At the end of the three test sessions, it is decided that you will not pass the exam. The test is the last knockout, and the hall test after that is a qualifying match. As long as you can get in, the guarantee is also the same Jinshi. There is no need to review as hard as before the test.

Most candidates for ten, twenty, thirty years...After the cold window, there is no such thing as the spirit of having to be a Jinshi and at least, or at least be a Jinshi. As long as I can quickly pass the exam, and end the three-year, long invisible torture.

Even young people like Cui Xie wanted to let themselves go, and Lu Juren went home and changed clothes in a hurry, so he found a place to drink with his fellow villagers, feeling that his life was gone. After the exams, some of the students in Qian'an also went to celebrate with their fellow villagers, and some of them had not come out of the exam room at this time. Old lady Cui asked someone to prepare a few good banquets for them to catch the wind, but they couldn't get the head together. , The dishes are hot on the stove.

Cui Xie took Xie Ying back home, and those good dishes finally became useful.

He asked people to set up a small banquet in his yard, and he picked up good dishes to give to his grandparents and younger siblings. He also asked the big kitchen to save more stews and soups so that those who came back late can eat them at home. on. Most of what he asked for was food and drink, and he asked someone to open the fine wine from Tan Xie's family, folded it into a small pot and warmed it up, raising the pot in anticipation and pouring two glasses with his own hands.

Xie Ying toasted to him: "The virtuous brother is an examinee today. Brother Yu first toasts you a cup. I wish you great success in the palace exam and the title of the gold list."

Cui Xie happily raised his head and drank a glass, raised a jug to pour the wine, and held the cup in both hands. "My brother, I also wish my brother a prosperous future and a bright future."

He can barely take care of food, and can drink a few glasses of wine just watching Xie Ying. Xie Ying put a chopstick of steamed fish into his bowl and told him to pad his stomach so as not to drink anxious wine. Komatsu Yan who was serving on the side hurriedly picked up the chopsticks to pick up the dishes, and said nervously: "It's up to the small ones to serve the adults and the sons to eat the dishes, how can you let the adults do it!"

Xie Ying took the chopsticks and was not busy eating. She smiled and said to Cui Xie: "You little boy is so obedient, I remember that your family holding inkstone was at this age, so diligent and sensible, right?"

Cui Xie shook his head: "He is younger than he was when holding the inkstone. This small body is not too big, and I don't have much strength, and I can't bear to ask him to work." He smiled as he watched Xiao Songyan frantically arranging vegetables. Laughing: "There are not many tables in the U.S., so don't mess with Master Xie here. It's cold at night, you go to the kitchen and ask for two bowls of steamed double skin milk, and then you go in for a brazier."

The hall is not as warm as the room with a heated kang. Unfortunately, the Cui family has many eyes and it is not convenient for him to let the guests into his bedroom...

Cui Xie thought about it with the wine cup in his mouth, suddenly spit out the cup, and said with a smile: "Our family had never expected to welcome the distinguished guests, and we didn't invite someone to sing, so we had to add articles to the wine. We will eat almost later. Now, can I go to my study to send wine with articles?"

His study usually doesn't allow people to go in. If you want to do something private in this home, it really is the most convenient in the study. After a while, ask someone to burn the stove that is open to the fire in the study, sit on the fire warmly, and read comics and articles. Isn’t that good?

Komatsuyan finally knew what to do, and walked stiff steps out of the courtyard, looking for someone to eat, a brazier, and burning the kang in the study. Cui Xie became a diligent host, Jia Caibujiu persuaded Xie Ying to eat and drink. Master Xie also understood that he was tired and hungry just after the exam, and didn't give him any food.

The kang in the study was cooked, and the two of them had almost eaten, so they carried a pot of wine and picked a box of fish meat, dried meat, dried fruits, rice cakes and other good foods that were not easy to be oily, together with the two bowls. The trembling double skin milk went to the study to read.

The study room is also similar to his layout in Qian'an: under the north window is the fire kang, the east wall is a large bookshelf on the other side, and there is a countdown board for the examination on the opposite side. There is a soft feather sofa under the bookshelf, and there is a small coffee table in front of the sofa. Food is placed on the sofa. It is very comfortable for people to go on the kang or nest on the sofa.

The trial was over, and the date on the timing board was wiped off, and there was no more worrying feeling. Xie Ying scanned the board and walked to the bookshelf to read the books on it-from the Four Books and Five Classics to Tongjian, from Tang and Song anthologies to Huixueweimo...except for the Da Ming Law and the Imperial Examination, he was familiar with it. , The rest was dizzy.

He smiled, looked at Cui Xie and said: "If Cui Juren invited me to read these articles, then I should just look at the writers. I can't read the articles, but I can still see them. The article has a good life."

He usually dignified and solemn, and said such words abruptly, it really shocked people's hearts.

Cui Xie was rummaging through the drawings in the cabinet door under the bookshelf. Hearing him boasting that he didn't even look for anything, he looked at him brightly, and even the dark circles in the exams these days made his smile fade. He said with a radiant face: "Brother Xie just watch. If you don’t see enough for a while, why don’t you stay in and watch slowly at night? Leave a few of my fellow townspeople who have lived more recently, and there are no other guest rooms. Why don’t I live in a study room and spare the bedroom live?"

"After all, it's not convenient for you. In the evening, if your fellow townsmen come back from exams, or after a drink, don't you come to talk to you? Do you stay with me all night, or just go out to meet them?"

Xie Ying shook her head, walked to the front of the cabinet, bent down to hug him from behind, and slowly tightened her arms: "Go to my place. My new house has no people yet, don't you need to go to the Chinese Academy of Sciences on the first day of next month? "

Guoxue!

Yes, it took five years for the Imperial College to go to school. After the exam, he has to take off leave and go to school! Although he had taken the Jinshi exam in advance, he was still a student of Chinese Studies if he didn't pass the exam one day. Before, I just thought that I would be able to fly after the exam. I didn’t expect that the exam was not a college entrance examination but a college exam. After the exam, I had to go to school and wait for the final exam...

Thinking of this, Cui Xie's eyebrows can't help but droop, and he took out a bunch of scripts and drawings of comic strips from the cabinet and asked Xie Ying, the invisible hero, to read it.

He plunged into the sofa by himself, not wanting to do anything.

Xie Ying didn't get on the hot kang, but went to pick him up and told him to lie on her lap.

Those manuscript papers were too dirty and greasy, so they wouldn't fit on the coffee table. Xie Ying held the manuscript in one hand and twitched the pages he had read underneath. When he ate, he took off his official robes and changed to the big sleeves that Cui Xie usually wears. The wide sleeves dragged back and forth on Cui Xie’s face, making his face itchy and unable to lie down, so he simply got up. , Leaning against Xie Ying and reading the manuscript with him.

The March manuscript was taken and sent to the press early, but it was not sold until the eighth day of March. The April script was also in his hands. He had just painted a few pages and was still there because of the exam.

Also because of the exam, the drafts of the two months are really drafts. The characters only draw a body with a bald head and no clothes. The posture must be designed by him. The background is only roughly drawn with a few lines, with words like "courtyard", "inner room" and "tree" written on it. Only a few lines are used to determine the angle of orientation and the position of the facial features, and the names of the characters are written on the body. The specific clothes have to be drawn with inkstones and the painters holding the drawings of the people drawn earlier.

When he first painted Xie Ying, he thought he couldn’t stop when he painted. The angles and expressions of the painting were too much. Later, he didn’t have time to paint himself. He remembered that the drafts were available for those people, and tried to get Cui Qi on the draft. Take the painted face, and then trace the corresponding clothes along the figure.

It didn't look too bad.

Beginners like Cui Qi can draw it, and skilled craftsmen are not a problem.

He simply took some time to draw all the facial angles and expressions of the thousands of households who appeared most frequently, and asked the painters and handymen to practice sketching according to the pictures.

Slowly, everyone discovered the benefits of such drawing according to the standard setting.

It's fast, accurate, and easy. Choi Xie just writes the roughest draft, one in a few minutes. Each craftsman divides a draft, draws a picture of the corresponding figure, and can produce a picture. The skill is good and the color is added. More than 100 pages of embroidered pictures per month can be easily drawn. Those masters who engraved the engraving were all well-carved and embroidered, so it didn't take much effort to just add two color pictures on the front and back.

Now, as long as he gives a crosshair when making a draft, the craftsmen at home can follow the benchmark to draw almost undistorted facial features. Even if there is a slight difference, readers can't see it. It will only be caused by changes in posture and expression. They will not know that the comics they watch are produced by the division of labor and the advanced methods of modern comic studios.

When Xie Ying heard him introduce the advanced mode of her study, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "I can still paint like this? I also read three of your books, and guessed where you invited such a person to paint quickly and well. The painter didn't even see that every page was written by a different person!

Cui Xie was a little proud and a little embarrassed to say: "Actually, I started to draw only pencil sketches, and asked Cui Qi to draw and color the drawings, but it was not as tight as it was during the test... In fact, this is fine. What I want to paint later, just make a draft and give it to them to complete, it will save me time."

Xie Ying took him pity from behind, rubbing his slightly blue eyes with her fingertips: "You should also save some time and rest. Are other scholars who have worked so hard for you? I have stopped watching this comic for a few months. It doesn’t matter. When "Six Talents Criticism on Three Kingdoms" stopped for so long, wouldn’t everyone who watched it wait?"

He looked down at the names of "Wang Qianhu", "Lu Qianhu", "Japanese Pirate Four", "Japanese Pioneer Ten" on the picture, and said with certainty: "Anyway, everyone is just anxious to see how An Qianhu seduces the Japanese pirates. When the painting is over, there is no need to worry about painting or not painting others."

Then how can you not worry, An Qianhu is not the protagonist, the protagonist is Xie Zhenfu! The readers are not in a hurry, he is in a hurry before Master Fu Xie in Daming Town leads 14 super thousand families to the battlefield.

He looked up at the pile of drawing papers, pulled out his outline from it, and snorted at Xie Ying: "Look, Xie Zhenfu's plays are all going to Zhejiang to fight the Japanese in the back, and the first is 14 thousand. The scattered stories don’t matter, the main thing is behind.”

Sure enough, Xie Ying looked from the back, regardless of how An Qianhu differentiated the Japanese pirates by beauty, and together with Xu Qianhuli Yingwai, a sea-going ship; and Wang Qianhu who was about to go to the south of the Yangtze River to search for the thief, was Miss Japanese pirate took a fancy to the story of Shi Meinan's plan to take the sea route map; they did not look at Lu Qianhu, Shi Qianhu and others who found out that Japanese pirates colluded with local profiteers to smuggle silk and porcelain in Fujian and Guangdong. How could they deal with them in one fell swoop? Cut its foundation on land...

He skipped all of these, only to see how he mobilized the army of Jinyiwei to secretly descend to the south of the Yangtze River after he got the route map. When the Japanese pirate leader wanted to take the Ming Dynasty, the gods descended from the sky to wipe out the Japanese pirates who charged ashore and seize all his ships.

Choi Xie became more excited when he wrote these things, and became more excited when he wrote them. He almost called Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu who had been the BOSS for decades. Xie Ying couldn't help blushing when she looked at herself, coughed lightly, and whispered against his face: "We Jinyiwei can't go out to war so easily. It's also for etiquette. It's not a real one..."

Cui Xie stole a kiss on his face, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, anyway, I painted the first year of the Tang Dynasty. The Jinyiwei of the Tang Dynasty is different from ours. And now there is no Japanese pirate who can ascend to the Ming Dynasty. soil of."

During the Cheng and Hong years, Japan was still fighting at the village chief level on Xiaopodao, and there were not many pirates who could harass China. As long as this cartoon can plant this seed in people's hearts, prevent the slightest failure, and don't have so many traitors colluding with Japanese pirates to take Da Ming, and those ronin will not be so easy to wreak havoc in the country.

Xie Ying looked at the brilliance flowing in his eyes, couldn't help but smile with him, pulled him to sit on her lap, and put his hands together, saying, "What you said is that the Jinyiwei of Datang can only take Elephants repelled the pirates, cleared their islands by boat, and tied their king to Beijing to offer prisoners. It is a pity that the warriors in Jinyiwei do not understand the Japanese language, but here is a Cui Hanlin who can help Xie Zhenfu translate the Japanese language. , Help him hit the island straight."

This article is no longer good. The outline has been given to the Hanlins, and they can only write until the Battle on the Sea. In the next article, they agreed to write Tartar, and they could only wait for the third article. Fortunately, things like comics can be serialized indefinitely if you want to serialize them. In the future, you can draw them slowly so that the people of Ming Dynasty can understand in advance the development of science and technology in the era of great navigation...

Even if he drew comics and saw more people and less believers, what's the big deal? He only needs to draw the future world as a fairy tale story, and he will confirm the things he painted and what will happen in the future, knowing how big the world is and how fast the outside changes. Maybe this will allow Daming to develop with the outside world when he still has the ability to develop, so as not to repeat the history he knows?

With unrealistic hopes in his heart, he raised his eyes to Xie Ying and said with a smile: "How can Cui Hanlin, a weak scholar, help Master Xie defeat the Japanese pirates? All of you Jinyiwei have martial arts, and my scholar can only use it. Firearms, you have to line up a firearm for me, right?

Xie Ying was only joking with him, but didn't want him to be really willing to add himself. He stood side by side in the picture book.

This picture book has a strong allusion, and each of the 14 thousand households corresponds to each other. They all regard themselves as people in the book, and there is nothing to discuss how to fight against the Japanese pirates in the future. If Cui Xieruo clipped a figure alluding to himself in the book, and still followed Xie Zhenfu, then the relationship between the two of them...at least is friendship, it is really well known in the world.

But he couldn't refuse it as easily as he said this, because Cui Xie promised that he was not rash, and his attitude and expression were extremely serious.

He had always felt that Cui Xie was young, because he was often in a difficult situation because of his young age, and he couldn't tell whether he was grateful or like it at the slightest benefit, and he was willing to return heartily. But he didn't want to make a report on En, so he always wanted to push Cui Xie away and let him live a decent life that a scholar should have.

Until the past few years, he has gradually realized Cui Xie's sincerity, and can't bear to ruin his heart with reasons such as "for his good". No matter how reluctant, he just sighed deeply: "We usually don't use firearms, and we can't think of it for a while. We have to ask others and think about it. Looking back, I see if there are any books with firearms drawings. You get a copy. It is usually difficult for you scholars to see those, and I am afraid you can't draw them. It would be easier to have a picture for reference."
