Chapter 505 If you are good, you will be good to yourself, and if you are poor, you will help the world
Su Xu and Tan Xiu glanced at the candidates slightly, only to see that most of them were blushing and embarrassed, knowing that Guo Dan was not talking nonsense.
In fact, this is no wonder for these candidates, because the examination of Baguwen is very limited, and Confucianism is based on morality, which refers to people and not things, and they are accustomed to quoting scriptures, naturally, this focus is biased towards people, not things.
Therefore, as long as Guo Dan sees the names of people in the article and cites the classics, he basically doesn't need to look at it carefully, just stamp it directly.
"As for this book-copying maniac."
Guo Dan smiled first: "Seeing your answers, it is full of memories, because combining your exam questions is basically the Four Books and Five Classics." I have been reciting the Four Books and the Five Classics backwards, and you have successfully made me miss that simple and naΓ―ve time. β
β......οΌβ
I have to say that Guo Dan is really ruthless when he loses people.
Those people who eat melons are all shrugged their shoulders sharply, covering their faces and saying nothing.
The candidates sitting below all lowered their heads to observe whether there were any cracks in the ground.
The atmosphere was awkward!
Guo Dan sighed again: "It's a pity that the sage doesn't have the ability to predict the future, these four books and five classics, there is no record of Zhang Juzheng's reform, and I don't have a good evaluation of this, because I can't say that the four books and five classics are wrong, if you analyze it from this perspective, you are still very clever,"
"Haha.....!"
This time, everyone couldn't bear it, laughed, and begged Guo Dan, don't drive us out, we are innocent.
What pain and joy at the same time!
Guo Dan swept his eyes and said: "But you are still much better than those who are not qualified to take the test, or who retreat from the battle, after all, failure is the mother of success, and you have gained a valuable experience unscathed." β
The laughter stopped.
The middle candidates immediately raised their heads and confidently looked around at the people around them.
So far, this is the sentence they most agree with Guo Dan.
"Lick the dog!"
Suddenly, I heard Guo Dan say.
The candidates looked at Guo Dan again.
I didn't lick you!
I saw Guo Dan looking at the pattern on the canvas, and then he knew that he had misunderstood.
Guo Dan sighed and said: "The answers of this part of the candidates are not about reform, nor is it Zhang Juzheng, they are using reform and Zhang Juzheng as an introduction to lead to the greatness of the saint, and the whole article is full of praise for the saint, but I think the saint does not need to use Zhang Juzheng to show his greatness, this is an insult to the saint, your sycophants are all slapped on the horse's legs." Remember, if you become an official one day, don't use Guo Dan's treachery to show the integrity of your boss, it will make their career come to an end! β
Hate people!
Ironically, he didn't even let go of himself.
Everyone felt a lot better.
And Guo Dan's analogy is very appropriate.
This is actually a kind of inertial thinking at the moment, although Guo Dan reminded them not to speak on behalf of the sage, but where can they change it for a while, the result is full of words on behalf of the sage, how the sage views Zhang Juzheng, in contrast, how the Sage Confucius persuaded a certain king, as a result, Zhang Juzheng accounted for a line, and Sage Kong accounted for a large part.
In fact, some people are very cleverly written and very well combined, but is the reform a trick?
No matter how well it is written, Guo Dan doesn't even read it.
Because it does not have any operability and feasibility, after all, reform is not the specialty of Confucius and Mencius, and the reform is real-time, which cannot be completely based on historical facts, which can only be used as a reference.
"This last hypocrite."
Guo Dan sighed again.
The candidates in the middle all had an inexplicable sense of fear for Guo Dan's sigh, and when they saw him sighing, their whole hearts were pinched, and they were uncomfortable.
Guo Dan rubbed his face with both hands, and said a little tiredly: "I dare to use my life to affirm that you can't even write yourself, I'm afraid that only a saint can do it so perfectly, but you ask others to do it, this is a typical hypocrite." β
Li Zhen, they silently applauded Guo Dan in their hearts.
Guo Dan is ostensibly criticizing the candidates, but in fact he is satirizing the current literati.
"Aren't they all qualified?"
A person in the outer circle suddenly shouted loudly.
Everyone wakes up, and you criticize them as incomplete, isn't that unqualified?
Those candidates hung their heads unlovingly.
They have already given up on themselves.
Guo Dan said: "If you look at strict standards, it is true that no one is qualified, but I found that their mistakes are all roughly the same, so it may not be them." β
"Who's that?" One person wondered.
Many VIPs on both sides of the podium looked at Guo Dan with heavy eyebrows.
Because they all saw that Guo Dan was insinuating, as long as he dared to raise the issue of previous education, then they would definitely refute it.
But this is not today's theme, Guo smiled lightly: "I don't know this for the time being, I won't follow the crowd, but no matter what, there must be a reason for this, so I decided to lower some standards, as long as there is any paragraph in the answer to the question, the pros and cons of Zhang Juzheng's reform, even if there is something wrong, I will also give it a pass, then there are thirty-two candidates qualified"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes widened.
That is to say, more than 100 people did not cut into the pros and cons of Zhang Juzheng's reform at all, and those who are qualified are not necessarily right.
What is this test?
The melon-eating crowd looked at the group of candidates in the middle with suspicion.
Are you a herd of pigs?
What they don't know, however, is that this is the result of their coming to the test, because it is already their instinct.
"Hehe.....!"
A burst of contemptuous laughter rang out.
I saw Zhao Qinghe stroking his beard and smiled: "Regardless of whether you are reasonable or not, after all, the old man has not read their test papers, but you can't patronize and criticize others, if you don't give an answer, you will judge others to be unqualified, I'm afraid it will be unconvincing!" β
Cui Youli nodded and said, "Brother Zhao is reasonable, since they are all wrong, then what is right?" I'm waiting to hear and see. β
Guo smiled lightly: "Don't worry, you can't eat hot tofu in this hurry, I will definitely make your trip worthwhile and return with a full load." β
Cui Youli's expression immediately changed, and he said in his heart, could he have guessed the purpose of our coming here, since this is the case, then why did he .......
And Guo Dan didn't say much to them, and said aloud: "I said before, this is a class, the class is not used to read the grades, but to impart knowledge, if you don't learn any knowledge to go back, it can only be said that the academy is very unsuccessful, so the main content of this class is on Zhang Juzheng's reform." β
As soon as these words came out, the guests who had been asleep for a long time immediately cheered up, and they could be regarded as waiting.
Guo Dan did not criticize them from the perspective of reform, if this is the case, then today is really in vain.
"Before discussing Zhang Juzheng's reform, we must first make one point clear, that is, Zhang Juzheng proposed reform at that time, is it right or wrong?"
Guo Dan looked at the candidates with inquiring eyes.
A candidate stood up and said: "Of course it's wrong, Zhang Juzheng took advantage of the convenience of reform to play with power, persecuted loyalty, deceived superiors and subordinates, and used the public for personal gain, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a heinous crime." β
As Cui Youli, they nodded one after another.
But Li Zhen and others scoffed at this.
Guo Dan suddenly turned his head, looked at Cui Youli, and said, "Do you scholars also think that he is right?" β
"Of course." Cui Youli asked rhetorically: "Do you think he is wrong?" β
Quite a few people pricked up their ears.
You said!
Say it quickly!
"Tsk!"
Guo Dan gently held his forehead and sighed.
The candidate was angry and said excitedly: "Why are you sighing again, what is wrong with what I said?" β
Guo smiled lightly and said: "I can understand why you are doing this, in the future, you must choose the college carefully, the foundation is very important, if the foundation is deviated, then it will be over." β
"What do you mean by that?"
Cui Youli immediately stood up.
Guo Dan smiled bitterly: "I really don't know if I have a problem with my expression, or if your understanding is so fresh and eclectic, and I just pointed out this problem." What I asked was, was it right or wrong for Zhang Juzheng to propose reform at that time? You told me that Zhang Juzheng persecuted Zhongliang? β
He rolled his eyes and asked Tan Xiu again: "Mr. Tan, tell me, what is the relationship between the two?" β
As soon as Tan Xiu opened his mouth, Su Xu smiled first: "We are just here to observe, not to judge." β
Guo Dan bowed his hand: "Scholar Su is really a humble gentleman, and the younger generation admires it very much." β
Su Xu was expressionless.
Guo Dan obviously refers to Sang scolding Huai and sowing discord.
He won't be fooled.
Guo Dan glanced at Cui Youli again.
Cui Youli also reacted, and suddenly looked embarrassed, and secretly said that he was too anxious to catch this kid's way. He sat back shamelessly, as if he hadn't said anything.
Count yourself sensible. Guo Dan looked at the candidate again, and said calmly: "Let me ask this, is it right or wrong for Zhang Moumou to propose reform at that time?" β
"It's... I.... β
The candidate was silent.
Guo smiled lightly: "In the view of right and wrong that dares to love you, there is only Zhang Juzheng!" Sit down, sit down. β
As he spoke, he looked around expectantly: "Can someone give me an answer?" β
The VIPs on both sides glanced at the candidates in the audience.
Don't answer.
It's a trap.
"Hehe....!"
Guo Dan, who had been waiting for a while, suddenly laughed, "I apologize for misunderstanding you just now, you are all smart people, you are all my great masters, you know the answer, but you don't say it, why?" Because you know that you can't say that Zhang Ju is right, even if you know that he is right, you must say that he is wrong, otherwise, there will be trouble. β
The examinees in the audience were flushed.
Guo Dan changed his words and said: "But Your Majesty doesn't need Junjie now, because such Junjie abounds in the DPRK and China, what Your Majesty needs is a courtier who can solve the problem, no reform, no law, how to solve the problem?" β
Speaking of this, he said loudly: "Zhang Juzheng proposed reform at that time, of course he was right, at that time, the court was worried about internal and external troubles, and he couldn't make ends meet, if he didn't reform, would he wait for death?" No matter how bad Zhang Juzheng is, he can't be as bad as those who are good enough to be good and poor to help the world. β
"Well said! A good one is good for himself, and a poor one helps the world, wonderful! Wonderful! Haha--- what a pleasure! β
Hearing this, Li Zhen couldn't help it, and got up to cheer for Guo Dan.
Tang Xianzu and other Taizhou children also applauded Guo Dan.
All of them looked excited.
Even the crowd burst into sporadic applause.
Li Shizhen, who was standing in the corner with Xu Wei, wondered: "Strange, he is obviously wrong about this, how can it be wonderful?" β
He devoted himself to the study of medical skills and did not care much about the government.
Xu Wei said: "The sage is ideal, that kid is realistic, if you want to talk about it, that kid is really better." There was a hint of appreciation in his tone.
And although Cui Youli, Huang Daxiao and others knew that Guo Dan was insinuating and might be scolding them, they were not angry this time, but were very happy, but when you Guo Dan said this, your kid is dead.
Huang Daxiao is already thinking about how to write this recital, and this time he must kill Guo Dan.
Regarding the issue of Zhang Juzheng, Wanli did not dare to mess around, which was directly related to his dominance, and one of the important reasons why he was able to control power was that he liquidated Zhang Juzheng.
After Li Zhen and the others sat down, Guo Dan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "It can also be seen that the Holy Lord and the Empress Dowager Li fully supported Zhang Juzheng's reform at that time, which was an absolutely wise decision, there is no doubt about it." β
