Chapter 201: Another Twist and Turn

Be Xie Yuan!

Xie Yuan is the title of the first place in the township examination in ancient China, in the Tang Dynasty of China, those who raised the jinshi in the imperial examination were sent to the examination by the local solution, so the first name of the township examination was called Xie Yuan.

Our Song Tongkao is devoting himself to grading, every cell in the body is paying attention to the test paper in his hand, no one noticed that the examiner pushed open the door and entered the room, let alone noticed that the test paper he threw on the ground in disgust was picked up by the examiner, and naturally he didn't notice that the examiner didn't stop when he looked at Zhu Ping'an's test paper

So when the examiner pressed the test paper he threw on the ground on his desk and said the words "Xie Yuan", our Song Tongkao was taken aback, and he didn't react to what the examiner was doing, and when he reacted, our Song Tongkao was dumbfounded.

amazed

Song Tongkao once again confirmed the test paper pressed by the examiner in front of him, yes, it was the test paper that made him feel like he had swallowed Rexiang!

As a result, Song Tongkao, who was full of a sense of justice for the country, completely ignored the rank of the examiner at this moment, he got up from his chair, and the sense of justice of being responsible for the country filled his chest.

"Master Zhang, have you read this test paper?" Song Tongkao got up and pressed the table and asked righteously.

Examiner Zhang nodded.

Seeing this, Song Tongkao's chest cavity was like a bellows, and he asked again, "Then can you still say what you just said?" ”

At this time, the examiner who was reading the papers next to Song Tongkao couldn't help but pull Song Tongkao's sleeve and whispered to persuade something, but our Song Tongkao shook his head firmly. Song Tongkao is known for being conscientious and responsible in the local area. Dare to fight, for fighting. Good at fighting, no matter who the other person is. What status, as long as you think it's wrong, you have to bravely rush forward and open the battle door! This time, too.

"This article doesn't point to Xie Yuan, the old man is ashamed of the double saints!"

Regarding Song Tongkao's reaction, Examiner Zhang did not think that he had lost, on the contrary, he still had some appreciation, but appreciation was appreciated. You Song Tongkao has your own principles, so I don't have my own principles? So, Chief Examiner Zhang nodded again.

"Please forgive the official for being rude!"

Song Tongkao left the table and chair and bent down to say a word to Examiner Zhang, then picked up the test paper that Examiner Zhang pressed on the table, opened it, pointed to one of them, and asked with a righteous face:

"Lord Zhang, this article "The Gentleman's Illness Is Not Famous and Unworthy of the World", the title is 'There is no name for future generations. The sorrows of the saints', is this appropriate? ”

"And this one, 'Heaven is silent, earth is silent. People are always in the middle', crazy! The husband is the one who is constant, and the saint is also established! ”

"This madness. Please think again. ”

Song Tongkao held the test paper in his hand and argued with reason.

"Yes, yes. Not so! Chief Examiner Zhang shook his head, "Saints are also people." This article "The Gentleman's Illness is Not Worthy of the World" is very wonderful, and the title is even more wonderful, "The name of the husband for a time does not have to be there, and the name of the future generations cannot be dispensed without". The other one is even more wonderful. This person is not crazy, and he is also naked. ”

One insists on falling off the list, but the other insists on the point as the solution yuan, it can be said that one has eighteen floors underground, and one has nine heavens in the sky, and the gap is too big.

Moreover, the two examiners insisted on their own opinions, and neither of them convinced anyone.

Although Song Tongkao is a small official, he insists on his own opinions; Zhang has a high position in the exam, but he does not oppress people according to his authority.

There was a lot of controversy.

At this time, the door was pushed open again, and another chief examiner, Lord Wang, also came in. Lord Wang was alarmed by the movement of this room, and heard the movement of this room next door.

"Colleagues, what's going on?" Lord Wang entered the room, rubbed his hands, and walked over to ask.

Then someone told Examiner Wang the reason.

"Oh, what am I saying, let me see." Lord Wang shook his head slightly, walked to the focus of the dispute, took the test paper and looked at it.

Lord Wang nodded while reading, this test paper has been read for about ten minutes, and he has his own choice. However, Lord Wang was a seasoned officialdom veteran, and instead of directly expressing his opinion, he summoned the scribe who served and commanded:

"Thou, take this person's two or three test papers."

"Yes." The scribe stooped down, and after a moment took the two test papers together and handed them into the hands of Lord Wang.

After receiving the test papers, Lord Wang waved his hand to ask the scribe to step back, and then gave one of the two test papers to Zhang for the examination and one for Song Tongkao.

In Zhang's hand is the second test paper, the application essay such as the form of the judgment and the judgment, and there is no need for literary style, as long as it is in the right format with the officialdom application essay. Zhang's main exam originally belonged to Zhu Ping'an, and after reading Zhu Ping'an's second format, which was in line with the Wencai good test paper, he was naturally more satisfied.

Song Tongkao is the third test paper in his hand, and the strategy essay and the strategy question not only need literary talent, but also need to have goods in the stomach.

Song Tongkao read it very seriously, and the first strategy paper was good, but it didn't explain anything

When Song Tongkao saw the second essay "Seventy-two Sages of Confucius, how can a virtuous and virtuous person", Song Tongkao read it for a long time and couldn't help but nod.

And then go down, yes, yes, when I saw the treatment of the Japanese policy again, Song Tongkao couldn't help nodding again and again, and it took a long time to raise his head and look at the two examiners.

"Xiaguan has destroyed a pillar several times." Song Tongkao bent down and gave his hand and sighed.

Examiner Zhang helped Song Tongkao up and exhorted, "Song Tongkao is also responsible for the saint, so why bother." ”

Examiner Wang looked at this scene, then put Zhu Ping'an's three-point test paper aside, took a batch pen, and wrote a big "medium" on it.

After that, the marking site was busy again, marking, recommending, and grading, and all the examiners were busy in an orderly manner.

A few days later, after the marking was completed, the two examiners found out that the paper that they had favored was actually written by a thirteen-year-old boy.

"If I had known that this son was thirteen years old, I wouldn't have recorded it." Examiner Zhang sighed, quite remorseful.

"Why? Isn't this son talented? Examiner Wang asked curiously.

"This son is indeed a great talent, and there is no problem for us to choose him this time, but I think it is best to let him postpone the middle lift for a few years. Postponing him for a few years will make him more sophisticated, which will be good for his development. Examiner Zhang stroked his beard and sighed.

Although Examiner Zhang admired Zhu Ping'an's literary talent very much, he was worried that a teenager who had just turned thirteen would be promoted to high school, afraid that he would be proud and complacent in the future, and slowly lose his self-motivation, and worried that he would be ruined.

Chief Examiner Wang looked at Chief Examiner Zhang and shook his head, "It has been approved, and it cannot be changed." ”

"Brother Zhang, do you know that more than 60 years ago, there was also a thirteen-year-old boy who was promoted and won the first place in one fell swoop?" Examiner Wang looked at Examiner Zhang and asked.

Examiner Zhang pondered for a moment.

"That is Yang Ting and Lord Yang, who have made trouble for three dynasties and are powerful all over the world." Examiner Wang said with a complicated expression, and then said in a warning tone, "Brother Zhang knows how far this son will grow in the future?" ”

"That's it, I have to be more responsible for him, so that he understands the truth that there is no end to learning, let him know that it is not so simple to study and enter the profession, and let him not forget the truth of studying hard." Examiner Zhang said with a serious face.

"But we've already approved it, and we can't change it." Examiner Wang shook his head and said.

"I know, so I sigh!" Examiner Zhang nodded and sighed. (To be continued......)
