The next day, Tang Wan went to Rongshoutang to say goodbye, not wanting to see everyone in the Tang family gathered together, very solemn XshuOTXt.CoM

Is it a family meeting?

When the Tang family encounters a major event, they will get together like this to discuss, of course, things that are not suitable for children will drive Tang Yunxiao and Lin Jiafu away, not to mention bullying children, the Tang family's affairs have always been done like this, no, I didn't see the two of them at this time.

"Hui Xian, come and sit!"

Cui Shi greeted Tang Wan, and Tang Wan obediently walked over and sat down.

Tang Cheng was silent for a while, and said: "Your eldest brother is going to end this year, this is the second time he has left, last time he was outside the top three, this time he studied for another three years, I don't know what the situation is." ”

In fact, what Tang Cheng really wanted to ask was Tang Yu: Are you sure?

But he learned the lesson of the last time, before the last exam, he raised his face every day, urged Tang Yu from morning to night, used his own experience to bet on the questions, and discussed with Mr., and let Tang Wan do a room of questions half a year before the exam, from the four books and five classics of the family and the country to Cheng Zhu Lixue.

Speaking of which, the imperial examination system of the Song Dynasty was reformed many times by the Jin State, and it has tended to be perfected, and most of the examinations in later generations refer to the Song Dynasty, and even the methods to prevent candidates from cheating were invented in the Song Dynasty.

For example, for the sake of fairness, ask someone to copy the candidate's test paper, everyone is in the same handwriting, pasting the name, and the person who corrects the paper can't always see whose handwriting is more points, right? However, the manpower and material resources of this move are enormous.

Every time the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette are under great pressure, who can withstand such a toss?

Transcribe so many test papers across the country, and you have to write handicaps! Therefore, there are a lot of people invited, and they have to pay for food and lodging and silver, and the imperial court can't stand such expenses, so they change the imperial examination from once a year to once every three years......

Not only in form, but also in terms of content, the imperial examinations of the Song Dynasty also had many changes compared with the previous dynasties.

In the eighth year of Xining, Song Shenzong ordered the abolition of poetry, pasting scriptures, and Moyi scholars, and issued Wang Anshi's three classics of new righteousness and treatise, and taking scholars, and called the Yiguanyi poetry scriptures and scriptures and Zhou Lili Ji as the Great Classics, and the Analects of Mencius as the Classics. It is a must-read for those who are taking the exam. It is stipulated that there are four Jinshi examinations: one for the Great Classics, two for the Classics, three for the Theory, and the last for the Strategy. The palace examination is only a test of strategy. Limited to more than 1,000 words. Since then, it has become the customization of the imperial examination and has been used.

Although the imperial examination of the Song Dynasty was not as high as the gold content of the Tang Dynasty, it was difficult to take the Jinshi of any dynasty and generation.

"Daddy. I'm not sure! Tang Yu had a bitter face.

Tang Cheng's face was stern: "I'm not even sure about the top three?" "It would be bad if that happened!

Tang Yu's face was full of frustration: "The top three should be able to enter, but I'd rather not be on the list!" With the birth of the same jinshi, it will be difficult for me to go in the future! If you are lucky, you may be able to win, but if you are unlucky, then there is no play, I dare not bet. ”

"Yes, with the same Jinshi, how can you really follow up with the same Shi? Just like Mrs., like Mrs. But after all, it's not a real room, who wants such a background? A little bit of the name of Mrs., that is the concubine, no matter how you straighten it, you can't get on the stage, who can look up to you? Cui Shi said on the side.

What is this metaphor?

Tang Wan was speechless, Tong Jinshi is Mrs. Ru? Hehe! She understood something.

"Ahem!" Tang Cheng coughed twice and continued to say to Tang Yu: "Since you know such a situation, then you have to work hard, if you really get to the top three, you will be given the same jinshi." It's better to wait another three years to get back to the second grade! ”

"Sir!" Cui Shi was anxious and shouted: "Yu'er has been waiting for three years, how old is he after waiting for another three years!" There are several three years in life, and three years are consumed one by one. It's over in a lifetime! ”

Liu kept nodding her head on the side, this was what she wanted to say, but she didn't dare to openly refute Tang Cheng's words, it seemed that she was disrespectful to her father-in-law.

"Father, Mother is right. In the past three years, my husband has been working hard. The concubines all saw it, and finally waited until the exam started, and it would be a pity if they gave up even the opportunity to give it a try! Liu expressed his opinion euphemistically, Tang Yu really worked hard, she was a little distressed when she saw it, people have lost weight in the past three years!

Tang Cheng frowned: "I also want him to play, but he is not sure." If you really give a fellow jinshi back, are you satisfied? ”

Of course not! Cui's Liu unanimously showed such expressions.

"Dad, why don't I think about it again?"

Tang Yu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, the family was worried about his affairs, but he couldn't give a happy answer, Tang Yu felt that he was very useless!

"Then think about it, Mr. Jianyi, you wait for the time being, he said that with your diligence, the chances of studying the second class in another three years will be much greater, I think so too!"

Tang Cheng made his final speech in conclusion.

Tang Yu nodded: "Hmm!" ”

Cui Shi wanted to say what he wanted to say in the end, but he didn't say it, he looked at Tang Yu worriedly, and Liu Shi on the side also looked at Tang Yu cautiously, and the atmosphere was silent all of a sudden.

Tang Wan broke the silence: "That's it, I'll count a hexagram for my eldest brother!" If the result is good, then the eldest brother will go, if he can't ask for it, he will wait for three years! ”

Liu first retorted: "How can this work? ”

How can such a big matter be decided in such a child's play, Tang Wan is really out of tune, joking about her eldest brother's future!

Cui's disagreed: "Hui Xian, don't mess around!" ”

Tang Wan looked at Tang Yu: "Big brother, what do you say?" Anyway, it's all gambling, just like my mother said that there are several three years in life, whether you can win or not, it depends on God's will, in case you still don't win after three years, isn't it in vain that you have been delayed for three years? Father, what do you say? ”

There was a sense of this, and the people in the room were silent.

"Okay, that's a trigram!" Tang Yu slapped the table and said impulsively.

Tang Chenghu grimaced: "You are really a gambler!" If you have such an indomitable energy when you are studying, are you afraid that you will not be able to pass the second grade? ”

Tang Yu's face was sneering when he heard this, and he lowered his head a little ashamedly.

Liu's face is also very ugly, her husband is disgraced, how good can she be? Even if it's all a family, it's all about face!

"Then I'm going to do it!" Tang Wan untied the copper coin around her neck, as solemn and solemn as every hexagram, concentrating, emptying her mind, and having no distracting thoughts.

"Determine the future, know yin and yang"

The copper coin landed, and the hexagram became!

Tang Wan studied for a while and said, "Big brother, you go, the shape is good, although it doesn't have a good ranking, it can be at the end of the second class." ”

Tang Yu asked in disbelief, "Really?" Is it accurate? ”

These words sounded everyone's hearts.

Liu's will be skeptical, Cui's will not believe it, and Tang Cheng will not be committal. It's just that Tang Wan is joking.

Tang Wan smiled: "Really! My hexagrams are generally quite accurate, and my eldest brother will know when he goes! ”

"Then, go ahead!" Tang Yu said with a little hesitation,

Tang Wan's behavior finally became a boost for him to take a step. Let's do it, gamble, life and death are rich and noble! Tang Yu suddenly had a single-minded mentality, fight! To be continued.
