This year's Spring Festival is still the first one on the ninth day of February. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
On the seventh day of the second lunar month, the gate of the Tribute Courtyard was closed, and the people of the Ministry of Rites began to arrange the Tribute Courtyard under the leadership of Mei Shangshu.
That night, Xie Zhi'an received a few questions from Mei Shangshu.
The first big question
The people are incompetent; Towering, its success is also, and it has articles.
The second big question

The third big question
Endow the scholar with the first instrument to know and get the text.
The fourth question

The fifth question
Proposed Li Bai "When Tu Zhao Shaofu Fan Tu Landscape Song"
Sanjiang is both solved
"The Book of Rites and the Imperial System" is a Yin system test
Seeing these questions, Xie Zhi'an knew that this was the question of the examination of today's science and technology association.
Thinking of the words that came when the person handed him the sealed plastic envelope, Xie Zhian took out a piece of rice paper, picked up the pen and began to solve these problems on it.
......
February 8, the day before the spring festival.
"Mr. Meng Ji, how is this son's answer?" The second prince asked Li Mengji, who was in the study and looked at the scroll, a little impatiently.
Li Mengji was reading a scroll in his hand, what was written on the scroll was the questions that Xie Zhi'an had seen, if Shu Yanhua was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that the handwriting on it was Xie Zhi'an's.
After half a ring, Li Mengji put down the scroll in his hand and smiled slightly, "Your Highness, this son's knowledge is still good, but if he wants to win the first place in the examination among the judges, I am afraid that he will not be able to do it." ”
The second prince frowned, his face was full of displeasure, "His Royal Highness knows that this son can't be compared with Shu Rongjing, this has given him the test questions in advance, and he still can't make an answer sheet that can win the championship in one fell swoop." ”
Li Mengji smiled helplessly, "Your Highness, not everyone in this world is a Shushe person, and the Shushe people also studied under Zhou Daru, and the difference between this is not comparable to Xie Zhi'an, a kid of his age." At the age of eighteen, he has such a performance, and he can already be praised as a young and promising young genius, but it is a pity that he is unfortunately in the same era as Shu She.
Under the bright moon, how can the pearl of rice grains compete for brilliance?
Otherwise, why would we steal the test questions and let him solve them beforehand? ”
The second prince also sighed, "Yes, the pearl of rice...... Now, then, sir, please. ”
Li Mengji smiled modestly, "Your Highness is polite, Meng Ji also wants His Highness to have one more henchman who can walk beside His Majesty, this matter is related to our big plans, and Meng Ji is naturally obliged." ”
After that, Li Mengji picked up the brush on the bookcase, dipped it in ink, and picked up the pen and worked hard next to Xie Zhi'an's volume.
What is written on it is a better answer than Xie Zhi'an's problem!
After more than two hours, Li Mengji stopped, gently blew the undried ink on it, and then handed the scroll to the second prince, "Your Highness, it's okay." ”
The second prince took it and saw at a glance that on Xie Zhi'an's paper, some of the answers written by Xie Zhi'an had been circled and revised by Li Mengji, and some of them simply solved the problem in a way directly on the side, densely packed and filled with a whole volume.
The knowledge of the second prince has also been taught by the ministers since he was a child, and his knowledge is naturally extraordinary, comparing the volumes, a complex color flashed on his face, and there was dissatisfaction, regret, helplessness, and disdain, "Mr. is still powerful, after Mr. You have changed it like this, this son will try to win the championship in one fell swoop, and no one can compare with it." ”
Li Mengji smiled slightly, "It was His Highness who lifted me, and I deserve such praise from His Highness." ”
The second prince didn't say anything more, and after the ink on the scroll dried, he handed it to Li Mengji again, "Sir, I'm going to trouble you." ”
Li Mengji shook his head, took the scroll, carefully rolled the scroll on it, put it into a bamboo tube, and then sealed the bamboo tube with his own hands in front of the second prince, put on the fire paint, and then handed it back to the second prince, "Your Highness, let people hand it over to Gongzi Xie as soon as possible, tomorrow is the first scene of the Spring Festival, and he still needs time to memorize the above problems." ”
The second prince bowed slightly, and commanded in a loud voice, "Someone is coming." ”
The door of the study was pushed open, and a man with an inconspicuous face walked in respectfully.
"Take this thing and hand it to Xie Zhi'an, and tell him to memorize the problem above." The second prince handed the bamboo tube in his hand to his henchman, and the man took it, and with a silent fist, it quickly disappeared in the eyes of the two.
Li Mengji also stood up and bowed his hand to the second prince, "Your Highness, if there is nothing else to do, Mengji will go back first." ”
The second prince bowed slightly, "Mr. Hard, there is nothing else to do here for His Royal Highness, just go back." ”
Li Mengji made another move, and then left.
......
Xie Zhi'an, who received the bamboo tube, checked the bamboo tube and found that the bamboo tube had not been opened, he scraped the fire paint with a knife, and then took out the scroll on it.
Seeing this small ink spot, Xie Zhi'an was relieved, this was indeed a scroll made by his own hands, and the mark he specially made was still on it.
Then he began to read the papers. At first glance, he found that there were many traces of alteration on his paper, and he was suddenly dissatisfied in his heart, he felt that he had done a good job of solving the problem, why did he have so many corrections on it?
It's just that the more he looks at it, Xie Zhi'an's face becomes worse and worse, naturally not because he feels that he is too good, on the contrary, the problem solved by the person who corrected it is much better than his, which is the reason why he looks bad.
It turned out that in the eyes of the person who corrected it, the class had an axe. It was very uncomfortable for his self-esteem.
I closed my eyes, and after a while, I continued to open them, and soon I began to look at the problem on it again, and argued with each other that I had done with what the man had done, and then threw away what I had done, and began to memorize the paper made by the man on it word by word.
After confirming that he had memorized it, Xie Zhian closed his eyes and began to silently recite the above questions in his heart.
Then, after meditating in his mind, he spread out a piece of rice paper again and began to write silently on it.
When he stopped writing, he looked at the neat handwriting on it, and then took out the paper that had been corrected before, compared them one by one, and confirmed that not a single word was written incorrectly, and he was very satisfied.
He raised his voice and commanded the little man who was waiting outside, "Bring a brazier and come in." ”
Soon the little guy brought the brazier in, Xie Zhian waved his hand, and the little guy retreated again.
He took out the fire fold and lit the scroll he had made himself, whether it had been corrected or had just been written silently, and it was reduced to ashes in the brazier.
The uncertain light reflected on his face, and he clearly saw the smile on the corner of his mouth.
