Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Entrance Examination Begins

After jumping over the dragon gate, the first thing Lu Jing saw was the Mingyuan Building located in the middle of the road.

If the frost is severe, see Toast prostrate and low, and the crowd will be overwhelmed.

The same month as the lap period, I like the characters of the country here, and I can see it at a glance.

Mingyuan Building is the tallest building in the whole Gongyuan, its name comes from the "University" in the "cautious pursuit of the distance, Mingde returns to the thick", the figure on it flickered, observing the every move of everyone in the Gongyuan.

Lu Jing looked north, and in the middle was a very majestic building, with three ink characters on it: "To the public hall".

The public hall is the office of the staff who are responsible for the discipline of the examination room, the invigilation and the processing of examination papers.

Further north is Jukui Hall, which is the place where the examiner and the eighteenth room are divided into rooms to review the examination papers.

After Lu Jing stopped for a while, he walked along the road to the examination room on the south side and found his examination room.

After seeing Kaoshe, Lu Jing was overjoyed that he was assigned to the "old number".

According to the location and size of the test room, we divide it into four types: old number, bottom number, small number and seat number.

The old number is in the center of each row of houses, and the position is the best.

The bottom number is next to the toilet in each row of number houses, and the position is the worst, vomiting and dizziness, and it is difficult to sit and lie down.

The trumpet is a very small size of the house, the eaves are at the eyebrows, the width is not allowed to sit, and the house is not limited or ridged.

The seat number is a very dilapidated number building, with a rainy and windy structure and a continuous structure.

After Lu Jing entered the examination room, he began to organize the things in the examination room, a stool, two wooden boards, three candles, a charcoal basin, and a few charcoals.

Two of the planks are desks during the day and planks at night, and charcoal is available in limited quantities due to the large number of candidates.

After Lu Jing carefully cleaned the test room, he took out the aromatherapy ball from the examination basket, lit the lily incense, and hung the aromatherapy ball in the corner of the wall to drive away the odor in the examination room.

Then the stove is raised, the prepared breakfast is warmed up, and breakfast begins.

After the meal, Lu Jing cleaned up again, took out the things to be used in the basket, and placed them one by one.

Not long after, a scribe took the examination paper and distributed it from room to room.

Lu Jing rested for a while, and after recuperating his spirit, he took off the exam bag, took out the exam papers, and carefully read the three questions and four book questions and test poems in the first session.

Normally, the four questions of the examination are all propositions of the emperor himself, so these three questions are also the top priority of the examination.

Lu Jing browsed it, and the three questions were:

1. "Analects": There is a way in the world, and the government is not in the doctor; If there is a way in the world, people will not discuss it.

2. "University": The so-called Qi Qi family is cultivating his body, and the people are loved and refuted, and the depraved and evil are refuted, and the reverence is revered, and the laziness is refuted. Therefore, those who know their evil and know their beauty while evil are rare in the world.

3. "The Mean": Shun Qi Dazhi is also with! Shun is easy to ask and observant. Conceal evil and promote good. Hold on to both ends of it, and use it for the people. Qisi thought it was Shunhu!

The trial poem is: a five-word and eight-rhyme poem of the word "sky" endowed with "the end of the lake".

After reading the title, Lu Jing began to think, and the first question was from Confucius's "Analects of the Season".

The original text is: "If there is a way in the world, then the conquest of Lile comes from the Son of Heaven; There is no way in the world, and the conquest of Lile comes from the princes. Since the princes, Gai Shi Xi is not lost; Since the doctor, the fifth generation is not lost; The courtiers are in charge of the country, and the third world is not lost. If there is a way in the world, the government is not in the doctor; If there is a way in the world, people will not discuss it. ”

It means: the rise of the royal road in the world, the formulation of the ritual system and the order to send troops to conquer are all issued by the Son of Heaven; The world is domineering, and the formulation of the system of etiquette and the order to send troops to conquer are all issued by the princes.

The decree was issued by the princes and lasted until ten generations of people died; The decree was issued by the doctor, and it was difficult to continue for five generations; The doctor's retainers controlled the dynasty, and it lasted until three generations and then declined.

If the world is on the royal road, the power of the country will not be in the hands of doctors, and if the world is on the royal road, ordinary people will not talk about whether there is a way or not.

When Lu Jing thought of this, he understood that the power in the hands of the emperor was not highly concentrated, and he was checked and balanced by the powerful and ministers, and his control over the provinces was insufficient.

The second question is from Chapter 9 of "The University", and the main meaning is: to manage the family and clan well, we must first cultivate ourselves, because people will be partial to their own families, those who dislike themselves will have favoritism, those who fear themselves will be biased, those who sympathize with themselves will be biased, and those who despise themselves will be biased. Therefore, very few people can love someone and see their shortcomings, and hate someone and see their strengths.

Lu Jing explained the relationship between a person's achievements and family background and family style.

The third question is from the sixth chapter of "The Mean", which means that Shun is open to speech, accepts suggestions, is good at analysis, and has great wisdom. He acts to hide the shortcomings of others and promote their strengths. He has a grasp of both the opinions of the past and the under, and can adopt them, and apply appropriate policies to the people.

Lu Jing solves the problem with a balanced way, and then undertakes the topic, starts to speak, enters the topic, starts the shares, middle shares, back shares, and bundles of shares.

After answering the three questions and four book questions, Lu Jing immediately completed the five-word and eight-rhyme poem.

The vast world is empty, and the white clouds among the pines are idle. Qing Lai Yao corresponds, and it is appropriate to Pei Pingchuan.

Leave the sky and face the top of the cloud-crowned mountain. The four seas are wet, and the year of singing is struck.

The exam for three consecutive days was very difficult, especially the limited fire and coal in the Gongyuan, and many people were cold.

After Lu Jing finished the first game, except for being a little mentally tired, everything else was fine, mainly because the warmth measures were sufficient.

But he knew it wasn't the time to relax, and there were two six-day exams to come. If this breath is discharged, it will affect the next exam. Then he made his bed, had a good rest, and adjusted his condition before continuing to answer the second game.

The second session will be titled:

"I Ching" title: The sun and the moon are in the sky, and they can shine for a long time. Four times change, and can be long-lasting.

The title of the Book of Books: Its only Ji Shi uses a sword to face my country.

"Book of Songs" title: From now on, it has been.

"Spring and Autumn" title: Winter, will Chen people, Cai people, Chu people, Zheng people alliance Yu Qi (nine years out of ten years).

"Book of Rites" title: The Son of Heaven is destined to be a commander and a strong soldier, concise and handsome, and full-time meritorious to recruit injustice.

After Lu Jing saw the first question, he was overjoyed, he had encountered this question before, and he had also received Lin Ruhai's guidance, so he didn't think too much about it, so he started to answer directly.

After answering the first question, Lu Jing seemed to be like a god, and it only took two days to quickly answer the second one.

Then he had a good rest for the day, and then he began to answer the third game.

The third session is a five-way problem, which are:

Question: The major events of the country are in the ceremony, and the great one in the southern suburbs is the first Wang Longzhi...... However, so condensing Hao's family, Zhao Hei rested, in order to chase the prosperity of Zhou, there must be a way. The soil is carefully perfunctory, and it will be transferred to the above.

Question: Confucius deleted the scriptures to teach, and Ming Zheng learned to be a lady, so the same morality and customs are also ...... Those who are still in the ancient times must have generalized in the middle. Let's not look at it.

Q: Learn from your prescription and apply it. A man of wisdom depends on the world. Those who are known for their wisdom may inevitably bear the burden of vulgarity, or use it for practical purposes...... Erdos firmly holds the talents to be tested, and is willing to evaluate the big end of the talent for me, and will take the test.

Question: "Zhou Guan" has clouds, and the deliberations are governed by government, but they are not confused. "Hong Fan" cloud: You have great doubts, and you are conspiring with the secretary. then the system is suspicious...... The husband wins the trust of the conspiracy, and there are many diseases, depending on the judgment, and the resentment is independent, and then the world's discussion is also safe. His writings are determined to say that the main country is the one who is in charge, and there is no need to attack in vain.

Question: Barbarian slippery summer, thieves and traitors, although Tang Yu was in his prime, he could not do without, and the noble system had a Taoist ear. The northern captives and bandits invaded my territory, causing the holy worries...... If you come here, there will be those who will give themselves and do enough. It spits out it to view the strategy of the world.

On the seventh day, Lu Jing was writing hard in the examination room, and suddenly heard a burst of exclamations outside the examination room, and guessed that some candidates should have fallen ill.

In the nine days of the examination, as long as the Gong courtyard is locked, not to mention that the candidates are not allowed to enter or leave, so the sick candidates can only be carried out and handed over to the doctors in the examination room for hasty treatment, but after all, the conditions are limited, and whether they can be cured can only depend on luck.

On the eighth and ninth days, more and more candidates fell ill, especially some older candidates, who were carried out one after another because they couldn't support it, and one of them was only a neighbor away from Lu Jing.

Lu Jing was answering the question when he heard a clang, followed by a commotion.

He has been practicing for a long time, and except for the secret regret, he has not been affected, but has become calmer.

On the ninth day, Lu Jing handed in the examination papers, and when he left the Tribute Academy, he heard the inspector of the Tribute Academy talk softly, saying that there was a candidate who was too sick, and when he was carried out of the Tribute Academy, only half a breath was left, and the doctors in the Tribute Courtyard were also powerless.

After nine days of tossing, Rao is Lu Jing is strong and strong, with kung fu and body, but also a little tired, and his body is also a little weak.

After coming out of the Gongyuan, he got into the carriage directly and returned home, and after getting out of the carriage, he was almost helped by Lu Lian and others to enter the gate.

Lu Zhiyu counted the time when Lu Jing came back, and had been standing outside the weeping flower door waiting for Lu Jing, at this moment she saw her brother being helped into the gate with a pale face, she was suddenly frightened, and tears flowed down instantly, while sobbing and asking Lu Jing about the situation, she cried and asked Lu Bei to ask for a doctor.

Lu Jing didn't expect his sister to greet him in the outer courtyard, so he hurriedly cheered up his sister and watched his sister gradually stop her tears, so she was relieved.

Later, I saw Yinglian also crying secretly next to her, and hurriedly comforted her a few words, and after everyone stopped crying, she entered the inner courtyard.

Entering the bedroom, although Lu Jing was tired, he was not sleepy, so he ordered the kitchen to boil some hot porridge.

Lu Zhiyu had already prepared the food, and hurriedly asked Luo Mei to bring the ginseng soup over and personally serve Lu Jing to drink.

It wasn't long before the doctor arrived.

The doctor has already learned from Lu Bei that Lu Jing has just participated in the exam, so he has a very good heart, he has long been surprised by this situation, after each big competition, many lifters are carried home, the light is weak, the heavy mental wear is excessive, the body is lost, the most serious is unconscious or vomiting blood.

After diagnosing Lu Jing, he found that Lu Jing was just overworked and a little weak, so he prescribed a decoction to nourish qi and calm the nerves.

Everyone in the Lu family relaxed when they heard this, and Lu Jing also comforted everyone not to worry, he knew that his body was just a little weak, and it was fine, and he could recover after a few days of cultivation.

Yinglian personally boiled medicine for Lu Jing, and after serving Lu Jing to drink it, she stayed in front of Lu Jing's bed to take care of her.

Lin Daiyu has been paying attention to the news of Lu Jing, and as soon as Lu Jing returned home, she learned the news of Lu Jing's illness and was worried.

Especially thinking of Li Kun's husband Jia Zhu, who only participated in the township examination back then, his body couldn't support it before the exam was completed, and he finally fell ill.

Therefore, he didn't care about any etiquette, and under the guise of looking for Lu Zhiyu, he came to visit Lu Jing in person.
