fei Yinghuan had no choice but to go back home. He seemed to be pointing and said to Zhao Han: "Brother Han, your previous library must be much larger than mine."

    Zhao Han replied without changing his face, "My father liked to borrow books everywhere before he was alive."

    Fei Yinghuan thought for a while, then sighed and said, "Oh, I won't get to the bottom of it anymore, your ancestors must have extraordinary backgrounds. If you win the election in the future, you can change back to your original surname."

    "Thank you, my lord." Zhao Han cupped his hands and bowed.

    Some articles in "Guwen Guanzhi" are now either found in "Yongle Dadian" or lying in a certain family's library.

    Ordinary scholars, don't even think about contacting them for a lifetime.

    When Pang Chunlai learned of this, he came to visit Fei Yinghuan on the way, and asked Xu Ying to help transcribe a copy.

    There are more than 70 ancient essays, all of which are famous ones. Pang Chunlai had only read more than 20 of them before.

    It's not that I don't want to read it, it's just that I can't read it.

    After reading all these articles, Pang Chunlai called Zhao Han over: "Are these all given by your father?"

    "Yes." Zhao Han's face became thicker and thicker.

    Pang Chunlai joked: "Is your family a descendant of Zhao Song?"

    "No." Zhao Han flatly denied it.

    "It can be, it will be useful for rebellion in the future." Pang Chunlai said.

    ? Zhao Han laughed and said, "It's useless to play Zhao Song's banner. What's more, the rebellion depends on oneself. The princes and generals are kind."

    "Ha ha ha ha!"

    Pang Chunlai laughed loudly: "If you have ambition, that's what a man should do!" He asked again, "Aren't you going to take the government exam?"

    "Can I pass the exam?" Zhao Han asked back.

    "No." Pang Chunlai shook his head.

    Zhao Han, Xu Ying, and Fei Ruhe all passed the county examination, but none of them took the prefectural examination.

    Everyone knows the difficulty of the government test.
