Chapter 387: The Palace Exam
There is a distance from the palace to the palace, but the Mayan Dynasty has always had a rule that students who participate in the palace examination must walk this section on foot, which shows the awe of the palace examination and the future officialdom career.
Although this time, with the top ten results, even if you only got a tenth place in the palace examination, you still have a big official to do, and if you are an official, you will have an official residence, and you can take a carriage and a sedan chair when you go out, but before that, you still have to finish this journey honestly.
The layout of Weilong City is very neat, a city in all directions, the palace is in the center of this city, there are doors on all sides, and the students enter the palace through the east gate.
The east is the direction of the rising sun, representing the vigor and vigor, symbolizing hope and the future, all these young students as the hope of the country and the future of the imperial court, Zhang Bang is on the east wall, entering the palace and walking through the east gate, there are some exquisiteness.
And those who were dismissed and returned to the field, those who returned to their hometowns, or those who were demoted or dismissed all went to the West Gate, which means that they can withdraw from the stage of history.
The two gates that are really commonly used in the palace are actually the south gate and the north gate, because the direction of the palace is to sit in the north and face south, and the ministers go to the south gate in the court, and after retreating from the court, they take the north gate.
When he arrived at the east gate, Cui Zhaohuan was already waiting here, and after completing the handover, he took everyone to continue to walk towards the Zhaoxian Palace, this hall is specially used for the palace test, usually if there are particularly outstanding talents who want to take up official positions, the king will also conduct a certain inspection of them in the Zhaoxian Palace.
To the Zhaoxian Palace, this hall is not built so grandiose, the area is not large, the steps have a total of ten floors, symbolizing the ten years of cold windows no one asked, in one fell swoop became famous all over the world.
Entering the Zhaoxian Palace, there is a dragon chair on the three-story high platform inside, there are two chairs on the left and right of the lower hand, a total of five people's positions, at this time the dragon chair is empty, and a chair is also empty, and there are already three people sitting on the other three chairs, one of which is Sima Bu, Chen Cheng has already seen.
The other two, one of them had a white beard, drooping and old, and even his eyes were closed, reclining in a chair to rest, and the other was full of energy, with tiger eyes wide open, and sat there with an aura like a tiger cheetah.
On the opposite side of these five positions, that is, a large area of the main hall, ten sets of tables and chairs are neatly placed for ten students.
"Three adults, the top ten of this big exam have been brought. Cui Zhaohuan stood in the center of the hall and arched his hand.
The white-haired old man only opened his eyes at this time, but he still only narrowed into a slit and swept past everyone.
The middle-aged man who was full of energy looked at everyone with interest, Sima Bu seemed to be the most vocal among the four, he stood up and bowed to Cui Zhaohuan: "Lord Cui has worked hard, please take a seat." ”
It turned out that the empty chair was reserved for Cui Zhaohuan, so that the four examiners who accompanied the exam could be considered to be together.
"The king is busy with political affairs, and I have to wait a little longer, let me first introduce you to a few adults who accompany the exam today, this is the Taishi Tan Qianqi, this is the general Peng Wuving, this is the Chongwen Pavilion Master Cui Zhaohuan, and I am the prime minister of the dynasty, Sima Bu. Sima Bu introduced them one by one, and it turned out that the white-haired old man who was drooping was Tai
Shi Tan Qianqi, and another middle-aged man who is full of temperament is the general Peng Wuving.
The four big names of the Maya Dynasty can be seen at once, which is enough to show the importance that the dynasty attaches to this palace test.
"Next, just wait. Sima Bu dropped a word, sat back in his chair, and went out of the wandering thing, leaving the ten students who did not dare to move, just stood and waited neatly.
After waiting for more than an hour, an official finally walked into the hall quickly, stood beside Sima Bu, and whispered a few times in his ear.
Sima Bu nodded: "Ladies and gentlemen, the king will be here soon, let's prepare to greet you." ”
When the words fell, the four escort examiners all stood up and lined up in front of the door to greet them, all of them maintained a posture of bowing and bowing, Chen Yu and the other ten people also hurriedly followed suit when they saw this, and stood in line behind Sima Bu and the other four, not even daring to come out.
After waiting for another five or six minutes, two figures walked into the main hall.
"Greetings to my king, greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince. Sima Bu said in unison.
"Weichen (grass people) greets my king and welcomes His Royal Highness the prince. Chen Heming and the other ten people also learned to speak.
"Let's all be flat. A soft voice came, although Chen Heal could completely perceive what the two people looked like through his spirit even if he lowered his head, but this is the Zhaoxian Palace, this is the scene of the palace test, who dares to release his spiritual power, that is really looking for death.
It can only be judged by the sound that the king sat on the dragon chair, and His Royal Highness the prince stood next to the dragon chair, and there was no seat.
"All four adults, please take a seat, I have worked hard for you to accompany the exam today, and the ten candidates are also seated, don't be nervous, just play your true level later." Wang Shang continued.
"Thank you. After everyone thanked them in unison, they took their seats in turn, and the ten students consciously sat down in order according to the ranking.
It was also at this time that Chen Hell had the opportunity to raise his head and look at the king and His Royal Highness the Prince of the Mayan Dynasty, the king was very young, he looked like he was in his thirties, handsome in appearance and graceful, His Royal Highness the Prince was only five or six years old, and he was still an ignorant child, standing beside the dragon chair with his hands down honestly, looking at the ten students curiously with small eyes.
Chen Yu didn't dare to look at it more, and after glancing at it, he hurriedly lowered his head, maintaining a very humble posture.
"Today's palace examination, presided over by the king himself, invited the prince, the prime minister, the general and the Cui Pavilion Lord to accompany the exam, take this opportunity, I take the fourth to appreciate the demeanor of your students.
I have read all the articles of the ten of you in the national examination, and I have made Zhu criticisms one by one, and I am very impressed, it is indeed not easy to stand out from so many candidates, and it is enough to be worthy of the four words of the pillars of the country.
I just remember the articles written by each of you now, but the people and the articles are not the same, so the ten of you should introduce yourself first, and let this king and the four adults know in their hearts. The king said.
This king's name is Xiao Yuan, a master of the Xuanwang realm, how many products are specific, Chen Heal can't tell, the fourth prince is named Xiao Che, and he is also Xiao Yuan's youngest son, Xiao Yuan only has four sons under his knees, and he has no daughter.
"Wechen Sima Hongru, long live my king, His Royal Highness the prince is a thousand years old, and the four adults are healthy. Sima Hongru was the first to say
Road.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Yuyu and others also made a simple self-introduction according to the same pattern in turn.
"Okay, this time it's the right number, for the sake of fairness, the ten of you draw lots to decide the order of the palace examination, I will give different questions for each of you, you can have a quarter of an hour to think after you get the questions, and then make a statement, it can be long or short, but it must be done in one go, and if there is a pause in the middle, it will be over, do you understand?" the king asked.
Chen Heyu and the other ten people agreed in unison, and Sima Hongru and the four also nodded slightly to indicate that this move was feasible.
Wang Shang casually threw out ten light clusters, scattered in the air, Chen Hell and the others reached out and took one of them at will, and it became a pearl with numbers engraved on it, Chen Hell drew ten, and it seemed that he was going to be the last to appear.
"Who's the first?" asked the king after the draw was over.
"Long live the king, Deng Jie, the daughter of the people, drew the first one. Deng Jie stood up and said.
"Oh, Deng Jie, okay, then you come first. The policy essay you wrote for the big exam is about education, and it talks about it very profoundly, but now the people are still martial arts, and people with a little talent are scrambling to cultivate, thinking that this is the best way to become stronger, and reading and studying are the helpless choices made by those who have no talent, if you were asked to write an article exhorting the people to study hard, how would you write it?" asked the king.
Deng Jie nodded, began to think concentratingly, a quarter of an hour was fleeting, Deng Jie opened his mouth and came: "The gentleman said, you can't learn." Green is taken from blue, and green is blue, ice, water is for it, and cold is for water. ”
Just a beginning, the eyes of the king, the prince and the four accompanying examiners lit up and showed great interest, and even the prince Tan Qianqi sat up straight and listened carefully.
Deng Jie's exposition is very simple, that is, to use Xunzi's "Persuasion" as the foundation, and slightly modify it to make it more in line with the specific actual situation of the Mayan Dynasty, and Deng Jie uses the whole "Persuasion", not just the short paragraph excerpted in our high school textbook, which is thousands of words.
"Therefore, the sky sees its light, the earth sees its light, and the gentleman is noble. Deng Jie's article ended, and she let out a long breath, and her chest was slightly undulating.
"What does the Taishi think of Deng Jie's article?" asked the king.
"Good. Tan Qianqi only said one word.
"It's not easy to be worthy of a good word as a master. Who's next?" asked Wang Shang directly, without commenting.
Next, several more students answered the king's question, but for a while, they definitely didn't think so much as Deng Jie thought, so classic, therefore, although Deng Jie was the eighth in the big exam, the performance of the palace exam was better than that of the person in front of her.
Xiaomei is five answer questions, Wang Shang knows that the essay she wrote in the big exam discusses the importance of developing the economy, so let her talk about the importance of agriculture.
"The holy king is above, and the people are not hungry, but they can not plough and eat, and weave and clothe, for the way of their wealth. …… If the age is beautiful, it will be rich and happy with the people. Xiaomei is a casual strategy, the number of words is not as many as Deng Jie, but it is also clear and classic.
Sima Bu, who commented on Xiaomei's article this time, said that Xiaomei's views were even more thorough than those of the current officials in charge of agriculture in the DPRK and China.
