The history of Europe and the West is not easy to learn. There are so many different countries that it feels like a mess at first glance. read

М

General Zhang only knew a little bit about the history of the West.

But he graduated from a military academy.

These listed historical materials happened to be some military analysis materials of the European War, and he knew it very well. He replied: "The Anglo-French war, the Congress of Vienna, and the Crimean campaign listed in this examination paper are all theoretical and detailed, not nonsense! "

Magistrate Yin took a sip of tea and said: "Since Xiangchu said so, I will test his talents in class to see if he is really talented, or if he just happened to know that talents must be valued for the sake of national ethics. !”

"What the Master said makes sense."

This was done in accordance with the rules, and General Zhang didn't think there was anything wrong.

Soon, as instructed, the clerk found Bai Gui's seat number and invited him to the court to answer Magistrate Yin's questions face to face.

"this……"

General Zhang was obviously stunned for a moment when he saw Bai Gui.

Somewhat overwhelmed.

This...why did Bai Gui come up?

He recalled the handwriting just now, and it seemed that it was somewhat similar to Bai Gui's, except that he taught Japanese, not middle school, and usually asked for advice in Japanese, so the handwriting was not visible for a while.

"I was tricked by this old guy..."

General Zhang immediately agreed. This was because Magistrate Yin knew that this was Bai Gui's test paper and deliberately asked him to come up and comment. Once he said that the paper was good and he could be admitted, he would have lost his "handle". At the same time, Magistrate Yin I will also sell him favors.

Only then did he realize what a deep officialdom meant.

Magistrate Yin immediately taught him a lesson.

There is no such thing as avoiding relatives in favor of talents. Some people also use power for personal gain. When Zhang Taiyue served as the first assistant, his three sons, Zhang Maoxiu, won the first place in the eighth year of Wanli, Zhang Sixiu also won the second place in the first place of Wanli in the fifth year, and Zhang Jingxiu won the same place in the eighth year of Wanli. Later, this became the argument for Zhang Juzheng's accusation of traitor to the party.

Therefore, when officialdom encounters this kind of thing, it is often an exchange of power, and the appearance is not the same as the spirit. You help me on one side, and I'll help you on the other side. It's rare that Zhang Juzheng is so ugly...

Now, Magistrate Yin has set a trap for him, and he accidentally got in, so he can only admit that he is unlucky.

However, the mere government examination was not enough to tarnish his reputation. After all, Bai Gui is also the head of the case and must be taken as a rule.

"This guy is so lucky."

General Zhang sighed quietly in his heart, and did not complain too much about Bai Gui. This was because he had ordered the people in the government office to take more care of Bai Gui in advance. Now that Magistrate Yin found out, the "care" was even worse. It was not Bai Gui's fault.

Similarly, in order to sell favors to him, Magistrate Yin would also give Bai Gui a higher ranking, and even... the identity of the leader of the case!

"My little friend, your article is very suitable for me. I'm here to test you to see if you really have real talent and learning?"

Magistrate Yin said to Bai Gui with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Fu, for your consideration."

Bai Gui hurriedly saluted Magistrate Yin. He had no meritorious status yet, so Magistrate Yin called him Xiaoyou. If he won the meritorious title, he would add a new character after his last name, and this would be the title of a student.

At a glance, he saw General Zhang waiting nearby, and he suddenly understood.

"Please ask the Master to ask."

He lowered his head and did not dare to look further. This was the rule in the court. If he had a reputation, he could be on an equal footing with the royal family. Although he was a scholar, he was actually a commoner.

"My little friend, who is in charge of this country of England now?"

Magistrate Yin seemed to have something to ask.

Just when Bai Gui was about to blurt out, he stopped immediately. Now Governor Yin asked who is in power, but he did not ask who is the king of the United Kingdom. This is also a test of some political issues in the United Kingdom. His answer was very concise: "Reporting to the governor, the one in power now is King Edward VII of England." , the Prime Minister is Herbert Henry Asquith of the Liberal Party!”

These are the necessary documents to enter the examination room.

The problem is simple.

It is impossible not to be familiar with some things in England at the moment.

"Yes, he is indeed a pillar of our Qing Dynasty!"

Magistrate Yin praised.

"The pillar of the Qing Dynasty?"

Bai Gui raised his eyebrows, feeling a little depressed for some reason, but he was still under the rule of the Qing court, so he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only lower his head and remain silent.

Magistrate Yin wasn't surprised either. As a young man, he could easily get nervous after a few school exams. He asked a few more about the current news, which was all in the newspapers.

I asked a few more questions about the Four Books, and they were not too difficult.

Thanks to the complete and wide range of newspapers ordered by the Normal School and his talent for being clever, he answered the questions one by one in a clear and appropriate manner.

"You can go down now."

Magistrate Yin waved Bai Gui to go down.

There was a distance from his seat in the courtroom, which was a blind spot and he couldn't see inside. I don’t know the content and actions of Magistrate Yin and General Zhang inside.

Bai Gui simply ignored it.

He judged that this should be a good thing for him.

In the second half of the government examination, there was a question on the translation of a previously issued official document. It was a Chinese translation of a Western classic, which could be translated into any foreign language.

Bai Gui is now quite proficient in Japanese, and he translated it in less than an hour and three minutes, in one go.

Without thinking, he took the test paper in his hand and went straight to the court!

At this moment, all the candidates were stunned. Although this translation question was not that difficult, it still required careful consideration to see if there were any omissions in the grammar. But this person... did it take a quarter of an hour?

To be so bold, to be the first to hand in the paper?

Bai Gui took a deep breath, held his head high, and strode toward the court.

He strives to maintain stability, which is the stability on the test paper, and does not show off his edge, but in terms of behavior, at this moment, he is not allowed to stay dormant. As the county case leader, if you strive to improve, you must be the government trial case leader!

We can’t embarrass General Zhang!

Dun Dun’s teachings are as if they are right in front of you.

This is what is called: "Keep walking on thin ice with a heart and act bravely and diligently!"

Magistrate Yin was sitting behind the papers. He looked at Bai Gui who was walking up the stairs in surprise. Could it be that this young man didn't know how to translate the question? Could it be that he had seen it wrong? That's not right. Didn't the scribe say that he had recently Can I ask Zhang Xishu for Japanese lessons again...

All kinds of thoughts come to mind.

There were more than a dozen scribes and government servants standing beside the case, all looking at each other. However, there are people who are familiar with Bai Gui and don't think it's strange. This young man has been studying hard in the government office and will not lose so quickly.

"Please ask the Lord to review it!"

When Bai Gui was more than twenty steps away from Magistrate Yin, he stopped, held the test paper in both hands, and bowed slightly forward respectfully.
