had the concern, the food eats to half of times, suddenly puts down the tableware, looks at Tang Ning, said: „Tries about this time state, has a matter, I just learn today.” 钟明礼似乎一直有心事,饭吃到一半的时候,忽然放下碗筷,看着唐宁,说道:“关于这次的州试,有件事情,我今天刚刚得知。” By the table everyone's line of sight looked to Zhong Mingli. 桌旁所有人的视线都望向了钟明礼。 „News that spreads from Capital, royal government regarding preliminary examination, as if has overhauled, some rumors said that starting from this year, every state tries and above, lacks testing for no reason, regards as despises the imperial civil service examination, for successive three times, can not refer again.” “从京都那边传来的消息,朝廷对于科考,似乎又有所改制,有传言称,自今年起,凡州试及以上,无故缺考者,视为藐视科举,连续三届,不得再参考。” Can be permitted the reason that lacks tests, definitely excluding losing recalled. 能够被允许缺考的缘故,肯定不包括失忆。 For successive three times, that was three years three years three years. 连续三届,那就是三年三年又三年。 Almost ten years cannot participate in the state to try, some complexion blanches of Su Ru and Zhong Yi. 差不多十年不能参加州试,苏如和钟意的面色都有些发白。 „Although is only the rumor, but does not fear 10,000, feared that...... Zhong Mingli visits him by some chance”, said: „Therefore, this state tries time, you must participate, even if fails an admissions examination, cannot take part in a test to be better compared with ten years.” “虽然只是传言,但不怕一万,就怕万一……”钟明礼看着他,说道:“所以,这一次的州试,你还得参加,即便是落榜,也比十年不能参试要好。” He looks at Tang Ning earnestly, said: „Considers to try.” 他认真的看着唐宁,说道:“就当是试试吧。” The state tries is the first pass/test of official imperial civil service examination, failing an admissions examination in the following two years, needs after to take a test several times, can regain the state trial qualifications. 州试是正式科举的第一关,落榜者在接下来的两年内,需要经过数次考试,才能重新获得州试的资格。 Does not participate in state to try a time fortunately, if did not participate for successive four times, small such as will be very sad, Zhong Yi will

salt fish...... 而且也会暴露他不想参加科举,自暴自弃、自甘堕落、自愧不如、不能自拔……,暴露他是一条咸鱼的事实…… About evaded, Tang Ning thinks, said: „That tries......” 左右都避不过了,唐宁想了想,说道:“那就试试吧……” „Is a test, rather the son you do not need extremely to care.” Chen Yuxian visits him, comforts saying: „Your father-in-law participated in three states to try to enter the province in the past continuously to try.” “不过就是一场考试,宁儿你也不必太过在意。”陈玉贤看着他,安慰道:“你岳父当年可是连续参加了三次州试才进入省试的。” Zhong Mingli puts down the chopsticks, some complexion non- natures, said: „Why you said this matter......” 钟明礼放下筷子,脸色有些不自然,说道:“你说这件事情干什么……” Chen Yuxian has not paid attention to him, looks at Tang Ning, said with a smile: „Has not related, even failed an admissions examination, we prepare well, three years later can also start over from the beginning.” 陈玉贤没有理会他,看着唐宁,笑道:“没关系的,即便是落榜了,我们好好准备,三年后还能从头再来。” Tang Ning nods with a smile. 唐宁笑着点了点头。 He had known about this dynasty's imperial civil service examination, on big frame, when continued to use the Tang , Song custom, but the modification in detail, including the duration of the examination, content and stress......, the change was too many are too many. 他对这个朝代的科举有所了解,大的框架上,还是沿用唐宋时的规矩,但细节上的改动,包括考试时间、内容、侧重……,变化则是太多太多了。 When the state tried to be equivalent to Tang Dynasty prefectural level examinations probably, in the time retarded for a month, probably in early September to mid September. 州试大概相当于唐朝时的解试,时间上推后了一个月,大概是在九月初到九月中旬。 Tries through the state, is qualified for participating in the province in Beijing next spring to try, if can try through the province, that then can certainly win an academic honor of successful candidate. 通过州试的,才有资格参加明年春天在京城举办的省试,若是能通过省试,那便一定能博得一个进士的功名了。 Final palace examination, but to ranks through the province trial successful candidates, divides a top three. 最后的殿试,只是对通过省试的进士进行排名,分一个前三甲而已。 The custom of this point and Song was similar. 这一点和宋朝的规矩差不多。 Sanjia successful candidate, although is a successful candidate, but the treatment difference is enormous. 三甲进士,虽然同是进士,但待遇差别极大。 The one armor title of the three highest scorers in the palace examinations three people, the future is boundless, the Erjia successful candidate family background, is such as own father-in-law is then ordinary, makes one to be released externally the county magistrate, the road of future official career, will depend entirely on the luck. 一甲进士及第三人,前途自是无可限量,二甲进士出身,便是如自己的岳父一般,做一个外放县令,今后的仕途之路,全靠运气。 As for successful candidate top three, is assigned away from the capital the qualifications of county magistrate not to have continually. 至于进士第三甲,则是连外放县令的资格都没有。 But is this top three, outstanding person who also elects from the scholar under entire day, 99% people, total defeat in the front test...... 但便是这第三甲,也是从全天下的学子中选出来的佼佼者,百分之九十九的人,都在前面的考试中折戟沉沙…… The prefectural level examinations that Tang Ning soon must face, step the first step of road of imperial civil service examination officially. 唐宁即将要面对的解试,就是正式踏上科举之路的第一步。 In the future each step, especially difficult. 往后的每一步,都格外的艰难。 He looks like the salt fish that is not willing to turn over/to stand up, in everyone expected that under the gaze of vision, oneself jumped on the block. 他就像是一条不愿意翻身的咸鱼,在所有人期望目光的注视下,自己跳到了砧板上。 Zhong Mingli looked at him, said: „Later, you may pass in and out my study room at will, if saw the place that anything does not understand, asked me momentarily.” 钟明礼看了看他,说道:“以后,你可随意进出我的书房,若是看到什么不懂的地方,随时问我。” Tang Ning nods, said: „Thanks the father-in-law Sir.” 唐宁点了点头,说道:“谢谢岳父大人。” „Whole family, you're welcome.” Zhong Mingli said, set out to depart. “一家人,不用客气。”钟明礼说了一句之后,就起身离去了。 „Yeah, the food had not finished eating, must the back that goes......” Chen Yuxian to visit him to walk, sighed, looks at Tang Ning saying: „After rather son you , if in testing serves as an official, do not study his.” “哎,饭都没有吃完,又要出去……”陈玉贤看着他走出去的背影,叹了口气,又看着唐宁说道:“宁儿你以后要是考中做了官,可别学他这样。” Taking the test is helpless action, but if wants to test, that probability tests into the probability of Harvard Oxford to be smaller than the later generation, can this is, issue that rather than Tang Ning does think. 参加考试是无奈之举,但要想考中,那概率比后世考上哈佛牛津的概率还小,这是能不能,而不是唐宁想不想的问题。 „Father should have what important matter......” the Zhong Yi opens the mouth, was Tang Ning alleviated awkwardly some. “爹爹应是又有什么要事吧……”钟意开口,为唐宁缓解了一些尴尬。 Chen Yuxian shakes the head, saying that somewhat worries about: „In district the villagers in two villages take growing vegetables as to live, the fruits and vegetables that the vegetable farmer produces cannot sell, they then did in this year not studiously, family broke the livelihood......, this morning two vegetable farmers were unable to withstand the load to throw the river, the person was rescues, but if the fruits and vegetables could not sell again, feared that also met......” 陈玉贤摇了摇头,有些担忧的说道:“县内两个村子的村民以种菜为生,菜农生产的蔬果卖不出去,他们这一年便做了无用功,一家老小则断了生计……,今早有两名菜农不堪重负投了河,人是救回来了,但倘若蔬果再卖不出去,怕是还会……” Tang Ning knows that the fruits and vegetables have a very important reason unsalable, follows. 唐宁知道蔬果滞销有一个很重要的原因,跟风。 If everyone knows that this year the cucumber can the whitening improving the complexion, the complementing water anti- wrinkle, rush to purchase, causing the cucumber price to raise, the benefit obligation, will have more people to plant the cucumber next year. 若是今年大家都知道黄瓜能美白养颜,补水抗皱,争相抢购,导致黄瓜价格抬高,利益驱使,明年就会有更多的人种植黄瓜。 By the second year, the cucumber of planter were too many, the saturation of the market, the cargo will then unable to sell, happened unsalable. 到了第二年,种植的黄瓜太多,市场饱和,货物便会卖不出去,发生滞销。 Also or the women in second year Lingzhou city have abandoned the cucumber, with the key of riddle and the flesh dark blue, the vegetable farmer of that a group of planter cucumber must have nothing to eat...... 亦或者第二年灵州城的女人们已经抛弃了黄瓜,用上了海蓝之谜和肌肤之钥,那一大群种植黄瓜的菜农就要去喝西北风了…… Tang Ning shakes the head, speaks thoughtlessly to ask: „What is unsalable is what fruits and vegetables?” 唐宁摇了摇头,随口问道:“滞销的是什么蔬果？” Chen Yuxian thinks, said: „Probably azure melon......” 陈玉贤想了想,说道:“好像是青瓜吧……”
