Chapter 105 The B-shaped volume is exposed to the morning dew, waiting for the sun to melt into it

Zhou Chaozong asked more and more detailed questions, and began to examine specific chapters in Feng Ziying's Four Books and Five Classics. The sweat on Feng Ziying's forehead began to slowly seep out, and the underwear behind her back began to stick to her back.

But among the questions Zhou Chaozong asked casually, Feng Ziying answered slower and slower, and more and more questions were stammered, and it even took a long time to recall them. Some simply couldn't answer or answered the question incorrectly.

Master, absolute master, Feng Ziying originally thought that she had put in a lot of hard work by studying the Four Books and Five Classics and various annotations in the past six years. Although she was not as good as the students in the academy, she was not too bad, but Zhou Chaozong's random questions revealed his true colors.

"Okay." When the words "Zhou Chaozong" came out of her mouth, Feng Ziying felt that she was about to collapse. With just two sticks of incense, she asked herself questions that were more difficult than participating in an international college debate competition. Still tough.

“The foundation is pretty good, but if you want to take the Chinese Provincial Examination, you’re still far from it. But there are still two years left, so you can make up for it.” A look of relief appeared on Zhou Chaozong’s fat face.

 Qi Yongtai had previously arranged for him to help with tutoring for the boy, but he felt a headache after learning about his situation.

These dandy boys actually came to Qingtan Academy. Qiao Yingjia didn't know that he was drunk before writing this letter of recommendation, but he put this difficult problem on his own head.

 Now it looks much better than imagined, and the basic foundation is in place.

There are still two years left. As long as he deepens and improves according to his own methods, he is still confident, especially since the other party will take the provincial examination in Shuntian Prefecture and has a background in the Imperial College, it will be more secure.

Although there are no shortcuts in this provincial examination and no one dares to do anything in private, there are still some differences in practice.

 For example, South Beijing has the highest Chinese style rate.

In the autumn of the first year of Yonglong in Shuntian Prefecture, there were more than 4,500 scholars and 220 Chinese scholars, almost reaching a ratio of one in twenty.

 As for Zhejiang and Jiangxi, where competition is more intense, more than 3,000 Confucian candidates participated in the rural examination, but the number of Chinese candidates was only about 100, and the admission rate was only about 3.3%.

The main reason for this is that a large number of registered scholars have to apply for admission in Shuntian Prefecture, so Shuntian Prefecture has always had the largest number of candidates, and more places means a greater chance of passing the exam.

Because some of these residents are children of Beijing officials, most of them are children of town guards. If this group of people is to be tested in terms of academic style and scientific examination, they will definitely not be able to compete with the more powerful ones such as Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Huguang. Compared with major provinces that have fierce imperial examinations, there is a gap compared with provinces such as Shandong and Henan.

“To learn to be a good student, students still need to pass the preparatory exam and the monthly exam...” Feng Ziying was still a little worried about this.

"Well, there's no need to worry, the academy has its own arrangements." Zhou Chaozong naturally knew that Qi Yongtai valued his son very much. In the next few days, he would teach around the example of the Shandong Civil War, and even use it as a reference for this season's Qi Yongtai. It is a big question in the exam, so we pay special attention to it. As a participant, Feng Ziying cannot be absent.

 After hearing Zhou Chaozong's words, Feng Ziying felt relieved. Since she was seeking something from herself, she would definitely give herself some sweetness.

For example, at least you can’t allow yourself to fail the preparatory exam and the monthly exam in the first month and be kicked out. That’s too much.

 Academies cannot be a spotless pure land. They are also subject to various influences from the outside world.

 The academy itself is a place that supplies talents for scientific research and even the imperial court. If it cannot be linked to the current affairs of the DPRK and China, how can the value of the academy be reflected?

After all, he was also recommended by Duke Qiao in his own letter, and the reputation of his trip to Shandong was spread to the ears of the elders and the emperor. It was a bit unexpected to come to Qingtan Academy, but as long as he was a smart person, he would not be turned away. outside.

As for whether he can study in Qingtan Academy and pass the imperial examination, that is another matter. After all, there are regulations set by the imperial court that no one can surpass.

 Yishe is a spacious lobby with tiled roofs that can accommodate fifty people.

However, there are currently not so many people in the academy. There are about forty people in House Yi, and there are only about thirty-five or six people in House Jia.

 According to the academy system, people get up at Maozheng, wash up at Maozheng and then start morning classes. Then they have breakfast at Maozheng at two quarters, and morning classes begin at Chenzheng.

  After two days, Feng Ziying was already familiar with the basic situation of the entire Qingtan Academy.

The students of Yishe are basically under the age of sixteen, and they are in the most eager period of studying. Although the academy stipulates that they get up at midnight, many people have already gotten up at two quarters to start morning classes on their own. The academy is concerned about this There is no mandatory requirement, but it is required to get up no earlier than a quarter past two o'clock.

 Feng Ziying usually gets up at the beginning of the morning when she is at home.

 This is considered quite early among the noble disciples. Feng Ziying developed the habit of practicing with the gun and stick first when getting up at the same time. Feng Ziying has always adhered to this habit.

This was originally a tradition that the martial arts disciples relied on for their livelihood, but many of the noble disciples had long forgotten this custom and indulged in a comfortable life. Fortunately, the Feng family still continued it.

But it was obviously not feasible for him to get up at the beginning of the morning in Qingtan Academy. He had to go earlier to keep in tune with his classmates.

　　After doing some boxing and kicking, and then dancing with a whistle stick for a while, she was sweating all over, and Feng Ziying just walked back to the dormitory from the clearing in the forest.

 It is indeed too early at 2:00 a.m., but when I get up at 2:00 a.m., there is no time to warm up and exercise.

Feng Ziying didn't want to give up such a good habit that he had developed with great difficulty in this time and space, so he chose to get up at 3:30, practice fisting, kicking and sticks for two quarters, and then took another quarter to wash up. It was a little tight, but he could make it in time.

“Ziying, is this a habit you’ve developed?” When they saw Feng Ziying entering the dormitory, Chen Qiyu and Fu Zonglong, who were already preparing to go to the school building for morning classes, felt indescribable.

"Well, the body is the foundation for studying and even doing things in the future. Without a strong body, I will be sick and bedridden frequently. I also think this is inappropriate, so I practice regularly and my body and bones will be stronger. I will have less headaches and fever, and I will have more time to study.”

This principle seems very simple, but it may not be accepted by these students. In their view, dancing with swords and sticks is what martial artists do. Since Feng Ziying is going to take the road of examination, there is no point in dancing with swords and sticks. .

Although Chen Qiyu and Fu Zonglong didn't agree with it, they didn't say anything.

This is a personal hobby, and liking swords is also a matter of personal freedom. Besides, there are also some literati who like to hang swords and hang swords, which gives them a unique and heroic look.

However, Xu Qixun agreed very much with Feng Ziying's hobby. His body was a bit thin. After Feng Ziying suggested that he should exercise moderately every day to help strengthen his body, he also began to learn to do dozens of push-ups every day like Feng Ziying did before going to bed. , as for Feng Ziying’s family tradition of rubbing the abdomen to nourish essence, he was indifferent to it.

Feng Ziying actually hoped that Xu Qixun could practice the energy-recharging method taught to him by his father's close friend Zhang Taiyi Zhang Youshi. However, Xu Qixun actually accepted push-ups but declined the abdominal rubbing method to nourish the essence, which made him very disappointed. It's a pity.

 The other two in the dormitory, Song Shixiang and Fang Youdu, were not as aggressive as Chen Qiyu and Fu Zonglong. They had a more indifferent attitude towards what Feng Ziying did.

Three not-so-obvious circles were formed in the entire dormitory in a day or two. Chen Qiyu and Fu Zonglong have always been close, while Fang Youdu and Song Shixiang traveled together for board and lodging, while Xu Qixun, who was originally alone, quickly walked to Feng Ziying's side.

 Feng Ziying actually does not hope so.

This kind of small circle seems to be able to attract Xu Qixun as soon as it comes and proves its charm. However, it can also easily draw a clear line between several other people, which will create resistance to the next step of recruiting these people.

 Chen Qiyu and Fu Zonglong are fine. It is not easy to convince these two guys with high eyesight in a short time. However, the relatively weak Song Shixiang and Fang Youdu are suitable targets, and Feng Ziying does not intend to let them go.
