The seventh day of February is the day when the examination will begin. otbnkotgt Because the lifters have to spend the night in the examination room, and the capital in February is still cold in the morning and evening, so in addition to the necessary examination items and food, it is indispensable to cover cotton clothes and stoves.
Of course, this is also related to the identity of the candidates, there has always been only a sour show, there is no poor people, and those who are qualified to participate in the examination are all masters, even if the original family is poor, this time is also developed, and some are fellow villagers and gentry to supplement and help, icing on the cake, so they all take the scholars, take care of the porter, and the examination items are also prepared complete and thoughtful, and the township examination is not the same.
However, when they arrived at the square in front of the Gongyuan, many people regretted it, because no idlers were allowed to enter the examination room, and all the items could only be carried by one candidate.
The reason why the lifters had to put their bedding coats on their shoulders, carry the examination boxes on their backs, and carry the examination baskets and examination stools in their hands is because it is very time-consuming for thousands of candidates to enter the roll call and search, and the first day is used to do this from dawn to dusk.
If the candidate is unlucky, waiting in the early morning and entering at dusk, how can he hold up without a stool In addition to this, they also have roll bags around their necks, as the name suggests, roll bags are bags that are used to hold test papers.

The first thing I did when I arrived at the room was to hang the roll bag on the wall to feel at ease.
So there was such a situation in front of the Gongyuan Academy, only to see a weak scholar, carrying a bedding, carrying an examination box, carrying an examination basket, an examination stool, and a roll bag around his neck, looking embarrassed and embarrassed.
But it's nothing compared to the inhuman treatment they'll be subjected to next.
When the fifth watch is drummed up, I will listen to the three cannons on the ground, the Gongyuan Gate is opened, and two columns of forbidden soldiers wearing Tuxin uniforms and carrying long knives at their waists come out of the Yuanmen in order, and they are three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry on the square in front of the Gongyuan.
When they stood solemnly with their hands on the hilt of their swords, there were three more cannon shots, and this time the gate of the Gongyuan was opened, and two columns of Jinyi guards wearing flying fish suits and carrying embroidered spring knives walked out, and lined up between the gate and the gate.
When the three cannons sounded again, the dragon gate slowly opened, the bell and drum tower of the capital also rang the bell and drum, and the temples and temples also responded together, singing and harmonizing with each other, indicating that the Ming Yongle thirteen years of the examination officially began At this moment, to:
